GIRL HE MET: STILL LIKES
Dear Miss Libbey:-

Dear MISS LID bey:--
 I, constant reader. come for ad- vice. I am IS years of age. Two years ago met young lady that took much interest in me at first sight. I did not like her for that reason, but as soon as we parted found out that I could love her. Until today I have found no one that loved dearer than that girl I have not seen her forf about seven months, but when seen last she alays. noticed me first, makes no differ ence whom she is with. DO youI think that that is true lover She is about two months older than I. Her parents, at least her mother, are very fond of me. Her brother thinks that there is no one better than me My people have not got very much. so that can not be the reason. Her. people have got something. Do you think this is true love. or naturally that I did not know my own mind two years ago?
 J. Me.
 I know of no reason as to why she should not like you. On your part there is true love. You show clearly you know your own mind, and that you still love the girl, The future will de- termine.

trumpet"
You are too diffident, my dear
John" said the old lady. LET us put
our heads together and see whether
we can't show up your good qualities.
If we can't, nobody can"
A little praise from Mrs. Barton, a
little tender love from Cynthia, a lit
tie eagerness on Johns part, and a
touch of bitterness at the memory of
Hart, and the following letter was
produced:
In answer to your advertisement,
beg to say that think l am just the
man for the position. am twenty
five years of age and wish to make a
change. / am at present employed
in a wholesale stationery house and
have a complete knowledge of the
business. 1 am planning to leave be-
cause 1 am worth at least SIPS a
month and am getting less. wish
to enter the service of an enterpris-
ing firm that knows a good man
when it has him, and if you will &C
cord me an interview l believe we can
come to terms"
The last sentence, to which John
demurred, was the product of Mrs.
Barton's brain.
1t seemed to the women just the
sort of letter calculated to appeal psy-
chologically to Quincy. They said
so and John was forced to agree
He watched Hart narrowly the next
morning. Somehow he felt as if a
vast load had been lifted off his mind.
He no longer feared Hart, ne no long
er dreaded to go into the little booth
where he had his desk. Threats
would leave John unmoved. He
dreamed away at the morning, in
fancy seeing himself at the altar with
Cynthia, and in his pocket the price
of an extended honeymoon tour
through the south.
At lunch time the office boy told
John that Hart wanted to see him.

der the impression that you were not
altogether satisfied with your posi-
ton here"
mo, sir" said John.
"Eh? What's that?" snapped Hart,
looking at him menacingly. ''You
aren't. Why didn't you tell me?"
81 think am worth more money,
sir" said John, respectfully I'm fact,
II am sure of it."
'Then that is the explanation of
this letter which l received from you
this morning." said Hart, f1inging
Johns missive down on the table.
John felt his blood run cold It
was one thing to leave Hart triumph
antly, to go to Quincy; it was anoth-
er to be kicked out before he had Sc
cured another position.
"Of coure, if you are not satisfied,
Mr.. Darrell" continued Hart, more
blandly, you are at liberty to leave
us. But we are charging the depart
ment, and 1 wanted to get another
man as assistant preparatory to adj
vancing you to a higher position at
$125."
Which was not strictly true. Hart
had advertised for another man, but
he had intended to keep John in the
some position at the same salary, and
all his expressions of discomfort on
previous days had been directed to-
ward frightening John lest he should
make a demand on him. The new
man was to have superseded John.
eff you like to take the position it
is yours Darrell continued Hart.
John looked at him in stupefaction.
1t seemed too good to be true. He
was appreciated, then. His employ
er had recognized his years OF. service.
Hart turned on the reproachful
tap. eff you only had let me know
that you wanted more money, OAR
