posure-to experience once more the
only pleasure life held in reserve for

Before going downtown, Gregory
stroiled casually within sight of the
Clinton clearinghouse. Only Miss
Sapphire was on the green veranda.

waved a solemn greeting, and he felt
reassured-for he was always afraid

way nearer,

yielded to the love that had outgrown
all other principles of conduct.
They gained the street before the
courthouse which by courtesy passed
under the name of "the city square,"
Grace's hand grew tense on Gregory's
arm-"Look!"
Her whisper was lost in the wind,
but Gregory, following her frightened
glance, saw Robert Clinton elbowing
his way through the crowd, forcing
his progress bluntly, or jovially, &C
cording to the nature of obstruction.
He did not see them and, by lodging,
they escaped.
The nearness of danger had paled
Grace's cheeks. Gregory accepted his
own trembling as natural, but Grace's
evident fear acted upon his nebulous
state of mind in a way to condense
jumbled emotions and deceptive long,
ings into something like real thought.

find themselves penned in a court,
surrounded on all sides by strident
cries of "barkers," cracking reports
from target-practice, fusillades at the
"doll-babies," changing jars from
strength-testers and the like; while
from this horrid field of misguided en-
ergy, there was no outlet save the mar
row entrance they had unwittingly
used.

e~ntangled the ground. "We must get

old tin cans are gathered up and hurl-

product from the steel, which forms
the real basis for the can. The tin
is far more valuable than the steel,
