Iorcneau anu pressed his hand down upon it hard as he turned slowly toward Har- row.
 "Give me that paper" he said hoarsely.
 "I regret to say that have not brought it with me-" responded the Boss suayely.
 "It doesn't natter" said Raymond, wheeling to face the governor elect. "1t doesn't matter so long as you have 1t. And now, John Ainsworth, I've got you where 1 want you. l knew this pledge had been made, but not that it was in writing. I knew why it had been made. I knew that the only man who could prove that it was not a personal bar gain to secure Harrow's support for your self was dead. But I never dreamed that I could get hold of it in black and white. It is the end of you, Ainsworth. Some people might think it a compara- lively small matter. but I know this game too well to make such a mistake"
 ''I have never erred in that way" said Ainsworth with a grim smile.
 "I made a strong fight against you," continued Raymond, "and half the press of the state followed me, but you beat us. You have always beaten me. Now it Is my time. With this scandal at the be- ginning of your administration I can separate you from your only real friends from the men who honestly desire re- form in the government of this state. It is the weakness of tbs reformer that he deserts the man whD has sinned, whatever the mans character may be. You won't have friend in your party when 1 get through with you, Aims worth. I'll begin before you have a chance to make any as governor, and I'll never let up until you're dead, politically or actually, don't care which"
 The fervor with which he spoke, the light that famed from his eyes, bore Ainsworth back for a moment and si- fenced him, while Harrow lowered black ly in the light of the fire and grinned like B demon.
 Miss Herold had moved slowly forward as Raymond had been speaking, and when he ceased the two were face to face.

Ing into the fire.
 It is a curious fact, perhaps worth men, tioning here, that it is nearly impossible for a college bred man to look at grate fire without being carried back to the old days-the days when he was young, brave, free and honest. The phenomenon was familiar to Ainswo-th, ard upon this occasion quite welcome.
 In the obscurest corner of the room sat an old colored man, long a servant of the Ainsworths and destined thereafter to attain some measure of fame as 'the gov ernors shadow" When, presently, Ainsworth arose and began to pace the floor, the black mans eyes followed him with the yearning solicitude that one may see so often in dogs eyes.
 There was knock on the door, and 1t startled both master and man. The gov ernor elect made a slight gesture of the hand. Old Horace stepped softly toward the bedroom of the suit and disappeared therein. When he emerged, it was with a manner betraying anxiety. He put visiting card into Ainsworth's hand.
 "The devil himselfw said the governor elect softly. "Well, I knew somebody would find me, but I hoped it wouldn't be this man-not so early, anyway; not until I'd had time to think it out. Yet it may aS well De now.
 The servitor bowed with his own pecul- far gravity and then went out into the hall by way of the bedroom. Two min utes later he returned with the visitor, retiring to the bedroom after ushering him in.
 David Harrow, party leader In the state, and commonly mentioned in the newspa- pers merely as the Boss, with a capital "B." would have been man of good height if he had ever stood erect, but cer- tainly he never did it in public. He had always the look of one who is beginning to make a formal bow, and his character istic expression was one of mingled so- lemnity and condescension, with an inde- finable suggestion of mockery. His griz- zled, pointed beard lay cloye upon his chest for a moment as he paused before Ainsworth and murmured Good even ing" Neither of the men extended a hand. "You have been the guest of your pro spective father-in-law, MT. Schuyler Her. old," said Harrow. "Why have you de serted him?" The impertinence of this question did not in the least surprise Ainsworth, and he replied frankly:

A NEW YEAR s MABI11
BY A. W. PERRIN.
[copyright. 1901. by A. ". Ferrln.l

1Copyright, 1901, by A. W. Fcuin.l
 The time honored custom of swearing off on New Year's day is as widely obs served on this New Years day as 1t was on the first day of the year o. Every one is swearing of something, from taxes to cigars. To do the things which we ought to do and 10 refrain from doing the things which we ought not to do are what we all resolve at this time of year, though we may never think of 1t all again. If it be true that the internal re- gions are paved with good intentions, this must be a busy day in the street con struction department of Beelzebubs cap ital.
 The pleasure of swearing of, of dream ing of sprouting wings and golden harps, Is equaled only by the pleasure of swear ing on again. Habits are bad things, but the man who has none cannot know the joy that goes with a good resolution made on New Years morning.
 Mark Twain tells of a man who nearly lost his life through having no bad habits. He was ill, and the doctor came. You must stop drinking" the doctor said.
 "I never drink" said the man.
 You must stop smoking"
 "But never smoke"
 ".Then you must not sit up late at night" ..s
 q go to bed every night at half past O." replied the man.
 Then" said the doctor, "I fear there is little hope for you. The only thing left for you to give up Is eating"
 Still, if there is nothing which you can swear off you may find some consolation in making a positive resolve. Resolve to get up at 6 o'clock every morning, take n cold bath and run ten miles before break fast. Resolve that you will become n millionaire before the year is out, that you will be a statesman or a soldier and save your fatherland from the ruin which is always confronting 1t or write diary. Nothing takes more strength of purpose than the keeping of a diary, and if you ever grow to be famous you can sell your diary to some contemplating publisher and add riches to your fame. Leave a record of your inmost life for your descendants to read with pride. If your life is un- eventful, give your imagination play. Above all things, make your journal in- teresting. + must be full of great thoughts. If you cannot think great thoughts, copy the thoughts of some one else.
 A diary is a mans best friend. It is not deaf, but 1t is dumb, unless you will it otherwise. It is the safest confidant in affairs of the heart. If you are difiident, you can leave it where the lady will find it. This clever bit of strategy has con. summated many happy marriages
 Few persons are so placed that they can make neither negative nor positive resolutions, but if you are one of these you can spend the holiday season on the Pacific ocean, where in sailing east day is lost, and, crossing the date line on the 31st of December, you will skip New Years day and it's joys and sorrows.

written pledge is not what you will rep resent it to be. You opposed MT. Aims worth in this campaign; you did all that you could to hurt him; but, so far as l know, the fight was fair. Certainly he never complained, and, as for me, held myself to be still your friend. 1t is not in you to do this thing"
 Raymond looked at her for ten seconds and then turned away with a sheer. At this Harrow stepped forward and laid his hand upon the journalists shoulder.
 You are the man for me-" he said. "You know your friends and your ene- mics. I was d little afraid that for senti- mental reasons you might take another course" And he glanced at Miss Herold.
 "1he written pledgew said Raymond, with white lips. Let me see it."
 Without word, Harrow took the doc ument from his pocket and gave it to the journalist. Raymond staggered half way around the table, supporting himself up- on it and coming at last to face Miss Herold.
 Forgive mep' he gasped. "I had to do it. I had to play the part. It was the only way to get it, and I knew he had 1t in his pocket. You couldn't do a thing like this, Ainsworth. It wouldn't be in your line. But it is in mine. Harrow, you internal scoundrel, look at thisi'
 He sprang around the table, and in sn instant Ainsworth's pledge was lying on the glowing coals. Harrow, seeing his intention, rushed forward, but Raymond, turning, restrained him by steady hand upon his breast. ....e
 "You spoke of the new year, Aims worth," said he. "I have had my thoughts of it. There is lesson, too, that rises from a broken heart like mine. And the sum of it all is that had made up my mind to be square and fair with your administration, Ainsworth-to give you credit for the good you do and op- pose only the evil"
 ''I believe you now, Morton" said Miss Herold as Raymond walked to the door.
 She held out her hand to him, but he had covered his eyes with quick, boy ish gesture, and so, shaking his shoulder free of the grasp that Ainsworth laid up- on it, he stumbled out of the room.
