Il am very glad you came to me,
Henry" she began tremously. Eleanor
told me all last night, and she is very
sorry. But you must remember my
dear boy, that young girls like to as
sert their power. and that young men
are ever impatient"
She peered anXiously at the young
man, but he was sitting with his face
in the shadow. and she could tell
nothing from his attitude.
Eleanor is sorry" she went on anx-
iously. Il have shown her my own
folly and she will profit by my ex-
perience."
Were you sorry?" Miss Littleton
started She had never realized how
like his fathers was his voice.
Yes" she said quietly. Il shall be
sorry until the day of my death"
And would you forgive him and
take him back?"
Miss Littleton thrilled at the tense
ness of the voice. She laughed feeby.
81 don't think your father wants me,
Henry" she said. Il am old now and
not as good-looking as was twenty
years ago. but"
Then Carter did a very strange
thing. He caught her in his arms
and covered the still attractive face
with kisses. Ten minutes later, when
the period of sensible speech had
been arrived at. Miss Littleton be-
thought herself of the younger gener-
alton.
They are all right" declared Col.
Carter cheerfully. when | arrived
last night and found that history had
been repeating itself ! gave the boy
some good advice about happy endings

Counsel for the plaintiff was in the

The witness was local rustic, un-
used to legal tactics and much awed
by court proceedings.

that you called on the defendant one
afternoon. Is that so?"
"Yes, SIR returned the country
man.
What did he say"
Counsel for the defendant sprang
to his feet with an objection. His
opponent persisted. and there was an
appeal to the bench. After a few mo-
ments the judges retired to consider
the point. They were absent nearly
half an hour. When they returned
they announced their decision that
the question was permissible,

Test Of Quality.

Miss Nina Gage, a trained nurse.
and Leroy Leach, the famous rife
shot, were married in New Orleans
the other day. after a peculiarly ro.
mantle courtship.
They had known each other only q
few weeks. but under circumstances
that enabled them to know each 9th
er well, for he was sick and she
nursed him.
The man who can win a woman's
love when he is sick and at his worst
must be worthy of her. And the wom
an who can allay sick mans pain
and lead his narrowed mind from his
little selfishnesses and petulencies
out into the sunshine of love is wor.
thy of the best man ever born.
To some unthinking ones this court.
ship may seem a commonplace one.
There is no dash about it. 1t is not
a brilliant scene set in the glamour OF
adventure or rivalry and attended by
the glitter Of ballroom or by clank
Of sword or by fervid speech that
sounds high to heaven.

A change in the hum of converse
tion in the parlor brought Little Miss
Littleton back to the present. The
boys voice rose in injured protest:
Eleanor's was cold with taunt. There
was moment of pregnant silence. the
shutting of door and Miss Littleton
was already at the doorway to receive
upon her shoulder the fearful face of
the child in whom her hopes were
wrapped.
Slowly, patiently. she drew from
the sobbing figure the story of the
quarrel. 1t was all very childish; the
tale of a girlish assumption of do
minion, boys assertion OF mans
superiority OF independence. Miss
LittAon's heart bled afresh as she
realized how very like her own was
this tale of sweetheart's quarrel. un-
important except for the possibilities
fo- evil it might possess.

TransvaaI Gold.

The ambitions of the Transvaal mine
owners and the possibilities of their
mines do not halt at mere restoration
to the results shown in 1899. says
the New York Sun. The owners WISH,
very naturally. to double their output.
To do that would increase the present
annual world supply of available gold
about one-third. With an abundant
supply Of cheap labor, easily obtain
able from China, these seems no rea.
son to doubt that this could be done
The influx of so considerable an an
nual increase could not fail to have
some influence on the market price
OF commodities whose value is meas.
ured in gold. Bankers and national
treasures would feel it's effects. The
present annual supply may be fairly
adequate for the worlds require
ments. The result of SO very marked
an increase in that supply presents a
topic for interesting consideration.

Little Miss Littleton eyed with ap-
proval the two youthful figures hurry
ing up the village street. Eleanor,
her niece. reminded her so strongly of
that other Eleanor. She could almost
imagine that she was again in the old
southern homestead, and that this girl
was the sister whom she had loved SO
well.
The lad by her side also awoke ten
der memories, for he was very like
Col. Carter, when that doughty war
rior had come courting pretty Mary
Littleton full twenty years ago.
1t was the colonel who had given
her the nickname which had stuck to
her because of its appropriateness
He had meant to give her yet an
other name, his own, but Mary Little
ton was true southerner, and she
could not forbear teasing a northerner
even though she loved him-and in
fit of pettishness he had flung him
self out of the great wide hall one
afternoon and had written from the
hote1 hurried note explaining that a
telegram was summoning him to his
mothers death bed.
He intended to come back, but there
had been an involved estate to SETTLE
and almost before he knew it a year
had slipped by and he had found at
traction in a girl in his own native
town.
When he went back the Littletons
had gone north, he was told. Miss
Eleanor had married a northern man,
and had taken her sister with her.
1t has been quite by accident that
the younger Eleanor had met the son
of her aunt's old lover at the seaside
the summer before His mother was
dead, his father travelling abroad, and
he had accepted an invitation to spend
a holiday with the Merrimans, who
lived not half mile from the little
cottage Miss Littleton made truly
Come for Eleanor.
They had been skating, and as the
pair came up the tiny walk, their
cheeks rosy and their eyes bright
from the exercise, little Miss Little
ton sighed and murmured a prayer
that this romance might not be like
that other one which lay shrouded in
leT IneIuOTy.
Eleanor came into the sitting room
to brush Kiss across her aunt's
check and pass loving hand over the
hair still brown and heavy. She made
hurried toilet before the sitting room
glass and hurried back to the parlor.
where the sound of their voices fioated
back, making music far sweeter to
Miss Littleton's ears than the half
audible notes of the piano. whose keys
Eleanor was lovingly touching.
The dusk grew deep in the sitting
room, the wood fire, Miss Littleton's
one extravaganza, Pickering in the ab-
surd little open crate so threw fam
tastic figures upon the wall patches of
light and shade that peopled the room
as with merry crowd of dream peo-
p,e-companions, perhaps, to those her
thoughts called back from the misty
memories of years gone by.

The Largest Map in the World,

The largest map in the world Is
