 MT. Montgomery, who will be next to the new manager, said that in the ten months of his conenctlon with the com pany he had formed decided attachment for MT. Vandiver, and had found him kind and considerate at all times. He was sure that the company had lost val uable man from it's executive head. He however, saw in MT. Chambers the man trained by the retiring executive. and looked to great things under his care. 'I feel sure, sir he said as hetnrned to MT.

nurses found her trifie hard tC work

snubbed more than once, which did
not, however, prevent him from knock

into hanson; for Frank Ashton knew

Arrived at the Pagets, Marjorie
made her way up the large staircase,
and having greeted Bee, passed on
into the crowded room. At the far end
seated on luxurious divan, was Paul

Together they strolled into the dim

"Ah, Marjorie" he was beginning to
say, when a high-pitched voice was
heard, and stout, plain woman,
whose personal appearance bore more
evidence of dollars than refinement,
stood before them.

brown-eyed Sister Marjorie, whom he
had loved for years. Marjorie frankly
told him that she liked him, but that
was all.
Marjorie was taking well-earned
rest in her large sitting room one day
when nurse tapped at the door.
Come in said Marjorie sleepily.
The nurse entered--a pretty blue-eyed
girl in neat cap and apron.

Dearest Marjorie-Do make spe-

Several nice people are coming-among
them Paul Burton, the poet, who was
so gone on you at Lympstone. He
asked after you the other day, and
would like to renew acqaintanceship.
Ever yours, Bee Paget."
For a minute her heart beat to suf-
location. Her memory carried her
back to the year before she entered the
hospital and an episode that only Bee
raget knew of, and even Bee did not
know how deeply it had affected her
and treated it merely as joke
How long ago it seemed, that sum-
mer which she had spent with Bee be-
fore her marriage! Mr.. Paget was
staying there, too, and his absorption

Burton did not neglect his opportunity

With the refinement of cruelty, Bur
ton made Marjorie understand he was
welded to his art, and to art alone,
and poor Marjorie's love was such that
she thought 1t noble thing, and loved
him all the better for 1t.
And for all these years she had re-
mained true to her ideal, though Paul
had passed out of her life completely
And now there was an invitation from
Bee inviting her to meet him.

youths who have grown to famous

Congress, and in 1861 was elected to
the State Convention, where he voted
for secession and where he was elect
ed to the Provisional Congress. He
was appointed Postmaster General. Of

that place and was acting secretary Of
the treasury for a short time near the
close of the war.
Judge Reagan took an active part
in the reconstruction, c0unseling pro-
lection and rights for the negro. He
was returned to the Federal Congress,
serving there for ten years, and took
his seat in the United States Senate in
1887. After leaving the Senate he be-
came chairman Of the State Railroad
Commission of Texas, from which po-

the time Of his death Judge Reagan
was engaged in writing his autobiog-

Regardless of its tempting charms;
