He had been the legal adviser of 'John Nason for any years, and when that busy mem ant came to him on behalf of his son who - wanted to flrid a position for Al ert Page, lerye. readi- ly promised to g oe him employment. . It was not becau e he needed bine but because he saw t once that through some friendship or this young sprig of the law, as he intuitlielys considered 'Albert to be, he could strengthen his hold upon the fa her and obtain soine secrets that migi t eventually, be used to rob him. In pl in words, he thought to use this. young country lawybr as a spy. He knew t at John Nason felt a keen interest i his only son Frank, and that was an ther reason for em- ploying that son s friend. Ile knew also that Frank was given a liberal allowance,--epent it rapidly and roost likely would be getting into. oarious serapes i needing lawyer's 'efforts to rescue him, and` he would have fur- ther pickiny in at direction. These were two good re sons for his ostensi- ble acts of kindne s, and. so he at once sent for Page to some. < • When, the mor ing after hie arrival fa Boston, Albert presented himself at Frye's office, he found that lawyer busy reading his e nil. - • "Take a seat, xi , Said Frye politely, aftei. Alberti had introduced himself, "and exchsoltms u til I go through my letters." And thee for a long half i hour Albert wanl ft to study the bare odic. walls and eculiar looks of his future employer. Finally Frye turned to him and ask d rather abruptly, I "Well, Mr. Page, what do you know , about law?" at th same time scanning him as if expecting to see hayseed ad- hering to his garnients. . I "Not much perhaps," replied Albert modestly, uncertaln of his ground. "I have been in pra tice only a year at Sandgate, and the few people there do Rot have much us for "a lawyer."

And then he added, with a searching look, as if he was about to utter a crusher, "What is your idea of a lawyer's chief o Sect in existence?" Page was a 1ltth nonplused. "Oh, 1 euppose," he replied slowly, "to see that laws are pr perly executed and justice done." Frye looked at him a full minute without making a y further comment, while a sardonic rin gradually drew his lips apart, showing a full 'set of false teeth, and then, as he began rubs bing his hands together, he said: ."It's evident, yoting man, you hair* rnucih to learn in your profession. paws are made for lawyers and are the tools of our trade.

That night he wrote to Alidei "I have hired out to a most unthitigat- ed 01Ii. scoundrel and yet one of the sharpest lawyers I ever met, He as- sured nae I must lay aside my con- science if I Mean to succeed, and hint- ed that he might use me later on no a sort of epy, upon Frank, I imagine. He 'enaploys a stenographer of uncer- tain age who comes in and takes dic- , tation and does her work outside. The only stupid thing he has said was to warn me not to flirt with her." Then he /vote to his friend Frank, telling him where he was located, thaekitig him for his assistance and begging him to call' at an early date. After that he smoked for' an hour in glum -silence. Ills room was small and cheerless and in comparison with , his home quarters a mere den. But it was a question of saving, and the lux- • ury of space even he could mot afford. There is no more lonesome place In the wide world than a great city to . one borredand bred amid the freedom of the wide fields and extended wood- lands, as Albert had been, and now, that • he was shut in by brick walls all day and imprisoned in .one email room at night, with a solitary window. opening on 'an area devoted to ash barrels and garbage, it made him homesick. i He was a dreamer by nature and loved the music of running brooks, the rustling of winds in de forest and the song of birds, The grand old. moun- tain that surrounded Sandgate bed beethe delight of his boyhood, and AO fiSh 4. the clear streams that tumblVd, down through narrow gorges aid wouad amid wide meadows or' in the lily 'dotted millpond his pastime. He had the artist's nature in him also aid loved dearly to sketch a pretty bit of natnral scenery, a cascade in the brook or a shady grotto in the woods. He loved books, flowers, music, green heeadows, shady woods and fields white with daisies. He had been reared ammag kind hearted, honest, God fear- ing 'people who seldom locked their doom; at night and who belleyed in and lived by the Golden Rule. The selfish and. distrustful life of a great city, with its arrogance and -wealth and vanity -of displayovas not akin to him, and to put himself' at the beck and ciIl of a mereenary and utterly unscrupulous old Villain, as he believed Frye to be, was ; gall and, bitterness. For two weeks he worked patiently, hoping each day that the one and only friend the city held for him would call, passing his evenings, as he wrote Alice, "In reading, smoking and hating myself -a little and Frye a good deal." He had hesitated to write Frank in the first place, disliking to ask revere, but it eould not be helped, and now he began to feel that his friend meant to Ignore him. This humiliating conclu- sion was growing to 'a certainty and Albert feeling more homesick than ever when one afternoon while he was, as 'usual, hard at work In Frye's °ace Frank eame in. "Pray excuse me, told man," remark- ed that youth briskly after the first greetings, "for not calling sooner, but I was off on my yacht about the time you came, and then I ran down to New York to take in the cup races. You see, I'm so busy I do not get any time to myself. .1 want you to come over to the elub and lunch with me. today, and we can talk matters over." "You will kindly excuse me," replied Albert. "I have a lot of work cut out and am only allowed one hour for lunch, Can't you come around to tny room tonight and have a smoke talk?" "Maybe," replied Frank, "and we can go around to the club later, You vrilI amet some good fellows there, and we always make up a game of draw - limit, you know. Say, old man," he added interestedly, "how do you like Frye?" Mes that worthy happened to be out just then the two friends had a good chance to exchange opinions, Alberni is already known, but, for reasons, he did not care to express it to Frank at this time. "Faye is a shrewd lawyer, I pre- suine," he answered, "and so far I bayelno fault to find. He takes good care to see I have work enough, but that is what I am hired fol, and I have been rather lonesome and glad of it." Then to change the subject he added: "I waat to tlaank you once more, Frank, for getting me the place. Things were in a bad way at home, and I needed ie." "You may thank dad, not me," re- plied Frank, "I was just going off on a trip when your letter came, and turned the matter over to him. Frye's his attorney, you see." "Are you personallymrell acquainted with Mr. Frye?" asked Albert, having an object in mind. "No, not at all, except by sight," -sr as the answer.

Albert, thought of Burns' apt cyn- iciem just then and wished that Frye might for one moment see himself as others saw him. Ile felt terapted to tell Frank just what Frye bad said and what his opinion of him was, but wisely kept it to himself. "Well, I niust be going," said Frank at last. "I've got a date for the mat this aft, so ta-ta. KU call round some eve. at your rook and take you up to the club." • When his friend had departed, Albert •resumed his rather monotonous copying the gist of a lot of decisions bearing,. upon a case that Frye had pending just then,, and when he went out to lunch It was, as usual, alone and to a. cheap restaurant. '"It's nice to have it rich father, a' yacht, plenty of money and nothing to do but spend it," he said to himself rue- fully that night as he sat in his cheer- less room smoking and dweillug upon the picture of a gay life as disclosed by his friend. "But we are not all born to fortune, and. perhaps, after all, I might be worse off," which, to say the least, Is the best way to look at it. CrIA.PTIER V. HEN, a few days after Frank had called upon Page, the lat- ter chanced to mention it te Frye, he made a note oil% "I am glad," be said. cordially, "that your friend has hunted you up. I knew he was away on hit yacht when you came and was going' to suggest that you call en him as soon as I knew he was at home, At I told you, cultivate him all. you 'can. He will serve as a deer to get you into good society. When did he call?" "It was one day while yon were out," answered Page, "and he invited me to lunch with him at his club." "Which, of coarse, you did?" said Frye. "No, win I knew I shouldn't have time for it during my one' hour, and, then, you hp,d given me a lot of work to do that day." A had of annoyance came over Frye's face. "Well, that's all right, of course," he said, "but when he calls again take all the time you need if he asks you eut, and," with a ecrutinizd.ng look at Page, "as I etrid, cultieate him. It's busi- ness. Hie father is my most valued client, and the more intimate you be - 'come with his son thei sooner you will have an acquaintance/that vrill be of value to you." Page could net quite fathom all this, but the more he thought of what Frye hadiseid the more certain he became Ho found himself being fittrodueed,bif hia first name. that kindly regard for his own welfare did not enter into that shrewd schem- er's calculations. Ho was more and more disgusted also each day with his employer's cynical indifference to all sense of honor and honesty, com- ing to the conclusion that he was no better than a thief at heart. Beneath Albert' e disposition to adapt himself to those he mingled with lay a vein of sterling good eense, fine honor and the energy of self eaerifice, if necessary, and Frye's attributes were so obnoxious to him as to be simply repulsive. At college he had never indulged in naucb "larking,* and just why the bond of friendship be- tween himself and the good natured, self indulgent, happy go lucky class- mate, Frank Nason, had been eeroent- ed is hard te explain, except upon the theory ef an attraction of opposites. When, a few days later, that young man appeared, &a the office just before closing time and suggested they "go out for a night's racket," as he phrased it, Albert was not inclined to accept "What are you up to?" he said en they walked away from the office, "and what dei you mean by a reckon If its likely to be expensive, count inc out; 1 can't afford it." "Well," answered Frank lightly, "yen aro working too hard and need ehak- int up, so 1 thought I'd drop round and do it. We will dine at the club, then go to the opera house, where there is a burlesotte on and no end of pretty chorus girls. 1 know two or three a them, and after the show we will take them out to supper." "It's all right except the end -up," answered Albert, "and on that I think you had best skip me. As I saki, it's a diversion I can't affdrd. I've no Money to imams to buy wine for ballet "Oh, that's all right," responded Frank cheerfully. "I've asked you out, and it's my treat. ril pay the shot this time." "I shall pay ray share if 1 go," as- serted Albert firmly, "but I would rath- er omit the after part.. We will have the evening together, and then you can to and entertain your chorus girls, and I'll go to nay room." It Was a laudable resolution, but it came bard, for beneath all Albert' good resolves was lurking desire for a little excitement to break the dui/ mo- notony of his life. He had been to the theater only twice since he came to Boston, desiring to sae in every way he could, and only the week before had sent Alice one-third of his first month's salary. At the dub Frank introduced him to several of his friends, and. of course they were asked to join them in a social glass, which did not tend to strengthen Albert's resolution. At the theater the (minter:sting music and the glitter of a stage full of pretty girls had their effect, and by the time the show was over he found it impossible to resist his friend's urging that they go around to the stage door and meet the girls he had invited to sup with them. "Mind you, let, me pay my sharg," whispered Page, and then be found himself being introduced by his first name to two highly colored queens of the' ballet, and all feur proceeded at once to a private slipper room. Albeit found the girls briglit, vivadous and expressive, as far as a superficial usei of slang goes. They orderedcthe chole - est and highest priced items on the hill of fare and talked about their "mashes" in other cities in a way that made Al- bert grateful that he had been intro- duted by his first nanae only. When in the wee small hours they escorted the two girls to their boarding place, Page was glad to be rid of them, and when he reached his room he did not feel particularly proud of himself. He .felt less so the next morning when he received a letter from Alice which read: Jety Darling Brother -I was so pleased when I received your loving letter and tho money you sent, You do not know how it hurte mo to feel wa owe so much, and 1 have •cried over it more than you Will ever know, Last week 1 received any lirst rnonth'a Pay--$30-and I was very proud of it, for it la the nrst mono, I ever earned.
