power, is inexpressibly sweet. The
assurance that he held his unsuspect-

half dozen words, was to him meat

In less than a week he received a
note from Stennis definitely engaging
him, and requesting that he begin his
new duties forthwith. So Roger Hews
took up his residence at "The Albany"
and speedily became adept in his
work, as well as possessed Of most of
his employers little secrets.
The winter came and went without
bringing much change in the outward
relations of the chief personages of

was made sick at the thought of the
enormous sums that were being Law

letter from a young woman wbJ is
tired of working in a downtown office

any good man who will give her a
home, was received by an afternoon
paper:
do you know Of any society or
club that would like to make some
money by rafting off a young woman
to some man that would marry her
and give her home-a young woman
that is tired to death of working
downtown in an office, and has no
home but a boarding house? l am
a practical young woman, not bad
looking, fairly well educated, and
would make some man a good wife
If he would only give me a home. l

widower-in fact, would rather prefer
a widower with one child. This isn't
a joke. I am in earnest and would
marry any respectable and genteel
man who would give me a home, and
I have read of such things being done
by some kinds of societies or clubs,
