The engagement of Maggie Gallagher to Dan Maher, was in the latter class. They worked in the same factory, lived on the same street, and had known each other since childhood. When he asked the question which millions of young men had asked before him, she gave a happy consent, and was as fully satisfied as if Dan had been a millionaire instead of merely a factory hand. The question of an engagement ring proved a serious problem to the groom elect. His savings were small and the price asked for even very modest rings was almost prohibitive to him. Providence seemed to smile upon him when he found a handsome diamond ring upon the sidewalk, ignorant of its value, he decided that no harm would be done by keeping it and presenting it to Maggie, and so, unwittingly, he started trouble for himself. The owner of the ring advertised for it, offering a reward, and the advertisement chanced to be read by Nora Kelly, who had vainly endeavored to ensnare handsome Dan, Nora was angry, and in her rage did something which she bitterly regretted. She had seen Dan find the ring, and going to the owner, she told the lady that Dan had stolen it. Dan was arrested, charged with the theft of the ring and locked up. After the momentary feeling of joy Nora felt keen pangs of remorse. The sight of Maggie, her successful rival, bravely trying to keep back the tears as she worked at her machine, was more than she could bear. She went to Mrs. Gerard, the owner of the ring, and told her that Dan was guiltless of all wrong. He was released at once, and Nora was forgiven for the trouble she had caused. The ring, while apparently causing misfortune to come to Dan, really brought luck to him, for Mrs. Gerard, interested herself in the affairs of the young couple, and Maggie soon became Mrs. Dan Maher.
