On tho whole. Trviulwiiy llionnht It

of nn lucmmt of half n million n
yoar, tho Imtunu from Ills mother's
estttto, BUtl whon Ills father dlotl
well, It required tho tervli-es of two
men to keep track of the Treiulwny In
vestmeuts. Marlon was a dainty little country
woman, but (die wouul m-etl n lot of
social trulnliiK, of course, l'erluiim it
yenr in n llolHlilnjr m liool mUlit l it
Khh1 thluK to fit tier for the place In
society she was tleHtlned to fill. It

tlioiiKlits l'erlmps n social secretary
would Ih n letter plan. Treadway de
cided upou the stK'liil aocretnry as the
lesser of two necessary evils,
Marlon Illtesmnn wits only a little
country Klrl, the Mlo of Wlchfleld, n
vllliifie of ft few thousand poraons.
Treatlway had Ikh-u forvetl to stop
over there for repairs to his automo
bile, ami ln'foro these were made bit
had sceu Marlon. After that the auto
mobile was culled upou only for little
trips to nearby points of Interest, and
Treiulwny pnld III easy itolnx court to
the Kil l.
Perkins, his father's lawyer, made
his summer home In WIchfleM, and the
Introduction was easily ui-compllHlutl,
but Treatlway found ctmrtstilp accord
Injr to Wlchlleld uollous rather coiupll
catetl. lu town he would have left a
stantllni; order with the florist and
confectioner. There would have lieeit
an occasional motor excursion ami

conservator)- t some one' dance nntl

pmietn.
Here It was all different, ami, while
he enjoyed the novelty of It, ho found
It rather awkward at limes. In town
mammas with marrliiKealile tlaiiKhters
were willing to do more than half the
courUhlp for him. Here be found him-

self on the same level of eiunllly In ;
the HlleHiiian home as Hen Taylor. I
who clerked In I.uscomb's jfrocery.
Even tlila fact did not servo to worn
him, however, and his declaration was
entirely characteristic. The two were
returning from a ride In the country
A score of couples had gone out to the
home of n farmer host, and the roud
was dotted with bbKBles. At Marlon's
command Treadway had not thrown
on speed to outstrip the others, as he
usually did, and the car rolled hIouk
as quietly us though It were under the
observation of a string of traffic police.
Marlon, leaning back against the up
holstered cushions, gave a luxurious lit
tie slgli.
"I love nutomoblllng," she said,
"when the car does not run too fast."
"You shall have an automobile for
your own," he promised, "when we nro
manled."
"Are we to be married?" she naked,
with a touch of coldness In her voice.
"I hope so," was the prompt reply
"I've got a lot of money, and In time I
shall have a lot more. I can give you
everything you want and Introduce you
Into society. Of course you'll lmve to
coach up a little, but you'll make It all
right. Is it a go?"
"No, thank you," said Marlon very
quietly. "I admit that the proposition
you make Is glittering In the extreme,
but I must decline."
"Decline!" he gasped In anin.emeiit.
"Why, I know a hundred girls In New
York who would Just Jump nt the
chance!"
"In that case," was the quiet retort.
!'I shall omit the customary expres
sions of regret. No doubt you will fin!
quick consolation." ,
Treadway was too stunned to argue.
He busied himself with the steering
wheel until the big black car drew up
In front of the HItesman home. He
helped her out and opened the gate for
her.
"It Is goodby as well as good night,"
be said as she held out bcr hand. "I
shall be gone In the morning."
She stammered something be could
ttol rateh and hurried up tho walk I
tho house, Trend way watched her
wistfully until tho door closed behind
her; then he went nwny, currying In
his heart the memory of n slender fig
nre silhouetted against the lltflit from
the open door.
lu the early dawn tht) bin tomlnu
car slipped down the dimly road. There
wa.t Hie UNtml gossip, and then Wlch
lleld forgot Treadway lu thu excite
ment of a tvlval meeting At which
u famous evangelist exhorted, Hut
Treadway did not forget, even thousli
lie put Hie width r the Atlantic l
tweon himself and Urn Uttlo town
where be bad met defeat, lie tin willed
In London and loafed miserably lu
I'ni'ls, blit he could not forget tho girl
with the big brown eyes, and be was
glad when at last he turned his steps
homeward.
The summer had passed, but the
brisk iiulumnal air made touring a de
light, and presently for ti second time
the big black car rolled Into Wlchlleld.
Perkins, the Troiidwuy lawyer, had
closed his bouse ami gone back to
town, but there was an excellent ho
tel, nnd presently Treadway found
himself Installed In a comfortable
room. Onee settled he sallied forth to I
llnd Marlon.
She was not at home, they told him
at the bouse, but Mrs. HItesman udded
minute tllifoiloim by which he fouud
the patch of woods w here Marlon had
gone In search of nuts.
r.vldently her nutting was but an ex
cuse for a walk lu the woods, for he
camti upon her tiny dreaming nt the
foot of it huge chestnut. As he ap
proached the looked up wouderlngly:
then, after a moment's pause, alio
sprang to her feet with outstretched
lll'llds.
''Kor 11 moment I thought you must
W a vision." she cried as he hurried
toward her. "Mr. Perkins told me Just
before be left that you bad gone abroad
for the win let-."
"I did go across," ho confirmed, "but
I couldn't may. I wanted to come
back ami ask you if your tlecl-don was
dual"
My decision?" she ivhoed
"Yes." he explalued. "I know you
told me that you would not marry inc.
but I could not he content until I ask
ed again. I weut to I.omlou nnd Parts
to try to forget yon. but the farther
from home I got the more I seemed to
want you. and so here I nui."
"Hut the hundred or more who were
ready to actvpt you and your mil
lions?" she reminded.
"There mliht l e a million or more
w ho vf oulil be ready to accept my hun
dreds," be replied Impatiently, "but
the whoio million lu one big seraglio
would not U you, dear. It was a
sl'ly, hrcugart speech that 1 am hearti
ly nsli uiictl of now. It was that which
brought !! bark. I wauled to tell
you how well I realized what a fool I
hail been. 1 love you too much to give
up without another appeal. I've a
whole lot to learn. Marlon, but will
you be the tMrher, dear, and show me
that the cursed money Is not every
thing?" "I think I should like to try," she
whispered as he caught her hand.
"And I came over here prepared for
the argument of my life," he said wou
derlngly. "Yon gnl I this ilme what you should
have saitl l'fo.-e," she replied. "The
last time you offered me wealth and
position. This time you have offered
me your love. It Is love thnt a girl
wants, Tom, It's not always the mon
ey she seeks. I liked you liefore, but
I could not be bought."
"But I loved you then," bo cried,
"Not In tho sniuo way," bIio explain
ed, "or you would have told me so.
You wanted me to tench you. That
was the first lesson."
"Then here endeth the first lesson,"
cried Treadway, with n laugh, as ho
bent to touch tho soft brown hair with
his lips. "Iet's hope the others will
not le so drastic. You've been pretty
hard on your pupil, sweetheart,"
Tricking a Jeweler.
A fashionably dressed woman once
alighted from a brougham In west
London ami stepped Into a hairdress
er's shop. She Informed tho barber
that she had a son who was of un
sound mind and that the doctor hud
ordered his head to bo shaved.
Her son, she said, was violent, and
Mho Instructed the barber to get a
couple of assistants and seize him
when he was brought round, to tie him
In a chair and shave his bead In spite
of anything ho might say. Tho bar
ber did not relish tho Job, but 1111 ad
vance fee of n guinea tempted ulni,
and be fell.
Then the lady drove to the Jewel
er's, bought some expensive rings and
Jewelry and expressed surprise ut hav
ing left her purse at home. She of
fered to drive tho Jeweler homo with
her, together with the Jewels, and pay
him at her residence.
On arriving once more at the bar
ber's the two alighted, and the unfor
tunate Jeweler nt a sign from the lady
was seized and bound to a chair, and
In spile of his angry yells and expos
tulations his head was shaved. Mean
while the lady drove off with 300
worth of gems and was never heard of
