She did not answer, but took up her
lamp and went to her room, her form
shaking with emotion.
When there, she sat down, still and
quiet now, and thought deeply. Then
the sounds of violin stole across the
fields and reached her, though family.
But she did not raise her window for
moment, as she had sometimes done.
She sat still and listened till the sound

"Yes, but no one else ought to suf

"Vane," said his wife. will you tell

The children had now retired and
the three sat alone together
Il went on business. Did | not tell
you so?"
"Yes, you told me so; but that does
not explain why you went away every

that there was a secret reason for

tone:

her words, but was calm in a moment,
and answered reasonably and kindly.
''Is not the defect in you, Constance? ?
| see none in myself. | feel the same
toward you. 1t is you who are chang

He arose and looked for his hat and
gloves.
Il will go to the hotel for the pres

She bowed her head and murmured
something about changes to be
made"

soon as he was gone.

1t is as well. perhaps, that the inyesti-
CATION should be made public. | wish
you would tell me exactly how matters
stand at the bank"
A succinct statement was made by
the united accounts of the president
and trustees, and by young Osborn,
whose position at the bank was nomi-
nally that of teller. He was even
shown the altered notes, the letter
thrust under the presidents door, and
MIR. Simon Lows letter in regard to
Hamilton's having presented one of
them to the National Bank in Boston.
What could have been harder to bear
than this If he were guilty? they
thought, as they watched him gravely
studying the notes and letters.
"The forgery was cleverly done" he
said, handing them back. II could
never have detected it any more than
Low did, and Low is above suspicion,
of course. No doubt the matter is
just as he states it. A man resem-
bling me, doubtless, presented the
note"
But it was you who came to the
bank, anyway"
1t was Tony who spoke, at first
seemingly with a little doubt clinging
to his mind. But the anyway he
brought out boldly, almost defiantly,
as he looked at MIR. Hamilton, who for
moment lost his composure. He did
not answer at once, and when he did
il was in hesitating way.
81 cannot dispute you, Tony. Would
to Heaven | could But consider this.
II il was | who came there, should |
not have come home? would not my
footsteps have unconsciously brought
me to my own door,"
perhaps not" said Mr.. Taylor, a
quiet man who had not before spoken.
Il have read of instances of dual life
where everything is changed. Mem
ory Is a thing apart from conscious
ness. II is said to be a function of
matter to be impressed with its own
actions. When an action has been re-
peated many times, or even once,
strongly, the memory of it becomes
stamped upon little cell of the brain,
and the stamp dominates the cell.
When the stimulant again comes. the
cell reacts as 1t formerly has fone.
Now here comes the point IN question.
When the stimulant fails, from over
work or worry or other powerful
causes, the cell is useless, the memory
is gone, while other cells continue ac-
tive, perhaps more so than formerly"
Science as applied to bank rob
berry was something new and startling
to the others. What might not man
do under these conditions? Atavism
was less strange to consider. And yet
wac It not true that human reason was
often insufficient TO set against the
commonest delinquency? The gentle
men sitting about the table were non
plussed, all but Mr.. Taylor, who had
faith in his theory. He, evidently, be-
lieved Mr.. Hamilton's statement.
But" said he, ''in the present state
of society there are no provisions
made for this sort of lapse. outside Of

checked himself and said no more,
while Constance sat idly turning over
the leaves of book until she saw the
bank officers coming up the street
Then she arose to go.
President Hartwell and eight trus-
tees, with Tony Osborn, soon entered.
The new cashier, or treasurer, was not
present.
Mr.. Ramllton's manner was very
cordial and easy. Well as the several
gentlemen thought they knew him,
they were not prepared for so much
composure and freedom from nervous
ness. A rumor of lost identity as the
sequel of his mysterious absence had
already reached them, early as 1t was
in the day; and they were, therefore,
prepared to listen without Interrupt
tions or exclamations, until he had
finished the tale up to the awakening
of his dormant perceptive faculties,
which had occurred, he said, but
short time previous to his return.
There was a silence of many seconds
ere any one spoke. AT last Mr.. Hart

that there was, but it was an awkward
thing to say to man in his own
house.
Mr.. Hamilton gave start.

LIKED TO BE DUNNED.
Debtor by No Means Displeased at
Creditors Importantly.

About year ago a junior member
of prominent firm of lawyers made
departure from his usual line and
undertook to collect a debt due a
downtown publisher. The amount in
dispute was $4,000. 1t had been hang
ing fire for a long while, and there
seemed very little chance for ever col
lecting it.
'Tve tried every way | can think
Of" said the publisher. Maybe you
can scare the fellow into paying up.
If you can, I'll give you half you col
lect."
The lawyer took the case and finally
collected the money. Then came a
tussle with the publisher, who failed
to live up to his end of the agreement.
He paid half of the one thousand dol
lar fee, as promised, but withheld the
remaining $500. For the first two
months the lawyers efforts toward
settlement were conducted in digni-
fled manner. Conservative methods
proving unavailing, he resorted to
system of petty annoyance. Day after
day his errand boy was despatched to
the publishers office with written or
verbal request to settle the account.
For four months this persecution con-
tinued, but at last there came day
when in the rush of business the law
yer neglected thus to jog the delin-
quent's memory. Late in the after
noon he was reminded of the cessation
of hostilities in an unexpected manner.
Into his private Office. where he was
engaged in a serious consultation,
there penetrated red-headed, wide
eyed boy.
Say" piped the youngster, I'm
from Mr.. Blank, the publisher. He
wants to know why your boy amt
been around to-day to dun him for that
$500 he owes you."-New York Herald.
