He was a throat specialist, but his

Judges say that Deane might have tax

Of the time and have made money by
the bushel. but he disliked singing for
pay. and he especially. fervently, IA
natically. disliked notoriety. anything
whatever that could be called adver-
tising. He had sung chiefly in church
choirs and very select concerts and
had marvelously succeeded In conceal
ing the fact that he was one of the
favorite children OF Apollo.
Upon his return from Germany he
went to his native town OF Eddington,
in Connecticut. where he remained

but his salary as tenor in a New Haven
church choir constituted more than
half his income
The Kendalls were among the few
people In Eddington who had any
money. but they never had throat trou
bles. These seemed to occur among
the poor only. Elsa Kendall was called
the prettiest girl in the town. and she
was the heiress also. To pay court to
her was perhaps the only worldly wise
thing that Sydney Deane did in his
three years residence in Eddington,
but Elsa Kendall grew from eighteen
to twenty-one seeing Deane almost
daily except for her own brief alb
sences from the town. and she never
knew the nature Of his sentiments to-
ward her.
In the early days she fancied herself
in love with him. Then she was his
friend. adoring only his voice. and at
last she came to despise him Just lit
