There are two ways of doing battle
against disgrace. You may live it
down; or you may run away from it
and hide. The first method is heart
breaking, but sure. The second can
not be relied upon because of the un-
comfortable way disgrace has of turn
ing up at your heels just when you
think you have eluded her in the last
town but one.
Ted Terrill did not choose the first
method. He had it thrust upon him.
After Ted had served his term he
came back home to visit his mother
grave, intending to take the next train
out. He wore none of the prison pal
Tor that you read about in books, be-
cause he had been shortstop on the
penitentiary all-star baseball team, and
famed for the dexterity with which he
could grab up red-hot grounders. The
stored lock step and the clipped hair
effect also were missing. The super
intendent of Ted's prison had been one
of the reform kind.
You never would have picked Ted
for a criminal. He had none of those
interesting chronological bumps and
depressions that usually are shown to
such frank advantage in the Bertillon
photographs. Ted had been assistant
cashier in the Citizens National bank.
In a mad moment he had attempted a
little sleight-of-hand act in which GER
tain Citizens National funds were to
be transformed into certain glittering
shares and back again so quickly that
the examiners couldn't follow it with
their eyes. But Ted was unaccustomed
to these now-you-see-it-and-no
don't feats and his hand slipped. The
trick dropped to the floor with an
awful clatter.
Ted had been a lovable young kid,
six feet high. and blond, with a great
reputation as dresser He had the
first yellow plush hat in our town. II
sat on his golden head like a halo.
The women all liked Ted. Mrs. Dank-
worth. the dashing widow (why will
widows persist in being dashing?).

on slips of paper. | might as we'll
call her in again, and we'll have the
whole blamed thing out"
Minnie Wenzel came. In her hand
were slips of paper, and books with
figures in them, and Ted looked and
saw things written in his own hand
that should not have been there. And
he covered his shamed face with his
two hands and gave thanks that his
mother was dead.
There came three sharp raps at the
office door, The tense figures within
jumped nervously.
Keep OUT" called 80 Haley, who
ever you are" Whereupon the door
opened and Birdie Callahan breezed in.
Get out, Birdie Callahan" roared
10. You're in the wrong pew"
Birdie closed the door behind her
| composedly and came farther into the
room. Pete, tn pastry cook, just tells
me that Minnie Wenzel told tn day

Ted took a quick step forward.
Birdie. for heavens sake keep out of
this. You can't make things any bet

where's the money!" asked Birdie.
Ted stared at her a moment. his
mouth open ludicrously.

Birdie snorted defiantly. 81 thought

Birdie walked over to where Minnie

pointed stubby, red finger in her
face. "'Tis the grand manager We are,

caught between her teeth.

he's changed. Doin' time has taken
the edge off his hair an complexion.
Not changed his color, do yuh mind,
but dulled it, like a gold ring.' or the
like, that has furnished"
Ted was seated in the smoker, with
a chip on his shoulder, and sick hor-
ror of encountering someone he knew
in his heart, when 10 Haley. of the
Haley house, got on at Westport.
homeward bound 10 Haley is the
most eligible bachelor in our town,
and the sliSperiest. He has made the
Haley house a gem, so that travelling
men will cut half a dozen towns to
Sunday there. If he should say Jump
through this!" to any girl in our town
she'd jump.
10 Haley strolled leisurely up the
car aisle toward Ted. Ted saw him
coming and sat very still, waiting.
Hello. Ted! How's Ted?" said 10
Haley, casually. And dropped into the
adjoining seat without any more fuss
Ted wet his lips slightly and tried
to say something. He had been a
breezy talker. But the words would
not come. 10 Haley made no effort
to cover the situation with a rush of
conversation. He did not seem to
realize that there was any situation to
cover. He champed the end of his
cigar and handed one to Ted.
We'll, you've taken your lickin'
kid. What you going to do now?"
The rawness of it made Ted vince.
"Oh, l don't know" he stammered.
I've got a job half promised in Chi
cago."
What doing?"
Ted laughed a short. ugly laugh.
Driving a brewery auto truck"
10 Haley tossed his cigar dexterous-
ly to the opposite corner of his mouth
and squinted thoughtfully along it's
bullying sides.
Remember that Wenzel girl that's
kept books for me for the last six
years? She's leaving in a couple of
months to marry New York guy that
travels for ladies' cloaks and suits.
After she goes it's nix with the lady
bookkeepers for me. Not that Minnie
isn't good, straight girl, and honest.
but no girl can keep books with one
eye on a column of figures and the
other on a travelling man in brown
suit and a red necktie, unless she's
cross eyed, and you bet Minnie isn't.

T-can't, 10. Thanks just the

"Oh, yes" said 10. 81 knew a fellow
that did that. After he came oat he
