Chapman.) “I don't say you shan’t marry my daughter, Mr. Wills,” said Hiram Oak- ley, stroking his white beard thought- fully. “I say that you've sprung this on me sudden like, and I want time to think it over.” “And’I say, Mr. Oakley, that Madge is of age and entitled to choose for herself,” answered the young fellow. “And since she has chosen to accept me, I am asking you only as a matter of form.” Hiram Oakley looked at the young fellow quietly. He did not mind Madge being married; she was flighty and had not been too kind to her father since her mother's death released her from what she considered unjustifiable | chaperonage; but Mr. Oakley wanted to know more about Herbert Wills, who had appeared in the town three | months before and taken a polmonl with him in his department store. He saw no harm in Wills, but the ! young man had a good deal to learn. So had Madge, for that matter. The mystery was solved a few days later when Madge and Wills contracted a secret marriage before an alderman. Hiram Oakley received a defiant note from the couple announcing that they meant to go their own way, unless he chose to make the first advances. What their own way meant was shown a few days later when Wills opened a smaller rival store imme- @iately opposite the Oakley premises on Main street. Revenge is not a good policy in commerce, but still Wills’ store opened: with a great flourish of advertise- ) ments and bills in the store windows. Wills made a specialty of displaying the same kind of goods as his father- in-law, only of a cheaper grade. Every- thing that was in Mr. Oakley's wln-l dows was in his son-in-law’s, but cut by one-third in price. And for a time Wills' trade boomed at the expense of Oakley's. After a while, however, things began to swing the other way. Oakley's trade went up and Wills found his counters deserted. He could not un- derstand. He did not realize that v.he‘ ] district was not one patronized by cheap shoppers, and that his shoddy 200ds and cheap stock hrd been tried and found wanting. Hiram Oakley, with no bills in his windows, was doing a roaring trade during the boom times. Wills found himself reduced to his last five hun- dred. And he was not taking in enough to pay the cost of his help. | As the sales dwindled Wills’ posters ' I linseed oil before wearing 2 became more flashy. Hiram Oakley, who had had no communication with . ticularly is this recommended & the couple since their marriage, knew 49ren’s school shoes. that the time was at hand. l But, after all, it was Wills who came to him—came in humbly, but looking ' man_thap he bad ' styles of coats and they tasten close to the neck In the Very Heart of the City of Lakeland, Fia.::d at en looked before when he defied of ley. ““Mr. Oakley,” he began frank!; come to tell you that I have: fool, sir.” Old Oakley looked him up and “There’s always hope for a ma he finds that out,” he said at le: “Don’t think that I've come : your help,” said Wills. “I'm a about Madge, that's all. Frank business can't go on another : And I don’t know what we are ¢ to do. You see—" And Oakley learned that he ; become a grandfather. 1 There is nothing that toucty, old man's heart so much. Oakligy, genuinely fond of his daughter, :. thought that the pair had had algy much of a lesson as they needgy “So I'm thinking of selling g moving to another town, sing tinued Wills. “But before I go you to forgive Madge and—and why I couldn’t succeed,” he ! out. “I thought I knew all the of the trade, with my New v perience.” n “So you did, my boy,” answer:{m ley briskly. ‘“You knew tricks heard of but never soiled my % with, nor wouldn't. “In the first place, you wer the business in a spirit of viu: ness instead of willingness, to & other man’s trade rather tha: lish your own. That can't hel; ing itself in the tone of the :® force. Your salespeople took tichg from you, and they lost custon: their unwillingness and bad m: “Then, again, you tried t0 same goods I did, but cheaper: People find out good from bad don’t repeat their purchases store that does them.” Wills swallowed hard, for the was a bitter one. But the s vindictiveness had been drive: him. pe “I'm obliged to you, sir.” ¢ “And you'll see Madge before ¢ next week—" i “Wait a minute!” said old - “Now it's my turn to speak I planning turning it into a comps opening a branch. In fact, quired some property for the - store, and if you like to be =¥ ager, I think it'll pay you bet# leaving town. I am retaini cent of the stock, and in time it ought to go to you And then I've only one ch do you say?” Wills grasped old Oakley's b pulsively. “I say I accept—but deserve it, sir,” he said.
