TRUE GOLD LADY
By MOLLIE MATHER.
(©, 1921. Western Newspaper union,;
No one would have accused John
Towers of harboring romantic dreams,
yet, half-unconselously, at the back of
his well ordered bachelor life was
kopt a daintily colored picture of
a glorified being who should one day
become his wife—one day. for the
attainment seemed ever further off.
John's measure of success In business
had not fulfilled boyish promise,
though the village bank had grown to
reullty through his tireless and sys
tematic effort.
The bank had been but part of •
store when John began as Its am- I
hit Ions cashier. Now he was presl
dent and owner and the small white
pillared building, the tlnest on Main
street. John Towers' home was also
capably managed, with meals always
Just on time, and regular cleaning and
baking days never varied.
His elderly sister followed John's
ways of prudence and matter-of-fuet
ness. And If she had vlsloned for her
brother a wife It was some sensible ,
and efficient creature who would con- j
tlnne sufficiently the dally routine, I
Could she have seen her brother's j
dream picture she would have been
astonished and alarmed. As resident I
young women and visitors coming ;
from far and near failed as time ,
passed to amuse John's serious Inter
est, his sister settled down assured of |
her continued comfortable reign. And
then John taw the White and Gold '
lady. That Is the name his heart In
stantly gave h^r as he walked Idly one
Sunday morning to the farthest end
of the lane. "Lovers I,ane," the young ;
folk called It, but until John came j
walking back again later by the White
and Gold lady's side he hud never ap
preciated the meaning of the name.
She was sitting on a bench built round
the old park tree when he first found
her. Her dress was white and her hair
was gold and she held some marigolds .
In her white fingers.
"If you please." askea me »nuc
and Gold lady, with a smile that was
golden too. "could you tell me tlie way
to Willow Lawn house? I'm a visitor
tliere and started for the woods and I
nin't set hack: the turns are so very
confusing."
John Towers drew a happy breath
of anticipation.
"I w ill he delighted to show you the
way." he offered, and that was the be
ginning of the end. A small-town
hanker seemed not a desirable hus
band to the father of the White and
Go'd lady. And he told her so with
nn emphasis which hurried her Into
marriage. For l.lly had to make h>r
choice between father and lover anil
she made It Inevitably, trustfully—
while the old capitalist withdrew in
Injured pride to his creat home.
So for a time did routine and order.
But Lily, the dainty, bent to cook and
menu, with the same Intensity that
had carried her through mttslc and
study; and if household tasks were
not always accomplished John Tow
ers, coming broodingly from his bank,
found uwaitliur hint deliclously cooked
meals that tempted hi* flacclnc appe
tite.
Things were not going well with the
hank on the village street and John
wondered and wondered—about the
White ami fiold lady.
Then the hank failed. The circum
stances were unforeseen and unavoid
able. yet he blamed himself. And
when he could no longer hear the
pathos of I.lly's patient face, tie bade
her go away some place for a visit
Obediently his wife went. If he
hml expected her to demur he did not

George Ratley and his son Earl
Rat Icy, of Taso Robles, Cal., regls
trerd at the Golden North hotel last
night, having come up river from
Tanana and on to Skagwajr over the
White Pass, thus completing the
grand tour of Alaska. Messrs. Rat
ley brought up a large bunch of cat
tle for the consumption of the A'as
ka Railway commission, and after
delivering the shipment at Rroad
Pass, decided to "See Alaska" rather
than return via the outside passage.
They will sail for the south on the
next steamer.
John Moo. former special preven
tive officer for the supression of the
liquor traffic in the Fairbanks dis
trict, was an arrival out on last
night's train, and is registered at the
Golden North, while awaiting the
sailing of the Estebeth for Juneau
Prom Junenn Mr. Moe will continue
on to Seattle, and from there go to
Minneapolis for a short visit, after
which he will return to the coast
and spend the winter In l.os Angeles
After a few months it is Mr. Moe's
intention to take a steamer through
the Panama Canal and make the
trip back to his old home in Nonvny
after an absence of nearly for-»
three years. He will return to Alas
ka in time for the ne\t election. V*
asserts.
J. H. Miller and wife were arriv
als last night, having come In on
the evening train from Fairbanks.
Mr Miller has lieen chief office de
puty under I'nited States Marshal
Erwin and is now on his way to the
states for a trip, the length of which
will be determined on whether or
not the new appointment Is confirm
ed by the Senate In case the ap
pointment is confirmed. Mr. and Mrs
Miller will motor to San Diego,
where they will spend the winter.
They will return north in the spring.

was giving.
The yellow-shaded randies shone on
her yellow-gold hair He sighed hope
less^ it the difference between their
present lives "I will go bark." ho told
hor huskily, "to my failures. The pity
of It is that I should ever have
brought yon to share them." Lily
drew liim aside.
"Dearest," she said, "you are not
coins home to failure: and when 1
have finished here what T am doing,

Well, I am responsible for It all. and
I have managed dozens for friends
who used to be with me at col lee.
The order- and the money .lust grew:
And it was not charity. John, for my
charges were the same as those paii'
to former caterers. Rut now- my work
Is nlnu*T done. When father heanl of
my plan, and Its success, he wrote
hastily, sympathetically. \nd when
yon return home 1 think that yon will
find him there ready to help In the re
building of your business. This time
if w III be on a sure Imsis. John: this
time you will crow to success "
And as .lot n Towers bent reverent
ly to the radiant face of his wife he
said soft I \ :
"Oh! My pure white—my true colli |
lady!"
