ing life again in some counting house,
and Then suddenly he remembered.
Only two nights before he had attend
ed drill at the headquarters of his vol
unteer corps. The men had been ask
ed which Of them wished to join the G.
I. V. for the front He thought Of the
glow that had burned through his
veins, how he had longed to offer him
self and had only been prevented by
his feeling of obligation to his old
friends business. Now he was free!
That settled it. Old England was in
need Of help from men such as he. he
was as sound as a bell in wind and
limb. He had done his turn at volun-
teering and could shoot more than a
little.
Within half an hour his name was
entered as one Of those who were ready
for service at the front, and he was or
dered to go before the doctor.
That gentleman laughed at him.
eff we get 1,400 men as fit as you
are" he said, 1--WE shall do wellp
Having successfully passed all the
tests and been duly enrolled as one Of
the City of London Imperial volunteer
corps, he felt slightly easier in his
mind.
1t must be confessed that he was in
that pleasant frame Of mind when a
man firmly believes that there is no
body to grieve over him and finds a
morbid pleasure in the prospect Of a
soldiers grave.
Most of us get these attacks Of de-
spondency some time in our lives, and,
to tell the truth, it lasted very short
time with Joe Redbolt. After few
days of hard drill he had lost sight Of
the possibility of getting killed and
was looking forward to making things
as unpleasant as possible for the enc
my.
At last the final moment came. He
had attended the services at St PauPs
and sung the national anthem until he
was hoarse. He had been slapped on
the back by hundreds of warm hearted
but heavy handed citizens. He had
even fought his way successfully
through a mob Of enthusiastic patriots
all the way from Bunhill row to Nine
Films, where he was one of the first to
arrive.
There stood the train waiting to take
them to Southampton. There, too,
stood the long suffering band, and
every minute groups of breathless, ex-
cited men in khaki. who had also
fought theil way through the crowd.
rushed on to the platform.
Of course it was all over. There was
nothing to be done but get into the
train and say goodby to old London
for months-perhaps forever. Once
more a gloomy sense of loneliness came
upon him. Everybody else had chum
or relative to see him off. And then
an angel came from heaven? Not
quite. But an earthly angel appeared
in the shape of slight form in a long,
black cloak, who was pushing her way
feverishly through the crowd, eagerly
scanning the faces Of all the gentle
men in Khaki

ONE Or THE
CITY'S OWN
How q Young Man Came to Go to
the South African War.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
"Mr. Redbolt is to go to the governor
at once"
Mr.. Redbolt strobe briskly across the
room. A moment later he was in the
private Office.
Young Mr.. Dewhurst, who had man
aged the business since the death of
his father, gave him furtive look as
he entered and then turned hurriedly
to a bundle of correspondence by his
side and selected letter with an air
of malicious satisfaction.
The ball was opened by Mr.. Dew
hurst unfolding cantankerous COM
plant from an unimportant customer.
1t was the merest trif1e and quite un-
worthy Of the occasion. Nevertheless
Joe Redbolt was by no means surpris-
ed at the tone adopted. For some time
past the smallest opportunities had
been seized for fault finding, and he
knew by instinct that the climax had
been reached.
How do you account for this blum
der? asked Mr.. DeWhurst suspicious
ly.
His clerk gave simple, straightfor-
ward explanation, which, to a reasona-
BILE man, would have been sufficient.
But Mr.. Dewhurst was not in rea-
sonable humor.
at appears to me, then, that you are
not in any way to blame, Mr.. Redbolt,"
he said cynically.
II think not"
''You never make a mistaken"
''Not very often"

There was a moments silence, and
the two men looked into one another's
eyes.

This appeared to give the unworthy
little tyrant his opportunity.
''You are more than half imperti-

feet good temper.
Perhaps not, but I'm tired of it.
You forget your proper position and
have crossed my will in several ways"
Mr.. Redbolt colored rather painfully,
and his principal continued, with a
smile of spiteful triumph:
"You understand what l allude tow

'tShall we calculate the month from

a perfectly even, matter Of fact voice."
"Eh-yes," said Mr.. Dewhurst But
won't ask you to continue your work
here"
With that he pushed across the table
a little pile Of coins which had been
counted out already, clearly showing
that he intended from the first to make
use Of the opportunity.

For the first time Joe kedboIt looked
angry. 1t was adding insult to injury
to send him away at a moments no.
tice, as if he had disgraced himself.
1t was the more outrageous because
he was distant relation Of the Dew
bursts by blood. The two young men
had been for a short time at school
together. They had entered the firm
together, and Redbolt had worked his
way up by sheer ability under old Mr..
Dewhurst's eye to responsible posi-
ton.
Naturally they knew the same people
and to some extent visited the same
houses, and it was in this way that
Dewhurst's inherent jealousy had rip
ened into positive rancor, for that
there was a member Of the fair sex at
the bottom of it is almost obvious.
The innocent cause Of the trouble,
little dreaming of the mischief she was
creating, had thoroughly enjoyed the
rivalry Of the two men, as every
daughter Of Eve is bound to do, and
she had not made it quite clear which
Of them was to be favored, which is
certainly woman's privilege.
But Joe Redbolt was generally be-
lieved to be the lucky man, and Dew
hurst had vented his unmanly spite by
a thousand annoyances in the Office.
However, in love, as in war, it is the
unexpected that often happens. Joe
Redbolt proposed and was refused
point blank.
Now, most men, when they see dan
gerous rival put out of court, bury
their animosity and even become gen.
erous.
But this was not the case with Fred
Dewhurst. Petty annoyances develop
ed rapidly into daily insults until the
morning, as we have seen, he had
found an excuse to cut his former
schoolfellow adrift.
Joe Redbolt picked up the pile of
coins, counted them deliberately and
put them in his pocket.
'Now, Fred Dewhurst," he said
huskily, 1--WE are no longer master and
man, so that can say what think"
Dewhurst looked rather alarmed
and drew a,small silver bell near to his
side
ooh, don1sbe frightened" said Joe,
with a smile of amusement. "I'm not
going to thrash you! 1t wouldn't be
fair to hit man of your sizew
Mr.. Dewhurst tried to sheer, but only
looked nightly relieved.

you" said Joe.
go on" said Dewhurst, with grin.
Seeing that you've had the worst Of
it all through, | suppose l mustn't
mind a few spiteful Words!'
Il want to tell you that you're the
meanest cad I've met, and if that poor
girl marries you I'm sorry for herr
''In fact, you're so sorry" said Dew
hurst, that you'd even marry her
yourself Capital! And, now you've
said enough. I'll wish you good morn
ing"
With a mighty effort of self re
straint, Joe pulled himself together,
and resisting the impulse to knock him
down, swung out Of the room.
He had lost everything-the girl he
loved and the means of earning his
living. He was alone in the world,
