Harrison by the year, month, day and

The directors of the bank met and
adopted resolutions lamenting the
death of their late president, passed the
leadership on to the first vice president
and speedily adjourned. The question
of admitting Monty to the directory
was brought up and discussed, but it
was left for time to settle.
One of the directors was Colonel
Prentiss Drew, the railroad mag
nate" of the newspapers. He had
shown a fondness for young Mr.. Brew
ster, and Monty had been a frequent
visitor at his house. Colonel Drew
called him my dear boy,n and Monty
called him "a bully old chap though
not in his presence. But the existence
of Miss Barbara Drew may have had
something to do with the feeling be-
tween the two men.
AS he left the directors room on the
afternoon of the meeting Colonel Drew
came up to Monty, who had notified
the officers of the bank that he was
leaving.
"Ah, my dear boy" said the colonel,
shaking the young mans hand warmly,
''now you have a chance to show what
sou can do. You have a fortune, and,
with judgment, you ought to be able
10 triple it. If 1 can help you in any
way, come and see me-"
Monty thanked him.
"You1l be bored to death by b ratt

money" continued the colonel. Don't
listen to any of them. Take your time.
You'll have n new chance to make
money every day of your life, so go
slowly. I'd have been rich years and
years ago if I'd had sense enough to
run away from promoters. They'll all
try to get a whack at your money.

obviously. At last he climbed into Il

4 L quiet. old fashioned home ss
his own. The house had once been her
grandfather's. and it was one of the
pIUncurp IN rnar part or tie town. =.
was there she was born, In Its quaint
old parlOr she was married, and all her
girlhood, her brief welded life and her
widowhood were connected with it.
Mrs. Gray and Montgomery's mother
had been schoolmates and playmates,
and their friendship endured. When
old Edwin Peter Brewster looked about
for a place to house his orphaned grand
son, Mrs. Gray begged him to let her
care for the little fellow. He was three
years older than her Margaret, and the
children grew up as brother and sis
ter. Mr.. Brewster was generous in
providing for the boy. While he was
away at college, spending money in a
manner that caused the old gentleman
to marvel at his own liberality, Mrs.
Gray was well paid for the unused but
well kept apartments, and there never
was a murmur of complaint from Ed
win Peter Brewster He was hard, but
he was not niggardly.
1t had been something of a struggle
for Mrs. Gray to make both ends meet.
The property in Fortieth street was
her only possession. But little money
had come to her at her husbands
death, and an unfortunate speculation
Of his had swept away all that had
fallen to her from her father, the late
Judge Merriweather. For years she
kept the old home unincumbered,
teaching French and English until
Margaret was we'll into her GEMS. The
girl was sent to II of the good old
boarding schools on the Hudson and
came out well prepared to help her
mother in the battle to keep the wolf
down and appearances up. Margaret
was rich in friendships, and pride
alone stood between her and the adj
vantages they offered. Good looking,
bright and cheerful, she knew NJ natu-
raj privations. With a heart as light
and joyous as a May morning she
faced adversely al though it were a
pleasure, and no one would have sus-
pected that even for a moment her
courage wavered.
Now that Brewster had come into
his splendid fortune he could conceive
nc greater delight than to share it
with them. To walk into the little
drawing room and serenely lay large
sums before them as their own seemed
such a natural proceeding that he re-
fused to see an obstacle. But he knew
it was there. The proffer Of such a
gift to Mrs. Gray would mean a
wound to the pride inherited from
naughty generations of men sufficient
unto themselves. There was a small
but troublesome mortgage ON the
house, a matter of two or three thou
sand dollars, and Brewster tried to
evolve a plan by which he could as
sumo the burden without giving deep
and lasting offense. A hundred wild
designs had come to him, but they
were quickly relegated to the growing
heap of subterfuges and pretexts con-
demned by his tenderness for the pride
