THE BYPRODUCT.
The best things of life come Inci
dentally. They are byproducts.
Before you have gained wisdom In
experience you fancy the battle of life
Is easiest to win by frontal attack and
you smash away at it. Later on you
come to see that a flank movement is
best.
That is to say:
Yon try to do something by direct
effort and fail. Then you turn your
attention to something else, and, lo,
you find that which you sought at first
For instance:
You want to be happy. You try to
make yourself happy. You try hard
and fail. Then you quit trying and
conclude that happiness is not won In
lhat way. You conclude that it is best
to make others happy. You try that
and the first thing you know you are
happy.
It is the byproduct
In looking for something else what
you want turns up. You have won by
the flank movement
There's popularity.
You want to be popular and you try
to be. But somehow your smiles do
not win. Somehow people come to see
that you are working at the 'popular
ity business. You fail. Then you con
clude it is better to deserve popularity
than to win it, that it Is better to try
to be lovable than to be lovely.
Then you are popular.
A woman wants to be beautiful. She
follows the directions of the experts
of the Sunday papers, haunts the beau
ty parlors uses face creams and cos
metics and fails. She concludes it is
better to have good health and a beau
tiful soul. She perseveres and
She is beautiful.
It may be so even in making money
You try to get rich quick. You fail.
Then you conclude you are not cut out
for a millionaire. You decide to go
slowly and safely and be content
And the money comes.
It is so of fame. ' He who sets out
to be famous and thinks only of fame
Is apt to fail. When he reorganizes
his life and concludes that It Is better
to deserve fame than to acquire it be
Is going rightly about the matter.
When he merits his fame he get it
It is the byproduct
We are built that way.

Viscount Hurleigh was dead, and his
son inherited the title, with the entail
ed .estates. Dowager Viscountess Hur
leigh was now face to face with a
family problem. Her son was provid
ed for. but she bad a daughter,
Gladys, for whom there was no pro
vision whatever and whom ber mother
considered entirely incapable of pro
viding for herself. Lady Gladys had
she been born in America, where new
fields are opening to women every
day and where the daughters in
wealthy families often work from
mere preference, might have done very
well. In England she was bound to
be a failure. There is Just as inuch
especial fitness for society as any other
department of life, and Lady Gladys
Hurleigh did not possess such fitness.
When the young swells were brought
up and introduced to her they got no
response to their society chitchat and
left her as soon as they could politely
do so. Some Oxford .or Cambridge
professor might draw out what there
was in her, but not the dancing man
of the smart set.
The dowager viscountess was a
practical woman, who instinctively
understood the laws of supply and de
mand. American women of fortune
were marrying titles In England, but
she could not recall a single case of
an Englishwoman of noble family
marrying a rich American. British
noblemen went' to America for their
wives. Why should not a British girl
of a titled family go to America for a
husband?
Letters of introduction were obtain
ed to the social leaders of New York,
and Lady Hurleigh sailed with her

MAN'S HAND.
daughter on her. errand of conquest.
I say her errand, for she had the good
sense to keep ber object a "secret from
Gladys, knowing that If the girl knew
it she would flatly decline to go, and
when Gladys put her foot down there
was no lifting it The mother intend
ed to guide the way diplomatically,
keeping her daughter so far as pos
sible from scientists, literary men,
artists indeed, all who used their
brains in fields that were- considered
unprofitable. As to merchants and
manufacturers.'- they were not to be
considered. She proposed to surround
her candidate with the wealthy Society
men- of New York, ready to take ad
vantage of any opportunity that might
arise to supply Gladys' natural defi
ciency as a husband angler.
As the mother bad expected, she and
ner daughter as members of the Brit
ish nobility received every attention in
New York, and the young men flocked
about the young lady. But the men
never got beyond a certain point,
Gladys gave them an opportunity to
show what of intrinsic value there was
in tbem, and when it was apparent, 'as
it was with most of them, that their
brains were in their heels she shut
herself up like a clam, and they soon
dropped away from her. Her mother
was disappointed. After spending a
season without results Lady Hurleigh
threw up the sponge and -prepared to
go back to England. '
Then came a reqnest from Gladys that
they see something of those engineer
ing and mechanical wonders that she
Jad . beard of as existing in America.
l.ady Hurleigh knew that a request
from her daughter was not to be de
nied and reluctantly consented
One morning Gladys and ber moth
er, piloted by a gentleman and his
wife, drove up before an enormous
manufacturing concern and. alighting,
entered the office, making a request to
be shown the premises. At each de
partment they were turned over to the
foreman, who made such explanations
of the machinery and processes as they
asked for. One of these foremen, a
young man of twenty-three or twenty
four. Instead of allowing them to gape
unintelligent)? at what they saw with
out heir asking explained everything.
Indeed, he made himself and' what be
Bpoke of interesting to all except the
riscpuntes8, who declined .o be inter
ested by any man in a suit of overalls.
When they left his department Gladys
was much pleased at the young man's
offer to show them over the balance of
the work and accepted it with thanks.
She was somewhat surprised that be
should encroach upon parts of the fac-
tory under other foremen, but be made
no explanation of the matter, and it
was soon forgotten in the interest be
excited in what they were seeing.
When they were ushered out to their
conveyance Lady Hurleigh dropped a
silver dollar in the foreman's band,
much to her daughter's mortification.
Seeing her embarrassment, be showed
a delicacy far. above his station by ac
cepting the tip as a matter of course.
This was the last visit Lady Hur
leigh made with her daughter to' any
of the commercial or mechanical won
ders of America. After that she told
Gladys that she might go where she
liked If she would only cut it short so
that they might get back to England,
and in a few weeks they sailed for
home. The poor woman had met with
a great disappointment
At the opening of the next season
when the "American invasion" of Eng
land, as the English people call the
begira of our tourists to Europe, be
gan, persons whom Lady Hnrleigh add
her daughter had met in America com
menced to send in their cards. The
younger of these persons the viscount
ess left to ber daughter to entertain.
Gladys, who bad been much pleased
with the freshness, the absence of
sham among the masses, that she bad
found in America, surprised ber moth
er by doing the honors successfully.
Indeed. Gladys was far more attentive
to them than her mother considered
necessary, for the older lady not hav
ing gained anything from ber visit was
disposed to let the visitors see Eng
land by themselves.
Few young American men put in an
appearance and these the viscountess
left entirely to Gladys, seeing none of
them herself. One day a Mr. Edwin
Atherton called, and the card being
taken to Lady Hurleigh, raising her
glasses to read the name and not rec
ognizing it, she sent it to ber daughter
with a request that she receive the
visitor. Some time after that when
Mr. Atherton called again, Gladys, who
was dressing, asked her . mother to go
down and entertain him till she had
finished her toilet The viscountess
did as she was asked, and though she
felt sure she had seen Mr. Atherton
before could not place him. Neverthe
less, to the manner born, she greeted
him as one she remembered perfectly,
but was careful to keep the conversa
tion on general topics that she should
not betray her ignorance of his IdentLJ
ty. Her daughter appearing, she turn
ed the guest over to her and. excusing
herself, left the room. .
It was not long before Lady Hur
leigh noticed that Mr. Atherton was
becoming a frequent caller. One day
she asked Gladys who he was and
where in America they had met him
But Gladys' identification was not es
pecially clear, and her mother got but
little satisfaction. The American's
calls continuing and certain attentions
coming from him to Gladys that indi
cated more than an ordinary interest,
the fond mother made another effort
to learn from her daughter something
about him. All attempts failed, but
after one of Mr. Atherton's calls.
Gladys went to her mother radiantly
happy and, handing her an American
silver dollar, said: -
"Mr. Atherton asked me to give this
to you for one of your charities."
The viscountess looked at the dollar
then at Gladys. Something in thtf
girl's face excited a desire for further
Information.
"Do you remember, mother, when we
were in America visiting a factory be
ing shown over the premises by a fore
man and youtlpping him when we
went away? " .
"It seems to me I do."
"Well, that's the identical dollar you
gave him."
The mother looked stupefied, and the
daughter continued:
"That foreman is the son and heir of
the founder and principal owner of
those works' In America, it seems,
the sons of manufacturers sometimes
go Into their fathers' works to learn
the business, occupying successively
every post from the lowest grade. This
Mr. Atherton is one of these persons
He has finished his apprenticeship and
has come abroad on a vacation before
assuming the vice presidency of the
works of which his father ls-presi
dent"
Lady Hurleigh listened to this with
intense interest When Gladys had
finished she said: .
"Are you quite sure, daughter, that
he has not come on any other account
than a vacation?"
"He has, mother," replied the daugh
ter, blushing. "He has told me that,
after having shown us the factory, he
made a resolution that he would fol
low me to England with a view to win
ning me for his wife."
"And you have accepted him?"
"I have."
There were counter currents in the
pother's heart The idea of her daugh
ter marrying a mechanic that she had
seen in overalls and whom she had
thought it proper to tip was a terrible
shock to her, but when she learned
that the young man was heir to mil
lions she was mollified, and when be
was presented to ber as her future
son-in-law she received him as well as
could have been expected under the
circumstances.
Atherton is now attending to busi
ness in America, where he and his wife
live. Mrs.' Atherton boasts that she is
the only Englishwoman who ever at
tacked the American matrimonial mar
ket so far as she knows, and carried
away a prize. .

LIVE STOCK MARKET
Wants of butchers are small in the
livestock market at North Portland at
this time. This causes a languishing
trade. Receipts are coming forward
so' freely that the trade has not been
able to move, them promptly. The
result is not only heavy expense for
feeding and yardage, but the accep
tances of lower prices.
Saturday's run of livestock was lim
ited, but was more than the trade
wanted. There was a run of 135 hogs,
but one load of tnese went direct to
a meat company, the stock having
been purchased outside of the yards.
The market for hogs is weaker gen
erally. At Chicago there was a weak
er tone In the hog trade. Prices lost
5s with a run of 19,000 compared with
15,000 a year ago.
At Kansas City hog offerings to
talled 8,000 head. The market closed
