At last he reached the comparative
seclusion of the Embankment and
stood for a moment to gaze ffxedly
at the swirling glinting river.
"Not here he muttered aloud. II

He trudged steadily away through
Queen Victoria street, Cornhill, Lead
entail street. and so on to Johnson's
News, in the Mile End road. Pausing
at a marine store dealers shop kept
by an army pensioner. an Irishman,
with whom he had slight acouaint-
ance, he entered. An elderly man was
laboriously reading a paper of the pre-
ceding days date.
GOOD evening, Mr.. O'Brien." he
said. Can you oblige me with a
piece of rope? I want a strong piece
about three or four yards In length.

"Faix, / dunno. They use nails on
the crates mostly nowadays. If have

Philips story was known in that
humble locality. and the old soldier
sympathized with the boy. He has
rale spunk an no mistake" was his
verdict when others said Philip was
proud and overbearing. O'Brien NOV
ed automatically about the squalid
shop. At last he found some portion
of clothesline.
"will that do?" he inquired.
Philip tested it with vigorous pull
ing against his knee.
"Excellently," he said. LET me pay
you for It."

diction. The policeman was puzzled.
He instantly understood the facts, but
dared not browbeat an earl.
"You do not bring any charge against
him, my lord 7" he said.
But his lordship deigned no reply.
He told the coachman to arrange for
the removal of the carriage, grasped
his niece by the arm and led her, still
protesting, into the house.
The policeman saw the bundle Of
papers scattered over the roadway and
near them the partly eaten bun. After
4 wrench at his garments he produced
a penny.

another bun and be of. It's a good
Job for you the young lady spoke up
the way she did"
"She merely told the truth. That
man was a liar"
Refusing the profrered penny. the
boy turned on his heel. The policeman
looked after him.
That's a queer KID" he thought.
Talked like a regular young gent. I
wonder why be is selling papers. Poor
lad! He lost bob's worth at least,
and small thanks he got for it,"
Passing out of the square by the
erst eastward street, Philip Arson,
with his head erect and hands clinched
in his pockets, strobe onward at a
rapid pace. The lightning was less
frequent now, and the thunder was
dying away in sullen rumblings. He
was wet and hungry, yet, although he
had three halfpence, the remaining
balance of the only sales effected. that
evening, he passed many shops where
he could have bought food.
In Piccadilly. where the cessation Of
the storm created a rush of traffic, he
was nearly run over by reason of his
own carelessness and received slash
from a whip, accompanied by loud
oath from an angry cabman. He shiy-

Crossing Trafalgar square. he plunged

ton of age has nothing to do with it
provided the man is competent. The
chances are that experience will be
found in older men. But older men
must be paid.
AS for young men as lawyers there
have been many capable ones. The
NEST conspicuous figure was Henry
Clay who was as a young lawyer so
successful that it was said that no
murderer. ever defended by Clay was

Had he paid the fees which sec
ial attorneys could claim under
the Democratic systemn they
would have consumed $40, 5000
of the 01G,O42.1O collected.
As the revenue from this tax
goes into the school funl every

tors to special attorneys appoint

taken from the school fund, as
the law makes no provision for

In a letter written several
weeks ago by President Roose-
welt, he said:
To fail to elect Mr., Taft would
be a calamity to the country /;
it would be folly. while electing
him, yet at the same time to
elect a Congress hostile to him, a
Congress which under the influ-
ence OF partisan leadership would
be certain to thwart AMI bafle
him on every possible occasion.
To elect Mr., Taft, and at the
same time elect a Congress p,edg
ed to support him, IL the only
way in which to perretuate
the policy OF the Government as
now carried on. I feel that all
the aid that can be given to this
policy by every good citizen
should be given; for this is far
more than a merely partisan
matter.
