One Monday morning James. instead Of
recountins the delights Of Coney and
| halladizing through his teeth, assembled the
| wagon with a heavy sigh, All day he sat
: dumb. his sprightliness wilted, his as
suranco crushed, his stol!d face. squared
arms and stitf spine but empty mum
meries.
Hickey, at the reins. observed that the
Boss must have been combing, James's
hair but urged him not to take 1t too
hard, as he did need toning down. as you
might say. James only sighed. staring dis
tantiy. as though discerning. far of, un-
happy things.
For week consultations were vain. then
he began to mend. His dress and deport-
ment were beyond suspicion; he was
soberly cheered, but his wink had fed and
even the perk in his nose seemed subdued
His sole lapse was on the morning of
Heinrich BrOs.' fire. when he ran out to
watch the ambulances pass. and forgot to
! return for an hour. Hickey judged that
the boss must have combed James's hair
afresh, for he made the afternoon trip very
wan and nerveless. and for the rest Of the
week his was the face Of one who realizes
that he has done, left undone, and there Is
no health in him.
One morning tho wagon started half an
hour earlier than usual. James was obliged

he was given new route on an unusually
full wagon. There was also unusual in

rushed downstairs before the maid had

the door themselves. James questioned his
driver listlessly.
