HIS FIND
By ROXANNE UEE
There was a rattle of a mowing ma
chine In a field of wheat. A girl stood
In the doorway of the cottage on the
hill and looked down on a young man
driving the machine. It was a* hot
day, one of the iTottest of the season.
The man, coming to a tree in the midst
of the| wheat, rested his sweating
horses and himself as well. The girl
too£ a tin cup, went to the spriag
house, filled the cup with buttermilk
and started down the hillside. Upon
approaching the man she said:
"It's so hot, Jim, that I thought I
would bring you a cool drink."
"It's mighty good of you to think of
ni£, Annie." And. taking the milk, he
drank it down, then continued: "Thla
is my last day of thia kind of work.
I'm going to the <ity tomorrow morn
ing to make my fortune."
"Got anything tc make it with, Jim?"
"Only strength and pluck."
"I'm afraid strength and pluck alone
won't go very far toward making a
fortune. I've heard m$' uncle, who
was a city man, say that the first
thing necessary to make money Is to
get money to make it with."
"Then I must begin by saving."
He had no right to spend his time
chatting, so he shook the reins over
the horses' backs as a signal for them
to go on with the work. Annie turned
away, asking what time of the day he
was going, aud he said, "On the 9
o'clock train." She bid him goodby
with a mist in her eyes and went back
to the farmhouse.
The next morning the young man,
Joshua Gibbs, left the house where he
was staying and struck a path loading
across lots to the station. Coming to
a stile, he saw lying at its foot with
one corner wedged In under the wood
which protected It from blowing away
wha^looked like a bank bill. -Stoop
ing, he picked It up and found that It
was what he had supposed It to be,
and the denomination was §20. He
looked about him for the person who
had dropped it, but no one was in
sight. He was puzzled to know what
to do with it While pondering he
heard a distant whistle of the coming
train. Having no more than time be
fore its arrival to reach the station, he
put the bill in his pocket and proceed
ed on his way. On reaching the city
he wrote the postmaster of the town
he had left of his find and said he was
ready to return*it on proof.
Joshua secured a place as porter In
a store, holding on to the bill for a
claimant who never turned up. One
day the owner of a newsstand died,
and his stand and stock were offered
for sale. Joshua gave the $20 for It
and entered upon the work connected
with it. He proved to bo a shrewd
business man, was polite and attentive
to his customers, and, having an hon
est way with Mm, rapidly built up
the business. He" added stationery
and gradually Increased the variety of
his stock until he was obllged'to take
a large store. The thoroughfare on
which he was 1 coated - became more
and more valuable. The result was
that within five years Joshua had
what he needed for his private ex
penses and was laying up money.
More than this, one of his customers,
taking a fancy to him, gave him in
formation as to certain Investments,
all of which brought him a good inter
est. and some of them Increased con
siderably In value.
When Joshua became prosperous he
bethought himself that, being a man
of business with no bachelor tastes, he
would better marry. He had no wom
an In view, his object being to have a
home. Thinking the matter over, he
happened to remember Annie Saun
ders, who had on a hot morning Ave or
six years before brought him that cup
of buttermilk. He remembered how
cool It had tasted and how pretty An
nie looked as she hande-. It to him.
Ttie city, girls' cheeks In comparison
with hers, made rosy by the country
air, looked very wan. He wondered 1?
she were still where he had left her.
Joshua kept Annie in mind till
one day he decided he would go and
see her. He did so and as soon as he
reached the place where sho lived
learned that she was still at the farm.
He started out to find her, his way
leading him across the stile where he
had found the twenty dollar bill that
had -been the basis of his prosperity.
Sitting there, he fell to musing on his
find, and, suddenly looking up, he saw
Annie coming along the path. He rose
to meet her, and she recognized him
at once.
Sitting together, Joshua told,her or
his finding the bfll, how he had writ
ten with a vliew to tracing Its owner
and how, finding no ojvner for it, he
had Invested It In a business that was
making him, If not rich, at lea^t well
to do. The morning was pleasant, the
birds were singing in the trees, and
there was a distant sound of a mowing
machine. Joshua could not be long
away from his business, and, assisted
toy the surroundings, he made short
sfirift of telling Annie what be had
come for. She didn't ask for time to
consider, but told 'him she had loved
him ever since he had been a farm
hand.
This was a surprise to him, but a
greater one was in store. She confess
ed that on the morning of his departure
fpr the city she had preceded him at
the stile and had placed there the bill
he had found—one which she had sav
ed for a new gowjt She asked him if
her uncle's theory that it takes money
to make money had not been proved.
