CHAPTER XV. rreer-rtalfl efIect of Albert Page's vIg orous efforts to, aitan. success was not lost upon bia friend Frank. A.fter their Cliristmas visit tr. Sands gate Albert had. applied himself dili- gently to the care of Mr. Neson's legal needs. This brought him into contact with other business men, and the fact that dolm Nason employed hina easily secured for him other clients. In two months he not only had Me. Nason's iaffairs to look after, but all his re- maining time was taken up by others'. He had spent Several evenings at the Nasons' home •and found the iamily a much more, agreeable one than Frank had led him to expect Both that young man's esisters were bright and agreeable young ladies, and, though a little affected, they treated him with charming courtesy and eitended to• him a (wale' invitation to have his ister make them a, viiit Since the day he had shaken his fist at the closed door of Mr. Frye's law of- fice Albert had met that hawk nosed lawyer twice and receieed enly a chill- ig bow. The memory of that con- tellable!e contract he had. Tacitly allowe ed Frye to consider as made brought a blush to his face every tints) he thought of it, but he kept his, own counsel.. Once or twice he had been on the point ef telling Frank the whole store, but had refrained. In his intimate relations with 3-01111 Kii01/1 he saw enough to satisfy himself • that Ptye's insinuation against that busy ran's character was entirely false. Mr. • Nason seldom spjtit an evening-avrafrom his home, and when he did it wan to attend the theater with • Lis family. After their visit te Sandgate Frank ad hiniself natarelly drifted into -More intimate relations, and a day seldom praSSed that Frank did not step into* Office for a chat. "Don't mind me, Bert," that uneasy man would ; say when he saw that Page was busy, "and if you don't want me to talk any time, tell me to shut up. I shan't feel offended. The fact is don't know what to do with myself. If it were only summer I'd go off on the Gypsy evezdif I had to go alone." One evening at the club he made Al- bert a rather surprising proposition. Albert, who seldom entered into any card. games and only occasionally play- ed pool or billiards, was in the reading room as usual enjoying a cigar and the evening paper when Frank drew up a chair and sat down. They were alone, and as Page laid his paper aside Frank said: "Do you know, I am getting abso- lutely tired and sick of doing nothing: Ryer since I left college -rye been an idler, and I can't say I'm enjoying it. r arise in the morning and wonder how 1 can manage to get through the day. I read the papers, go down to the etore, • up to the club, down to your office, back to the club to lunch a,nd maybe play pool for an hour or two with ;tome poor devil as lonesome as I am or go to the matinee, ,and. in the even- ing only do I begin to enjoy myself a little. I am beginning to realize that a life of idleness is a beastly bore, and "Here's My hand on. it." 1 am sick of it I want you to let me come into your office and study law. Will you?" Albert looked at him a moment, while an amused smile crept oder hie face. "Do you know what that means?" he responded at last. "Do you know, that to read law means two years per haps of close application and perse- verance? In my case I had. the ;spur of necessity to urge me en, and even with that stimulus it was a dry; hard grind. With you, who have all the money you need and are likely to, it will be much worse. 1 respect your feelings, and I admire your determina- tion -very much, and of course do not wish to discourage you. You are more than welcome to my office and law books, and I will gladly help you all can," and then, after a moment's re- flection, he added, "I believe it's a wise step, and I'll be very glad to have you with me. You can help me out in a good many ways also that will ad- vance you even faster than steady, reading." Re was surprised at the hook ef plealeire that came into Frank's face. "I had half expected you would try to discourage me," said he, "and it's very kind of you to promise to help "Wily ahoukIn't I?" answered Page. "I owe you a good deal more than that, my dear boy, and when you have been admitted we will go into a partnership if you want to do it." "Here's my hand on it," said Frank, "a-nd I mean it, too, and if you will have predict:ce with me stick THE MARRIAGE QU STION.

A. droll smile Zrept over Albert's face e at this frank admiselen, but he made no reply, and as;he canned his friend's face, now turned slightly away from him, and recalled that last evening at 'home and how Alice had so persistently devoted herself to the entertainment of this young man, a revelation came to him. • "So it's that heart breaker's blue eyes that have begun to work mischief - in Frank's feelings, is it?" lie said to himself after he had left the club, and be almost , laughed aloud at the thought. . "Nis has some rather pro- nounced ideas about inleness, and may-, be slie has _ read MY young frivol * lesson In a few! words.

Frank shoved a persevering spirit as the weeks •went by and became an ardent student. In a way, too, he was a help to Albert, for, he could call on him any time to find; some references or some decision bearing on a case in hand. It was soon after Frank's new depar- ture in life that Alice received a letter from her brother, and among other things he wrote: Wheat was it you said to Frank the last .evening of our visit at home? Re has de- cided to study law in my office and ad- mits hjej resolution to do so was the re- sult or a. remark you made then. Know. Ing what a fine vein of sarcasm You are • blessed with, I am curious to know what sort of an arrow you drew `from your quiver that evening. But Albert received no reply to his question. • I t eel CHAPTER XVI. LICIO PAGE'S first Impression of Frank Nason ,did not do him justie. She thought him a big, good natured, polite boy, rather conscious that he was like- ly to 'be sought after and disposed to sulk if he wastest His plea Son sym- pathy on the score that his life of idle- ness was a bre, which he made the day they went Sleighing, matte proyoked her derision, and as she evaa, disposed to judge all men by the standard of her self reliant brother, he came near awakening contempt on her part. It was not until the last evening of his visit that she discovered her mistake and realized that he /led more depth of character than she had thought. It Is likely the keen enjoyment which he seemed to feel when she sang for hien had weight, for we are prone to like those who lite us, and it was natural aIso that she should feel a little grati- tude for what he had done for her brother. Her life, hidden as she was in a by- way corner of a country town and seeing no one all the Week except her small band of pupils, gave her plenty of time for thought. Once a week, usually on Saturday, She received • a letter from .her broth, en and that, to gether with the mild excitement of Sunday churchgoing, was all that broke the monotony of her life. A week after the Christmas visit she received a -package containing a new book, three of the latest popular songs and a box of eiandy, and pinned to the candy Frank Jason's card, on the back of which was written, "For the girl who wanted to kiss her teacher." She wrote a polite note of thanks. It Was midwinter and two weeks after her brother wrote that Frank had be- gun studying law in his office when she received a letter from that young man that surprised her. Ile wrote: My Dear Miss Page -4 trust you will pardon me for intruding myself upon you, but 1 wish you to knew that a fewpoint- 11.!::111tC)N' ou wore epOetere fAy lean *tato vs.c..es SoYing your hotrpitailty have- not been for- gotten t and hetere influenced me to mo.ko an eftort to be eornething better than an Idler in the world.

In this respect • Frank Nason had read her bettor than she bad read nim, or else wine fortu- nate intuition had led him aright. She answered the letter at once, thanking him . for his flattering words, but for- bidding him to use any more of them.* "I do not like flattery," she wrote, "becauseno one ever can feel quite sure it is sincere. I will answer all; • your letters if you Will promise not to tell 'Bert we ,are corresonding. ;Not • that I am ashamed of it by any edeans,' but. he is inclined to tease me, and I love hien so dearly I can't bear to have him do so.

I did not tell her who'. sent ft, ter the fact would have been ali over town in a week if I had, and I do not like to • be gossiped about. I merely telq, her a good fairy had sent it, which was • bet- ter." • Once a week thereafter Alice re- • ceived. a; long letter from Prank and. as • regulirly answered it. • "Frank is getting along nicely," Al- bert wrote Alice in the early spring. "I believe he has the making ot a cos • pable lawyer in him.

"A very nicety worded little plot, but don't you imagine, my dear Bert, I do ot see threugh it!" waa the mental • eoiament of Alice when she read the letter. "The young gentleman has bravely sets to work to become a man instead ofa cipher. My brother likes him-; he whistles 'Ben Bolt;' my broth- er is to bring him up here again; I am expected to fall in love with Mr. Ci- pher that was and Ifdlp him spend his money, and I am to be barely toler- ated by meania and both sisters!

I guess nott I'll teach school till I die drst, and he can think of me as having a 'slab of granite so gray' to keep me in place." But this diplomatic "Sweet Alice" wrote to her brother: "I am delighted that you are coming up, for 1 am so lonesome, and the weeks drag esi hard! Bring your friend up, by all means, and I'll sing. 'Ben Bolt' till heehates the name of Sweet Alice. The country will be looking fine then, and he can go over to the cemetery and select the corner I am to occupy. Pardon the joke, and don't tell hien I uttered it" -To Prattle she wrote: "Be sure to ieeme up with Bert. I will sing all the old songs and the new ones you have sent me as well. If you come up on a Thursday yil mity visit my school Friday afternoon, and then you can see the giel you sent the candy to. She wears a celico pinafore and comes to school barefooted." letter, codp1d with his own sincere Alice's tlictul reply to her brother's affection for her, brought her a re- sponse by return mail in the form of a check for *100, with explicit orders to spend every cent of it before he came. CHAPTER XVII, ANDGATE was just budding forth in a new suit of green, the meadows dotted with daisies, and here and there a bunch of tiger Illie•s waved in the breeze when one Friday afternoon the teacher at the north district school heard a knock. • The class in reading, then in evie deece, were halted in their singsong of concert utterance, and Alice Page opened the door to find two stalwart young men standing there. With a quick impulse of propriety she stepped out and closed tb.e door behind her, only -to find herself clasped in a big brothr's arms and to receive a smack that was heard by every pupil in the little schoolroom. With a very red face she freed herself and then pre- sented a small hand to the other young man with the remark: "I think you are both just as meat! as you can be to surprise me in thie way!" When explanations were duly made, the two visitors were invited inside rind given seats. The class in reading was then. dismissed and that in ?Tlling A little Sunlight Soap will clean! cut glass and other articles until they shinq and sparkle.

He hitch- ed the horse, and, helpingi, his fair com- panion to alight, the two went inside the mill and watched .the 'rumbling wheels. Alice introduced hr escort to the miller, and after they had been shown the mysteries of grinding he In- vited them out to the pnd, and after bailing the old leaky beat so it Was usable the two visitors started after the lilies. "Mind You don't tip me over," said Alice. "I can't swim." "If I de I'll rescue you or drown with you," he answered gallantly. What silly nothings these. two young peoPle uttered as they Made the circuit of that long wood !bordred mill pond! One at least was just testing the first sweet illusion of love, and the glassy surface of the water that rellected the trees bending over it, the bunches of water flag growing here and there and the scattered patches of broad lily pads, with now and then a white blos- som, made a most picturesque back- ground for the girl who sat in the tern. Her piquant face, shaded by a feroad sun hat, was fairer to his eyes than any of the lilies sbe plucked, and as she drew one sleeVe up a little t� reach for them the round arm and dimpled hand she thr st into the wa- ter looked tempting neugh to kiss.
