Honor Wilding, looking stendlly out K window of the city library, was see ing visions, nil of which concerned n yellow haired young man. Each vision was rose color nt the beginning and somber gray at the ending. That she herself was reasonable for the tinting did not alter the fact that Honor's eyes were wistful and her lips very near to trembling. She turned from the win dow to the readers, wondering aimless ly If any of them had had Ideals and were sorry. Finally her eyes traveled to the far ther corner, where were the newspa per files. There stood a man, his back to her. He was very shabby, but he had yellow hair, and he was about the height. Just then he turned a little and began tightening his belt. Honor heard the noon bells ringing. She had heard that If one were very, very hun gry It helped a little to gird one's waist very tightly. Poor fellow! Then he turned entirely around and took up his ragged hat. Honor dropped her mag azine, her gloves, her purse, her hand kerchief and her parasol and sprang toward him. "Why, Mervln Fairbanks, how glad I am to see you!" "Well, well, how my fame as a prophet soars! I said that you should not see me again till you would be glad of the sight. And how goes the gay world with you, Miss Honor Wild ing?" Honor expected him to shrink from her, ashamed of his apparent poverty, but she remembered he usually had done the unexpected. He picked up her belongings, and they went out. Standing In the shadow of the gray tone building, she lifted hesitating eyes to his. 4 ' "Will you come home with me, Mer vln? I want so much to know of your wanderings these past two years." She was surprised again at his quick eousent. She remembered Mervln Falr- "WHT, HKBVTN FAIHn'-KS, HOW GLAD I AM TO BE .OUT banks as -furiously proud of bis pedi gree, his good nami' ;md his appear ance. Whut eauld .'iie happened to reduce him to povert.v and to change his nature? ' "You expect to hear of Pali and London and maybe Egypt and India?" he asked after luncheon was over. To Honor's third surprise he had eaten very little. "I haven't been outside San Francisco until yesterday." Honor regarded him with reproach. "You never let me hear from you," she aid. "What was the use? You said It was all off between us. 1 couldn't be as philanthropic as you des'-ed, and I didn't like to pretend that I might grow to it, because I knew I shouldn't. How are your proteges?" Honor colored. "I don't know." Mervln smiled at her quizzically. "Did Bacagalupl rob your house, or Morlarlty take to the black bottle gain?" "Not exactly, but what I did for lliem didn't seem to last. Tbey were constantly expecting in- ?. I simply got tired of it all and stopped. Then I realized that It wag only a fad any way, like my cat farm and other things. I woke up one day to the real ization that Honor Wilding was deceiv ing herself; that she was oaly egotis tical when she thought she was char itable. I haven't had any fads since. I have been humble and miserable," she added under her breath. He smiled tenderly at her. "You were only trying your wings, little girl." She looked at him gratefully. "But, Merrlu. tell me of yourself, your your the past two years." tine wanted to ask him why he came to be reduced to so dismal an appearance, but she hes itated." "Let me see," be mused. "I asked you to marry me when you were eighteen. That was five years ago, wasn't It?" "Yes," acknowledged Honor, her heart beating furiously. "And you refused because you were anticipating a career, it was to be woman's rights, I believe." Honor, her eyes downcast, was twist ing her bracelet nervously. "Then when you forgot your speeches and had severnl unpleasant encounters with unpleasant people you decided thnt you were mistaken In your call ing." "Yes," said Honor again. "When you were tweuty-one I asked you to marry me. Then It was the cat farm. I think possibly yoti might have let me be a partner that time, only I ob jected to the cats. 1 didn't mind one feline pet, but I believe I used some emphatic language In regard to the farm." "You certainly did," answered Honor, smiling faintly. "The third and last time was two years ago, when the farm had lost ItB glory and Its cats. You were Honor Wilding, philanthropist, then. Yon told me If I would join forces and fortunes wKh you In your life's work that you would be pleased 'to walk mit me,' as your friend, the serublady. said. I couldn't see It that way, and you remarked that 1 loved myself bet ter than you, and so we parted." "I was unjust," murmured Honor. "I have been sorry many times." "I resolved to go away and forget you. I did the one, but not the other. I want you this minute more than I ever desired you In my life, and my eyes tefl me that you are not Indiffer ent. Ijtonor, my little girl, will you wait for me till I can come to you as a man ought" But she was leaning forward eager ly, her eyes suffused with tears, her sweet Hps trembling. "Why must you go away?" she plead ed. "Don't let a wretched matter of money part us now. We have lost five years, Mervln, and I have dollars a-plenty for both. Don't let your pride stand between us now, Mervln. For a moment he looked nt her curi ously; then he smiled, albeit his eyes were gravely tender, and he put his arms around her. "Pear," he said fervently, "I'm richer that! T3U Are tTVfce over, I've kept on making money these two years, just so I shouldn't think so hard. I was going to ask you to wait till I went to the hotel and nrrnyed myself In decent clothes before we plighted out troth. didn't, want you to feel as if a beggar were making love to you. I spoke of waiting, for though the tailor said ho would have them there by uoon I knew by sad experience that there might be a delay." ; , . "But Morvln, your clothes 1 don't understand." she gasped when she had recovered her breath. - "Well, you see," he began hesitating ly and shamefacedly, "Jack Bronson was on my train yesterday. He Is really trying to reform, and he wanted a certain position, but thought he was too shabby to make any showing. The man he wanted to meet was to be at the station, so there wasn't anything to do but go to the I'.resslng room and change clothes with him. Fortunately these, though ragged, are quite clean. I thought I would wear these a day or two. Just to Imagine tvhitt the fellows felt like when they wore down on their luck.. When you came to me I wns so hungry to see you thnt I simply had to co'.ue rags and all, May I go now, Honor?" "You are Mervln Fairbanks, philutl' thmplst.

The first ten minutes of play was well contested, the Bradford boy baviug a little the best of the argument, but the superior playing of the borne team was soon felt and after that the game was not In doubt. The R. H. S. has not struck Its gnit yet, for the team work was very ragged In spots and the goil Bbooting exeorable. The team is just getting started to practice rightly and in the next couple weeks we hope to show a wonderful improve ment. Evan's skating rink is a dandy place for a game of ball and we would like to see better patronage. There was a very nice, crowd at the Bradford game, but the team went in the bole about five dollars. As this has to come from each player's pocket, we ak you again to come and give us your support; for every loyal citizen should support the school. Line up. R.
