Billy held it as almost certainty
that this was a note which had been
dropped by the man who I'd been
hurt. Probably it had been dislodged
from his pocket when he fell and had
remained caught In his clothing while
he dragged himself to the curb. So far
as Billy could judge, it was precisely
in the right spot to fit this hypothesis.
He put the note into his pocket and
the next moment had forgotten it.
Sundays papers contained no men
ton Of the accident to Mr.. Mousoud.
The city directory did not contain his
name. In Monday mornings papers
Billy placed small advertisement
among the Lost and Found" but
there was no response. All inquiries
failed, and In the course Of the week
Billy put the note away in drawer
of his writing table and forgot it. Far
more pressing matters claimed his at
tentiOn. Dorothy was called to her
home In the west and a narrowing
fear tormented Billy that, despite the
positive commands that he had laid
upon her, she had gone to get money
for the magazine. Meanwhile the
scheme boiled.
One afternoon. following confer
ence upon the all important topic, Billy
returned to his home so crazed with
enthusiasm that. happening to find the
lean. old serving maid busting his
room, he began to deliver an Grafton
to her on the subject Of magazine pub
LEGATION. His eloquence produced an
unexpected effect, for the woman be-
came wildly excited and finally fell to
the floor in sort of fit. Then Billy
ran for the landlaGy. with whose as
sistance he carried the hysterical
servant to her room.

EFT had been a bad Saturday for
n Billy Allenwood. Somebody hadn't
come downtown that day. Some
body else, bookkeeping creature
for the other, had no authority to ad-
vance money on uncompleted serial
stories. Billy made the rounds, but
there was no money anywhere, and
when he went to take Dorothy Vincent
to dinner he had only So in his pocket.
Dorothy was an orphan and an heir
ess. She received a check on the first
Of every month, but, though there are
few characters so strong as not to be
affected by security and regularity of
income, Dorothy remained good bo-
hemian and as reckless with money as
you could wish your dearest friend to
be. She reveled In rich and dainty
fabrics, which she transformed by her
own art and labor into the most be-
witching garments. On this particular
evening she wore a tenderly exquisite
creation in a gray tone, and carried a
little gray purse which contained her
all, the sum Of IS cents. This purse
was intrusted to Billy's care.
A strange subject Of discussion oc-
cupied them at dinner and ON the way
to Dorothy's house Billy had an op-
portunity to join with two other men
in starting a magazine, of which he
was to be editor, but they stipulated
that he should contribute $1,000 to the
capital. Impossibility is not defined in
any dictionary SO adequately as by that
statement. Billy could not have raised
1,5O0 cranberries at dollar bushel,
but Dorothy could raise dollars, and
she insisted that she should be per-
mitted to disturb her meager patri-
mony to the extent required and be-
cone partner in the enterprise She
would lend the money to Billy and go
shares with him. To him, however, her
little fortune was the only redeeming
feature of q world otherwise Ill ordered
beyond the power of language to de
scribe. He knew what miseries she
thus escaped-few men knew better
than Billy-and he would sooner have
disturbed the law of gravitation winch
holds us to the world than have dis
lodged the anchor of Dorothy's safety.
He was telling her SO in very elo-
quent language as they strolled along.

gathering of a crowd. A man had
fallen from the platform of crowded
car and now sat on the curbstone,
dazed and bleeding. 1t seemed that
there had been an attempt to pick his
pocket and that the thief, detected,
had pushed his intended victim to the
street. AS usual, the car had gone on,
leaving only the most contradictory
rumors in its wake.
The man was under middle age and
of very prosperous appearance,
gentleman evidently. for he showed
himself superior to his mishap, even
though it had bereft him of a good
share of his consciousness. Before any

The Capitol's Cost Will Soon be
Known.


l. w. STRAYER, Staff Correspondent of Pitts
burg Gazette-Times
HARRISBURG, PA, Oct. ia com
plete and thorough investigation of
every official act of the capitol COM
mission and of public grounds and
buildings commission in connection
with the new state capitol will be made
by legislative committee. There is
sufficient authority for making this fiat
statement, although 10 member of the
state administration or of the legisla-
ture cares to take the responsibility of
saying so at this time. But sentiment
in this direction is so strong there is
no longer any doubt on the subject,
The investigation is sure to come,
but it will not be forced by the Demo
Gratis. 1t will be carried through at
the instance of Republicans who refuse
to lie under the charges and insinua-
tions of State Treasurer Berry and the
fusionists. Republican state officials
and Republican legislators believe the
new capitol was erected honestly and
that there was no graft in it. And
they feel the only way to prove this
beyond any reasonable doubt is by a
legislative investigation.
On the other hand if such investiga
tion should disclose crookedness Of any
sort, then the Republicans want the
crooks tagged and prosecuted, Gov.
Pennypacker and Attorney General
Carson stand pledged to the punish
meut of any guilty, man.
Hence the wild and unsupported
charges of Treasurer Berry upon the
stump amount to nothing. Within
three months the whole truth will be
known. If there has been overcharge,
fraud or substitution of inferior mater
ials in the capitol building the people
will know it. And if as Gov. Penny
packer and other members of the COM
monwealth believe, the work has been
done honestly and fairly, then Mr..
Berry will stand convicted of misrepre-
sentation and of uttering false state
ments for political effect

Dear Sir: Here's tale with three or
for tails to it.
Professor Irvine has an Academy,
Mercersburg, Penn. He paints the
floor in summer vacation. 1t used to
take 90 gallons of paint. There were
two paint stores there, and he used to
buy Gone year of one, next year of the
other) 80 gallons year after year.
Now he paints Devoc, GO gallons; and
the difference is saving of $3.50 year
H. c. Fallon was one Of those dealers,
good man; but he wouldn't take-up
Devoe: so we turned to the other, }. A.
Boyd. But Falion has found it neces-
sary to get good paiut to compete with
Devoe. He got one of the eight honest
pains. He has bi1 hardware store
and is doing an excellent hardware
business, but Boyd, Of course, has the
run on paint-he's little hardware
man.
We don't care how little or big man
is, if he wants good paint and is active
and sound.
