An American girl has certainly the

And, to be truthful, Dorothy's par
ents were not altogether insistent
upon the marriage. But it would
mean bankruptcy otherwise, for Cur

once, and she didn't even remember
what he looked like, except that he
was not quite a monster.
"No, he isn't a monster" Dorothy
tearfully admitted. AS a matter of
fact, Harold Curtis had fallen desper-

been enough to set the spoiled girl in

him for love and for nothing else. She

splash and a trickle of moisture into
her shoe caused her to leap up with
a scream.
The tide was tapping against the

She looked out in horror. Dorothy

CHAPTER TX.

Durham slept very little that night.
His soul was lowering between Joy
and anxiety. Almost he was inclined
10 find some way to send her word
about the man he had seen lingering
about the place, and yet perhaps 1t
was foolish. He had doubtless been
to call on the cook, and there might
be no connection whatever between
what Durham had heard and seen and
the lonely girl.
Next day. with careful hands, the
girl made herself neat and trim with d
few materials she had at hand. She
gathered her little hoard of money to
take with her, and cast n look back
ove the cheerless room, with a great
longing to bid it farewell forever, and
so back to the world where she be-
longed; yet she realized that it was a
quiet refuge for her from the world
that she must hereafter face. Then
she closed her door, went down the
stairs and out into the street, like any
other servant on her afternoon out,
walking away to meet whatever crisis
might arise. She had not dared to
speculate much about the subject OF
the coming interview. 1t was likely
he wanted to inquire about her COM
fort and perhaps offer material aid
She would not accept 1t, of course, but
It would be a comfort to know that
some one eared. She longed mex
pressibly for this interview. just be-
cause he had been kind. and because
he belonged to that world from which
she had come. He would keep her
secret. He had true eyes. She did
not notice soft, padded feet that came
webbing down the street after her,
and she only drew a little further out
toward the curbing when a blear-eyed,
red face peered into hers as she stood
waiting for the car She did not no
tice the shabby man who boarded the
car after she was seated.
Tryon Durham stood in the great
stone doorway. watching keenly the
passing throng. He saw the girl at
once as she got cut Of the car. but he
he did not notice the man in the bag

Telephone Patience.

In order to impress the need foi
courtesy and consideration in usins
the telephone even under provoking
circumstances one Cairo business
house has a card over its telephones
which reads as follows: "The man
ner in which a person uses a teie
phone indicates his character TO
great extent, and makes either
good or a bad impression. And this
impression is reflected directly upon
the establishment from which such
message comes"
1t is very annoying to be told thai
the line is busy when one Is
impatient for communication and
equally so 10 be subjected to any de-
lay in getting a response from cen
trail" but the fault is not with the
operator at the exchange in one case
and may not be In the other. for rea-
son not difficult to understand.
Sometimes the wires are working
badly and sometimes the phone Is
out Of order, requiring the attention
of an expert, for in this world every
thing gets out of order sometimes,
even in the best regulated families
or institutions and In such cases
mending is not done by fretting and
tuning or being ugly. Sometimes a
more or less irascibls user Of the
telephone becomes discourteous, as
he probably would not If face to
face with the operator or communi-
cant, as the result Of a nasty temper
and OF inconsiderateness. In this
connection it, is related that not
long ago a business firm in one oil
the eastern cities lost an order worth
$4,000 a year-and this largely
because an employe of the house
failed to display such courtesy over
the telephone as he assuredly would
have been expected to display had
the person at the other end of the
wire called at tn office himself. Th4
enplcye was impatient. impuden'
and careless. The result was that
the house received a curt note the
following day explaining the reasons
for severing business relations,
Il Is much better, of course, to b.
polite and courteous and %consideratf
in all u dealings. and it is an in
dication Of shallow character ant
ill breeding when one is delinquent
in the matter of good manners. II
Is a recognized fact in both bushes:
and social life that courtesy is one
OF the most valuable assets and II
is enjoined upon employees by nearly
all commercial establishments and
public service corporations of what.
ever character. 1t is just as easy
to be polite and courteous when one
has cultivated the habit as 1t is tc
be boorish and disagreeable and

gy coat, who numbered after her and
watched with wondering scrutiny as
Durham came forward, lifted his hat,
and took her hand respectfully. Here
was an element he did not understand.
He stood staring, puzzled, as they dis.
appeared into the great building; then
be planted himself in a ~convenien!
place to watch until his charge should
come out again. This wal perhaps a
gentleman who had come to engage
her to work for him. She might be
thinking of changing her place. He
must be on the alert.
Durham placed two chairs in the
far orner Of the inner parlor, where
they were practically alone, save for
an occasional passer through the
hall. He put the girl into the most
comfortable one, and then went to
draw down the shade, to shut a sharp
ray OF afternoon sunlight from her
eyes. She sat there and looked down
upon her shabby shoes, her cheap
gloves, her coarse garments, and hon.
ore1 him for the honor he was giving
her in this attire. She had learned by
sharp experience that such respect to
one in her station was not common.
As he came back, he stood a moment
looking down upon her. She saw his
eye rest with recognition upon the
hat she wore, and her pale cheeks
turned pink.

Of my keeping this" she said shyly.

seemed really necessary at the time,

| comfort to me If | had known where
1t was. | had not even missed it, be-
! cause at this time of year | have very
little use for it. 1t is my travelling

He looked at her again as though
the sight Of her was good to him, and
his gaze made her quite forget the
words she had planned to say.
Il am SO glad l have found you"
he went on. You have not been out
of my thoughts since I left you that
night on the train. | have blamed my.
self over and over again for having

way to stand by you. / have not had
one easy moment since / saw you

His tone was so intense that she
could not interrupt him; she could
only cit and listen in wonder, halt
f, trembling, TO the low.spoken torrent
Of feeling that he expressed. She tried
to protest, but the look in his face
stopped her. He went on with an

He looked at her, a great light be-
ginning to come into his face; but she
did not understand and turned her
head to hide the tears.
Then | am going to tell you some
thing" he said. his tone growing lower,
yet clear enough for her to hear every
word distinctly.
A tall. oldish girl with a discon-
tented upper lip stalked through the
hall, glanced in at the door, and sniff
ed significantly, but they did not see
her. A short, baggy-coated man out

building and passed the very window
Of that room, but the shade opposite
them was down, and they did not
