a Man of Honor.

Dorcas breathed sigh of relief
when her cab drew up beside the
bread line. She had thought during
her brief drive around the block of the
possibility that the man might leave
his place; but there he stood, motion
less, with head bent defiantly against
the singing eddies of sleet. She
stepped from the carriage and passed
swiftly along the sidewalk beside the
line Of city's poor. She hesitated for
few seconds when she reached the
corner, then she stretched out her
hand and LAID It on the wet sleeve OF
the man before her. He turned and
stared at her for one dazed moment.
He did not speak. Instructive cour-
tesy reminded him that this was no
place for a woman in midnight
storm, and his desire to protect her
caused the hunger to be forgotten. He
stepped quietly from the sidewalk and
without word moved beside her down
the street. The movement caused
score of men to turn with quick curl
osity, but suddenly cry ran down the
line: The doors open!" Everything
else yielded to the march toward food.
Dorcas swiftly led the way to the
carriage. When she opened the door
and becl1oned Merry to enter he hest

had accorded to him.
