there seemed to be no Madge visible.
We began joint search. Somebody
headed for the conservatory, and we
became aware of two people engaged
in silent communion IN shadowy nook
of that fern-covered spot Almost be-
fore we could stop and retreat we saw
that it was Madge and Jack, and the

When they reached the Collingwood
door, Madge's eyes were still closed.
Jack had jumped off his pony, and the
Texas-trained beast was standing
there rocklike, with the reins trailing
over its head on the gravel Mrs Col
lingwood looked around her little
helplessly. Then she turned to Jack,
who was holding open the door, and
looked from him to her daughters

But Jack smiled little scornfully,

Rich Men in Need of a Quarter.

There is one newspaper man in this
town who is personally interested in
the silver views of Secretary of the
Treasury Foster. 1t happened in this
way: The newspaper man was de-
tailed to attend the banquet of the re-
publican club at Delmonico's recently
Secretary Foster was there as one of
the distinguished guests. Like many
men of public fame, in DOMINIC his
dress suit, Mr.. Foster had forgotten to
put anything in his pockets. After
making his speech he fastened to the
coat room and passed in his check for
his coat and hat. He was annoyed to
find that he had no change with which
to reward the servants. Turning to
the aforesaid newspaper man, he ex-
claimed: by Georgel Charlie, 1

of them as soon as we discovered all
the particulars of the park adventure.
And the Little Tin God no longer replied
with fierce phillipics against us, our
w>ys, and our north. He was placid,
almost docile. Surely there was a
great change! We prepared to con-
graduate Madge upon the excellent
success of her mission.
But about this time one of US decided
that he wanted Madge for wife, and
told her SO, whereat she sweetly but
decidedly shook her pretty head, and
yet it was thing that all of us had
considered as one of the certainties.
