Hunting for
Romance
~
By C. B. Luca.

pSE
Miss Eileen Danvers had been
stenographer with White & Company
for four years, and had come to ac
knowledge to herself that she was a
bit past twenty.
She had taken up stGnography in the
first place because she had to support
herself, and the next because a girl
had given her a list of eighteen mil
ionaires who had married their steno-
graphers and loaded them down with
love and diamonds. The eighteen did
not comprise the full list but were all
that the girl could think Of at a mo-
ment'S notice.
Miss Eileen took the place at White
& Company's without making any in
Quiries of a social nature. She rea-
sOned without any reason for reason
ing that Mr.. White was waiting to ad-
mire, love and marry her. In fact, she
made out in her day dream that he had
been Tilted several years before, and
that he would tell her all about it
when they came to talk in confidence.
She had the honeymoon trip all
planned.
Mr.. White proved to be a fat man,
whose eyes could not see how his feet
were getting on. He had been mar
ried twenty-one years, and had often
been made to wish that he had never
married at all. SO had his wife. He
was blunt and brusQue.
Mr.. White entered the Office after
the new stenographer had waited an

heard miles and miles away he said:

Nothing for the hospitals"

"And don't show me any sample sub

"Then why don't you go"
Because, sir, you hired me as your
stenOgrapher yesterday"
"Then you ought to have said so long
ago. Get to work"
Was there any romance there? Was
there any chance for any?
And the Company was a man 70
years old, who never came near the
office, but often sent down note to
his partner, reading:
II am glad that business Is good,
but don't let that lazy stenographer
leaf on your
The bookkeeper? He was So years
old and shaky in the knees, and ex-
pected to be fired at any moment.
His assistant? He was callow and
crosseyed and his mother had forbid
den him to have a dream-book or
romance.
The shipping clerk? He was en-
gagged to three girls already, and his
salary Of eight dollars per week was
undergoing terrible strain.
But did Miss Eileen despair? You
don't know her if you think she did.
She'd look for her bread and butter
inside and her romance outside.
And there was Guy Taylor, young
man Of twenty-three. He had been
romantic from his babyhood up, and
six years as f1oor-walker in a depart
ment store hadn't worked a cure. He
had moderate salary, and he had to
live in moderate way, but the idea
was ever present that some rich WO-
man, young or old, was going to offer
him her hand and heart--and her
bonds. 1t might be on his personality,
and 1t might be for saving her life.
He rather hoped that it would be for
the latter, for he was true knight at
heart. At his boarding house he had
let 1t be known that his true name
was Brian D'Artagan, but out Of defer
ence to the owner of the store he had
temporarily dropped 1t for that Of Tay-
lor.
