You ::ow some of the same kind of gumption, prove to me that you are alive and up to the times—then I'll talk to you Ting-a-ling-ling! There was an interruption. Mr. Dorsett picked up the telephone re- ceiver. Some urgent call summoned him to another part of the building. He made such haste that he neither asked Alan to go nor stay. The lat- ter had not said all he wished to say, but he mentally decided that it would not do him much good to prolong the interview. He sat staring vaguely at a full- page advertisementin a daily paper. It announced that Dorsett and Co. would present a 12xZ0-inch American flag free to each visitor of the next day. That following was a patriotic local holiday. This was one of the catch trade opportunities that had built up the greal mercantile house. “Yes,” half-sighed Alan, “I'm not in Mr. Dorsett's sharp successful class, that's sure, and I guess Blanche 18 beyond my reach.” Ting-a-lingling! Again the telephone. There was no one to reply. Alan hesitated. Then he picked up the receiver. t and Co ?—ves. This is the freight house.

She ned teariul, t ¢he had been pleading with her hard-hearted father. The latter scowled fearfully at Alan, jabbing a telegram before him with a pen. “Well, young man,” he growled, “I i see you're here again?" acknowledged Alan val- returning Blanche's swecet, en- couraging smile, “1 fancied I had glven you my ultf- matum.” “Now, papa—" began Blanche. “1 have called on an entirely differ ent subject than the one we were re- cently discussing,” announced Alan with becomit seoand dignity. “Oh, you h: " questioned Mr. Dor ‘ sett skeptically, and then he turned to speak to his manager whom he had evidently just sent for. “See herz2, Barnes,” he said sharply, exhibiting the telegram from Spring- ) | field.” All those flags we ordered burn- ed up in a wreck. (et your men out | at once, no matter what the pay, we | must have the flags we adyertised. Dorsett & Co. never yet failed in a promise to the people. They musn't do it now." “I doubt if you can pick up five hun- dred in the whole market, submitted - the manager. “One word, Mr. Dorsett,” broke in “perhaps I can help you out in b o1t U “vea Yes, I have twenty thousand for sale” you doing flogz ed merchant ny, ! learned there was a short- in the goods tcday and a large nd tomorrow, 0 I-—invested.” When did you learn it?" chal lenged Mr. Dorsett, bristling up sus- piciously. “Turough your telephone, an hour gince. You tanght me with the prin- iple of capturing opportunities—I have tried to follow your advice. You can have those twenty thousand flags, Mr. Dorsett, at fifty dollars a thou- sand’ “What! double the market price?” “That is the penalty of being caught napping.” Mr. Dorsett waved his manager from the room. Then he started to leave himself. “Young man,” he said to Alan, “you've made a very good showing and seem to know how to improve &n opportunity when the occasion arises You may come up to the house to see Blanche once in awhile.” And when he had gone away Alan embraced the blushing lovable oppor- tunity at his side. And before they parted the wedding date was all but named. (Copyright, 1913, by W. G. Chapman.) sir, with twenty demanded the Jellied Grapes. This ia a good way o use the loose grapes in a basket.
