No ooo aaw her come to, and she went direct to her room aad after a haaty dinner worked anti! lata luto tha night on her book to make ap for lust time. The create of the afternoon caused her considerable uneasiness. She rriroacbed hereelf for her weak a aad for having yielded ee readily te the Impolite of the moment She Ud eald only what waa the troth when ehe admitted aha laved Jefferson, but what right had she to dispose of her future while her father's fata was Mill uncertain T Her troubled her, and when she came to reason It out calmly the more Impossible teamed their onion from every point of view. How could aha become tlae daughter-in-laof the man who had ruined her own father? The kies wee preposterous, and hard as the sacrifice would ho Jefferaon must le made to we It In that light. Their engagement was the greatest folly. It bound each of them when nothing but unhappiness could poaelbly come at It. Bhe wee sure new that she loved Jefferson. It would be hard to give him up, but there ere times and circumstances when duty aad principle must prevail over ell other eoneideretlone, and this ehe felt was ooe of them. IT h eoa-srten- rr - The following wurnlbg she received n letter from Bfntl. Ha waa delighted to bear the good news regarding her Important discovery, and he urged her to Inae no time In securing the letters end forwarding them to lJaaaapequa, when he would Immediately go to WaaUugtnn end ley them before the senate. Documentary evidence of that ronrlmdve nature, bn went on to nay, would prove of the very highest value la during iter father's name. lie added that Ibe Judge pnd her mother were aa well ha circumstances would permit and that they were not la the least worried about her protracted absence. Her Aunt Hilly had already returned to Europe, and Emlosln waa atfil ttnYfttrnlng te leave dally. Bhlrley needed no urglug, Bhe quits realised the Importance of acting quickly, but It waa not easy to get et the briers The library wan usually kept locked .vhon tba great men wee wny, end on the few occasions when acovM to U waa possible the lynx ryed Hr. Hanley waa always on guard. Phort aa lisd been her atsy la tbs Ryder household bhlrley already shared Jefferson' antlithy to the Euglleh secretory, whose manner grew more supercilious end overbearing aa he drew Hosier the date when be expected to run off with one of the richest catches of tlw season. Ue had not sought the acquutulauee of his employers biographer since her arrival end, with the einvptlon of a rude Mere, bad not deigned to notice her, vhlch attitude of haughty ludlfferenco waa all tho more remarkable In view of the fact that the Hon. Fltsroy usually left nothing unturned to cultivate a flirtatious intimacy with every attractive female he met. The truth waa that what with Mr. Ryder's demands upon hie oenicea and hia own preparations for hia coming matrimonial venture. In Which he bad ao much at stake, be had neither time nor Inclination to Indulge Lie customary amorous diversions. Mias Roberts had called at the house several times, oelenslhly to see Mrs. Ryder, end when introduced to Bhlrley eh bed eonilewentled to give the letter n auperrll lu nod. Her conversation was generally of the silly, vacn-on- e sort, concerning chiefly new dreoscs or bonnets, and Bhlrley at our read her character frivolous, amusement loving, empty beaded, Irresponalblo-Ju- st the kind of girl to do something foollxh without weighing the consequence. After chatting a few moment with Mrs. Ryder she would usually vsulidi. and one dny after one of these mysterious ram Bblrtts the library and ley happened to caught sllit id her and Mr. Bagley conversing lu subdued and eager tones. It waa very evident that tlie elojienieut scheme waa fast maturing, if the randal waa to he prevented, Jefferaon ought to see bla rather and acquaint him with the facts without delay. It was probable that at the same time be would make an effort to secure the Meantime she must be patient Too much hurry might spoil everything. Bo the day passed. Bhlrley devoting almost all her time to the history she bed undertaken. - Bhe saw nothing of Ryder senior, bnt a good deal of hia wife, to whom she toon became much attached. Blie found her an amiable, good natured woman, entirely free from that offensive arrogance and patronising condescension which twnelly mark the parvena an distinct from the thoroughbred. Mr. Ryder had no claims to distinguished lineage; on the contrary, ah wee the daughter of a country grocer when the then rising oil man married her, and of educational advantages she had bad little or none. It waa purely ty accident that she waa toe wife of the richest man la toe world, and. while she enjoyed the prestige her husband's prominence gave her, she never allowed It to turn her heed. She gave away large sums for charitable purposes sad, strange to say, whan to gift came direct from her toe money wee never returned on the plea that It was tainted. Bhe hared her husband's dislike for the life of ' let-te- there-fere- , bite her quiet aad see routful existence was aa welcome as auuahlue when it breaks through the clouds after day af glaum. Quits n friendship sprang up between the two women, and when tired of writing Bhlrley would go Into Mrs. Ryder's room and chat until the financier's wife began to look forward to those little Impromptu visits, so much she enjoyed them. Nothing muse had been said concerning Jefferaon and Mlaa Roberta Tba young man bad not yet seen bis father, bnt hie mother knew be was only watting an oppurraaity to demand an explanation of the engagement announce meets. ller husband, on the other bend,' desired the match more than ever, owing to the continued importunities of Benatur Roberta As stud Mrs. ftyder confided these little domestic troubles to Bhlrley. Jefferaon, aho said, io vary angry. Ue la determined not to qmy tba girl, and when be aad bla father do meet there'll be another ocene. What objection has your aoa to Mies Huberts? inquired Bhlrley innocently. Oh, the ntunl reason. algfced toe mother, and I've no doubt he known best He's Ja' love with another girl a Mien Roaamore. Oh. yes," answered Bhlrley simply. Mr. Ryder spoke of bq r. Mrs. Ryder wee silent, end presently she left the girl alone with her work. .. The next afternoon Bhlrley was in bar i. room busy writing when there came a tap at her door. Thinking It waa another visit from Mrs. Ryder, aha did not look up, bnt cried out pleasantly: Oume mr John Ryder enteredi He smiled cordially and,. as If aptdogialag for tha Intrusion, said amiably: I thought I'd ran ap to see bow yoi were gettlug atoug. Ills coming wm so unexpected that ibr a moment Bblrley wee startled, but she quickly regained her composure and naked bltu to take a aaat 11s seemed pleased to find her making such good progress, and he stopped to answer a number of questions ehe put to him. Bhlrley tried to be cordial, but when she looked well at him and noted the keen, bn wit like eyre, the cruel, vindictive lime aloiut the mouth, the square act, relentless Jaw Wall street had gone wrong with tba Colossus that day, aad be was still wearing bla war paint she recalled tba wrong tbla man bad dona her father, and she felt how bitterly aha bated blm.

When you die, people will count yonr millions, not your good deeds. Ue laughed cynically and drew up a chair near her desk. As a general thing, Juba Ryder never wasted words on women. lie had but a poor opinion of tbclr mentality and considered It beneath the dignity of any man to enter Into serious argument with n woman. In fact it was seldom be condescended to argue with any one. He gave orders and talked to people; be had no patience to t talked to. Yet he found hlinaelf listening with interest to this young woman wbo expressed herself no frankly, it waa a decided novelty for him to hear tbo truth. .

Una not the flag of aertaliam waved recently from the White House? Hu not a president of the United States declared that the state must eventually curb the great fortunes? Wbat Is that but socialism? True," retorted Ryder grimly, and that little speech intended for the benefit of the gallery will coat him the nomination at the next presidential election. We don't want In the White House a president wbo stir up close hatred. Our rich men bnv a right to what la their own. '.That la guaranteed them by the constitution." Is It tbelr own?

But retribution U at' hand. The growing discontent or the proletariat, the strikes and labor dispute of all kinds, the rlamor against the railroads and tha trust, the evidence of collosbm between both ell this la the writing on the wall. The capitalistic system Is doomed; socialism will succeed tt. What In social lam? he demanded What will It give the scornfully. public that It baa not got already T Bhlrley, who never neglected an opportunity to mako a convert, no matter bow hardened he might be, picked up a little pamphlet printed for propaganda purposes which aha had that morning received by mail. Hera, she Hid, is one of the best and clearest definitions of socialism I bare aver rend: Socialism Is common ownership of natnral resources and public utilities and tbo common operation of all Industries for the general good. Socialism la opposed to monopoly, that Is, to private ownership at land and tbe Instruments of labor, which la Indirect ownership of men; to tho wages system, by., which labor la legally robbed of a largo part of tbo product of labor; to competition with Its enormous waste of effort aad Its opportunities for tha spoliation of the weak by tha strong. Socialism Is Industrinl democracy. It Is the government of the people, by the yeople and for tha people, not In the present restricted sense, but as regards all the common Interests of men. Socialism la opposed to oligarchy and monarchy, aad therefore to the tyrannies of business clique and money kings. Socialism la for freedom, not only from the fear of force, but from tba fear of want. Socialism propose real liberty, not merely tlw right to vote, bnt tbe liberty to lire for somo-tnin- g more than meat and drink. Socialism Is righteonsacM la the relations of men. It la 'based on the fundamentals of religion, the Fatherhood of God and tbe brotherhood of men. It seeks through association and quality to realise fraternity. Socialism will d troy the motives which make for cheap manufacturers, poor Workmanship and adulterations; It will secure the reel utility of thliqn. leo, not exchange, will be tbe object of labor.
