The brother that Janetta Howard
addressed was . good-looking lad
about 10 years old, with dark appeal
ing eyes. and closely cropped curly
hair. The face was spoiled by the
purposeless. weak mouth and the char
acterless chin. He reclined in an easy
chair, and was smoking pipe, with
his hands thrust deep into his trouser
pockets.
What nonsense, Jennie! As il l

as common servant! Besides, don't

The last words were brought out
sadly and reluctantly, briefly telling
the tale OF the present low ebb in their
fortunes.
