Being the Story Who Drank of it qnd C ~WiTland had insisted that Newbold share his hospitality, but that young man had refused. Kirkby had a little plack not far from Denver and easily accessible to it, and the old man had gludly taken the younger one with him. Newbold had becn in a fever of anxiety over Euid Maitland's il but his alaim by the i but to wai He inquire ing ac t! he kept her ro ve with priceless blossoms, but he had sent no word, Robert Maitland had promised to let | him krow, howes €0 soon as Enid could sce him, and it was in pursuance of a telephone message that he was in the library that morning. He had not yet become accustomed to the world; he had lived so long alone that he had grown somewhat shy and retiring; the habits and customs of years were not to be liglitly thrown aside in a week or a moiith, He had sought no interview with Enid’s father heretofore; indeed had rather avoided it, but on this morning he had asked for it, and when Robert Maitland would have withdrawn he begged him to remain. “Mr. Maitland,” Newbold began, "1 presume that you know my unfortu- nate history.” “I have heard the general cutlines of it, sir, from my brother and others,” answered the other kindly. “I need not dwell upon it then. further Althongh my hair is tinged with ! “‘ h i1} il § HUSHIH “Do You by Any Chance Belong to the Maryland Newbolds, Sir?” f—= gray and doubtless I look much older. I was only twenty-eight on my last birthday. I was not born in this sec- tion of the country, my home was in Baltimore.” “Do you by any chance belong to the Maryland Newbolds, sir?” “Yes, they are distantly related to ! a most excellent family of the same name in Philadelphia, I believe.” “I have always understood that to be the truth.” “Ah, a very satisfactory connection indeed,” snid Stephen Maitland with no little satisfaction. “Procced sir.” “There is nothing much else to say about mysclf, except that I love yowr e —— handlin PLAIN AND v to Ler mairinge to timately w | more or lc | Maitiand wou could do no better than comrait her , almost as old as my own; as for the e 3 We are State Agents for ' The Acme Steel Geeds Company | of, Certzin Persons nquered daughter and with your permissfon I want her for my wife” Mr. Maitland had tbought long and seriously over the siate of affairs.

Mr. Maitland was no bad judge of men when his prejudices were not rampant, and hLe looked with much sat- | isfaction on the fine, ciean limbed, | clear eyed, vigerous man who was at | present sulng for his daughter's hand. | Newbold had shoved off his beard and had cropped close his mustache; he | was dressed in the habits of civiliza- | tion and he was almost metam- : orphosed.

I am sure that she would never give her hand with- out her heart, and therefore, she must decide this matter herself. From her own lips you shall have your answer," “But you, sir; I confess that I should feel easier and happier if I had your sanction and approval.” “Steve,” said Mr. Robert Maitland, as the other hesitated, not because he intended to refuse, but because he was loath to say the word that so far as he was concerned would give his daughter into another man’s keeping, “I think you can trust Newbold; there are men who knew him years ago; there is abundant evidence and testi- mony as to his qualities, I vouch for him.” “Robert,” answered his brother, “I need no such testimony; the way in which he saved Enid, the way he com- ported himself during that period of isolation with her, his present bearing —in short, sir, if a father is ever glad to give away his daughter, I might say I should be glad to entrust her to you. I believe you to be a man of honor and a gentleman; your family is disparity in our fortunes, I can easily remedy that.” Newbold smiled at Enid's father, but it was a pleasant smile; albeit with a trace of mockery and a trace of tri- | umph in it “Mr. Maitland, I am more grateful | (Cootinued on Page (. | Everything Hardwar« g their GALVANIZED Orange Box Straps and Corners [carried in stock.
