They were all on hand early the next day.
Brown, the cashier said, not without some
surprise at hearing the president inquire
for him as Mr." Brown, had gone out to
| get his lunch. He was asked for half a

minutes the door of the directors room

thrust out and Brown would be inquired

and the directors would fall to discus ing
whether, after all, Brown hadn't taken
their bond and given them the slip. A
tue stroke of IL O'clock the door opened and
Brown walked in. He picked up the Teso-
lutions, read them with approval and,

He walked back to his desk. Pretty soon
they called him in again and the president
made little speech. They had no desire to
punish him, but-and here he hesitated and
stammered little-they were also unwill-

keep financer of his ability in the hum
BILE capa city in which he had hitherto boon
employed. Therefore, one of their number,
Mr.. wilkins, who was the agent of an in
