That evening after young TSJlot had gone out with Judge Fitrra’s eldest daughter, his honor sat a long time in silent thought. For nearly three years Maxbq Eliot had been Jessamine’s humble worshiper, and Durrett, the self-confident valedictorian, had been her devoted admirer. Dtuxett was one whom one would naturally expect to d6 tilings, and Eliot _was a young man o f brilliant promise. The judge’s preference Inclined to the latter, but jhe or aujK other would have to “ make good” before he’d, give his little girl to Win. * . The judge sighed thankfully. Jessa­ mine -would always listen to “Father.” A little later wlien she shyly suggested that at the end o f Max’s first school yeaT in’ Marion <He*fl‘1jeen given the prlncipalship o f Marlon’s academy), there would be a wedding, the judge shook his head, t •’ A- year Is ,all' top. short little girl.

His was the first face that Jessamine recognised On the pier. For an instant her heart bounded and despltjj the Old- world wlsdom'she had gained, she had to fight a foolish impulse to lay her head on the shabby decency o f hts serge coat and tell him, among other things, that failure In business didn’t matter. Dpt Fulton- Newholdt, who for six months , had followed In their wake* was looking on and presently Eliot wns forced to step aside to make way for their other friends. v “ Strange that Maxou Eliot should have happened to be In New York the very dny that we landed,” , the judge remarked. S Jessamine Said nothing. She knew it hadn't “Just happened.” Max had traveled those 8d0 miles just for a Bight o f h er! Well; he’d had It, and she------.

Judge and Mrs. Farra prepared to give their daughter a very handsome wedding.. “Maxon EUot to be tried by the United Staten court for fraud In the Harper postoffleel” These words con­ fronted Jessamine on# day when she picked up the paper. “ Too bad a perfectly innocent fellow gets himself in a place to be technical­ ly guilty of -crime, and liable to the penitentiary,” her cousin, Will Payne, remarked, looking over her shoulder at her startled cry. “ I’ve hoard about i t Seem# a discharged clerk’s twisted some papers some way, so-the blame falls on the postmaster.” ■ “Max Eliot’s been adjudged guilty, and they’re going to send him to prison,-Jessy,” Payne told her a few days later, “ unless the president par­ dons hlm.’i Seems his friends are get* tthg up a petition.” , * Jessamine fiejLto her room, “A lady wishes you to call to seo her at once, sir,’.* a messenger boy said to Maxon EUot* two1 weeks afterward, when life was going, to his room at his, hotel, after a satisfactory Interview' with the nation’s chief executive, When he went |othe address given n figure In a blue, traveling suit ran across the room, and then Jessamine Farra was clinging to him, crying soft, ly, “ Oh, Max!—Max, dear!” “Why, Jessy-r-Jessy 1” Astonishment wrapped him. “What Vs the matter?” ’ “ Oh, Max, I want you!” sUe sobbed; “I want youl” Maxon's heart, racing with the wild happiness o f -her weight against it, ‘overcame him, and'in spite of himself, for an instant, his arms went about her and held her tight; then he remem­ bered. , • . - ‘.‘You are going to marry Governor Durrdtt, Jessy 1” . . “I'm not going to marry Walton Dttr- rett—unless—unless you don’t want me, Max I” - “But I—” poor Max stammered— “Pm a faihtre-jl’m disgraced—I’d be in prison but for tlio president’s kind­ ness I Surely, Jessy,, you- don’t under­ stand—*,* “I do J” she Interrupted.
