I heard of Miss Mary Scheit and of
her Illble class.
Ilefere I had a chance te ask her
my question, however, she answered It
in the most, natural wav In the world.
Fer when I said- "Hew well jeu

She told me with a smile that. ye.
she was wc'I. and mere than usually

added :

She said the study was a joy te her.
and se was the teaching. She had
never known sin- had it in her te be J

never been te Sunday school, and then
this chance came te hrr as though It
were taken for granted she could de it.
nnd very humbly she had accepted. Then,

holding her classes attention and win

thnt was the way it happened.

in the interval that fellows, Clee begs
Dick net te be angry at what has
happened.
The Darkest Heur
c
I.KO awoke te the sound of furi
eus wind lashing the trees outside.
Haiti dashed against the shingled reef of
the cabin, and sitting up In bed, still
dazed with sleep, she pushed shut the
casement window ever her hed. Then
I xhe lay down ugaln. .shivering a little
I In spite of tlie warmth of the bed
clothes. I
Oilfside It was still dark, and nlxe-
I lute silence reigned in the cabin. When '
! she bad dropped asleep there had been
1 a comforting streak of light under
her deer. It had come from the big
living-room he) nnd, but that light had
disappeared new, nnd. Inasmuch as the
' room was strange te her. she hesitated
about getting up te find a light of some
kind.
She wondered what time It was. Had
she been asleep Ions? Of course, she ,
had no way of telling. An hour or
two might have passed, or It might be
just before the dawn, which would he
late becnuse of the weather.
Suddenly slip thought of Carey. Had
Dlik gene after him ns lie had premised,
or was Carey still wandering around
out In the darkness somewhere, with
the rain falling en him, beating In his
face and the wind depriving him of
breath?
I Strange te say. although she found
It hard te admit such n thing, eren te
herself, Dick had seemed the stronger
of the two men thnt night. It had heen
Dick who had comforted her. en whom
she had leaned, while Carey bad vllt
illctiveh thrown her lit Dick's bend.
Her cheeks limned In the darkness as
she reen'leil these impassioned words
of Carey's just before he had plunged
out into the darkness. Hew lie hated
her. and new his hatred of her would
be stronger tlinn ever, because. Instead
of inenging Dick, ns he had planned.
i he had succeeded only In reusing Dick's
. anger against him.
I Hew splendid Dick hnd been! At
last he understood that she had never
wanted te hurt him, nnd hew fine he
had been te stand by her ! She would
never forget it, never ! She wished
vaguely that there were something she
i could de te make It up te him, but
1 even as the thought occurred te her.
It was borne In en her with crushing
force that he still loved Carey!
In spite of the fact that he hated
I and despised Iter; in siite of bis sneer
i lug gibes nnd cruel taunts, there was
hut one iniiu enthroned in her heart
He was her lord, her king. She would
travel around the world after him en
Iter hands and knees if lie wanted her.
but whetlier he wanted her or net,
she loved him, and she would go en lev
ing him always, no matter what hap
pened. The knowledge that sue still loved
Carey doubled ('loe's fears for him.
Suppose in hK mad recklessness of last
night, something had happened te him!
Suppose Dick hnd heen unable te find
him. and he was lying wounded and
bleeding somewhere out In the rain-
swept night!
Suppose she never saw
him again:
,t thnt thought Clee's
heart almost stepped beating.
If only morning would come or the
rain would step its monotonous beating
en the reef
walling lti t
f. or the wind would cense
he tiees in thnt eerie fush-
ion! If something didn't happen, she
would go mnd. She simply couldn't lie

I for the slighte-t sound, and the awful

ing In en her conscieu-ness. She blamed
herse'f new for having fallen asleep
last night, but her eyelids hnd seemed
i weighted down with weariness, and her
brain had been tee tired te go en think
ing She remembered thinking that she
would close her eyes for just n few
minutes. She would be sure te stmt
awake as seen as Hick returned. Hut
she had dropped off Inte oblivion al

The Humble Origin
Seemed Worse
Te the "Democratic" American
Preference Without
1
wyOU can say what you please,"
JL declared the student of human
nature, "but no matter hew people
talk, deep down in their hearts they're
all snobs, every ene of them."
Seme of us don't like te think se.
We prefer te consider ourselves dem
ocratic, above such petty things as class
distinctions nnd all that.
We realize hew people can Rny that
of ethers, but net of us, eh, no indeed!
Yet when it comes right down te
facts we're all pretty much alike, after
all.
The story of the Insignificant nobody
who came here from abroad tb make
money Is an apt illustration of our
collective snobbishness.
"lle came, this nobody, and had a
hard time as foreigners se often de,
taking any kind of work he could get.
Then some one discovered his abil
ity te leek well in geed clothes, nnd
te dance.
He began ns a professional dancer.
Frdtn there he rose te the stage, and
as mi actor mndc a hit.
Ills geed leeks mnde a great many
women sigh ever him and he became
very well known.
THEN dlwister struck; he married
a second wife before the divorce from
his first one became valid, nnd there
was much mere talk about him.
And the funny, variable, "demo
cratic" American public began te sniff
and turn up its nose nt the foreigner.
"Why. he's nothing but a bus boy
he worked In n restaurant '."
The fnct thnt he may be a bigamist
is nothing compared te that shocking
truth !
And the people who sny this arc the
people who claim pride in their log leg
cabin President, their self-made cap
tains of industry, their own humble
beginnings, and the fnct that In Amer
ica station and rank de net count !
FDOES Kccm te prove, ns the stu
dent of human nature snys, that
everybody Is at heart a snob.
While the actor was in the height of
his "glory" no one thought of his
origin ; If he hnd gene en te the
trlumphntit success thnt he heempd te
be headed for, democratic America
would have said: "Isn't he wonderful?
And te think that just n few years
nge he was working in cafes nnd doing
anything he could get te enrn his liv
ing. Oh, It's character thnt tells
leek nt the wealthy, highborn social
lights that are wasting nwny their
lives, when this peer boy has made se
much of himself I"
Yet he would still be the same young
foreigner, with just the same character
and personality, r
It Is chnracter that tells, but we
democratic Americans are all tee prone
te think that it's success which counts,
instead.
