Roger Falconer had been at homo FOR
three months, and had seen, in spite OF
her mothers precautions, great deal
of Marcella Estart He could not help
remarking the anxiety of Mrs. Estart
and John Penderton to attain their
end, and it was only natural that with
the childish friendship to fall back up
on. and dislike at seeing girl urged
against her will to marry a man old
enough to be her father, he should be-
come what Mrs. Estart called ''unde-
sirably fwriendly" with MarcelIa.
And then one day, when things came
to a point when Penderton proposed
for a fourth time and was refused, and
Mrs. Estart emptied the yials of her
wrath and disappointment on her
daughters head, Roger asked Marcella
TO marry him.

fellow" he said, but I've enough for
two people, and love you. Marcella.

But Roger turned away. He would

1T is tiresome that that young Fal-

the lady. sharply. why? Because
of Marcella, of course. Here she is,

Indian Babis,.

The present generation of full-blood-
ed Indian babies is interesting from
many points of view. In the first
place there is no doubt that in few
years there will be no more full-blood-
ed Indians born, as men and women
of pure Indian blood are rapidly mar
rying either white persons or Indians
whose blopd Is largely mixed with that
of the whites. says the Cosmopolitan.
Then, too, these little copper-brown
babies are something OF an anachron-
ism. for many Of them preserve to a
great extent, the bringing up and
training known to their fathers, and at
the age of 13 or IA find themselves well
versed in the charms Of incantatiors Of
the medicine men and expert In the
use OF the scalping knife, but with a
amentable lack Of subjects upon whom
to practice their skill. 1t is only on
the reservations of the far southwest
that the curious little Indian babies
are to be found. There are now among
the twenty tribes only 5000 full
blooded Indian children. In these
same tribes there are more than 10000
children through whose veins courses a
strain of white blood. They are fat.
healthy youngsters, and despite their
rough usage. grow up to be strong men
and women.

was argued that girls are entering
so many lines of employment and at
such low wages that the entire scale
of payment for labor is certain to
suffer in proportion. No doubt there
is some justice in this complaint.
1t has been made before, but it is a
question if the evils will ever become
as far reaching as some alarmists
seem to think. There is yearly
increase in the number Of young
women engaged in business pursuits
but it has yet to be demonstrated
that the wage scale is to be mat eri-
ally lowered or affected in genei al
on this account. Rather, the ten.
dency is to advance young women to
the same wages paid men in similar
occupations, this advancement keep
ing pace with the increased skill they
which they show in their work. The
chief harm on account of the EN-
ployment of women comes from the
diletante-the young woman who
does not need to enter business life,
but who secures a position merely to
crafty her ambition, and who thus
keeps some needy person out of en-
ployment. But this class is very
small and the ambition soon wears
off 80 that the actual damage done
the bread winners is lnfinitesimal.
Until the actual harm of the employ

strated, it must be assumed that the
