THE DAILY STORY
I tfrt t inwt te omlpiitf
nun jji&xjjcj ijjitjaiKj
t(QBE here, James," said the old real eslalo
Odenler after he had listened to what yduriv
James Brighton had to say, "we can sum thl
thing Up In n nutshell. You and my daughter
Roso think jou loe each other, and you Want
to get married, Granted that It Is a match
mndo In heaven, you haven't a hundred do.lar.s
lo your name. You arc ambitious nnd willing,
but that doesn't pay house rent nor buy mutton
chops. I have no fault to find with you rts a
I man, but Until you have made headway In the
world, It will be ustleM lo hope fof my con
sent. Mnko r. start-get J5000 ahead-get pros
I pects, and then come to me."
"But, sir," pleaded the Joung man as hi
face went while, "Hose mid t are engaged." '
"Then you nre not as honorable a man cut I
Ihuur-.ht you."
"But we love each other as no two, people "
"llosh! If J oil love Rose as you say you do,
gel money to keep her from starving after you
nro married. As near as I can make out, yoil
nre depending upon me even to pay for the
license. Love Is all right In Its way, and t
would hne my daughter marry no one who
did not regard her as the only woman on
earth, but love has got to be fed on beefsteak
nnd potatoes to make It lest. Married people
have also got to have houses and furniture.
Your Income, James may I ask what It Is?"
"Twenty dol'ars a week, sir but I have "
"Expectations, of course. Well, expectation
won't satisfy the coal man or the landlord."
James Brighton's face turned from a dead
while to a vivid red. That he was a fine youngr
man everybody ndmltted; that he was Indus
trious and truslwotthy his employers asserted!
that he would some day have a reasonable
share of wealth was almost to be calculated
upon, but as a matter of fact, he hadn't stopped
to balance his tovo for Rose Henderson against
so much for expenses from week to week. It
did look ns If he was depending on the "old
mnn," nnd ns soon ns he realized It his natural
Independence of spirit forced him to say!
"You are right, Mr. Henderson. While Rose
and I are engaged to be married, I promise you
that we will take no further steps in that di
rection until I have accumulated at least MM.
Thank you for your kind words, sir, and good
day to you."
James Brighton had been doubtful ot the
result, but Rose not at all. She believed her
sweetheart had only to ask for her hand to
receive It with the father's blessing. For a
few minutes after hearing the answer she was
stunned. Then she quietly asked:
"Do you mean that we shall wait until you
have somehow managed to save 5000?"
"1 tqld your father so."
"And how long will that take?"
"Well, I'm saving at the rate of $7 per week
at pi-dent. Next year I hope to make It HO.
"And It will take ou. perhaps, 10 years?"
"Call it seven or eight."
They looked Into each other's eyes for a lorn
minute, and the girl hoped to hear him speak
of an elopement ot- a secret tunrrlage. Seven
or eight years was an eternity. The young
man was an ardent wooer, but he was also a
man of strong principles, and he did not utter
the words' she waited for.
"And wo w'lll wait?" she finally whlspeVodrs.-
"I shall." he replied.
"And I "
She didn't finish. He saw her eyes flash and
her Jaw set, and he wondered If she hall a tem
per of her own after all. He had scarcely
made his departure when she was walking her
room with clenched hands. It was two hours
before she sat down to reason things out, and
when, nt the breakfast table, -she showed no
sign of a broken heart, her father whispered to
his plate:
"Rose Is either the best of daughters and
ought to have a diamond ring 'for this, or she
has some little scheme to spring on me. Very
Innocent girl, Rose Is. but she'll bear watch
ing." He should have watched her that very day.
Instead of making a Journey of 2 miles and
back to see a certain piece of real estate. While
he was tramping over the broad acres of a
farm and Inspecting buildings, she was talking
with a lawyer whose reputation was generally
referred to us "jliauy," i,a hunting up a quiet
1 carding lioim In the suburbs. When tho
father rear-lied lie me It was to find the house
in charge of an o'ci servnnt, and to learn that
the young mistress had been absent all .liy
TI1I3 waj lome'lilng so unusual that he ws.ii it
me nlarinrd, and as night came he cou'd
hardly bit still. The night passed without n
word f torn her, and he was making ready to
call for the assistance of the police, when a
note from Rose waa shoved under the front
door hy n boy who rang the bell and ran away.
The note read that she had been kidnapped and
was being held for JT0O0 ransom. If the money
was sent to a ceilaln place she would be set at
liberty ut once; If not well
"I'll see 'em hanged first!" roared the father
as he rose to the occasion, "She's been kid
napped by James Bilghtou, of course, but I'll
have him behind the bars within an hour!"
The police found James Brighton easily
encugh, but he soon satisfied them that ha
. had no hand in the a.tali Naturally, he wa
even moie concerned than the father. He ad-
vhicd "no compiomlse," und for four day the
I police had charge of the case and worked
I every string they couhl grasp Second and
j thhd notes were received fioni Rose. She was
being will treated, but the money must be
paid or the kidnappers would become desperate
Day and night the father and the lover hunted
i In L-anipJliy, but the bold fellows hud covered
their trHoM too wel1. When the police av-
i knqwle-dgrd themselves beaten the raiuoni
inonej was forwarded, and three hours later
Rosj was hopiv. Never mind the tale shp tail.
