THE SIGNATURE.

George Townley began to collect his thoughts. Though he was a man of middle age 1t was the first time in his life that he had travelled f1rst-class. Even now he had not got a first-class ticket, but he realized with satisfaction that at least, if he chose, could afford to pay for one at the other end. He determined that, even if the tickets were not collected till the train got to London, he would be honest and say first" instead of "third' or second" For now he could afford to be honest.
 Complacently he stroked his full black beard, His beard it was, not by the gift of nature but by purchase from a shop. Complacently he regarded the new Russia leather Gladstone bag, with the initials c. T. neatly painted on it. George Townley was his name, not by baptism and inheritance, but by chance selection and fraud.
 Up to last Tuesday Josiah Broad hurst, though only in a small way of business, had been a highly respected citizen in a large country town, a church warden and the treasurer of half dozen charitable institutions and mutual insurance societies. Now the rector of that country town was be- moaning the loss of the fund collected for the repair of the church roof; many of his flock were staring vacantly be- fore them, wondering why thieves and hypocrites should prosper, while honest and pious men suddenly lost the sav- ings of ten, thirty and fifty years hard work; the widows and orphans and the aged poor were beginning to realize that after all the workbouse must be their home.
 One and all, loudly or silently, were praying for the return of that long, faced, clean shaven hypocrite, Josiah Broadhurst. And George Townley, laughing in his great black beard over the thought of their angry helplessness, he thought of their angry llelplessness, was travelling up to London in Josiah Broadhurst S stead. The train was an express due to ar- rive in just over the hour. Its motion was soothing, the cushins were soft. Presently he dozed. Only for minute or two. Then he awoke, and when he awoke he was afraid.
 Afraid-horribly afraid! For the last six years he had only one object in life ito be rich and in order to obtain that object he had decided to defy all DOW CTS human and divine. He had at- tained it; about his person and in his big he carried eSO,0o, his by right of scheming, energy and stony hearted ness. And now that he had obtained it
