 Broadway had his high triumphant moment when it became apparent that Wallace would of necessity go to the village barber shop. Having come away in flight from Mrs. Gerard with he had no razor with him.
 My whiskers are so whitish that they will not begin to show until the afternoon" Broadway exulted. By that time Rankin will be here with bags"
 I'll wait for him won't see any"
 You'll be sure to see the judges daughter. All the Jonesville girls that work at the gum factory get up at six o'clock. The idle, aristocratic class, like Clara, stay in bed till seven"
 Well, where is it, then?" said Wal lace in an evil temper.

 She had hay notion of what the life of idle rich youth in New York must be, but imagined that it must attract with vivid power. and she could guess that Jonesville did not Would he hold firm in the determination which she felt sure he had formed?
 When the judge came in he found her wondering and worrying as she waited for some papers she had sent a clerk to get. Already she had almpst finished the statement of affairs which she had promised to give Broadway
 well, l just came over from the Grand hotel" the judge began
 Did you see the young man?''
 Only for minute" The judge laughed indulgently. He was eating breakfast in his room, and his valet h2d just borrowed some hot flat-irons and was pressing out his clothes" The jndges laughter became very hearty
 Even Josie smiled, bur the fact that
