The Daily Short Story

| she could not help but regard him
as a flirt. He stayed on the car un
: til she got off and then followed
her, keeping out Of her sight, how
| ever
She entered the Third National
Bank building, and took an eleva-
tor. Walter asked the operator
who the pretty girl in gray was
that he had just carried up
"Oh, that's Miss Blake" said the
elevator boy. She's a stenograph-
er in Lincoln & Adams office"
Walter looked up the Blakes in
the directory and found one Arthur
| Blake, in the insurance business,
living at No. SO st. Paul st. This,
| he concluded, must be the girls Ia
Their. He took walk around there
that night and looked at the house.
There was a light in an upstairs
window and Waiter stood in the
darkness across the street for some
time, hoping that Miss Blake would
appear at the window. But he was
disappointed.
Walter regularly took the same
car as Miss Blake in the morning,
always hoping that he would some
time find her talking to somebody
he knew, so that he could be intro
duced.
Several times he was able to do
her little favor-open the window
| for her, or pick up her handker-
chief when she dropped it. one
would thank him sweetly, but that
was as far as it went. He was too
much in fear of rebuff to presume
to talk to her on an acquaintance
formed in such a way.
Things went along in this way
for year. In the spring follow
ing Walter was seated on the car
one morning when man entered
and spying him, approached and
said:
Good morning, Redmond" It
was one of Walters casual &C
quaintances. He sat down beside
him and after chatting a while
looked up and said:
"Why, there's Gertrude Blake.
I'll have to go over and speak to
her"
| Walters heart bounded
do you know that grip" he
asked, eagerly. Take me over and
introduce me, will you?"
The other agreed, and in almost
less time than 1t takes to tell it,
Walters ambition Of the past year
had been fulfilled. His friend left
the car soon after and Walter and
Miss Blake had chat of Is min
utes. Their conversation turning
to the theater, and Miss Blake ex-
pressing a desire to see a certain
play, Walter asked her If she would
go with him. She said she would,
and they went.
sWalter saw her 2 or 3 times a
week after that, and in 3 months
he proposed to her. He said: 81

REWARD OF PATIENCE

Waller Redmond did not have to
be in his Office until o'clock, and
as it was only O'Clock now and a
delightful spring morning, he de-
cided to take half hours walk be-
fore he boarded the car. He ordi-
narily used the Anderson av. line,
but when at the end of his walk, he
concluded it was time to go down
town, he found it would be more
convenient to take State st. car.
He busted himself with a news
paper. but happening to glance up
as the car stopped at St. Paul St,
noticed ravishingly beautiful girl
coming in. she sat down directly
opposite him, and he glanced at her
furtively all the way into town.
Walter thought of her all day.
He went to a dance that evening,
and in his mind compared the
girls he saw there with the beauti-
full young woman he had seen on
the car. None CT them was so
charming as she, he thought.
The next morning Walter went
out of his way and boarded the
same car he had taken the day pre-
vious, in the hope that he might
see the girl again. He was not dis
appointed. She got on at St. Paul
ST., but did not sit down at such a
favorable place for his inspection
of her as she had occupied the day
before.
The following morning he re-
peated the performance. This time
his opportunity was good, and he
gazed at her SO intently that wher
her eyes happened to meet his she
flushed and dropped her eyes, much
to his discontinue, as he thought

Sheh said she had been attracted
to him before they were introduced
almost as strongly as he said he
had been to her, and piighted her
troth.
He told of his long wait to meet
a mutual acquaintance that would
introduce them.
She laughed. A few minutes
later she said:
"By the way, co you know Eve
Ign Redmond? She and / used to
be warm friends. We still meet
occasionally"
"Great Scott" said Walter. "She
is my cousin. If had only known

PAROLES FOR ALL

OLYMPIA, July 23.-Every pris-
oner in the penitentiary is entitled
to parole, unless he be a murder
er, is in effect the Interpretation
Governor Mead places upon the in
determinate sentence law passed
by the last legislature.
The governor has also decided
to establish the rule that in no
case will he grant Communication
of sentence or a pardon until the
prisoner has been paroled.
To carry out this policy will pos
sibly mean the early granting of
scores Of paroles in many cases
where heretofore no such liberty
was permitted to the convict.
