20 speak, but a messenger opened the
door and handed Walker a telegram.
He tore 1t open and read:

The young mans lips quivered, his
face turned white, he read the tele-
gram again, half dazed. The father
held out his hand. and the young man
passed him the telegram. The elder
man read 1t. The expression on his
face passed from indignation to scorn,

A Job in the Yukon.

When the Yukon was in the throes
of a territorial election a couple of
years ago, one of the closest observers
Of the rather turbulent politics which
characterizes the far North was Chief
Isaac, ruler of the Moosehide Indians,
a tribe living near Dawson.
The chief, who is exceedingly
shrewd, heard the words "job" and
"jobbery" often used in the campaign
speeches, and endeavored to ascertain
their meaning, but without much sue
cess. He noticed, however, that
money was always mentioned in con-
nection with the two terms, and after
considerable reflection called on one
of the head officials of the territory.
ME wantum job" he announced.
"You want work." asked the official
in amazement.
mo wantum work." declared the
chief haughtily. "Me wantum get rich
quick, Me wantum gov'ment job.

The culture of ginseng has been
greatly advocated in some quarters
in America during the past few years,
and owing to the large prices said to
have been paid for the roots and the
enormous profits which it is claimed
can be made by growing ginseng,
quite a number of persons are trying
to grow it. Ginseng is not, however,
an easy crop to grow and requires a
great deal of care. It also takes five
years before the roots are large
enough to sell. Some persons are
growing it successfully, and hope to
make money out of the sale of the
roots. 1t is thought by many disin-
terested persons that more money is
being made out of the sale of the
seeds and young plants to prospective
growers than will ever be made by
the growers themselves, as the mar.
ket will probably become overstocked
with ginseng and the prices reduced.
The market for ginseng is China, as
the roots are used by the Chinese as
a drug. There are many surer in
vestments for capital than the cul.
ture Of ginseng.

II want you to meet her, Percy. And
want you to be the best man at our
wedding next week." said Walker
Graham, as he and his college friend
stepped into hanson cab.
Then you really mean to marry
her in spite Of your fathers opposi-
tion?" and Percy Smith, carelessly
flecked the ashes of his cigarette as
he spoke.
"Yes. I'm sorry he does not want
me to, but he has never seen her. He
refuses to see her."

Percy Smith said no more, but he
mentally thanked the gods that his
money was his own. Just then the
hanson stopped before a smart little
family hotel, and the two young men

languidly on an Oriental divan piled
with silken cushions. Graham kept
his eye on doorway draped with a
red and gold brocade portiere, while
Percy let his eyes wander over the
room, and summed up what pieces OF
art his wealthy friend had contributed
and what pieces evidently belonged to
the lady herself. He whistled softly
every time he made decision, and
beat the BLUE Danube" with his
fingers on his knee. Soon the portiere
raised and young woman entered.
Graham almost ran to meet her, while
Percy sat surprised, admiring and ex.
pectantly waiting.
The young woman was scarcely five
feet high, exquisitely built, and hard
ly %, with nose and mouth like the
chiseled bust of Adonis, and a mass
of golden hair brushed back from her
white temples. Her color was like the

gray, belted in around her small waist,
and falling in soft clinging folds about
her slender figure. On her breast was
a red rose, that rivaled the red of her
lips.
She nodded to Percy and then put
her little strong white hand in his as
greeting, and he half heard a MUIR
muir I'm so glad to see Walkers
friend" while his head turned dizzy,
and his heart beat light against his
white waist coat. Then she sat down
opposite him, and Graham drew q
stool to her side, and the three talked
and laughed together. She had way
of putting men at their ease and yet
never letting them forget her beauty
nor the fact that she was frail, deli
cate little woman. whose cruel hus-
band she had just been forced to d.
vorce, and that she needed mans pro-
lection and friendship. And Percy felt
his heart expand with sympathy for
his friend Graham, and a sympathy
also for the little thing who would
probably be ''cut off" with Graham.
Then Graham ran down to get some
fresh flowers for the vases, and Belle
Dumont unburdened herself.
"You see, his parents do not fancy

BEST POSITION FOR WORK.
Facing the East Is Recommended by
an Authority.

an Authority.
To test the truth of the assertions
Of many persons that they sleep bet
ter with their heads pointing to the
north, work better facing the east, and
SO on, Dr. Charles Fere, who Is well
known for his studies in physiological
psychology, has constructed delicate
machine which he calls an ergograph,
with which he has achieved some in
teresting results. This machine reg
listers the number, rapidity and quail
ity of the movements of the index I'm
ger when writing or performing any
accustomed work.
He announces that his experiments
with it prove that work done by a per-
son facing the west or east is better
by rs per cent than similar work done
by person facing the north or south,
and that when working facing the
west 1t is about rs per cent better than
when facing the east.
This matter of orientation seems to
have an influence upon the nervous
system. due largely, it Is believed, to
the fact that the earth is gigantic
magnet. Many learned men have no
ticed that they sleep best with the
head to the north and work better
facing the west, while at least one
famous pianist finds he plays with
the greatest ease when the piano
faces the east.
It may be that the great migrations
of the human race, all of which have
been from east to west, and the OBJ
served tendency of trees to develop
in the same general direction are in
some way related to these phenomena.

prospects-and yet, what can do?"
Smith did not know, and neither
did she, but he promised to come over
that night to talk it over with her and
had dim notion of putting Walker
up in business for himself, If his faith
er cut him off," and promised to tell
her about it, and see If she thought
Walker would like the plan. Then
Graham returned, and soon the two
left. Graham went back a moment to
say goodby alone, and as he looked
into those clear blue eyes he promised
that nothing should come between
them. And then the two young men
entered the hanson and rode back to
town, each one in spell of admira-
ton and sympathy, and both silent.
The next morning as Graham was
waiting for his gig to drive over and
take Belle for a ride across the boule-
ward and through the park, there
came telephone call summoning him
a. once to his banker fathers Office.
Graham Pater was alone except for
his private secretary, a slim, sallow
young man, who had given all the soul
he had to his work. Every great man
has just such secretary, and de.
mands just so much soul. The secre.
tary sells his soul at SO much per and
holds his job, and learns to eat at Sec
ond-class restaurants, and travel in
Pullman coaches. The work and sec
ond-class restaurants and Pullman
coaches take the place of the soul un-
til the great Reckoning-and perhaps
they do then.
The Elder Graham wore his most
sanctimonious look-which was most
terrible and awe-inspiring. He held
a parchment in his hand. He ad-
dressed his son:
II have just made my will, Walker
Graham. will tear it up and make
new one, or file this one in half an
hour"
Walker nodded, and took a tall
leather chair opposite the fiat mahog-
any desk of his father.
"In this will have cut you of with

Graham. II have also provided that
