of the lot It was idea that good looks form ed the basis of Renography and type writing His father didnt agree with him hut he did not wish to introduce any argument into the partnership that might strain the yomg mans Win So Miss Mills appeared on a- certain Monday morning and began her work Although he was the junior partner Dick determined at once to prove to her that he nottonly acknowledged her right to live but that he was rather glad she was alive That afternoon the Son of ilioun- Son dictated two letters- and spent the rest of the time In patron izing his stenographer He asked many questions and related some of his adventures It was thus that he sought to con vey the Idea that stenography while looked at in a business way by some had a social side to his mind When noon came he fell that he had made matters so pleasant that he de cided to ask Miss Mills to lunch with him She looked at him sedately in eyes and refused him There had an expression in her face for a moment however ni if she intended to give notice and resign her place on the spot But evidently her glance at Dicks frank honest face overcame this if she had It The Junior partner was astonished To do him justice he Was not indig nant he was piqued The setback made him assume more dignity in the afternoon and if he was not of it Miss Mills was It was two days before the invitation was repeated and as promptly refused and he observed Of course not it you dont wish to hut I must confess that I cant make you out I am here stenographer and typewriter am I not she asked Certainly And have you any full to find with my work thus far Not a bit but you see you Invited you to lunch And I preferred to go by That was another setback for Dick and it naturally set to studying tile problem He was not accustomed to being refused anything by any body It was a real relief to him when finally that the girl stood In awe of because he was the junior partner of the house It seemed to him only kind that ho should disslnate that At the end of another week he made It bis business to overtake her on the street as she was going gome Bow ing with the utmost respect he said Miss Mills a friend of mine who was going to the theater tonight with his wife has been disappointed and has given the tickets Would nt you like to accompany me f I have another engagement she replied blushing both because it was because he knew It was false Oh ah I see Its a great piny I thank you Just the same That was another surprise for Mr Dick he didnt turn on heel wlUi the mental threat to discharge the uppy stenographer In the morning She was a new kind of girl to him but he was playing fair He would have wagered to that she Would jump at the chance and why she didnt lump puzzled him He could together and looked very If yoii think she is trying to get a hold on you youd better- dis charge her- Oh see here dad said Dick promptly I know that she isnt anything of that kind but I cant make her out- She wont go to the theatre with or accept any other favors You shouldnt have asked her- Dick said Mr sternly At the same time I must fia that she most singular young woman most singular Im afraid that she Is altogether too attractive to S dad said Mr Son promptly thats not fair to her I simply wanted to make her feel comfortable because because well hang it not because shes so con foundedly good looking as she is but because shes a mighty girl Sonic junior partners might have given it up but Dick wouldnt He felt that he had thrown down and humiliated and he wanted know why He had sunk his dignity to he patronizing and he had been rebuffed lie had broken a tradition of the house in seeking to increase a newcomers salary and received no thanks for it So one evening lie presented himself at Miss Mills boarding house and ask ed for her He was received in the parlor and Miss Mills came down with no other idea than that he had come with bad news He hemmed and hawed for a time and then drew a long deep breath and began Mills would do any good to ask you to go to the theatre with me some toward the last of the week Im afraid not she answered try to get a hold on me hilt she has one

people there that know you Who am I Your stenographer What would they think and say perhaps nothing to Injure you socially but how about me Miss Mills said Dick getting up and preparing to go I see
