The closing of the great lumber mills
at Glenbrook, Nevada, is an object les

friends may study with profit. These
mills have been in operation twenty
four years, says the Stockton. Cal,

treated his employees as friends and

about to enter the elevator one morn

pute between the earl and the law
yer. Lord Caraven wished to have
the ceremony, performed quietly and
away from London-Arley Ransome
insisted that the marriage should take
place at st. George, Hanover Square.
And so, my lord he said "let us

Lady Richie succeeded, and Hildred
rejoiced in the attendance of bright,

would be acknowledged one of the
most beautiful women in England.

The day before Hildreds wedding
day the HOllies had been one scene of

been SO many visitors, the number of
presents was so great. Late in the
evening, a magnificent bridal bouquet
arrived from Lord Caraven. The wed

trunks containing all that was needed

wore a dressings gown Of white, soft,

negligently over her shoulders, her
eyes were bright with unshed tears.
1t was a sweet, sad, girlish face; a
motherly woman looking at it would
have drawn the girls head down to
her breast, and have soothed her with
loving words. The morrow would be
her wedding day; the tired servants
were all sleeping, her attentive little
maid had gone to rest, her father had
retired quite early to his room. The
morrow would be her wording day,
and they had told her that she could
live without love. Her wedding day!
