pointment crossed her brow, as if she
expected some particular person to pos
sess some particular name which that
particular person did not have. At
last her eyes sparkled.
"My name is Wentworth" said the
young man whose turn itwas.
"Ah! any fayorite place, Mr.. Went
worth?" asked the purser, blandly, as
if he had known Wentworth all his life.
mo, we don't care where we sit;
but my friend, Mr.. Kenyon, and myself
would like places together"
"Very good; you had better come to
my table," replied the purser. 'Nos. %
and 24-Mr. Kenyon and Mr.. Went
worth"
The steward took the cards that were
given him, and placed them to cor
respond with the numbers the purser
had named. Then the young woman
moved gracefully along, as if she were
interested in the names on the table.
She looked at Wentworth's name for a
moment, and saw in the place next to
his the name of Mr.. Brown. She gave
a quick, apprehensive glance around the
saloon, and saw the two young men
who had arranged for their seats at
table now walking leisurelv toward the
companionway. She took the card with
the name of Mr.. Brown upon it, and
slipped upon the table another on which
was written: Miss Jennie Brewster" )"
Mr.. Browns card she placed on the
spot from which she had taken her own.
II hope Mr.. Brown is not particular
which place he occupies" said Miss Jen-
ME, to herself; "but at any rate I shall
see that I am early for dinner, and I'm
sure Mr.. Brown, whoever he is, will not
be so ungallant as to insist on having
this place if he knows his card was
here"

CHAPTER II.

The last bell had rung. Those who
were going ashore had taken their de-
parture. Crowds of human beings clus-
tered on the pier head and at the large
doorways of the warehouse which stoAl
open on the steamer wharf. AS the
big ship slowly backed out there was
futtering of handkerchiefs from the
mass on the pier, and an answering
futter from those who crowded along
the bulwarks of the steamer. The tug
slowly pulled the prov of the vessel
around, and at last the engines of the
steamship began their pulsating throbs
--throbs that would vibrate night and
day until the steamer reached an older
world. The crowd nn the nier became
more and more indistinct to those on
board, and many of the passengers
went below, for the air was bitterly
cold, and the boat was forcing it's way
down the bay among huge blocks Of
ice.
Two, at least, of the passengers had
taken little interest in the departure.
They were leaving no friends behind
them, and were both setting their faces
toward friends at home.
"Let us go down." said Wentworth
to Kenyon, sand see that we get seats
together at table before all are taken"
"Yery good,' replied his companion,
and they descended to the roomy
saloon, where two long tables were al
ready laid with an ostentatious display
of silver, glassware and cutlery, which
made many, who looked on this wilder
ness Of white linen with something like
dismay, hope that the voyage would be
smooth. which, as it was winter pas
sage, there was every chance it would
not be. The purser and two of his as
sistants sat at one Of the shorter tables
with plan before them, marking of
the names of passengers who wished
10 be together, or who wanted some
particular place at any Of the tables.
The smaller side tables were still un-
covered, because the number Of passen-
gers at that season of the year was
comparatively small. AS the places
were assigned, one Of the helpersto the
.purser wrote the names Of the passen-
gers on small cards. and the other put
the cards on the tables.
One young woman, in beautifully
fitted travelling gown, evidently Of the
newest cut and design stood a little
apart from the general group which
surrounded the purser and his assist
ants. She eagerly scanned every face,
and listened attentiyely to the names
given. Sometimes a shade Of disap-

"The Coloric sails in a week, does it?"
"Yes."
"Then shall need at least $500 toget

"Good gracious!" cried the editor.
"There is no good gracious about it,
I'm going to travel as millionaire's
daughter, and it isn't likely that one or
two dresses will do me all the way over"
"But you can't get new dresses made

Cant I? Well, you just get me the

The editor jotted the amount down.
"You don't think $40O would do?" he
said.

"oh, l guess we can throw in the trip

"No; they are young, they are shrewd,

young woman, ,reezily. "John Ken

JUST ONE MORE GAME.


WhoRer's been lively boy
Is like enough to know
How very, very hard 1t was
To leave the game and go,
When little brother pulled your sleeve
And said you'd better quit,
AS you had got the COWS to milk
And kindllng wood to split.
Remember it? OF course you do,
And how you there agreed
THAT you would take the whipping
If whippings be decreed;
And how that he should certainly
Be shorn Of any blame,
II he could only stay until
You'd play anotl Z game.
eAnother game" ah, mighty well
You recollect that phrase,
Z How vividly 1t summons back
The scenes Of other days,
When Jimmy Wait and Roger Brown,
Beside the railroad track,
Contributed their marbles
To your capacious sack.
And how through tears that choked YOU
voice,
And pattered on the floor,
You later told your father dear
You'd loiter nevermore;
And how (alas that ever boy
Should be SO lost to shameD
The next day found you pleading still
For "just another game"
