 That's nice of you, and hope you like the little gift. It really isn't a gift, Andrew. It's just a neektie made for you myself. I wish it could have been something nicer-but you'll let the sentiment that goes with 1t count for what 1t lacks in value or beauty, won't you?"

There must be times while a woman is landing man that she is so en- ragged with his obtuseness that she would keenly enjoy humping him on the head with a shovel.
 Andrew got his eyes away from hers long enough to ask:
 Are you going to have Christmas tree?"
 No. We're old-fashioned, you know. We're just going to hang up our stockings in front of the grate, and let Santa come right down the chimney. l love those old customs. don't yous"
 As she spoke of the old customs she once more pushed the spray of mistletoe up into place. This time Andrew saw 1t. and away down deep in his heart he wished he were just good friend of Amabel's.

as a burglar to be oerted of to jail, peered from behind the bookcase and saw Amabel dreamily hanging her stocking. He swiftly came from his hiding place, and silently hurried to her side. Taking the package from his pocket, he whispered;
 "Amabel! I--I forgot to tell you love you, and here's my proposal, and the engagement ring, tool"
 The mere fact that he had appeared thus mysteriously at her side did not appeal to Amabel She did not think of that at ali She said:
 "Oh, Andrew"
 And she then allowed herself to fall into his arms
 That there was much excited con sersation in the hall, that men were running around the house and peering into dark corners in the basement and in the upper rooms was something of which Andrew and Amabel were en- tirely unaware. Mir. and Mrs. Futile came back, after the officers had gone away utterly bewildered Even they had been so excited that the presence of Andrew struck them as nothing un- usual. Amabers shy but delighted an- rouncement of her engagement was re- ceived merrily, however. In fact. father and mother Futile and the young people got so deep in their plans for the future that they almost forgot the incident until suddenly MT. Futile said:
 "I wonder who the dickens that burglar was, anyhow"
 Tn bet it was mel" Andrew stammsred.
 Well must fix that window tomor- row." MT. Futile decided.

q young woman as just such a young man as Andrew would ardently desire to present with his throbbing heart and the contents of the neat package. The latter contained ring, set with a single diamond The throbbing heart contained what Andrew was ready to promise should be lifelong devotion 10 Amabel
 Why go into detail regarding the whole year during which he had laid siege 10 the heart of AmabeI?
 There had been moments this Christmas eve when Andrews fingers nervonsly sought his breast pocket. Amabel knew he was on the verge of proposing Gracious mercy The woman who cannot diagnose a threat ened proposal Is no woman at all. The stammering speech. the flushed brow, the hesitant remarks, the fixity of stare-all these and many other symptoms are to the average woman what temperature and respiration are to the specialist in levers.
 For some unexplained reason women like to postpone q proposal. They prolong the agony. They enjoy the signs, the aWkwardness, the anxiety. of the swain. They revel in his ab- ject willingness to sacrifice himself, if need be, to gain their promise.
 It may be that instinct teaches them this Is the only moment when the man will be slave.
 At last, however, it became time for Andrew to say goodnight. It was Christmas eve, and he knew Amabei's family would have some little prepara- tions to make for the festivities of the morrow. He did not think for ment Of the tremendous fact that when young woman allows a young man to spend Christmas eve with her she Is writing Yes" in large letters on the wall No man can realize any thing at such times.
 Andrew said he must be going, after Amabel had began to wonder If he was going to talk about the weather and the latest book all evening
 Must you go. really?' she asked. brightly. Wait just moment. have something for you"
 She went into another room, then came back with small package. which she handed to him.

 Then in the vicinity of Katalla, only few miles back from the coast are oa wells capable of furnishing thousands of barrels of high grade oil daily. more than enough, like the coal deposits, to supply the territory of Alaska.
 The best of coal, the best mineral oil, right al the back door. and what do We find? 10000 barrels of crude oil of an inferior quality, thousands of tons of coal of a poorer grade shipped into the country and dumped upon the land 50 as to almost smother the superior ma terial.
 The shipping in Of poorer material to use in place of the superior goods at hand appears to be the custom here in Alaska, and only in this country.
