Stunned and fearless, without a
glance at his father Thompson left
the study and stumbling up the stairs
he went to his room and stood at the
window, looking out unseeing1y.
He was aroused by the changing OF
the iron gate and looked with startled
gaze into the contemptuous eyes OF
his father.

The next morning when Thompson
went to the breakfast room he found
a note by his plate which read:
II have been called away on i'm

notified.

Thompson put the note in his pocket
and hastily drank his coffee. Food he
could not swallow. His father had
given the coachman orders to see that
Master Thompson was at the depot In
time. and 30 when he left the table
he found the carriage at the door.
Without word of farewell the lonely
boy started on his journey.

carefully, affixed his name and turn
ing to leave the room, he looked full
into the eyes of his father as he said,
Good day, gentlemen"
The Honorable Thompson Palmer
did considerable thinking and some
investigating that day and he made
at least one discovery-the money
placed in the bank to his sons credit
remained intact.
Thompson made a flying trip to Mrs.
Kemble and with a boyish whoop he
lifted her up and kissed her as he
said: "Auntie. they are finding me
now" and hurriedly told her of his
success, and father was there!"
Your father will find you soon"
Mrs. Kemble replied, her voice tremu-
lous with feeling.
After the bridge was built to tbs
satisfaction of the railroad company
and to the lasting honor of the young

was swinging in the hammock with
Aunt Fannie in her low chair when
a footstep was heard and some one
asked:
Not at all, Mr.. Palmer. We are
glad to see you"
The lawyer did not wait for further
conversation, but to the young man
who had arisen from the hammock he
held out his hand and hesitatingly
said, MY SON"

With downcast eyes and bent shout

out on the lawn, threw himself down

torn away at a most critical time.
A meeting of the officials was being
held and this matter vas under dis
cussion. One Of the officials said:
I'VE must have an expert, not a
theoretical expert, but one who can
oversee the construction Of the bridge
and one who can and will work with
his own hands If necessary. I, for
one, am tired of paper bridges or
bridges built on paper and 1 feel sure
that 1 know the man. He is young
but he has already accomplished some
very difficult and wonderful bridge
building. He is high priced, but worth
1t. His name is Palmer; he has just
returned from South America, where
he has been experimenting the con-
struction Of a suspension bridge They
tell me it is wonderful"
1t was decided to ask the young en-
gineer to meet them next morning, for
the need was great.
Promptly at the hour named the
young engineer appeared. In a few
concise sentences the matter was
placed before him.

surprise that ne saw his son clothe5
in a neat, well fitting suit, faultless
linen and with the air of one well
pleased with himself.
Good morning, father. have
brought you my report" And he
handed the paper to Mr.. Palmer.
When did you get this?"
This week"
How did you manage it"'
'I have been studying all summer
Aunt Fannie has been my tutor
AS his father placed the high school
report on the table Thompson handed
him another and it was with great
surprise that Mr.. Palmer read the re-
port of the preparatory examination
of c. college. Attached to the report
was a card emitting the owner to en-
ter the department of civil engineer
ing.
Have you been in the city all

YES, sir. I did not want to come
to you until I could bring proofs that

feel that I can succeed in that pro-
fession."
The manly, straightforward manner
of speaking, the upright carriage and
direct gaze, so different from the for
mer cringing attitude, deeply i'm
pressed the lawyer, and yet he could
not instantly give UP his plans for his
sons future career.
For a moment he did not reply and
then, Very we'll, if you prefer the
grimy hands and greasy overalls of a
common working man to the dignified
and honored profession of the law
The uplifting of the eyebFoks. the
pause, were more eloquent than
words.
Thompson's face flushed as he re-
piled:
81 would rather be a success as a
working man than a failure as law
yer"
"As you please. I will be away from
home the greater part of the coming
winter and having had no idea of your
returning so soon / have given orders
to have the house closed until my re-
turn. I presume that you can spend
the week lends with your aunt"
Yes sir, that was my intention"
VERY we'll" and turning to the
desk he drew out check book and
gave it Thompson, saying:
You will find funds in the First
National Bank sufficient for your ex-
penses," and holding out the reports
he added: Here are your creden-
tails. 1 congratulate you on the
choice of a profession
Thompson took theS check book and
papers, placed them in the inside
pocket of his coat and with a cour-
teous bow and good day, SIR" and
with no sign of the tempest within
he left the room. AS he turned to
close the gate he saw that his father
was watching him from the window
sGravely lifting is hat he bowed re-
spectfully, and both father and son
remembered the night when a lonely
boy with tear stained face was look
ing disconsoIately from the window
while the father passed through the
gate.
