I say, Tom," said one of a group ot young men, who bad been consulting with much chuckling and laughter, as they stood around a stove in the basement of a large wholesale house; "I soy, have you heard the news?" This question was addressed to Tom Marvin, who sauntered up to tfaegroup, and it was an inquiry put with special lutent in fact, a plot which Tom's friends, or his associates for the nonce Tom made a wide distinction between associates and friends had devised to conuus him. Tom's most peculiar trait was a singular frankness and undraped truthfulness about himself. I am sorry to say that Turn was known privately among his assocUtes as 'Cun- fesslon," sometimes shortened to "Fens though no one dared address bim to his face with the soubriquet. Tula name, as I have said, was gained by Tom's unusual and singular transparency about himself, lie seemed to Lave no reserves. A question would extort anything from him bluntly. provided It concerned only himself, lie was very far from that brutal unkindness which some persons call truthfulness or sincerity and pride themselves much there on, and which consists in saying disagree able things,' if true, no matter how the words or tacts wound or mortify. On the contrary, Tom was very kind and heed ful in that matter, and would cover as muth as he could any facts or state of mind la himself or I'tlicra which would hart an other's feelings or wound a pride. UjI in all that concerned himself a fact was a fact, and that was tho end of it. and the world might have It and welcome. Why should he be ashamed of a fact not shame ful? This was what ha had said on rare occasions when someone had expressed wonder or amusement at bis peculiarity, but with bis own heart it was unargued and unconscious. He simply was incapable of covering anything concerning himself or of caring whether It was known or un known or of thinking "what people would say." "No," said Tom, "I have heard no news. What is IU" "Why," said two or three ot Uie group, "JuliaElni Is engaged to be married." Tom started visibly, in spite or a certain sturdy fixity that belonged to hiai, and his associates exchanged sundry sly winks. res." said one young fellow, in sinuatingly, 'she is engagtd and I call It good news.

Tom had de clined all invitations and suggestions to Join in the excursions, picnics and such like gayctles of the other guests at the hotel and one evening Miss Elme asked him uhy he so seel ruled hlmnclf. "Because I have no money," said Tom. bluntly. Th,- young girl flu-bod painfully-. "Oh, "don't be troubled," said Tom, kind ly: "you have done no harm wilh your question. It does look a little odd that I keep so away from everything. But, you see, I l:ave Just enough money to pay my vacation of two weeks here and get back to I he city, with a margin imprecisely a quarter of a dollar. So I tan have no extras. "I think.

"Well," said the girl at last, somewhat amused. "I don't know why I should not answer you if I please, but I think I ought to know your motive in asking before I trust you with the InformaUon." Tom paled a little at the word "infor mation," but said again simply, yes. "Well," the girl said, wonderingly, after oaother long pause, "what is your motive? What has happened? Why do you wish to kno w?" "Becaosel myself want you,"sald Tom. Fearfully blunt, very Inelegant; but Tom. you know, was no diplomat, and at that moment every feeling and pulse In him wens Unnatural way awl tookihe shortest course without reflection or sense of proportion. After a little the surprised and moved girl said softly, but with not qui tea steady volco: "Then, why have you not told me bo fore?" ' "Because I nm poor." "That is not a good reason." "You are rich. The two facts togcthel make good reason." "I nm not rich. I have Just a small sub sistence, a bare independence." Any independence is riches." said Tom.

Then she wrote to Tom as follows- "My friend. I told yon I was not rich, which was true.

Tom's humility was not sure of the mean ins of thl dear epistle, but he lent no tuns In going to inquire and he was made very happy. A Talking; Canary.
