The Romance of a Busy Broker A Lapse of Memory By O. HENRY Copyright 1906, by McClure, Philllpa & Co. That was the morning; of the day that Northern Pacific stock went to 1.000, or the day when Union Pacific went down to 100, or some other day when there was a cyclone in Wall street that blew the roof off every broker's office, or blew bis bead off, or blew out his brains, or, at any rate, turned bitn upside down or Inside out or stood the brokers on their heads. Pitcher, confidential clerk in the of fice of Harvey Maxwell, broker, allow ed a look of mild interest and surprise to visit his usually expressionless countenance when his employer brisk ly entered at half past 9 in company with , his young lady stenographer. With a snappy "Good morning. Pitch er," Maxwell dashed at his desk as though he were intending to leap over it and then plunged into the great heap of letters and telegrams waiting there for him. The young lady had been Maxwell's stenographer for a year. She was beautiful "in a way that was decidedly unstenographlc. She forewent the pomp of the alluring pompadour. She wore uo chains, bracelets or lockets. She bad not the air of being about to accept an invitation to luncheon. Her dress was gray and plain, but It fitted her figure, with fidelity and discretion. In ber neat black turban hat was the gold-green wing of a macaw. On this morning she was softly and shyly ra- "1 WANT YOU TO MAURY ML" diant Her eyes were dreamily bright, her cheeks genuine peachblow, her ex pression a happy one, tinged with reminiscence. , Pitcher, still mildly curious, noticed a difference In her ways this morning. Instead of going straight lDto the ad joining room, where her desk was, she lingered, slightly irresolute, in the out er office. Once she moved over by Maxwell's desk, near enough for him to be aware of her presence. Sbe hesitated whether to speak to the busy man at the desk or not At one moment she looked at him won deringly. at another as if she were about to cry and at another as If ahe were trying to repress a laugh. Sev eral times she started to speak to him when she saw him about to make a jump from one matter to another, but he invariably jumped before she could get him. Then suddenly be seemed to become aware of her presence and glanced up at her quickly. The machine sitting at that desk was no longer a man. It was a busy New York broker, moved by buzzing wheels and uncoiling springs. "Well, what is It anything?" asked Maxwell sharply. His opened mail lay like a bank of stage snow on bis crowd ed desk. His keen gray eye. Imper sonal and brusque, flashed upon ber half impatiently. ' "Nothing." answered the stenogra pher, moving away with a little smile. "Mr. Pitcher." she said to the confi dential clerk, "did Mr. Maxwell say anything yesterday about engaging an other stenographer?" "He did." answered Pitcher. "He told me to get another one. I notified the agency yesterday afternoon, to send over a few samples this morning. It's 0:4.1 o'clock, and not a single pic ture hat or piece of pineapple chewing gum has shown up yet." "I will do the work as usual, then." said the young lady, "until some one tomes t fill the place." And she went to her desk at once and hung the black turban hat with the gold green macaw wing in its accustomed place. He who has leen denied the specta cle of a busy Manhattan broker during a rush of business la handicapped for the profession of anthropology. The poet sink's of the "crowded honr of glorious life." The broker's hour Is not only crowded, but the minutes and seconds are hiinging to all the straps and packing both front and rear plat fornin. And this day was Harvey Maxwell's busy day. The ticker began to reel out jerkily its fitful coils of tape. The desk telephone had a chronic attack of buzzing. Men began to throng into the office and call at him over the fil ing, jovially, sharply, viciously, excit edly. Messenger boys ran In and out with messages and telegrams. The clerks in the office jumped about like sailors during a storm. Even Pitcher's face relaxed into something resem bling animation. On the exchange there were hurri canes and landslides and snowstorms and glaciers and volcanoes, and those elemental disturbances were reproduc ed in miniature in the broker's offices. Maxwell shoved his chair against the wall ana transacted business after Ihe manner ot a toe dancer. He jump ed from ticker to phone, troru desk to door, with the trained ability of a har lequin. ' In the midst of this growing and im portant stress the broker became sud denly aware of a high rolled fringe of golden hair under a nodding canopy of velvet and ostrich tips, an imitation sealskin sack and a string of bead as large as hickory nuts, ending near the floor with a silver heart. There waa a self possessed yonng lady con nected with these accessories, and Pitcher was there to construe her, "Lady from the stenographers' agen cy to see about the position," said Pitcher. Maxwell turned half around, with his bands full of papers and ticker tape. "What position?" he asked with a frown. "Position of stenographer," said Pitcher. - "You told me yesterday to call them up and have one sent over this morning." "You are losing your mind, Pitcher," said Maxwell. "Why should I have given you any such Instructions? Miss Leslie has given perfect satisfaction during the year she bas been here. The place Is hers as long as she chooses to retain it. There's no place open here, madam. Countermand that order with the agency. Pitcher, and don't bring any more of 'em in here." The silver heart left the office, swing ing a.nd banging itself independently against the office furniture as it indig nantly departed. Pitcher seized a mo ment to remark to the bookkeeper that the "old man'' seemed to get more ab sentminded and forgetful every day of the world. The rush and pace of business grew fiercer and faster.- On the floor they were pounding half a dozen stocks in which Maxwell's, customers were heavy investors. Orders to buy and sell were coming and going as swift as the flight of swallows. Some of his own holdings were imperiled, and the man was working like some high gear ed, delicate, strong machine strung to full tension, going at full speed, ac curate, never hesitating, with the prop er word and decision and act ready and prompt as clockwork. Stocks and bonds, loans and mortgages, margins and securities here was a world of finance, and there wag no room in it for the human world or the world of nature. -'. When the luncheon hour drw near there came a slight lull in the uproar. Maxwell stood by his desk with bis hands full of telegrams and memoran da, with a fountain pen over bis right ear and his balr hanging In disorderly strings over bis forehead. His window was open, for the beloved janitress Spring bad turned on a little warmth through the waking registers of the earth. . And through the window came a wandering perhaps a lost odor, a del icate, sweet odor of lilac that fixed the broker for a moment Immovable, for this odor belonged to- Miss Leslie. It was ber owu, and hers only. The, odor brought her vividly, almost tangibly, before him. The world of finance dwindled suddenly to a speck. And she was In the next room twenty steps away. "By George, I'll do it now!" said Maxwell, half aloud. "I'll ask ber now. i wonder I didn't do It long ago." He dashed into the inner office with the haste of a short trying to cover. He charged upon the desk of the stenographer. She looked up at him with a smile. A soft pink crept over her cheek, and her eyes were kind and frank. Max well leaned one elbow on her desk. He still clutched fluttering papers with both bands, and tbe pen was above his ear. - "Miss Leslie." he began hurriedly, "I have but a moment to spare. 1 want to say something in that moment Will you be my wife? I haven't had time to make love to you in the ordi nary way, but I really do love you. Talk quick, please. Those fellows are clubbing the stuffing out of Union Pa cific." "Ob. ;what are yon talking about?" exclaimed the young lady. She rose to her feet and. gazed upon him, round eyed. "Don't yon understand?" said Max well restively, "t want you to marry me. I love you. Miss Leslie. 1 wanted to tell yon. and I snatched a minute when things bad slackened up a bit They're' calling me for the phone now. Tell 'em to wait a minute. Pitcher. Won't you. Miss Leslie?" Tbe stenographer acted very queerly. At first she seemed overcome with amazement, then tears flowed from her wondering eyes, and" then she smiled sunnily through them, and one of her arms slid tenderly about the broker's neck. "I know now." she aaid softly. "It's mis old business that has driven every thing else out of your bead for the time. I was friirhtened at first Don't you remember, Harvey? We were married Inst evening at 8 o'clock In the Little Church Around the Corner." REFLECTIONS ON MAN." Our days begin with trouble here; Our life is but a span. And cruel death is always near.

JONES DRUG COMPANY Portland Railway, Light & Power Company Beaver Building, Main Street DARKEN HER Mixed With Sulphur It Makes Hair Soft, Beau tiful. Cures Dandruff The use of Sage and Sulphur for restoring faded, gray hair to Its natural color dates back to grandmother's time. She kept her hair beautifully darkened, glossy and abundant with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. When ever her hair fell out or took on that dull, faded or streaked ap pearance this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. But the brewing at home is mussy and out-of-date. Nowadays skilled chemists do this better than ourselves. By asking at any drug store for the ready-to-use product called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" you will get a large bottle for about The Stuff Successful Men Are Made of The International Correspondence Schools are NOT closed in summer. All of our truly ambitious students those who think more about the increased salaries their studies will qualify them to earn, than of the imaginary discomforts of summer study devote a part of each week to their studies all summer. A student who will only study in cold weather punishes himself. Why? Because he takes two or three times as long, in preparing him self to earn more money, as the student who studies from a half hour to an hour per day all the year round. We have enough letters on file to make several very large books, the general purport of which is: "Oh, if I had only taken up that Course when I first wrote you about ft! I have just missed a fine position, at largely increased wages, be cause I wasn't prepared to fill it. I lacked just the special knowledge I could have had from the Course." The writers of these letters never have to be coaxed to study in summer NOW. They knew what delay costs. Why not profit by THEIR experience, instead of taking the same bitter medicine yourself? Persons that suffer most from the heat are those that have noth- lng else to occupy their thoughts. A man who is interested in his studies doesn't know how hot it is. He has no time to fret about the weather. He is looking ahead a few months to the time when he can demand advancement in position and salary, because his special educa tion will have made his services of more value to his employer. It is no harder to read an Instruction Paper in summer than to read a news paper. How many summer days are hot enough to prevent you from reading the daily news? The man who promises himself that he will enroll next fall is only trying to deceive his conscience. He may not know it, but he is weakening his will-pawer, and it is will-power power txj do what one knows he must do to succeed that makes the man. A man of weak will one who will study some day, but not now -will always be down in the world; always in "hard luck," frequently out of work, and when employed, it will always be at low wages. He knows that a knowledge of certain subjects will fit him to earn more; yethe stills his conscience by promising to start later. Such a" man isn't truly am bitious. He is one of the kind that always does the hard, menial work, and draws small pay all his life. Are YOU one of that kind. Are YOU truly ambitious to earn more and make something of yourself? If you wont study in summer you are NOT. If you prefer to fret about hot weather, rather than forget It by studying; you are NOT. The dangerous habit f "putting off" has ruined the lives of more promising young men than: drunkenness. It is so easy to say "yes, It's what I need; I'll start tomorrow next week some other time." The difference between the man that makes a failure of life and the man that succeeds is simply this: The failure is going to begin "tomor row;" the success begins today. The men who "get there'' are those that study for self-improvement in . summer, or whenever they have time. They don't let the weather keep them in inferior posiions, at small wages. They don't make excuses "to 'themselves when they ought to be up and doing. They don't work for wages barely enough to keep soul and body to gether either. Which Kind of a Man Are You?
