"Why, man, you might as well talk of the intellect of a plug of tobacco. I have read a few good books and a world of trash. And I have sat here in this room to do it when I should have been learning what was going on around me." Brown shook his head and smiled incredu- ' lously. "You always underrated yourself," said he, "but I know you through and through. You have a mind that I have, always envied you the possession_ of—keenln philosophical, but healthy and well balanced." Russell wondered what Brown would think if he knew the absurd scheme which had been evolved by the "healthy and well-balanced" mind, bet he was sufficiently philosophical to realize that every man's character is a sealed book to his friend no less than to a stranger. "I have always admired you as, a •content ed roan," continued Brown. "You are one of those who know how to live. You are never led away by chimerical hopes. The noise of the struggle for wealth never dis turbs your meditations. You will progress soberly to a moderate success in the affairs of this world, itnd every step of your way will be in the line of the strictest rectitude." "You knew that I had lost my position with Annett & Co. d" said Russell. "No; I hadn't heard of it, but I do not re- gard it as a serious matter. A man of your ability and character will not fail to secure something better very soon—something with a greater chance of advancement. I can see that the loss of the position has not depressed you. It will be rather to your advan , tage, I think." "Perhaps," said Russell. "Who can pro- phesy the consequences of trifles?" • "I was telling you what a -good fellow you are" - continued Brown. "It is a favorite subject with me. If you have a fault it is a lack of sentiment. I can hardy imagine your falling in love. But," he added, with a smile, "this only makes me the more certain that you are the man to whom I can look for help in an unusual need." "There is a reason, then, for all this," said Russell. "You have not drawn up this catalogue of virtues merely to set my con- science working?" I am "There is a reason, my dear boy. A chance has it engineer to the .heart of Africa.

Trifling embas: a sments and -the nee ary self -denials of economy had. given a falx and somber color to his life because he had never had the tact to counter- balance them with the small pleasures which are within the reach of everybody. But he viewed life differently now. This preposter- ous idea of money -getting had taken hien out of the present and a false hope offset a false despondency. "Hello! Russell," said a voice at his elbow; "conic and play a game of billiards." "How are ,you, Lane!" and Russell shook the young man warmly- by the hand. "I'd. like to play with you, but to tell the truth, I couldn't afford to pay if I lost. I've less than s dollar to carry me through to -morrow." dleeyer mind that," was the cheerful re- sponse. "I'll lend you a couple of dollars if I beat you." "I think you'll do it," .said Ru sell, as he ttoilette('T.nne in the direction of a billiard saloon. "Indeed," he added, mentally, "if . that's the condition of the game I fell pretty sure you will." It had been about five years since Bussell had handled a billiard cue, and he had never been an expert. However, being out of practice did 'not worry him any, for it appeared to be a case where defeat was preferable to victory. But he wished to avoid the appearance of throwing the game away, and therefore tried to miss all the shots by a narrow margin. In this way he executed some of the most brilliant "runs" of his life, and washalf a 'dozen points ahead -when the game was near its end. Then theinterest of the sport got the better of him; he played his level best; missed almost every shot, and was defeated by twos points in a hundred. "Tight game, that," said Lane, as he ex- tracted a two-doilar bill from his vest pock- et "I had no idea you could play so well. Ify'ouhadn't shot carelessly at the last you'd have won." - The game cost sixty cents, which was rather ahigh percentage to pay for the loan of two dollars, but Russell reflected that the rate of interest is always highest to the man who can least afford to pay. Ho parted from Toile at the door of the billiard hall and took his solitary way up -town. He had decided to walk home. It is a hard necessity which compel; a man to call a city lodging -house by such a hallowed name.

THE canrea OF A FRIEND. An hour's -walk brought Ruesell to his own door—or, to be exact, to the door which his landlady hired of the lawyer who managtel the estate of the man who in life hed caviled the building. He was surprised to see that a light was burning in hie room, and to find, upon entering, that his return had been anxiously awaited by almost the only person in the world to whom he knew that he was really something more than a face aud a name. That, the current of friendly' feeling between the two men did not pass with equal force each way was Russell's fault alone. His gloomy and mechanical way of life had shut out friendship from his heart. He had been too self-centered, too despondent, too dis- triestful of the value of snch sentiments. But Walter Brown was a man of another sort altogether: He trusted every body, in- cluding himself. He bad the warmest poesi- ble regard for Russell, and it was vieible in his earnest, kindly and handsome face.

She has been to school and has learned a largo number of facts but she makes no use of them. I am sure that she has a good mind but it doesn't get aay exer- cise. Do I make myself clear?" "You do," replied Russell, promptly, "but I am afraid there is nothing unique about Miss Ray's position. Too many girls in thie city are similary situated." "Perhaps so, but Miss Ray has my love while the_ others have only my sympathy. She doesut know it yet, unless by intuition. She is only eighteen, you know, and I have a fortune to make yet before I hope to -win her father's consent. As for her own in- nocent heart, Heaven forgive my presump- tion in thinking that I might ever be worthy of its love ; but I have dared to hope so, and I cannot banish the 'thought. "What I want to ask of you, Russell," he continued, even more earnestly, "it would , be imposeible for me to speak of if I did not regard you as a friend and brother worthy of all confidence.
