Sir Percy was extremely diverted at
the notion Of a slip Of a girl taking care
Of a member Of that great body which
had its origin at Runnymede in the far
of days,
The stars were coming out in the wintry
sky and it was yet some little distance
TO the streets where the gas lamps nared.
1t was an enchanting walk to Sir Percy,
and without a word being spoken con-
cerning a street car, or a cab. Sir Percy
and Lucy Armytage walked together
along the quieter streets 20 the very door
Of the big hotel
Lucy Armytage went upstairs to her
room, the typical hotel bedroom, but
which she mad transformed into soge-
thing resembling herself She had been
proud Of the bOWeTliIe air she had given
the large square room, and had regarded
with confident admiration the spotIess
muslin curtains and the thin white drap-
cries over her little bed. Now she looked
about her with dissatisfaction How un-
Ike # was to Eleanor Chantrey's beauti-
full and artistic room, And then Eleanor
had an exquisite yellow boudoir. in which
Lucy ynCe had tea With her. How mucn
beauty and ornament and luxury was in
Eleanor's life For the first time Lucy
Armytage began to wish for something
which could not be furnished in Bards-
town, Ky.
AT least she said, rising and speak
ing TO herself, Il know I'm provincial 1t
is a great thing to know the limitations
of ones horizon What a narrow. un-
cultivated, inartistic, uninteresting person
Sir Percy CarlyOn must find me after
Eleanor Chantrey!"
At the same moment Sir Percy was
smoking fercely as he made his way
back to his chambers. From the first
moment his eyes rested upon Lucy Army
tage she had commanded his attention.
He had tried to escape from the enchant-
ing spell she had thrown over him, but
all in vain. What was the meaning Of
that stirring of all his pulses. that sud

He reminded himself that he was thirty
eight years old, quite old enough to know
better; that he was the first secretary
Of the British Embassy, and that he had
firmly resolved never to allow himself

American woman. He determined ia
avoid Lucy Armytage in the future as a
disturbing element; in short, he resolved
to take up arms against his destiny.

At the afternoon session James Peabody,
statistician Of the Santa Fe system. who
was invited to address the convention,
spoke upon the subject Of uniform cIassi-

He urged that the present system Of
classification as a basis for the railroads
in making rates should be supplanted by

and which, If put into effect, ne argued
would be fairly disuibutive Of transpor-
tion charges in the United States" The
proceedings Of the day were brought 10 a
