than travel. He laid an old-fashioned
reverence for women, but he began to
lie eonsi ions of an Involuntary tieresy
that Included the whole sex except bis
mother. Equipped by nature and train-
ing to shine in society, he had begun
I y running thejwhole gamut of its pos
sit iiltlcs and .aided by bclievitfc that
there was "nothing In it." His healthy
Imagination and romantic spirit were
dominated by Ills disciplined mind,
and, though he didn’t admit itgveti to
himself, he was coming to the belief
that the only satisfactory occupation
for a wise mnu yf vigor and ambition
is work. • He was coming to regard
ldmself so seriously that It became
quite impossible for him to think of
women without a smile of deprecation.
One iiy one he had put a hundred to
the test—ills test—and his well consul
civd verdict in each case had been
"There’s nothing to her."
lie had now spent a whole summer
in Clare, a quasi-fashionable resort in
tlie fruit region, and had catalogued
utid “double crossed" cv. r.v woman lie
had met there. Then, Just as he was
about to leave for the city he saw-
young woman who set him thinking.
She was brittle and beautiful without

that she had a I letter excuse for living
than lawn parties and cotillions.® #He
knew her name was PaiAlne, that le
was "in trade” and in trouble. *As he
stood tli i", watching tier she suddenly
gasped "My valise!" and ran to the end
of the platform. He was quickly be-
sulo licr. Iiis litit in hisliaud.
"I left my valise in the bus,” she
said. "Would you, could you-”
lie,tv as gun. • like a lackey, and in
two minutes she was taking the little
traveling bag from tiis liifnd. "Thank
you very much, Mr.-"
“Conkllng,” he said. * '
* “My money was In it. I don't know
how to thank you. Goodness, here
comes our train. Are you going-”
"Is this yours, too? I found it in th-

to the depot and took a train for Clare.
There he repeated iiis journey to Sha-

an invoice made ort to Miss Pauline
Davis, iu which the apples were billed
at $2.40.
I”m out just two hundred and
fifty,” he smiled to himself as he drove
back to town, "but slic'd never kipiw

And when he came back to her with
that apple bill and she had compli-
mented him on his "first buy,” she
added:
Why. Mr? Conkling. you ought to

ation of his salad days coining into his
eyes. At the corner sli ■ stopped to talk
to a brown-faced country woman, per-

gentle and penetrating as the luminous
eyes. He moped all afternoon, hut
took the bus for tlie 11 o'clock train.
Slie was in it, with Mrs. Krauss
when it called at the hotel. Conkling
sat in tit" far corner nml tried to see
her face In the half-light. Slie was
talking. "I just hate to leave without
those apples," slie was saying.
•'They're out at Shafer's place—seven

me an option unless I planked down

“Oh. no! I know liow quick that

And as they neared the depot Conk-

till she was out of sight. Then he-weut
to the hotel, count .1 his money and
am the night elerk*to cash a draft. In
fifteen minutes he was sitting In a
hired buggy driving through the night
to Shafer’s farmhouse, seven miles
away. He got there at midnight and
roused tlie Dutchman, who came to the
door with a light in one hand and
shotgun in the jilher, Conkling ex-
plained that lie had to leave town in

pies. The Dutchman chuckled. Tin

Hinted for tlie first time in iiis life. He
began to realize that there was a
ehauee for eloquence, wit and mental
activity even iu apple buying. He
“beat down” the farmer till the price
was agreed at $2.00, and congratulated
himself on having probably done bet-
ter than Miss Pauline or any woman
could have done.

Conkling was disappointed. He had
hoped to get Miss Pauline's name. Hut
lie paid $250 as an earnest, and told
the Dutchman to ship the apples to his

A writer in the Contemporary Re-
view discuses the growth of fraud.
He maintains ’that of late years
breaches of trust hjve been very nu,
merous in England. “Tlie n ‘wspnpers
have reported ease after case of fraud
I rof< ssional ngeftts and l>y
other persons, some of these rogues
being distinguished among men, and
notable for the assured effrontery of
their %uave utterances of the high* -t
principles of professional conduct.”
This proposition is supposed tc be
demonstrated by official records. Tlie
average yearly number of crimes, or*
indictable offences, reported to the
Jj England aud Wal
the period 1885-89 was SO,903, those
classed as l'raud> nuinbift'iug 1879.
During ttfe period 1890-94 the figures
were N1.S31 and 2008. Frouft 1895-99
they were 79,459 and 2599. Thus it
would seem that, while crime in gen-
eral was#niatonally decreasing, frauds
u**re rabidly multiplying. Otlici
crimes fell off fen per cent, iu number
in fifteen years,'"while frauds#increased
more than thirty-eight per cent.
