before you quit, you loafer. If you're
ready you can git, and let me tell you

Jocelyn, too astounded by this IT,
rade to answer, stepped through the
door-into the arms of Mrs. Orme.
$50 this is how you keep your word
to your friends, is it," she sneered.
Cheap way to make a little bit more,
isn't it? And ALT and me with the

and you've bin and trained and hogged

Then for the first time Joce1yn I'M
derstoOd the meaning of Barney's in
situations about the third round. He
drew the purse from his pocket. In
side he found eight bills of the value
! Of five hundred dollars apiece.
I Madam" he said, let me assure
you that the whole thing was a mis-
understanding" He counted IL four
bills. Here is your SHARE" he said,
and thrust them into her hand. Then,
while she stood stared open-mouthed
at him and at the bills alternately, he
made his way into the street, Guiding
the mob that sought to follow him,
and made. his way home.
"That'l keep me going for a few
days" he said, putting the remainder
of his winnings away. And now for

Here's Jake, boy$s,he shouted.

I dimly descry row upon row of heads
surrounding the dais on which he
trod. Men were shouting and yelling
to him and his opponent from behind
the ropes.
Remember" whispered Barney in
his ear, you fall in the third"
"Unless he falls in the tenth" said
Jocelyn, laughing.
Barney stared at him, then .nudged
him in the ribs. go long with you,
kid" he said. See here, you'll play
fair? The boys would kill you if you
didn't, Bo."
81 certainly SHALL" said Jocelyn;
and a moment later he found himself
confronting ALT Orme across the ring.
Time, boys" shouted the manager.
! dancing around inside the ropes.
Jocelyn advanced to meet his adVer-
sary, felt his hand grasped, and, an
instant later, went staggering back
under a violent body blow which pro-
PEELED him against the ropes. AS he
hung over them for an instant he
heard yells of delight from the crowd.
That's sharp practice" ne muttered,
setting his teeth angrily, and duChed
just in time to escape a knockout
| blow which Orrne aimed at his jaw.
He lodged under Orme's arm Inc re-
gained the oenter Of the ring, where
he parted several more vicious
thrusts until his breath came back
to him. Then the round ended and
he was led back to his seat.
YEN have to show more fight"
whispered Barney, or they'll think
something's crooked. Go into him,
Bo. Soak him in the ribs with that
right of yours. Time-time."
And now Jocelyn, recovered, faced
his enemy with something of the con
fdence that he had felt at college On
many an occasion when, the novelty
and stagefright wearing off, he had
aroused enthusiastic plaudits with his
science and skill. Orme was fighting
viciously, but his blows were wild and
his muscles sluggish. Toward the
end Of the round Jocelyn saw an open

Jocelyn arose and went to his desk.
Unlocking a drawer he pulled out four
bills Of the value of five hundred dol
lars apiece and thrus them into his
visitors hand.
Her address is 666 Fifty-tirst
street." he said, and she will tell you
why these belong to you. Don't say a

his visitor out. He closed the door
on him and then turned back and
opened it. MCGEE was standing in a
sort of trance at the head Of the stairs.

approvingly. Tell o what, boy. I

he went TO bed and was soon wrapped
in dreams.
He awoke at nine o'clock. but for
several moments he could not quite
recall what had happened on the pre-
ceding evening. Then as memory
slowly came back to him he sat on
the edge of his couch and groaned.
First I've got to give evidence in
the police court" he muttered. And
then I've got to fight for four thou
sand dollars, and run the risk of be-
ing half killed as a 'faker,' even If |
don't give myself away" He felt the
muscles of his arms and took several
imaginary punches at the air. AT col
lege Lord Jocelyn had been a famous
boxer; be was not really afraid Of the
battle. though his chances of winning
seemed infinitesimal. Something else
was troubling him. but for a minute
he could not discover what it was.
Then the recollection came to him.
and he groaned out loud.
And she's married." he cried, in a
voice that vas half a sob shes ALI
Orme's wife"
There anne a tap at the door and
the face of Talbot, his servant, APP
peared, peering round the jamb. Did
you call, sir?" he asked. Il thought

~"No-yes," Lord Jocelyn answered
Talbot, what would o do if you
made an ass Of yourself for a girl and
then found that h was somebody
else's wife,"
I'D clear out. sir" answered Tai
bot. There was a young woman as
lived down EPSON way"
"Drat your young woman, Talbot.
I can't clear out. The police nave my

Then, sir, I'd see the thing
through" said Talbot sagely.
You're right, by George" his mas
ter answered. Talbot, my dressing
gown. And look alive; I've got to be
bathed and dressed in 80 minutes"
Which you shall be, sir" Talbot
replied-and proved his contention.
But the young woman was not at
the police court. The case came on
at eleven, and her aggresSor, now very
much the victim, came into the dock a
miserable object, his head swathed in
bandages. Briefly, Lord Jocelyn gave
his evidence. which corroborated that
of the policeman.
where's the young woman in the
case?" the magistrate asked.

convention Of the American Numis-

public and collectors OF silver apiece
which for rarity, value and historical
worth completely eclipses the cele-

The Washington Post. Even in some

This coin, which is known as the

by H. o. Granbcrg of Oshkosh, WIS,

Colonies, as the confederation was
originally known. The continental
dollar preceded by nine years the is

no doubt, was largely Influenced by
this first dollar, for it bore its prin-
cipal features of design.

No definite information as to where

Where does the young woman

a suspicious gaze on Jocelyn.

He broke off and turned a glance
upon Jocelyn in which hatred and
fury were equally combined.
Three days in the workhouse,'
said the magistrate. Next case" And
the man was hustled away, growing
and shaking his fists at Jocelyn vim
dictively.
This part of his duty concluded.
Lord Jocelyn walked out of the court
room moodily. This was only an in
cident; the hardest part would fall to
his lot that evening. A dozen times
the plan flashed through his mind not
to go, but he dismissed it on each oc-
| casion as an unworthy one. If he did
not appear Orme's suspicious against

P~oJiteness Little Thought Of.

In all ages the gentleman has been
crucifed or violently killed in some
other way. This shows that we recog-
nize a strength other than our own.
but we are little disposed to tolerate
it. Manners, too, have been brought
into ~disrepute by the circumstance
that they are the first cloak to which
hypocrisy flies. But courtesy and
are very different things in
a certain sense. The heart of courtesy
may coexist with the husk of extreme
rudeness. Courtesy can never be
taught, though department can. But
on the day when King George ffnds
himself ruling over a polite" nation
he will find himself ruling over a
decadent nation.-London Truth.
