 He was twenty-eight and Maisie twenty-five, and they had been en. gagged four years. They ought to have been married long before, but Frank was what his folks called a ne'er-do- we'll" He had never placed his foot upon the first rung of the ladder of success. He had been clerk in half a dozen offices, but he wholly lacked the clements that make for financial affluence.
 Had he been a poet he might have made his way. for poetry is said to be a fairly lucrative calling. But he was not even that-he was com poser by choice. He knew that the present generation would never un. derstand his work; he wanted nothing but to have a quiet home of his own where he could farm and write his melodies undisturbed And Maisie had that passionate longing for country life that city-bred people feel. She was stenographer. and between them they made exactly twenty dol lars a week Frank would have mar ried her on that, but Maisie had enough worldly wisdom to refuse.

But I shall always be true to you" she added, and cried piteously They were like two children and neither had the re- motest hope of ever achieving what they had set their hearts upon.

ISSUES Def TO

If Frank Farmer is looking for
a good bout, Kid Gilman is per-
fectly willing to take him on, as
he has intimated before. At the
Eagles smoker he announced
this when introduced to the fana
in attendance.
AS Gilman is said to have a
good record, it might be well to
get the two big fellows together
in the ring. 1t is up to Farmer,
ii he wants to maze a reputation,
to meet some men who can fight,
and not look for any Hoft pick
ings.

him under his wing for the time.

cure a match with Farmer, the
