Steve und hla wife had talked It over for a lotiK time before the legacy ar¬ rived so unexpt'ctedly from hi.s uiidt) Harry. It wan only for ^'jOO, but It clinched Hteve'.s rt-Ktiluilon.
An uiK-ducatetl man, leavliiK the pri¬ mary school ut twelve to ¦worjc for hiti mother's Hupliort, Stt-ve was at heart a gentleman. But a nian'.s heart counts for very little aguinst a niHii's man¬ ners. And Sieve wh.-h—not rough, for he was altogtaher (int;ne.ss It.telf—but Ill-bred. Ue would not pa.ss muster except among the laboring class.
Netta WHS sonielhing higher. She had worked In a (lepartinent store, where .Steve was fine of the packers. Ue hnd come to know her hy knock¬ ing down a iiiii,-<lier who was pester¬ ing the girl with his attentions. And Netta, struck by the kindness of the- man, griidinilly caine to care for him. And they had heen married thn-.' years. There wt-re two habit-s, a girl and n boy. And Steve was still pack¬ ing case, at ^l.") a week.
They had talked over their own antl their children's future so many times And the sume bhink wall strelehed he¬ fore tlicin. There was no fulure. Al¬ ready every iieiiny of th.-ir lilil.- earn¬ ings went we.-k by wt-ek. Then came tlie legacy.
"There's no chance for an unedu¬ cated iiiiin like nil-," Sl(-ve said. "Tho only way for ine to muke mont-y Is tu find It."
"To find il, dear?" a,-<k(-(l Nt-lla. "In Ihc KrniiiKl." Siiid Sl(-V(-. "I'm go¬ ing lo Aliiskii. And, .Nella, (i(-!ir(-sl—" "Oh, Stt^v.-, I can't havi,- you g(j," she Bobbed.
"It's for lilllc Kllen und Tom," he nnswere.l. "We've g.it to make the sacrifice, Netta."
Slit! hrniight h(>rs(-lf to his view- IKillit. I'nr the siiki- of the liiihi(-s, to give them the adviiiitiigos which their father had never hnd, Steve must go, llo set two yt-ars as the limit of hl.-j absence, He took ii hiiii(lr(-('. dollars and left Netia with four himdred. That would last her forly weeks, with great economy. And hmg hefnri? thai pe¬ riod had elujiscd .Sieve would send her eoine more.
.So he promised, and so he per¬ formed. At the (-11(1 of six niiiiiUis Steve was making his tifty wi-ekly InAlnska. lie was working in a store, b'lt he wrote that he was keeping his eye oiien . for oppnrliiiiitiet, mid at the end of
At Last He Settled Down Grimly to Making His Pile.
the yenr he meant to go out prosiicct- Ing. He Inclosed for Netta two liun- drt-d dollars.
Thereafter .-^lie got twenty-live week¬ ly. She little guessed the cheapness of money In Alaska, or what Sieve was denying himself. And gradually slu? settled down to accuslnm herself lo his ahsence. Steve wrote that he was going Into the hitcritir, and sho might not hear from him for a while, but he was not going into any dan¬ ger, und she wus not to worry.
A lettt^r cnme two months later. In¬ closing five hundred, aud announcing thnt Steve had struck a rich claim. Netta wrote out of the joy of her heart, and he answered much later. That was Ihe last letter Steve received from Netta.
As the inon.ths slipped by and none of Steve's letters wi-re answered Ik- becnme despt rute. At lust he settled down grimly to muklng his jiile. He trusted Netta, and he hellevt-d that, If she were (h-ad, somt-hody would have written. He did make intpilries about her. bnt people do not trouble to inter¬ est theniselvt\s tin behalf of lli().*5e who are distant, und nobody answi-red him.
When the two years were ended Steve saw a fortune within his grasp if he remained a third year. He re¬ mained a third, and at the end of that time It was a case of a cool million If he remained a'fourth. So he stayed a fourth, and then buslne.s went to the dog«, and it meant a flftb year.
4t th« end of tbe flfth Steve sold oat
for three millions and a half and went htime.
He had hud little hopes nf finding .\ettu iu the flat they hud occupied. and so he wus spared that dl-iuppoint- ment. But the old Indy who came to the door run after Steve as he turned away.
"Are you Mr. Stephen Jack.son?" she asked.
"Steve Jackson—yes' ma'uin," Bald Steve.
"I cun tell you where your wife is," she snid. "She coiiit-s here every three months to tell me that if you ever come hack here she hus the house at 124 Chestnut street."
Steve almost whooped with gladness, but he only thaiil.t-d her und hurried away. .\nd in an hour's time he wiiy In Ihe suhnrhan district, and had ftiund i'M.
It wns a trim liltle ctittnge, c-overej with a flowering vine, and Steve sud¬ denly found himself loo shy to entt-r. And U.S he hung oulside the door, in ar» Hgony of iifiiir('h('n>;ion und Joy. two children entered the gate of tl.e liltle garden.
They were Ellen und Tom. Steve knew his own unywhere. And ihey were dress.-.l us he had never hoped lo dress his children.
"Where ure you going?" asked the man ut tlie gale.
"We're ctimlng from school," an- sw(-red lhe liltle Imy.
"V.iil are Tom .Ia.-k,>;nn, nren't you?" "Ves. This is Kll.-n." "And dn(-s your nioiher live here?" "Ves, sir." "-\ii(l your father?" "I-'ather's away, but he's coming hniiie Soon," .-aid lhe little girl. ¦'.Miiiiany jiriiys for hiin to cniue every night. And we pray, too."
Sieve Innk.-d at lhe li.iuse and at the (liil.lreii. Tli.-,>e wer.; his— everyiliiiig wus us he hud (lured to dream tliat it would ht-; anil yet now ho was ai'raid. Ile was ul'raid that he, a comni.ii*iiitin. wiuild bring his ctim- iii.iiiiie,-;s into tli(-ir liv(-s. He had heen away so long—why should he ever re¬ turn?
Ill that iiioiiient, for the first time. In spilt! of what his child had siii.l, he had a dnuht nf Nella. He wniiden-d wlieili(-r she had sioiiped wriiiiig In him lii-i-;iu.--i- of liiis, lieeause he Would drag her and her children doun.
And he turned iiii,s(-ralily away. 1I(> would go som.-where to lliiiik it all over.
He wt-nt down the sunny str.-.-t, slinking like a whippt-d dog. Why hud he not spent those five years in educating himself, to make himself worihy of his wife and children? "Steve!"
It was Netta. She wus standing be¬ fore him, und she threw herself into Ills arms. "Steve! It is ynu, dear¬ est :"
"Netta !" The niun's doubts dis¬ solved ut the sight of her riidiant face. "Steve, my dear, how I have longed for you! I lia\(- been working as u ' sten.igrapher, and the hahies—you ' must s.-e our biiliii-s—why didn't you write, Steve?"
When she grew more coherent ex- plunalions followed. Stevt^'s letters had not been received—perhaps the mall was In-^i. Nella had not known w lii-re lo will.- him ; all trace of hiin liad been Ins! wli.-n he w(-iit into the iiiu-rin'r'. And tho let lers he had sent to her address had not ii.-.-n forwurd- e(J, Many l(,-nant.s hati come and gopc lii-fnre tiie iild lady whom Sieve had seen, and the post ollice does uot al¬ ways r.'iiieiiil-.-r.
"Why wt-ro you going away from the house, Stevi-?" iisk.-d N.-Ita.
"I wus ashamed," he hurst out. "I saw our bullies, Ni-iia, and I thought —(led forglvt- me—an iin.-iluciited man likt- ine would drag th.-m down—"
"Jim, dear," said .\t-ttn, "it is better to be a good mun than a It-arncd one. ' But please (lod you are going to be liolh, Jim, hecaiist- I um milking good inoiH-y, and you und I can live as we want In live, and study together—" Then he told h.-r iib.nit the fortune.

Firelight Photographs. It Is worth noting that the most 8UC- ci-ssl'iil tin-light pliotogrnphs do not show the Hre ut nil. The suhject is ar¬ ranged so that the fire Is screen.-d in .some way frtim the lens. The mentiil- plece, fire-irons, rug, etc., are Included, however, and the fire itself Is suggest¬ ed by the lighting. On the whole this is the best wiiy of doing whnt we wunt. If we iirrunge things on these lines, with the Illumination proceeding from the spot where the fire is sup¬ posed to be. we cntt get n true fire¬ light effect, nlihoiigh the llgiit actu¬ ally used mny be ele.-trie, iniignesluiii, Hush or ribbon, or even duylight it- .self. In the last cnse, the bottom foot of glass In a French window may be used, with a sheet of white paper on the floor to serve as a reflector, and the whole of the rest blocked up. A figure posed ngninst this will give a very successful firelight effect.
No .Better Food Than Milk. Milk is un aniiiia! food. In nature Its ust- is uiiivi-rsal as I'.iod I'or the grow¬ ing y.iiliig.
