"Von either attend to biisliMtis," he
said, "or Ml i not ln-r Job:''

I nan wallldK for Bomclliing to turn
tip when 1 caught him making eyes at
tllv; 'I.Shl.Slilllt le.'o her In the school of

it'll (lay lie handed mo a iloz.cn roses
ami said:
"SainnilH, It la our duty, no matter

"Should you aee. Miss AMcii of I ho
fourth, you ran band lier tbls. Here
la a slip of paper on which la written
a few word i. Don't clve my name

I toolf thi' I". liquet down to old Mr.
Criihaui on the fourth floor and told
h 1 ii i In ild rely on me to keep still.
The slip of pup T paid Hint the bompiet
was from one who admired at a (IIn
to lee. and the old man smiled lis lit
aid:
"I'm no masher, but I've known for
a week past that I bad an admirer on
the fourth tloor."
The next iimmlng I slipped a notu
under Mr. Wassoon's door. It was a
note of thanks. I.ate In the afternoon
old Mr. Graham railed me In.
"Saininls,'' he bean, "lu re Is a box
of chocolates. I wish I hem delivered
to the person who remembered me
yesterday. Yon need lvo no name."
The chocolates went up to Mr. Wim
kooii. He smiled like a June morning,
but asked no ipicstloiif!. It took me
three days more to pet the thing down
fine, but at length all was ready that
Is, Mr. Wassoon and old Mr. 'Ira ham
appeared on the fourth floor as the
clock struck jo
At that moment Miss Alden came
out Hot h men smiled nnd bowed,
liolli observed In the snnie breath that
It would ulvc them the utmost pleas
ure to escort her to lunch. Hut she
drew herself tip and mild:
'Torinlt me to pass, please. I don't
know either of you."
Nile had been out of slight two min
utes before they recovered. Then Mr.
Wassoon turned on Mr. (Irahnm.
"You old viper, you must have been
poisoning this woman's mind against
me!"
"You cock eyed buzzard, yon have
Blandered me!'' yelled Mr. (iraham.
They pitched Into each other, and It
took live men to separate them. After

Snow Installs Disc Sh;trpnor
An at. status that will meet with
the approval of all orchanlists and one
that will render them great service has
been installed by W. (i. Snow in his
Fourth street blacksmith and wagon
shops for the purpose of sharpening
discs. The axle and discs are set in
the machine and started revuvling,
while the sharpener makes the edge of
the disc like that of a butcher knife.
The sharpened implement is a hundred
foal more ellicient than one with a dull
edge. Numerous growers havo in
spected the new apparatus and found
it to their liking. j
