CHAPTER III.
THE MESSAGE FROM JAPAN.

The MESSAGE FROM JAPAN,
HN the week following my visit to
New Haven had the pleasure of
meeting Donald Donaldson. In
the meantime had made q care
full investigation Of his character and
ability. The result was surprising.
Rarely have 1 heard man SO highly
praised, yet this appreciation seemed
to have done him no good. The most
Influential member Of the firm that en-
ployed him told me that Donaldson
was wonder in business way, and
yet, SO far as l could learn, nothing
had been done for his advancement in
two years except that few dollars
had been added to his weekly wage
which was still disgracefully small.
AT the age of twenty-four he had be-
come familiar with the dull pang Of
Encouragement. He knew that he was
serviceable in his place, and he had no
fear of the loss Of it; indeed he feared
much more the prospect of retaining it
to the end of his days, He lacked ag-
gressive selfshness and the rude, obyi-
GUS signs of self esteem.
1t was my intention to call on him
at 10 o'clock and suggest that we take
luncheon together, but was somewhat
delayed, and when l entered the hall
of the great building Donaldson was
just stepping out of one of the eleva-
tors. l knew him instantly by de-
scription.
There was the usual hurrying throng.
Donaldson saw no one wAom he knew,
and he gave no face second glance,
but almost every one who had the op-
portunity looked twice at him. 1t
would be hard to say why. for his ap-
pearance was, ON the whole, conven-
tional. He was upward of six feet in
height, yet had not the look of tall
man. Ills countenance was agreeable
when one had come to know him, and
his brown eyes We're capable of much
variety Of expression; but, as rule,
they seemed to be somewhat vacant.
Follow their glance, and it would lead
nowhere. Often the eyes Of the blind
