The girls were not "doing nothing" by any means; but In the light of their nmbltlons for their brother all their efforts seemed feeble and valueless. Ills present term at college could be finished, for-ill the bills were paid. It was the next year that was In ques tion, and as that was a long wny off Mary sensibly decided not to waste any moro pneiev In worrying about it. So she opened one of the drawers of the desk, which had been lier ftners, to get various documents bearing upon insurance and other business matters, fnr tlin nnriiosp of studvlnc them. As tho drawer came onen a piece of folded paper fell to the floor. Evidently it had been caught in the bottom or tno upper drawer and had been dislodged acci dentally. Mary picked It up nud un folded It, wondering rather Idly what It was. She could hardly believe her eyes when she saw thnt It was a prom issory note made to her father for the Rltlll Of $.r00 and sluned by Jacob A. Itent. Several times she read It over to make sure that she understood It. There could be no mistake. The note was in proper form, and though it was long overdue, there was no mark of any kind upon it to show thnt It had been paid. Mnrv knew Mr. Bent slightly. He had had business dealings with her father, and the two were apparently loyal friends. It seemed strange that Mr. Bent should not have called atten tion to the note at the time of Its ma turity, and paid It, for he knew the cir cumstances of tho family. Tcrhaps he Wl forgotteu It; but if he had this would bo an unmlstnkablo reminder nnd, of course, ho would settle at once. Mary's Joy was unbounded. This in deed was "money from the sky," nml, better still. It was amply sulnclcnt tc solve the problem tbnt vexcu iicr mosi. Too happy to keep her good fortune to herself, sho laid the note on the desk nud ran to another room to tell her Bister Elorn nbout It. Tho sister, nat urally, could hardly credit the good news, and after sho mm over It delightedly sho went back with Mary to feast her own eyes upon tho note that meant so much to thein. They found tho floor near tho desk somewhat littered with papers. Evi dently a mischievous breczo had been cutting capers during Mary's absence. With no thought of anxiety the girls nicked up the papers, and Mary looked L- ti. rnmlRsorv note. Sho could not find It. All other papers that she knew bad been on her desk were there. Tho note alono was missing. "It must have blown out of the win dow." said Elora, faintly. Their hearts were heavy with appro ben ion now, and they both leaned out of t o window nnd craned their necks n wh directions. There was no sign S u,e o? SroP of paper they want i 'rnov wont out of doors and search- "I wish you hadn't found It, Mary," ild Elora. This remark roused the elder sister, and Inspired her with courage. "No," she exclaimed, "that isn't the way to look at It. The finding of the paper shows that Mr. Bent owes us that money. As he owes It, of course, he'll pay it. I'll go at once to him and tell him all about It." Within an hour Mary was In Mr. Bent's ofllce, telling her story with ev ery conlldenoe that he would need but a reminder of the obligation to meet It forthwith. He listened to her Inter estedly, saying nothing until she had finished. Then, "I'm sorry for you," K.-ilil be. "but von must learn a lesson from It not to leave papers of value lying about." He stood to Indicate that the Interview was at an end. "But, Mr. Bent," faltered Mary, "you remember making the note, do you not'" "Iteally, Miss Thayer," was his cool response, "you speak as if you expected me to pay you for your carelessness. If you have any claim against me, bring me the evidence of It and I'll at tend to it." That, In brief, was all the satisfac tion Mary obtained from the call. With a woman's persistence slio nngereu even after her dismissal, pleading with Mr. Bent to remember, and assuring him of her need of tlio money, lie simulated sympathetic patience at first, but at last offended her deeply by ask ing her why she bad not made her amount of the lost note $1,000 Instead nf half as much. Mnrv ns too amazed and hurt to re ply, and the further she went from Mr. Bent's ofllce the more she suffered. There was now an added Incentive for recovering the note. It seemed to her thnt tho monev It called for could not bo worth so much to her as the means of satisfying the man of business that she was not trying to Impose upon him. To this end she and her sisters macie another search of the house and neigh borhood. They made Inquiries of all the people who lived near, with the re sult that ash-barrels were overturned, scrap heaps scattered and excursions of small boys encouraged beneath stoops. It all came to nothing. The note had disappeared, and the girls themselves at last gave up hope of find ing it. a hnnt n woelc hud nassed. The little "?500.'' The boy certified the fact to his companions, and they talked about the matter with tho keenest Interest. Heturnlng from a trip to market, Mary Thayer overheard a youngster declaring his willingness to bet that there wasn't another bird In the city Whose house was worth $.ri00. She had striven to forget the lost note, but the mention of thlH Ktnn .iioiikciI lir.r r.nrl. osity; not that she connected It with the note, but that the amount exercised a kind of fascination for her. Knowing me ciniuren wen, sae asKeu tneni wnat they were talking about, and when they told her her heart seemed to stand Still. She went tn tlio wnrltmnn nnrl begged him to let her look at the nest, a request lie granted reauuy. Mary climbed the short ladder, and was satisfied with one glance that hero was ine evidence .Mr. lsent demanded. Very carefully, so as not to destroy the. new nest, she pulled the paper out. It was crumpled and soiled, and a corner had been torn out by the bird's sharp beak, but all the writing was Intact. The young manager had learned a lesson from her previous call upon Mr. Bent, and when she went to him with the recovered note she took a friend along. It Is not neccssnry to narrate tho conversation. Mr. Bent blandly ac knowledged the genuineness of the doc ument, and ignoring his former refusal to remember having given such a note, made payment In full on the spot. "It's moro like monev 'from the sky than before, Flora," said Mary, on her return home with her treasure, "for the bird was keeping It for U3 up In the air." Evening News.

A man with a German accent and a fierce red mustache walked Into one of the banks the other day and announced that he wanted to open an account He was directed to the proper official, and from a well-worn belt extracted 500.
