Mr. :xiw r!e won
I quite a suiu. then lost It and «iuite a
j larger sum. Miss Kentwood soon
evinced a disposition to plunge. When
their evening's amusement was over
j Mr. Lowrie was minus 1,200 francs
( and Miss Kentwood 700 francs.
T h e next morning there was an ex-
| change of notes between them ; not
j only written notes, hut banknotes. Mr.
j Lowrie wrote Inclosing 700 francs and
j saying th at he had drawn the balance
of his letter of credit to restore a loss
j th at would doubtless fall heavy on
Miss Kentwood. Miss Kentwood wrote
I inclosing 1,200 francs, begging Mr.
| Lowrie to accept it as a loan. She
: would be obliged to cut short her trip,
I but tills was more than made up by
j the pleasure of serving one whom she
had come t<> appreciate highly.
On receipt of this noble sacrifice Mr.
Lowrie cocked his head much as one
j who had discovered a “m are’s nest.”
Miss Kentwood received Mr. Lowrie’s
benefaction while her maid was pre-
paring her toilet for breakfast. She
burst into a laugh. Mr. Lowrie was
to call a t 10 o'clock, and when the hour
arrived she went to the hotel reception
room, dressed to go out with him, but
instead of being in plain clothes she
wore a $.‘¡00 street costume. Advancing
to hor visitor, she handed him his do
nation. He accepted it and returned
tiers.
“Mr. Lowrie," site said, for the first
time ndili'ossing him by his real name,
I “we have spoiled a theme for a novel."

the owner of the trunk had Just arriv­
ed, she sauntered into the office and
glanced at the register. T h e Ink was
scarcely dry in the name of Wendell

name entered since the day before.
Miss Kentwood's view of Mr. L a w ­
rence Lowrle's name on Ids trunk spoil­

Miss Kentwood had been suggested ns

OU notice a fine regard for appearance among the
officers from Roundsmen to Captain—that's one
reason they are so keen for W -B C U T Chewing.
The pass-word among these gentlemanly fellows is “ If
you won’t take a little chew don’t take any.’* No need
to disfigure the face, w hen a nibble of rich tobacco gives
more satisfaction than a wad of ordinary stuff—also less
grinding and spitting. Takc a tip from the officer on W-B.
