LITTLE THINGS
That Sometimes Declde a Man's Fate In
Tu incss,
The truth of the saying that little,
things may citen times play an im-
portant part to men’s affairs when the
men least expect it was illustrated one
day recently. that young man;
over there,” re vrked an insurance
friend of his, pointing to one of his,
clerks working away industriously at a
desk in another room. “Well, he got
his place in my office through the strik-
ing of a match, although he doesn’t
know it. 1 was standing at the en-
trance of this building about a month
ago, waiting for a friend to come down
the elevator, when that young man
approached me with a letter of recom-
mendation and an application for em-
ployment. I had made it known a few
days befere that I needed another clerk
and he had heard of it. However, I
had almost made up my mind to take
on a young man who had been to see
me the day before, and was about to
tell the last applicant so, when he pull-
ed a match from one of his pockets to
light a cigar he had been smoking, but
which had gone out ‘Sorry, sir,” he
said, balancing I:'acelf on one foot,
while he lifted the other so as to ad nit
of his striking the match on the heel
of his shoe. ‘Sorry, for I would like
very much to work for you, and I think
I would have made you a good clerk.’
The mat:h-scratching incident made
me think so, too. Right at the young
man’s elbow was a great Italian mar-
ble column,upon which were the marks
showing where many matches had been
struck by vandals too utterly indiffer-
ent to the rights of others to refrain
from indelibly stamping their vandal-
ism upon property to restore which
would have cost hundreds of dollars.
It would have been the most natural
thing in the world for many a man to
have scratched that match on the mar-
ble column, and the fact that this
young man chose to use the heel of his
shoe instead showed that he was
thoughtful and conscientious, two very
excellent traits. I was so impressed
that I told him to come and see me,
and the result of the visit was his se-
curing the position. And his month
in my office has shown that I made no
mistake in sizing him wup.”—Philadel-
phia Inquirer.

Scarcely had she begun to tell her
story, however, than I became so in-
terested that IT begged her to continue
and tell me the details as far as pos-
sible.
Miss Angell was engaged to Mr.
Cloud—a peculiar combination of
confessed with tears in her eyes that
his love was more, or had been more,
than life to her.
The rest of the story Iwill let her
tell in her own words,
‘Mr. Cloud,” she said, ‘is in the
habit of calling upon me almost every
evening, About a week ago he came
to dinner, invited by mamma. He
was to attond a supper of the Phoenix
club at 10 o'clock, and wore evening
dress.
‘‘At table we noticed an exquisite
shield pin he wore. It shone so bril-
liantly that it caught the eye at once,
Mr. Cloud took the pin off and it was
passed around the table for us all to
examine.
‘it was a shie!d as large as a quar-
ter with the outside edge bordered
with pure rubies, blood red, all of a
size and without a flaw. The centre
of the shield consisted of a large dia-
mond cut not very deep, yet too deep
to be sunken, so it was elevated in a
wire setting. Around the diamonds
were perfectly matched black pearls.
The combination was so unusual that
we exclaimed as we handle l the jewel
and I remarked that I had never seen
it before.
‘When we had finished examiving
it Mr. Cloud stil: “That is my Phoenix
Jiub badge. it Lelangs to the presi-
dent. When I wus elected the badge

deut comes in, I must give up the
badge to him. it is ths presideat’s
badge, to be owned by h m during his
term of o ice. Of course, it is ouly
to be worn at the meetings.’
“Mamma spoke of its great value.
‘Yes,’ said Mr. Cloud, ‘it is inde.d
very valuable. It is worth thousands.
If IT were to lose it 1 should feel
ruined, as I couid never hope to re-
place it.
‘As he spoke Mr. Clo:d’s face be-
came very serious, ‘We had a case of

and committed suicide nest day. You
see he was suspected of having sold
it.’
asked to wear it, and in a fit of way-
wardness I reachel across the table,
took it up and put it in the bow of rib-
bon at my throat.
“At the close of the meal,
Cloud asked me for it, but T, to tease
him, said I meant to keep it, and ran
up stairs with it on. |

“Still,” T said, “I will do my best.

: | That same day I called on Mr. Cloud

have made a mistake.
Going first to the telegraph office, I
walked from there to the cafe. At that

door and they were bringing out the
soiled table linen.
An inspiration came to me, and I
| said to the driver: “How often do
| you take away the linen?”
| “Twice a week,” said he. “But
| this week we had a breakdown and we
| are late, and it's almost eight days.”
| As the driver started away I said:
| “I want to search that load of napkins
| and if you will drive them into that
| vacant Jot IT will pay you well for
| your trouble.”
{ Once in the lot I overhauled the

and laid the pin in her lap her joy
knew no bounds. Just at that mo-
