One of the most successful, aa well hs most representative banquets ever held iu South Kast Kootenay was that held last Monday night at the Kootenay hotel in Moyie, as a farewell testimonial to P. P. Mope, the popular druggist of that town, who departed from bachelonlom yesterday. The arrangements, although hastily made, were characteristic of Moyie people. They started on the theory that nothing was too good for such an occasion, and fixing the basis at $5 a plate, they kept up the pace to the glorious end. It was 10:30 when the guests were seated, and l-veryone present were loud in their praise of the artistic artunge- nt of the tables and the beautiful and appropriate decorations of the room. The ceiling was completely hidden by graceful festoons of bunting and evergreens, while on one side, just behind the chairman, hung a picture of the Queen. J. A, Harvey, of Fort Steele, officiated as chairman, ami J. P, Farrell, of Moyie, as vice chairman. To the right of Mr. Harvey was Mr. Hope, the guest, nnd to the left, Mr. Nicholas Pi-sod Davln, of Kegina, who was visiting fi lends in the cily. It was a hnppy crowd and as the courses were being served, there was one comment that wns almost universal, and ihat was to the effect that snch a magnificent feast nml perfect appointments told the story of Movie's rapid growth ami increased prosperity iu a language more eloquent than words Polio wing is the menu served : Oysters.

Alter the tempting viands had beeu freely discussed, the fragrant weed was passed and as the smoky clouds drifted upwards and were lost in the wreathes and fesloons, Chairman Harvey called for a cessation ofthe conversation, and then iu a feeling aud eloquent manner spoke of tbe occasion and Mr. Hope, the guest of the evening. He was followed by Mr. Davln, who responded to the toast of "Tbe Dominion." The gentle- m 111 enjoys the reputation of being one of the best nfter dinner speakers In Canada, aud bis eloquent eulogy on Canada and Canadians wns 11 treat to all. Following Mr. Davin oue toast after nuother was proposed until the subjoined list had been duly attended to, nud in n wny that reflected great credit upon the ability of Moyie citizens: The Dominion—Nicholas Flood Davln, BOARD OF TKADP. A Meeting Held and Officers Heeled fur the (insulin: Year. A meeting of citizens was held nt Wentworth hall Inst Mouday evening nud ollicers elected for the ensuing yeai as follows: President—A, Leitch. Vice President—W, T. Reid. Secretary-Trensnrer—P. ti,.

It was the sentiment of lhe meeting that ibe new ollicers arrange fur complete reorganization of the board, nnd prepare plans to secure the co-operation of the citizens during the coining year in tbe work for the best interests of Cranhrook and South Fast Kootenay. A SUCCESSFUL PALL. Quite a number of exchanges nre -tpeaking of ilie "High Joint Commission" Ihese days. One would think ihey were discussing the matter ftom a meal cutter's standpoint. Joint High Commission is better Hnglish and nearer the truth. There area few writers in British Co lumbia who show lamentable Ignorance :oiumeiiting 011 lhe elections in the State-.. One recently referred to llie 6 to-l plank ami " Kansas" platform. The editor ofa weekly newspaper is often condemned by those who Bhould Itave only words of prnise. Gratitude toward the home paper too often gives away to the desire to criticise, for all sins of commission and ommlsslon. And yet, the newspaper proprietor who Iihs the proper understanding ol his responsibilities and liberties, never uses the columns of his paper to play even or give vent to personal enmities. It is reported that the cznr of Russia is being slowly poisoned to death. We would nol trade our joh for llie czar's it Is true lhat uow and then we nre the recipient ot n cigar that would kill a mule, but the act is not performed with criminal intent, and the guilty ore always forgiven, if uot forgotten.

The ball given by the ladies last Tuesday evening at Wentworth hall, for the bent-fit of tlie St. Kugene hospital, was a marked success In every way. Perhaps there has never been a dance in this district where those in attendance bad such an enjoyable lime, The number present was very large, but when the tloor became loo crowded for comfort the dancers took it iu good part and enjoyed it the mote. About 13 o'clock a last)- lunch was served, after which dancing was resumed until a late hour. Arrangements were made wilh Mr. Wentworth for two reception rooms in the hotel, which added very much to the convenience of the program for the evening. The committees in charge of the entertainment were made up as follows : Ball committee-— Mesdames Mclnnes, Morris, Cosligan, Magee, Murphy, McConnell, Brown and Krickson. Decoration committee— Messrs. II Nevins, A. K. Watt, P. Rookes, K. Gunn, A, L- McDermot aud M. Rockendorf.

Mayor Houston, of Nelson, is also a member of lhe provincial house, and a probable candidate for re-election for mayor. Mayor Garden, of Vancouver, is another member of the provincial and a c.iudiuate fur lhe Dominion parliament. These gentlemen should divide honors with their friends. They are Carrying s Great Line ol Christmas Uoods. The Herald will venture the assertion that there is not another town In British Columbia the sue of Crnnbrook where merchants are carrying such fine stocks as nre the merchants of this town, ll would do the heart of a cynic good to see the preparations made for the festival holiday along the business streets. Il Is the same in every line, fiom pins to W'igous, and what Is more no mnn or woman can say that the prices asked aie not reasonable, Just remember Ihis and leave your dollars home this yenr, Don't be ft catalogue buyer, when the town where you live is furnishing your income, The merchants are always ready to pul up their money for the good of the town, flud do it.

If you send it back east it is gone from this community for alt lime. The Odd Pellows' Ball. Now that the social field is clear, the committee In charge of lhe annual Odd Pellows' ball will commence work at once. 11 is the intention of the members of the lodge lo make this hall the event of the year, nnd everything that can be done to give those who participate a good time will be attended to with enthusiasm, It is the visit of the members that the weather will permit those living in the neighboring towns to attend, and it is quite probable that the outside attendance will be large this year. The committee, composed of W S. Keay, Pred Pieper, A. I*. McDermot, Malt Rockendorf and ti. ti. Simpson, will hold a meeting at lhc lodge room tomorrow night to discuss the plans. A funeral was recently held In an Ontario lown on Sunday. Daring lhat week tbo ministers of the lown held a meeting nud eutered a protest against holding public funerals on Sunday, on the grounds thai they interfered with church sei vices. That crowd of gospel teachers should have lived in the early days when they burned alleged witches to Ihe stake. They would have been in llieir element, The Craubrook Herald says that John Hutchison wenl lo Pernie on Monday to inspect n few "barrels" of apples, as quarantine officer. Does Cranbrook usually get more than 300 barrels at a time, or what does Brother Simpson mean by "a few?"—Fernie Free Press The Free Press is unnecessarily agitated over the use of a word in a slang srtise in The Herald columns. Brother Henderson is evidently ignorant of the great American game of draw, or he would be familiar with the world-wide expression, 11 "few aces," meaning mauy. Asa uinirod, our Pernie brother is classed in the front rank. Has lie not heard a man with n fine string of ducks, answer the question as to how many he had killed, by replying "jusi a few." A few, literally, menus, of course, a limited number, but in the lexicon of hlang, has the diiect opposite meaning. "A few barrels" of apples, therefore, may mean oue or a do/en carloads. We trust we have mnde our position dear nnd that both the citizens of Pernie and Mr Hutchison will not lake the view ofthe matter as did lhe Free Press. If they did they would have some reasons for kicking. Well, "jusi a few." A New Store. G. T. Rogers, who is connected wiih Geo.

The Kimberley correspondent of the Spokesra nil-Review - has the following to say regarding lhe extension of the Kimberley branch to lhe Sullivan mine: The vexed question as to whal method of ore transportation from the Sullivan mine to the Kimberley station should be adopted seems about lo he settled by the extension ofthe Canadian Pacific's line, the Sullivan Group company paying ior the grading. The distance from the mine to the track is only a few miles bul at present this distance has to be covered by wagon and in consequence Ihere nre several weeks in the year when the mine cannot ship. Such a condilioii has existed recently bul shipments have been resumed at the former rate of about fifty tons daily. I.ast BUUlllier tlie company surveyed n line for n tramway and it was believed lhat this would he constructed though it was understood that an effort would be made to secure arrangements with the railroad company, ll is known that Manager C. II. Wolf visited Montreal lasl mouth to consult the Canadian Pacific officials in regard to building the railroad right up to the mine and it is believed thai the railroad compauy agreed lo do this if the mine would do the grading. The Spokesman-Review correspond enl asked Mr. Wolf fur a confirmation of Ihls report, and he said: "Yes, it is true that the railway company agreed to ex- lend its track up to the mine if we would do the grading, We have not accepted the offer as yet, but probably shall do so if we find that the grading will nol cost more tlm 11 a tram. The building of the tracks right to our ore bins would he much more advantageous that the erection ofa tram, both for outgoing freight and incoming supplies." There were twenty days during last month and llie first fifteen days of this mouth that tiie compauy could nol haul a pound of ore down Lhe mountain to the railroad on account of the soft roads, but the recent heavy snow storm bas made good sleighing and from now on lhe shipments will again be regular, At present the Sullivan ore is hauled by wagon from the mine to the railroad nt the foot of the mountain, which costs lhe company one dollar per ton. By this process also there is a loss of about two mouth's shipments in the year, during the rainy season, wheu the roads are loo soft to haul heavy wagons over. A Fine Running Shot. Harry Wright, of the C. P. R. shops, brought into Cranhrook on Sunday evening a very fine specimen head of a black tail deer, shot by him near his ranch at Swansea, "It was my first deer," said Mr. Wright. "I followed the tracks through the snow for a couple of miles before springing the quarry. Having lhe advantage of me In scent and sight he did not cultivate more intimate acquaintance than could be had at 133 yards, at which distance, although running at great speed, I cut him through the spine. To say that he was astonished may be accepted without dispute. So was I. He turned the scrde when dressed at 2233-4 pounds. There is no evidence of deer being about that district, save in solitary instances." Mr. Wright nlso examined the Pretoria claim, belonging to J. P. Bailley, and expresses himself astonished nt Ihe immensely Iim-showing. McVittle & Hutchison Dissolve. The well known firm of McVittle & Hutchison, real estate dealers and mining brokers, was dissolved last week. Both of lhe gentlemen will continue in business in the city, but along different lines. 'Mr. McVittie's surveying engagements and interests in coal land development has rendered it impossible for him to give his attention to the details nf the local business, and for that reason he deemed it hest to withdraw* from the firm. He has opened an office iu the Cranbiook hotel block fur personal convenience when iu town. Mr. Hutchison remains in the old ollice, where he has already effected some material changes in the general appearance. The Herald desires to say that the laie firm of McViltie & Hutchison have doue a power of good iu South ICast Kootenay. The boys arc hustlers aud they never get tired of singing the praises of this district's wonderful wealth and possibilities. They have spread the name of Cranhrook throughout Canada, the States and linglaud, as lhey were persistent advertisers, and believed that tlie way lo get a thing was to go after it, The gentlemen will keep ou hustling in their respective lines, and Cranbrook will always get the besl of it at their hands. Another Acquisition to Cranbrook. Dan McNeish. of Fort Steele, has leased the Kast Kootenay hotel bai ami will open for business ns toon as the license feature te adjusted. MINES «»«»« AND MINING The llnmiiii.il Boys' Strike. Il seems quite evident that the Hamilton brothers have at last been rewarded for their persistent bird work on Palmer untnin. Last Monday John Hamilton was iu town with some samples of lead-copper ore taken at 30 feet of depth in the shaft ou lhe Betlvllle mineral claim, and six feel from the foot- wall. The specimens shown by Mr Hamilton are magnificent ones, and give every evidence of a rich vein. Oo ihis properly ta a 250*foot tunnel, aud a 30-foot -shall. The strike was made in a 12 foot drift In the abaft, and four leet of olid ure is exposed, Ou the footwall there is three feet of gouge richly mineralized. Ou the face of ihe drift copper carbonates characterize the showing, and ou the surface there is a most promising evidence of /.inc. The lead has beeu cul 13 feet aheady, but cannot yet tell how wide it is, as there it uo hanging wall yel iu sight. They will keep on drifting to determine definitely the width of the lead. The people of Craubrook are iu hopes that this will prove a substantial find. It is within only a few milts of Cranbrook and would prove a great benefit lo the town. And then, again, the Hamilton boys have been workers since tbey came iuto the country, and not tatkets. If every man in ihe hills of Soulh Kast Kootenay had put forth the same energy as these gentlemen 1 this district today would be known as one of the very best in British Columbia, Sl. Eugene tuatiuil Meet inf. The Toroulo dispatches of lost week say that lhe annual meeting of the St. Kugene Mining Company was held in the Gooderham building A dividend of 3 per cent for the three months ending December 31, and payable January I, was declared. The report of the mine were satisfactory. The following directors were elected: President, George Gooderham; vice-president, T. G. Black- stock; W. H. Beatty, W G, Gooderham, B. Gooderham, John A. Finch of Spokane, James Cronin of Moyie, J. C. Drewry of Rossland. E. P, Heatou and George Sumner of Montreal. It is expected that the same quarterly dividend of 3 per cent will be continued. Mr. Cronin will coutinue to act in the capacity of managing direclor. The block of 300,000 shares which was pooled one year ago ha? been taken up by Messrs Gooderham and Blackttock, who held an option on lhe block at 50 cents a shaie. Ooldeo Fleece. Prospector: Work commenced on tbe Golden Fleece mineral claim, situate on Tracy creek, or. Wednesday. Mr, Wm. Forsyth will have charge of the work which will consist of running a hundred foot tunnel. A Big Besl Closed. Rossland, November 23.—It is reported that a big deal has just been closed by Mr. James Breen, representing himself and a New York syndicate, who hss secured the control of the five million shares of the Dominion Copper Com- oany. The consideration te withheld. The owners of the Dominion Copper Company were Messrs Mackenxie & Mann, the railroad contractors, Hon. George A. Cox, of Toronto; Mr. J. Ross, a mining man of Spokane: Robert Jaffry of Toronto: Hugh Sutherland, of Winnipeg; A. J. Roberts, of Spokane and W. T. Smith, of Greenwood, It is understood that the new parties in control willator.ee begin active development and that a smeller will be built lo smelt the ores. Il is said that some point on the Kettle river will be selected as a site for the smelter. The idea seems lo be to use the ores of tbe Republic camp with those of lhe Boundary, as tbey produce a perfect flux. The properties owned by the Dominion Copper Company consist of the Brooklyn, Stem- winder, Idaho, Standard and Montezuma, all adjoining the Phoenix. Mining Ne*. The camp Of Phoenix expects to ship [300 tons daily in February. Paul Ilandley, who lias thc contract for hauling ore for the Sullivan company, is busy building sleighs for lhat purpose. The Pollard boys who have claims on Palmer mountain, adjoining the Hamilton boys, are running a 200-foot tunnel this winter ou their property. The Society Girl of Moyie has been closed down for the winter season, as ihere are no facilities for shipping ore from the mine to the road on a large scale. Nelson Tribune: Buglneef Fowler of the London & British Columbia Gold- fields has got things down pretty fine at the Ymir mine. The company's total operating expenses in British Columbia are now less than I3.25 per ion, and as the recovered values average about $8 per ton it is nol difficult to see there is a big thing in the Ymir for its shareholders. Nelson Tribune: The secretary of the Athabasca gold mine has issued a statement to the shareholders in which he says that ten stamps operated by the company yield a profit of £4476 for the ijuarter ending August 31, which is equal to 2(3 per cent upon the issued capital of the compauy, The further statement is made lhat thc cyanide plant when in operation will yield an additional profit of from $400 to I500 per month.

Nelson Economist: In a recent interview at Montreal, Mr. Jay P.

The present capacity nl the smeller is (hhi tons a day, aud this is tn he doubled as soou as new furnaces can tie built, Up to a couple of years ago the erroneous idea prevailed that nothing under $12 or fuore was worth handling. In those days freight rules were high and smelter charges excessive. A change has happily come over the scene, ami to-day quality figures in lhe calculation as well as quality. Improved transport and smelling facilities permit of the profitable handling of ore which heretofore fouud place on on the waste dump, if touched at all. It is an important factor in considering resources nt the country, to know that fu ore is valuable in commodity, as there are mountains of such material available. The smellers at present are having mine ore offered than they can handle, and iu order to keep up wilh the demand, lhey are increasing their capacity and adopting the most advanced method of treatment. Iu ihis particular onr local smeller is well in the fore ranks and is being put iu order to ac— commodate all coiners. Mow Canada Is Advertised. Mr. J. C. Holden, president of the Ames*Holden Company, who recently relumed to Montreal afler a two and-a half years tour around the world, concluded an interview iu the Montreal Gazette hy stating. " Two things iu particular are making Canada more widely known and more highly considered the world over, hirst her purl in the war, which has excited interest not nnly in England hut in every part of thu globe; secondly, the wide-spread advertisements of the C. P, R. Wherever Mr. Holden went he tiiuiiil the pamphlets of the great rail road. Ile fuund them in Russia, in Norway, iu Turkey. When the P. and O. steamship reached Hong Kong all the pusietigers wished if possible to go nn hy the Empress bonis; for, after experience ot llie ships of many lines and many nations, Mr. Holden declares them unsurpassed for comfort, table and attendance. Even in out-of-the-way up-country inns in Japan, where guests are forced to eat and sleep on the floor and their diet consists of fish in every possible form, the C. P. R. advertisements were found, Canada's reputation has never stood higher than now." BY EBEN £. REXFORD. W"; HO WB8 thut young mun with Start lhc Year Right.

Salt Luke City, Nov. 17.—Barton Se- Wi.-ll of New Vork, and Samuel New- house of Highland Hoy fame, have joined local parties here in the purchase ofthe Cactus group of mines in southern Utah, owned by capitalists in Paris. The price is not stated, but it is believed lo be over $100,00, Jacob Bamberger, a local capitalist having confidential relations with the Guggenhelms, returned from the east today, and says that while there has not yet been an amalgamation between the Guggenbelms and the American Smelting and Refining company, such a combination will he per- tecled about the first of the year. This combination, it is claimed, will be a direct advantage to producers. On account ofthe increased demand for sll- vvr and the restricted production ol lhe united smelter interests, the belief is that the white metal will admance to 75 cenls within ninety days and to *f 1 within the next year.

"Oh, you needn't try to plead innocence," retorted Miss Nnney. "Vou ought iu be ashamed of golug with tlmt Murklimu fellow, and you know it." "1 don't know any such thing," answered Margery, facing her mint bravely/'JoliiiMarkliainisn respectable young man. Vou don'l like bim because there used tu be trouble between llie Maikhauis and the Armstrongs. That happened before either of us wus born, and there's no reason why we should keep up the quarrel. If we see tit to like each other 1 don't know who's going lo prevent our doing so." "I um," answered Miss Nancy, grimly. "Vou needn't think —and .John Markham needn't think—that a cent of my property '11 go into the hands of any one uf that family." "Oh, you enn do juat us yuu -see lit to ubout your properly, of course," said Margery. "1 haven't anything to say about t-Kat. but If you think anything you ean do about it will prevent John and I from liking each olher, you're quite mistaken. Hi* don't want your property, but''—with the prettiest lii- tlc blush Imaginable und a, softening of ihe voire, ut the Import of the words, "he does want me." "Margery Armstrong, I'd like to know how far this mutter lias gone," cried Miss Nancy, in wrathful surprise. "To judge, by the way you talk one would suppose it is ull settled between you." "It is," answered Margery, with eyes that never flinched beforo the angry ones of her aunt. "I promised John tonight, coming home from church, that I'd marry him as soon us he has a home for me." Miss Nancy fairly gasped for breath. "Vou're 11 fool," she said, as soon as she could command her voice, "to take up with that fellow when you might marry the squire's nephew!" "I wouldn't marry the squire's nephew if he was tin* lust man on earth," said Margery. "Look at htm alongside John Markham and I know that down in your he-ait you can't help owning that lie's an Insignificant apology for a man. All you can see to admire in him is his money, I'm sure, und if he had a thousand times more than he has I'd have just as iiim-li contempt fur him us I have now." "Vou may see the day wlieu you'll wish you liud some of his money," said Miss Nancy. "Wait till you're John Murkhnm's wife and poor as poverty and things 'II look different to you. Of course he thinks und you think that I'll change my mind when I llnd oul that I can't prevent your marrying him. But you were never more mistaken In your life. Marry that fellow and I'll see thut not a penny of mine goes to you." "Pleoae yourself about lhat," answered Margery. "We don't want yonr money. We're both strong and wilting to work and we'll get along. Don't worry about thut." "That sounds well, but you'll sing a different tune by and by," said Miss Nancy, "Just remember what I tell you." "All right, I will." replied Margery, and then nhv went up to her room, not to think about wlmt her annl had said, hut about the things she had talked of with 'her lover, qts they walked home from church together. Miss Nancy sat in the kitchen and nursed her wralih, "Just to think tlmt she defies me!" Rhe said lo herself. "Jf she'd imurv Squire Brand's nqphew she'd be the wealthiest woman In town, for she'd get all I 'have and her husband 'II get all the squire has. It's a ahame- a downright tfhninel- that she can't be mnde to behave-sensibly. But then, she's an Armstrong and Ihey were always terribly set in their wny. She lakes it from our side of thc family. But that doesn't make it nny easier to bear with her foolishness. I'd got my heart set on 'lier marrying thc squire's nephew and I hate to give it, up. But 1 suppose I'll have to. for 1 know slie James T. Laidlaw, of Fort Sled, has been appointed attorney for the Kootenny, Perry Creek, Gold Mines, Unified; succeeding Mr J. W. R Voung. What foi?

But maybe, when she tells that young Markiiain what I said ubout the properly he'll think twice before he decides to marry a girl without anything." But Miss Nancy didn't got much comfort from that, for down deep In her heart she didn't believe that John Markham was that kind of a mun. She had often said to herself that "If he wasn't 11 Markham he'd be a pretty nice soil nlu fellow." lt seemed to have been tacitly agreed on between Margery and her aunt tlmt nothing fiirtlhor was to he snid between Ihem oflwilt the matter on which they hml such a wide difference of opinion.

That's what I mn coming to. The fact of the mallei' is thai litemturo does not pay uh well as il did In llie dnys of sonic fellows you read nbout in history uml newspapers. lu my mind there's nothing like being n hanker or n landlord or something as easy, from what I enn learn ull one has to do i.s to buy property. If the returns im> Invested in just the right wny you cuu buy moro property, and so on nud so OU llllil so ou. Then the fust thing you know you have n big bauk nccount, uml with u big Imnk account you can Btnrt anything you desire. You enn build railroads or do most anything to make more money. 1 have been advised that the most difficult thing ubout the whole matter Is to get the start. Unless one makes a start tbeie can be no finish. There nre several ways of making n stmt. One is to save from your child- hood days right along through rapidly up- pronehlug nnd disappearing years. Thai seems to be n very successful way. Tlu trouble is that one yets iu the habit ol saving, nml when it comes to spending one will hesltnto ns much as if a toolb were to be extracted. 1 will not condescend to countenance this method, lu tho lirst place, my childhood days have passed. Then again I da not net onough to make saving worth the while. By ibo time corn plasters are purchased for Mrs. Shy, the grocers' bills are paid nud tlie shoe man stood off anothei month I haven't onough loft to—to—to use even ns a pocket piece. There's another way. That Is to rob the children's bank. Huh I I'm ufraid it wouldn't do much good to go through the bunk owned by tbe Shy lets, As 1 remember, it was on tho 7th of the month that the last haul was mnde out of the little receptacle. So that's another plan punctured. But 1 have It! Many a girl With wads and wads uf money. Tie up to a lifelong < ipnnion who bas money iu the bank, iu her reticule, hi her own name and in lier slocking. I might be able to accomplish thla feat If it were not for a certain record In a certain book in n certain town. That record was mude mnny years ngo, 'Twas n plain marriage license. (Thai represents u long nnd continued sich.) When I tirst spoko to the other person interested about getting a license, I did nol think thnt money ever would count. ■— (Another sigh.) So that scheme is out of the question. Ferhnps the best, easiest and most comfortable wny to become n banker, capitalist Or landlord is to be reared in the lap of wealth. Simply paddle in luxury. Hovel in raisins nml silver spoons. Have a pa with so mnch richness tbnt If you wnnt a 10 coul shine you can pay a quarter for it. Grow up with nothing but monoy around you, Tbon, when you're old enough to become n rcspectnblo looking capitalist* embark in ibo business on your own accoual and your dad's credit. Without doubt tlint's the best wny. But all of us can'l do It.

In bis reflection, the door was Hung open and a messenger hov sang out: "Mr. IIobbs! Very Important No answer." And depositing u puck age banded John his book for signature, John recognized (lie handwriting of tbe address and hastily tore It open. A large bunch of violets met bis nsiou islieil gaze and a letter, which read as follows: Mr. llohhs: Sir—Allow me to return your property, which hy Enme mistake was sent to mc. Aa to iny ntyle.

Was the whole world turning topsy lurvy and with It Ids powers of comprehension? First, a letter of acceptance for an invitation which lie had not given, nnd now ibis withering refusal and tbe return of bis poor, despised violets. Well, good- by lo bis dreams of love and future bliss and tho castles he*haii built in Ids vain ambit Ion. Tlio disappointment lie would hear so bravely no one would suspect its existence. But bow explain to Miss Pavenport her mistake, and, picking up hor letter, he carefully reread it. Iler quotation of tbe word "accept" wns a bit strange lis blindness suggested bis own use of the word. What If he bad made a mistake In the letters and Inclosed them In the wrong envelopes? In that case he could understand all but his own asinine stupidity. Was ever man lu such a box before, engaged by letter to a girl bo did not love and refused liy the womnn bo did love aud in a way lhat lefl uo chance for explanation that be could sec. Perhaps later he might Had u way to enlighten Mabello as to mat- tors, but bow to explain to Miss Davenport without cruelly wounding her pride and making matters worse? Of course be must call tonight aud take her to tbo concert, trusting for some chance to straighten out tliis tnuglc. John IIobbs never forgot thnt evening, ami bow be avoided actually committing himself by asking that question he presumed be was expected to t*.t, bat in spite of bis uncomfortable pOUltloU ami unenviable frame of mind he found himself enjoying the music, aud could not but notice Ids companion's attractlvo face and charm of manner, and thai ber well bred composure was enhanced by a quiet mod- csty and seriousness of manner k which he bad been blind before. Somehow John found himself saying ho would call on Sunday evening, which bo did, and really enjoyed Uie companionship of these two relined women. This call wus repealed several times during lhe following iuon»i, and slill John had not asked tlte question, but ou the contrary had begun to wonder why be had not before noticed the many attractive qualities Miss Davenport possessed. As no word of explanation had passed between hlm aud .Mabclle Whitney, it was useless to anticipate any hope in this direction. As for Mildred Davenport he bad grown to admire the many beautiful qualities of her womanly sweetness. As a daughter she wus devoted ami thoughtful, ami then the thought grew iu his mlml, would slie not make an Ideal wife to I he man who should bcforiunute enough tu wlu her? Had be really any chance, be asked himself, a dozen times n dav, and one uight soon after ho quietly lold Mildred tbe whole Btory, saying, "And now that my mistake litis been tbe menus of my iiml- ing out what real love is ami should be, will yon, knowing all the slory of my stupid blunder nnd hnppy awaken* Ing to a belter, truer affection, aeeepi a devotion which I will prove by mj wholo llfi' Is yours and yours only';" and Mildred's acceptance was bIv«o nud not Implied.
