SCARES MADE FORTUNES.
Curious Result OF Banks Rapid Run
on Its Rival.

Irish youths attacked the Salvation
lists in a Monmouthshire town, Eng
land, some time ago, and one of the
worst riots of recent years ensued. The
Irish quarter was sacked and Goo
Irish driven out. During the fighting
one Of the Irishmen, who had not had,
personally, anything to do with the
rioting, got down an old blunderbuss,
which hung on his cottage wall, in
order to protect his home. With its
aid he kept his assailants off. In put
ting the heavy weapon back upon its
hook, the chair he stood upon broke,
and the blunderbuss fell on the stone
floor, splintering its wooden butt,
which was found to be partly hollow
and the cavity stuffed with rolls Of
paper. These proved to inclose will
dated 60 years before. 1t was that Of
the great-aunt of the Irishman, and 1t
left a sum of $4,000 to his father The
man took the papers to lawyer, and
within six months recovered money
with interest A curious case OF a
scare benefiting the very people it was
" ONNO1AON AAA "a
Yorkshire town in 1872. The place
had two banks, between which Bit
ter rivalry existed. At last one firm
began a campaign of Islander, which
ended in a panic and a regular run
upon their rivals. But the latter were
forewarned and forearmed. They wait
ed till the crowd was thick around
their doors, and then drove up cab.
A way was made by the police, and a
huge chest of gold lifted up the steps
and across the counter. Five min
utes later UP came another cab, with
another large consignment Of coin.
The game was kept up merrily, and,
as the spectators had no idea that the
! chests were dummies, full Of pig iron,
and only covered at the top with coin,
the scare began to abate and soon was
over. Not only that, but the story
! spread through the countryside that
BIS must be rolling in money and
good people to bank with. The result
was that many took their accounts
from their rivals and gave their money
to B. s keeping. Within two years the
other firm had gone under.

CHAPTER XIV

When and where, indeed? She could
not hope for a meeting so romantic as
that Of her two cousins had been; and
yet in what other way could her lover
seek her presence?
For you must bear in mind that the
parent birds had no idea that their
scarcely fedged nesting had tried her
wings in SO bold a flight. Rose in
love! Rose, who had scarcely given
up playing with her doll! The thing
was simply absurd
So the young lady sat alone In her
room, and stared at the letter, and
wondered what on earth she should
do, and wished she had a confidante
who would give her some advice as to
the best way OF extricating herself
from the dilemma 1t would not do
TO speak to her mother, and Catharine
would only laugh at her. At last she
thought of Marjorie, who had a ro-
nance OF her own. and thereby would
know how to sympathize with another.
She went.
She found the lady alone in the tur-
ret-chamber. Charles was smoking a
cigar, in fear and trembling, In one of
the empty attics, and at the same time
getting Heath of fresh air. So Rose
had her cousin all to herself and told
her tale without much loss of time.
Marjorie listened silently.
We'll" she said, when Rose had
finished. the old fairy tale is true.
The Princess Perfect may be shut up
in the highest and most impregnable
OF towers, and guarded by the hercest
OF dragons, yet in one way and another
Prince Imperfect will continue to get
up the stairs, and fall at her feet all
the same. 1t is ccurious, and, at the
same time, very edifying"
But | am not Princess Perfect. -"
said Rose
True"
Nor was shut up in a tower"
IF you had been 1T would not have
mattered. But never mind that-do
you want to see the Prince?"
''Ah, yes
THAT is frank and to the purpose.
why uld you let MIN go!
He thought fiirted, my DEAR" said
Rose. firmly.
"Oh, indeed" replied Marjorie, with
little cough. Men do take queer
fancies into their heads now and then
very"
However, will do all can to help
you-though, of course. you must
promise to be very good, and never
under any consideration, to firt
again"
"Tll promise"
Then the best way is for you tc
come to us."
"Where?"
Il don't know-Ill make Charles
take house in town. Now that We
have scared your poor papa to death,
suppose that We are not wanted any
longer here"
Poor papa"
Yes but 1t will do him good In the
end. Is he up YETI"
