There had been a robbery in our office,
and as suspicion usually falls on the junior,
I was suspected.
I considered $his hard, very hard and un -
lust, especially as tbere were others in our
room, who, to my mind, were at least as
.Ikely to have committed the theft as my-
self ; yet on me the odium of it all fell.
;Tot that I was openly accused': there was
dot sufficient evidence to go upon for that ;
but who has not seen the glances, heard the
dropped words, and gone through all the
unpleasant experiences of such a time ?
One day I was called into the presence
of the two heads of .the firm, and gravely
told what had occurred and questioned con-
cerning it.
A sum of fifty pounds had beeu5extracted
from their private desk. The money had
been locked un overnight for use in the
morning, and to ! when sought for, it had
vanished 1
I gasped with astonishment and con-
sternation. Fifty pounds was a fortune in
my eyes.
" Gone, sir !" I said, " You don't mean
it !"
" Yes , James," answered Mr. Brooks,
the senior partner, sternly ; " gone ; every
penny of it ; and now it is my unpleasant
duty to ask you if you know anything of
this unfortnnate transaction, and to remind
you that you worked late last night."
It was true:enough. I had stayed later than
the others,te get my bogus into thorough
order. It was my custom to work over-
time if my books were at all behind.
"Yes, sir," I answered as firmly as I
could, "I did work late last night, but as
I stand before you, I know nothing of the
money."
To my mortification I felt the red dyeing
my face. My employersdight read ibas an
acknowledgment of my guilt. I was aware
of this, and the thought maddened me. -
"It is strange, very strange," went on
Mr. Brooks ; " you were the only one here,
the money could not disappear without
hands. You have only been with us six
months, and on you, naturally, suspicion
rests. Your fellow -clerks are men of integ-
rity, and have been with us many years. It
will pain us much to put the matter into
other hands, but there is nothing else to be
done, eh ! Mr. Kent?"
His partner moved uneasily. He had
Seen kind to me in many ways. I looked
eagerly towards him now, trusting he Would
speak in my favour.
" We have never found him dishonest be-
fore," he said, sorrowfully. " As to put-
ting the matter into other hand?, let it wait
a day or two, perhaps something will come
out meanwhile."
They were silent for a few moments.
Suddenly Mr. Brooks spoke.
" You are in lodgings, I believe, James?"
" Yes, sir ; at No. 24 West -street."
" You will have no objection to going
there now with us, and turning out your
boxes before us ?"
I hesitated. The thought of my employ-
trs going to my poor little lodgings and
.turning over my shabby belongings was dis-
pleasing to me. I saw an unpleasant ex-
eression glimmer in Mr. Brooks' eyes.
" You will have your trouble in vain, sir,"
I answered ; " but come, if you will."
In a few minutes we were in a cab, being
whirled along the sunlit streets. I felt like
a criminal beingtaken to prison.
I sat silently .vith my back to the horse,
while my employers conversed briefly on
the other seat.
`We were nearing our destination ; the
street grew narrower and more gloomy than
ever. The sun here could find no way be-
tween the tall, smoke -grimed houses. At
last we stopped at No. 24, West -street. I
hastened to get out in order to unlock the
door.
It was nearing dinner time, a smell of
burnt onions pervaded the house, not unmix-
ed with an odour of soap -suds coming up
from below. I led the way up the narrow
staircase, and from thence into my room.
It was in reality a bedroom, but there I sat
in my few hours of leisure ; my meals were
served in the common sitting -room below.
My employers looked curiously around
them. The room, no doubt to their eyes,
was repulsive in the extreme. It seemed to
me to look shabbier than usual this morning.
I wished that I had not left my dirty boots
kicking about on•the floor, and had opened
the window to let in the fresh air.
"This is your bedroom, James," remark-
ed Mr. Kent, kindly. " Is your sitting -
room on the same floor ? "
This is my only room, sir," I said briefly.
A look of pity came to his eyes. Mr. Brooks
limply seemed impatient and somewhat dis-
gusted.
" W ell, now to business,". he saideharply,
" Will you turn out your boxes, young sir ?"
One after the other I emptied the contents
of my three chests,and they stoo&watching.
It was a useless proceeding, and I felt a
thrill of satisfaction in the thought how use-
less they would find it. There was a.purse
in one of the boxes. I opened it before
them, and counted out eight shillings and
fourpence. It was my little all, treasured
and valued, saved towards my winter's
that Jenkins was the thief ; that
this valued, trusted, esteemed servant
had given way to sudden temptation, and
had taken the money. The idea became a
certainty ; and yet there was no proof ; no-
thing to go upon to wrest the secret from the
unhappy man.
I determined to work hard to prove my
own innocence, yet a feeling of pity made
me hesitate to take away another's charac-
ter and livelihood.
au week had passed away when an event'
occurred which tended to increase my sus-
picion as to the, head clerk's having had
something to do with the robbery.
It was a hot day, and the summer sun
was beating fiercely in at the unshuttered
windows of our office. We were working
languidly at our desks, now and then yawn-
ing with the heatand fatigue, and our chief
clerk looking more ghastly than ever, when
suddenly there was a noise in the direction
of Jenkins' desk, followed by a fall as of a
heavy substance. We sprang to the desk
and discovered Jenkins on the floor in a
faint.
To me he looked as if thesoul had already
parted from his body.
In a few minutes, however, he opened his
eyes We were giving him water, and my
hand held the glass. Suddenly he- espied
me, and pushed me from him.
" No James," he muttered feebly. ""Any-
one but James." -
I drew back and gave the glass to :anoth-
er. They, no doubt, thought he still be-
lieved in my guilt.
The next day, as I was leaving the office
to get my dinner, I met an old schoolfellow
named Capel, who was a clerk in a lawyer's
office close by.
We stopped to have a few words. He
said he thought I looked paler than of
old, and I replied that my work was long
and hard, and that many times I put in
overtime.
"Yes," he answered ; "there must be a
jolly lot of work in -your office. I met old
Jenkins leaving theplace at half -past eleven
the other night. He told ire he had been
working overtime, and seemed worn out;
could hardly string his sentences together.
To judge by his appearance and yours, my
boy, you're worked like slaves."
"What evening was it you met Mr. Jen-
kins?" I asked eagerly; "do you remem-
ber the date?"
"Perfectly. It was -the 18th of June. I
remember it because I was returning from
the Opera. Madame Janeta had been act-
ing Marguerite in Faust. I tell you it was
grand. I quite lost my heart to her."
June 18th ! My heart stopped its beating.
Capel rattled on about the actress, and
her beauty, &c., but I heard nothing ; all I
knew was that I had now a clue to work
upon—a clue that might lead me to day
light.
I bid Capel "good-bye," and went my
way.
I soon ate my dinner, and, greatly excited
at what Capel had told me, hurried back to
the office. Fortune tavoured me ; I was
early. There was only one other in the
office, that was Mr. Jenkins.
I began a conversation, forcing it on in
spite of the little encouragement on his
part. I brought in the fact of my having
met a friend.
" By the by," I said, "he is a mutual
acquaintance, I believe ; he remarked that
he knew you, Mr. Jenkins ; his name is
Capel. He thinks you work too hard, sir.
He told me he met you coming out of the
office at half -past eleven one night—it was
on the 18th of June ; He remembered the
date on account of being on his way home
from the Opera. He said you looked ill and
tired out, and no wonder !"
I cast a glance at him ; he looked death-
like. He framed his lips to speak ; they
uttered no sound.
I continued : " Strange, sir, that two of
us should have worked late on the 18th.
The caretaker told Mr. Brooks that I was
the last on the premises, yet I left at 9 30."
The pallid lips found utterance at last ;
they even formed themselves in a ghastly
smile—hollow and wretched in its very
mirth.
" Yes, James, I remember your friend.
We met just outside the office door, it
is true ; but he is mistaken in
thinking I had been inside. ' I was re-
turning from visiting a friend, and as I was
passing the office I met Capel. I suppose
he had jumped to the conclusion that I had
been working late."
" He.:eertainly did," I answered hotly,
" and what is more, I believe it myself, and
others would believe it too. I shall not
rest till I sift this miserable business .to the
bottom."
" As you will," he answered, with assum-
ed carelessness ; " prepare for ' disappoint-
ment and failure."
The other clerks' entrance put, a'stop to
further conversation.
The next day I pondered over the matter,
wondering how I should next proceed, and
who to get to aid' me in my investigations.

SILVER MINES.
Canadians have invested in 9-10 of the real
estate of the new towns in Kootenay, while
Americans 9-10 oI the mines. The success of
the towns depends on the success of the mines.
The
Koot tray lining Inv€siment Co.
represent four duly incorporated Silver Min-
ing Companies, owning twelve mines in Brit-
ish Columbia and two in Montana on the same
rich belt, the richest in the world.
They afford the safest and most profitable
nvestment in Canada. The first issue of stock
places investors on the ground floor and is
nearly all taken up. The second issue will be
25 per cent. to 50 per cent. higher. Then its
advancement will be rapid owing to greater
development work. Now is the opportunity.
Don't let it slip. It is not often investors have
such a chance as this. Call at office, Boa of
Trade Building. Toronto.
