Overreached Himself.

There is no man more pleasantly sit
uated than the country editor, SO call
ed, who has well equipped printing
office in a good town. with a fair share
of the county printing, a good circula-
ton and plenty of jobwork and adver-
tising. 1t may be that he takes turn
occasionally at working the press, max
ing up the forms or even setting his
own editorials in type, but he takes an
honest pride in being able to do these
things. He is willing to give every
man his due, but insists on his own
rights and dares to maintain them.
Such an editor was Colonel Blk Of
BOomtOwn. A customer whom he knew
as a close fisted man came in one day
to get a hundred sale bills he had or
dered the day before. The editor hand
ed him the bills neatly tied in a pack
age. The customer united the string,
laid the bills on the imposing stone
and proceeded to count them.
Editor Blk watched the count. When
it was concluded, there proved to be
six over and above the hundred. With
out a word Blk took the six extra bills
off the pile, crumpled them in his hand,
threw them into the office stove and
smilingly bowed his crestfallen patron
out.-Y Outh's Companion.

Everybody said, when old General

ltically wiped out his entire fortune.
that Evan Ai1sworth should establish
himself as a florist. Several of their
set, they argued, who had suddenly
found themselves compelled to earn
their own living had followed this
course, and ''the set resented innova-
tions. Moreover, the AiDsworth con
servatOries had been famous.
Precisely because everybody had
suggested a florists shop Evan Aims

very we'll at first, he argued, when
your shop is a novelty and people
bought flowers in the name of sweet
charity, but he knew little about flow
ers, not enough to make the business
AN independent success. On the other
hand, his amateur photographs had
gained distinction at various eXhibi-
tions. Very sensibly he decided to de
velop this talent, and so he secured Il
position as operator in an obscure gal
lery. where he could gain experience
with skylight work. Two months later
Evan Ainsworth was practically for

For this Evan was thankful, for the
dark days following his fathers death

peated visits of self constituted adj
visers, who failed to appreciate the
fact that there are some men who
would rather earn less money indie
pendently than be dependent upon bOr-
rowed capital for the success of a
hazardous venture. 1t cut him a little
at first as one by one his friends drop
ped off, but in the end he regretted only

short the moment I hear that she has
entered into communication with young
AinswOrth."
A letter which Evan had sent to her
had been returned unopened with
curt note from Armstrong Hope init
mating that he desired all further
communication between AinswOrth and
the Hope family to cease absolutely
and assuring Evan that he had taken
steps to see that this desire would be
carried out.
Evan. instead of assuming mourn
full air. went industriOusly to work
and within two years so advanced him
self in his profession that he was en-
gagged as chief operator in the \most
fashionable establishment in town.
Two years of hard study, supplement-
ed by none too luxurious living the first
year. had wrought marvellous changes
in his appearance, and none who com
mented on the excellence of his photo

man who at one time had been weft

proud to remind his old associates Of\
his existence. and they in turn had
quite forgotten him.

Ainsworth carelessly lifted the plate
and held it up to the ruby light. Then
he gave n start. for there was Eve

face of the woman he loved dearer
than his life. Pulling himself togeth-
