Nancy redeemed under their curious
eyes and one hand went up to her
hair in the old nervous manner.
Nancy Owen!" her sisters shrieked
in chorus. Where did you get that
ring?"
With guilty look at her father
Nancy hid he'd hand with it beautiful
cluster of sapphires and diamonds.
That's part of Nancy's vacation"
remarked Mr.. Owen, with twinkle
in his eye.
They stared, round-eyed. At last
Olive spoke whimsically. eff that is
part of the vacation-pray tell us
about the remainder, dad"
ooh, the remainder is merely Mans
engagement to Paul Ballinger-and
they are to be married in October and
go abroad for a year"
Paul Ballinger," groaned Beatrice;
then she arose and ran around the
table to Nancy's side. "You are
the most unselfish girl in the world,
Nancy-and deserve to be- perfectly
happy"
When she had been kissed and con-
graduated and the girls had admired
the lovely ring, Nancy smiled over
their heads at her father "Who will
keep house for dad next SUMMER"
she asked demurely.
"I!'' the three cried in chorus, and
as they fell into merry dispute over
the coveted position, Nancy stole
away to the parlor, where she knew
that perfect happiness awaited her.

A Olstlngulshed Celestial.

Wednesday morning there was at Nogales, en route to San Fran cisco from the City of Mexico, a distinguished subject of the Chinese Emperor, Eng Hok Fong by name, who is the owner of the Eng Hok Fong line of steamships, plying be- tween Hong Kong and Mazatlan. The richness of his apparel, which was the costume of his native land, and the air of distinction he bore betokened parsonage rather than an individual, and he was the re- cipient of marked attention at the hands of immigration, customs and railway officials. Speaking Eng fish very huently and correctly he met every one with geniality and affability and created a decidedly pleasing impression in the minds of all with whom he came in con. tact. Travelling with the distin- guished tourist was Mir. Lyman 1 Mowry of San Francisco, general agent for the steamship line owned by the magnate mentioned, who informed THE OASIS that Sylvester Mowry, original owner of the far famed Mowry mine, in the Pata- gonia mountains, was his own cousin.
