you get at home all day My housework is done in no time and there I am, the day before me and nothing to do but fold my hands. It does seem good to get back among all of you girls again.
 MT. Merrill was go angry when first suggested coming back to work It took me the longest time to talk him over and he has never really given his consent. Of course if he continues to feel so much hurt l shall give up the idea altogether and stay at home
 What she told the head of the firm: 'I would like to come back to work. MT Morrison. Yes. I know it isn't the busy season, but you said at the time of my marriage that if ever wanted to come back you would have a place for me. I am willing to work for less money than I did receive if you will take me on. Thank you so much.
 "Oh. no. I don't regret my marriage. l have little boy, you know. And well. hardly anything in this world

 What she told her mother: Yes. I have gone back to worx Now, mother. you needn't start on John. He doesn't [ want me to go and l don't have to go. Yes, he is able to support me. but if l want more expensive things than he can buy it is only just that l should buy them myself. Now, mother. l won't have you interfering or saying anything to John It is nobOdy's busi- ness but my own"
 What she told his mother: Yes. you heard the truth. I have gone back to work. Perhaps you could get along on Johns salary, but different people have different ways. Perhaps l could make it reach too if l set as skimpy table as some people. Even if John isn't getting as well cooked meals and as clean house as when l was at home all day. it won't kin him.
 Really. I don't exactly understand why he is poor boy Working down

 dreamed of the time when he would be
 referred to as ''One of Our Leading Citl-
 zens and Power in the World of FL

 as & Captain of Industry. The Rewards of Success danced before his eyes and at
 times nearly OverpowereJ him with their
 Fragrant Sweetness. And so he loo dreamed. BUT HE DIDN'T DREAM ALL THE TIME, Instead. he came out of the Clouds daily and got down 10 Earth. He didn't allow his ailnrihg dreams of the Future to make him Tor getful of the Present, Out of every dream he had he tried to draw some Practical Help and Inspiration for Pres- ent Use.
 If he saw himself conducting the Busi- ness on a Different Plan from the one his Bess was using-and Getting By win the Goods by doing so - he straight way went to the Boss and Automatically suggested his idea as possible means of improving the Office System. Some times his Boss took the Hint. More fire quentIy he Turned IL Down and told Chap No ? why he did so But. in either case, the Boss sort of sized up this Chap and decided to Watch Him. Even If some of them were Wild Eyed. he at least had Ideas. the Boss argued
 More than that, he tried to Make Ills Dreams Come Tsue-not in the Future but now, in the Present Of course there wasn't single one of them that be could make come true in Its entirety But he did his Best 10 realize \ portion-eyen small portion-of Every dream he had After a while. in the Aggregate. these faA t. mi n . spectable Dream Fulfilled in themselves
 Both Chaps are still dreaming. Both are Getting Along in their Business. But Chap No 2 Is Beating Chap No. 1 To It. Hands Down.

 Possibly l wouldn't have had to work if had married you instead. but that doesn't imply that I would have had q happier life. Freedom from money cares is not all a man heed give woman in order to satisfy her"
 What she told Johns best friend; Yes. I have had to go to work. As long as my husband is easy enough to let a lot of good for nothing friends borrow money of him and drink and eat at his expense his family must suf- fer for it"
 What she told her son: Just think. Robbie. mother is going to make lots of money and then we'll buy the new

 Be a nice boy. Tomorrow's Friday and the next day is Saturday and mother will be at home all afternoon and then it is Sunday and mother will be at home all day
 What she told John: T was down to see Morrison today. John. and he is going to let me come back to work He doesn't need any one. but he said he would take me on. No. John. I would not have married you if had foreseen this.
 'Oh. yes. I have to do it. I have no clothes. Rob has no clothes. You give me scarcely enough money to set the table. l know you care for us. John.

Expensive Beefsteak.

~ II E highest-Driced beefsteak ever sold was at Circle City. Alaska. during the - first gold rush there several years ago. The first beefsteak that ever reached Circle City sold for $4S per pound. aud the steak contained 10 pounds. When the owner of the precious bit of meat reached the camp the miners turned out in body to see it. It was placed on exhibition, and attracted as much attention as an elephant.
 Everybody wanted a piece of It, and the prices offered were such as would have resulted In a mining camp quarrel if 1t had not been decided to raf1e the steak of for the benedt of Il hospital that q minister was attempting 10 locate in the mining territory. Bids were started at s5 per pound. and they rose oriskly to $35 per pound.
 Finally. in order to avoid complications. 1t was decided to sell the tickets at prices of from 90 cents to S2. 6O for the privilege of dra wing for slice. When S4SO worth of tickets had been sold the drawing started, and to the relief of those in charge of the sale. hardly any trouble re- suited.
