One of the young fellows got up and
smiled his way out of the room without
a murmur. What mastery De Venture
had over men and women. The other
young man smiled at Thora and moved
his chair closer to her. She did not
look at him. She was looking at the
woman.
20, Johnnie, Johnnie, they were
wonderful, wonderful days, weren't
they?"
The woman was leaning on the ia
bic. Her great eyes seemed to be de-
vouring John Jones. Her hands seemed
to Thorn to be stretched out in yearn-
ing toward him. She seemed to have
forgotten all else but the man before
her. There. was smile on John Jones'
face that Thora had never seen before,
and could not understand. He was
looking down at the table in rem
iniscent way, toying with cocktail
glass. They took another drink and
another; ThoTa had refused to drink
after dinner
Common politeneSs had been forgot
ten; 1t would not have helped matters,
anyway; it never does when the real
play OF human life and passion is on.
De Venture was at fault. Perhaps it
was the drink; perhaps it was her pas
sion for John Jones. which had not left
her since the days of his early folly.
Thora barely heard her voice, until
she said:
Johnnie, Johnnie, can't we go back
to those days again?"
The woman rose and Thora saw,
through the gathering mist, that she
was moving toward John Jones Her
arms were outstretched

Thora's blood was boiling. She Jump

dining room. The tables seemed to be
Whlrllng about her. She did not see
the waiter who escorted her to the
door. Behind her, after she reached
the street, she barely heard the gentle
voice of John Jones. The crowd on the
street kept her from running from him.
He came UP beside her and said in his
quiet voice:
'Pil take you home. Here's a cab"
Mechanically she obeyed him and
stepped into it.
John Jones took the opposite seat
and did not speak a word until, as she
was leaving him, he said:
There's a note for you under the
rack in the hallway Goodbye"
1t seemed hours before the maid an
| swered her ring at the door bell She
got the note and tore it open, reading:

mother. That woman loved me as no

| Perhaps, as the Irish say the girl
| didn't humble her pride to send a note
| to John Jones; perhaps she didn't show
him he was wrong about that "as no
other woman has loved me since"
Perhaps she didn't and perhaps she

while anothers quivers with pain.

ITEMS FROM EVERYWHERE.

Hamilton Wright Mabie says:
There are some men and women
whose work is so heavy and engrossing
That they have no leisure; but such
people are relatively few in number,
and are. as a rule, at the head of great
enterprises. Practically all young men
and women have some hours from
work which need not be devoted to ex-
ercise and sleep-two things which
ought never to be overlooked or neg
leeted. These unoccupied hours are of
priceless worth if they are wisely
used. They determine the value of
the working hours because they edu-
cate man to use and enjoy what the
working hours bring him. for a mans
ability to enjoy success depends on his
intelligence. his tasks and the variety
of his interests. Many of the most
successful business men have so many
interests, outside of their business,
that they can always give themselves
the rest of change of occupation. and
can get pleasure and profit out of any
form of leisure. They understand that,
in order to use wealth with judgment,
and to get satisfaction and happiness
out of it a man must grow rich in
mind as fast as he grows rich in pock-
et."
An Australian writer says: Zone of
the worst misfortunes which can pos
sibly happen to a growing child is to
have a mother who is perpetually tor
H1ented by nervous fear. If she gives
way to fear-morbid, minute and all
prevailing-she will inevitably make
the environment of her child one of in
creasing dread and timidity. The
background of fear is the habit or in
stinct of anticipating the worst, The
mother who never makes a move, or
allows her children to make a move,
without conjuring up myriad of ma
lign possibilities, embitters the cup of
life with slow poison
A vacation pays as much from the
standpoint of character as from any
other point of view. Just as every
man is a rascal when he is SICK so
the best -intentioned man in the world
may be a brute when he is worn out
physically, and working and planning
Or trying to do so with tagged,
weary brain. The brutal qualities in
a mans nature come to the surface
when he has drained his vitality to the
dregs He loses his self-eontrol and
his passions get the better of him. He
does things which in his soul he con-
dennis. and SAYS things for which he
afterwards hates himself, and all be-
cause he lacks physical stamina. The
long strain of the year has made him
so irritable and exacting that the mer-
est trifle upsets him. He goes all to
pieces over little things which he
would not even notice if he were in
good bodily condition.

It is amazing how many things can happen 10 q man in a short space of time when he is drunk, and how few of them he can remember when he gets sober. Yesterday morning about , o'clock Officer Andrews Of the night police force went into the city jail and aroused q good-looking and fairly we'll dressed young man who was sleeping like a prize winner. He had been brought in some hours before from a soft bed in the middle Of the street where he had fallen unconsciOusly and unconcerned regarding his fate.
 When aroused he stared around blankly and asked where he was at Then he saw the iron doors and guessed the truth. He got up and began to feel in his pockets. The officer asked him how much money he had, ana he said fifty-ffve dollars in gold, q ten and 2 five-dollar bill and some silver. He was then informed that when he was found he only had five dollars and a quarter. Asked ii he had given his money to anybody. he said no, and ask ed if he had been drunk he also an swered in the negative. The officer told him then that he had been tracing
