blazed and her tongue turned readily to censure.
He went upon tour of discovery among various
denominations and to the huniliating con-
cluson that although the word charity was men
toned within church doors more frequently than
elsewhere, the virtue less practised there than
it should be.
He became acquainted with young widow
whose fame great among her friends because
of her almost superhuman struggle to maintain and
educate her two little sons; and for time he was
almost convinced that in the chronological ma

ness, that divine for the helpless, which con-
stitutes charity. But alasl the womans ma
ternity reached only far as her own. To all
except those purely accidental encufnbrances,
which Nature had imposed upon her without her
consent, she was ice-cold She would have walked
over the dead bodies of other peoples dar1ings to
bring peace and prominence to her own; and
Cressey turned away shocked to his innermost being
at the discovery that maternity not conducive
to broad charity, but rather the reverse.
He went into the lowest depths of poverty pur-
suing his search and his heart bled at the distortion
of humanity he found there He realized the fallacy
of the idea that sentimentalists have advanced for
generations, that the dreadful pressure of want
produces the diamond of perfect human character.
He came to know of the distorted souls, cheated
of their capacity for love or laughter even before
their birth, and the injustice of things they

preferred.
In this he was baff1ed,
for Cressey danced twice
with the lily and twice
with the violet, took the
rosebud in to supper, and
absorbed some of the
sweetness of the June
pink while whispering a
few nothings in her blush

the brooding look of fail

cred him enveloping the
poppy in a cloak like a

lost sight of him; and
it was just as well he did,
because he had already
constructed the plot of
his story with the violet
as the central figure, and
it would have given him
a shock to have dis
covered that the flower

the memory of the boy

philanthropic plan was

Knight, the of the pen, the vivisectionist of
souls, knew this well the boy did, and smothered
grin under his scraggy mustache, while mentally
incorporating that failure into his story in the shape
of fetching love-scene. He knew that Cressey
had been insnared against his will by of the
lilies which neither toiled spun, and he was as
certain that the woman there before them, but
he could not read in the eyes of the boy which

with Madonna-like peace and purity in her face;
and one vivacious creature in ruffles and pink

gown, a bunch of violets at her belt. Of this

to describe her in his story, and his smile grew
broad that his mustache scarcely hid it, as he

remarkable for sweetness rather than beauty;

not the least unhappy reflection in the
mind of the young millionaire was that
his own unworthiness was the reason for his
failure. He loved too well the soft radiance,
the harmonies the subtle fragrance of refine
ment which permeated rooms like these;
he loved the texture of rich garments, the
well-nodulated tones of cultivated voices,
the frou-frou of silken skirts, the dreamy
measures of the waltz.
And out there in the group was the face
of one woman which had haunted him
through all his quest-one utterly unworthy,
selfish woman-which had crept into his
heart before he had even started upon his
search. He knew it had biased his iudg-
ment and deadened his enthusiasm

distinction of capturing the largest
number of first medals. the work of
the jury indicates which will be tri-

nal. There is no prospect of any
other county reaching Washington in
the number of awards as that stall
wart old agricultural section leads
with total of ll6. while the second
best, Linn, has but 105
Umatilla undoubtedly will stand
first in the capture of gold medals, as
ii leads Marion by three, and the
other awards to be made will not af-
feet this final figure. All others save
Linn and Washington fall materially
below 100 in totals.
There is a spirit of victory with the
commissioners in charge of the lead
ing counties. They have awaited the
decisions eagerly, to wire the result to
their homes, and yesterday many mes
sages were sent and congratulations
received. AS the awards cover agli-
cultural products exclusively there is
