McGrath found his handouts and
tried the key in those upon Griswold' S
wrists. 1t fitted

ye're NO more like him than am. Let
that go. we've been up to some devil
try. But that's all over and gone.
What'll we be doing next?"
Griswold took a leaf out of the past.
Safety in a former peril had grown
out Of a breakfast deliberately eaten
In cafe next door to the Bayou State
Security.
What would l do but finish my job
on the Julie?" he said, pushing the
theory to its logical conclusion.
The mate shook his head. Eye

McGrath took a greasy wallet from
his pocket and counted out a deck
hands wages for the trip.
Take this, and I'll be getting II
back from the clerk. II might not be
good fr ye to show up at the office"
Griswold suffered a sudden return
to the meliorating humanities.
I've been calling you all the hard
names / could lay tongue to, McGrath,
and there have been times when |

farm for the privilege of standing up
to you on a bit Of green grass with no
body looking on. take 1t all back.

Nose, anywhere, sind him back and
tell him I'll see that he gets real
money f'r helping us unload. on with
ye, now, whilst they're catching up

Griswold went leisurely, as befitted
his theory, and upon reaching the lev
ee, turned aside among the freight
pyramids in search of his confede-
rate. Now that there was time to
recall the facts he feared that the
negro had been taken. He had Sc
cured but few yards start In the
race, and his pursuer was white
man, able to back speed with intelli-
gence. Griswold had a slckening At
of despair when he contemplated the
possibility OF failure with the goal al
most In sight; and the reaction, when
he stumbled upon the negro skulking
IN the shadows of lumber cargo, was
sharp enough to make him faint and
dizzy.
The negro did not recognize him at
first and was about to run away, when
Griswold shook OF the henumbing
weakness and called out.

Griswold went his way musing upon
the little object lesson afforded by
the negro's determination. Here was
fellow man who was one of the
feeblest Of the underdogs in the great
social fight; and with money enough
In hand to give him at least breath

6tilton cheeses differ from ordinary
sheeses in the method of manufacture
Each Stilton is made in a circular

Of curd covers the bottom Of the mold

through the cloth and out of inc holes

After the curd has stood for twenty
