(Copyright.) jpn SPAYTH, young and energetic plumber, did two things shortly after his arrival in the city of Brampton. The first of these was to start up a new plumbing shop on Main street a couple of blocks away from John Jennings, the oldest plumber In the city. And the second was to fall In love with a bewitching blond who passed ^d's store each noon. Kd found, one day, that his business was Increasing so rapidly that he needed a girl to handle the office routine. So he called up the office of the Nation*! Business college and told them of his wants. That afternoon a girl appeared. And as Ed looked at her his heart skipped a couple of beats. It was the girl with whom he had fallen in love and whom he had never met before. "You're engaged I" exclaimed Ed, at length coming out of the trance Into which her advent had plunged him. "Yott can handle the work all right--r it's just plain stenography and a little liookkeepins and helping me to get ready for a big opening I'm going to have shortly. Lots of people don't know I'm In business here yet. and I'm going to put on an open house, with music and flowers as favors, and everything to get them coming. By the way. What's your name" « "Lillian Montgomery,"' the glrf re* piled demurely. Of course, with Ed as Infatuated he was. anything that Lillian did1 would have seemed1 right to'hlrn.. But she really was efficient. • Business was getting better with E<J now, and he found his hands full fir looking after everything and also ity. malting preparations for'the opening; 1 His plan was simple enough. It was. that of personally railing upon several hundred of the leading business men of the city and asking them to come to his store for the opening, and! of also getting the city health officer to make an address during the opening on the topic of right plumbing as*a necessity in making homes healthy. Ed was confident that his plan was a mightly good one. But, still, there was a little speck of doubt lb his* mind, which made ftlm refrain from telling Lillian what he had planned: If the plan went over well, then he could brag about It. If It failed to get the men, then the lieast said about it the better.. Ed was, without dbubt. heart and soul in his efforts to-make his opening a success. If all went well and He got a lot of business he'd be In a position to offer marriage to the one girl Jn the world'. But fate was agathst Ed in this particular:. A week before the dhte scheduled for the opening there was an accident. A heavy beam fell on Ed. When he finally came to himself it was to fitter that he was lying In a bed' in a private room In a hospital. A nearby calendar told him that he had been unconscious or only semiconscious for two long weeks. His opening date was past. He'd made a failure of it! Then the door to the room opened" and'Tllllan stepped' In. A startled' glance came to her face as1 she saw that lie knew her. "I--I failed on the openltig;" Ed mur' muted slowly. "It'll be a- hard' pull from now on.!*" But Lillian smiled' reassuringly. "Look at this!"' she exclaimed'. - She waved a bunch of yellow sheets in front of Kd, They were order blanks,' and on each sheet was an order--a good order.. "Why, why," gasped' Ed, T dont understand. "What does this mean?" "ft means that we put the opening over on the date you'd' scheduled it for,"' Lillian explained. "And the orders Just poured in."' "But," Ed expostulated, "bow did you get the men to come? I diiln't tell you my plan for doing that.** Lillian smiled at him affectionately. "I--I figured you dhTnt Vgfre quite the right slant on that,"' she explained. 'Tve felt alT along that it's the women .vou should Interest. Women ere really the main factors fn the great majority of plumbing jobs. So I invited all my women friends and dolled up the store with cretonne and served cakes and tea. And the women came and--the orders came, too, and I'm so glad. She smiled at him happily. Ed clasped her hands, and then he kissed her. ^ , "What I can't understand^ said Ed happily a few moments later, "is how you know so much about the plumbing business." Lillian dimpled and smiled a bit shyly. "I suppose I'll-have to tell you," she said. "I fell In love with you when I used ,to pass your store on the way to business college. And so when you called the college and asked for a stenographer I got them to send me to you. My family thinks I'm still going to business college. They don't know I've taken this job. And they don't know I'm working under the name of Lillian Montgomery. You see, I ought to know a lot about the plumbing business. I--I am a plumber's daughter I'm the daughter of your competitor, the maft you wanted to show you could make good. I'm the daughter of John Jennings. My real name Is LUJlan Jennings. I didn't tell you before, because I was afraid you wouldn't hire me If you knew, and oh, my dear, I did so Wiint to work for you!" And Ed kissed her again.
