So, here I was upon the first tee,
the cynosure of a large gallery, many
of whom privately wished me lush, but
:all of whom were hopeless of my abil-
ity to defeat a man whom I had learn-
ed last night was the best player .in
the resort. He had lied when he stated
that his best game was eighty-five.
Aicording to my informants, and
well-wishers of today, Vantine was
capable of seventy-eight. He had won
a great deal of money by making
unfair matches with strangers, goad-

Well, it was my own fault. I asked
sympathy neither from the gallery
nor from myself, but played the best
golf I knew. It was not good enough
so lacking was I in practice, even to
give him an argument. The match
ended six and five, on the thirteenth
green. I acted becomingly, I hope. I

And I should know! Had I not fol- '
lowed the path of honor across a
bloody field in Franre, to learn that
honor mocked me? Had I not adhered
to all those righteous rules which the
strong have laid down for the en-
slavement of the weak, and seen that
adherence lead nie from boarding-
house to tenement, from tenement to

Honor had brought me starvation.
What cant would term dishonor, had
brought me a full stomach. Well, I
had done with cant. The world had
its rules; one must be productive or
constructive, said the world. There
was no place for those who belonged
in neither class. And yet the lying
world gave its best in place, in esteem,
in what it termed success, to those
outside those rigid categories. Steal,
and be jailed; but steal enough and t_
be honored. Kill, and be hanged; but
kill sufficiently, and be enthroned.
The rules were made for the herd;
but I, John Ainsley, was no lamb to
be shepherded. I was the wolf who
preyed outside the fold and I had
atsted neat. No more, while rascals
stuffed themselves, would I go hungry.

But I smiled as these things were

I never mourn spilled milk. Instead,

That night I was as cordial at din-
ner as though nothing untoward had
occurred. Miss Kernochan invited me
to slake a fourth at bridge, and :I ac-
cepted. We played in the Kernoch'an
apartment, and I won a few dollars.
But I did more than that. I won the
liking of old Kernochan, and even the
sour -featured daughter and her pop-
eyed lover were quite cordial. Kerno-
chan, live all parvenue ---he was ob-
viously that—talked continuously of
his wealth. I learned that he was a
retired broker, and that Vantine was
the chief owned of a detective -agency
that bore his name. This latter fact
came out when Kernochan showed me,
as proof of his great wealth, a ring
which he had given his daughter upon
her engagement to Vantine. He
brought it from an inner room.
„The 'setting is a little loose,', so
Alice isn't wearing it," he told nue "I
shall have it fixed in New' York next,

I admired the ring. An enormous
ruby, it was worthy of. the warmest
admiration. And I, who had dealt so

long ago, eyed it with longing appre-
ciation. I encouraged the old vulgar-
ian to tell me about the stone.
