fathers ruin. The thought OF the
poor, gentle girl, made to suffer by her
father, without "A soul to help her, was
too much for the young man. He
loved her quite sufficiently to want to
shield her from any harm. There was
only II thing to do: He must tell
Dempster of Hutchinson's treachery,
and he must persuade Veronica to be-
come his wife secretly. 1t must be
secretly. for no one knew either of
Veronica or of anything else. And SO,
ven to his chief.
Richard Dempster looked very grave
indeed at the news. The two men sat
up all night in consultation. Hutch
inSon was to be dismissed at once:
there was nothing else for 1t. And
then Alan made a request. "Will YOU
send me to Santa Rosa at onCe?" he
said. 81 don't care to stop on here
after | have been the means of getting
rid of Hutchinson; | don't want to
benefit by his fall"
. II shall miss you, my lad said
Dempster. IL had hoped you would
have settled among us; but ! suppose
you have other plans"
He looked at Alan, who Redeemed.
The young man had known for some
time that ever his chiefs daughter
would not have denied him; but then
he thought of his lovely, dark-haired
Veronica. who had no one but him
self. No, he had ruined her father.
she rlust be his care-and a very
sweet care, too. Perhaps not the
ideal, the perfect marriage he had
dreamed of in other days, when soul
goes out to soul. and man and woman
have but one idea, one thought; but
a marriage born of love and respect.
a protective. not a passionate love.
although Veronica was beautiful
enough to cause many a mans heart
to beat quickly.
The very evening he had his talk
with his chief he rode out to La Paz.
but this time not to see Hutchinson.
Veronica would be In the avenue, and
Veronica must be wooed to give her
consent; the two had but u short time.
you will trust me, Veronica he
asked.
ITO the DEATH said the girl: but
Alan, | am afraid If he hears OF your
part in his ruin he will kill you sooner
or later"
"He will hear OF It," said Alan
gravely. 81 am not the man to let
another dc my dirty work. And will
you wait for mo at Santa Rosa, my
darling? | will make all necessary

And so matters were arranged, and
Veronica promised; and this was the
end Of Alan Mackenzie's life in Rio.

TrayeIers' Annoyances,

A clever observer says OF her expe-
riences in a drawing-room car: There
sit directly behind you those who wash
their family linen for the benefit OF the
travelling public, he accusing her of all
sorts OF Irregularities with other men,
whom he judges by himself, and she
defying him to name just one man, and
finally going into Mysteries. Then there
is the woman In front Of you all scent
ed up with white rose, and beside her
is the man who pares and cleans his
nails with a pocked knife and uses the
same blade to pick his teeth. Then

He Is a personal friend of mine. 1t Is

trating voice reached those OF the out
skirts OF the press of the people, mot
to make a mistake In the matter.
Such errors cost a firm dearly some
times. II Is my word against-he

"If you will come this way" the de-
tective said, bowling, the affair will

Young Hazard elbowed a passage for
the trembling girl. She looked up at
him gratefully as she walked by his
side to the managers office. A little
man with a Hebraic cast OF counte-
nance came hurrying In.
"My dear Hazard! There has been an

On the Railroad.

Another woman, one who spends
half her time travelling on the rail-
roads, says: What a delightful world
this will be when one person In 1000
learns to respect the rights and feel
ings of Others. Nowhere does one
suffer more from the selhshness and
disgusting habits of the average hui
man being than In a railway car. First,
the lack OF ventilation has q depress-
ing effect upon n sensitive tempera-
ment and fatigues one quicker than
miles OF walking in the open air. Next
comes the human annoyances. There
Is the peanut eater sitting opposite.
Now, any one who would a peanuts
except in a ten-acre lot or standing on
a burning deck where a certain boy In
history is said to have devoured them
by the peck ought to be flayed alive.
What, then. should be done with the
creature who devours peanuts by the
quart on a railway car where it is i'm
possible to escape their horrible odor?
To me there Is nothing more offensive
