remarks Don Miguel. Do you con- slider others then? Do you never stop to remember your Stella, and the ca resses of your Stella? As, no, for like all men you are as fckle as the wind, and once weary of woman, you turn ruthlessly to another, anyone, as long as 1t means a change. The old love grows obnoxious in your sight. know all about this, Don Miguel. And also know that this pink-faced girl does not belong to us, nor will she ever fit in with us perfectly. And woe be unto a man like you if you allow yourself to become entang1ed in her long, pale hair. She will prove much harder than any gypsy girl to get rid of, when in turn you grow tired or her and her dropping ways You need bold, strong women in your life. Your love is lusty, and would kill such as her. Think, think, while there is still time, my Miguel. I bear you no Ill., will, even though my arms are empty and you have grown weary or my kisses only wish to see you protect ed against yourself, for you are i'm pulsive and headstrong, you throw yourself into the path of danger every time, unthinking1y."
 Here the girl sank onto the ground, sobbing violently.
 
 shook with the force of her emotions, and her black hair tumb1ed about her. covering her nudity. She abandoned herself to grief completely. and never once looked at Don Miguel again. He stood towering above her. non plussed at the sight of her tears, for man1ike he could not bear to see wo- men cry. Finally, moved by her pro- 1onged weeping he bent down and touched her kindly with his hand. There, there, Stella, don't take on so, things are not nearly so terrible as you fancy. Come, wipe your eyes, and tell me that you will do all have asked you to, like a good girl"
 Still no answer from Stella, who continued to sob.
 Miguel sat down next to her and put one arm around her waist, and tried to soothe her to the best of his ability. At last the girl took her hands away from her face, pushed back her hair from her eyes and stared disma1ly before her. She never once looked at Miguel beside her. It was as though she were unaware of his presence.

WILLIAM RoCKEFELLER

For two decades Wall street gossip has had William Rockefe11er-John O.'s brother-a very sick man, suffer ing from an incurab1e malady and due to be carried away by it at any moment Now at last it appears that MT. Rockefeller, who Is nearing his S1st birthday, is paying some atten- ton to these rumors. At least he has started the erection of $250,0o0 mausoIeum at North Tarrytown. N. r.. which eventually will house his last mortal remains.
 Whereas John D. Rockefelfer's vast wealth literally rolled in on him, William Rockefe11ers far from mod est fortune is a product of aggression. For more than 40 years he was the speculative member of the Standard Oil group, engineering monumental deals in which millions were moved as pawns. Before his retirement he was credited with having been inf1n- iteiy more familiar with Standard oil and it's notifications than any of his assoctates-not excluding his brother
 Temperamental opposites, William and John D. have one thing in common besides wealth and both are Baptists

STELLA'S ANSWER.

"Don Miguel hasn't honored me thus for some tfme," remarked Stella sul1en1y, and with a slight break in her voice. as Miguel entered her tent. ''I don't suppose that it Is for my sake that you come"
 "I came to ask youzwhat 1t is that makes you and Gemma always quar- rel with the Princess I1ona?' said Miguel sternly and compelling her to look full into his eyes.
 And what do you care what it is that makes us do so?'' asked the girl, X with an impertinent toss of her head and a sheer.
 .I do care, and I shall have an an- swer before leave this tent pursued Miguel angriIy. Come" shaking her by one shoulder, ''answer me, Stella ''
 Stella shrunk up within herself, and bowed her dark head upon her knees, but gave no response. Again he shook her, and a bit more rough ly, so that the light scarf that she had tossed round her came off in his hand, leaving her panting and furi- ous, as shea saw just what he had done, and how angry he, himself, was.
 With an irnprecation she flung her arms wide, barring her nude. gypsy body from the waist up to MiguePs eyes, and s1anting herself back, in sinuatingly, as she laughed up into his face derisive1y. ''This is my reason, here they are, each and every one you know too we'll" she cried, point ing dramatically to her arms, her lips and her full bosom, these, all of me being deserted for that pale-faced doll. Do you think that gypsy blood runs like such as hers Do you think that we allow our lovers to leave us. when we offer such beauties as only gypsies can possess? Have you forgot ten the laws of the tribe, my Miguel? :? If so. you are indeed bewitched and am quite right in hating this for eign girl as I do?"
 And tell you again." shouted Mi gue1, stern1y, "that I won't have 1t. No one in my band Is going to be per- secuted, come what may. If you and Gemma feel that I1ona has offended you in any way, you come before me at any time, all three of you, and ad- just your wrongs, that is the only fair way, and the only way I shall con- sider.''

USE OF CHRISTMAS STOCKING
Custom Comes From Sunny Italy
Where Poor First Used Long
Knitted Purses.

Ar7HE custom OF hanging up
stockings on Christmas Eve
- comes to us from land far
across the ocean - from
sunny Italy.

old St, Nicholas used to 90 about the
streets after dark and throw through
the windows of the homes Of the poor
people long knitted purses, TIED at
both ends, and containing much need
cd coins. These purses were made OF
yarn, and when united looked not un
. like a fo0tless stocking.
Finally, as time went on, the poor
people, hoping thus to remind the
more fortunate Of their needs, used tt
hang these empty purses out OF tn
windows on the night before Christ
mas, so that a gift might be placed
In them.
In the north country, where I'M
weather is cold at Christmas time, tn
purses were hung by the chime!
place in the hope that st. Nicholas
would drop his Offering down tn
chimney.
When the purses went out Of fashlol
stockings as the thing most like then
were used In their stead, and that 1
why we today still observe tho pra'
! tice and the custom.
