IN the cab. 1t might ger the driver into
trouble. The fellow was honest, no
doubt, and Herrlck did not wish that
he should suffer wrong. He preferred
to keep the wrapper himself and take
the risk of 1t until he could find some
means of disposing of it that would be
safer than throwing it out of the cab
window
How to leave the cab was a question
that concerned him nearly. He did not
wish to confront the driver again, for
there might be an investigation, and
the question of Identification might
arise, in which case 1t would be well to
have the man know as little as possible
of Herrick's personal appearance. He
reflected with satisfaction that the spot
on Wall street where he had entered the
carriage had been rather dark.
The cab stopped suddenly. its path
being blocked by a tangle of vehicles.
Herrlck put his hand upon the latch of
the door. 1t yielded noiselessly; the
door swung open.
Herrick stepped out. Turning back
for an instant he perceived the cabman
sitting upon his box in entire uncon-
seriousness of the fraud that was being
practiced upon him. He was poor
man. and doubtless worked hard for all
the money that he received. Stin. it
was reckless to attract his attention
again; especially so. after having left
the cab in that strange manner.
There was a way to the sidewalk
through the press of vehicles. Herrick
saw 1t from the corner of his eye. and
was about TO take advantage of II. In

Herrick paid him with the So bill which

short time before. He counted his
change carefully. remembering that he
would probably have to wait until the
next day before he could break one Of
the thousands. Enough remained to
him from the bill for a supper. a bed
and a breakfast.
When he had found a restaurant he
ordered a meal and ate It with a relish.
1t was enchanted food 1t was the fare
OF an Atlantic liner. the delicacies of
European hotels. and the fruits Of the
tropics.
He cared little for his bed. It would
beno more than place to lie and think
OF the future. 1t was many a night
since he had really slept. Certainly,
with so much upon his mind. he would
not sleep this night, even II he should
try. So when he had been shown to his
room in the hotel he piled his pillows
against the headboard' of the bed and
reclined against them, fully dressed.

and It did not feel like bread. But had
It been food and he at the last pang Of
starvation, the touch Of 1t would not
have sent such a thrill through all his
frame.
He knew that the contents Of that
package was money. 1t felt like mass
o. bills, folded. awkwardly wrapped up
and fastened with elastic bands.
Through the brown covering Herrick
could fee. the crispness Of the govern
ment paper. The amount might be
poor mans monthly wages or rich
mans profit on great transaction.
AS TO his own conduct in the matter,
IIerrick had no doubt whatever. Fate
had thrown this money into his hands.
and fate might take It away, but not II
he could hold on tightly enough. His
fingers trembled as he picked at the
elastic bands. Suddenly, and without
his knowing why, the rubber strings
vanished with loud snap that startled
him. and the package sprang open on
his knees. lie caught n fash Of green
color, and then the cab rolled out Of

the chance passenger on the street saw
nothing; he was thinking Of his own
affairs. no doubt, and had no lnkling Of
the strange thing that passed so close
to his eyes.
Herrlck was himself again In mo-
ment, and he bent forward. eagerly
scanning the bills in his hands, and
counting them feverishly. There were
forty of them, and each was Of the de-
nomination Of $1,000,
Throughout the later period Of the
young mans misfortunes he had had
substantially but one wish-to rest.
Rest has many forms, suited to a vast
variety of individual tastes. To Her
rick in his day dreams it had always
taken the form of travel without care.
All paths lie open to a man who has
$4,000. and there is no reason why
care should sit behind him as he rides.
Herrick had only the most shadowy
thought for the person who had lost
this money. He did not even speculate
upon the manner of its loss. 1t had
passed into the control of one who
needed it, and that was enough.
He disposed the notes in his pockets
in the best interests of comfort and
safety. Then he folded up the brown
paper and pocketed that also, with a
dim consciousness that, if it were left

A MATTER OF INSTINCT

Fate was a cat ana Leonard Herrick
was mouse. There had been some
rare sport. but IIerrick was Of the opn-
lon that It could not last much longer.
He had run this way and that way,
and a thousand times he had fancied
that he was going to escape. But al
ways the velvet paws, with the long,
sharp claws sprlnglng out Of them,
had caught him just in time. SO at last
he lay still, painting, not knowing which
way to turn.
He was In a big city all alone. The
people who rushed by him were like the
thoughts that whlrled through his
brain; they were shadows. and the ev-
erlastlng train of them had no begin
ming nor end. He could not distinguish
the real men and women whom he saw
from those whom he merely remem-
bered. Now and again there appeared
In the throng the faces Of the dead. lie
did not mind those but there were
others that he shrank from.
He stood with his back against the
iron fence In front of Trinity Church.
There was just light enough in the
western sky to give the pile of stone a
shadow which fell upon hurrying thou
sands who did not notice 1t.
Herrick's hands were In his pockets.
He crumpled a cracking piece of paper
which meant that he could live several
days longer If he cared to do so. AS
to more extended future, he could
not picture It, All the lines of his life
seemed to end In a knot. which could
by no means be united, but must
merely be dropped. He remembered
that there were miracles. but he coulG
not think of one to wish for.

part OF Broadway is rich and prosper

connections and takes a strong interest
In life; after . il loses caste rapidly, and

home TO supper. Herrick felt the de-
I generacy OF the throng without really
seeing 1t. If whole street full of peo-
/ pie could get shabby in an hour was
It any wonder that he had done it in
/ five years.
He crossed Broadway and walked
down Wall street, slowly and with hes
itation. for he had no errand. A voice
cried. Cab, sirr almost in his ear. He

1t was the first place that had come
into his mind lie got into the cab, and
snapped the door. The cushioned seat
and the comfortable support for his
head were refreshing. A fancy came to
him that he would dine deccntly and
then go to a theater. The extravaganza
would be trihing. for It was really of
small Importance whether he starved
