Beneath his hard exterior Driscoll
had a heart tender in one respect.
He loved children. That was why he
scowled at them, to hide his feelings.
If Mary and he could have had a
child like that!
He spoke gruff1y to the little girl,
but she did not seem to notice his
presence. And at last, with shrug
of the shoulders, DTiscoH turned his
back on her.
He started away-nOt in the direc-

toward his home. A new idea had
come to him. He would pretend that
he had been killed in the wreck, and
return home secretly, to discover
what people were saying about him.
He anticipated the jeers, the scoffing
and congratulations, and his. own
triumph when he suddenly appeared
in the midst of them.
The news of the disaster had
spread rapidly, and, five miles down
the line, Driscol passed a wrecking
train, with a medical car attached.

} AFTER THE WRECK
Eas = 81 = So - 50
BY Arthur. CIeves.
Jim Driscon found himself upon his
!eet, staring at the wreck of the train
n which he had been travelling. All
Ibout him lay the dead and injured,
md the carriages, which were begin
hing to catch fire, Ilumined the night
with a lurid glare.
It was in the middle Of the noun
ain district of Pennsylvania. Dris-
coll had left his little town in Illinois
% go to New York. It was his first
Journey in ten years. A discovery Of
oil upon his property had given him
the promise of wealth, and he had set
out to negotiate with company.
Jim Driscol, at fifty, was reputed
The crabbedest old man in BOxVille.
If Mary and he had had children he
might have discovered that life is not
wholly vale of tears. AS it was, he
was a town character. He knew it,
too; knew that Mary shrank from
him and feared him, though loyalty
kept her to him; knew that his pres
ence anywhere chilled the miTth, that
the children hated him, that his
neighbors avoided him.
He gloried in it. He had the repu-
tation of vindictiVe man, and he
gIoried in that. He was clOse-fsted,
hard as nails, and he Rugged his sin
lister reputation to his heart.
The wreck had come suddenly. It
had unsettled him. Of course, he
was not going to interest himself in
any of the injured. That was not
DriscoTs way. But the physical
shakeup had unsettled the habits of
years, and for the first time in years
Drisco1 began to take stock of him
self.
His thoughts were changed by
hearing a child's cry at his side.
STOPPING down, he saw a pretty little
