THREE PROPOSALS
By HAROLD EYRE
(Copyright. 1M0B. t>y Joseph E. Bowles.)
THE FIRST.
From where he sat (he young .man
could see his reflection in the pier
glass. Taking advantage of a moment
when the girl’s attention was distract
ed, he raised liys hand furtively to t-iS
brow and with a movement almost im
perceptible. ruffled the long hair into
more picturesque disorder.
• Miss Morton,’’ he began when her
gaze agait met his, “will you allow
me to leap foi an instant the barriers
of contention which surround us?”
"Certainly.” she answered, “if you
don't leap too high.”
’One cannot leap too high," he ob
served senteutknisly, "not. even to
reach a star. I want you to let me
talk to you for a little while freely
and frankly, as one human being to
another Let me ask you this: “Do you
not have moments when the whole
world seen, a vast expanse of dark
ness without the oasis of a single beam
of light?”
“I suppose," she assented, “we all
have our mood.', of depression. I don’t
j know why 1 should hope to eseapi
| the.m.”
"Yes," he continued. “You have
youth, beauty, intellect—a rare com
bination. And still by your own ad
mission you are not happy. Does not
! that point a moral?”
"I don't k now, I'm sure. What
moral?”
"It is that you were not sent into
the world to live alone. What you need
is the companionship of a kindred
soul, of one endowed with the quali
ties requisite to round your life into
a harmonious whole.”
"1 see. And what kind of person dc
you think that kindred soul ought tc
be?”
Involuntarily the young man's eyes
again sought the glass. "In the first
place he should have youth and
health. ’ Worldly possessions in such
a matter are of little consequence
When two people are happy in them
selves, poverty loses its sting. What
is much more important is that this
kindred soul should he in complete
sympathy with you. He should be s
man of the world, yet unsullied by
contact with the more ignoble things
of life. He should have an artistic
temperament, capable of appreciating
the beautiful in every form. Above
all, he should understand you fully
so that he might read your heart like
an open book—”
"What a wonderfully gifted individ
ual he would have to be,” remarked
t ho giri. “Do you know anyone whe
could do all that .
“I think so,” replied the young man
confidently. “In fact. I may say 1 am
sure 1 do. One who not only is pos
sessed of the ciualities I have referred
to, but who is most anxious to be put
to the test.”
“Why, who could that be?"
"Mysell. 1 say it in all modesty,
although it is perhaps more than 1
ought to say; ami yet when two souls
who need each other, who, I firmly .be
lieve, were intended for each other—
when two such souls may—er—unite
to the lasting happiness of both, surely
the lack of a few plain words should
not keep them apart."
"Believe me,” said the girl, after a
uecent interval of silence, "I appre
ciate what you say—your interest in
my welfare and your desire to help
me. But it cannot be.”
The young man's face changed color.
"May I ask why?”
"Because you are too romantic.”
"Too roJiiantie!”
"Yes. 1 believe in ; > u\ a::;! ro
mance, but after all they are only a
part of life. Happiness depends, so
much more than you seem to realize,
upon material things. I'm afraid I
was never intended for a poor man’s
wife. 1 might stand poverty for awhile,
but in your case—forgive my being so
I frank—I fear it would be permanent.
No, my friend, 1 respect your good
qualities, but 1 am sure that if 1 were
to marry you, we should both be
wretchedly unhappy.”
THE SECOND.
“I'm a plain man, Miss Morton, and
I haven’t the knack of dressing my
thoughts in frills, like French lamb
chops. When I have anything to say,
1 co.me ngnt to the point. 1 hat lias
always been my way.”
"1 think it’s a very good way.” she
remarked.
“Then I'll come down to my propo- 1
sltion. As you may know. I'm a fairly
successful man. Not a Rockefeller, by |
any means, but l could draw a check j
with seven figures on it. and still have i
a few' dollars left in the bank. 1 have
good health and no bad habits, unless
you put smoking in that class. Do I
make myself plain?”
“Quite plain.” said the girl, with a
little smile.
lie nodded approvingly'. ‘T see it

don’t, take you long to turn Die when £
man is talking bm-Ibess. Maybe yon
can guess what 1 want to say. L’n
about tired of being a bachelor, It’t
all right for young fellows that cajs
run around, but when a man is pasl
40—I’m 46, if you’d care to know—he
gets .mopy if he hasn't a home. A
business man, especially, needs female
interests to keep him from thinking
too much about his affairs. 1 have
known you a long time and have been
sizing you up, and I’ve come to the
conclusion that you’d make a first
class wife for a man like me.
’’Thauk you so much for your good
opinion.”
“You needn’t thank me; I didn't say
it to please you, but because it’s what
I think. Now. I suppose you’d like
time to consider. It isn’t business
like to decide things of this kind in a
hurry.”
“But I think I can give you an an
swer now.”
“You can, eh?* So much the better,
if you have really made up your mind.
What’s the verdict?”
"I'm afraid.” said the girl, “we are
not at all suited to each other.”
’’Why not?”
“Because—because you are too prac
tical.”
THE THIRD.
For so.rne minutes the young man
had been talking of ihe weather. Pro
ceeding from a casual reference to the
evening’s temperature, he plunged into
a spirited discussion of the climate of
the I'nited States in general, its ad
vantages, its eccentricities and the
chief respects Wherein it differs from
that of the British Isles, with special
reference to the relative conditions in
New York and London.
Presently, by an abrupt transition,
he broke away from the subject.
"I came here, to-night to say some
thing to you. ttfiss Morton, something
that means a great deal to me."
"That sounds interesting. Why don’t
you say it?" I
"Because now that I am here, it
seems very hard to say. As I was
coining along the street, 1 knew just
now I wanted to express myself, but
ti I'm all tangled up and don’t know
v. i re to begin."
• ow mysterious! Does that hap
pen to you very often?"
' i ase don’t laugh at me. I shall
nevi <■ get through it if you do. This
>s a >t ry serious matter.”
"I aru listening," she said, with a
little air of resignation.
"It’s jest this.” he continued desper
ately; "I’m head over ears in love
with you. it began the first time .
saw you, and i have been a hopeless
ase, so to s; oak, e ver since. Now.
.ou'rc laughing again 1 1 know I’.ai
making a botch 01 this, but l can't,
help it. t n. ;er had the knack of say
ing sentimental things—but maybe if
you’ll give ,ae a. chance to pra iiee, 1
shall improve. I’m a stupid sort of
chajt. a thousand miles beneath you
in every w can’t even offer you
the sort of uome you ought to have,
not yet, that is but I'm are nobouv
in the world could love you more titan
l do, or work harder to make you hap
py. And if }ou cared for me a uttle,
I think I’d have the courage and the
strength to succeed in anything. js
there—is there any hope ior me?”
The girl gated down into the red-hot
coals in the grate. A slow smile
wreathed her lips. “There is some
thing funny about it." she remarked at
lengi it.
‘•Funny!” echoed the young man.
‘"Ws, l mean in ihe way things have
happened. Your proposal is the third
i have received within a week.”
‘•The third!” repeated the young
man, ruefully. "Then I can see my fin
ish. Did you—did you accept either
of the others?”
"The first,” she replied with delib
eration, ' I refused because he is too
romantic, and not only too poor to sup
port a wife, but too impractical to be
likely to do so.
"Oh! And the second?”
“The sc; ond I refused because he is
jo painfully matter-of-fact and thinks
too much of money and the material
things of hie.”
“And—.and the third?” The young
man’s voice trembled.
“The third,” continued the girl, still
looking into the lire, "the third is not
in the least romantic. On the other
hand, he is not a hit practical, and I
am sure he is in no position to sup
port a wife who has been brought up
in luxury. And yet-and yet—”
Suddenly she raised her eyes to his
There was a look in them that made
the young man's heart beat wildly.
“And yet, Jack. I love him and I’d
marry him, even if we had to live i.i
an almshouse!"
Every pretty woman knows she is
but she likes to hear her opinion con
firmed.
