} Sept. 4, 1897, 10:30 a. m.—Just now, vben I took dad his cup of coffee, | und him poring over a bill and look-

ig worried to the verge of distraction. \t last I drew from him that The | Weekly Wag is wagging all the wrong |} way and is bound to go to the wall niess he can secure a few articles

} from some comic writer of note. But.

' though he has written to several with that object, nothing has come of it. “In a word, the paper has turned out

| a ruinous investment for me,” he eon- cluded bitterly.

As I came up stairs, feeling utterly miserable and depressed, a- happy thought darted into my mind. Men

, failed. At any rate, “without a trial! , there’s no denial,” and a recent inci-

cent opens the way for me to make the trial.

A few days ago, while aunt and I were whiling away an hour in the Brit- ish museum, she bowed to a librarian. Iie responded to her recognition with @ courtly bow, and a polite smile re- laxed for the moment his clean shaven, inscrutable face.

“That was the celebrated Mr. Rut- lind, the writer of those clever arti- cles, my dear. I met him last week at Mrs. Pelham’s,” she explained as we passed on into another room. Seeing that she had turned as red as peony, I concluded that he was a ‘libate as well as a celebrity! But he

ied him, for, strange to say, dad had een speaking of him to me that sunie orning, when he had _ enviously yinted out an attractive announce- ent in a rival weekly’ to the effect iat a series of brilliant sketches from ue pen of the widely known humorist, ‘olf Rutland, would shortly appear in 3 columns. I am very glad now that e chanced to see him, since it paves e way for me to call on him and ex- ain in confidence the sad straits of be Weekly Wag and beg of him to mtribute something to its pages. Aunt mentioned that he lives at For- est Gate, in a _ beautiful residence known as Olive Lodge. So tomorrow morning I shall take heart of grace and start on this forlorn hope.

Sept. 5, 1897, 1:10 p. m.— What a day of days this has been! I really ought to have dated it in red ink. This morn- ing directly the dear, unsuspecting dad bad started for the city, I put on my

sailor hat and sallied forth on my se- cret mission.

About two hours later I mounted a broad flight of steps to the thresho! of

Olive Lodge, and | must confess that while I waited admittance my courage seemed to ocze out of my finger tips. “You are a little simpleton, Rose Har- vey, quaking and shaking as though you were going to face an ogre instead

boy in buttons ushered me into a large drawing room, very handsomely fur- nished, but lacking in pretty trifles. Giving the boy my card I subsided into an easy chair. As I did so I caught sight of myself in a pier glass, and was relieved to see that I looked perfectly self possessed—which I cer- tainly did not feel.

The next minute the curtained door

swung open, and “the celebrated Mr. Rutland” entered the room. Unless I is much mistaken a gleam of relief ished from his steel gray eyes as they ighted on me. Possibly, since my unt and I bear the same names, he d expected to see her, and of “two vils” would rather deal with the less- ! Producing the current number of ie Weekly Wag, I explained—rather ruptly, I’m afraid—the nature of my sit. While he listened his gaze of polite ttention became a stare of unbounded amazement, and, instead of accepting the proffered paper, he sprang to his feet with an exasperated gesture.

of a wit,” I said angrily to myself as a

young lady! lt is utterly out or tne question that any article from my pen should appear through the medium of The Weekly Wag.”

The slighting emphasis with which he named the poor little weekly, and the withering glance he cast on it, made me tingle with rage and mortifi- cation.

“Then there is nothing more to be said, except to apologize for having troubled you wit& this ‘preposterous request,’” I said, rising to my feet. And making him a stiff little bow, I moved toward the door. He had the politeness to hasten to open it for me, and [| passed out with all the dignity I could summon. At the same moment the hall door was hastily opened, and a tear blurred vision of a tall, straight figure in cricketing flannels made me redouble my efforts to repress my in- eltnation to burst out crying.

Removing his cap the young fellow aeld the door open for me, and keeping my smarting eyes bent on the ground I hastily made my exit. Never in all the 19 years of my life had I felt so an- noyed and resentful.

“So much for my ‘happy thought!” I reflected briefly, as I descended the deep stairway into the station. Hav- ing ascertained that my train was not due for 15 minutes, I fell to pacing the platform, where the flaunting posters of many a prosperous compeer of the luckless little weekly I still grasped gave a yet keener edge to my disap- pointment. Turning in my perambu- lation I was surprised to see the fan- nel clad figure of my tear blurred vision hurrying toward mie.

“The old bigwig has repented of his insulting refusal!” I thought hopefully,

. while I bowed in respense to the young : fellow’s dof® of cap. ‘tainly did not look a bit like I imag-

“Excuse me, Miss Harvey, but there has been some unfortunate mistake, and I have followed you here in the hope of straightening matters,” he said, his quick breathing and height- ened color testifying to the hot haste he had made. “I am the Rolf Rutland who scribbles nonsense; my uncle is a savant, and only writes for the scien- tific journals.”

“A savant! No wonder he was so annoyed at my request!” I exclaimed, blushing painfully. “But, really, know- ing you write Lumor, he might have guessed I had made some such mis. take.”

“Ah, but he did not know it until ten

minutes ago. I have ‘great expecta- |

tions’ in that quarter, and have kept my frivolous talent a dead secret from him,” he replied, with a whimsical smile.

“Then I hope you will have no rea- son to rue this stupid blunder of mine,” I said impulsively.

“I should certainly have rued it sad- ly if I had never discovered it—which is a rank Hibernicism, I suppose.” And a mutual laugh set us both at our ease.

» “And now, Miss Harvey, with regard to The Weekly Wag, I shall be most pleased to contribute to its columns,”’ he said, as eagerly as though he were a struggling aspirant, anxious to see his effusions in print.

In the midst of my delighted thanks the train dashed in, and all was con- fusion. When he had handed me into a carriage he told me that directly the cricket match was over he should run into the city and see my father. Then the train moved on, and as our eyes met in a last glance, I saw a look in his that made my heart dance as it had never danced before.

About 5 o’clock there came a tele- gram from dad, to the effect that Mr. Rutland would dine with us at 7. In a flutter of delight, I helped aunt to improve our menu and then hastened to make my dinner toilet.

When, half an hour later, dad and Mr. Rutland entered the drawing room, I was surprised to see how much older and distinguished he looked in evening dress than in his flannels, and for the minute I felt quite shy. But his genial frankness of manner soon brought us “in touch” again, and I have passed the most charming evening I can re- member.

Sept. 5, 1898, 10:45 p. m.—My wed- ding eve, and exactly a year since the day I made that absurd blunder. And now, thanks to the spur given it by Rolf’s pen, The Weekly Wag is the foremost of its class and its editor his cheery old self again.

“But I shall never forget,” he said to me this morning, “that it owes its success not to the editor, but to the editor’s daughter!”—Exchange.

Cricket Versus Baseball,

Life is more strenuous in America than in England, and this is shown in the sports of the two nations. Take the the game of football as an illustra- tion. In the American college game the tackling is lower, harder and surer than in the English game. The backs hit the line as one man, like a batter- ing ram. Every yard gained or lost is of great importance. Year by year the game grows more complicated, more fierce, and more perfect mechanically.

It is getting to be like a fine piece of :

machinery in the harmony of the sey- eral parts. In England they play the game more loosely, much as their fa- thers did before them. Cricket and baseball are the national games of the respective countries, and nowhere de national characteristics appear more is evidence. Cricket is an all day, lel- surely, social event; baseball is an hear ef wild excitement. The English game

y is a canon of the game. Base-

Franklin Set !t Up.

The North American Notes and ‘veries Says the first printing press in ‘fontreal was set up by Benjamin

ranklin in 1775, in order to print iinifestoes appealing to the Cana- linns to cast their lot with the colonies farther south. The press was not long

} operation, and was removed to the

United States, but the vault in which it was set up is still standing. It is in the Chateau de Ramezay, a quaint old building whose history is contempo- rary with that of the city, and which is carefully preserved as a relic of the Trench regime in New France. Frank- lin’s idea from the first was to include Canada in the confederation, and he wished to include Ireland as well. His journey to Canada later, however, con- vinced him that there was no possibil- ity of the Canadian possessions joining in the revolt.

What You Pay For Medicine

Is no Test of Its Curative Value—Pre- scriptions Versus Dr. Chase's Kidney- Liver Pills.

Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills are just as much a doctor's prescription as any formula your family physician can give you. The difference is that Dr, Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills were per- fected after the formula had proven it- self of inestimable value in seores of hundreds of cases.

Dr. Chase won almost as much popu- larity from his ability to cure kidney Gisease, liver complaint, and backache, with this formula, as he did from the publication of his great recip2 book.

The idea of one treatment reaching the kidneys and liver at the same time was original with Dr. Chase. It ac- ccunts for the success of Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills in curing the most complicated ailments of the filtering organs, and every forni of backache.

As a family medicine Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills are unapproached. They keep the kidneys, liver, and bow- els healthy, active, and regular, and 60 prevent and cure nine-tenths of the ills to which humanity is subject. One pill a dose, 25 cents a box, at all deal- ers, or Edmanson, Bates & Co., To- ronto.
