constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.

sion business. Taking advantage of
a shortage in the cranberry crop. he
bought large part of the available
supply and cleared thousands of dol
lars in consequence of his sagacity.
He then embarked in the produce and
commission business on a large scale
and scored another success.
At the age of thirty-iye, having
amassed a competency, Sam Rounds
determined to improve what he
termed his book education" Four
winter terms in the Rehoboth public
school gave him all of which he could
boast In the way of erudition. He
therefore DGgdn course OF study in
a night school. which he attended four
evenings In the week. He Joined a
debating society. and became a men,
ber of various social and political or
ganizations in his district.
The corruption of the local politi-
clans precipitated revolt against the
party in power, and the voters of
Sans district held a meeting for the
purpose of nominating an alderman
to stand against an incumbent who
had betrayed his trust. Sans name
was proposed with cheers. He was
nominated by acclamation and escort
ed to the platform.
IF honesty is good policy In bust
ness. as they say 1t is," he declared.
1T should be good thing in politics.
Those who know me know that I'm
not politician, and those that don't
know me will mighty soon ind 1t out.
The only promise can make is that
n am elected-and calculate to be
lis that would no sooner think of
cheating my neighbors as an alder
man. than l would OF cheating them
in selling potatoes or cabbages."
Samuel Lemuel Rounds was tri-
umphantly elected alderman by the
largest majority ever cast for a candi
date In his district.

Sans rapidly increasing business
kept him away from home much of
the time. Mrs. Rounds was busy for
month with her wardrobe. She then
knitted socks for Sam. until he had a
supply sufficient to last lifetime. In
this crisis OF dearth of work, the
wife of a neighbor was taken Ill with
typhoid fever. There were five small
children in the family, and they were

How many yards does II take fer a
dress? Fifteen? All right. Well

What dye say. Mr.. Farnsworth! Is
It a bargain"
All right" groaned the merchant.
''It leaves me nothing. but I'll do 1t
as a favor. or course you want some
black lace for trimmings?"
Sure" replied Sam.
Something about twenty-five cents
a yard" suggested Mrs Rounds. She
felt Ike one who, having fallen from
grace. decides to go to perdition with
flying colors- No one in Rehoboth
ever had possessed black silk gown
with lace trimmings.
Here is something at thirty cents
yard which | can honesty recon-
mend said Mr.. Farnsworth. After
inspecting cheaper qualities, on which
Mr.. Farnsworth fixed higher prices.
Mrs. Rounds consented 10 the pur-
chase of eight yards. though Mr..
Farnsworth advised ten.
Sans crowning triumph was the
purchase of a black lace shawl, listed
at one hundred and fifty dollars. After
ten minutes of dickerlng with Mr..
Farusworth. Sam succeeded in acquir-
ing that treasure for sl125. Like
wise he bought a twenty-five dollar
bonnet for three and half dollars.
Haudkerchiefs, stockings, petticoats
and shoes fell into Sans hands at
ridiculous prices. until his mother,
with tears in her eyes. declared that
she would not consent to the purchase
of another article.
Mr.. Farnsworth presented an item
ized bill for s47.27, which Sam paid
from a generous roll OF greenbacks.
On the plea OF arranging for express
ing the goods TO bingham, Sam met
Mr. Farnsworth In his Office and gave
him a check for the balance of sii5.50.

CHAPTER xl.
Sans New York Trlumphs.

Ignoring his mothers protest, sam
employed a dressmaker and for two
weeks Mrs. Rounds found pleasure in
assisting the seamstress with her
work. Sam had acquainted the lat
ter with his secret and she agreed to
protect it. But his precautions were
In vain.
Like other crimes less difficult to
condone. this one was destined to be
revealed The preachers wife called
on Mrs. Rounds. and since they had
become very friendly. was shown the
new gown and the black lace shawl.
Whatever of envy arose in that good
woman's breast was lost in surprise
when Mrs. Rounds innocently mem
toned the price she had paid for the
silk.
"Sixty-fve cents a yard for that
silk" she exclaimed. why. my dear
Mrs. Rounds. you surely must be jest
ing. | had a dress like that when l
was married. and it cost six dollars a
yard. And that lace at thirty cents.

perhaps more. That beautiful shawl
must have cost more than~a hundred
dollars. l understand now she con-
tinued In some confusion. Your son
intended to surprise you. It was very
good of him and very clumsy in me to
reveal his secret"
When the visitor had departed Mrs.
Rounds looked with awe at the gar
ments spread out before her. A IA
miliar step sounded in the hallway,
and Sam entered, his homely face
rosy with smile.

embracing his mother. -Admirin' yer
