For good or bad. the world all be-
before me! Freedom, health-which
path shall take?'
The man who spoke was IN eX-con-
vict. He had just been released from
the ~penitentiary after serving a ten
years sentence for embezzlement. he
was o thirty-ive, yet his hair was
streaked with gray and there was a
certain hardness about the lips that
comes from solitude and resentment.
In a word, Mark Burnham, with lit
tile or no bringing up, an orphan from
IA tender age, had wasted five years of
his life, had secured a good position.
Finally temptation had come, he had
appropriated funds of his employer
and had been convicted.
During all those years of hard labor
he had preserved a stolid, rather than
a submissive attitude. He had count
ed the days on a notched stick. The
last one had been reached. He was
freed with a new suit of clothes and
a few dollars in his pocket. AT the
door of the prison he was met by a
lawyer. A distant relative had left
him $4,000. A free man, he could
now claim il.
The snug little fortune or its equiv
alent now reposed within a secret
pocket. That afternoon he had walked
TO a line of hills overlooking the coun.
try around, to analyze his unexpected
condition of a%fluence, to plan for the
future.
His mind was blank as an unwrit-
ten page. He had no friends. He had
paid the law its penalty. He was
clear of the world, and its fortune,
good or bad, all before him, Which
path, indeed, might he take,
AS he recalled how harshly fate had
dealt with him, as afar to the east
he caught the glittering spires of a big
busting city. his breath came quick
and hard. With all he had heard of
