Ambrosial rills of pleasure;
Can Man desire, can Heaven bestoW
A more resplendant treasure?
Adorned with gems SO richly bright.

How grand In age, how fair in youth,
Are holy Friendship. Love and Truth.

this now led to a discussion between
| David and Rogers upon books. David
discovered that his employer had no use
for poetry, had a fair acquaintance with
fiction, and was much better read in
history and philosophy than himself.
In his unexcitable way, Rogers talked
well; at times his quietly uttered re-
marks were brilliant in their analysis,
and at times there came those quick,
caust1c thrusts of wit that go like a
| sword to the heart of pretense and false
ideas. He expressed himself with ease
in wide vocabulary, though many OF
the less common words he .mtspro-
nounced-a fault that was elu-
sively familiar to David; and always he
spoke In quiet, even tone that would
nave led casual hearer to believe that
ne was merely a cold mentality-that
he had not the fire of a SOUL, But
David had the feeling now, as he had
mad before and as he was often to have
again, that in looking into those glow
ing eyes he was looking into the crater
of volcano.
During this play of wits Kate could
only look silently on. She had known
that David was in education above the
level of her friends, but the side Of
himself he was now showing she had
not before seen. His richness where
she had nothing seemed to remove him
to an impossible distance. Her face
became drawn with sharp pain.
But presently the talk shifted from
books to life, and she forgot her des-
pair, her impressions were distinct and
decided, and her sentences seemed pieces
of her own vivid personality. The pres
ence of the two men inspired her:
David who thought he knew her, found
himself freshly surprised at the quick
ness and keenness of her mind, and
Rogers watched her little sparkling face
with more and more interest. She was
surprised at herself, too; talking on sub
jects of broader interest than personal
ities was a new experience to her, and
she discovered in herself powers never
before called out.

Synopsis of Chapters Already published

Rev. Philip Morton, head of St. Chris
topher's Mission, in New York, is found
dead. His friend, Dayir Aldrich' dlscov-
ers that Morton to silence blackmall-
ing woman. Lillian Drew, has taken
5000 from a charity fund. and that his
death was probably a case OF suicide.
David determines to keep the detalca-
tion secret at any cost So, when IL
is discovered that the s., 900 Is missing
Helen Chambers, daughter OF Alexander
Chambers, rich banker, being present
David declares that he himself took the
money.
Released after four years in prison, Da-
vid rents a room near st. Christopher $.
He finds that his sacrifice has not been
in vain SO far as Morton's memory Is
concerned. He meets strange neighpors-
drunken old Jimmy Morgan and ms
daughter, Kate, who calls on MIN anu anu
worms out Of him the fact that he mas
been in prison Kate Morgan reveals 10
David that she is herself professional
thief
one evening David surprises a young
thief in his room. The yOungster whose
name is tom was taking David's oyercoat
with the intention of pawning 1t. To
gether they, pawn the coat and buy food-
David takes Tom in as a ccmrade.
Soon afterward David falls Ill. Tom'
who promised to be honest, returns TO
the room one evening with the an
nouncement that he has secured job
and thereafter keeps David supplied with
comforts. But Tom has merely gone back
10 his stealing, and one afternoon he Is
money. The young woman, who proves
to be Helen Chambers, forces him to take
her TO his home and show her the SICK
brother whom, he said, he was caring for.
She recognizes in the sick man David AID
rich. 1t becomes evident that she thinks
he has put Tom up to stealing. She is
about to go when Kate Morgan enters.
David introduces the two women and they
leave together.
Recovering from his sickness, David re-
news the search for work. but always
his record presses him down, and on New
Year Eve he is in the depths Of despair.
At this crises he accepts Kate MOrgan's s
final invitation to join her in burglary.
They enter house in which she has
worked as a maid. At the last moment,
however, David shrlnks from the cine
Of theft. While he broods the owner Of
the house, who proves to be a man he
has seen with Helen Chambers, appears
suddenly and covers him with a revolver.
There is talk between them, and Kate,
coming back, turns the situation and en-
ables David to knock the man senseless
and escape.
David meets Carl Hoffman. Mayor of
Avenue A." and that philanthropist in
the rough after hearing he has been a
thief, promises to get him a place. 1t
is to be that of janitOr at Sl2 a month.
David gets his Job from John Rogers,
agent for tenement. He rents the larger
of the nat given him for living quarters.
Tom comes to live with him.
Helen Chambers, learning from Tom
that David had not put the youngster
up to stealing, visits David to ask his
forgiveness because she had thought so
fl OF him. She urges him to turn TO
writing, and he decides TO follow her
advice.
The Mayor of Avenue A" agrees TO
help Tom to reform by giving the lad
a place in his restaurant. David, un-
known to his prOtege, is to pay the
boys wages.

CHAPTER Xxx.

YATES last sentence. You'll love me
IA yet, David" was constantly re-
curing during the next two days. He
would not, of course-yet he could but
muse upon the possibility. We are all
creatures of change. Our views of to-
day may not be our views of tomorrow;
our dislikes of this year may be our de-
sireS next. Since, as Kate had said,
Helen Chambers did not live for him,
, might there not take place within him
such a change as would make him eager
for the love he now could not accept?
David looked forward with dread to
his next meeting with Kate. He feared
another such scene, so painful to them
both, as the one they had just passed
through. But his fear was needless;
Kate's nature was impetuous, but her
will was strong, and she was capable of
restraint as well as abandon. She
David could be eventually won to be
more than a friend only by her now
asking and giving no more than friend
ship; and she was strong enough to
hold herself to this course.
When she came in two evenings later,
both her dress and manner were sober,
though her eyes showed what was be-
yond her self-control. They greeted

after two days searching she had found
a position in a department store and

"Lace-box soap, three, cakes for nine
cents. takes off skin and all--you know
fine kind, I get s. a week. That's $3.50
for a years work. I've made that much
and more in a night. Oh! 1t pays to
be honest"
She had broken the constraint, but
nevertheless David was grateful for the
entrance Of Mr.. Rogers, who just then
CHANGED in. David introduced the two,
and after a few moments of chat Mr..
Rogers invited David and Kate to dine
with him at the Pan-American Cafe,
where he had all his meals, A little
through the crowded tables-some quiet
with a days WEAKNESS, some buzzing
with business, banter, and frivolity;
some ager with discussions of music,
literature, religion, politics-and found
for them a table at the rear of the
room.
On the way over Kate announced that
she was going to do some studying at
home-reading was one of David's inter-
ests, so she had decided it must be one
OF hers-epd had asked for advice and

CHlLD'S HEAD
A MASS OF HUMOR

II think the Cuticura remedies are
the best remedies for eczema I have
ever heard of. My mother had child
who had a rash on its head when 1t
was real young. Doctor called it baby
rash. He gave us medicine, but 1t did
no good. In few days the head was
solid mass, running sore. 1t was
awful; the child cried continually. We
had to hold him and watch him to
keep him from scratching the sore
His suffering was dreadful. At last
we remembered Cuticura Remedies
We got dollar bottle OF Cuticura Re-
solvent, box of Cuticura Ointment
and bar of Cuticura Soap. We gave
the Resolvent as directed, washed the
head with the Cuticura Soap, and ap-
piled the Cuticura Ointment We had
not used half before the child's head
was clear and free from eczema. and
1t has never come back again. His
head was healthy and he had beau
tiful head Of hair. I think the Cuti-
cura Ointment very good for the hair.
1t makes the hair grow and prevents
falling hair" (Signed) Mrs. Francis
Lund, Plain City. Utah, Sept. 10. 1910.

ment are sold everywhere, sample

males generally in the registration
area of the United States AS per
cent. OF all deaths are from consump.
tion the ortality among grinders
from this disease Is 492 per cent, and
in hardly any of the dusty trades is 1t
below 25 per cent The percentage OF
deaths from tuberculosis among all
those exposed to metallic dust is 36e
per cent; to mineral dust, 2S6 pei
cent; to vegetable fibre dust, 2S.S per
cent; to mixed animal and other
forms of dust, 32.1 per cent; to street
