growled Red flanagan, glancing bit
terly after the secretary, Mrs. Hubert,
as she swept majestically away, her
silken garments trailing audibly over
the floor.
Red felt aggrieved in his inmost
soul. Two weeks before he had come
out of states prison after serving a
term of two years for grand larceny.
He had really meant to run straight
after marrying Lizzie, but it was hard
for the ex-jailbird to get a position
and harder still to keep it, with the
police always bounding one. So Red
had fallen. The temptation was
strong one, for they were both starv-
ing. He had gone to the penitentiary,
and he had never seen Lizzie since
the day he was sentenced.
When he came out he realized that
all efforts to find her were doomed to
disappointment Lizzie had disap-
peared and it was evident that she
would never return to him. She had
been a servant, but bred in a COM
munity of decent country people, she
had no use for a jailbird, even though
he had stolen to assist her.
Embittered and hopeless, Red had
drifted into the Prisoners Reforma-
ton society rooms on the Bowery,
where he had heard Mrs. Hubert, as
sisted by a parson, hold forth upon
the right of the criminal to redeem
himself. The discourse seemed to
Red so preposterously untrue to life
that he could not restrain his indig-
nation. When Mrs. Hubert stepped
smiling, down from the platform, he
approached her.
Say! That's fine dope you've been
giving u.s. he sneered. Maybe it

was pathetic offer and significant of
Reds real desire to reform.
Thereafter Mrs. Hubert took the
case in hand and told Red, with much
smiling and bland patronage, that
when he had proved his manhood the
committee would find his wife for
him. So for a whole month Red
worked at his. job, gradually losing

ness.
