Dcnrlty; that money in itself,.by its

tur. ‘The American. millionaire has

dustry, tact, perseverance or “good
luck." He is fond, it may he, of re-
minding us all that it is so. He is a

“self made man." and recurs to the
time when he was a barefoot boy, or n
penuilcss youth, with some pride, as a
proof of how bright a man he is in hav-
ing changed by his own unaided powers
the early poverty for the present wealth.

Ho feels in his heart he has done a
noble work and that he deserves the
commendation of mankind for doingit.
He is liable to disappointment, as we
all know, and it iii-somewhat strange
that, shrewd as he is in mom-y matters,
he is so blind in others. For the rest of
the world is very busy, and has little
time to trouble itself about his success
or his failure. Neither can other people
see on exactly what grounds a man can
claim its applause only for hnviug taken
good care of his own interests.

The consideration given to him for
his money is given only to his face by
those who expect to get something by
it. The community would look complav
contly upon tho matter if a sudden re.
vulsion should set him to swooping the
streets tomorrow, would consider him,
indeed, quite as important in the IllSI
occupation as in that of raking hin
heaps higher. In other words, it is the
wealth itself that is important, if there
is any importance in the ease. The mm:
who owns it may be very unimportant.
In fact. if he is content to be merely it.c
owner, ho is sum to be so.

‘ The only way to create distinction
with wealth is by the use. What a man
does with what he has determines the
question of his obscurity. The world is
very just and forgets all but its bean
factors. Tho millionaire who uses Ill:
millions for his own benefit is liko thi
officeholder who uses his office for bi:
own benefit, or the man of genius who
exhausts his genius for his own selfish
ends. or, indeed, like any man who. en-
dowed with llll‘bsl, uses the trust for his
ottn (xclusivo use and behoof.

“Goodby.” she said and gave him her

The station mastsncame and gave
hora-“parting word, then two urthros
town loiterers. then the station master’s
wife, with a shawl over her hand and
picking her way through the puddles.
Last of all came a mark-the girl’s fa-
ther. one could lee—running rtifliy and
glancing back often at the lame and
cart standing forlorn outside the gate. ‘

“Goodby, Mary, on God be with ya,
my girl. ” He held her band for a nec~
and or two, and his lips kept moving,
while she answered bravely. “Yc‘ll
write from New York?”

"I will—nw—-at mica. ” .

"Do. Don't keep us," he said, then
stood back with the others and blinked'
at the driving rain. She pulled a hand-
kerchief from a battered brown hand-
bag and nervously wiped her'lips. ’

”Ah," called she, “yez all thought
you‘d see me cryiu. Ah, I tricked yez
rightly." .

"Ah, no," answered the porter. “We
know yo‘d be brave.” ,

“Aye, aye," assented the rest and
shifting their legs. “Aye, aye.”

“Away ye go!" shouted the guard.
The engine shriukcd. Mary shook out
her handkerchief and called goodby;
her friends waved their arms. She had
started for the United States.

“They thought I'd cry,” said she as
nhc sat back and fell to plucking at the
fingers of her woolen gloves. “They
thought I’d cry—och, 110." She was
brave, yet her lips were quivering, and
her eyes Were turned mournfully on the
fields and hedges and tho cottages, hero
and there shining white through the
gray drift of thcraiu. ”We‘ll soon be
at it,” she said presently. “Ah, Lord,
the day it is. An the state I’m in—ceh,
och!” She. stooped and wrung the wa-
ter from her bedraggled skirt. “An me
hair that tattered. Aw, it's shockin.
But I didn't cry," she said and flashed
her black eyes at me. “Och, no.
Whisht! We‘re gettin near it. Aw,
there it is. There they are. Goodby,
mother. Goodby, Patsey nu Johnny on
Lizzie. Goodby, all. ”

I stood up, and over her hat caught
a glimpse of the group gathered on the
street before the cottage—the mother in
hot nightcap, the children bare legged,
all waving their arms and caps and cry-
ing their farewells.

“Goodby,” cried Mary back through
the rain, "Ooh, goodby.”

That was the. lust of them she would
see, she said, as she sat down agnin~the
last, till the Lord knew when. She was
for the United States? asked some one.
Ah, she was; she could get work there;
she could do nothing at home. Sure. it
was better to go than to be a burden on
“will all. Ah, yes, she’d'been out he-
foro and had come home to settle. but

fast to her lips—well, things had turn—
ed out troublesome. She’d do better out

and her mother was poorly. Ab, and run:

"Aye, aye," the men went in chorus,
“they wnr;they war.” 'I'hcn looked
umurnfully at her red cheeks, and from
one to unotlier passed thuword that she
was a brave girl, no she was—a brave
girl, and (hid speed her, said they as
one by ono they went out clumsily at
Navnn station and left Mary and me
together.

It was a fair day at Navnn, therefore
did the train nettle itself by the plat-
form for a long rest.

“The guard mvbbe's gono to see the
fair," said Mary, and I laughed, stainp-
od vigorously (for it was cold) across
the carriage floor, wiped the window
and lou-kul out.

Donn tho further bank of the rail-
ivny, along a narrow path which had
started beyond the fields somewhere
near the Illiyne, was earning a little
prmwssion of six men, bearing a coffin
on a rough hurdle made of ash poles.
Tho men were ham headed; a single
bunch of Wild flowers lay atop the
streaming will"; there wero no mourn-
ers, nor anywhere rmld one see any
nigh of mrrnw or curiosity. They came
on down, the men Willi their pitiful
burden, crossed the truck, came to n
siding. slid the coflln into n fish van,
shut the door, pullul their soft felt
hols from their pockets. moppcd their
faces. then took shelter behind the van
and lit their pipe». Thorn wanted only
a bottlo to make. the serum complete,
and [was confldmtly watching for it,

who had trusted in his word and misp-

some golden memory linger about his ‘
heart? Not one. He was wooden m the o,
col-o. He would sit on there, tapping.
his boot and staring at his big heckled
hands, neither hurt nor sorry, but just
wondering that a girl could be such a . ,
fool. The train would stop, and, wilha '
nod and a flabby shake of the hand, he
would take himself out into the rain.
And good riddanee. ,

The train slowed. Mary's lips began
to quiver. The train stopped. I gather-
ed in my legs, so that the fellow might
pass without touching me. He raised
his head and looked out at the sky. ,

“Ah, I may as well g'wan to the
junction," ho drawled. “It’ll be all the
same. , One could do nothin such a day
anyhow." >

“Yis,” said Mary, not chesrlessly.
“Sure ye may as well. ” , v

We eat silent all the way to Droghe-
da, and there we parted—Mary. so it
was set down, to catch a train north,
James one back home and I to do my
Work in town. ,

Two hours afterward I met the two
in the rain swept streets,“ and in my
surprise stopped short before them.
Mary looked up and laughed. ,

“Ah," said she, ”I‘m here yit. That
train went without me." .

“Uh. " said I, “that's very bad. Why, ‘
the next won't be hero for hours. And.
you‘re drenched. But—hut”—- and I
looked at James as he stood slightly
flushed and dripping wet, blandly star-
ing across the street.

“Ah, yis." Mary answered. “James
missed his too. I‘m not goin at all. '
b’urc we’ve made it up." I put my
watch slowly back into my pocket and
nodded. “James has promised me,”sha
went. on, and her eyes fell, “an we’re
goiu to get mnrr'cd come harvest time,
an he'll try hard for a place wi’ the
marquis. An—an—God knows, our, I'm
not sorry, for me heart was sure at l‘av-
in home. ” '

They knew their own business best,
but there fell an awkward silence. so I
asked James concerning his prospects.
Did he see his way clearly? Ah, he did. ,
and began tappinghis boots. Sure there ,
was always a way if one could only
wait till it chino. “Isn't she battenhore
anyway, whatever comes, " said he and
gave me a moment's glimpse at his face,
“than out yonder wid the strangers?
Sure ‘twua madness av her to think or
it. Sure Providence sent me to Nevin

“And you, Mary," I asked, “are you ‘ - .
