he realized that the Judge intended to

talking business. Broadway wondered
II he might not have to give his legal
work to some more intelligent attor-

But no. The Judge was purely bust

man reconciled himself as best he

Jackson Jones was really embar-

was certain that 1t was absurd. To

She laughed at his commercial igno-

For an instant his heart sank as he
contemplated saying what he felt that
he must say, sank doubly deep be-
cause he felt that the confession he
must make might possibly disturb the
good opinion of him which he hoped
he had renewed in her peculiarly lucid
