BAR AGAINST Love
Protested Note Makes "Blue
Monday" but Eventually There
Was Glad Ending.
BY GEORGE ELMER COBB.

II was Blue Monday for Max Will
Der, with a vengeance! 1t was after a
bright, blissful Sunday, for had he not
seen Leila Marsh and passed with her
one OF the most delightful evenings
of his life? Not that affairs were set
tied in that quarter, but he could not
forget the bright eyes and radiant
cheeks that had greeted him, nor the
parting moment under the waving
cherry blossoms, with the white moon
light drifting down upon that rare
head of FURNISHED gold.
Then, too, up TO the hour OF the
opening Of the bank. Max had felt
something more than cheerful and
happy. He was thirteen hundred dol
lars to the good, had a permanent po-
sition. enjoyed the confidence OF the
bank officers, and was led to look to a
cashiership in the near future.
And then the reaction the formal
call TO the Office of the stern and dig
nified president, who waved him TO a
seat and tossed note across the
.slass-topped table with the single
word:
Protested"
Max turned little pale as he
scanned the bit of paper. 1t was note
ninety days old, signed by Simon
Marsh and indorsed by himself,
amount $1,000, and pinned to it was
the notation of fifteen dollars interest
overdue, and one-fifth OF that amount
for protest fees. He was considerably
perturbed, but looked up steadily with
the question:
1T could not be renewed"
Scarcely" sententiously remarked
the president, his declaration fixed and
somber as the utterance Of fate.
Il will pay it, then" said Max. who
quietly drew out his check book, cal
culated the gross and passed over
the earnings and savings of two years.
All this was done quietly and strict
ly according to bank ethics. but even

taken up the task of trying to hatch
out a nest of eggs deserted by rebel

the old gobbler plucked out some OF

to do the setting himself. Neighbors

Just hold that note. I'm going to make
good"
Max shook his head obviously as he
left the old man. He was gloomy all
day. In fact. his spirits became SO de-
pressed towards evening that he felt
he must get sympathy, at least distrac-
ton of mind somewhere. So he went
to see Leila.
She was formal, chilling. He spent
an awkward hour srying to keep up a
casual conversation. Then he grew
fairly desperate. He had lost his
money-it looked as IL he had lost his
love, as well.
There is something must say"
he spoke in strained. tremulous tone
as he stood at the door in parting. 1T
is on my heart and will not allow me
to rest. Miss Marsh, Leila, l love-"
The solemn dignity OF her uplifted
hand checked him.
"Not-now," she said simply There
is a debt to pay. Mr.. WILDER. Good
evening""
And about a week later Max knew
that Leila had done two things
opened a savings bank account and in
sured her life. He might admire her
high consistency to principle. but this
set barrier against love made him
wretched
They met at church, at some local
social events after that, but always a
distance between them. II nearly
broke the heart OF Max to see a
marked economy in dress on the part
OF Leila. She was an orphan and
worked as stenographer for the city
courts. Her pay was not large.
Saving. skimping, suffering to pay
meme, who would give her my life!"
reflected Max, distractedly
There came into the bank one day
bronzed, bearded man, with a ragged
canvas satchel bearing traces of long
and difficult travel He placed It
across the counter opened it and took
out a small wooden box.
From the mint" he said in a curl
Gus, hoarse voice.
The clerks watched him with some
interest. They had never before seen
those little oblong yellow bricks
stamped, TT. S. NJ, $40" ~. S. M,
S112," "U. S. NJ, STA"
The stranger placed ten OF them to
one side with single question:
Where is Mr. Max Wilber?"
And this is what Max saw when he
came out from the directors room.
Il promised you," said Simon Marsh,
extending hand hard as a piece OF
gristle. Just a pan Of water and a
dip into the old chute tailings. It's a
sure ten dollars day and I'm going
back to the Hills TO repeat the opera
tion as soon as I see my niece"
Max WILDER saw his uncouth visitor
as far as the door. He whispered into
his ear:
Speak one word for me-"
And this was the line he received
from the grim old prospector few
hours later:
Debt Cancelled. Claim your own.
Leila sees the light. Bless you both"
only little sorrowing. little pa
tience," spoke Max that evening, Leila
by his side. once again amid the lure
OF the white moonlight, "and this glad
ending"
But how much love. too. through all
the cruel ordeal" whispered his prom
ised bride, tenderly.
