THE DREAMERS
B, VINCENT G. PERKY.
pnWOVOVWWWBWWOBOBBi
(<£). UM, by McClure Nawapaper Byndtcata.)
The dreamers sat aide by side on
a log, looking away out over the wa-
ters of the lake. The scene was
strangely peaceful—tiny, rippling
waves gently kissing the wet line of
the beach, made the only sound. Then
from out of the horizon rose a thin,
black line, a line that widened as the
minutes pussed, widened and swelled
Into smoke clouds. Fascinated, the
pair watched until the great lake
freighter, with Its belching smokestack,
was clearly outlined and gained mo-
nopoly of the scene. Nearer and
nearer came the freighter—a steady,
onward force that rode the mighty
waters with the air of a conqueror.
“Someday I am going to be like
that." The girl broke the silence. “I
nm going to spring up out of the back-
ground and swiftly take a place of
prominence In the world. Like that
steamer, I will travel on and on,
nothing will stop me, nothing can, un-
til I have achieved greatness.”
The boy smiled. He, too, bad
dreams.
"I will be like these waves,” he said.
"I will travel slowly, gently, surely.
I will go around the things In my way,
pass over or carry with me the small
things. I may be pushed back, like
the waves, but like them I will come
hack again. Always I will be reaching
out, out, out.”
It was many years later. Jack Tem-
ple, millionaire broker, left his of-
fice, his head heavy and aching. Big
business had meant always a headache
for Jack. Despite his remarkable
achievements and his world-wide fame
as the cleverest and coolest financier
on Wall street, he still faced every
battle nervously, still battled at a
tension; hut none save Jack knew
that—to Wall street he was a man
without nerves, a man with an Iron
constitution.
It was for men like Jack “the tired
business man” form of entertainment
was invented, but the "girlle-glrl”
shows had no attraction for him that
night.
"Anything but a musical show,” he
told his chauffeur, after he had given
up the thought of eating. “I don’t
cure where. Even melodrama would
be welcome tonight.”
So It was that the car drew up at
a small theater playing "The Bubble
Breakers." The mime could apply to
any show, hut the glaring lithographs
displayed In front of the theater pro-
claimed It melodrama without a doubt.
Jnek went In without flinching. He
smiled when his chnuffeur declined an
Invitation to accompany him—that In
Itself was sufficient guarantee that the
show was a poor one, hut Jnck was
there at bis own bidding, nnd he never
went back on himself.
The bouse was well Ailed. The
cheaper sen Is were all occupied, hut
some of the more expensive ones were
vacant. Jnck’s sent was near the front.
The curtain went up on the first act
before the millionaire hnd a chance to
study the types around him.
The scene was a beach. The water
In the background was n poor scenic
effect, hut the log and the pair seated
upon It looked natural enough. Then
nppeared at the head of the canvas a
black line. It wns some time before
the nudlence could grasp that It was
Intended for smoke, but when lights
appeared nnd the form of a poorly
painted hike freighter nttached Itself
to the thin smoke line the riddle was
solved.
Then the pair began to speak. The
girl spoke first. Her voice was low
nnd sweet; there was nothing of the
forced melodrama In her tone. She
was Just n child, barely fourteen, Jack
thought. Ills mind wns more on the
little actress than on the words she
was saying, hut when the hoy s|»okc he
realized that they were dreamers,
dreaming of the future. Such a fool-
ish, useless pastime It wns.
But Jack could not become bored by
the piny. The plot wns ragged, hut
the bright Utile notress protraylng the
child's part kept life enough In the
pluy to hold his Interest.
It was between the third nnd fourth
acts that Jack came to hts decision.
Ills life bad been such a lonely, bar-
ren sort of thing, why couldn’t he
do something worth v.'hlle now? he
asked himself. Here was his chsnce
to spend some of his millions on an-
other, hero wns his chance to give
this child-dreamer the means of realiz-
ing some of her dreams.
l.dnore Roselhy sank to the rhalr
before her dressing table and gave a
sigh of relief. The play was over,
and she was glad of It, for her part
was a hard one and she had ezerted
her every effort to portray It. Her
maid entered with a card. The srtresa
gave the card hut a fleeting glance.
Cards meant only one thing In her
Hftr stags Job no lee, and ecperleoce
had sickened her of that type long
ago.
“He was prosperous, rich looking,”
her maid whispered. “And he was
persistent.”
Lenore glanced up. It took almost
a minute before she connected the
maid’s comment with the card; then
she picked the small shiny bit of card-
board up once more.
“Jack Temple,” sbe read aloud, and
then as she turned tbe card over read
the penciled note on the back. “An
old middle-aged man who can per-
haps help you. An admirer wbo does
not want to make love to you.”
The text of the note was so unusual
Lenore gasped.
"Why,” she started; but a tap on
the door stopped her. Something
seemed to tell her that Mr. Temple
was waiting In the corridor. “Show
him In," sbe said suddenly.
Jack felt very much at home as he
found his way Into a chair opposite
Lenore.
“You must know that we do not
receive visitors In our dressing rooms,”
Ignore started In. “Even small show
actresses have pride, Mr. Temple."
"Well spoken, little girl,” Jack said
In his most fatherly tone. “I was sure
I should find you a modest little girl
like this. I have come to make a prop-
osition to you. I would like you to
leave this life—I would like to edu-
cate you—give you the chance the
modern girl craves for In social life.”
“Mr. Temple,” Lenore had risen to
her full height, and her head was held
high, “you must think. Indeed, that I
am Inexperienced to be so taken In by
such an Impossible offer. The thing
Is preposterous I”
"There I I guess I have gone the
wrong way about It. I am a foolish
old man," Jack muttered half to him-
self. “I am more at home on the
stock market than In a young girl's
dressing room.”
There was a genuine note In his
tone that Lenore recognized. “But
why should you make me such an offer
—you a stranger?” she asked In won-
der.
Like a father to a child, Jack started
In. It was an ordinary story of a
broken romance—a girl with big ambi-
tions and a man who wanted to stay
at home. The broken engagement—
the departure of the girl for tbe dtj
—his search tor her, which ended lit
bringing him to the whirl of the city's
business and eventually to the success
of his career.
“But In all these years I have never
even heard of her. Her ambitions
were great, her ability was of the
best, but somehow she didn’t realise
her hopes: while I, the man with the
small dreams, achieved undreamed-of
success and stand today a man big In
the affairs of the world, but, oh, so
smalKln the Joy of It I It was to try
to steal some of these Joys I wanted
to help you—that Is all,” he finished.
“And you thought I was a child I”
Lenore had risen and was quietly roll-
ing her curls high upon her head. The
baby stare hnd fled from her eyes,
nnd Jnck was facing a beautiful wom-
an In her thirties.
"Why, I had no Idea—I did not know
—I-” he stammered.
“You didn't know me, you don’t know
me now. Oh, Johnny Temple, can’t
you see it Is I—Just Betty Ross, the
little girl with the big dreams but
the small ability? Oh, Johnny! Some
day I hoped to find you again, find
you the same old plugger with the
same old-fashioned Ideas, and 1 was
going to tell you you were all right
and I was all wrong. I was going to
ask you to take me back, take me back
Into your love—those have been the
dreams that have kept me up these
last few years of failure, but now they
are only dreams."
“But they are not dreams. I ara
still plugging, still the old-fashioned,
bang-on, stlck-to-lt sort of cuss I was
in those days, thougb I am hanging-
on nnd sticking to It In a new world.
I may be a millionaire, I may be feared
by nil Wall street, but Inside I am Just
Johnny Temple, the kid with the big
heart nnd an empty feeling I want
some one to fill.”
And as these two sat aide by side In
the little dressing room In that third-
rate house they went back In fancy
to a log on the beach. From over a
lake they could see tiny rippling waves
and then from out of the horison
rose the masts of two ships. To-
gether they traveled the waters, on-
ward, onward, ever onward, side by.
side. It wns a pretty dream, and ad
the dreamers dreamed their hands
went together and very closely the
man drew the maid. Let’s leave them
there to dream.

BABOON PUT TO USEFUL TASK
A* Shepherds, the Animals Are Said
te Develop Traite That Are
Almost Human.
I have often wondered, remarks Mr.
W. C. Scully In the Atlantic Monthly,
why more baboons are not trained as
shepherds. The creatures Invariably
develop an absorbing affection for any
young animals, humnn or other, that
are placed In their charge, and there
la a well-authenticated Instance of a
baboon taking charge of a motherless
Kafir Infant, and guarding It night
and day for more than two years.
The almlnn foster i nrent performed
every necessary function except feed-
ing the child.
Several baboons have been trained
aa shepherds. In a case that Mr. Scul-
ly himself observed the baboon had
charge of several hundred sheep. He
became passionately attached to the
members of the flock, and remained
with them all day long at pasture and
brought them hack to the corral In
the evening. His only fnult ns shep-
herd waa the outcome of extreme so-
licitude; If he heard the voices of wild
baboons In the distance at any time
of the day, he would at once collect
the sheep, and with every appearance
of the liveliest terror hurry them
home.

ly usually marries a woman who

CHINESE HOLD HILL SACRED
Huang 8han Created a Shrine More
Than Three Hundred Years Ago,
Is Tradition.
More than 300 years ago In the Ming
dynasty a Buddhist priest named Pu
Men visited the Huang Shan In the
South Anhui hills. He was charmed
with the place and became infatuated
with the Idea of making It a sacred
mountain. A Journby to Peking and
an* audience with the royal household
resulted In the appropriation of large
sums of money for developing this
fairyland of the gods. A brass pagoda
was prepared for the first temple. It
wns decorated with 1.000 little Bud-
dhas and was called Thousand God pa-
goda. The temple, whose halls It
decked, was christened the Purple
Sand temple and Is now restored and
called the Merciful Light hall.
At that time, says the North China
Herald, hundreds of priests came to
the mountains, and there was a period
of Buddhist prosperity. Roads were
built to the tops of all the Important
peaks, and at least one temple was
erected far above the line of perennial
springs.
Foolproof.
“Henry, nn agent came to the house
this morning with a new kind of can-
opener to sell.”
“Well?”
“He said It wns foolproof.”
“Ah! Tbnt's pretty good. Any
brainless woman can use It, eh?”
"Perhaps. But the point he made
wns flint husbands who open enns for
their wives can do so without cutting
their fingers, spoiling the oilcloth on
the kitchen tnhle, spattering the walls
with gore nnd shocking the neighbors
with profanity.” — Birmingham Age-
