The ends of these bands are finished in points and have black taffeta squares set in and three ack buttons on each point. had flooded the eyrie in which Henry Grimm had been content at the game of making money, and more money. He read the letter again.

Then he laid it down and leaned back in his chair. It was a womanly letter, but it carried a certain force of character in every third time Henry cation wrote to his gentle phrase. And reading it the nephew. He did not even dictate the letter to his secretary, but wrote it long-hand. Oddly enough, at the same hour, the very next morning, he found himself at the same task.

The answers to these letters came in her handwritIng, but they bubbled over with the boyish expressions of the patient to whom the mail hour was now the happiest of the day. Then the tenor of the letters changed. There were only daily reports from Miss Kent, setting forth the trifling variations of temperature and respirations. Young Stanton was wandering In the land of delirium. It was only natural that Miss Kent should write a few words of comfort to the now anxious man, and equally natural that he should watch for those daily crumbs of comfort.

but his secretary was amazed when the man of affairs suddenly announced that he was going South. Miss Kent had written that they had expected the crisis In 48 hours. Mr. Grimm leaned back in the chair of the parlor car and closed his eyes. "Of course, he will get well.

He's been first degree of measles. It is 00 foolish of keeping up this gait ever since his me to chase down there." Then he added, quite inconsequently, "I'll wager she's 45 and wears corkscrew curls." BUFFALO EVENING NEWS: MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1904. Monday, Sept. 12, 1904. Pligrimage.

(Copyright, 1904, by A. 8. Richardson.) Miss Kent stood In the hospital doorway and repented of her folly. Six months before she had resigned a position as under nurse in A New York hospital for that of superintendent or head nurse in a hospital in the heart of West Virginia's mining district. Her predecessor had left the staff well organized, and there was no special work to counteract the homesickness which naturally followed her a arrival.

The biggest ward in the hospital was given over to typhoid patients, and, in truth, they. overflowed this ward and took possession of three others. Nearly every new man at the pines yielded typhoid sooner or ater. It was part of the process of acclimation. The cases were rarely serious, the patients uniformly stolid.

The fever ran its course, the Grimm Coal and Coke Company the hospital charges and the patients as stolidly returned to the mines to have part of their wages deducted each month and applied on this hospital account. deadly monotony was getting on Marion Kent's nerves. At St. Paul's there had been no monotony. The operating room had been the workshop.

of some of the most marvelous surgeons in America. There had been fights for lives in which house doctors and nurses had Joined hands and faltered not, day or night. The surest cure for Miss. Kent's present mental condition work, activity patient who was at least interesting. She felt a wild inward and stir up the men, stolidly clination to go into the convalescent sleeping even before the night.

At this same moment she glanced down the road which led from the railway station and saw that the superintendent's special car, attached to the construction train engine, was slowing up by the water tank. A cot was carried out of the car. and four bearers brought out a limp figure swthed i in a blanket. Another typhoid patient no probably a little worse than ordinary or the special would not have been called into servIce. She was further surprised a few momente later to find herself greeting the superintendent of the mining company.

"I want you to give this case particular care. He is young Jack Stanton, nephew of Mr. Grimm, president of our company. It is the same old story of typhold, and, though I warned Mr. Grimm that it would come, I feel responsible for the boy.

Give him the best nurse you have and as much of your own time as you can spare." "You call him a boy?" said Miss Kent. "Yes, he is Only 18. Between ourselves, Grimm claims the youngster has made him a lot of trouble. He didn't like school, and so Grimm sent him down here to learn the coal and coke business from the beginning. You'll find him rather a decent sort of let anything happen to him.

Grimm patient, and for heaven's a sake don't seemed glad enough to ship the boy on to me, but just the same, I don't imagine he will be any too gentle with me If anything goes wrong." Ten minutes later Marion Kent was In the private ward in which young Stanton had been placed. He had just received a cooling sponge bath and he looked at her with eyes that shone with something besides fever. "My, but that felt good, and it is awfully Jolly, don't you know, to see a woman's face trifle and bent over her they patient. Miss Kent turned lamp a It seemed to her that she had never looked into such marvelous brown eyes--eyes that could twinkle and dance and hide the deepest and tenderest of feeling. She glanced from them to the boyish features.

Stanton lifted his hand weakly and felt of his chin. wanted 'em to give me a shave before they brought me down. I knew I would give you women an awful start. I look so like a tramp." Here was novelty with a vengeance -a patient who cared how he looked in the presence of the nurses. Miss Kent sat down beside him.

She felt somehow as if she ought to address him as a wilful boy. "You know this is sort of a low fever you have, and you'll get very tired of it, and of us-" "Not of you, you bet. Say, did you ever sleep on the hard side of a straw tick?" Miss Kent shook her head and continued her little moral lecture. "I just want you to realize that while you don't feel very sick, you're liable to be a good deal worse if you are not a good patient." "Oh, I'll be good, all right. You just watch me." And Miss Kent did watch him closely, more as a psychological study than as a patient.

Without asking questions, bit by bit she pieced together the history of his boyhood. She saw the business-like, uncompromising attitude of the uncle to whom the boy had been left as legacy by his dying mother. The wealthy bachelor had given freely of his money, but not of his sympathy. He had made no effort to understand the boy, to establish intimate relations with him. If teachers and tutors had said that the boy was lazy, or indifferent, he had accepted the criticism without question.

She was morally certain he had never looked Into those luminous brown eyes and read the truth. On the fifth day after he arrived at the hospital she received a letter: "Dear Madam: Mr. Grimm has recelved word that his nephew, John Stanton, Is confined in your hospital with typhold fever. He requests that you spare no expense, to make him comfortable, and to bring about his ultimate recovery. Kindly render a weekly statement to Mr.

Grimm and notify him Ir we can ship anything that will make John more comfortable, or that will expedite his recovery." The signature was the name of Mr. Grimm's secretary. Miss Kent laid down the letter and frowned at an engraving of Esculapius which hung over her desk. She could see the man business, in richly appointed office, turning from his telephone long enough to give the secretary some curt directions. She could also see and the memory of that sight brought a queer choking sensation in her throat- Jack Stanton's eager face each day when the mail was being distributed.

"Any line from the governor?" Marion Kent rave the mail to Another nurse to distribute, and then she sat down to her desk. It took her a long time to frame the letter she had decided to write. She wrote It in lead pencil, erasing and Interlining, and then copied It. She set the stamp upon the envelope with a triumphant upliftIng of her head. Something told her that this letter would make Henry Grimm, bachelor.

Eames. Their Club Papers. It was at Chautauqua one August afternoon, and a group of club women were discussing subjects for club papers. "Something instructive always appeals to me," one woman was saying. "We had such an interesting paper on the 'Growth of Our Postal Delivery' last winter.

The member who read it apologized for the fact that it stopped at the year 1850 by explaining that she had delayed finishing the paper until the week before, and then had had so many social engagements as to make it impossible for her to get to the library. It was most interesting as far 88 it went. Our club always discusses subjecta of deep Interest. Another paper we had was on the After It had been read a number of the members asked questions, but the woman who read the paper was unable to answer them, and at last frankly admitted that her husband wrote the paper, and that she really knew nothing about the subject. Wasn't It sweet of her to tell? Some of the members smiled, but the president got right up and said it was perfectly dear in our beloved member to be so honest, and she loved her for it.

Young Stanton had been carried out on the convalescents' porch. was waiting for his uncle, who had gone down to White Sulphur Spring for a week's stay. "I say, governor," he said, when Mr.

Grimm had finished his account his trip. "Don't you think we could fix it so that Miss Kent could have a little vacation? She looks awfully tired. I think we could fix it on the score that I need her to take care of me on the trip." Henry Grimm looked up at the mountains. They were calm and steadfastlike Marion Kent. He rose suddenly.

In reply to the query of "Anxious," printed some time ago our correspondents have rallied in force. Many Interesting letters have to be left out, because of their length.

In newspaper correspondence, if nowhere else, brevity i9 the soul of wit and the essence of commmon sense. Our Big Brother Man leads off in a letter which is a model in this respect: In reply to "Anxious," I say: "He that giveth to the poor lendeth to the Lord," and in this case the wife is the poor. She certainly has very little to do with, after rent, provisions and fuel have come out of $30 a month. How about possible sickness and the rainy days which most always come to most of us? TOM W. Another man does almost as well along the same line: In regard to "Anxlous," who is earning $1.35 a day and supporting three on such earnings, I beg to say that this tops the climax without his giving one-tenth of his earnings to the Lord.

People, as a rule, should have minds of their own, and not follow what the preacher or minister say's. If you feel that you can help along the Lord's work, give as much as you can, but don't insist upon working on a schedule pian, as it shows ignorance. Inasmuch as the above action shows lack of common sense, he is depriving his family of what is. at best, a poor support. T.

E. B. No. 3, being also of the more businesslike sex, wastes few words: Every man Is at liberty to dispose of his money as he sees fit. But how anyone can give one-tenth (or, for that matter, anything) to the have Lord is a mystery to me, since all we and are was given to us by Him, who, surely would not want anything back again, as though He had repented giving It.

God-fearing-or, better said, God-loving -men, practice sweet charity whenever an opportunity presents Itself. But since charity should begin at home, I cannot see how It can go any further in the case stated by J. T. Some Women's Opinions. I give the pith of an energetic woman's letter.

She has the courage of her convictions, Interfused by sisterly sympathy for the young man's wife: I do not think God expects one cent in money from a man earning $1.35 per day. He can give Instead of money a kind word, a helping hand whenever the opportunity presents itself, and, above all, kindness and help to his own dear ones. every case he earns their needs first. No man can pass them over and give onetenth and do his duty. May I further add that "Anxious," who has a right to feel anxious, should put down her foot firmly, now, at once, on such mistaken generosity? N.

S. No. 4, a woman and a sister, strikes the game key and, if possible, more strongly: I think It an outrage that a man with such a small salary having a wife and child should give one-tenth to the Lord. Anyway, the Lord doesn't get it, nor would He want it. The churches and minIsters profit by It.

think the best religion "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you, and we would need few churches If all practiced it. In my experience I have noticed that those who seem to have the most religion are the ones who are quickest In doing mean things, while those who have little religion are the most upright and better to their fellow-men. They do right because they think they ought to, and not because they expect a reward. L. R.

The other side of the question now claime our attention: If the young man spent 10 or 15 cents day for cigars or beer or other doubtthings for Christian men, probably THE PASSION FOR PIN MONEY. The dictionary defines pin money as pecuniary allowance made by a husband to. his wife for her personal use; specifically, money for her expense in dress; apparel money." The modern woman defines it as the money to purchase anything she craves, from the gaudy pearl necklace of the shop girl to the autocar of the woman of wealth. Nowadays most women are determined, by fair means, and sometimes, alas! by foul, to supply themselves with pin money. The mania Is at its height.

It stands in the way of all legitimate business. The woman who must support herself is constantly being cut under by the one who merely fancies a luxury. The needy city laboring girl is often defrauded by the woman living way back in the country. For example, the eye of the farmer's. wife is caught by advertisements like the following: "Any lady can easlly make $18 to $20 weekly!" "Only takes a few hours of your spare time!" "Three dollars a day sure!" "Big money in mail order business!" The madness seizes her.

Money, more money, and so easily made A silk dress (seldom to be worn), a high parlor lamp (never to be lighted), these luxuries rise before her mind's eye in exchange for the extra pin money. She sits down at once and writes for particulars. In reply to one she is informed that on payment of $43.20 she can secure 50 bottles of an All Cure medicine which she can readily dispose of at twice that price. Or, what is easier, and requires no such financlal outlay, another firm sends hooks to card, paying her one-half the money they would have to pay to the city girl. The pin money, therefore, goes to the farmer's wife, and the wage away from the bread winner.

In another circle of life, the woman, wanting to indulge some expensive fad which her husband cannot give her the money to do, secures a divorce of the ground of "failure to supply her with a competency." and goes into business for herself. Here she remains, sometimes six months. as the case may be, until she succeeds in fooling the second man who wants to marry her. And 50, through her primary desire for pin money, she has deliberately pushed herself into the rank and place of those who have none, to support them. What does the country girl of the West and New England do when tired of the monotony of village life? Allured by the enticing money-making columns of the magazines, does she not at once resolve upon a career? I refer now to the girl whose parents are both able and willing to maintain her, but who, because of some slight inconvenience or disagreement at home.

ingists upon leaving the family circle and being "in touch" with the excitements of city life. Do not such girls sit at the typewriters' desks in almost every office building in this city? And are not some of the women's journals, in a great measure, responsible for this spirit of unrest, when "How to make money" has become the burden of their song? And do not the girls and young men whose circumstances compel them to live in the city, suffer from this overwhelming competition? Over and over again the instances come to one's ears: "Oh, my sister is studying art in New York. and she wanted me to come on and take a flat with her. So I worked up stenography and I've got a position just to help pay expenses. We shall only be here two ALLEN'S FOOT-EASE For Tired, Aching, Smarting, Swollen Feet.
