stepped out- ot the boat. Only a few
eteps up 'a mossy bank offered its tenap-
Melon, and wi.th quick gallantry he
drew his coat off and spread it for her,
to sit upon. -
"It's nice and cool ]ire," she said,
"but -we must not stay Jong.• Blanch
will be waiting." •
Frank had thought naany times of
what he Would say and how he would.
say it, but now that the critical mo-
ment had come his well chosen words
vanished. He had remained standing
andefor a moment looked at Alice as'
she sat with hat hidden face, and
then'his'heart-bUrst came.
"Miss Page," he -said in a low voice,
"you must know what I want to shy,
tuad-eand I've come all the way frem
Maiie to-sayi it, and can you -is there
any hop b for me? Is there just a -
little'?" •
.
• He paused, but no answer.eame, only
her head sank a trifle lower, aid now
even the tip ofher chin was invisible
beneath the hat. It may be the move-
ment emboldened him, for in an in-
stant he was beside her on the ground
anti had one hand a prisoner.
"Tell me, Alice," he pleaded, "Is
there any chance for me? Say ,just
one word -only one! Say 'yes'!"
The prisoned hand was at his lips
now, and then she raised her face, and'
-oh, divine sight! -those blue eyes
were filled with tears. •
One instant flash of heaven onty;
and then a change came. She arose
quickly and, turning away, Said half
petulantly:' "Oh, please don't speak of
that now and spoil our visit:- Let us
go back to the mill."
- But still he held the little hand, and
as she tried to draw it away he said
pitifully: "Do you mean it, Alice?*
Is it Igo? Oh. don't let me go away
without one word of hope!"
Then she raised her one free arm
and, resting it against a nearby tree,
pressed. her face upon it and almost_
whispered: "Oh, don't ask me now!'
I can't say 'yea,' and I can't say 'no.'"
"I shall belleye that yourheart says
he responded quickly, slipping
one arm around her waist, "and until
you do say `no' I shall keep on loving
you just the same."
She drew herself away and, turning
a piteous face :toward him, exclainaed,
"Don't, please, say another word now,
or ct-Shall hate myself as long as I
live if you do." •
For one moment he stood dumfound-
ed, and then it dawned upon him.
"Forgive me, aweet• Alice, he said
softly, "for speaking too soon. 1 be-
lieve 1 know why you feel as you do,
and I shall go awa'y hoping that in
time you will come to know my mother
better. And since you have said thet
you can't say 'no,' 1 shall stnticitinte
that some time it will be 'yes.' Now
we -will go and gather lilies."
• Then, as he led her to the boat, his
arm once more stole around her waist
and this time she did. not try to escape
Its pressure. •
When, two days afterward, the broth-
er and sister were ready to depart,
Blanch put one arm caressingly around
Alice and whispered, "Now, remember,
you havetpromised, to make me a visit
next wittier, and youymust keep your
•promise."
And poor Romeo, standing by, had
to look the love that was in his heart
while he envied his sister her Partin:7,
kiss.

It's all, day with rae." .
"I &mid have told you that the day
after we arrived there," anSwered
'Blanch, "and I am not Aurprised.
:Now" -with a laugh -"you must court
mamma tor a- few months as well as '
. your -pretty - Alice. It will do you
good, for you never have been over-
tire ifel."
• Frenk frowned. "Oh,. bother these
finicky motiters!" he exclaimed. "Who',
will they turn up their noses at every
poor girl? . If Alice- had rich parents
she e.,would- be all Holtno matter if
she were as homely as a hedge feuce."
"Maybe, that's so," answered Blanch,
"lent'you can't change rearannetand if
yon want to win your Alice you must
do as 1 thli you and court mamma.
Now, I will tell you what -to do, and if
you're good to me I'll help you do k.
In the 'first place you niust stay in the
mcoulains until we go home, ana do
all you can to please mother. Take her
driving. ask her to play whist with
you. and when she makes a good play
praise it; carry her wraps for her, be
solicitous about her welfare and com-
fort in all things, and treat her just as
if she were Alice instead of mamma.
Then wben she is well caredfor, act
downcast atetimeh and depressed. Wait
a few days before working fhe melan-
choly•act, and don't say much to other
glees. Dance with Ede and me • and
say sweet things to mamma for a
week. Then some day take ber out for
a drive and act as if you had lost your
last friend. She will inevitably ask
what ails you, but- don't tell her too
quickly. Let her coax you a little, and
after awhile make a clean breast of
it.
"I would suggest you insinuate the
girl bas favored your suit, but has
practically said `no' because she is
too proud to marry into a rich fam-
ily. That 'will do more to pique mam-
ma's interest in the matter than vol-
nmes of praise Per Alice. Don't say
too much, but if she questions you •
about her answer frankly to the point,
but convey the impression that you
consider your case hopeless, and leave
the rest to me."
Frank looked at his sister in silent
. admiration. "I didn't know you bad
such a wise head on your shoulders,"
he said at last. •
When Frank and Blanch had made a
short stop at Saratoga, "just to be able
to say so," as Blanch said,they return-
ed to the mountains, and the little do-
, mestic drama began. As it progressed
Frank grew interested in watching the
effect it had on his proud mother. To
have her only son show her so much
devotion before crowds of People glad-
dened her heart, and it was soon no-
ticed and caramented 'upon. She had
known that Prank was from the first
a little smitten with this sister of his
college chum; but as he had hahl several
Mild cases before she thought nothing
of it. -With motherly caution sbe took
care to ask no questions, even when
Blanch told her they had visited Alice
on their way- to Saratoga.. When the
denouement came she was, as Blanch
had predicted, completely taken abeek.
She made ,but little reply to his love-
lorn tale except to laugh at him and
assure him .he would soon overcome it,
but that night she. queationed Blanch.
"I noticed Fraqk was very attentive
to Miss Page," Blanch said, "while she
seemedto avoid being left alone with
Iihn a moment. • She is one of the
-sweetest and prettiest girth I've met in
a long time, and also one of the proud-
est. I fell in love,with her at sight and
am sure Frank has, but so far as.I saw
she 'gave him no 'encouragement. She is
pole pretty and proud, and that tells
the whole story. 1 imagined she be-
lieved she .would not be welcomed by
you."
When the last .of August came and
the Nasoes returned to Boston, Frank
Mad his -mother were on excellent
terms.
"What has come over Frank?" Edith
Said to Blanch one day. "Be has never

sole care in life ever since. What is ,
the Meaning of it, Blanch?"
"It seems so good to hate him deo
voted to us that I am not going to ask
any questions," answered Blanch.
CHAPTER XXX:
HE last day of Augest deemed
fair In busy Boston. Sum-
mer sojourners were return-
ing.John Nason's store
was filled With new fall styles, the
snoppets were crowding the streets,
and the hustling, bustling life of a
great city Was at flood tide. Albert
Page, full of business, was in his of-
fice, and 'Frank Nason was studying
hard again. Small fortunes were be-
ing won and lost on State street, and
in bne smoke polluted broker's office
Nicholas Frye sat watching the price
of wheat. The September option
opened that du at 78•14, rose to 79,
fell to 76, rose to 78 'and then
dropped back to 76. He had margined
his holdings to 71, and if it fell to that
price his $60,000 would be gone and he
-ruined. For many nights be had had
but little sleep, and that made hideous
by dreams filled with the unceasing
• tenth and click, click, click of the
• ticker. He was worn and weary with
the long nervous strain and misery of
seeing his fortune slowly clipped' away
by the clicker's tick that had come to
Sound like the teeth of so many little
devils snapping at him. To let his
holdings gohe could not, and, lured
en end on by the broker's daily uttered
Assertion that "wheat could not go
much lower, but must have a rally
sooar
he ;had kept putting up margins'.
Now all he could poasibly 'raise was in
the broker's hands, and when that was
,gnne All was lost.• "
-Frye sat and -Watched the bliaekhoSitel
where the uneven columns' of quota-
tions looked like so many -little legs
ever growing longer. Around
• Were a seore, of other men watching
the figures. No one cared whether an-
other won or lost in the great gam-
bling game that ruins thousands.
It *as the caldron filled with lies,
false reports, fictitious sales and the
hope and lust of gain that boiled and
bubbled, heated by the fires of hell.
And ever around that caldron the souls
of men were circling, cursing their
•losses and gloating over their gains.
And Frye was muttering curses.
So feat came the quotations that the
boy could to longer record them. In-
stead he called them out in a drawling
singsong:
"Septemberwheat now seventy-
three -the halt--five:eighths-a half -
five -eighths split -now a half -three-
eighths.- a quarter - seventy-three!"
Frye set his feet hard together and
clinched his hands. Only 2 cents itt
price stood between him and the loss
of all his twenty years' saving. All
the lies he bed told for miserable gain,
all the miserly self denial he had prac-
ticed, all the clients he had. cheated
and robbed, all the hatred he had won
from others, availed him not. His con-
temptible soul and his life almost now
hung by a miserly 2 cents.
"Seventy -three --a quarter -an eighth
-seventy-three-now seventy-two seva
en -eighths three-quarters—five-eighths
-three-quarters split -now five-eighths
'-a
Pandemonium was raFing in the Chi-
cago wheat pit, and the ticker's teeth,
clicked like mad. •
"Seventy -two ----a half -a half -three-
• eighths -a half -three -eighths -a quare
ter-seeenty-two!"
Cold beads of ,sweat gathered en
'rye's forehead.•'One cent more and
he was ruined.
"September wheat now seventy-one
seven -eighths - seven -eighths - three-
quarters-seven-elghths split -now the
three -quarter -five -eighths -a half - a
half -five -eighths -a halt -a half again
-three-eighths-a quarter -an eighth -
a quarter -an eighth -a quarter -an
eighth -an eighth -a quarter split -an
eighth -
"Seventy -one!"
Frye was ruined.
He gave one low moan, the first and
only one during those three long weeks
of agony.
The devil's teeth kept snapping; the
endless coils of tape kept unwinding.
The boy continued his drawl, but rrye
paid no heed. Only those' spider lege
on the wall seemed kicking at him, and
that fatal seventy -one -one -one -kept
ringing in his ears. He arose and
staggered out and witb bowed head
made„his way to the office.
li'Vhir-r-r-r-r I
Click, click, click!
Seyenty-one-one-one! It was the
last he heard, and then he sarin for-
ward on his desk in a stupor.
At this moment Uncle Terry, with
Frye's letter lin bis pocket and right-
eous wrath .in his heart, was speeding
toward Boston as fast :as steam could
carry him.
- Tbe clear, incisive strokes of an ad-
jacent clock proclaiming midnight
awoke Frye. He raised his head, arose,
lit the two gas jets and sat down.
Seventy -one -one -one!
They brought it all back to him, and
now, alone in his miser', he groaned
aloud, and with his despair came the
dread of the morrow, when he must go
forth crushed, broken, despairing, pen-
niless.
All would know it, and all would re-
ioice. Out of the many that hated or
feared him not one would feel a grain
of pity, and he knew it.
Then his past life came back to him.
He had never married, and since be
had looked down eupon his dead moth-
er's face no woman's hand had sought
his with tenderness. All his long life of
grasping greed had been spedt in money
getting and money saving: • No sense
of right or justice had ever restrained
him. Year after year he had added to
hid hoard, carefully invested it, and

CHAPTER X I.
LBERT PAGE i had just -11n-
ished reading l his morning
mail the first day of Septem-
ber when his office door
opened and Uncle TerrY entered.
•"Well, well!" exclaimed Albert,
springing to his feet "How are you,
Uncle Terry? How are your good wife
and Telly, and when .did you arrive,
and why diclint you let me know so
could meet you?",
"Waal," answered Uncle Terry, seat-
ing himself,- "I got in purty late last
night an' put up at a tavern near ,the
depo'."
"But why didn't you Write or wire
me, so 1 could have met you at the
h•fito'd"
`The fact on't is," replied Uncle
Terry, removing his hat and laying it
on the floor beside him, "I've allus
-pulled my own boat in this world, an'
it sorter goes tight the grain now to
;Viet tile oars over to 'pother fellow."
Tlielk, reacting into his pocket, draw-
etit a letter and banding it to Al -
bort, he added: "'Bout -two weeks ago
1 get this 'ere from that thief Frye. I
was 'spectin' the govanent boat 'long
• moat every day an' so couldn't cum
say sooner."
Albert read the letter and gave a low
whistle. "Frye must have been either
very hard ‘up when he wrote," he said,
"or else the other parties are crowdiug,
him, and this is his last effort to fleece
you. I have heard that he bas been
speculating in wheat lately, and it may
be he has got caught. I hope so, so it
will be easier for us to bring him to
terms. I have my plans all mapped
out, and I think we heti best go for
him at once while he is likely to be in
Itis office." Then, calling to Frank and
rapidly writing a check for We wlaile
that surprised young man was shaking
hands with Uncle Terry, he continued:
"Please go up to the station, Frank,
and get an officer at once aad step fate
the Maverick bank on your way back
and get this check cashed. 'We will ice
prepared for the worst."
When Frank had gone Ueele Terry
wed: "There wa'n't no need el yer get-
fthe money, Mr. Page. I've brtinJo
nacos. oassine
enree Wandreff, which is eh pe awed
for."
"We may need more neverthOless,"
answered Albert, "and as 1 wish te
make but one visit to Frye's office, it's
beat to go prepared:" Then after fill-
ing out a writ of replevin he added:
"Excuse -me a moment, Mr, Terry.
I will be back soon."
He 'Wee absent perhaps five Txtinutes,
and then Uncle Terry was astonished
to see a strange n:tan enter from an
Ismer room. Ere wore ft fUll black
the stranger to speak.
I"Don't you knoir me, Uncle Terry?"
looked at him in eurprlse, vraitirtg for
