dislike the appearance of it.
1t was quite 10 o'clock before he
heard her light step in the long hall
outside the ROOM
When at last she stood before him
he was held spellbound for an instant
by the radiance of her face. Warmth,
color, happiness, took the place of the
pale, passive, remote aspect she ordi-

story he had to tell her At least so he
interpreted it,
He placed a chair for her, the only
one in the room, and sat down him

He felt rather at a loss as to how he
should deal with her. 1t was hard to
have to disappoint the bright expecta-
ton of that pretty young face.
Would it mean anything to you,
Eunice," he began, surprised at him

softened when he spoke to her as one

"Eunice she has the right to work

her oft reiterated argument.
This brought Enross to the point

she did not reply.

RAILROAD NOTES.

The management Of the Lackawan-
ma Railroad has ordered the station at
Wyoming reopened for passenger SER
vice. 1t was abandoned several months
ago on the opening of the new depot
at Millburn, about three-fourthS of a
mile away. 1t is believed that the
company will stop but one train each
way daily at Wyoming, and that the
number of trains stopping at Millburn
will be reduced.
A petition gotten up by Joy Wheeler
Dow was presented to the railroad
company, asking it to reopen the Wy
oming Station. Mr. Dow and others
appealed to both the State and ma
tional railroad commissioners. 1t was
on their orders, it is said, that the
company consented to reopen the sta
ton.
