HIS Hateful LETTER

Little Miss Smith had got that, but

Smith. with uplifted pencil, watched
him. He had fallen into a daydream,
and the essence of it was that he
wished he had the strong, clever,
capable Miss Burton to advise him in
the depressed condition of the wool
importing business.
The new tariff was playing havoc
with his affairs, and two of his old
trusted employees had recently left him
to establish an opposition business.
Miss Burton had been with him for
seven years, working her way up from
stenographer to foreign buyer. He
leaned a good deal on Miss Burton. If
he were not twenty years her senior

Mr.. Rogers was little startled. More

nothing had occurred.

ashamed of showing to his friends. Do
the best you can for me. That's all"
The last words were addressed to
Miss Smith exclusively, but she con.
scientiously embodied them in the
body of the Setter. which unfortunately
escaped subsequent perusal. because
there was pile of correspondence
that day and Mr.. Rogers picked up
two letters together and only signed
the top one.
The letter duly reached Miss Mary
Burton in London. Miss Burton had
selected particularly fine assortment
of goods that spring, but when she re-
ceived Mr.. Rogers communication she
did not go to Huddersfield. On the
contrary she sat down and stared at
the letter for about five minutes; and
then the strong-minded. capable bust
ness woman burst into tears.
Her employer was evidently going
insane. She had come to regard her
work as something more than employ
ment; she had an interest in the sue
cess of the business second only to her
interest In Mr.. Rogers. 1t was not
like him to write In that way; in fact,
II he we're in his right mind he could
not possibly have done SO.
A hasty survey of the situation, and
she decided to take the next boat back
to America, which she duly did.
Meanwhile little Miss Smith was
demonstrating her incapability at ev-
cry turn. Her spelling might have de-
lighted the heart Of Mr.. Carnegie,
though it went somewhat beyond his
own ideas of reform. but her transcript

Miss Smith cherished the idea that
vowels were an immaterial episode In
a letter So that, when Mr.. Rogers

that 1t would be advisable for her to
