They don't have a Jot of men of your type here." The driver flushed. he sald quletly, "but I guess they don't travel In the Pleasantville set." He laughed as he thought of the snobbish social circle of the little suburb where even the trolley was barred. Nan read his thoughts and laughed in sympathy. Her visit had not been pleasant. She chatted on as they sped along. The man was singularly Intelligent for a workman, and she enjoyed his chat as much as she did the presence of a real man after six weeks with the pale youths who constituted the male ele- ment of Pleasantville society. She was almost sorry when they reached the town and drove up to the statfon. The driver ushered her into the walt- ing room, purchased her ticket and sleeper, checked her trunks and finally came toward her. "Here Is what I had to pay out," he sald, offering a neat memorandum. '"This is the change." She glanced at the celns and smiled. "That's the last of my greenbacks" she laughed. "Now I'll get gold again. 1 like it lots better." "We don't take to it on here," he smiled. | "But I've got to give you one," sald. "I have no more bills." | Bhe held out a five dollar gold plece, and after a pause his hand closed over it. "Thank you," he said. "But you would have been welcome to my serv- ices. 1 hope you have a pleasant trip." "That's a real goodby," she sald Im- pulsively, remembering the frigid fare- well at the house. "Will you shake bands?' His hand closed over hers with a pressure that almost crushed It; then, with a bow, he turned and left the , room, Trane she settled herself for the she hour wal Nan as 1h thine tobe a Biden; and when she had written a long ac- count to Mrs. Montrose she sought to put theughts of Pleasantville out of her mind. It was easy enough to forget Mrs. Montrose and the colorless Bert, but somehow the expressman would crop up in her memory. She assured herself over and over again that she did not care for any man who was content to drive an ex- press wagon, and yet all the time she knew that she did care, and when a few weeks later she entered the Orom- wells' ballroom and at the far end saw a face she thought familiar her heart gave a bound. It could not be the exSressman, she assured herself. The Cromwells were most exclusive, and yet"-- He came toward her with his hostess on his arm. "Mr. Newhall has been asking about you, my dear," smiled the old lady. "It seems that you met back east." "I do not flutter myself that Miss Udell recalls me," he smiled. "But I bad the good fortune to be of some slight service at her departure." "Well, you can recall it to ber," sald Mrs. Cromwell plactdly. "I must go and look after that Templeton girl. Look after Paul, my dear." "I suppose you are surprised to see me here," sh® smiled. "May I ex- plain? The conservatory is very handy." | Nan bowed, and he led the way. "You see," he began when they had found a palm screemed nook, "my fa- ther has some old fashioned Ideas ' about work.

Absent-Minded Readers Leak AH Kinds of Queer Things. That strange things are sometimes found in library books is well known , as a rule, librarigns, afe not ao willing to disclose formation on the matter. The ial however, recently interviewed gentleman who has Shatge of one of dhe biggest of our public libraries, and trom were gleaned some facts lich are well worthy of record not be generally known, ry at in most libraries all returned are thoroughly examined, dusted with the "disinfectant rag" (as it is term- ed in library parlance) and, if neces- sary, repaired before being replaced on the shelves. As a rule, books are treated fairly well by their borrow- ers, but at times one comeg back in 80 dilapidated and soiled a condition that it has to be destroyed. Im such instances, if the delinquent is known he or she is made to pay for a new copy and membership is suspended for a time. These instances, how- ever, are very rare, says a writer in Tit Bita. Eternal Hairpin. In every big library, said my infor- mant, after cogitating deeply as to whether he should give the informa- tion requested or mot, there is one man whose sole work consists in ex- amining books that have n re- turned, and that he occasionally finds queer things between the leaves {s perfectly correct. Whatever he Sods he brings to me, and I am some! a at the kind of articles find a hiding-place withip the pi of our books. Few volpmea, for in- stance, borrowed by lady readers come back without at least one hairpin which has been used as a book-mark- er, but I would rather they used that implement of feminine usefulness than turn down the pages, which is unpardonable | Kitty's Secret. | Many letters fall out of volumes which have been returned to the lib- and in one ease I remember the ive, which we Jere d enough to read, containk 8 propo sal of marriage addressed to "My Own Dear Kitty." The letter was not in an envelope, and, though we might have found the name and address of the owner, we are far too busy to return such unimportant things as love let- ters. But the next day a pretty yours girl appeared, asked to see me, then, with many blushes, explained that she bad left a letter in "The Heart of Midlothian" and would be glad to have it back. I had the mis- sive in my desk, and when I drew it out and handed it to her so rapt a look of pleasure came into her face that I tolt sure as to the nature of her | answer, and rather envied the happy man who had won her. Best Kind of "Lover." Paper money and cheques are some- times found between the leaves of books returned to a library, and oc- casionally the sums involved amount to quite a high figure. I read recently Sarin a certain well-known librar a bai d = "Much Ado About Nothing," was returned with a ten-pound note pinned between 'the leaves, together with a letter written in a lady's hand, » which read as follows: "As nearly every person is always more or less in need of this wretched thing we call 'money,' 1 feel sure that this ten pounds will fall inte the hands of one who needs it. With it goes my best wishes, From one wha has money to spare and is a lover of Shakespeare." | Ta * ml THE AFTERGLOW There's a light of wondrous softness Called by some the afterglow, And it follows day's receding As the shadows eome and go There's a light of Time-in fancy That bedims that afterglow, As its shadows are extended, To the years of-long ago.

Big Royal Appointment. More than 1,200 tradesmen appears! ed in the New Year's Gazette--not the uncomfortable part of it, but a section which tells them that thew, are entitled to use the royal over their shop fronts. Their warrants, however, as royal tradesmen do not carry the right fly the Royal Btandard They are of all sorts and dessriag tions-~butchers, bakers and can stick-makers, and, moreover, chimel sweepers, heraldic painters, sword ers, interior decorators, gold lace a geographers, pe makers, bridecake makers, purveyors of tur- tle, and--inspite of the horrible exw) ample of Henry I.--there is a maker, of lamprey pies. There are hat makers and confees tioners at Marienbad and Hombu: bootmakers, chemists, and steel ofl makers, rose growers, tobaeconists, and fruiterers all over the country, and in India and Malta; purveyors lavender water at Plymouth Wallington, and even a "contractor of fat" and of "billet wood." There is a maker of yachting shoes and a manufacturer of tweed, and Highland cloaks. 4 Mean. A lady was reproaching a bachelot friend for never having married when her husband, a little bored perhaps, said gruffly "He saye he could have cut me out and married you if be had wanted to."
