In a fashionable church on Van Ness

dared app zach him-probabN because
they knew him too wen. So he sat in ma

Presently, however a young woman of
great personal attractions, who vas stand
ing in the aisle with her mother, aroused
his sluggish benevolence He beckoned to
her in a cOndesceuding manner, and made
way for her in his pew. With bow of

1t is a mistake TO imagine that men are
the only makers of millions, said mining
expert to writer. There is scarcely
mining district in the world which cannot
boast al least one woman who has amass-
ed her hundreds of thousands of dollars as
surely and as cleVerly as any mere man. -
There is a woman in the Klondike to-day
who is not merely the richest woman in
Alaska, but who is worth twenty times
her own weight in gold, every once Of
which she has won for herself Three
years ago Mrs James Willis was strug-
Cling to maintain an Invalid husband i'm
Tacoma, when news of gold discoveries
tempted her TO fare forth alone to the
frozen north. For Two years the brave
woman prospected in vain, and many
times was tempted to abandon the strug
gle in despair. Twelve months ago, when
she was acting as cook to a mess of the
Alaska Commercial Company az Dawson
| City, as last venture, she joined party
of cattlemen who had heard of a big
placer strike on the Yukon. and within
a few weeks had staked out and was
working a claim of such richness that
to-day she is worth a million dollars.

and, of course, there was a great deal to
talk about.
"And I understand your daughters are
both married, said the lady from the West
at last
That's right" answered the lady from
the East
do tell me all about it went on the
one from the West II remember the old
theory you had about educating them. You
were going TO let them do just about as
they pleased. and see which acquired the
more serviceable education. Did you keep
that up?'
Il did" replied the one from the East.
"And how did it come OUT"
The one from the East looked thoughtful
and used her fan vigorously for a minute
before answering.
well, I'll tell you about it," she said at
last. You know Jessie took naturally to
higher education while Nellie didn't care
a rap for it,"

Jessie went in for all the accomplish
ments-became proficient in music, lid
| little something in painting, developed in
to an exquisite dancer, and ended by GO
Ing to college"
'Just what I should have expected of
her"
Nellie, on the other hand, acquired
only a very ordinary education, except
in the lire Of household work She went to
| cooking school, and did everything neces-
sary to make a first-class houeskeeper of
herself. She seemed TO take naturally to
everything in that line"
And now that it's all over, which one
seems to have acquired the more service
able educaton?"
The one from the East looked both an
noyed and puzzled.
That's hard Il say" she answered.
after Jessie had finished college she mar
ricd a man who makes only 1920 a year,
and she couldn't get out of the kitchen
