Paul went out into the streets disap-
pointed, hurt, almost bitter against
Bob. Poor Paul! He could not know
that Bob, swayed by a new born
shame and self distrust-yes, self dis
trust-had refused the loan only that
he might never be tempted to use the
obligation as a club.
And that day fate-Murchell would
have said the fo~rce-busily interested
in a greater than Paul, led him into
dangerous paths. For when he reach

guided him past the First National
bank, which, as all the city knows. is
controlled by the Sanger interests.

to a stop In front Of the bank. Sanger

Paul laughed rather shamefacedly,
"I'm going to, but my limit isn't very

"Why don't you borrow and plungeT

Sanger sent three beautiful smoke
