on his handkerchief.

anything worth doing which could be
accomplished easily. He had often seen
his most careful plans miscarry, but
never with out learning the reason, and
with him the discovery of an error re-
vealed the remedy. His success was
built upon that solid concrete of mis-
takes, surprises, and corrections which
we call experience.
1t was with no novel sensations, then,
that Mr.. Harlan returned to his house,
and seating himself in the easy-chair
OF his library proceeded to work out
the secret of is failure with John Ken
nard, for at the outset he admitted he
had failed completely. There was no
necessity for deceiying himself. He
and his easy-chair had solved many
another puzzle, remedied many another
mistake. II was ten o'clock-still
early In the evening for Joshua Har-
Ian. He rang the bell, ordered the
butler to bring whisky and soda, and
then dismissed him for the night.
Mr. Harlan filed a long glass with
whisky and soda and began working
at the problem.
Who and what was this Kennard,
anyway? A man who had found his
business prepared and ready for his
hand, who had never had to work his
way up or experience setback and
failure. 1t had all been such plain sail
ing that he had had leisure to theorize
and indulge his theories, coddling his
workmen and playing with economic
nostrums until the sentimentalist in
him was satisfied and his self-sufii-
one year of real competition with no
nonsense about 1t, and the superior
smile would be on the other side of
his mouth. Perhaps Trundell could be
made to see this yet, and, II SO, the
amateur economist might have his pet
theories tested and his cut-and-dried
systems disarranged in way he little
dreamed of. He had been inclined to
work with rather than against young
Kennard, but II that individual
thought the man who engineered the
Milling Companies deal ridiculous"
II was plain they were an ill-assorted
couple. If
Mr.. Harlan started as he heard the
door-bell ring, and realized as he rose
TO answer the summons for the first
time In many years he had worked
himself into quite temper.
The butler had not yet retired, and
when hts master reached the hall the
man handed him card with the name
Peter McMannis printed in fourishe ed
script.
Show him in and then 60 to bed,
Perkins. I'll close up"
Mr.. Harlan threw himself into his
chair with muttered oath. 1T q cigar

was still reading when his visitor was
ushered in. and curt nod was all the
greeting be vouchasfed.

again.

Grand Central station is apt to typify
the monotony OF life and suggest its
littleness. 1t is always the same.
Mingle with IL to-day and return an
hour, a day, month, year, ten years
later, and you will find the same peo-
pie surrounding and jostling you.
Some face you may look for in vain,
some voice may fail to greet you-
that often happens in crowds-but are
they lost or are you?
Kennard hurried across the muddy
floor, lodged through the nearest exit,
raced to the barrier, and reached it
Just as the iron gate rolled to and bit
its lock with vicious snap.

ed the official, mechanically.
The painting passenger dropped his
heavy bag with groan and looked at
his watch.
There was half an hour to wait, so
he sauntered back to the telegraph Of
fee and sent message to Mrs. Par
sons at Mamaroneck, saying he had
missed his train. II should have been
punctually late, a. usual, but some
thing had "crisscrossed his luck" that
day, he admitted to himself, as he
showed his bag under one of the long
benches and settled down to sit 1t out
BY the time his train started Ken
nard had almost recovered his droop-
ing spirits. and when the lights of
the Mamaroneck station twinkled
through the haze, not even the damp
fog and chilly atmosphere served to
depress him.
Mrs. Parsons carriage was not to be
seen in the cluster of vehicles near
the platform, and Kennard picked his
way among the traps and teams, peer
ing closely at the half-hidden drivers
But one by one they drove off, and
when Kennard reached the station
again, all the cabs had also disap-
peared, and he faced the prospect of
walking to his destination, Juggling a
heavy bag. Resigning himself to this
fate, he started down the road, in the
wake OF low dog cart disappearing
slowly into the fog. Hoping against
suit, and was soon rewarded by recog-
nizing Carroll Parsons astrakhan coat
and furs. With cheerful halloo he
ran up behind the cart, tossed in his
bag, and swung himself into the seat
beside the girl.
We'll met, CARROLL" he exclaimed
IF you were trying to abandon me,
had a narrow escape"
He grasped the girls disengaged
hand in both of his and shook 1t
warmly.
She laughed pleasantly In answer as
the pony started forward at a brisk
pace, striking sparks from the fiinty
road.
We'll, how are you?" he continued.
Pm terribly glad to see you. You
don't know how glad. I've been in
the worst possible temper all day. and
IL II hadn't been for the thought of
coming here tonight, believe I'd have
assassinated half dozen people As
1t is. there are probably more than
that number who'd like to assassinate
me. 1t was mighty friendly of you to
meet me a night like this" he ran on.
especially after I'd missed my train,
At first thought you hadn't come. and
was starting to walk when l saw you.
Hope you haven't left house full Of
company. I'm afraid you have. But
