There was only one thought In her
mind Melville had gone to end his
| life because she had so cruelty reject
ed him. She seized the lines from the
startled hired man and whipped up the
old horse. The beast responded nobly,
| but to Harriet it was a snall's pace.
| The river hove In sight. She was out
before they stopped at the bridge, and
then stopped, painting. On the bank
just a few yards from the road sat
Melville, calmly fishing. Harriet
stopped long enough to get her heart
back to its normal beat and then crept
silently toward him.
Melville was staring out over the
river, far-away look on his face. The
minute her arms encircled his neck
he knew who it was, and took her in
his arms.
She did not sob until her whole con-
fession q love had been made, but
Melville kissed the tears away. The
sun was slowly sinking. the shadows
were on the river, it would have made
splendid ending had not Harriet re-
membered her trunk"

II am helping out here partly to rest
my nerves, but mainly to do what |
can to help win the war. My eyesight
won't pass me for the army"
Harriet did not seem to be able to
believe 1t all, so quickly did every
thing happen. There was such an at
tractive little ivy-clad church in the
village they could not resist it. But
on the way back to the city Mr.. and
Mrs. Melville Reynolds had a chance
to think it over. AS she nestled close
beside her husband on the softly up
holstered seat Of the touring car,
Harriet counted the buttons on her
dress idly. Rich man. she started
on the second round. There remained
one more button. She hesitated to
pronounce the next two words. Her
fingers closed on the button and she
was just going to say poor man"
when the button slipped off into her
hand She sighed in relief. Melville
smiled knowingly.
What if it had been poor man,
dear?" he asked.
ut would have been all the same"
she answered as she placed the button
in his open hand and let his fingers
close on hers. "Rich man or poor man,
you are my own dear man."

DREDGING OCEAN FOR JEWELS
Company Has Faith That Exploration
of South African Sea Bed Will
Be Profitable.

Word comes from London that a
company with powerful financial back
ing has been formed TO dredge the
ocean bed along the southwest coast
of Africa and the sands along the adj
jacent shore for diamonds.
The demand for diamonds is now so
great that the mines of South Africa
cannot supply the market. This is due
to the fact that the war crippled the
mining industry and at the same time
increased the distribution Of wealth.
especially in neutral countries. Men
and women are wearing diamonds to-
day who "a few years ago never
dreamed of possessing such expensive
ornaments.
For some years large diamond
chimney has been known to exist at
the bottom of the sea near Luederitz
hay, on the southwest coast of Africa.
The sand dunes along the shore have
become richly imbedded with diamonds
washed up from the submarine depos-
its. These dunes have been mined
with fine results.
The new company is prepared to be-
gin mining operations at an early date,
The English government will get 40
per cent OF the diamonds found. Two
weIl-known South African interests
are backing the undertaking. The sub
merged chimney is the only diamond
mine ever located on the bottom OF the
sea.

1t would be proper to allow him to see
her home. He seemed to think 1t
would. 1t seemed no time before she
was. bidding him good afternoon and
inviting him to call again at her
aunts gate in the village.
She looked after him longingIy as
he went down the road. He was just
the type of man she had always
dreamed Of, but alas he was poor.
His every appearance told her that,
and he had said himself that he was
working on a neighboring farm-a

she was not going to permit that to

there remained two months of 1t.
What II he fell in love with her? She
would make sure that he didn't-not
permanently, anyway. She would in
vent some yarn that would scare him
of.
AS Melville Reynolds, Harriet's res
cuer, was trudging along the road his
mind was on the little girl he had just
left. She was plucky little thing, he
thought, and 1t was hard to keep from
admiring her. She was a pretty lit
tie country girl-the very kind of
girl he had made up his mind to marry
some day when he found her. He had
found her, he could not help but think

But the next day Melvilles love
ambitions were shattered. Harriet
let him know In very airy sort of
way that she was leader in the very
best society of the city, and all that
sort of thing.

him to grow sentimental she always

not to call on her again. She was
dear little girl even though she was

course, he did not guess that Harriet
had made up the society role to show
him just how impossible love-making
with her would be. But despite 1t all
he proposed to her the day she an

Melville did not wait to plead his
cause. He went away without saying
a word, leaving Harriet wondering
to laugh or cry. She did not
have time to do either. Just few
minutes remained in which to catch
her train, and she hurried to get
ready.
The train was late, and as Harriet
waited at the station she had an OPP
portunity to think it over. She had
been an idiot to act the way she had,
she decided. Even If he was poor he
was perfect. What was poverty COM

$1,000 Worth of Books Are
Added Every Year.

Andrew Carnegie's beneficence is
represented IN Topeka by the $4,000
library building at Washburn college.
This building was erected in 1907 and
is one of the most beautiful buildings
on the campus
In the Washburn Carnegie library
more than 10000 volumes of all kinds
of literature are on the shelves. This
representes an investment of more
than $4,000. The building is at pres
ent used as headquarters by the Col
lege Y. NJ. c. A and Y. W. c. A. and
has in one part the famous Fisk
sociological library contributed by
Professor Fisk. There are 2.500 vol
umes in this section alone, which is
exclusive of the general library. There
are two or three recitation rooms in
the library building and offices of
few of the teacehrs.
The Washburn Carnegie library is
kept up to date by appropriations
from the library fund set aside at the
time the Carnegie foundation gave the
building. From this fund $1,000
worth of books are added every year.
