Uncle Robert, " he said, you edu-
Gated me, you brought me up. I
want none Of your money-only your
affection. Where you go I 60"
MEAN that, do you?" snapped out
Uncle Robert in his keen suspicious
way.
q do"
"Stick to me if I hadn't a cent?"
ITO the last ditch" proclaimed
Jasper dramatically.
Now this was a selfish, hypocriticaI
lie, and later Jasper was very sorry
for it. He had been impelled by false
motives. He knew that Uncle Rob-
ert had a great deal more than $1O,-
900. In the shrewd StillweH way,
Jasper calculated that the old man
was making a test. When he had got
rid of his avaricious self-seeking har-
pies of relatives, he would richly re-
ward the one who wanted his af-
lection only"
In a month the mask was down.
Uncle Robert started Jasper into a
desuIatory law practice. Then he
proceeded to devote all his time to
the "Soul Dreamers." A climax
came. The specious head of the cult
made off with all the funds of the
sect, including $4,000, the last Of
Uncle Roberts fortune. Uncle Rob-
ert came to the little home he had
rented for Jasper and himself with
doleful face and more dolefuI
story one afternoon. They were
paupers! Then he took the train to
Brampton. He returned next morn
ing.
Aunt Priscilla was abroad, brother
in-law Thompson had company and
no room for even relatives, Cousin
Felix had lost his all in speculation.
The old man looked pretty detected
and hopeless. AS Jasper noted his
worn anxious face his better self
came to the surface.

S, you will never become my SON

clples, you VIII never become my SON
in-law."
The test came soon after that. One
day old Robert Miller summoned all
his relatives to a family council. A
new sect had sprung up in the next
town. A speCioUs impressive appear
ing man, their leader, had devised the
cult of the Soul Dreamers," he call
ed it. The weak minded and the idle
became easy victims. Old Miller had
dreamed himself into their mysteries.
He now told his relatives so.
81 have decided to do for you peo-
pie what you are all waiting for" he
announced bluntly. 81 have Hquidat-
ed the bulk of my possessions for
$4,000. I warn you, after that is
distributed you need expect nothing
further from me, living or dead.
Brother-in-law Thompson, you have
large family, mortgage on your
home-What say to S3,OOO?"
'It would come in good, right
surew declared brother in law
Thompson buoyantly. mann has
been harassing me to death for an
automobile. Daughter never was at
a fashionable watering place and I'd
like to give her a season there"
'Humph-fooI and his money
but go it while you got it. And you,
Aunt Priscilla?"
81 need a trip abroad, doctor says
eff you're thinking of me in the
distribution, piped in Cousin Felix
Todd, 'Tl pay it back. Say, I know
of a speculation in the city where 3d.
900 will earn thirty in a year."
"Do? all right. Come to the bank
and Wen pay off. There's something
left, Jasper; what especial line of ex-
travagant folly have you got in mind
for your share?"
And now was the supreme moment
for Jasper Miller. He forgot Eva, he
remembered only his old cautious,
