I "A handsome cotiple," wan the ver- pDct of Sudbury folk ^ho saw Tom Kla7D<>ii and Uabel VIckers riding to- l^ether.
They would dash throajch the rll- laite and over the downn, Muhel upoa ^er big black horse, Tom benlde her <na hl8 chestnut, helter-skelter, the Wnlraals wild with ex<'lteinent, until they reache<l the edge of Close HIU <Jap. Then they would pull rein and •it gazing down on the scene helow.
From Close Hill Onp one could see !for miles across the level country. iit was a famous country, and hoth Tora's and Mabel's ancestors had had k share In tho making of It. That jwas why, when the villagers of Stid- fcufy 8pf)ke of them as a handsome leoilple there rose Into their mlnd« a (ifff-lon of the match they would make.
Tom was a young lawyer of Sud¬ bury, and had lately succeeded to his xather's law hii.<<ii)eHH. Mabel's folks had been squires once, and were still ihe social leaders of the town. In contrn.1t with her younger sister, Nora, |who loved nothini? better than a hook, pfahel was a dnshlinr horsewoman.
Rhe hnd persuaded Tom lo take tip Irlding after Ihelr eiiKiipement. imd {Ihey ro<le every afteraoon, much to tho |(llscredlt of Tom's business. Still, jcllents will forj;lv.» a good deal In a

to ride with," said Nora. "T metta, VDlesH she rl^es with other men."
•That's right," said Tom. "Tell Uahel I release her. And, Nora, youll come and sit with me sometimes, won't f on ?"
"Indeed X will," said Nora. "T think you are as brave as the bravest man on earth."
Tom smiled, hut afterward his face grew very wistful. It was a black fu¬ ture, that of a crippled man In a wh'^eled chair. Nev'-r again would he stand on his own feet, never would any of the delights of life be his. And he missed Mabel. He longed for her. nnd, though he could not blame her for her decl.slon, he felt somehow as if the flnenesn of her had vanished. If she haij given him the chance to .say the first word!
Yet, as Ihe days went by, and Nora kept her promise. Tom began to find himself looking forward fo the girl's advent. .Vora and he hnd always been the best of frienfis, hut now there seemed the possihill'y of some deeper feeling. There wns that In the girl vhich he fiad always thought to find In Mabel and never found ; something spiritual, .some quality shyly hid from lhe world which now began to blossom Ivir hlin.
One flay Nora came dandng Into his room.
"Torn." she said, "Dr. Tremayne thinks he can cure you."
"Who's Dr. Tremayne?" asked Tom.
"Why, the famous .surgeon. You've heard of him."
"Iiow have you heard of him?" asked Tom.
"Why. Toiii. 1—I went to see him to ask ahout you. And he's coming fo Sudbury lo-morrow week, and wants to make an examination."
Tom was deeply touched. Tie had nc heart to tell fhe girl that his cnse had been pronouTicefl hopeless by the best specialists In the land. lie con¬ sented to see Treitiayiie.
"I can cure you," said the .surgeon, after an hour's examination. "You will have to lie In plnster for sjr- veeks. but that's better than Vtijng in IX chair for sixty yen -•'•,.» ¦^

away when tho accident happened. Jlabcl's horse bolted, and she was ^nng to the ground. Tom, riding hot after her, pitched over his horse's !bead down the acclivity of Closo HIII JGap.
It was a clear drop of four hundred !feet; but fortunately his clothing ^angbt on some bushes, and he waa pnspended against the side of the cliff, •thirty feet from the top. When Mabel Utaggered to her feet and saw him there she screamed for aid. Fortunate¬ ly this was forthcoming. Tom was rescued with ropes and carried home. I "It's odd I cnn't feel my feet," JBald Tom, when they put hlin to bed.
The doctor's diagnosis wns com- iuBnlcated first to Tom's famll.v, then to Mabel—last of all to Tom. Hi.s spine wns broken, nnd he would never ilde, or walk, again.
Mabel went to see Tom and wept pitoou.sly to see him In his chair, wrapped In blankets, and helpless he- low the waist. She went away, and did not return.
It wns Norn who cnme to see Tom A week later. Nom and Tom had al¬ ways heen Rrent friends. The girl was twenty, though she had only recently put up her hiilr In u knot. She was exactly the opposite of Mabel. No liody paid much attention to her, for Mabel hnd the knnck of monopolizing admiration.
Nora was crying, nnd she could not deliver her message to Tom for a long time.
"You've got something to tell roe, Nora," snld Tom, Joking with her. "Orit with It!" U-^
Norn looked nt him tragically. "Tom, I—I can't—" she hurst out.
Tom stretched out his hand and tnok the girl's In his. "Yes you cun, tny dear," he said. "Is It something uboat Mabel T"
Nora's tears flowed fast. "Shfr— *he doesn't want to marry yon. Tom," «he aald. "And I think It's wicked," she added, with flushed cheeks.
Tom went very white but he looked mt Nora steadfastly. "Did she tell you to give me that message?" he asked. ' Nora nodded mutely. Tom stroked 'her hand, "All right, tny dear. I can ^bcar that too," he said.
"But I can't!" saW Nora In despera¬ tion. "Tom, do yoa know why?"
**I rappose sho doesn't want to bo 'linked np with a broken cripple," said ITom. "Well, I don't blame her, Nora." r 'It'a bocauae alio won't havo aajooa

Norn had come np every morning from Sudbury, returning nt night. No- bo<ly knew; they thought she ha<l ob- tainefl a position la town. Mabel knew least of all.
"Nora," snld Tom, "when I ara well you are troing to tnke me home."
rt wns almost a scandal in Sudbury when Nora and Tom came home to¬ gether. The n<>ws of Tom's recovery had spread and nearly all the town ¦was at the station. Ami Tom came up Ihe platform, walking!
Mabel, flushed from her ride, wns there to meet him. Her horse wns tethered to a hitching post. Sho looked beautiful In her riding habit, and con¬ scious of it. And here was Tom, wait¬ ing at Nora's side!
"Why, Norn, you snid yon were go¬ ing to Brentwood for your vacation!" she cried. "How on earth did you meet Tom?"
"We've both been there," said Tom. "We went there for our honeymoon, Mabel."
Positive Proof. A northern Michigan Indian once came to town. In the days when FJm- met county was "wide oi)en," and ac¬ cording to an ancient and time-hon¬ ored custom, the saloonkeepers pro¬ ceeded to illl him up on firewater. The next morning he wa.s found dead about three miles front the vlllago, lying face downward In a shallow pool of water. The verdict of the <'oroner'8 jury was that he had met his death hy strangulation, as a result of tlie too free use of Intoxicating Il.iuor. A certain saloon man, who was su.s- pected of selling him the liquor, was arrested nnd placed on trial for the o.ten.se. "How far from town did you sny you found his body?" asked the saloonki . '=< attorney of a witnes.s. "About threo miles," was the reply. "Well, thut clears my client," said the attorney, turning to his opponent. "You haven't any cnse against him at nil—you inl/;ht .lust us well let hlin go rlj.'hl now." "How .so?" queried the prosecutor. "He didn't get drunk on auy of our goo.ls, that's sure," w^as the prompt rejoinder, "for If he had he never would havo reac^ied a poiut so far from town,"
Just Like Dad.
"And what." inquired the visitor, who was "heing nice" to little Bob¬ ble, "nre you going to do when you grow up?"
"Be a business man,'' responded Robert, "like father, lie look me down to his odice last week, and I'hi going to work liko him, and huve a good time."
"And what nre you going to do In buslne.ss?" pursued the vlssltor.
"(loing to do just Uke dad," repeat- e<l the youngster. "Catch the train every morning, and when I get to the offlce light a big cigar and sit dqwn at my desk and say there's so much work to do, it's no u.se beginning till after lunch, and then go out with another big man and ent and eat till I can't eat any more, and then go back to business and ask everybody else why the work ain't done, and then get so mad because nobody does anything that ru go home early, and be sq tired I can't do a thing except read the paper and smoke more big cigars and blame the goTernmenL"
1 He came quietly and without ac¬ claim.. .Nobody knew where he came from or why he selected the quiet lit¬ tle house Ol) the outskirts of Merchant- vllle. Kven Mrs. .Mary Springer, the ' pretty young widow who kept ' the twarding house, could not elicit any news ns to his business. He sat In his room writing for the greater part of the dny, and In the evening he mingled with the other boarders on the front porch, or In the living room, listening
' to their Idle conversation, and ventur¬ ing now and then a quaint suggestion. After he hnd spent a month in the house, the others knew no more about him than they hnd known on the eve¬ ning of his arrival. But they learned to like hira and to court his quiet friendship.
Because he was In the house all day, Mrs. Springer grew to know him well. There was something vaguely familiar about his soft voice; certain manner- Isms awoke vague recollections, as if uhe had seen him before. He reminded her. In some way, of someone she had known In rhe little fcestero towu where she had spent her girlhood.
(Jradually he won a pli^cc In the hearts of the members of the house¬ hold. Ilis Uttle acts of kindness were everywhere aiipareiit.
But, most of all, he became Invalu¬ able in .Mrs. Sprirmer's daily routine. When tlu; cook left suddenly, he per- .nitted the laiullady to tie a gingham apron nroiiud his waist, and for two days, until the new cook arrlvej» '•'•' took entire charge of th(,^ki^i>»;',„_ n^ seemed to have a^tii^;; r,,^ hou.sework nnd when ther*^ „.„s nothlm; lo do in the wa.v of booking he pottenil about ''"'^yii**?: repairing nn old fence which
JJ'i', tiei-n broken for months, putting
¦ new wire on the chicken coop and painting the back porch until Uie boarders did not recognize It as an old friend.
Tbey fell into Ihc liahlf of sitting on the iM)rfh and talUing. She told lilni about her youth; how she had lived in Wisconsin, the ordy daughter ot the vil¬ lage <loclor; how slio had been self- willed and headstrong. Then she men¬ tioned a boy, Artlnir lIovvcU, with whom she had "kept company," as she saiil, for a year or mf)re, only fo for¬ get all aliout him when Dudley Spring- ' er, cifitled nnd supposedly rich, had visited tho town. She had finally run awny with the stranger, nnd then her enli;,'hteninent had begun.
"He db.Ml two years after we were married," she said, "nnd since then 1 have kept this bonrding house." "Have you never thought of going I back to the people at home?" He I spoke softly, and his sad eyes looked ¦ I Into tho distance. -
"I've thought nhout It," she an-, I swered. "But I couldn't bear Ihe Idea of going back there. I want the town- I folks, and especially Arthur, to think that I am hnppy."
"And aren't you?" His voice was hardly more thnn a whisper.
¦ "No," she answered, "I'm homesick i for the West—for him."
1 "Do you know what has become of I him?" i
! "He went nwuy and the girls with ^ I whom he kept' In touch do not know i where he hus gone." j "What would you do If you should \ meet him?" asked the man tensely. In i the depth of his brown eyes glowed a j smoldering fire.
"Nothing." She spoke disc'on.solatcly.
"He has probably forgotten all about
me by now." i "But If he hasn't and ho should ' come to you, what, would you do?" ^ I "I'd do anything In the world he I wanted rne to." I The man's hand was shaking; his
voice trembled slightly.
"Do you think you would know him
¦ If ynu saw him?"
: "I d<m't know. It hns been ten years ' 1 since I went awny with tho other man, hnd they say that Arthur took It hard ' and chang(Ml."
"What (lid you sny his name was?"
".¦\rtlnir Howell."
The man openixl fho magazine which he held in his hanil.
"Hero Is something which might In¬ terest you," he siiiil. "Look on page ninety-live."
She turned to the place indicated, nnd tliere, in big black type she reud the name Arthur Howell.
"Why!" she 'jasped, "he has writt<'n ' a story!"
"Yes," the man spoke sndly. '"I hnve soon his iiaine C(iunilos.s times In fhe big niugax.ines. He is u famous wri¬ ter"
"I'm glad; he deserves all the suc- ct;ss he has won." ' '"Do you know that he Is In Mer- chantvlUe?"
She started,
"What, In this town?"
"Yes, he hus been here for the past six months."
".\nd you know him?" she demand¬ ed.
"Yes," he answered slowly. "I know him ns well as I know myself."
Tho light of a sudden recognition came to her.
"Oh," she said, "are you—" .
"Yes," he answered slowly, "I am Arthur Howell." '
"And why—why did you come here?" Her breast rose and fell quickly; tears bordered her eyes.
"I came to take you away, dear, to a home I have waiting for you In the West W^lll you go?" ^
"Yes," she answeerd softly. "FU do anything In the world yon want me to." i (Copyrlcht, 1*17, by the UcClnr. Kewspa- per 8yiidlc»t«k)

Why Roads Need More M.9ney.
.Mr. Knillsibniifs lestini'iny als" had u beuriii'^ ')n the reas'iiis f'lr the appll- (¦alioii of the roads to the Interstate C'lmnwrie rummission for a gi-iicrul jidvuii'c in freight rates. He showed thut "lllll- the pric{> of transjiortatinn has (Ic linc'l in recent years, the cost of r"'"'l'i'ing truiispiirtali'in, like the cost of iiliniist everytliing else, has rap¬ idly M.lvuiiced. This he illustrati'd hy sh'iwinu that if frelyhl and imssuiiger rates lui.I inrreased (liiiiiii; the past twenty \curs iu the sa-me pri'iinrtion as average inmnindity prices Ihe railroads of tbe rnit<>d States would have re¬ ceived .l;i,ChVI.(HK),o<K> niiire for trans¬ portation in l!il."i than they did n^eive.
This sjiving to the i)ulilic wus effect¬ ed, in spite of an increase <>f !t;i per cent in tlie cost of operul ion of trains, b.v a reduction in the uveruge passen¬ ger rate [ler mile from '_'.(i4 cents in fMli.'i to I.HIS cents in llM.'i. u decrease of .'! per f^nt, nnd by a reduction In the average freight rate iier ton mile from H..'!!) mills In i,S!)."> fo 7.'.i mills in Utl.'i, or 13 per cent. Durintt the same period the cost of operation per trtiln mile rose from Uli cents to $1.7H, almost doubling. .\t the same time tlie aver¬ age price of ;54»> commnditii'S enumer¬ ated In a bulletin of the 1 >eiiHitment of .\grlculture increas»>d 115 [ler cent. Transportution is i«rartiially the oul.y commodity in general use that hus not Increused tremendously In price during tbe past twenty years, freight and pas¬ senger charges being lower thau tliey wer&.tweFity years ugo.
Big Saving to Public.
If rates had ri.seii proportionutely to the incrense in the cost of other arti¬ cles of ordinary u.se. Mr. Kruttschnitt told the committee, the averuge jius- senger rate in 101,5 would huve l)(>en 2.!>."> cents a riiile, or .'>() per cent higher thnn it was, and the uveruge freight rute would have been l.'Jl cents, or "Ki per cent higher than it was. The sav¬ ing to the public in passenger fares through this difference wns $.'!I4.IM>P,- (KM) Hii'l in freight rates .$l.::40.(i<)0.(WH).
I'liiversul ruilroud buiikruiitcy under this reduction in rates und increased cost of operation, he said, was avoided onl.v by heavy ex'iH'ndilures to obtnin lncr<>use(l ellieiency in train ninvcnieiit. niuking it [lossihle to haul more Ions of freight [ler hx-oinotive. This buil re¬ duced the (iveraue cost <if huulitig a ton of freiirbt, Imt the decline in the average frei.^'hf rate had reduced the net revenue of the roiids from each ton h;iulcil. If the opcriilirig costs of the railroads, iiicluiling the prices of (-oal, labor nnd matcriul, continue to ad¬ vance lit the pri'seiit rate u lot of rail¬ roads wiil Ue in the haii'is of rei'eivers by litis unless some nlief is utl'orded, .Mr. Krutt; .Iinitt tuhl the committee.
"Owing to tbe rise of c'unnuMiit.v prices." he said, "tlic Vuriiinsiim power of the diilbir has fallen .""i.". per i-eut and the railrfiuds ure in the position of be¬ ing compelled hy luw to nci-ept iia.v- nii'iit for their servirc in tlie pnlilic In I urrency wrili I." 'cuts on the ilullar. Public's Chief Interest.
"The public's greatest interest Is in adeiiunte transpnitati'in facilities and nut so iiui' h in 1"W rates. .Vs to most . (imniiidities freight rates form a very smilli pro]M,rti'in of their .-ost. E\- eluding low grade conimodirles. lhe percentage of the freii:ht rute to the cost is so slight as to offer no jusiltii a- flon for any substantial increase In firiies to tbe lonsiimer. It muy be slated with little fear nf confradirtion that the cnnsumer seld'im, if ever, profits from a lowering of freight rules.
"Extertl'inate churces are a thing of the past, and under the attempt to cut rates to Iheir lowest possible llgure the Interest of the whole public in the character and standard of transporta¬ tion Is subordinated to the Interest of that part of the public only that profits oy lower rates—that Is to say, the ship pers and their agents and not the gen •val public, the ultimate coniumer''
