He was preoccupied and puzzled, and more than one of his old associates. re ceiving a distant nod in passing. re- eentfully concluded that his wealth was beginning ts change him. His brain was so full of statistics, figures and computations that It whirled dig ally. and once he narrowly escaped be- ing run down by A street car. He dined alone at a small French restaurant in one of the side streets. The waite- marveIed at the amount of black coffee the young man consumed and lookel hurt when he did not touch the qusil and lettuce.
 That night the little table in his room st Mrs. Grsy's was filtered with scraps Of pad paper. each covered with an incomprehensible maze Of figures. Aft CT dinner he had goae to bis own rooms. forgetting thai he lived on Fifth avenue. Until long after midnight he smoked and calculated and dreamed. For the first time the immeasity Hs that million thrust itself upon him. If On that very day.

CHAPTER v,

A came to Brewster. All his
 life had been spent in won ~ \ dering how to get enough money to pay his bills, and it had not Soccurred to him that it night be as difficult to spend as to acquire wealth. The thought staggered him for mo ment. Then he cried triumphantly. 'T can decline to accept grandfather's mil lion"
 ' "You cannot decline to accept what is already yours. I understand that the money has been paid to you by MT. Buskirk. You have million dollars MT. Bewster, and it cannot be denied.n
 You are right" agreed Montgomery -dejectedly. Really, Mir. Grant, this proposition is too much for me. If you aren't required to give an immediate answer I want to think it over. It sounds like dream"
 Tt is no dream, Mir Brewster" smil- ed the lawyer You are face to face with an amazing reality. Come in to- morrow morning and see me again. Think it over; study 1t out. Remem- Der the conditions of the will and the conditions that confront you In the meantime shall write to Mir Jones' the executor, and learn from him just what he expects you to do in order to carry out his own conception of the terms of your uncle's will"
 Don't write, Mir. Grant; telegraph. And ask him to wire his reply. A year is not very long in an affair of this kind" A moment later he added: Hang these family feuds. Why couldn't Uncle James have relented bit? He brings endless trouble on my 1 innocent head just because of row before was born
 He was strange man. As rule, one does not carry grudges quite so far But that is neither here nor there. His will is law in this case''
 Suppose I succeed in spending all but a thousand dollars before the 23d of next September, I'd lose the seven millions and be the next thing to pauper. That wouldn't be quite like getting my moneys worth
 Ut is problem, my boy. Think 1t over very seriously before you come to decision one way or the other In the meantime we can establish beyond . doubt the accuracy of this inven- tory"
 By all means go ahead, and please urge Mir. Jones not to be too hard OF me. I believe I'll risk it if the restric- tions are not too severe. But if Jones has puritanical instincts I might as well give up hope and be satisfied with what have.'
 MT. Jones is very far from what you'd call puritanical, but he is in tensely practical and clear headed. He will undoubtedly require you to keep an expense account and to show some sort of receipt for every dollar you disburse."
 Good Lord Itemize?" |.
 ''In general way, I presume.
 ''I'll have to employ an army of spendthrifts to devise ways and means for profligacy."
 You forget the item which restraints you from taking anybody into your confidence concerning this matter. Think 1t over. It may not be so diffi. cult after nights sleep"
 If it isn't too difficult to get the nights sleep ...
 All the rest of the day Brewster wandered about as one in dream.

Lighting the candles, which were more easily managed. he found, than lamps and much more costly. he thoughtfully and religiously calculated his expenses for the day. Hopper Harrison and Elcn Gardner had the receipts for all mon eys spent. and Joe Bragdon was keep ing an official report, but the chief. as they called him. could not go to sleep until he was satisfied in his own mind that he was keeping up the aver age. For the first two weeks it had been easy-in fact. he seemed to have quite a comfortable lead in the race He had spent almost s100.OO0 in the fortnight. but he realized that the greater part of it had gone into the yearly and not the daily expense ac- count.

A Change in Business All Around

Was your sign we'll put up? If
not where did you find it this
morning? The ghostly visitation
seemed to slight no man, and
from the conglomeration of sign
boards in evidence this morning
there was quite change in bust
ness all around. THE HERALD
sign adorned the front of Will
mans drug store, and we charged
the proprietor of that pharmacy
with trying to fitch our good
name, but he strenuously denied
the charge. A small oval sign
graced the front of THE HERALD
office, upon which were the cabal-
istic words: Drink Echo Springs
Whisky" whatever that means.
Weller's saloon sign was in front
of the Miller Hotel, and the Board
of Trade sign was in front of
Cr.xelT 5 saloon. The dummy
whisky sign which usually greets
the passers by at CriXell's front
door, was standing in the middle
of the street near the market. and
a belated haCkman was much put
out because the man would not get
out of the way. The dummy bore
the name of one of our popular
policemen Many other changes
too numerous to mention were
made, and it vas no uncommon
sight this morning to see men in
every direction bearing their signs
back to their usual resting places,
which reminded one of the walk
ing advei jisements usually seen in
the comic supplements of our Sun
day periodicals.
No one seemed to resent the
joke, all agreeing that as the
ghosts walk but once in twelve
months, their weird and uncanny
doings might be regarded with
degree of leniency.
