II. M. Johnston, In Spectator.
John Chalmers looked at Ills watch,
the watch his father had given hlni
the day he was 21.
"Eight-thirty," he muttered, and
closed the case with a sharp click.
He stared at his desk, at the papers
In confusion, at the overturned waste
basket nnd the litter on tho floor.
Then he went to the window and open
ed It.
The night was dark and the east
wind Mew noftly. The sky was
sprinkled with stars that seemed
strangely near. Far below the street
lamps trailed away In orderly rows.
The night wos oppressively quiet.
He turned backj A peculiar sound
caught his eiirs. It was a rapid click
ing that came from beyond the north
wall (Of the room.
"It's the girl at the typewriter,"
he muttered. "Those fellows don't
spare her. But she doesn't seem like
the complaining sort. I never saw her
when she wasn't looking bright and
cheerful. I wonder what she finds in
life?"
And because lie had found, very lit
tle In life, he kicked the wastebasket
viciously and flung himself into his
desk chair.
He was 31, a young man who had
Brown old in experience and had tired
of the game. His castles had gone
crumbling, his hopes were withered,
his faith in himself was wrecked. He
hod thrown up his hands in surren-
Anr.
Out of the little fortune he had won
by his shrewdness and daring, there
was a handful of dollars left. But he
didn't fear poverty. He had his
health, he had his hands, he was big
nnd strong and he had his quick brain.
There was no question about his
ability to keep the wolf from the.
door. But he couldn't bring himself
to the thought of working for a mas
ter, he had always been so free, so In
dependent. But no, he was tired of It all. He
had played his cards end lost. He was
down, he was humiliated, he was glad
to quit.
Kor two nights he hadn't slept, but
there was a long sleep ahead of him.
And the busy typewriter beyond the
north wall clicked on.
"I fancy I've been too much alone,"
he muttered and a little wave of self
pity ran through his mind. "If I had
married," he paused with a short
laugh. "That girl's . pleasant face is
making me sentimental. I wish
I had spoken to her this morn
lag when her skirt caught in
the elevator door. How prettily
ihe thanked me." He looked
around. "I'd like to leave her some
thing," he murmured. "What shall it
be? When a man Is making his will
he can't be too careful. I wonder If
she'd care for that paper weight? It
was cut from a mummy case In old
Egypt. It's thousands of years old, if
Battersby is right. I'll put it on her
door sill with my card. 'For the girl
with the cheery face.'" He laughed
again and then looked at his watch.
"Guess I've settled up everything,"
he said. "No man will be the poorer
for my going, and no man will be the
better If I stay." He arose and cross
ed to the window. "I've only to drop
from this." he slowly muttered.
"Twelve stories. No doubt I will be
dead before I reach the pavement,"
Ho peered down at the twinkling
lights far below. "Ever since I was a
boy great heights have fascinated me.
They seem to draw me with invisible
hands. I have had to clutch at some
thing to save myself from that fatal
lure. The Invisible hands will fret me
at last."
He paused and the typewrlttr click
ing was heard again.
"I'll put the puper weight ut her
door" he said, and turned and pUVod
Up the polished cube and started for
the door. He uvung !i open a.id
slipped into the hall. As he did Kp a
puff of gray smoke crime up the le
vator shaft.
"What's that?" he filed, and ran to
the Iron gates. A stronger p- ff MiuJe
him in the face. He drew bac k coupr,
lnif and gasping. For a moment he
heiJuted. Then he ran to the narrow
"Saved as by Fire"
stairway at the end of tbe hnll. The 1
smoke was puffing up there, too.
In a second he was back at the door
of the room adjoining his own. Ho
could hear the clicking typewriter
within. He rapped deliberately. The
clicking stopped. There was a mo
ment of hesitation. Then the door
was opened by the girl. She started
at sight of John Chalmers.
"I beg your pardon." he said, "for
filarmlng you, but I'm afraid the
building Is on flre."
"On fire!" she echoed. As If to con
firm his words a tresh puff of smoke
whirled through the elevator door.
The girl's face pn'cd.
"There Is no cause for Immedlato
alarm." said John quietly.
"What are we to do?" the girl
asked.
"We can do nothing but wait," he
answered. "The fire seems to have
Rallied some headway. We can't get
through that smoke on the stairs, and
the new lire escnpo has only reached
the sixth story. No doubt the firemen
are on their way and we will soon be
relieved."
She was watching his fac as he
spoke. Now she faintly smiled.
"I will put away some papers," she
said, "and get my Jacket."
He hurried to the elevator doors
ngaln, but the smoke drove him bnck.
He could see the white walls of the
shaft slowly reddening. As he re
treated his eyes caught sight of a coll
of rope on the floor In a corner. He
remembered why It was there. Just
the day before a steeplejack had paint
ed and glided the flagstaff on the tow
ering structure and the row was part
of his apparatus. John Chalmers
caught ui the coll and dragged it to
his room and flung It through the
door.
"Come," he said to the girl.
She quickly obeyed him.
"Well?" she said.
"Come into my room. It Is a llttlj
farther from the i-haft. 'this smoke
is getting unsuppertabie. We must
bar it out."
She fallowed hlin ;nto hip 100m and
he closed the door and pushed the win
dow a little higher.
"Hark," he said. The clang of bells
below could be heard. He leaned out.
"The apparatus Is coming from nil di
rections," he said. "Ah!"
There was a crash of glass and a
puff of smoke from a window several
stories below.
"What was it?" the girl called.
"The fire seems to be on the seventh
floor," he answered. "The heat Is
breaking the glass."
He went to the door and opened It
a little way. Then he closed it quick
ly and came back and leaned again
from the window.
"They are getting the ladders up,"
he said. "They are breaking In the
windows."
He spoke quietly as a mere specta
tor might speak. He must rot alarm
WITH A STEADY AVI) POWKRKUL PU1.I..
the girl. He rea'dzed that they were
penned in this tall tower like trapped
rats. Would help come? If bo, It
must come soon.
Suddenly the lights went out.
"That was to be expected," he said
calmly.
The room seemed very dark.
The girl came closer. The smoke
was getting dense.
"May I may I take your hand?"
she timidly asked.
"Why, yes," ho answered, and their
hands met in the darkness.
"You do not tremble," said the girl.
"Are you not afraid?"
"I am afraid of nothing save my
self," he murmured.
"I do not want to die," said the girl.
"There is my mother, you know. She
would be left quite alone."
The man ground his teeth. He
turned to the window, still holding
fast to the slender hand, and looked
down across the sill.
"They have run tip an extension lad
der," he said. "It's Just beneath us.
They don't dream there is anybody on
these upper floors." He leaned far out
and gave a hoarse shout. "Hi! below
thtre!" He paused. "A fireman on
the ladder is looking up. He sees me!
He Is pointing me out. They are shift
ing the searchlight. The crowd sees
me. Listen." A faint roar came from
the Ftreet. "The firemen are waving
their hats to me. They mean cour
age. Here," he suddenly turned to the
girl, "take my place for a moment
They must not think I haye sue
cunibed. Careful. Careful. Not too
rp.r. There, they see you. Another
hoarso roar came from the street
The girl, with the searchlight flaring
upon her, waved her hand to the
crowd below, and another deep roar
came up.
John Chalmers was drugglnr tlu
co l o' rope to the window. Then he
I'ropi td it on tiie floor and ran to the
desk. He drew a match from his
pocVct end. lir'iting It, snatched up
a sli'ct cf i- r and scribbled half a
do'. :i words. I!e fastened his me
khm "o the end of the rope with a
ru''. 'r bnrid and quickly paid out thn
co ! I ) watched It with an eager

Its way about the door. There vai

John caught up the rope again and
peered flown.
"They are coming w!th extra hose."
he cried. "There, there, they are
fastening the rope to It. Hurry, lads,
hurry. They are waving their hats
to nie. Yes, yea, I understand.
With a steady and powerful pull he.
drew In the rope. Hand over hand h.5
drew It In. And below the ladder the
firemen passed up the hose passed It
up with trained muscles, swiftly ard
steadily.
John did not waste Ms strength. Ho
knew that the weight would sorely
tax his bnck and arms. But he had
been the strong man of his clins at
collepe, nr.d he was glad to feel that
his muscles were gamely responding
to the s'raln. Heavier and heavier
grew the burden. He clenched hU
teeth and drew the rope foot by foot.
And as he labored he breathed a
thankful prayer that he had unwit
tingly prepared himself for the emer
gency, and that now he was meeting It
like a man.
His back was sorely cramped, h!a
arms ached in their sockets, a red mist
swam before his eyes, and then with
a final pull he brought the brass noz
zle within reaching distance and
clutched It and with a mighty effort
drew It across the sill, and so Into
the room. And from the street below
came another hoarse cry.
Coughing and half strangliiiR, for
the smoke was getting more and more
dense, John hauled In the hose until
It reached close to the closed door.
"Now," he cried to the girl, "lean from
the window and wave your arms to
the men below. Make them under
stand that you want the water. Make
them understand."
The girl obeyed.
John crept to the door and flung It
open. Then he threw himself on tho
hose with a stout grasp on the nozzle,
and his head close to the door, and
waited.
The hall was gray with smoke, and
flames were darting through the ele
vator Ironwork. Above the elevator
shaft the red tongues of fire were run
ning here and there. In a moment, It
seemed as if the whole Interior of
the hnllway might be filled with a
roaring flame.
"Do they understand?" he cried.
The girl heard him.
"Yes, yes, I think they do," she an
swered.
"Wave your arms again."
Thi girl leaned out.
"Do they answer?"
"They are shouting up to me. 1
can't hear what they are saying. They
are holding the hose tightly ngainst
the ladder. Yes, yes, the water Is
coming."
John put his body upon the hoso
and, lying prostrate, waited.
Then the hose suddenly stirred like
a living thing and the water gushed
from the nozzle. It was not a pow
erful stream the height was too great
but little by little the force In
creased, yet not enough to Imperil
John's firm grasp on the nozzle.
And now he was directing the heavy
flow through the open doorway against
the blazing woodwork. Round about
the hallway the torrent flew and scat
tered and scraped. With a mighty ef
fort John drew the hose forward a
llttlo farther and, elevating the nozzle.
swept away the flames that were creep
ing about the woodwork above the
shaft.
This was not done In a moment. The
fire was stubborn and let go Its hold
slowly.
The girl came close to John and
dropped on her knees beside him.
Somehow he felt her presence.
"Are you there?" he asked.
"Yes."
He drew a quick breath.
"You're fine," he said. "Not a
whimper, not a tear. I didn't suppose
there was such a girl."
"Do yen know why I have been so
brave?" Fhe asked. "It Is because you
are with me. You encouraged me, you
gave me strength, you gave me hope.
I didn't dare to be weait and foolish.
Yon were so cool, so qul"t, so strong.
What a power for good n nan like you
can be!"
There was a little silence, and the
steady stream swept about the hall
and drove a river of water down the
shaft.
"The danger Is quite over, I think,"
he presently oa!d. "No doubt the fire
men have conquered the fla.nes be
low." The girl still knelt beside him.
"I-I can't thank you for whatyou
have done," she said, with a sudden
break In her voice.
"Don't try," he interrupted. "You
don't owe me any thanks. If you
hadn't been here I wouldn't well, I
wouldn't have had any Incentive to
to do what I have done. You have
taught me a lesson perhaps I'll tell
you some time what It Is. There, that's
all the water we can put tp use ex
cept a little for our grimy faces. Will
you wave your arms again to the boys
below?"
The girl ran to the window and
looked down. A wild cheer greeted
her. She waved her arms and pres
ently the water was shut off
John arose from his cramped posi
tion ami stretched himself and walked
about a little. Then he splashed
through the water and raised the hall
windows and let out the smoke.
The ky lightened and the moon
!ird risen, and the upper floor wn no
'.uugei wrapped In gloom.
Jc.bn looked at his watch.
"Nine o clock," he said. "A pretty
lley twenty minutes."
i r,o)ie, said the girl, "that mv
mother will not worry. If she hears
about the fire It will greatly alarm
her. And If I am late she will be very
anxious."
John turned suddenly.
I m going to take you home," he
sa'd. "And If there are any explana
lioMi ;o make you can rely on me to
.nako them."
There was a heavj step on the stair
way. A fireman with a lantern arose
iroin tbe depths below.
Me raised his lantern above his head
n he tm forward.
"Oh. there you are!" he cried. Ho
'el the luntei n shine on the grimy and
bedraggled man and thrust out hi
hand.
How are you. brothurT" he Mid.
with a coarse laugh.
John laughed as he gripped the btg
hand.
"Fine." he answered. "But here, I
want you to know my asslstnnt fore
man." And tho fireman and the girl grave
ly shook hands.
"Cilad to know yon, ma'am." said
the big fireman. "There's nothing too
good In the department for either of
you." y looked at John admiringly.
"You're n bunch of muscles, all right,"
he said. "We didn't any of us believe
you'd get the hoso to the wlniw." He
turned nnd threw tho light about.
"You certainly saved the roof." he
cried. "But there, you'll want to go
clown now, no doubt. The flre was on
the seventh floor and up here. It
made a pretty clean sweep. But you
can get down to the sixth floor, all
right. You'll And the lights still burn
ing there, and you can wash up and
the elevator man will take you the rest
of the way. And you want to look out
when you reach the street there's a
crowd there ready to eat you up."
A few moments Inter they were on
'.he stairs.
"And to think," said the girl, a little
hysterically, "that a half hour ago you
and I were strangers and might never
have met."
"And might never have met," ho
gravely echoed.
"And row I seem to have known
you for such a long while. Life Is
very strange at times. Isn't It?"
"Yes," John replied.
"But It's worth living."
And she laughed lightly, and her
laugh wns ns pleasant as her pretty
voice.
John looked bnck at her, but she
could not see his face because the
stairway was dark.
"Yes." he said, "life Is worth liv

"I could have got rich long ago,"
said the Ice man, "only for just one
thing," according to the New York
Sun.
"You know what Sam Weller said
at the trial of Bardell against Pick
wick, when Sergt. Buzfus asked him
'Have you a pair of eyes, Mr. Weller?
Yes, I have a pair of eyes,' replied
Sam, 'and that's just it. If they wos
a pair o' patent double-million magni
fy In' gas microscopes of hextra power
perhaps I might be able to see through
a flight o' stairs and a deal door, but
beln' only eyes, you see, my wlslon's
limited.'
"I might say with Sam, 'And that's
just it." Now, If I had seventy-eight
pairs of arms and seventy-eight palr
of legs and seventy-eight horses and
wagons, why, then I might be able to
deliver Ice to everybody Just when
they wanted It, but as It Is K can't be
done.
"You see. they all want tholr lco
at the same hour, and when you como
to consider that I deliver Ice In
Umpty-ump street and Steenty-sti "th
street and various other streets cover
ing a considerable territory, with
many of my customers blocks apart,
you see that to deliver Ice to all ol
them at the same time would make It
up Into a tolerably difficult sort of
proposition, but that doesn't make any
difference to my customers. They all
want their Ice when they want It.
" 'Iceman.' the lady says to me down
the dumbwaiter shaft when I get
around to her house the best I can
do, at a quarter past 10, and I think
that's doing pretty well. 'Iceman,' she
says, 'I told you I wanted my lea at
8 o'clock.'
"Then I try to explain to her that
I'm doing the best 1 can to get It
to her at that hour, bat
" 'Well.' she snys, '1 want my Ice
at 8 o clock, and If you can't bring
it then I shall get another Iceman.'
"Very likely she does, and you see
if I lost all such customers and didn't
gain any, why, my Ice would melt In
the wagon and pretty soon I wouldn't
have any customers at all or next to
none because the number of customers
that a man can deliver lee to all at
the same time Is really very small.
"Of course It doesn't work out Just
that way. I lose this customer, but
then I gain another who Is dissatisfied
with her Iceman, and bo we keep along
with losses and galnb about even Just
keep along, but that's about all. If I
had a hundred pairs of arms and a
hundred pairs of legs and so on so
as I could deliver to a hundred cus
tomers nil at the same ti,rae, keeping
all my new customers and never los
ing an old customer, why, then I'd be
doing something, what? But being as
I have only one pair you see my de
livery power's limited.
