I don't care for riches, and I don't care for society now. ‘We can have a sweet little home, with lots of flowers and vines, and books and pic- tures. I will want nothing else, with your choice. I will make you happy, and in time I will give you all the wealth you want, just because I love you and want to do everything I can to show you how much. Late that night Lioyd Harvey left the house and faced the rough bi in hts conviction that he had found the tenth girl. nay, the thousandth girl. ‘He was poor, that {s in money, but rich n youth, atrength and manly attributes, and had a bright future before him. Now he felt that it would be glorified by her presence, and that with her bright eyes to nerve him to his task, he had a Titanic strength to accomplish his plans and wrest from the unwilling world all that he desired of it. So matters ran along. The wedding was not to be for a year yet, but the time was speeding away swiftly. Edith was not,one.of the society girls, that is, she did not belong to the “swagger set,” not being able to keep up the pace that was set therein, her parents being in only moderate circum- stances, She sald she did not care, and had no inclinations toward such a life. ‘At any rate, when Delancy Worthing- ton, one of the leaders In the society set and a, wealthy bachelor, saw her one day on,the street, and a few nights later got one of his friends who knew Edith (o take him to her house for an introduction, that young woman's heart fluttered with gratified vanity, hope, and perhaps, ambition. It soon became the talk of the city, the infatuation of Worthington for the ‘poor but beautiful Edith. She accepted every attention he gave and was seem- Ingly greatly pleased. Lloyd, saw all this and was troubled. “L actually belteve you are jealous,” she sald, when he spoke of the matter. “1 am not jealous, I do not think a person can love truly and be Jealous— and:1 do love you truly, you are all of life to me. “ “And you know I love you, don't you Lioyd? Don't worry about me, let me have my little flng before I settle down. I don't care if Mr. Worthington has got a yacht, and a, pair of thoroughbreds, and-an ‘ncome that makes one dizey tu think about, I wouldn't “exchange for him for twice what he has. ‘Lioyd wan satisfed. Worthington'’s {rlends did not under- stand him. He seemed serious in hla attertion'to Edith, But he had seemed «erious in hla attentions to other giris not of his set before, to thelr sorrow, ultimately, He drank a great deai, gambled when- ever he felt like it, and had @ moral character that awful to. contem- plate. 3 A poor man would have been promptly ostracised by decent people. Mr. Worth- ington continued to be recetved with open arms. One night he called to see Edith. He had been drinking, and was a little reckless, nor did he notice her mother sitting In a qulet corner of the room where the light waa not very bright. He wasted very little time In preilm!- The Tenth Girl. BY GASTON HARVEY. POSH 9S8. naries. He grabbed Edlth's hand tn his And attempted to pull her toward him He did get his arm about her, and she struggled away from him. “Don't get mad, Edith,” he sald. “It's all t—I love you and {t will be all right “What do you mean by ‘all right,’ Mr. Worthington—do you mean you want me to marry you?’ “Sure—yes. Any off time. I'm ready when you are. Edith’s mother rose from the darkness and silently came to where the pair stood, “[ will be very giad to have you for a son-in-law, Mr, Worthington,’ she said. “I heard you ask Edith to marry you." “We will have the wedding next month, on the 36th," sald Edith. And ine dased and wondering condition Mr. Worth- ington took his departure after o csn~ venttonal farewell. Edith sat before the fire and rumi- nated. The nasty little vine-covered cot- tage was not to be her portion—ahe would have conservatories and @ gar ener to furnish her with flowers. No cheap lithographs would adorn her walls. Paintings costing thousands of dollars would be none too good. She would ride In an automobile of her own, Bhe shuddered she thought of the cottage, xomchow she always associated boiled cabbage with vine-clad cottages, land she despised cabbage above all things, Well, her future wna assured. Worth- Ington would stick, she would handle him carefully, ard he would walk up to the altar all right. Or else—she remembered that her mother would make a very good witness and thought that a jury would not fall to give hee adequate compensation in case of a breach. Bhe suddenly remembered that Lloyd was coming to see her the next night. She did not want any unpleasant In- terviews, ‘Then, again, an immediate ane nouncement would help to hold Worth- ington In line.

Good-by- THE SULTAN’S PALACE. SORDING to a writer in the World's Work, the Sultan's Yildiz | palace at Constantinople 1s a monument to fear. It Is assassin-proof, bomb-proof, _earthquake-proof, fire proof, microbe-proof. Architects and en- gincern are bullding and rebullding in- cereantly. Some new secret retreat is always under way. ‘The entire domain is surrounded by an Immenee wall, thir ty feet high, and the chotceat troops of the empire stand guard around tt. An Inner wall, twelve-feet thick, with gates of iron, Incloses the private residence iteeif. The walls of the Sultan's dwell- ings are filled with armor plate, to re: aint projectiles. It !s safd that a mys terlous pass connects ith ten cret bed chambere, forming an intricate labyrinth, No one but his body attend- ant knows where the Sultan may sleep during any particular night. He has electric Iighta and telephones in his own apartments, but forbids them In Con- stantinople. Telephones might prove handy for conspirators, and he believes that a dynamite cartridge could be sent over a wire Into the palace, He fears electric explosions, so Constantinople stil gots along with gaslight. He hates the: word’ dynamo, because {t sounds lke dynamite. Balloons are tabooed, lest. one should pause over him long enough to drop a chunk of explosive. As to tho real luxury of the Yildis, “GOOD-NIGHT” AS DESCRIBED BY THE.MAN TO WHOM IT WAS SPOKEN McKinley's Secretary of State.
