tude toward the common social and
civic duties and relations, toward labor

''She might think me daring. She
might laugh at me. never have a
chance to be alone with her. No, I'll
write"
Dale Bright placed an effectiOnate
hand on the shoulder OF his friend,
Marvin Hoyt, but smiled quizziCaIlly.
'Hoyt," he said, you're a good
fellow, pure gold all of the time and
all the way through. The matter is
though that you underestimate your
self. Miss Eva Walters is a most
charming young lady, but if she
turns you down it will be because she
isn't worthy of you, for a more de-
serving fellow 1 don't know. Write
if you think best, only get through
with this dilly-dallying, for you're
getting saIlow and peaked worrying
over it."
Hoyt was one of these young men
having so profound a reverence for
wOmanhOOd that he shrank at the
thought of intruding his views upon
the especial one of the seL who had
won his heart. He really believed
that if his suit was denied he would
die forthwith of heartbreak. His
shyness, and, as Bright had said, his
low valuation of his OWE merits, had
kept him in the background with
pretty Eva Walters for over a year.
Now the indecisiOn was becoming
unbearable and he determined to
break the ice in some way.
So Hoyt went to his lonely room
and wrote the letter that was to solve
his fate. He placed it IN an envelope,
sealed it and at dusk started for the
home of his beloved.
Hoyt entered the front yard, but
iC---~.2d. Then he summoned up
his courage and advanced up the
steps and onto the porch. The front
door was open. Looking through the
