I bad Ho faith. 1 thought your heart wus of stone.*' Impulabeiy Hyder drew her to Mta. He ciasj>ed iter two bauds iu his, and, looking down at her kindly, be said awkwardly. * “Ho it wits; so it was! You accom plished the miracle It's the first time I've acted ou pure sentiment Let me tell you suoiethiug. Good sentiment is bad business, and good business is bad sentiment. That's why a ri< b man is generally supposed to have such a hard time getting into the kingdom of heav- eu.” He laughed aud went on: "I’ve given <lO,(JUO,tAJO apiece to three uul versifies Do you think I'm fool enough to suppose J can buy my way? But that’s another matter. I'm going to Washington ou behalf of your father because I- want you Winarry my sou. Yes, I want you in the family, close to us. I want your respect, my girl. I want your love. I want to earn it. I know I can’t buy it. There's a weak spot iu every man's armor, and this is mine. I always want what I can't get, aud 1 can’t get your love unless I earn it.’ Shirley remained pensive. Her thoughts were out ou Long Island at Massai>equa. She was thinking of their joy when they heard the news—her fa ther, her mother and Stott. She was thinking of the future, bright ami glo rious with promise ugaiu now that the dark clouds were passlug away. She thought of Jefferson, and u soft light cunte into her eyes as she foresaw a happy wifehood shared with him. “Why so sober?” demanded Ryder. "You've gaiued your point. Your fa ther is to I m ? restored to you. You’ll marry the man you love.” "I’m so happy!” murmured Shirley. "I don’t deserve it. I had no faith." Ryder released her and took out bis watch “I leuve in fifteen minutes for Wash ingtou,” he said. "Will you trust me to go alone?” "1 trust you gladly," she answered, smiling ut him. "I shall always lie grateful to you for letting me convert you." “You won me over last night,” he re joint'd, "when you put up that fight for your father. I made up my mind that a girl so loyal to her father would be loyal to iter husband. You think," he went on, "that I do not love tny son. You are mistaken. I do love him, and I want him to be happy. 1 am capable of more affection than people think. It is Wall street,” he added bit terly, “that has crush«*«! all sentiment out of me.” Shirley laughed nervously, almost hysterically. "I want to laugh, and I feel like cry ing!” she cried. "What will Jefferson say? How happy he will be!" “How are you going to tell hitu?” In quired Ryder uneasily. “I shall tell him that his dear, good father has releuted, and”— "No, my dear," he Interrupted, “you will say nothing of tlie sort. 1 draw the line at the dear, good father act. I dou't want him to think that It comes from me at all.” “But,” said Shirley, puzzled, "I shall bttve to tell him that you”— “What!” exclaimed Ryder ••Ac knowledge to my son that I was wrong, that I’ve h «*«* ii the error Of my ways uBd wish to repent? Excuse me.” he added grimly. “It's got to comt* from felui. He must see the error of his way»." W DILLINCttAM COMPANY. prompted “you to suve my father ami take your sou aud myself to your heart. Why are you ashamed to let him see it? Are you afraid be will love you? Are you afraid 1 shall love you? Open your heart wide to us. Let us love you.” Ryder, completely vanquished, open ed bis arms, and Shirley sprang for ward and embraced him as she would have embraced her own father. A soli tary tear coursed down the financier’s cheek. In thirty years he bad not felt or been touched by the emotion of hu man affection. The door suddenly opened, and Jef ferson entered. He started on seeing Shirley in his father's arms. “Jeff, my boy,” said the financier, re leasing Shirley and putting her hand In his son’s. "I've done something you couldn’t do. I’ve convinced Miss Green — J mean Miss Rossmore—that we are not so had after all.” Jefferson, beaming, grasped his te ther's hand. "Father!” he exclaimed. “That’s what 1 say—father!” echoed tohirley. They both embraced the financier until, overcome with emotion, Ryder senior struggled to free himself aud made his escape* from the room, cry mg: "Goodby, childreii! I'm off for Wash ington!” Till “Tlie reii-on so few moose are seen in eaptlvit.i In the parks and circuses of tlie country is not lieeause they are naturally t<><> wild to is* domesticated, but lieeause they usually do not live long in captivity,” said a St. Paul man. "My father was fur many years a set tler in northern Minnesota, and at dif ferent times In Ids experience he had tlins* moose on Ids homestead which recognized Idm ns their master. “All flit* animals were captured when they were very young, and in each In stance it took them only a few days to become apparently attached to father and his small farm. Fur two or thr<*e weeks ho Would keep them fenced in aud then would allow them to roam around at will. They would lie gone for two or three hours, or perhaps half a day nt a time, but always came hack nil right. By allowing them the run of the premises this way they met practically the same conditions as If they were wild in the forest, and therefore were always In good health, but the moment any of them were sliipiied to the city a change was no ticeable. “Two of the animals were sold to city park associations at different times, and in each instance the moose finally died. They seemed willing enough to remain in the parks, but conditions were not such as they were used to, and from the first It was to tie seen that they were falling in health. A moose can stand all sorts of hardships In the woods, but when he Is tn captivity hick of exercise or lack of proper food or lack of some thing else puts him on the down grade, and as a rule lie passes In bis cheeks In a few weeks or a few months at the outside. "One of the animals my father owned was n handsome bull, and he was trained to harness. The anttual could pull a gisid sized load and travel through the woods with a sleigh be hind Idm at a very lively clip. Tills third moose was one day shot by a hunter near the lions«*. So all three animals met with an untimely fate, which goes to prove, I suppose, that man should not monkey with the plans of nature.”—Duluth Herald. *»<«) at tetou gtsKr far • ood «ben ane cepiwd ae.»M * •«» flaa'a fvrara ■«< Itea Tyfamt« «fl Death ” ia »'«them towfla we Hera ftom , t*kk>ie vhe wad ai< eetetotn toft the lisly <» a namae, or a tonake.
