Daysey Mayme and Her Folks
So rnany In the office of Lysaniler
John Appleton were away on their
vacations that he was compelled to
take much of his work home at niffht,
and <jo it there.
Ordinarily Daysey Mayme didn't
notice how hard "Father" worked,
but when she wanted a favor from
him she was overcome with solici
tude for "Dear Daddy."
"Let me write that letter for you,
dear Daddy," she begged, "while
you re st on the lounge. Just tell me
what jt is and I can write It as well i
as not."
Her father told her briefly that it
was a notice to John Barton, of Pitts
burgh. Pa., that interest on the mort
gage was overdue, and unless he re
mitted promptly, the Arm would be
compelled to foreclose.
That sounded easy, and Daysey
Mayme, rejecting the business station- :
erj' her father used, got out some i
marked with her own monogram, and :
began.
w "My dear Mr. Barton," she wrote,
"my name is Daysey Mayme Apple- |

The Light of Faith
The faith that keeps on fighting is the one
That Keeps on livings—yes, and growing great!
The hope that sees the work yet to be done.
The patience that can bid the soul to wait—
These three—faith, hope and patience—thev have made
The record of the years that swiftly sped,
Have kept the leaders leading, unafraid
Of what the doubters murmured lurked ahead.
The faith that goes on fighting, through the night
It notes the gleam of each far-distant star;
It sees the glimmer of the dawning light
Deep in the dark that shrouds the things that are.
It has done much—-this faith, serene and strong
Unmindful of the ashes of defeat;
But trusting in the right against the wrong.
Has been a trumpet call or drum's loud beat.
To place contentment in a nation's homes.
To drive out fear for cheer in children's hearts,
Js more than to uprear a thousand domes
Or dominate the world and oil its marts.
So who may know how well the race is run
Until we crown the victor soon or late?
The faith that keeps on fighting is the one
That keeps on living—J'es, and growing great!

It seemed to Broadway that th«
others mattered less. For Wallace hit
affection was so genuine that it inelud
ed an intense desire to hold the man'i
respect. Sighing with relief he called
the major domo to his side as soon ai
Bob had gone and whispered to him
that all glasses must be filled. Witt
the intense alacrity which the youthful
•Pendthrift's orders were everywhere
observed along Broadway, this was at
tended to, and he rose to his feei
iwith all the dignity he could command
v "Friends," he said. "I want to telj
you something. I want to tell you oj
any luck."
"Is it a hard luck story, Broadway?"
•Orneone asked.
j Er yes," said he. "I mean — 11
"Jackson!" said a soft voice (per
h»pe a little cracked) close at his sid«
{with something of reproach in it.
"For the lady," he hastily corrected
"Hard luck for the lady. I'm—l'm go
fag to be married."
The men shouted and there were
tnore than one among the ladies whe
Were seriously agitated, their numbei
heing co-equivalent to the number who
themselves at one time or another had
bad hopes of winning Broadway anc
his millions for their very own.
Everywhere about him rose the
Wiout: 'Who is she, Broadway? Name!
jKame!"
He swayed there on his feet, a some
What sickly smile upon his face, his
hand elaborately spilling champagne
on bis shirt front, a fact of which he
in ignorance and which no on«
noted for a time, it was Mrs. Gerard
*who called attention to it by elabo
lately dabbing at him with hsr hand
kerchief.
There were proprietary details ever
of movement of her bands and som«
ehrewd wits suspected for an instant

from them as absurd before it gained
firm foothold in their minds.
"Who ie she, Broadway? Name!
Kame! Name!" the shouts insisted.
"Guess!" said Broadway strangely.
He felt less worry than he would
have felt before he had imbibed the
last few glasses or champaen«- He
had been drinking very bu6ily since
the dreadful thought had been P"t intc

Perhaps—"
"No," he answered thickly. "Guess
again. Three guesses. It's going to
take some brains. I tell you that! In
tellect's the only thing'll do it. Who
ever guesses right gets a cigar."
There was only one among the
ladies present who was not favored
by some speculative mind, and that
one was the right one.
Guesser after guesser named some
of the young and vivid creatures of
that almost wholly young and vivid
feminine company, nope guessed the
only faded flower in the gay group.
Broadway, never dreaming of the ag
ony which filled the faded flower's
much powdered bosom because of the
omission of her name, feeling few emo
tions, really, other than the keen sen
sation of relief from his financial wor
ries, stood smiling somewhat vacantly,
but, on the whole, without much pain,
upon the puzzled party.
"Go on, guess with your brains," he
genially suggested. "It's mind, not
foot-work, that will win the prize."
But none guessed.
Realizing that in this was something
like reflection on her fitness for the
covetable position of consort to the
youth, Mrs. Gerard attracted every
one s attention, presently, by a won
derfully feigned embarrassment as she
rose and stood by Broadway's side.
The party gaßped, but rose to the oc
casion as soon as it could get its
breath again. It was incredible, and
there were thoee among the guests
•who were so sure of this that they
believed a joke was hidden somewhere
In the episode, but the majority were
so well trained to Broadway's genius
for producing mad extravagance that
they simply charged this up as one of
them.
A dancer who had been brought up
from the cabaret below after one
o'clock and closing time had come,
sprang lightly to a table, and, to the
destruction of the floral lobster and
some notably fine glassware, did a gay
pas-seul among the wrecks of sangui
nary shells and emptied bottles,
head waiter smiled, knowing that
whatever might be broken would be
charged up in the bill at double value
and paid for without question by the
sensational spendthrift, to whose own
wealth was now linked the extraordi
nary fortune of the recent John Gerard
(wholesale leather) who had made his
millions, married a very vital lady
of his own ripe years and then died of
sheer antiquity, to leave her, trium
phant In superior vitality, relict and
craving for that gaiety which life with
him had not provided.
"Broadway!" breathed the ancient
lady with a skillful simulation of em
barrassment. "You naughty, naughty
boy!"
"Naughty, possibly; but how ex
tremely lucky!" said the wholly un
expected bridegroom-elect without a
quiver, much to his own surprise and
se If-congratulation.
As it broke up the party rioted with
joy, very largely alcoholic. Mrs. Ge
rard's car. when it came up from its
hiding place around the corner, was
straightway encumbered with the
flowers from ladles' corsages, table
bouquets and.men's boutonnieres. One
enthusiast thrust In a potted palm,
and Mrs. Gerard screamed when she
sat on it. Another made a thoughtful
contribution of two lobster-claws
which, to his astonishment, he had
found in his hands as he arrived upon
the sidewalk. A lady, being under the
Impression that the wedding had been
celebrated while she briefly napped up
at the table. Insisted upon throwing

Insisted, missed Mrs. Gerard's coiffure
by a quarter of an inch and then burst
into tears.
Four yellow government notes were
placed in circulation in police circles
before the long and rangy touring cai<
reached the granite archway which in

the bachelor apartment in which Ran*
kin waited for him, sleeping, but with
one ear open for the riot which
quently attended the home-coming of
his master.
The car had scarcely come to a
standstill before both eyes were open.
And as the eyes appeared from their
snug hiding places behind fat lids, his
ears achieved astonishment. His mas
ter had returned at early hours on
previous occasions accompanied by
merry friends, but they had never
chosen as their happy, matin song, the
"Wedding iiarch from Lohengrin."
What could it mean?
Going to the window he craned out,
trying to see what was going on upon
the sidewalk, but the extending cor
nice underneath the window made this
quite Impossible, although the touring
car beyond the curb was visible. This
lacked interest, so he hurried to the
outer hall, where he stood near the
elevator shaft and listened earnestly.
Presently, as the group succeeded in
getting up the three stairs leading
from the sidewalk into the ground floor
hall, he caught a word or two of thick,
congratulatory talk.
" 'Sh'ou joy, ol' man," was the most
frequent of the crowding, earnest
words.
What could it mean?
As he heard the elevator door cloea
and the swift swish of the ascending

ment, there to linger, waiting for his
master, consumed with carefully mas
tered curiosity.
Devoured with curiosity he stood
waiting as his master entered through
the outer (Soor which he considerately
had left ajar for him. He had guessed
at certain details of his young employ
er's probable condition and knew that
in the midst of just those details
Broadway was impatient of latch-keys,
bell-ringing or even knuckle-tapping on
the door.
The first thing he noted as the un
steady Broadway entered was the fact
that bis silk hat had been reversed up
on his head: the second was that
someone evidently had been sitting on
his raglan cape while it had been
rolled rather carelessly; the third was
that his face wore an expression of re
lief and peace with all the world.
