A0 TWO Raabace THAT YELLOW ROSE Also a White One—Emblems of Success Love and Hap- piness. “You have my ultimatum, daughter. When young Randall makes a man of himself and shows some pluck and ability in business, I may change my mind. Until then—" Col. Hector Danvers, magnate of the pretty Kentucky town of Lisle, termi- nated his very positive decision by bringing his hand down on his desk with a resounding bang. Marecia, pretty as a picture and smil- ing bravely and bewitchingly, placed a caressing arm about her father's neck. “You dear old dad,” she said, coax- ingly, “you couldn’t be hard-hearted if you tried. When you speak of being a man, where is there a more splendid one than my own Selden? No, I'm not going to beg or tease you,” insisted Marcia, with a grave shake of her graceful head. “You know best. We have talked it all over. I have told Selden what you have decided on.” “And what does he say?” demanded the old warrior, bristling. “That there never was a clearer headed, grand old friend of his father’s and himself than Col. Hector Dan- vers.” “Ha-hum! Ahem! That so? Look here, Maria, I don't Wwant to be harsh—"' privation meant. He was too proud | to send to home friends for money. | For a week he descended the scale— | from hotel to lodging, from that one bleak, stormy night to the shelter of a vacant building, hungry, faint and discouraged. He lay down on a bro- ken bench, but he could not sleep. In a painful daze he counted the slow hours go by, resolving with the morn- ing to seek work as a laborer—any- thing to insure regular food and a shel- ter. It must have been nearly daylight when a shot in the street without startled him, then shouts. And then one of the shabby windows of the place was crashed through. A heavy object struck him, nearly stunning him. The sound of rapid footsteps, indi- cating a pursuit of some kind, died away. Recovering himself, Selden ex- amined the object that had been sent flying through the window. It was a valise. It bore several travel-worn tags. On a silver plate near its handles were the words, | “Woodbridge, Palmer Terrace.” Carrying the valise, scarcely know-f ing what to do about it, Selden went out on the street. It was deserted,, and he could not account for the strange manner in which the valise had come into his possession. He had heard of Palmer terrace, a fashionable quarter of the town. Selden entered a drug store and consulted a directory. Sure enough, at a certain number on Palmer terrace there was a Joseph Woodbridge. Selden proceeded to the address.

A hostess wishing especially to hon- or a girl who was soon to be married invited twelve young women to what she was pleased to call a “Cupiditea.” This name alone was enough to excite the curiosity of those invited.

The writing upon the box she recognized at once. She tore off the wrappings, removed the cover, and viewed the first token re- ceived for over half & year from her lover—a rose. A rose, but a yellow rose. What did it mean? Puzzled, then perturbed, and then anxious, she tried to solve the enigma—in vain. And then, the next morning, Selden Randall himself ap- peared. He came up the garden path, smil- ing, joyous; .hope, health and devo- tion personified. arms with assurance and pride. “But the rose—not the white one?” challenged Marcia, as soon as the first greetings were over, Selden reached into his pocket and | drew forth his hand, overflowing with He took her into his | bright, shining golden pieces. “The yellow rose,” he said, “means | success.

As it I couldn’t afford to start them out in lite, with all fortune has favored me! Of course, Selden has no income, but a good deal will finally come out of the estate in litigation. Be sides, he's blue blood to the core. But, no—-it's better to try him out. His father lost nearly everything he had at cards and horse racing. I want to see it rooted out of Selden. I want him to get some real business experi- ence. Ah, me!” The colonel fell into a sad reverie. He winced as he thought of the jolly, big-hearted Daniel Randall, the father of Selden. He recalled how, in the old days, he himself had reveled in the high play of anti-reconstruction times, when a man afraid to bet was thought a cad. Selden went to a northern city with glowing ambitions. The pure, loyal, farewell kiss of Marcia aroused him to mighty resolve. Her last words lin- gered in his ears: “Dear,"” she said, “we must respect papa’s wishes—no correspondence un- til you have made a business record. When you feel that you have consci- entiously made it, send me a token— a rose.” “A red rose, yes,” said Selden—"the | emblem of love.” “No, a white rose,” replied Maria. “I have read a pretty story somewhere | that white was the emblematic guer- don of a soul strong to meet and mas- ter temptation. The red rose is too much the color of wine,” she added, meaningly. “When the white rose comes I shall go to papa, and then— come back.” Selden reached the city with suffi- clent to finance himself for a time. It was quite natural that he should take time to enjoy the sights. He was drew a box from his pocket—"I dare not give it to you until I know that I am forgiven.” “For what?” asked Marcia, in fear and trembling. He told her of his first downfall in the city—his last in that line forever, and then of returning to the wealthy Joseph Woodbridge a valise containing over ten thousand dollars looted from his house by a burglar, who, hotly pur sued, had flung it through the window of the old rookery. “Mr. Woodbridge has become al- most a father to me,” explained Sel- den. “I have a settled position, my path in business life is a sure one. Can you take the rose, Marcia?” “Yes, and wear it next to my heart. Oh, my dear, I am so happy, so grate- ful!” “And orange blossoms, too!"” said Selden, proudly. (Copyright, 1913, by W, G. Chapman.) MAKES RECORD OF ’QUAKES Invention of Italian Scientist Is Said to Be an Improvement Over the Seismograph. That the seismograph is not the last word in the matter of being ac: curate and immediate in recording earthquake tremors has been proven by the invention of an Italian sci entist, who, through a simple instru ment, by the aid of Hertzian waves has been able to obtain records -of disturbances throughout the earth. It has been generally known that earthquakes, besides giving rise to the mechanical waves such as are regis- tered on the seismograph, also have been the cause of great electrical dis- turbances in the form of wireless waves. The invention consists of a metal- filing coherer, which operates a bell that acts as an announcer of the dis turbances sought for record. This in- vention several times has registered vibrations down in the earth at small and great distances anywhere from 6 to 16 minutes ahead of the best seis- mographs. The United States government has taken the device into consideration and {8 about to have it installed in the several bureaus where seismographs have been relied upon for records.
