VOLUNTARILY.

voluntarily.
OF course, he would 90 to work at
something right away, either with his
father OF for some one else He did
not mind the work, but there was a
more sordidly plnching side TO IT.
Doubtless things would have TO be
sold. How he would miss HIS automo-
blles. for Instance. He loved the big,
handsome things like babies. There
were his hunters, too. who knew his
very footsteps.
There was something else, but he
would not think OF IT, II had formed
his chief reason for getting away from
the vision of lights and flowers and
floating gowns. and for having his ma
chine brought around to the end Of the
hotel farthest from the ballroom. that
no one might hear his departure. Al
ready he was ready to start. The
heavy "ker-chugl ker-chugl" spoke Of
tremendous power held In leash and
ready for a touch to loose It. 1t
drowned out the distant intoxicating
strains OF a waltz, and he was glad OF
It. Neither could he hear the soft
swish Of skirts until Miss Tiverton
stood beside him.
ooh, Mr.. Danvers. | have Just de-
cided. You need not wait until Mon
day, you knowl"
For moment Danvers thought the
world was standing on its venerable
head. Then a thought came that hurt,
and he pushed the gate Of paradise
shut
Don't say that" he begged. 1T is
only from pity. because I am down, and
that Is not what | want"
Miss Tlverton laughed, half cried,
and laughed again. Her cheeks
famed, but she vent on, yaliantly,
"Oh, no, you do not understand. They
threw you at my head so because you
were rich. and II turned me. That
great. ridiculous dollar-mark rose up
every time saw you. and felt that
there must be huge for sale written
across me for everybody to read. oh.
stupid, must | brazenly come out and
tell you that I'd rather take you poor
than anybody else rolling in-Billy!
Blllyl Somebody will see you!"
Two hours later the automobile still
stood there alone. It's explosive voice
was mute. but from far down the river
came the "kee-chuckl kee-chuckl" OF
n naphtha launch. carrying Mr. Stan
ton Selby, artist. back to camp and a
suddenly recalled engagement in New

Emperor's Little Joke.

The Emperor Francis Joseph some
times rebukes his officials in a fashion
which, in a less exalted parsonage,
might be looked upon as a practical
Joke. A short time ago the emperor
noticed that the roads were in very
bad condition, so he sent a message
TO the official who was responsible for
keeping them in order that in couple
of days a royal carriage would be sent
TO bring him TO the castle Of Lainz.
On the day appointed the coachman'
who had received his orders, drove the
official over the worst roads in the dis
trict, going at full gallop. with the re-
suit that the wretched man was
splashed with mud from head to foot.
When at last he reached the castle, he
began profuse apologies for the state
OF his clothes to. the grand duke who
received him, but was met with the
laughing reply, 20, that's nothing! The
emperor comes home like that every
time he goes out for a drive" In a
few days that official had put his roads
in perfect order.-Boston Globe.
