sung, unknown, except in its lists of
deaths, occupied John Breen, C.E.,
through the winter and into the
spring of 1912.
A month later, John was visiting
Harboard at the University. "I've
had a taste of the city work, I'm go-
ing to stick, This place," nodding
out of the high window, "is so full
of big things it's a challenge to a
fellow with a grain of kick in him.

bhe huge new span of massive steel
rising above Hell's Gate, "is enough

other day. "This is n. big man's

the punch, stick in New York—and
win!"
Gilbert and Jcsephine were in Par-
is in early April. Josephine com-
pleted her trousseau, Rantoul had
gone on ahead to London. Then
they were at the Cecil for a few days.
Rantoul had preceded them. A let-

Poor John! It was spring. Gilbert
Van Horn carefully folded the letter
and gave a sigh of satisfaction.
Ps suddenly drew her to him, fiercely—nor didshe resist

John certainly did carry himself with
an air of confidence, and—and how
easily he had assumed the character
of a gentleman! Josephine noted
this especially. Of late Gerrit Ran-
toul had told her. a great deal about
John's early life on he Bowery
and
in the Ghetto, and things he had
picked up in conversing with Mal-
one, It seems John Breen had lifted
himself far above his normal sta-
tion in life. Fortunately, for Ran-
toul, Van Horn had no idea of this
phase of his conversations with Jose-
phine.
"Rantoul's going over on business"
Van Born remarked to John.
"Fine that'll keep Josephine se
eupied. He's handy." John had no
special reason to accept Rantoul as
anything but a very agreeable old
man.

voids, a touch of the etherial cold.
Few were out, but Josephine, on

Why shouldn't the most aggressive seller
get most business?
The world likes to buy from keen sellers—
from retailers who pay them the compliment of
telling them about what they have to sell and
about their desire for their custom.
puncb retailers may be fine men, may give
good values, may be first-class store keepers,
but the buying public prefers to go where ad-
vertisements in their newspapers direct then
to go.
The wise retailer runs his business in line with what buy-
ers want, because it is profitable to' do so`
