selves the best they can.

Dick and Rogers reached the
mine all right aud they found it rich
er than they had expected, and when
they returned to camp they were well
loaded with the precious metal.
1t Was long time before they
knew the fate of Joe and Jim. Six
years after the episode on the river
bank, Dick, prominent and pros
porous man of San Francisco, sat in
his Office one day, when q ragged,
dirty man came to him in search of
work. He at once recognized the
man as Joe. After considerable ques-
tioaing Joe told the story of his life
during the last SIX years-how he
and Jim had drifted down the west
branch OF the river next morning af-
ter setting Dick and Rogers aioat,
and how, after many hardships and
narrow escapes from death, they had
reached camp in a starving con-
dition.
He told, too, of how everything
had gone wrong with them since, and
how Jim was serving term in jail
for theft, and now he himself was al
most suffering for food.
81 couldn't trust you in my en-
ploy,' Dick said, "after the trick
you played Rogers and me, and l
know my pardner, Rogers, wouldn't
have you about, but I'll give you
this hundred dollars for the friend
ship that was once ours"
Joe sheepishly took the money
and slowly turned away, mu;tering !:
at pays to tote fair after all. If
we hadn't been so greedy and tried
to steal the whole mine we might be
we'll off now.'
When he reached the door he
stopped, and, turning back, said:
I'D give heap, Dick, to have
your confidence, as l once had it.
I'd rather have that than all the gold
in America. Chicago News.
