CHAPTER III.
M. Bivens Calls.

~TUART walked next morning
- with a sense Of hopeless de-
preston. What strange mad
ness had come over the woman
he loved? They had never discussed
money before. Bivens was the only
explanation.
A letter was on the hall rack which
had been sent by a messenger. HI
broke the seal with nervous haste. II
was from Bivens asking him to cal
his Office telephone at II o'clock.
He tore the note into tiny pieces
stepped into the parlor and threw them
into the CRATE. Some one was play
ing an old fashioned southern melody,
and the tenderest voice accompanied
the piano. He walked to the door of
the music room.
It was Harriet Woodman. She look.
ed up with start.
''Oh, Jim, I didn't know you were
there!'
1T was beautiful, little pal"

81 didn't either until tried"
''You must study music" he said
with enthusiasm.
The girl clapped her hands and leap
ed to her feet, exclaiming:
"Will you be proud Of me. Jim. If
I can sing?"
Indeed WILL" was the earnest an
swer. -z-- .-,z..z=z
The laughing eyes grew serious as
she slowly said:
Then I'll do my level best. I'm of.
Goodby."
On reaching his Office on lower Broad
way Stuart rang Bivens' telephone. and
the president of the American Chemi-
cal company made an engagement to
call at once.
Stuart was grateful for the timely
call Of client who kept him In con-
sultation for fifteen minutes while Biv.
ems patiently waited his turn in the re.
ception room.
The first view of Bivens was always
unimpressive He was short, thin and
looked almost frail at first glance. A
second look gave the impression OF
wiry reserve force in his compact
frame. His hair was Jet black and
thinning slightly on top. which gave
him the appearance Of much greater
age than he could really claim His
thin features were regular, and his
face was covered with q thick black
beard which he kept trimmed to. q
keen point on the chin. His most strik.

This remarkable tale, in which
each character is sketched from
life by master hand, goes be-
meath the surface Of modern So

work, it is a tale Of American
life. essentially true in the picture
