"Mr. Minch!" whispered a still, small voice at the tail floorwalker's elbow. "Mr. Minch !" As the big blonde man did not rec ognize this "still, small voice" as the voice ot bis conscience, he bent his head dowq to observe Lottie Miller, a diminutive bundle wrapper, who was registering great secrecy. "Kin I speak a word to you?" Bachelor though he wus, Donald Minch knew that when a woman asks to say oue word she means a score or more, so he led the girl aside to a quiet spot. "What's the matter, Lottie? Any thing been stolen?" "Nothing like that, Mr. Minch. It's about the picnic." "Aha I" Mr. Minch, as chairman of the en tertainment committee of the nnminl picnic and merrymaking of the Smith Stores, Inc., to be held at Hollidny lieach next Saturday, listened atten tively. "You know that new girl on the gloves?" "Which one?" Lottie sniffed. "Only one worth no ticing, Mr. Minch. Name's Mary Smith I bet that dou't toll you anything." "Don't be sassy, little girl 1" warned the floorman austerely. "There Is an other girl, blue eyes, curly hair and little freckles on her nose. A pretty " "And be never noticed her I" mur mured Lottie, unafraid. "What about her?" "Mary Smith's been crying oft and on all day. She Isn't going to the pic nic I" "Why Isn't she going?" "She won't tell; Just wants to go and can't. It's just tragic I" sniffed Lottie, who loved the "movies." Mr. Minch looked disturbed. "Send her to me, Lottie. I will wait here, Lottie sped away on her errand, and Donald Minch looked watchfully out of the corners of line blue eyes In the direction of the distant glove counter. Presently the dainty form of Mary Smith came toward him. There was timid appeal In her soft glance and a scared look as of one summoned be fore high justice. "You sent for me, Mr. Minch?" lie nodded kindly and took a note book from his pocket and poised a sti ver pencil. "Let me see. Miss Smith, you are In department 30?" he asked. "Yes, sir; gloves." "How lonij have you been with us?" "Four weeks." ' ' lie looked at the open page of his notebook. "You know I am chairman of the entertainment committee of the picnic next Sat unlay?" "Yes, sir," In an awed tone. "I am checking the mimes of those who are going. All employees are ex pected to attend If able. Your name li not checked. Why?" "I am nft.ild that I cannot go, sir, "Er domtstlc objection or trouble?" he asked kindly. Mary Smith smiled ssdly and her smile was beautiful. It startled him. "No home (rouble, Mr. Minch. I have no home my people are all dead, I am quite alone. I would love to come to the picnic, but I am a perfect stranger here and I hae no friends, so I thought I would stay at home.' He shook his handsome bend. "That will not do at all. Miss Smith. It will do you good to come and get acquaint ed with the other worktr. This Is a get-together party, arratiget! by Harri son Smith what Is the nial'er? Are you 111?" Mary Smith was leaning ngiilnst a pillar, looking white and startled. "Oh, no. You were snylng some thing about Harrison Smith It Is common name enough, but I had an nncle by that name." "Indeed? Where Is her "We do not know we never knew n and my father becsine separated when they were quite young men and lost sight of each other entirely. Dad always said be was sure that his brother was dead he traveled all over the world." "That Is very Interesting Indeed, and now, Miss Smith, 1 shall expect to see you at the picnic bright and early Saturday morning. Itussei will be at the store to run you out to the park. lie here at nine o'clock." Thank you, Mr. Mlneit. you are very kind Indeed," she murmured, her pale cheeks growing pink tinder his admiring gaze. If Mr. Minch had known that his eyes were betraying him he would have cloMrd them swift ly, for he was a young mini who ap preciated the responsibility of his po sition with Harrison Smith, Inc., and a remote manner toward the young women of the company was a notice able characteristic. "If you are not there, you will be docked," he told Mary Smith. So Mary Smith went back to her counter, observed by all ber fellow workers. "You certainly atrnek twelve with Mlncb !" remarked Ella Rrady, also at the glove counter. "How absurd!" blushed Mary again, whereupon Ells llrady sent i wink across the sill to Lottie Miller, whose kindly Intervention had changed the world for on girl and for one man. What a wonderful Saturday that was. To begin with. It was a perfect ly beautiful day. Holllday park lis. I been reserved eveiuveljr for the Smith pi hi I c, ami with the fresh green of the trees and arse, nod tlia blue mt the surrounding water, there was nothing more to be desired for a playground. As chairman of the entertainment committee, Mr, Donald Minch was here, there and everywhere, directing games, leading the dancing In the pa vilion, always finding time to help some one else have a good time; milk ing Introductions, seeking out the lone ly and the unpopular ones, making everybody happy. Neither did he neg lect his own pleasure, for did he not dance repeatedly with pretty Mury Smith until her cheeks were as pink as her frock? For his part, Mr. Minch quite made up his mind that a bache lor's life was dull Indeed. Whereupon he sought out Mary and Invited her to atteud the theater with him one night the following week. At this particular moment along came Mr. Harrison Smith, a breezy, opulent gentleman, who shook hands with Mr. Minch and looked lu-iulrlngly at Mary. 'A strange face to me, Mr. Minch. This Is one of our flock, I suppose?" he asked genlnlly. "Miss Mary Smith of the glove coun terhas been with us a month. She says she hus an uncle somewhere In the world who bears the same name as yours." said Mr. Minch, as he pre sented Mr. Ilun lson Smith. "Run away, Minch, while I question Miss Smith I inuy be her long-lost uncle, although I have no strawberry mark on my left arm," snld Mr. Smith. Ah, my uncle Harrison didn't huve one either, but he did have one on his left thumb," laughed Mary. Mr, Harrison Smith calmly held out his left thumb. "What's that?" he asked. "Oh !" cried Mary frightened. "Are you my brother's daughter?" calmly asked the successful merchunt 'My father was Uobart Henry Smith." 'Where Is he now don't answer, my dear. I see It In your fare. I did not know what hnd become of any of his family. I have spent much time and money" His genial face was overcast with sorrow. 'We are alone we two," he said after a while. "You must come and be my daughter." Just then Mr. Minch came along and heard the whole story. 1 "Get all the folks together, Minch. I want to tell them about my adopted daughter." And as Mr. Minch, looking depressed enough over the shuttering of his plans for a wife named Mary, Mr. Smith drew him uslile with a little slap on the shoulder. "There'll be no objec tion on my part If she wants to marry a likely young man In my store, say the general manager, ell Minch?" And Mr. Minch smiled. NEW AIRSHIP LINE PLANNED Luxurious Zeppelins to Fly Between Spain and South America In Near Future. Plans for an airship line between Spain and South America have been completed. The king of Spain Is largely respon sible for Its Inception, and the Zep pelin company Is reported to have re ceived a commission to construct air ships with a capacity of 4..VMMKK) cubic feet, a length of 8-'5 feet, capable of carrying forty passengers, malls and goods, and having a cruising speed of nearly seventy miles per hour, for this service. The details of these vessels, which are given In the English scientific Jour nal, Discovery, show a luxurious cabin with a social hull and ten four berth sections somewhat similar to those of a Pullman cur. The work of construc tion Is expected to take two yeh s, and the service will probably he Inaugu rated In 111-.". It Is anticipated that the Journey from Spain to Argentina will require a little over three days, and the re turn lourney something over four days, the longer time on the eastward course being due to prevailing head winds, says the Living Age, Seville will be the European ter minal and ('nrdoha the Argentine ter minal.
