other people; he has as much as he

son who can see most faults in other
people is fully supplied with them
himself. It is not expected that one
will never criticize another, but It Is
the fault that should be criticized and
not the person. II 1t is the latter, then
prejudice takes the place Of judgment;
and so often is this the case. It is a

is not to hate the sinner, for indeed tho

CHAPTER K.
Good ~SamarItans,

Since she had undertaken to show
Wahaska precisely how to deport it.
self In the conventional field, Miss
Grierson had telegraphed her father
to meet her in st. Louis on her return
from Florida.
When Jasper Grierson Travelled alone
he was democratic enough to be salts
fed with a section in the body of the
a l. But when Margery's tastes were
to be consulted, the d~rawing-room was
none too good. Indeed. as it transpired
on the Journey northward from St.
Louis. the Anita's drawing-room
proved to be not good enough.
1T is simply a crude insult, the
way they wear out their old, broken
down cars on US up here!" she pro.
tested to her father. You ought to
do something about It"
Jasper Grierson's smile was a capt.
talistic requirement, and some OF his
fellow-townsmen described 1t as cast
IRON" But for his daughter it was
always indulgent.
" Ia ilItd yet,
Madgie; you'll have to give me a little
more time" he pleaded. clipping the
tip from a black cigar Of heroic pro-
portions and reaching for the box Of
safety matches.
"IT begin now, II you are going to
smoke that dreadful thing in this
stuffy little den," was the unflial re-
tort; and the daughter found a maya
zine and exchanged the drawing.room
with its threat Of a~sphyxiation for a
seat in the body of the car. Halfway
down the car one of the sections was
still curtained and bulkheaded; of
course. the occupant Of the middle
section must be Ill. Quite suddenly
her interest became acute. Who was
the sick one, and why was he, or she,
travelling without on attendant?
With Margery Grierson, to question
was to ascertain; and the Pullman
conductor. once more checking his dia-
grams in Section II. offered the readi.
est NEAR of enlightenment. A few
minutes later Margery rejoined her
father in the private compartment.
do you remember the n~ice-looking
young man who sat at the table with
us in the Choteau last night?" she
began abruptly.
The gray-wolf Jasper nodded. He
had an excellent memory for faces.
What did you think of him?" The
query followed the nod like a nimble
boxers return blow.
81 thought he paid a whole lot more
attention to you than he did to his
supper. Why?"
HE is on this car; sick with a fever
of some kind, and out Of his head. He
is going to Wahaska."
How do you know it's the same
one?"
81 made the conductor take me to
see him. He talked to me in Italian
and called me 'Carlotta mia"
"Humph! he didn't look like a dago."
"He isn't; it's Just because he is
d%elirious."
There was a long pause, broken
finally by q curt "Well?" from the

response. "of course. there is al
