that two weeks Of Radville
had driven Duncan to desper-
alton. On the morning Of the
fifteenth day he Weakened in his room
at Miss Carpenters and lay for a time
abed staring vacantly at the gaudily
papered ceiling, not through .laziness
remaining on his back, but through
sheer inertia.
"Why," he reflected aloud, lit does
not seem reasonable. but I'm actually
looking forward to the delirious dissi-
patton of church next Sunday!
"Me?
IF Kellogg could only see me now!
I must have done something to deserve
this in my misspent life.
"Wonder if nothing ever happens
here. I'd give a whole lot, if had
it, for a good rousing fire on Main
street.-the Bigelow House for choice.
"And it's got me to the point of
drooling to myself. like those fellows
you read about who get lost in the
desert.
"Come! Get out of this. And. my
boy. remember to count that day lost
whose low descending sun sees moth
ing accomplished, nothing DONE
probably m1squoted, at that"
Suddenly he rose and dressed.
He was late at the breakfast and
silent and reserved throughout that
meal. Poor Miss Carpenter thought
chair. purring with solicitude that
almost maddened him. AS soon as pos
sible he made his escape from the
house.
