at once"
The cheeks Of the young woman burned.
Often as her mother had limited these
things, she had never come out in the
open before. Elizabeth felt as if she had
been struck with whip. Finally she said:
with enough self-control:
"Surely, mother, you re not ashamed of
the business that fathers brains and
energy built up?"
Mrs. Farnum was or. thin ice. She
"My dear Beth" she said finally, "you
don't understand. While your father was
alive was content If anybody had said
these things then, l should have given
them short shrift indeed. Fortunes have
to be made, and must say your fathers
was made in decent, outright, honorable
way. But now, dear, it has been done.
We have right to retire from trade
decently, and take our places in another
-er-er-you know what / mean, You
owe it to yourself, Elizabeth, to accept
this tremendous offer from the Trust.
Eight hundred and fifty thousand dollars!
Just think of i'll" ~
: "I shall not accept it, mother!" was the
impulsive cry. Father wouldn't have
sold to them, and shall not.
"You owe it to the man you will
marry"
al am not thinking of marriage"
Harvey Bowles-"
as decent fellow | wonder that he
is so clean and generous and kind, mother,
considering that he has never done an

to work and prove himself man instead
of a moth, and then may consider him.
Why, the way l feel now, mother, I'd
rather marry carpenter"
"Beth Farnum!'
"Well there have been some great car
penters. But seriously, mother, I'm not
thinking of marriage: I'm thinking of
work. love it! It's so clean and inter-
esting. Father was happy at his work. l
want to be happy. | want you to be
happy, mother. Can't we both be-each
in our own way?"
The young woman had risen, gone to
her mothers side, and put her arms around
her neck.
The older woman tried to disengage
herself. 1t was manifestly impossible to
be stern and unbending so long as this

clung tightly. Then Mrs. Farnum felt a
drop of water trickle down her own cheek.
She was sure she was not crying; SO it
must be Elizabeth.
4At your age, my dear!' expostulated
the mother.
@It's silly, isn't it?" was the response.
al never used to cry. Somehow the tears
come easily nowadays. l think it must
be because am happier than l ever was
before"
There was only one remark left to Mrs.
Farnum.
"My DEAR" she said "try to be reason
able Think of what you owe to yourself. :"
"I will think of it," promised Elizabeth.
RUT, if Mrs Farnum had allowed her
~ self to be cajoled for the moment, she
had no intention of dropping the matter.
AS the daughter of wealthy man, she
had brought to Nathan Farnum loyalty
and love and culture; and, indeed,
she had been good foil for his unve-
neered matter-of-factness. But, now that
she was alone with her daughter, Julia

of information with the skill of social
diplomat. Ten minutes after Elizabeth
had left. the house, Mrs. Farnum called
up the plant, got Rouss on the telephone,
and asked him to come and see her.
Rouss answered the call with alacrity.
Since Nathan Farnum's DEATH the man
ager had been at the Farnum house only
a few times. The plain truth was that
Mrs. Farnum did not like him.. but of this
Rouss, was happily ignorant. When the
telephone call came, he dropped every
thing. fat, rushed to the dressing-room to
see if he was well ordered, and pounded
UP the road with a fast beating heart.
MRS. FARNUM received him fatter-

She-is not in mood to listen" 4,
@She certainly has a mind of her own,"
said Rouss, rubbing his hands in frank
admiration, even though he was hurt by it.
Mrs. Farnum looked upon the manager
with a frosty eye. -
"a mind of ones own is not invariably
an asset in social intercourse" she replied
tartly.
"No, indeed should say not, added
Rouss hastily.
II am going to speak very abruptly and
very clearly, Mr.. Rouss. | suppose you
have heard that the Universal Paper Com
pany has made large offer to Miss
Farnum for her business? Well, then, l
may tell you that | have strongly urged
her to accept. 1t is for her interest to
do So | aoish her to. There are many
reasons. Miss Farnum clings to her no.
ton that her father would not wish her
to do it. 1t is true, my late husband
refused several offers for his business. But
the situation is entirely different now.
Mr.. Rouss, | do not believe that this is
Elizabeth's real reason-or, at least, that
it is the only reason. Can you think of
any other?"
"There is another reason, Mrs. Far

is proper for me to mention it,

"WeIl," said Rouss, "the plain truth is,

Farnum interests, and you know it, and
Miss Farnum knows it; and it hurts, Mrs.
Farnum, to have an outsider come in"
Mrs. Farnum, not in the least interested
in Rouss's private Affections, gasped:
"What is there, sir, between this man
Hyatt and my daughter?"
"Oh, don't misunderstood me, Mrs.
Farnum," choked out Rouss., al didn't

 Every one wants to make money. and if you will study the present conditions of Paradise valley you will soon see how easy it is to make money. Only q few years ago many ot the skeptics said the Roosevelt dam would never oe built, and advised their friends not to buy land in Salt River valley, and regardless of their pessimism the dam was built and the water came and much of land they could have bought for S25 per acre is now worth from S200 to $500 per acre. The same condition exists to- day in Paradise valley. The source for water is equally good as was the source for the Salt River valley. The surveys are complete and propo- sition before the government by re- quest of the Secretary of Interior and the time is not far hence when the dam will be built and what are now cheap lands will be even more val table than those of the Salt River valley. The lands in Paradise valley are as level as a floor and the soil has the finest of citrus fruit values, Every well of water in the valley is pure and soft and without alkali or any mineral matter whatsoever. You can own a ranch in this fine valley ranging in size from so acres to S20 acres for from $10 to $20 per acre You have everything to win and no chance to lose. Make your invest
 ment today. You will be glad have complete survey. maps and 'isting of this valley and will be pleased to show you these fine lands See Fred A. Dioble, Paradise Valley Land Agent, 11S North First Ave; INone 1893 With Griffin (Alonel. dk
