terror OF her domineering husband.
Even after he carried her on to
wealth and social leadership, she
was still terrified and unhappy. At
last she had the good luck to die
leaving one child, son named Jock.
Jock Mccall inherited his mothers
good looks and charm of manner.
He inherited. too. some of her timid-
ity. And this quality had been in
tensined. In boyhood, by his fathers
bullying.
jeremiah had great hopes for this
son OF his. He wanted the boy to
become leader Of men. like him
self He wanted him fitted to rule
the Mccall dynasty. some day, and
to carry on the work his father had
begun. Above all. he dreaded lest
the lad should fall into the idleness
and dissipation that beset rich mems
sons.
With this in view. he put Jock
through course OF training that
might well have broken the spirit OF
an army mule. Apart from rigid
home discipline, he made the boy
start at the very bottom Of the silk
business and work long hours. six
days IA week. for ffty-two weeks a
year. And he paid him not one cent
In wages lest money might prove a
temptation TO lure him away from
the joys of labor and from rect!tude.
Jeremiah gave Jock his board,
lodging END clothes, and an occa-
sional badly.grudgcd dollar or 30 OF
spending money. And with this the
youth VAS forced TO De content.
Young Mccall proved himself a
good worker-intelligent, quick, In
dustrious He hated the mill routine,
but he stuck TO II, because he dared
not cross his fathers wishes by do
ing anything else.
But at last a CLEAN OF sunlight
flashed into the drab monotony OF
his life That was the day Amy

Amy was a dainty. winsome slip OF

he screeched as ne pulled his head

Chatterer fell in the most undlgni-

frightened TO think of this. He had
just one thought and that was to
get away as soon as possible. From

doorway in which Chatterer had
so carelcssly thrust his head, an
other head was now thrust out. 1t

tongue kept darling out and in. Two
