it had been all her fault, and they

They arose from the sofa, and the
husband said they'd been talking the
matter over and if I didn't mind the
disappointment they would try to get
on together for awhile longer. Taking
out his pocketbook. he offered to pay
me what fee asked for taking up my
time, but 1 told him there would be
no charge. l asked him If he couldn't
put the money back into his furniture.
and he said he thought he could. At
any rate, he would try. Before they
left me I made them promise that if
they changed their minds and should
conclude, after all, to secure a divorce
they would give me the job. This they
promised to do as some compensation
for my disappointment" in not having
been employed already, for they were
too stupid to see through the ruse that
had prevented permanent breach be-
tween them.
Its hard on you. Mr.. Lawyer, to ex

and then not get it. but you'd ought
to have seen that a makeup in order

By c. D. ARKWRICHT

am what is called a shyster law
yer. 1t isn't my fault that l rise no
higher in my profession; it is fate.
When graduated from the law school
my ambition was to be some day chief
justice of the United States. In two
months was ready to accept the at
torney generalship. Then l fell in the
scale to covet a fair practice. And
now am shyster. l am the mean
est kind Of shyster. devote my
time to separating those whom God
has Joined together, not the higher,
but the lower classes. have secured
divorce for fee of S..
One day young couple came to my
Office to get divided. Their ages were
the man nineteen, the girl eighteen.
He wore a threadbare coat that indi-
Gated he was or had been a street car
conductor.
"Mr. Lawyer" he said, II suppose it
costs lot to get divorce. We had
to sell our furniture to raise the mon
ey. But we got $50 for it. Here it
Is"
He opened a pocketbook and took
out five dirty ten dollar bills. His
wife stood by looking like young
! thundercloud.
"What's the trouble?" I asked.
! Both began to talk at once. each
abusing the other in a disconnected
way. l caught as much as l. could of
what they said. but was unable to
gather the slightest cause for divorce
from either.
'That'll do" said. "You." address.
ing the husband, ''have treated your
wife abominably. And you." to the
wife, ''have done number of things
you wouldn't have done had you been
older and more experienced. In order
to secure divorce for you you must
act tremendously, for legally the
grounds for an action on either side
are very weak. You must throw of
this antagonism long enough to form
with me a plan for separation. shall
be busy for about an hour, and mean
while wish you to sit down on that
sofa side by side and try to get back
to the days when you were counting
Think about the first kiss, the putting
on of the engagement ring I see or
that round finger. Then the wedding
and all that. If you keep thinking
about these things till get through
some other cases we can all act togeth
er for a divorce"
They did as l told them to do, but
took seats as far apart as possible and
at first it looked as though nothing
would be gained. They sat thus, bott
bolt upright for awhile, but kept ar
eye Oh them and saw that they were
trying to keep their minds on what
had indicated. In about half an hour
l gathered up some papers and went
into another room. When l returned
half the distance between them had
been eliminated. Encouraged. l hunt
ed for paper l had left on my table
and went out again. When l returned
the wife was wiping away tears. The
husband. Judging from his expression
was endeavoring to steel himself
| against reconciliation.
:, / left the room again, telling then
that l would return in about forty min
utes, when should expect them tt
have got rid Of enough ntagonism t
