Time was when Nellie More enjoyed two distinctions above the other pretty girls who sold everything conceivable from the counters of the big store on Sixth avenue. The first of these distinctions was that of being the cleverest manipulator of the latest slang, The second was that of being Michael Maloney's “steady company. When Mike had arrived from the Emerald Isle and had been made a clerk In the branch of the Amalgamated Tea Stores company all on the same day he had been easily persuaded by some friends who had preceded him into the land of freedom to attend a dance of the Moonlight Athletic association in the evening. There Nellie had seen him and, seeing, had been— well, impressed. “Who’s the new harp?” she had asked with well disguised Interest whereupon she was duly presented to “Mr. Maloney, just over from Dub-
lin”
Perhaps It was the unconventional!ty of her conversation that attracted the young Irishman from the start Perhaps It was her fresh, young beauty. Perhaps it was the snap and go that marked all she sold and did. At all events. Mike and Nellie were “steadies” from that evening forth. In another sense Michael Maloney was ns steady a young man as ever became a citizen of New York, and when he was promoted to the position of manager in the branch store being his sweetheart became a real distinc-
tion for Nellie.
Rut shortly after Michael's promotion Nellie acquired a new distinction which entirely eclipsed one of her old ones and certainly went far toward finishing the other. It all began innocently enough. No one would have suspected the results when she borrowed one of her favorite author’s novels. There was no sign of danger until she had got well on toward the
end of the book.
In fact, at the middle of the second page the girl had banded the volume back to Its owner, with the comment. “I can’t dope out this talk." But the other had urged perseverance, assuring Nellie that she would get used to the “swell guy talk" of the story and that the tale itself was “somepun grand. And. sure enough, at page ‘J'-’ll Nellie was shedding real tears over the sorrows of the heroine. She nearly forgot to wait on customers, so absorbed had she become. The worst of It was that she had become fascinated with the “swell guy talk" Itself. At the end of tile book she began anew to study the lofty phrases of the empty conversa tions, for she had been converted the Idea that really nice people used that sort of language instead of the very lucid style of her past colloquies. She Instituted a process of self reformation. She suddenly forsook the dances of the Moonlight Athletes. She went to night school classes in English. She attended lectures ou English at the settlement house. Her progress in the improvement of her conversa tional style was a thing to delight the hearts of the fjettlement workers. In two weeks she had got so far that Instead of ^unurklng that It was “swell lay" she imparted to Mamie McDonnell that "the sun bids fair shed Ins illuminating rays unimpeded by nebular obstacles. Mamie promptly admonished her to ‘‘come off the roof.” One by one her old friends forsook her and left her to the society of a pocket dictionary and grammar—and more of her an thor. Her little brothers and sisters took to spending their evenings on the sidewalk beyond her correcting Influ
euee—ami palm.
Her father and mother openly sighed in relief when she sallied forth to tend her classes. But all these things only added zest to her earnestness by giving it a flavor of martyrdom. She had the makings of a real reformer. It was when she undertook to form Michael that she waded in the waters of real sacrifice to principle Michael did not yet know how to wield the east side slang, but he bad brogue that could be cut only with an ax. and that brogue was Incompatible with Nellie’s new ideas of the refine ment that must mark her future home. At first she explained her lofty ambitions to her lover. He assented rath-
er
words could have been. It showed her that in tier beautiful programme of home refinement, of polite conversation, of high thinking and speaking. Michael Maloney was incapable of tak
big a part.
Promptly she explained to him that she felt convinced that future years would find them happier for avoiding the error of continued friendship. The venture of matrimony would be perilous where dispositions were so widely at variance. She hoped that he would remember her as she would re member bin. etc. She had a good
deal of her author by heart.
Erom all o' which Michael gathered that he was being turned down. He walked away. Ids big shoulders stoop ed, his red locks drooped over his freckled face. And Nellie walked the other way. her back very straight, her “Merry Widow" hat very high over her eyes, which showed a strong suspicion of
moisture.
No more did she suggest to her mother that she needed exercise when she came home in time to hear one of the younger Mores being sent on an vr-
rnn.l to the tea store.
No more did she arrive at that emporium of close priced groceries Just at the hour of closing. No more did she walk the shaded bowers of Stuyvesant

INTEND TO FIGHT HARD TO-DAY 62 TO 0 IS RESULT OF C0NTES1
With three cripples on the squad but with a host of first-class sub material on the docket DePauw goes to Bloomington today to put up one of the hardest football battles the old gold has ever figured In. If the team
makes the showing that their prac-

manly arm, not for awhile. She spent
a still greater amount of her spare time at Hr* settlement house. Improving her English, for awhile. It was one Saturday afternoon l:i July that she sat In a front seat in the lecture h ill of the Institution for the improvement of herself and other Nellie Mores. A very famous authority had condescended to speak to the chll dren of the slums, and up to one remark Nellie sat very erect and tried to look wise and not wish she was down at Coney Island with Michael Maloney. After the making of that remark Nellie sat rather limp, looked toward the door and wished she were away almost any where. The great authority had stated distinctly that “the very best English spoken in the world Is that of Dublin. Ireland.” With tin* directness of tin* American girl under such < In aim tames, she made her w.a\ boldly to tin* ten store just at the time when the clerks had gone home and Mike was there finish ing up. She Invested in a can of corn. Then she asked Michael If he would accompany her home. \s soon as they were started she be- j gnu her apology. “Michael, It Is my desire to request your pardon for my own grievous errors as to your use of English. I have learned today for the first time that the inhabitants of the city of Dublin are the best examples of the correct usage of your‘mother tongue.” Is that so?” asked Michael, the hopeful look fading, then swiftly returning as he looked at her. “1 uiv\er gave much thought to the quis Hon. There Is another matther ns Is worritin’ me a lot more. Will ye marry me, Nellie More?" “Yes. Michael.” She still held out for the full name. It was somewhere near Fort Wadsworth that he pressed her little hand to his lips for the twentieth time ns they sat in a secluded corner of the Coney Island steamboat. It was about the same place that he ventured to risk the truth. “Nellie, me dnrlint, maybe ye won't be takin’ me afthcr all. Hut 01 cudden’t be lying to ye. Oi nlvver saw Dublin in all me life. Sure, Oi come from Cork." Nellie did not withdraw her hand. She gave the first real hearty laugh that had passed her lips in months. “Aw, quit yer kiddhi'.” she said gayly. ‘T’ve got troubles of my own thlnkin’ what a dub I've lieen. Why, Mike, I'd love you if you was a Dutch-
man.”
The Empty Chair. It was a sale of wild animals, and a handsome tiger had just been knocked down to the highest bidder, a stranger. The late owner of the circus sidled up to him. “Are you starting a show?” he asked “No,” was the answer. “Bought the tiger for some one, I s'pose?” “Yes, for myself.” The showman glanced reflectively at the tiger and then at its purchaser. "Now, young man,” he said, “you needn't take this tiger if you don’t want to. There are plenty here who will take it off your hands. Surely you don't want a brute like that?*’ “But I do.” said the young man quietly. “You see," he added by way of explanation, “my dear mother-ln-Inw lias lived with us for ten years A fortnight ago she left us forever,
work the outcome is apt to be a matter which the last whistle only will make final. Every man on the team will go into the game resolved to fight to the finish. “We’re going down to fight,” is all the coach would say regarding today’s contest but the way he has been working with his warriors during the last week is evidence that he is planning and giving the state school a lively round. Despite the accidents that have hindered his men at the last moment Captain Jackson does not seem to have lost confidence in the ability of the 1908 team. “We're going down to Bloomington this year to play foot ball,” said he last evening. “Last year we certainly played football hut it was after fifteen minutes of the game was over. This year we'll play football every minute.” Jackson is the latest addition to the list of crippled men and it is not known now whether the captain can he In battle or not. Dewey and Harmon with cracked ribs had been counted on ns standbys for Hie line and it is hoped they can yet fight in
today’s fray.

Wabash completely smothered Franklin yesterday at Crawfordsville The Little Giants succeeded in running up a total of G2 while Franklin was forced to defensive tactics and failed to score. It took Wabash but three minutes’ of play to shove Colbert across the goal line for the first touchdown. At the end of the first half Wabash had registered forty points.

One
Thousand, Three Hundred And Fifty Themes Weekly.
The department of Rhetoric is literally flooded by themes. One thousand, three hundred and fifty compositions averaging two hundred words each, reach the desks of the inatructors every week. In order to handle this vast number of papers, Prof. Barnes has been compelled to add Harvey Hartsock to the department’s force with the office of clerk, and to reduce the work to a mach ine-like system. Mr. Hartsock first receives the themes from the students, dividing them into various groups. They are then sent to the desks of Mrs. Williams, instructor, and Prof. Barnes. Here they are carefully looked over and then returned to the students in conference groups. In these meetings the work is discussed and questions cleared up. Then they are again returned to the instructor and placed on file. Such a routine requires certain long hours of work each day to see the work’s completion.
