70 spend four days. You see, Thurs
days Memorial day, and we close at
noon on Saturday anyway, so I'll only
lose day and half, and I can get
four days good fishing out of it,"
That evening when Elliot got home
he took down the big tin box which
contained his fishing tackle and over
hauled its contents. There was a de-
lightful memory in every reel and
spoon hook. He oiled up his favorite
multiplier and fitted together his pet
bamboo casting rod. His wife had to
call him several times to come to din
ner, and when he came she noticed
that he seemed to eat with a better
appetite.
"How do you feel tonight, Will
liam?" she asked
'I believe feel little better.'
he said. "The doctor says he thinks
| I need out-of-door exercise, and /
think I'll stop in the morning on my
way downtown and make a few casts
at the pool in Garfield park But he
couldn't decide what was the matter
with nae. I'm to see him again in a
week"
But when Elliot got to his office
shortly before noon the next day he
seemed to have suffered a relapse.
He had spent an hour casting a rub
Der frog at the pool in Garfield park
and there was an unnatural color In
his cheeks. He was even more dis
traught and nervous than before, and
several times during the afternoon
he got up from the desk, and, seiz-
ing the light bomboo rod by the butt,
made vicious lunges about the Office
with It and then smiled complacently
to himself. His partner looking on
in wonder half questioned whether
or not poor Elliot was mentally af-
fected.
Elliot left the Office early and Wis
tied a big downtown fish market,
where he bought half a dozen black
bass, an eight-pound piekerel and a
mess of croppies" When Mrs. FL
liot demonstrated with her husband

angry.
"You know well enough" he said
"that I have no appetite. I can't eat

listened to him and then made

what's the matter with you. You are
certainly suffering from nm extreme

The next day was the Wednesday
before Memorial day and when FL
liot got to his Office he found among
the mail on his desk somewhat dirty
and rumpled letter which was post
marked at logging town in the big
woods of northern Wisconsin. For
some reason he laid aside much more
important business letters bearing
on some big contracts and tore open
this disreputable envelope 1t com
