her the week afther landin' open It
and read what the writin' says"
"OPll foind her, sure" said Pat, and
with a last embrace he started of with
head erect at strapping pace down
the road
Maggie waited till he had gone to
point where she could see him through
an opfghg in the trees on the crest OF
a hill he turned and threw her kiss.
Firing up didn't trouble Pat bit; 1t
was when he reached the great city of
New York, where dollars as big as
cart wheels were rolling about in the
streets" that the real fight began. He
didn't happen to meet Maggie's cousin
Bridget, and, concluding that America
was, after all, too big country to
warrant a search for her, he put the
letter away. Indeed, he had no time
for anything but making his living.
He soon got Job, though small one,
and hadn't been in New York a month
before he cast off his threadbare suit
forever, DOMINIC new one in its
stead.
Pat spent a couple of years with
plumber learning the trade. The ap-
prentice was smart and not only be-
came a plumber, but boss plumber,
and four years after having landed set
up for himself.
Pat had great advantage I'm his
CHEEKY disposition. He became very
popular with his associates, and, since
popularity is an essential feature of
leadership, he became a leader I'm a
small way. A politician, percelving his
influence, took him up and made him
one of his lieutenants. Pat developed
fine political instincts. He had the art
of turning down all grumblers among
his adherents with that imperturbable
smile of his. This is power I'm poll
tics. II he was obliged to give four
plums to eight heelers, all of whom
had worked equally we'll "for the tick
ct" he would give four of them plum
men received n smile, an encomium
and promise for next time"
Pat did not forget Maggie. Several
times he made ready to send for her
but every time something happened to

that such n plan would be too great
waste of funds. So in the end Pat sent
her draft for plenty to buy her
