Basing calculations on the estimate
that the number of American tourists
in Europe in season is 100000 and
that the average individual expendi-
ture by these tourists is $3.50, some
one has easily figured that about $685.
100000 of American money is spent
abroad in the course of a season; and
this does not include the cost Of steam
ship tickets. Bankers who handle the
letters of credit for wealthy Ameri-
can tourists are quoted to the effect
that $4,000 is fair average for the
value of these letters, says the Man
chester Union. Among tourists of the
wealthy class, says the report, it is
common to place from $4,000 to $751;
600 in the hands Of the bankers, and,
as rule, fully two-thirds of the
amount is drawn. Possibly the major
premise Of this main proposition has
been Overdrawn; possibly the minor
premise; possibly both-and possibly
neither. In any event, it must be ad
mitted that $225, 100000 is a tremen-
dous sum of American money to be
taken tC Europe and left there in q
single season.

fashioned whisky cocktail and followed it
with another, drinking them standing at the
bar. SARAH" was a Miss La Fetra, of
dubious career, whose friendship with Mar
tin Hall, both in the city and at the State
Capital was a matter of common comment.
The operator in the Rutland Building did
not remember any such person calling for
number. As few women used that exchange,
she would have been likely to recall it.

his hotel, turned in by people who always

Chester Kent aloud, and began to whistle

upon a black cloudbank. From its heart
there darted fork of lightning. The tele-

Naylor dropped it, and crumpled, as thesci

Then he dropped on his knees in the booth
and felt at the flooring, with nervous, eager
fingers. Outside Chalmers, horrorstricken,
was muttering:
They've done it! They've killed him!
Killed the Tenpenny NALL"
There was no room for doubt. The hard,
fierce little man was as dead as his proto-
type. With deep breath Chalmers laid
the corpse down and stepped across it to the
booth.

al want nv child!' returned Aaron dog
gedly 81 want her before it's too late!'
At the sound of the raised voices in the
hallway, score of guests emerged from the
reception room and gathered in puzzled sur
prise about the stranger. Through this be-
wildered crowd a girl and a man made lane
for themselves. Aaron saw them and felt
painful contraction of the heart He was
about to advance toward the GIRL but re-
straining hand drew him back and hoarse
voice whispered into his ear:
Look how happy she is! Have you the
heart to do it?'
Before Aaron was able to move forward
the girl had planted herself squarely before
him "Why, Mr.. Moscowitz, how do you
dor" she asked in subdued voice, indicative
of good breeding. What brings you here?'
The music of that voice thrilled through
him, stihed the outburst that was on his lips
He felt himself suddenly subdued by deli
cious inf fence, as if divine light had re-
vealed itself before his vision.
Aaron moved toward the door; but re-
treat was cut off by dozen men and women.
Their eyes were on him, eagerly, expectantly
He recognized the necessity of saying some
thing, in explanation OF his presence at this
wedding breakfast. He looked appealingly
toward Rushmore; but the latter returned
only frozen, frightened stare.

again broke the stiffness.
FOR an instant Aaron hesitated; then he

face aglow with new happiness. She came
forward and extended a hand to Aaron.

in Rushmore, linking his arm in Aaron
and leading him toward the reception room.

Instruction of feeling When he had finished,
the old man turned fercely on him.
"And you, the president of the synagogue,
are in doubt" he cried with biting irony.
@You-a father! After twenty years, God
sent your daughter to you, and you don t

pose in that meeting at your office-see that

"But how-how?" demanded Aaron.
"Avow your fatherhood and stop the mar
rage Goat OnCel
Fired by the thought of divine forgive
ness and the more immediate possibility OF
reunion with his daughter, Aaron darted out
of the house. The newspapers had kept him
informed of the arrangements for the we'd
ding and he made straight for the church.
On the steps he encountered Goldsmith, who
had missed his partner and OWNED the pur-
pose of his hasty departure from the office.
"Thank God you're too late." he ex-
claimed, Selling Aaron's arm. "The cere-
n1ony is over, and the guests have left
"But there's feast at the house, will

Goldsmith tried desperately to hold him
to you?" he fired at him. "For bringing shame
and unhappiness on her, God will punish you

But Aaron tore himself away and was run
ming blindly in the direction of the bride S
home When he arrived there, the last of
the carriages were pouring a steady stream
into the house Aaron eluded the butler and
passed into the hallway of the mansion.
Aaron stepped awkwardly into bank of
ferns near the foot of the stairs. When he
looked up it was to meet the frightened eyes
of man and a woman, both gray haired and
with faces heavily lined. On beholding his
strange figure among the leaves and flowers,
they recoiled as from sudden apparition.
