responsible position and soon made tho acquaintance of many other young men to whom the city was a commercial mecca the new clerk was a pleasant fellow and had a taste far social lite but situat ed as he was uio social life had to be such as he could make for himself and that was not unnaturally the free and easy comradeship of ouier clerks almost without realizing it he found himself gradually drtfung into dlsslpa- atlon it was a social drink hen a quiet game of cards there and always cigar in uie mouth every moment that was not spent in business or in bed was given to things which at uic time seemed to him innocent enough but which were really undermining lib manhood after he had been in uie city a month or two he mot on old classmate of h from his home town a few evenings later he found himself in his friends room look lierc old fellow said uie friend i want to have a straight talk with you oo ahead said uic ouier pleasantly i will now wtiat have you got out here in chicago a

arc take another drink pos in j the cigars and be a jolly good el ow with the boys the young clerk thought it over ills cigar went out and dropped from between his fingers he saw two futures one full i of cose but ending in failure the other fraught with hardship but leading to sue cam he knew thr choice was hln 1 thank you old fellow he said at length i needed it at the tid of a week uic clerk was u member of an cvmliig class and had selected his church he gave up drink ing smoking cords and clubs and began to use the public library and to got back something of oldtime interest in books was surprised to see that be had dropped out of his vapid life as easily entered it nobody tried to draff htm buck nobody seemed to miss him in hits than nix monuis hln opportunity came nnd he seized it ten curn later he wits a rich man it was half past ave oclock and the baxaar was to open at seven uie par lors of the first church were full ol workers doing uu hundred last uilngs suddenly mrs

if ohy body ever tasted them but who buys sugar cookies theyll just be jolt on my hands nn uiey were last tune i hould think mrs decker would have taken the hint and not brought uiem again she put uic

her as the rich mrs ruuiven mrs ruuiven had just come to east port and won said to be as charm ing as she was wealthy i dont know juit what i want she remarked pleasingly unless are those sugar cookies afraid theyre burnt a little mrs reynolds apologised tho uic one who brings them hasnt very much to do with slio was ashamed of uic blunder ing wardo but it seemed to her uiat she could let those cookies go unexplained i think i understand mrs huthvcn replied is she here i should like to speak with her a moment j shes over there by uio bag table mra reynolds answered the one in j black she flushed a llltlo as she said it she had not realized before how wist ful and solitary mrs becker looked the tall young woman swept across uio room to uic woman in black i hope youll forgive my
