It Came Near Breaking
His Engagement
By SARAH G. BROWNE

Edwin Wheaton's ancestors bad al-
ways been rich .J, He was born and'
raised amid tbe comforts of wealth,
but was deprived of them by the ten-
derness of bis heart. Never was he
known to turn a deaf ear to any vap-
plication. reasonable of unreasonable
At tirsi when a friend applied to him
for a loan lie would write him a check
for the amount. Then when he could
not produce the cash he would indorse
the friend's note, which he was in-
variably called on to pay at maturity.
He canceled these obligations by the
sacrifice of bis property till it was all
gone; then his indorsements were uo
longer acceptable to bankers
Loans, private gifts to needy individ-
uals and charity subscriptions finally
reduced Mr. Wheaton's property to the
following articles—to wit: His ward-
robe. Including one threadbare dress
suit, one opera hat and one snuffbox
set with jewels that had come down to
tiim ithe line of succession from his
grandfather. These were his assets.
His liabilities were sundry small bills
due to tradesmen, most of which were
considered uncollectible and many of
which the creditors would never press
ou account of the orders they had till-
ed to their debtor when he was rich
and on which they had reaped large
profits.
.Mr. Wheaton's dress suit and opera
hat were the only articles necessary
to his maintaining the position in so-
ciety to which he had been born. The
lovable traits there were in him. re-en-
forced by an especially pleasant smile,
did the rest He was loved by many
young ladies, but aft except one felt
that their fortunes or expectations,
however great, needed strengthening
rather than weakening by marriage.
Miss Florence Twiss possessed a for-
"BRING IT TO ME." SHE CONCLUDED
tune in his own right and felt that
she would rather add to it tyr Edwin
Wheaton with bis dress suit, opera hat
and jeweled snuffbox than another
man with stocks and bonds and bouses
and lands
I will not positively assert that Mr.
Wheaton would have chosen Miss
Twiss in preference to the other yourig
ladies who were in love with him, for
his heart was plenty large enough to
take them all in. Their loves evapo-
rated in tears and sighs. That of Miss
Twiss materialized She gave him ev-
ery encouragement He returned her
love, differing from the loves he bore
the others in this—that his love for
Miss Twiss was not snuffed out as in
the other cases by her announcing her
engagement to some one else.
Mr. Wheaton was emboldened to
propose to Miss Twiss. She knew very
well his circumstances: but, yielding to
a natural desire In girls to bother their
lovers, she asked him as to bis proper-
ty s
"it's largely in notes," he replied.
"What kind of notes?"
"Loans such as those in which banks
Invest their funds."
•'With good security, I suppose?"
"First rate security."
"Bonds or real estate?"
"Neither. Tbey all bear the nam* of
an lndorser."
"Mention some of tbetn."
"Oh. that wouldn't be honorable, yon
know Tbey wouldn't like to have It
known that tbey are in tbe money
market for funds."
"1 understand. I wouldn't have^ou
give your friends away for the world,
although they hare made permanent
loans of yon I trust you have held
on to that jeweled snuffbox you set
so much store by "
"1 certainly have," he exclaimed,
with great pride in having preserved
one thing.
"Well." said Miss Twins. Til give
you an answer later When a girl
thinks of marrying a man with a heart
so big that property Is reduced to one
jeweled snuffbox, snuff taking being
out of fashion, she needs to think
hnird ."
"Then I may hope?"
"Yes. you may hope."
"And 1 "may have a kiss, tnayn't I?"
"One little bit of a one."
Wheaton took the kiss, and in this
respect it seemed that he was as good
at borrowing as he was at lending, for
be drew on the permission till the ac-
count was frightfully overdrawn.
Now, it bappeued that Mr. Wheaton
was sadly in need of shoes. Like most
people who do not know when, how
and why they are most attrkctive. he
deemed it essential to the success of
his suit with Miss Twiss that he
should keep up appearances. He did
not realize that his necessities were
his chief assets with the girl who
loved him. He went to a fashionable
bootmaker In the hope of being per-
mitted to enlarge his already sizable
account by an order for auother pair
of hoots. While he was endeavoring
to soften the man's heart he was hor-
ror stricken at peeing the object of
his love enter the shop.
Wheaton. seeing no way of retreat,
advanced toward Miss Twiss and
greeted her as heartily as If he were
really delighted to see her. She had
come in to order footwear and was
surprised to learn that Mr. Wheaton
had his boots made by her shoemaker
He turned the topic of conversation
to other matters and as soon as pos-
sible got away from Miss Twiss and
the shoemaker.
The latter conceived the idea of
turning this chance meeting In his
shop to account He saw In It a way
to collect his unpaid bill against
Wheaton. Knowing the young man's
idiosyncrades well, he sent*a woman
to him to solicit charity, directing her
to say that Miss Twiss s&nt her. Whea-
ton considered that all between him
and his love was at stake. It would
never do for him to refuse to give to
a solicitor who had been sent to him
by the lady he hoped to marry. Ask-
ing the lady to wait, he took his snuff-
box around the corner to a pawnshop,
borrowed $25 on it and gave the mon-
ey to tbe solicitor.
Miss Twiss had noticed Mr. Whea-
ton's embarrassment when she had
met htm at fi»e shoemaker's arid di
vined the cause. She thought the
matter over and sent a messenger to
the shop, greeting him to pay\ Mr.
Wheaton's bill and take a receipt.
The shoemaker, supposing tbe me*
senger to come from Wheaton. receipt-'
ed his bill, which amounted to $20.
and returned $5. with a note confes-
sing the stratagem by which he hud
collected the account.
Of course the note and the surplus
amount went to Miss Twiss She was
very much surprised and at the same
time amused She Inferred that the
Inst article possessed by her lover, the
snuffbox, had gone to pawnbrokers
She telephoned Mr Wheaton that nbt>
would like "him to call.
"N'ed," she said when he came. "I
have had a long struggle with myself
about accepting you. You have been
so improvident, or, rather, so tender
hearted, that everything yon had has
gone except your Jeweled snuffbox
My heart. I am sorry to say, has tri
umphed over my better Judgment I
will marry you. but. 1 am determined
that the one thing you possess shall
not be bestowed on some leach or for
charity or find its. wa> to the pawn
shop Bring it to me." she concluded
"Not tonight?" exclaimed Ned. both
delighted and in mortal dread.
"Yes, tonight You have not far
to go "
"But you know, it Is an heirloom
I must have time to consider the pro
prlety of parting with it. It has been
bequeathed to the eldest son of the
eldest sonrto go down in that line for
ever. Have I a right to give It to any
one?"
"That's the reason I wish It. I de
sire to make sure that It goes to your
eldest son."
"But"-
"No more 'buta,' please, but the
snuffbox. If you refuse me 1 shall
consider that you don't trust me; that
you love tbe box better than yon love
me."
"You know that I love you."
"Then prove It Oo and get the
box."
"But. sweetheart—darling—1 can't
get it before morning. Sensible of my
disposition to let things slip through
my Angers. I put It in a safe place."
Tfjje girl ttmlied. t
"It is in a safe." be added
"Who's safer <
"One who baa a deep interest in
me."
"An Interest of $25. Come. Ned. 1
know where your snuffbox ia. Yon
pawned it to get tbe money yon gave
the woman l sent yon to get a sub-
scription for the orphans' home."
Ned Iwed bis head.
"Why did you yield to her?"
"Consider the poor fatherless and
motherless children."
"Yon are very weak."
"T know it. How I ever Interested a
girl so superior to myself 1 can't con
ceive."
"If I marry you I fear you'll give
I way everything I possess "
"I don't see how I can do that aince
you possess it."
"Well. I'm in a very despondent state
of mind today about your pawning the
snuffbox Come and see me tomor-
row."
Ned borrowed a dozen or more kisses
and left her much relieved that the
affair had not Induced her to break
with him forever. He went from her
to the shoemaker who had Jeopardized
him and so represented the enormity
of his offense that the repentant man
gave him credit for another pair of
shoes.
Mr. and Mrs. Wheaton are married
and seem to get on very well. He
spoke truly when he said he would not
be able to give away what he didn't
possess.
