Though It wii only an hour before
the great football gsme between Clin
ton and Darnall, their couverwitlim
was not of tbe gridiron they walked
down Main street bound for Clinton
oral.
Then' only on thing that ken1
nie from becoming engaged ,0 7"
right now, Tboruton," wild tin tr!
after a serious oause.
"You'll bv to tell me, LU I
cin't guess It," aneweced tbe stalwart
Quarterback of the Clinton eleven.
"Juiit thla," ah Msfd. "I em not alto
tether sure tlmt yon really need me
in your life. .Tou are a strong, lf
reliant boy, capable of fighting your
own wy over the olmtnclee that will
confront too.
"More than all elie nut together, I
want to know tbnt without my en
couragement you would be acconv
plUblng hM-tht I will alwaya be
an Inspiration to you, no matter what
your alina may be. r ,, r.S
For a moment the young man did
not reply. Then be looked at bli com
panion, hi gnu sincere.
"Lei, you're right,' he agreed quiet
' ly. "That' the way I want yon to
feel about It. Deep down In my heart
I know tbnt you would alway Inspire
ma to atrtv for the beet In Ufa. Hut

do It, too, dear girl, If I get tbe
chancer
"Msybe you will, Thornton," ahe
replied, "and I hope that yon will
more than yon can guess. Why-why
not begin at tb gam today V
"That what I Intend to do, fetal"
wa prompt response.' "I eipert to
play a I never played before, Jut be-
'cause you are wearing Clinton' col
or and wearing my pennant It
pretty one, Isn't It T
"Tbe gold and brown stripes hnruio-
nlxe beautifully with that bright
brown gown yon are wearing. Tour
ticket calls fur a et back on tbe
north goal, and I know I'll you
clearly dmplte the crowd."
"It certainly 1 6m," eh declared.
"that Utile me may bo an Inspiration
to a Clinton boy to piny at bla beet:
But It seems almoxt a pity that yon are
not on of the "balftwcks or to the line,
tnougn I Know everything aepenna

"I know v. but you mean. Leta," be
said. "Yon would like to e me in a
position where I could run with the
ban Inettmd of banding It out to some-
body elae r'
Th girl nodded, "'
"Well, that' because I weigh only
13 lnatead tf 20 pound," be contln
ned. "After all, It take aboer weight
in tbe line, and that naturally slide
me into the quarterback's place.
"Hut you mustn't forget that Clinton
depend upon me to kirk th goal, and
goal kicked or uilased often wlna or
loae a big gam Ilk till."
Tbey were now on the college
ground amid shouting hundred and
fluttering flag and pennants. Thorn
ton asolated Leta to hor aeat high up
In that part of the semicircular grand
stand that at rote bed around behind the
north goal. " ;"
"1 hope Clinton get th south nd
of the Hold," he atd a be started off
tQysrd ho clubhouse.
"Wbyt" sfie anted. . " t
"Because then I'll be able to tee tbe
orange aud brown magnet that's draw

be said earneatly.. v
Boon th rival eleven trotted out on
tb field, and from the tbouaand
tongucd grand atand roe a mighty
bout, whllo pennant, ribbon, hand
kerchiefs and flag mingled in a wnv
log, varicolored maa.
- It tha vtvat wlnd-nn mm a of
th year, and ther wa a chanc for
any player to win a glory crown by
making the deciding touchdown. Itotb
eleven, It wa evident, were steeled
for tbe contest - '
But, a fate would have it, Clinton
got the north end of tbe field, and a
savage quarterback waited for the um
pire' signal with hi back to tbe girl
In ornngo who wa waving a pennant

But despite till disappointment be
gathered bis strength for the charge,
and as the shrill wblatle struck his
ears he leaped forward straight for
the ball that 1ny ou the line twenty

went whirling through tbe air in a
s.Uty yard parabola, with the whole
Clinton team In pursuit.
The ball landed In the erms of Dnr

lunges. But before a dozen yells had

but llllle better success. Seeing t'.mt
line rushes were hopeless, he gave' the
signal for a kick, and Clinton's full
back sent the bull far down tlio Held.
But Darnall hurled it back with an
other kick. There were triors' close
formation plays, followed by two mora
long distance kicks, while the air was

and the sharp, quick shriek of the um

"Only one mor mtnut to playf"

A GLUTTON FOR WORK.
Kry et the Britlih Civil S.rvloe In

Tho Brlllxh civil service during lb
middle of the last century wa a de
lightful place for young gentlemen who
wished a "Job" with nothing to do.
Mr. Arthur W. A'Becket in bl "Recol
lection of a Humorist" describe bl
first day In tba war oDce. After read
big thrTlmo tbrougb-no short task
and listening to tbe convention of bl
colleague for awhile he ventured to
addrea bis chief.
"Can I do anything? I asked. "Is
ther anything for me to dor
Ho teemed a little perplexed. Tbe
other denbsen of the room paused for
a moment In tlmlr conversation to bear
bis reply. It Keemed to me that tbey
appeared to b amused. My chief look'
ed at me and then at tb papers In
front of blm.
"Ah!" Mid b at last ltb sigh of
relief. "Are you fond of Indexing?'
I replied I waa fond of anything and
everything that could be of the slight
est servlc to my country, if tboee
were not tbe exact words I used, that
wss the spirit of my answer,
I see, a glutton for work," observed
my chief, with a smile that found re
flection on tb face of my other col
league. "Well. A'Becket Just Index
this pile or circular."
I seized npon tb bundle and return
ed to my desk. Ob, bow I worked at
those circulars? There were hundreds
of them, and 1 docketed them with tb
greatest care and entered their purport
into a book. From time to time my
official chief, so to speak, looked In
npon me to ee bow I was getting on.
"I say," said be, "there's no uecd to
be In sncb a desperate hurry. I am
not in immediate need of the index
You can take your time, you know.
Wouldn't you like a stroll In tho park?
VIost of ns 'have a little walk during
the day. We none of us stand on cere
mony and ar quit a happy family."
ut, no; i stuck to my Indexing and
after some three days of fairly hard
work found my labors done, I took on
tbe bundle of circulars, now In apple
pie order, and Inld them on my chiefs
desk.
"I sny. A'Becket." said he. "this
won't do. Ton are too good a fellow to
be allowed to cut your own throat and
for your brother's sak I will give you
tip. Don't do more than you are
asked to do. Now, I gav you those
circular to-Index because you would
bother me for work;, I didn't want th
index. Now It's done It's not the least
bit of use to me. Of course It may
com In useful ome day, but I acarce-
ly ee bow it can, a the lot ar ont of

to save my feelings.
