that the question of general currency re-

interest in the question of currency re-

AS Oswald came from his supper
and took look at the heavens from
the small front porch, he was deeply
troubled that Orlando had remained
so obstinate on this point. For there
were ominous clouds rolling up from

of Brotherson, was to be allowed to
make the third in this small band of
spectators, was equally concerned at
this sight, but not for Brotherson. His
fears were for Oswald, whose slow.
ly gathering strength could lily bear
the strain which this additional anx-
tety for his brothers life must impose
upon him. As for Doris, she was in
