wondering mildly why she should be
called upon to shoulder part of Nelly
Morrison'S work, and a trifie dubious
at the prospect Of facing the rapid-fire
dictation MIR. Bush was said to inf1ict
upon his stenographer now and then.
When she was seated, Bush took up
a sheaf of letters, and dictated replies.
Though rapid, his enunciation was per-
fectly clear, and Hazel found herself
getting his words with greater ease
than she expected.
That's all, Miss Weir" he said,
when he reached the last letter. Bring
those in for verification and signature
as soon as you can get them DONE"
In the course Of time she completed
the letters and took them back. Bush
glanced over each, and appended his
signature.
That's all, Miss Weir" he said po-
litely. 'Thank you"
And Hazel went back to her ma
chine, wondering why she had been
requested to do those letters when
Nelly Morrison had nothing better to
do than sit picking at her type faces
with toothpick.
She learned the significance of it the
next morning. however, when the Of
fee boy told her that she was wanted
by Mr.. Bush. This time when she en-
tered Nelly Morrison's place was va
cant. Bush was going through his
mail. He waved her to a chair.
"Just a minute" he said.
Presently he wheeled from the desk
and regarded her with disconcerting
frankness-as if he were appraising
her, point by point, so to speak.

= 81 don't think there's any doubt on
that score. You have a good record in

'Now let us get to work and clean up

Thus her new duties began. There
was an air of quiet in the private Of

which suited Miss Hazel Weir to a

on the pulsing heart of a big business
The size of the check which Hazel
received in her weekly envelope was
increased far beyond her expectations.
Nelly Morrison had drawn twenty dol
lars a week. Miss Hazel Weir drew
twenty-five substantial increase
over what she had received in the ship

Hazel became actively aware that a
subtle change was growing manifest in
the ordinary manner of Mr.. Andrew
Bush. She shrugged her shoulders at
the idea at first. But she was a wom-
an; moreover. a woman Of intelligence,
her perceptive faculties naturally
keen.
The first symptom was flowers, dafn-
ty bouquets of which began to appear
on his desk Coincident with this, Mr..
Bush evinced an inclination to drift
into talk on subjects nowfse related
to business. Hazel accepted the trib-
ute to her sex reluctantly, giving him
no encouragement to overstep the nor

''That sounds like a threat, Mr..
Bush. What do you mean2"
Il mean just what 1 say. I will
admit that mine is, perhaps, a selfish
passion. If you insist on making me
suffer, I shall do as much for you.
There are two characteristics of mine
which may not have come to your at
tention: I never stop struggling for
what 1 want. And I never forgive or
forget an injury or an insult. If you
drive me to it, you will find yourself
drawing the finger of gossip. Also,
You will find yourself unable to secure

''This isn't the fifteenth century,"
Hazel let her indignation flare, "and
I'm not at all afraid of any of the
things you mention. Even if 1 weren't
engaged, I'd never think of marrying
a man old enough to be my father-a
man whose years haven't given him a
sense of either dignity or decency.
Wealth and social position don't mod

Your threats are an insult. This isn't

concluded cuttingly, you'd stand a
poor chance of winning a woman
against a man like-well-" she
shrugged her shoulders, but she was
thinking of Jack Barrow's broad Shout
ders. and the easy way he went up a
flight of stairs, three steps at a time.

With that thrust, Miss Hazel Weir
turned to the rack where hung her hat
and coat.
Bush caught her by the shoulders be-
fore she took second step.

For answer he caught her up close
to him, and there was no sign of de-
cadent force in the grip of his arms
He kissed her; and Hazel. in blind
rage, freed one arm. and struck at him

The lilies and goldfish in the exposition pond, one of the show spots at the recent San Diego fair, will give way to the apprentice seamen who will be instructed to care for themselves in the water in squads of 100 men.
 According to Captain w. D. Brother ton, commanding the station, forty per cent of the apprentices do not know how to swim and it was at his request that the city park commissioners granted the men the privilege of using the lily pond. Cable dispatches re- ceived in this country about the sink ing of the Tuscania recounted the fact that many of the men were picked up after being in the water several hours, their rescue doubtless being due to the fact that they were able to swim

KINGS SPIRITUAL ADVISER
 ENDS LONG PASTORATE

HONOLULU, Feb. (by maiD - One of the longest pastorates on rec ord in the United States came to an end here today, when Rev. Henry H. Parker, by resignation, terminated his active services at pastor of Kawaiahae church, after serving continuously for fifty-five years.
 Kawaiahae church has, ever since it's erection, been the church of Ha waii's royalty. All of the kings and queens since and including Kame- hameha " have attended the church and have lain in state in it upon their deaths. Queen Lilioukalani lay in state there last November, surrounded by various barbaric symbols of Ha, waiian royalty. The tomb of King Lunalilo, last of the Kamehamehas, is in Kawaiahae churchyard.
