Start In with what you have and it will grow." ( i , ' ' ; Dick Larramore was very much lm pressed with his aunt's advice. He talked with Jenny about It and they agreed that they' would make a be ginning at once. Together they could raise $75, and they knew of a cottage they could get for. $20 ' month. They fixed a date for their wedding : and began to hunt for furniture that they could pick up af small cost ' ' One day Dick heard of an ; auction sale 'of household goods that was to take place in a neighboring village and concluded' to go over and see if he could 'get anything that would help him and Jenny at their housekeeping. He bought a dining table for $4 and a sldeboa'rd for $0. Among other things put up for sale , was a basket full of shells, eggs and other oddities. Dick bad always taketr great Interest In' curious things and had'' quit a col l r&- . t".-. jr '.. mi1 fmnt Rovfti GraOfl . J r I - weamot iimr v f ''Mh - Absolutely iA ' common metal." shells and other ar ticles. There were two largo eggs in the basket be saw at the auction that Melted bla ' curiosity, no bad never seen eggs of that size or. shape, lie forgot far the tlin Leifig thatba eeod d furniture and DcganTo'TItf on the ! basket of curios. An old woman seem ed to covet then.- and bid against him till she had raised her offer to 87. Dick bid $7.25, and the basket was knocked down to him. That brought him to his senses. lie had Invested about one-tenth of all bo bad to spend for furniture In a basket of worthless trinkets. : He was so disgusted with himself that he left the auction and drove home, : . The boldest thing he bad ever thus far done was facing Jenny, showing her, among his purchases, the basket of knickknacka. "Why, Dick!" she exclaimed when she saw the latter. Dick hung bla bead. "They'll make a nice ornament for our sitting room," said the girl, seeing by Dick's rueful appearance that he regretted his purchase as much as she did, and. putting her arms around his neck, she gave him a kiss. "W hat big eggs those are!" she said. "What bird laid tbemr "I don't know." said Dick, "and I don't care." ' ' :,. . "We'll ask Professor Drummond." Jenny showed Professor Drummond the eggs, and he pronounced them auk's eggs. ,:.;'.,. "What's an aukf asked Jenny. ' "Alcldae swimming birds with a pointed bill, very short wings and legs placed very far - back. Penqulns be long to the alcldae family. I'm not sure." he continued, eramlnlnor v th li. MKn Km f r the great auk"; t ' . "Is the great auk superior to the rest?" asked Jenny. "In one respect. They are extreme ly rare. Indeed, I think they are ex tinct" 1; , '; "If they are extinct how came these eggs to be In cxlstencer . ; ' ' "They must have been procured be fore the bird's extinction. At any rate, they are great curiosities. They must be very valuable." , Jenny's heart leaped for Joy. Per haps they could sell them for wbat Dick gave for them. This would re lieve bis mind, . and tUy could buy some kitchen utensils she needed.' "Do you think, professor," she asked, "that we could get as much as $7.25 for them r : ' v The professor smiled.. "If they are great auk's eggs," he replied, "you can get more than a hundred times $7.23." Jenny opened her eyes. . , "I would advise you to put them away carefully. I will bring Profess or Wilson, the naturalist to see them. He will settle the question whether they are great auk s eggs or not: ; Jenny put the eggs away" It was all she could do to keep from telling Dick what the professor had Bald, but she shrank from raising her lover's ex pectations to have them blighted, so she kept her secret and the next day the two professors called, looked at the eggs, and Professor .Wilson pro nounced the eggs those of the great auk. He gave their value at about a thousand dollars each. . He agreed to send a man who would offer for them all they were worth except a fair profit' .;., .:'''-."' Jenny kept her secret In fine style, though she said, "Heaven knows wbat a struggle I bave to do so!" One night when Dick came to see her she said to him:'1, "' " -' v :". ;':..' r '. ; "Dick, you know what a poor busi ness man you showed yourself In buy ing that basket of trinkets." , ; , "Please bury that matter." "Well, since you were so stupid as to buy those things I think I had bet ter sell them for you, -;l've sold the two big eggs already." "Sold tbemT "Yes. I got a good price for them." ' "How ortchr", ' r ; ,' : "Two thousand dollars." ; ; '. , "Stop your nonsense and tell me." Jenny drew a check for $2,000 and tried to show it to him, but her, feel ings overcame her, and, throwing her arms around, his neck,' 'he ' oould ' see nothlng'at aIUv:'"' r'-" ry.
