In Medway street who were employ

and all of them had the opportunity to be

the atray on the vacant lot. He felt that
something could be done to save the store
boys from doing wrong
Tom had spent the night in a cell at the
police station. and he would be taken into
his character so that he could not get another
place.
Il have it," exclaimed Bryan, just as he
reached the store.
But he did not continue his soliloquy long
enaugh to say what he had. Perhaps it was
plan to save the store boys in general
possibly one to save only Tom Lynch in par
ticular-
But the professors son believed that Tom
would have to pay the penalty of his crime
and he was not disposed to interfere with
the stern course of Justice. Something might
be done for him after he had paid that
penalty.

porter soon appeared.

clerks stared at him with a smile in the corner
Of the mouth.
Lamb went into the basement, but he soon
came up with Con to sweep out.
The big porter proceeded to cover the floor
with wet sawdust, and Lamb was sent behind
the counters with broom.
Bryan was at work at the great safe, the
doors being open so that the sweeper could
not see him. He was removing the dust from
the shelves.

out of the subject.
She could not stand it. Even to her infan-
