proud of it. THAT fossy blonde on
the outside was Beauty Phillips, the

Fine for Beauty Phillips." said the
Manicure Girl, and then she was an
grily silent for few minutes Look
here, Mr.. James E. Carroll" she sud-
denly demanded; when did you write
last to the girl in Prosperity"
"By George. II intended to write
her last night" he stammered. "I-
1 haven't been answering her letters
as promptly as 1 ought, and that's a
fact
When = did - you = write - to
-her?" she insisted.
well, it's been-why, confound it,
it's over three weeks" he finally con-
fessed.
"And then I'll bet it was on one
page, she snapped back at him.
You told her you were too busy to
write, only just those few lines, but
would write more tomorrow"
That time she made him blush.
Now" she sternly went on, you
go right out of here and write to that
girl; and keep it up, or don't ever
come back
Gross my heart, hope to die if I
don't" he promised.
The next time he came in he was
leading particularly ugly bulldog.

as he tied the end of the chain to his
chair.

making. Why, say, do you known
I'm ahead over five hundred dollars

The Manicure Girl pushed back his
hand, and hastily reached down his
hat from the hook overhead.
Rum" she exclaimed. Get away
quick before they find out you've got
1t, or they'll take it away if they have
to strangle you"
He merely grinned.
"Oh, l don't know" he said con-
fdently. I've noticed that the
people who do gouge it's money out
of New York, and keep it, come from
places like Prosperity, Indiana.
There's a lot more where this five

Maybe So" he admitted, "but let
me tell you, little lady, I'll be hav-
ing the time of my life until they
reach me, and if they clean me I've
made my three hundred stretch a
long, long way"
He held his head high and his big
shoulders square as he walked out,
and Billy snorted; but he got no satis-
faction out of the Manicure Girl.

The boss barber was not, however.

mortgage on the premises, but that
hate to see you taking all that spite
out on the poor Dagoes. Considering
the couple of hundred dollars my pet
Hick has left, he's not likely to be in
any more"
She was mistaken. In a week he
was in again, more aggressive even
than he had been the first time. Some
way there was change in him. The
noisy tie was gone, he had new
hat, and he carried himself shade
"scrappy," as she expressed it.
"Hello!" she hailed him. 81

Prosperity"
Not yet" he said. IT don't think
I'm going back except when l go
after the girl"
"No?" she asked. What's hold
ing your"
Money" he replied gleefully, and
displayed huge roll Of bills
who died in your family?" she
asked.
1T isn't that" he laughed "but
New York has too much loose coin
for q man to leave. I've found out
how to take its wealth away from it."
Good" she exclaimed Little old
New York needs a trimming. Go
after it and get it good. But how
are you doing it? I'm greedy to
know"
"Oh, just speculating a little in
stock and grains," he replied.
Reuben, Reuben!" she gasped.
You'll be the death of me yet"
You're mistaken in the name" he
retorted. "It's Hiram H. Hanks of
Hawkinsville, or possibly Josh Dill
Of Picklesburg."
She surveyed him with some dis
favor.
"My, but I bet they miss you in
Prosperity. What merry wag you
must be when you're going good"
Regular clown" he grinned.
Gust for that I'll make you listen to
my real name"
From his pocket he drew a stamped
and addressed letter and pointed to
the James E. Carroll" written in the
corner under the Belveigh card.
Sand here's the girl" he said,
pointing to the address with a
strange combination Of diffidence
and assertiveness. elizabeth Ruth

"Hick, isn't he, Billy? Yap, I guess!
Also a pin-head and a few other
things; but just the same, he came
here to spend three hundred dollars,
and he's been here over a week. and
he's got about six hundred of it left.
l call that real Marathon blood my
self. If you'd go out and turn few
tricks like that you could come down
to your daily toll in a buzz-wagon."
He'll be down on the Bowery pan
handling before he gets through"
growled Billy.
1t did not seem to happen right at
once, however. Every time James e.
Carroll came in he looked more pros
porous, and he told the Manicure Girl
each time of how much money he
was making as grain and stock
operator Every time it was more
and more. He didn't exactly boast
about it; he was only gleeful in a
large, childish way, and it is doubt
ful If he gloated to any one else as
he did to Miss Williams. He had
constituted her his confidante from
the beginning, and seemed to feel it
a solemn duty, as we'll as a Joy, to
come in and let her know his prog
ress. 1t was strange, too, to see his
transition from country boy to an
all-rouhder. His clothing now was
up to the minute, his talk up to the
second, and everything about him
was right on the dot: but in place
OF the rugged pink and brown of his
cheeks he now had a massaged com
plexion, and there were pouches under
his eyes.
The Manicure Girl came in one day
laughing and still half vexed.

It's Plunger Jimmy Carroll Frank

Gee!' I said. Has he got so far

Sure, said Frank. He's the hot

and in his abstraction he had thrust it into his pocket and forgotten all about it.
 One of Ford's peculiarities-peculia #in an inventor and an innovator--is his cons ervatfveness where his car is concerned. Time and again his. sales men and engineers have come to him with suggestions that he modify or adorn certain parts of the Ford na-s chimes and each time Ford has is-s tened patiently to all they had to say. But his answer is always the same:
 ''It runs, doesn't it, Sam?'
 ''Yes,, MT. Ford.''
 Well, Sam, that's about as much as we ought to expect from it, isn't it :? Whats the use of changing?''
 But Ford doesn't go on the theory that he has nothing more to learn i about autonlo piles. He has com to New York to watch the show at the Grand Central Palace and note the innovations, especially in the cheaper Tears. He keeps track of every de velopnnent in the business. Yester-
 day he went out to Orange to talk to Thomas A. Edison about the fn- ture of the electric automobile. In cidenta1ly, Ford thinks thats Edison is the greatest inventor in the world, but he ranks him only second among his favorites. The man Ford thinks most of. is John eBurroughsss the naturalis< { WnOIn FOrQ considers to- De Ln6 peer i, of Edison in his own domain

The engine stayed where 1t was for ten days until the eggs were matched. An Eother time Ford had $4,000 worth of English wild birds sent to him from

CARL PAGE co.

One of the most interesting exhibits at the annual Bridgeport Automobile show is that of the Carl Page Co. who show Chalmers cars. Two models are now being displayed. The cars shown are the latest products of the Chal- mers concern and are considered the lsat word in pleasure automobile building. But while the cars com- bine all the beauty of design called for in pleasure cars, they are strong and serviceable. ana as useful alike for business or for any other purpose which automobiles have lately been finding to be indispensable.
 The cars shown are five and seven passenger automobiles on Model 24 chassises. The cars have full string line bodies, moulded oval lenders with clear running boards. One of the dis tinct features of the cars is the Chal- mefs-1ntz silent starters. The cars have electric side lamps and the head lights are fitted with double bulbs. With these lights the Chalmers mo- torist when passing another auton1o- bile on the road simply switches off light in the smaller bulbs placed above. Thus he is able to pass an- other car going in the same direction with his headlights lit but dinamed, and without throwing a blinding searchlight into the eyes of the driver of the other car.
 The five passenger car sells for s2, 175. The seven passenger car for $2, PTS. R. w. Barnes, wno is in charge of the exhibit at the show, is much disappointed because he has been un- able to get a Chalmers Model 26 to ex- hibit. The order for this model has been so large that tne supply manu- factured has been completely exhaust ed and the company is far behind on its orders. The only Model 26 was at I the New York show and has been taken to Philadelphia for exhibitio this week.
