; self as he spoke. HE can't work now;
he's too old. The game as he knew 1t

Handler also had resumed his seat,
and he leaned over his desk and said
significantly: $50 you're afraid Valen-
tine will get a new trial, ell? There's
some class to Valentine. Have a
smoke" The prison master held out
a box of perfectos, from which Doyle
gratefully extracted weed.
Thanks" mumbled the detective.
This Valentine Is the only high class
crook l ever knew that | couldn't
reach and put away for keeps. There's
something Of a mystery about him.
He'd get away with the Ratiies game
in high society in a walk. The swell
danes would go daffy over his good
looks and his tony manners and his
pleasing voice Yet he has trailed
! along with the toughest gang in the
business" Doyle paused. then said,
"And yet he says he is innocent, sup

EYES," put in Handler, leaning com
fortably in his chair. "Said so last
time I talked with him. This prison is
! killing him. He doesn't like it. He
can't stand it. His nerves will stick
out through his skin if they jump
much more"
"He's the one fellow I think this
: life would cure. He's a wonder"
"At safes, you mean," was Han
dler's sarcastic rejoinder.
Little did the warden and the detec-
tive realize as they sat and schemed
to bring about the further and COM
plete ruin Of Jimmy Valentine that
there's a divinity that shapes our
ends, rough hew them how we WILL"
and this influence is not denied to
those who anguish forlorn and hope
less in prison cells.
Little did they know that it might
be Jimmy Valentine, No. 1889. who
was to teach them that the soul Of a
man is an unquenchable spark that
not even years Of oppression and
degradation can lastingly dim when
! the spirit wills that they shall not.
And just now there came a knocking
at the warden's door that portended
much for No 1889.
The wardens secretary went to the
door opening from the Office into a
waiting room where visitors were re-

CHAPTER l.

CHAPTER l.
THE warden's Office in Sing Sing
prison is not pleasant spot Ill
which to linger, whether you
may be innocent or whether
guilty Of a crime. And no more reas-
surfing could be termed the abrupt,
dominating parsonage who presided
over the dismal destinieS Of the office
and institution when occurred the
events chronicled in this narrative.
That a man fated by his choice Of
occupation to daily associate intimate
" with criminals Of high and low de-
gree and to come constantly in per-
sonal contact with all the misery and
depravity going to form the life of a
states prison-that a man so fateu
should find exquisite enjoyment In ac-
centuating these depressing conditions
is surely contradiction Of what ordi-
narily would be expected. Humans OF
normal mold are generally occupied In
ameliorating the evils and annoyances
of their surroundings. That is natures
way. Not so with Warden Handler.
That which is bad can be made to be
worse. Innocence can be shown to be
guilt-with the aid Of trained wit
nesses. Repentance is always insin-
cere, and if it is not it can be made
so. A murderer should be made to re-
member always his ignominy. A thief
should be reminded of his amateurish
clumsiness which led him into the
clutches of the central Office men.
That was Handlers philosophy. That
was Handlers way.
And underlying all his petty oppres-
sion and gross inhumanity was a
cause, deep rooted in q system of bis
own and of a race Of Jail keepers that
went before him. Exposure? Re-
moval? Bah! He had considered all
that. And, If worse came to worse.

INDIGESTION in Hoos,

When a hog has indigestion change
its diet to lighter feed at once and If
possible put it on grass. A slop OF mid
dlings, milk, bran, very little corn
meal and fiaxseed meal is generally
good to give, to which limewater Is
added at the rate of one ounce per
quarter at each meal. When the ami
NAL is doing well again the limewater
by degrees may be discarded. Another
important thing Is to see that the slop
