AS evening approached they listened
to every step upon the stair. and when
at last the visitor arrived. he found
little lady wrapped In a pretty shawl.
and with a dainty lace cap pinned up
on her slightly gray hair awaiting him.
AS their eyes met. their Amusement
was mutual.
1T isn't--it can't be Joe Millaker.
can TT" she began.
"Sure, and know you all right.
though we haven't met since we went
to school together. You're Mary Col
Inns. or used to be. and you Sat In
front of me at the old public school
In Brooklyn. Don't you remember"
Indeed / do. / have an old copy
book in which you made me a proposal
OF marriage" She laughed delighted
ly.
II guess that's about the way things
were with US, Mary. And I've waited
all these years for you'll never mar
ried. But It's queer l never learned
you'd married Prof. Blumenthal, and
in his orchestra FIVE years"
"But of course he wouldn't be likely
to speak Of his family" she said.
mo. suppose not. Well. Mary, I
told your boy might have some good
news for him when came. The mem
bers of the old orchestra are to meet
next Saturday evening in the old hall
to reorganize. Do you think your son
is able to lead them?"
"Able, my Sammy, why he wouldn't
be the son of his father II he were not
a born musician"
Let him come then, and bring his
fathers baton-I mean the one we
gave him."
Get It. Sammy" said his mother.
perhaps Mr.. Millaker would like to
see 1t again"
Very proudly the boy opened the
box, displaying the handsome baton,
simply saying: Father was very fond
of It,"
AS the visitors eyes fell upon the
baton he said:
"Yes, it's the same. How well l re-
member 1t, and how pleased the pro-
lessor was when we presented 1t. And
to think of our allowing ourselves to
lose track of his wife and son! Well,
you needn't worry any longer, Mary,
the old orchestra1l look out for you
now--till you make up your mind to
let. me have the job alone"
Though he gave her a meaning look
he took his departure in the midst Of
her embarrassed laugh.
"Oh, mother" exclaimed Sammy, in
stantly the door was closed, II under
stand now. That's the Joe that wrote
his name in all your school books"
The little lady, looking 10 years
younger. blushed as prettily as a girl
over her first love affair.
"Yes," she admitted dreamily, "the
very same"
"And to think of his making me an
orchestra leader. Do you think can
do 1t, mother?"
"Of course you can. Are you not
the son of Carl Blumenthal?"

THE GENTLE SHEEP 40 A RAPID
FIRE MoNEYMAkER.

An enormous number of sheep are
coming into the Union Stock Yards.
Chicago, which are being sent there
by Western grazers on account OF
the scarcity OF feed In that section
of the country. and which must DO
sold at buyers prices.
The states Of Michigan, Ohio. In
diana and Illinois. are well provided
with good feed and an opportunity OF
this kind. II offered by one of the
great dry goods houses or department
stores of Chicago. would deplete three
quarters of the homes of that city OF
its womenkind inside of half an hour
after the notice appeared. All they
would want would be time enough to
throw few clothes over them: some
wouldn't even stop to put rats" In
their hair, thousands would forget
the powder" none would stop to
"paint," but every fathers daugh-
ter of them would make "B" line
to bubbles pants. and extract there
from without leave, license or con-
sent. all that therein was to be found
in the shape of cash. and then tum-
BILE over each other to be first on the
spot
Lots of these women would buy
much more than they required. and
would quietly hold over their pur
chases until the close of the sale. and
then let loose their surplus stock up
on their less wide awake friends. and
reap thereby harvest of "sheckels"
which we may take for granted would
be at once returned to the trouser
pockets of their husbands while those
gentlemen still slept. That Is the
woman of 1t.
Let us take lesson from her
thrifty and honest example. Extract.
ing from the pockets of slumbering
spouse. under such circumstances is
not robbery, It Is only borrowing, and
more than that. 1t is borrowing on
account of that most beautiful Of all
female characteristics - thoughtful
considerat ion-She did not wish to
disturb the peaceful rest Of her softly
sleeping consort.
Sheep feeding at this particular
time, and after the season of West
ern drought just experienced, will be
most profitable to those who are for
tunate enough to have the feed, and
such as have. can In the course OF
sixty days turn over their money In
such satisfactory way as will add
very largely to their bank accounts.
There il nothing In sight at the
present moment, that offers better
and safer investment than the pur
chase of these sheep. In numbers that
each buyer can accommodate. and
nothing that offers 80 speedy and sc
certain return.

KNOW LITTLE ABOUT GUNS
Magazine Reader crlticlzes NovelIsts
for Their Ignorance Of the
Subject.

"Of all the fool people that are let
loose In felton," exclaimed the gun
crank as he disgustedly threw across
the room the magazine he had been
reading, "the alleged gunfighter is the
worst! Why don't the authors who
want to put shooting into q novel at
least go to gun store and see what a
revolver or a rifle looks like before
they try to write about It!
Magazine editors who go in for
that sort of fiction ought to have a
gun editor who would know the differ
ence between derringer and scatter
gun, and who would at least be aware
OF the fact that 1t isn't the trigger that
clicks when you cock a shooting iron
of any sort-although ignorant novel
lists have been producing thrills and
shivers in equally ignorant readers
with that click of the trigger so long
that the mistake has become classic
Nov, here's an author" and the
gun crank picked up the magazine he
had just thrown down and found the
sentence which had set him off.
| Here's an author who makes one Of
his characters, represented as crack
a-jack with gun of any sort, 'twirl
the cylinders Of his revolver with the
practiced thumb as he gets ready to
shoot! How many cylinders does
that author think a revolver has, any
way. and what does he think the cylin-
der is for, and what does he sup
pose would happen to man who stop
ped to play with his gun in that way
when somebody else had the drop on
him?
"And the other day I read about an.
other fighting man in novel who,
his creator alleged, had carefully fled
away the trigger spring of his rifle
And I've been trying ever since to fig-
ure out what the author supposed
himself to mean and what he imag-
ined he was going to make his hero
accomplish by such an asinine pro-
ceeding as that.
But It's no use trying to find sense
in such stun. There isn't one novel
writer in a thousand, anyway, who
would know the difference between q
six-shooter and skyscraper!"
