"Only a stenographer.
Eunice Graydon recalled the care

in the world. In the first place the
words implied decided compliment
for her appearance must have attract
ed attention in order to create the
discussion In question between two
callers at the Office of Robert Larned
Only a stenographer! but good
one, and under what auspicious en-.
vironmentl AS Eunice recalled the
day two years previous, when a
stranger in the city and well nigh
discouraged she had been accepted as
an employe by Mr.. Larned the tears
of gratitude, JOY and loyalty arose to
her beautiful eyes and she was proud
and content as any queen.
She was woman to attract atten.
tion anywhere. Past early girlhood,
she was still lovely and graceful. Her
kindly eyes, her gentle, womanly dig
nifty, her helpful earnest disposition,
all these had won for her the respect
of her employer and Of every other
person in the office.
The two men callers decided not to
wait to see the proprietor. 1t was
early in the morning. Eunice always
came down early. There was a mis-
sion OF almost reverence involved.
She busted herself always first about
the desk of her employer 1t was
to place his swivel chair conveniently,
to see that not speck Of dust was
apparent on the clear glass base, to
arrange his papers, to ventilate the
room just right.
She did not know if in his grave,
abstracted way Mr. Latned ever no
ticed these little attentions. She
hoped not, but sometimes she won
dered If this interest was at its base
a tribute of warm devotion perhaps
love,
Eunice hummed a sweet home tune
as she moved about her duties. She
was thinking of a near vacation when
she would go home and see her dear
mother How proud she would be to
tell her that she had saved up nearly
five hundred dollarsl And all this
Joy and comfort and independence be-
cause she had been so fortunate as to
secure a pleasant permanent position
with the best of men!
Eunice had her precious savings in
her pocket at that moment. She had
drawn them from the bank the pre-
vious afternoon, intending to ask Mr..
Larned to invest them for her.
"Oh, dear! dear!" she murmured
felicitously, 1T seems as if nobody in
the world could be so glad and hope
full and happy as l." and her eyes
grew liquid as she moved two small
framed pictures on the desk. One as
she well knew was an old photograph
of the dead wife of her employer and
his son, taken many years since. The

Victory at Handp-Moyer

Denver, April 13-That the Western
Federation of Miners refused to recog-
nize defeat in ending the Michigan
copper strike; that they capitulated
not to the mining companies, but to a
near future that promised nothing but
hunger and prtvation; that they ex-
pect to continue their onward march
to the goal Of economic liberty, were
the features of a statement issued to-
day by Charles H. Moyer, president
of the Western Federation of Miners.
The statement was made upon receipt
of official notification from district
officials that the copper mine strikers
voted to call off the strike.
Meyers statement opens with a
brief history Of the struggle which
opened last July after the miners had
exhausted every effort to secure a
conference with the mine managers to
discuss the following questions:
IAN eight hour day, a minimum
wage Of So for underground workers,
that two men be employed on Michi-
gan drills instead OF one and recogni-

Mr.. Justice Holmes has the reputa-
ton Of citing more peculiar cases from
the Old law books than any other
member Of the supreme court. He
dug up an additional one Saturday to
the amusement Of his associates,
when 1t was contended In a libel suit
that the declaration was insufficient
because the offenses were not stated
properly.
'aThat leads me to recall a ease in
the old books, " said the justice, where
an indictment set forth that the &C

down on either shoulder, ana the
court held the Indictment defective

MAKING THE MOST or LIFE
Walter Pater's Somewhat Paganistlc
View Of the Journey Which We
All Must Take.

A counted number Of pulses only is
given to us of variegated dramatic
life. How may we see in them all that
is to be seen in them by the finest
senses? How shall we pass most
swiftly from point to point and be al
ways present at the focus where the
greatest number Of vital forces unite
In their purest energy?
To burn always with this hard,
Rem-like fame, to maintain this &c
stasy. is success in life. While all
melts under our feet. we may well
catch at any exquisite passion, or any
contribution to knowledge, that seems
by a lifted horizon to set the spirit
free for a moment, or any stirring OF
the senses. strange dyes, strange col
ors, curious odors, or work Of the art
lists hands, or the face Of ones friend.
Not to discriminate every instant
some passionate attitude In those
about us, and in the brilliancy Of their
gifts some tragic dividing Of forces
on their ways is, on this short day Of
frost and sun, to sleep before evening.

Recognition of the union, denied by
the mining companies, is waived by

all of thir emands have been com

These demands include better working

fervently.
'U-hum-ah!" Eunice turned quickly,

Alan Larned, the son of her employer.
There was q faint smile on his lips.

placed a gentle. tremuIous hand upon
his own.
'Mr. Larned," she said earnestly,
tell me all about your trouble. Let
me try and spare your father, who
loves you so, If possible. Let me help
YOU
The young fellows eyes filed with
tears at this exhibition Of a warm,
sincere sympathy. He blurted out his
wretched story-money lost In gam
bling, threats Of exposure over claims
held by grasping loan shark.
How much is it?" asked Eunice
fearsomely, and her face frightened
as Alan named sum approximately
the amount Of her savings
II am going to help YOU" she said
simply, and. oh, am so glad that
it is in my power to do so. 1t is be-
cause trust you; it Is because
know you viii evade the pitfalls in
the future. VIII you not try to do
so?'
"T could not accept" he began
brokenly.
Il was going to invest some money" !"
interrupted Eunice. Il shall do So
with you. am not afraid that you
will repay me, Take it, dear" and
she proffered her savings unostenta-
tiously. Because nf your father, be-
cause / shall think of you and pray
for you. Oh, do not forfeit the
trust!"
Not word of all this to Mr.. Lar
ned. The trustful father knew not
of the abyss his son had escaped, nor
OF the loving hand that had guided
him to haven of hope and courage.
And this proved true. Naught but
pleasing news came from the boy after
that. And then at the end Of year
Eunice received a remittance cover
ing her generous loan, with interest.
Alan Larned wrote, blessing her He
told her Of a new life, where he had
developed literary ability that was
earning him a liberal income. And at
the end of his grateful letter were
four words: II have told father"
1t was two days after that when
Mr.. Larned called Eunice into his prt
vate office. There was strange ex-
preston on his face, but he said in
his usual tone:
"Dictation. please. Miss Graydcn.
address a letter to your mother"
Eunice started, but wonderingly be-
gan the letter.
Respected madam, pursued Mr
Larned, I write regarding the noblest
woman I know, your daughter. 1t is
to ask your permission to offer her
my hearts best love-"
The pencil fen from Eunice's trem-
bling hands Those hands covered her
face to hide the tell-tale bushes.
"Oh, / cannot write that" she fut-
tered.
"Then you understand" said Mr..
Larned tenderly.
Il have understood for two years,
Mr.. Larned," murmured Eunice.
"And l." said he longingly, "only
for my lonely ways, because you are
SO much younger have hesitated to
ask you to become my wife,"
"You have been so kind to me"
whispered Eunice, you are so far
above me-"
He sealed her lips with kiss and
drew her head to his shoulder, and
Eunice was at rest.
