she had made on the Christmas trade
that she regretted she had not be

business of her office management, at
which, it may as well be stated now
as ever, she showed unmistakable signs
of perfect competence, she went to a
complicated filing cabinet, extracted
from it certain other papers, carried
them across the room to the deek near
which he had found a seat, laid them
on that desk, then slowly turned and
faced him
"Do you know that Mr. Pembroke, of
the Consolidated, is here in town?"
the asked, after a second's hesitation.
To her great satisfaction, which she
would not for the world have admitted,
he did not hesitate before he an
swered ; he did not try to beat around
the bush; he Indulged in no evasions
or delays of any kind whatever.
"Yes, I know it," he said promptly.
It may be that some detail in his
tone or manner reassured her, at any
rate her voice, when she spoke next,
was free from a certain icy hint of
criticism which undoubtedly had crept
into it
"Did he come here with your*
"No; he followed me here."
"Have you seen him?" She mad*
no attempt to offer an excuse for
cross-examining him; she evidently
asked the question as an interested
party who has a right to be Informed.
Was she not a citizen of Jonesvllle and
an employe of the Jones Pepsin Sum
Company?"
"No; I have not seen him, but Ml*.
Wallace saw him last night and turned
down his offer, too."
Instantly the reserve, which, intangi
ble but perceptible, bad affected her,
dropped from her. Shs was no longer
in the least suspicious.
~V)h, I'm bo niaa she exclaimed
' cordially.
But he failed to note this clrcum
■ stance; he failed to ward against on
coming danger. As a matter of fact he
was not thinking of her as an employe
of the Jones company, he vi| not
thinking about Jonesvllle, he was con
sidering his own pressing need for
money and the delightful possibility
that through Pembroke, in one way or
another, that need must be relieved.
He rose and paced the floor with light
and hopeful tread, wholly without ap
prehension.
"We gave him to understand that we
wouldn't sell for less than a million
and a half." Ha said this half proudly.
Then, with the accents of a hoper:
"We expect him here at eleven o'clock
with his answer."
Her face took on a puzzled and dis
approving frown. "But you Just gave
your word to the men that—"
Now he spoke definitely and crißply.
No one listening to him could imagine
that he did not mean exactly what he
said; that he had not carefully consid
ered every meaning of each syllable
that he was uttering.
"Oh, don't be afraid," he assured
her. "I meant exactly what I said to
Hlgglns."
She sighed with real relief.
"I don't mind telling you, Miss Rich
ards, that when I came here yesterday
my Intention was to sell this business
and get it oft my bands at any price
or sacrifice."
The mere statement of this evidently
past and gone intention was a shock
to her. He noted, and not without
emotion —mind that; Broadway unmis
takably was touched—that her face
blanched at the thought of that which
he had definitely decided not to do.
The young man was beginning to
think; he was forming some faint
realization of the fact that his own
troubles were but Bomewhat unimpor
tant bubbles in a sea made up of
everybody's troubles. The thought
was forming in his mind that, while
he had been severely worried about
ways and means for getting luxuries,
these people, here In Jonesvllle, who
had lived and probably would die with
out ever having heard the names of
many of the things his sybaritlo soul
had learned to crave, had felt them
selves confronted by the possibility of
loss of the necessities.
Indefinitely, but for the first time In
his life at all, he saw how grim the
struggle for a bare existence is with
the majority; how, although they
strain and strive to their limit of abil
ity, they never feel quite safe in their
possession of the means for getting it.
He acknowledged to himself a feeling
of embarrassment as he considered the
undeniable selfishness of his previous
existence.
But he brightened visibly, as he
went on. He had learned his lesson
and had learned It thoroughly.
"Carnegie couldn't buy the plant this
morning," he said simply, "If ha of
fered every dollar he has in the world*
Mr. Wallace and I sat up talking It
over until two o'clock this morning. I
told him everything you said, and went
over the whole situation with him. I
promised to take his advlpo, and he'w
convinced me that the right thing to
do la to stick right here and put up a
light for these people, the same as my
uncle did."
Her reserve quite vanished; u la
the way of women, she took credit for
an Intuition which her previous mani
ner had not Indicated. Where she had
been suspicious of a reason for sus
picion, she became enthusiastic over
reason for enthusiasm.
"I knew you would!" she cried. "I
knew—l knew you would!"
She had not known he would; she
had feared, had half believed that he
would not; but that now made not the
slightest difference with her firm be
lief that she had known he would. Nor
had the fact that Broadway, a short
minute before, had suspected, with
good reason, that she seriously doubt
ed him, any influence whatever on his
deep pleasure when he discovered that
she did not —did not because she could
not, not because she would not.
Men do not think clear to the bottom
of these things. They take what wom
en give them, when they give them
anything, and are humbly grateful and
surprised because they get a smile
when they deserve one, rather than a
brick when they do not deserve one.
Nothing which the world has ever of
fered to the gaze of the philosopher
has been one-half so pitiful as the as
tonished gratitude of the right-minded
male when he finds that the one fe
male for whom he has begun, con
sciously or without his knowledge, to
live his life and do his deeds, does not
utterly condemn him when he has
done his level best and that best has
been worthy. Men are the world's nat
ural "come-ons," women the world's
natural vendors of psychological, sen
timental and often very raw gold
bricks.
So when Josie eoulfully declared
that she had known he would, Broad
way did not let It pass with an iraap
preciatlve, "Of course you did," but
looked at her with gratitude alight In
hli pleased face and humbly queried,
"Did you?"
For a moment the fact that she de
clared that she had known he would be
decent and not villainously selfish so
completely overwhelmed him (and
please do not forget that she, within a
minute, had admitted that she thought
him capable of basest selfishness) that
he oould not find words with which to
proceed conversationally. All men are
that way.
But presently he recovered self-pos
session and continued:
"Now, I don't know anything about
business, and I don't know anything
about money. I never did a day's work
in my life for the simple reason that I
never had to."
He looked at her with a shamed
smile, the first evidence that he had
ever shown of anything but pride in
his ability to live idly with enormous
and successful effort.
"The only trial of skill Into which I
have entered since I went from Jones
ville to New York has been a general,
endless contest with the world at large
to* see which oould stay up the latest.
I have generally won—won in a walk."
She was listening Intently. All wom

they are hearing any man tell his un
worthiness; if there is a hint of a con
fession of real wickedness in his decla
ration they will listen -with an absorp
tion which approaches a hypnotic
trance.
"I've never done anything good, be
cause I've never had anything good to
do," Broadway went on, before he
reached the next full stop.
She sat absolutely spellbound. Did
she feel a vi\#d hope that he would go
into detail of the things which he had
done which were not good? Such re
citals always pain good women ex
quisitely, yet they never shun them,
never interrupt them—never, by the
way, forget them or fail to have them
at their tongues' ends afterwards,
when, by recalling them, they can
abash the man who in a moment of un
guarded foolishness has made them.
But Broadway told no details of his
villainies. This was not brilliance on
his part; it was sheer luck.
If Bhe was definitely disappointed
her distress tfas more or less allevi
ated the next moment, for he burst
forth someVhat wildly:
"What I've needed ail along was an
incentive—something to spur ma on
'something to inspire me. What I've
needed was—"
He could not complete the sentence.
It was as if his tongue had found an
insurmountable obstruction in the
groove of language which it had begun
to follow and had to leap out to a side
groove. An expression of disgust j
grew on his face. He hesitated, flushed,
then reached his hand into his pocket
and drew forth the paper on which h»
had labored with such assiduity and;
such a tensely working, cheek manipu
lating tongue In the small hours that
morning.
"What I've needed was" —he once
more said, in desperate endeavor to
remember what came next, and, flnd
lng It impossible to continue with his
recitation, looked at her wild eyed, dis
appointed, self-disgust writ plain upon
hia face, and dropped his hands in
helpless and disorganized fashion to
his sides.
"Can you beat that?" he demanded
of the fascinated girl. "I knew that
thing by heart when I left the hotel."
Almost angrily he thrust the paper in
to her receptive hands.
"It took me hours to write that!" he
earnestly deolared. "Hours full of mos
quito-bites! I got up early, too, and
learned the thing by heart. But I
might have known that I'd forget It! I
never could remember anything."
She took the paper, glanced at it
with highly kindled interest and was
on the point of reading It when there
came an interruption. It was Sammy.
There ever ia a Sammy ready to step
In and spoil big moments in our lives.
"Are—you—too— busy —for — com
pany?" he asked deliberately and Ir
reverently. The imp, though fat, wan
quite cognisant of the fact that he had
come at the wrong moment, and his
heart was filled with Joy because he'
felt so certain of it.
"Who is it, Sammy?"
"Ma—and—Clara."

Philadelphia, Jan. SO.—Tho Rev.
Daniel E. Weigle, pastor of Messiah
Lutheran Church, who, although he
came from a theological seminary less
than five years ago, has taken a mode
rately successful family church and
made Its services so popular that late
comers find difficulty in obtaining a
seat on Sunday night, told the Congre
gationalist Ministers' Association yes
terday how he achieved his success.
"It was simply by introducing up
to-date business methods into church
work," sjyd Mr. Weigle. "It was by
carrying out God's work In an up-to

tolerate cheap stuff in their homes.
Why plam oft second-hand methods
on Jesus Christ?"
. Mr. Weigle said he had prominent
soloists from the city's leading musi

Church every Sunday evening. He
advertises their appearance by means
of newspaper publicity, billboards,
window posters and an extensive cor
respondence. The young minister su
