By DONALD ALLEN. Mr. George (arney was a young man who had charge of the ‘“gents furnishing” department in a clothing store. Miss Kittie Parker was a young woman who had employment in & cloak and suit house. Mr. Carney used the subway to get to and trom his boarding house up- town as free as if he owned the outfit. Miss Parker did the same. I Mr. Carney, when luck was with | him, found a strap to which he could hine during his five-mile ride. % Ditto Miss Parker Alr.

Mr. Carney's uncle had died, as all uncles must sooner or later, and left him a dlamond horseshoe pin. Such pins are scarce and unique. Mr. Car- ney didn't prize his pin for the value of the diamonds, nor in memory of his uncle, but because he had been told that there were only two more like it fn the whole world. He wore the jewel day and night, and whenever a customer tcok notice of it he was given a discount of ien per cent. Miss Parker's aunt had died, as all aunts in this world are bound to do, was one of the sort that is wor pinned on the left ¢ide over the heart It wasn't scire noe unique nor yal sands of them, AMr. Carney seldom noticed a fellow. passenger of collars, cu'fs end neckties. He just happened to notice Miss Parker be cause she had a mole on her left cheek. She would have preferred to have had it on her right cheek, but as her Aunt Sarah said, it had a distingu: look where Nature had located it. Miss Parker happened to notice Mr Carney because he had a scar on hi« chin.
