PEssIMlsM OVERCOME.

II would seem, judging from the
comment one hears on the stock mar
ket. that spectators have become i'm
bued with the idea that We are facing a
protracted period OF stagnationnoton only
in the speculation but also in general
business. IL must be confessed that
conditions are unusual and possess
many elements OF uncertainty but, that
the speculative community is overdo-
ing things, in its efforts TO be posi-
mistic seems evident The fear of tar
in agitation is one of the reasons given
for believing that the country is on
the eve of bad times. The fact seems
TO be that we, in the East, are al
ready experiencing bad times and per
haps IL will be found that we have dis
counted and even overdiscounted the
elements i'm the situation
II certainly seems So In regard 10 the
tariff and there are many who believe
that the attempt To create a tariff
scare will react on Republican leaders
OF the Lodge stamp.

of a small local house was announc-

The political situation consists
largely of the effort being made TO stop

and harmful but, by this time, the
managers of the larger corporations
must realize that they must adjust

which case l should be the more sue
cessful. Would you advise me to
marry or wait and see how it all
turns Out?"
1t differed very little from scores
Of propositions she had decided al
most off hand, and yet the letter fas-
cinated Agnes, for she had felt the
same dread herself that Ned Oar
lingtOn might not gain the success
that he deserved and that she might
outdistance him in the race for
fame. She had felt that she could
not bear ito see Ned struggling
along while she forged ahead, and
she had told him SO when she had
joined the staff of the Daily Solar.
There had been talk then of great
things that were to be done for her,
and Ned had bluntly demanded that
she choose between a career and him
self.
She had chosen the career to re-
greet it ever after, for he had flung
himself out of her presence and she
had not seen him since. She had
heard that he had gone west, but
they never had had friends in com
mon and none of her acquaintance
could tell her anything Of his where
abouts.
She pondered over the letter until
the striking Of the clock warned her
that she must get to work, SO laying
the letter aside, she reluctantly
raised the cover Of her desk and
slipped sheet of paper into the ma
chine. Rapidly she answered the
more promising Of the other letters,
then she stopped and again took up
the case that was so like her own.
She was still looking at it when one
of the copy boys stopped at her desk.
