Kenneth has been ' home two days. He has more information to give out about his own wife than I have. Being old fashioned in my notions of propriety, I promptly lost interest in the young lady the moment Kenneth married her." - Thereupon Mr. Donaldson growled e naughty word and went away. Kenneth Marthorn, returning to his father, had exhibited a chastened spirit and filial respect. However, the - elder Marthorn, on his part, showed no respect for his son's mood or his reticence. He broke in furiously on the young man's first words. "You'Il tell nie what you think is best, eh ? You'll tell me all." • "Up to a certain point, sir, I can tell you.

There was a shade of his usual banter in his tone, as if he were trying to relieve the situation. "All or - nothing." • "-You expect me to take you at your word, do you?" Colonel Mar - thorn should have considered. that part of his own temperament that was in his son. "Most certainly I do!" "Then it's nothing!" "You gave me your man's word," raged the father.
