to the subject

beyond any possible chance that they
really are the right persons-the final
right persons. Every engagement should
be thoroughly subjected to the third
person test"
Jack frowned. 1t seemed to him that
the dearest girl in the world was talk
ing nonsense-chilling analytical, dis
quieting nonsense.
Il believe in letting we'll enough
alone" was his pointed comment. but
long after he had turned his back upon
the moonbeams that night and fallen
into deep and healthy slumber Felicia
sat at her chamber window, her chin
pillowed on her hands, possessed by
the thought that possibly out in the
great world somewhere there was what
she called her ultimate love"-a man
before whom Jack would pale as other
men had done before him. Some way
the thought made her eyes grow wide.

breakfast the next morning, he strolled
over, as usual, 1.-The Danbys arrived

meet Miss Dandy. Oh, come on" he
continued as Felicia looked down at
herself with debating eyes. you
needn't ever expect to look better than
you do in that pink linen. 1t would be
work of supererogation if you did"
Thus beguiled, the young lady yield

path that skirted the hedges and talk

never a word of the thing that was
nearest her heart.

Do men like herr" were the questions
that were running through her mind.
OF course as his mothers guest Jack
would have to pay her a good deal of
attention.
Hurry upr' she ordered suddenly,
feeling a quick, breathless need to find
out for herself just how seductive Miss
Dandy was, and five minutes later she
was greeting a tall. dark girl whose
eyes and smile nullified all attempts at
criticism.
Jack, too, seemed impressed by the
unusual character of the newcomers

ugly. Then she would turn those won

smile, and forever after you watched

Even in that first hour Felicia trem-

noticed that Jack was as irresistibly at

whole minutes he had not once looked

Would Take 1t.

He was a theatrical lover and she
didn't like his style in the least.
He was constant in his devotion,
however. and that made matters
worse. She had tried gentle means to
get rid of him. but he had disregarded
them with painful persistency.
In this moment of her desperation
he felt it incumbent upon him to pro
pose to her. as men under similar cir
cumstances so often do.
Dear one" he exclaimed. hurting
himself tragically at her feet, 81 love
you. My life is yours. Will you take
it?'
She did not look like murderess.
Mr. Singleton" she responded, with
calm determination, II will"
He gazed at her rapturously.
Don't do thatr' she begged. drawing
back from him as if in horror. Il have
taken your life. as you requested me
to do, and you are henceforth to all
intents and purposes dead"
He seemed dazed.
Il do not. Mr.. Singleton" she contin-
ued, turning aside. "desire to have

dnot go away at once l shall send

Then the dreadful situation in which
his own precipitate folly had placed
him was revealed. and he removed
himself with promptness and dispatch.

client.

The Story Of a Tenor.

The numerous incarnations Of Max
i'm Gorky, the celebrated Russian writ
er, who Is soon to be tried at St. Pet
ersburg, have been many times re-
counted. He says himself In his mem
oirs that he has practised nearly all
the trades. To-day the "Menestrel"
informs us that instead Of winning
fame in literature he came near be-
coming a great lyric artist. He was
associated in his childhood with
Schaliapine, who later became celebart-
ed all over Europe as an opera singer.
One day Gorky and Schaliapine pre-
sented themselves together for posi-
tions In chorus. Gorky was found
by the jury to have an eQuisite tenor
voice and was received unanimously.
Schaliapine on the contrary, was re-
fused, the jury not being at all pleased
with him. In his books Gorky often
makes his characters sing. and he
never fails to describe with the skill
Of a connolsseur the qualities and the
timber Of their voices. He tells some
where about amusing himself with
singing when he was working for a
baker: 1T was" he said, "a horrible
existence which music alone rendered
supportable." He left this bakery to
work on q railroad. One night as he
was guarding some bags of iiour, u
heavy storm came on and gust OF
wind suddenly loosened the oil cloth
which protected them. Gorky climbed
up on the pile and was doing his best
to fasten down the oil cloth. When a
still fiercer gust bowled him over and
threw him to the ground with such
force that he lay there all night I'M
conscious exposed to the cold In con-
sequence of this accident, Gorky was
attacked by throat disease which
rendered him dumb for several months
When he regained the power Of speech
his fine tenor voice was replaced BY
gruff and hoarser bass which he was
destined to keep Paris Debats.
