WHY EVELYN Walked.

TVELYN BLATHERDASH was a beau
r tiful girl and as she tripped into a
- Brigham street car on the morning
when our narrative opens she looked like
newly incorporated beauty trust It re-
quired no close student to tell by that my
automobile s-laid-up- for-repairs express
sion that Evelyn knew how a perfect lady
should compOrt herself on a street car
After fishing a nickel out of the portfolio
of her larbOaTd glove and placing it coyly
IN her face she was starting. to rebutton
her glove when a tall manly form dark
ened the rear doorway of the car.
1t was Percivai Chumpkins Two weeks
ago. at a neighboring summer resort, Per-
ciVal and Evelyn had been the most de-
voted of lovers. But just as she had bro
ken him TO turn the ice-cream freezer and
~ deserted her for a blonde whose par
ents kept a servant
At the sight of her perfidious deceiver
the color left EVelyn'S cheeks But she
was a brave @irl. With a mighty effort
she swallowed the hard lump which had
made its way into her swanlike throat
and when Percival passed her on his way
to -@o front platform she never batted an
eye.
Again the roses bloomed in her cheeks
and no one would ever have guessed that
behind the half-disdainful smile that was
playing hide and seek among her face
powder was hidden a lifelong sorrow.
soon awakened to the horrible realization.
Again her face grew pale. She hesitated
for a moment Then she dashed wildly
toward the rear platform and as soon as
the car had stopped slipped TO the ground.
It was not the lOathsome presence of the
man she had learned to despise that had
forced Evelyn to leave the car. No. she
could have stood this and more. for. as
we have said she was a brave girl But
when she realized the frightful truth that
the hard lump in her throat which she
had swallowed was not her emotions. but
her nickel. she knew that she would
have to depend on shoe leather to carry
her down town.

good form not to call while he is a home.
You should endeavOr to forgive and for

Perplexed Peter-If the girl really re-
fused TO eat supper at your expense after

than one glass of ice-cream soda, she
certainly has a deep affection for you.
But this is such an extraordinary case
that we must leave il to you to find out

Sad Results of Reading Maxims.


IMON SURETHING was earning 81
week as bill clerk when he happened
to read Russell Sage's maxims for
yOune men who want to be millionaires.
Simon Immediately set about to acquire
a fortune after the Sage plan
He cut down his expenses until he was
able to put 1913 in the savings bank every
week. Instead of quitting work when the
rest did he would sit at his desk and
work overtime. lie began to have golden
dreams about being taken into the firm
but they failed to pan out any pay dirt.
Instead he got knocked by the other
fellows in the office for working after
quitting time The head of the firm came
to the conclusion that a. man who was
never ready TO quit must be awfuiy
$3.50
Despite discouragements Simon felt
went on manfully. He always kept his
savings bank book on the desk in hopes
that the boss would see il and commend
mis- rigid economy. The boss finally saw
II, but instead of pattinS Simon on the
back and telling him what a promising
youth who could start a bank account on
$500 q week must be dishonest. So Simon
was fired.
Every time he applied for a job he
