him from the photograph Helen had
kept. Silently they followed him to
the house where the girl lived.
The story that he unfolded was
strange one, but bore the mark of
truth. lie had quarreled with his
wife, II years before. She had left
him, and he had never associated her
with the wreck. There was no rea-
son why he should have done so. He
had tried to trace her and the child
for years, but had only received a
clue from summer visitor to the
island, who had seen the photograph
the year before, and heard the roman
tic story. He wanted Helen to be
his daughter in his old age.
He frowned angrily when he learned

said Jim Holloran to his son. You
know very well that the girls waif
and stray. If you marry her you'll
come to regret it,
She's as good as anyone else
around here" answered Holloran in
dignantly.
His fathers opinion was, in Sc
verer form, than the fisherfolks on
Clark island. Seventeen years before
a ship had gone to pieces on the rocks
In the bay. When the lifeboat men
clambered aboard they found a dying
woman clutching a puny infant to her
breast The child was girl; brought
ashore, it grew into a comedy young
woman The kindly fisherfolks who
reared her christened her Helen Clark.
That was as far as their magma
ton could run. Helen and Tom, the
son of her foster parents neighbor,
had always been sweethearts. The
young fisherman and the girl were en-
gagged to be married soon
The idea was. not that the girl was
unworthy of Tom, but that some day
size would be claimed
In those days the attention of the
nation had been absorbed by the
Spanish war. The wreck had re-
ceived but passing notice. There had

Los Business system.

Old settlers will tell you that the
Indians broke the first ground for
wheat growing purposes in the spring
of 1881. The Indians got their first
ideas of settling on land and estab-
fishing permanent homes from asso-
citation with the cowboys. Members
of the tribe, including Pocatello Tom,
China Eye and Big Tipped Pete, broke
some ground and seeded a few acres
of wheat.
When the wheat was harvested and
"threshed" in primitive Indian fash
ion, the growers began to market the
grain. The native wheat king would
deliver wheat to American Falls, or
elsewhere in the vicinity, for so cents
a bushel If the customer went after
the grain the price was one dollar a
bushel. When questioned as to the
meaning of their singular business
methods the Indians would invariably
reply: "You come to my wickiup, you
heap want UNI Me come to your
wickiup. maybe so you don't want 'um
at all,"-Farming Business.

US. You can marry that young scoun-
drel, or you can remain at home, in
stead Of bringing your fathers gray
hairs in sorrow to his grave
Amy began to weep. She left the
room and thought her problem out.
And 1t seemed to her that her first
duty was to her father. Roger and
she were both young; she was an only
child, and her father loved her in his
way. He had had hard life until
late years. There had always been
unfulfiIled hopes which had tormented
him He had lived a narrow, straight
cut life He had made bitter sacrifices
to duty. In the end Amy wrote to
Roger, telling him that their engage
ment must be postponed until she was
able to bring her father to reason and
discover where the trouble lay.
But she pinned all that summer, and
once or twice, meeting Roger in the
street. she was hardly able to resist
his entreaties that she consent to an
elopement. Her father, too, was grow
ing stranger than ever.
At last Roger called at the house
again. He went straight into Mr.. Ban
nister's study Il am going to marry
your daughter, whether you like 1t OF
no." he said IF you have anything
against me, let's have it out now.
To his establishment. he fancied that
he saw look of approval in the old
mans eyes. But 1t passed instantly
| and old Bannister raved and stormed
at him. In the end he found himself
outside, with nothing accomplished
and deeper enmity between himself
| and his future father-in-law.
The next day despairing little let
| ter came from Amy.
Roger, help me-" 1t began Il an

me my dinner. Father has gone out o
his mind. He induced me to enter th'
attic this morning, and then he turned
the key on me- He has had bolts pu

The interview was naturally an en-
barrassing one, but Roger Lewis had
never had a moments doubt of the
result. He was a young lawyer. with
q good practice; his antecedents were
irreproachable. And old Andrew Ban
mister was a gentleman.
Roger was therefore hardly able to
believe his ears when old Andrew curt
ly refused his permission for the en-
gagement.
I've seen this coming for a long
time, sir" he Numbered. And
knew from the beginning that you had
wormed your way into my house in or

But, Mr.. Bannister," protested Rog-

love with"
Bah! Don't talk of love to mel"
interpolated the old gentleman bitter
ly. You shall never marry my iaugh-
ter, or / cast her adrift. Leave my
door, and never darken it again."
Certainly old Bannister had always
been little queer, but Roger could
imagine no reason for this brutal self
ishness. Amy listened to his account
of the interview in amazement. She
went direct to her father.
What have you been saying to
Roger" she asked.
