IT cannot truly be said that Leonard
Doyle was spoiled by too great
and too swift prosperity. yet it
may be admitted that he made Il
II few unimportant mistakes While
he was adjusting himself to the
new conditions of his life. one of these
mistakes is connected with the dinner
which he didn't eat on the evening of
st. Patrick's day. But | am getting
ahead OF my story.
MIR. Doyle is the young architect who
made Il sensation by winning first
place in the competition for n design
for the new municipal building. Up to
six months before this triumph Doyle
was an employee of Il firm of architects
decidedly third rate. He was utterly
obscure professionally. and he was
very poor. for he had earned his own
education with this for his motto: I'D
rather put money into my brains than
into the bank" In the end he Hwoke
suddenly to find that the problem of
his life had been gloriouSly solved.
Incidentally the problem of the life
of Mr.. Patrick Carroll was solved also.
MT. HEItll WIS IL me lliiil VII HIS wv II
account and he had tn" great good for
tune to be the prospective father-in-
law of Leonard Doyle. lie was IL mas
ter mason and had ventured once or
twice to be a contractor Oh Il small
scale. With Leonard Doyle as architect
Of the new building the luck must be
extremely hard if Patrick Carroll could
l,,, 10, t,,,., h., 81
penny in the course of its construction.
In fact. within Il very few months both
Doyle and Carroll saw themselves we'll
upon the way to pecuniary ease. if not
to actual wealth.
The young architect. whose design
had really made Il great hit with those
men Of good taste who always fear the
worst in amy public work, began 10 re-
ccivc social attentions and to fore
gather with the upper ten both in
and out of the profession, and, as he
was m ovCrmodrSt fellow. his lack of
social training grioved him exceeding
ly. as he confessed to Annie Carroll
one evening.
You could 90 anywhere" said Doyle,
with artistic as Wen as emotional con
viction. "but | couldn't. I've had 10
hustle hard for my living ever since /
was knee high. and ii shows on me-
Don't be ashamed of what You
We're" said Annie. 1T has made you
what YOU arc"
Every true" responded Doyle argu-
mcntativoly. Its no disgrace TO Il
workiugman that his hands are rough,
but it is mortal disgrace to him if he
says th"v aren't rough when they are.
Let's be TRUTHFUL he continued. sur
vcN in~ his image in Il long mirror, land
admit that I'm mighty crude spec-
meu."
Il Xix" you fairly we'll as YOU are,
said Annie" standing beside him and
looking critically into the glass. but,
then. I'm as crude as yourself, Don't
depend on my Judgment"
"NoW. lets get down to the practical
par Of it, said Doyle. I'm Il good
student. | can get Il great deal from
observation. If ! see the right sort of
men, can learn, and you can help me.
Let's 90 out together to places where
the best people 90, to art galleries and
and swell restaurants and that sort
of thing"
II don't think much of your motive
replied Annie. but your invitation
suits me exactly. We've had nothing
tit to eat in this family since mother
