 ''You must pardon me for asking these questions went on MT Snood in a kinder tone. Its good plan to be careful, you know. After all, it is to your own interest as well as ours, isn't it?'
 Quite so," assented Matt, hoping that MT. Snood would soon come to the point
 s.I'n tell you what I'll do,'' said the latter, hesitating and examining the ring again with evident admiration. Mind, Pm not saying you mightn't get better offer elsewhere, but this is the best Snood &, Hargreaves can do for you We'll advance you S4, 1000 on it at per cent interest, and we'll engage to buy it outright, now or later. for $5,5OO.'
 This was so much more than Matt had ever dreamed of that he could only gasp. Fifty-five hundred dollars! He had thought vaguely of a couple of thousand, trembling at his own pre- sumption Fffty-five hundred dollars! Why, that was a fortune-not that he wished to sell the ring except in the last extremity, nor, as he bewilderingly considered the proposal, did he care to take so large an advance as $4,O00. The interest charges would soon grow beyond his powers to meet them, and the ring would be irretrievably lost Explaining his perpIexities to MT.

within the Law, Bayard Vei1ler's s melodrama of modern conditions in New York life which will be seen at the Park theatre three days commence ing Monday, Dec. 9th treats interest ing1y of the minimum wage in that it tells the story of a shopgir1 who is ur1- justly accused of theft and sent to states prison for three years. In the first act, she has a terrific scene with her employer, the owner of depart ment store, Known as the t'Empori- um," in which she tells him in plain language of the temptations which he places in the paths of his girl ern- ployes through starvation wages and the consequent privations they are forced to undergo. The rest of the play is devoted to the absorbing story of Mary Turner's revenge.

In the near future Senator Clarke of Arkansas will introduce bill foI the expiration of the terms of post masters of the first, second and third class upon some particular day oi the year. July may be fixed. The bill may include District Attorneys Collectors and Marshals.
 The suggestion does not meet with favor from some Democrats, on the ground that it looks like a scheme to grab the patronage prematurely. The plan seems to have originated with Mir. Clarke. It has not been laid be- fore any committee or presented to a caucus of Democratic Senators.
 In formulating his suggestion, MT. Clarke, it is said, did not have Tn mind the incoming administration of President Wilson, but believed it ad' yisable that some specific time be as' signed for the termination of official positions. It is improbable that such a measure could be passed at this session and it's fate at the extraordi- nary session is problematical.
