more than the names of u dozen members
of the academy signed upon hundred feet
of canvas, even when the matter were en-
bellished by gilded frames. One thought,
nevertheless, troubled his pleasure ; the
necessity of depositng in his uncles coffin
half the fortune which he had received so
unexpectedly. And as he lay between
dreaming and waking, he wondered whether
the recent events were realities or hallu-
cinations.
The next morning he sprang out of bed,
continuing his reflections, and after wash
ing himself in tub of water, prepared to
complete the painful sacrifice. Taking
seat he drew the check book from his pocket
and made ready to write the check for the
money which he was to draw from the
hank for the purpose, alas of placing in
his uncle's last resting place. He reflected
a moment before putting pen to paper, and
suddenly his eyes frightened and smile
appeared on his lips.
''Ha, my boy, our uncle didn't think of
that" he said.
Two hours later Lawyer Potter, surprised
at not receiving visit from his client,
entered the room, and finding the young
man seated before fat fowl properly
cooked, was welcomed with an air of beau
titude free from clouds.

"Now, Mr.. Potter, what say you to

"Perfectly."
Every we'll whenever Uncle Grasper
wants the money he need only 90 and draw
it."
The argument was unanswerable, and
when solomon had piously deposited the
check in his Uncle Grasper's coffin, in the
presence of the lawyer, the latter was OBJ
| liged to certify in due form that the heir
had fulfilled all the conditions of the will
and was entitled to be placed in possession
of its inheritance.

he had been successful, but for all
that period of time he had been literally
homeless. Now he was proceeding to a
home of his own.
lie had bought little suburban cottage
without having seen it. Had taken the

paying for it had started out to find his
new home.

from which a shrub-grown path wound up
through untrimmed woods to a one-story

the velvet rug.
"Gibbs told me there was some furniture
in the house, and an old woman left in
charge" thought Markleman, sitting down
in the easy chair aid expanding his chilled
fingers to the CHEEKY blaze but hadn't
any idea Of such snug quarters as this"
As Mr.. Markleman sat there, basking in
