The individual who merits and re-

he who abuses confidence. because he

The law accounts every man accused

Barrow saw a middle-aged man
walking slowly along the path
that bordered the pond. He
stopped few yards beyond them
and stood idly glancing over the
smooth stretch of water.
Presently his gaze wandered to
them. and the well bred stare
gradually gave way to a puzzled
expression. He seated himself
on a bench. Miss Weir became
aware that he was watching her

When Jack Barrow called that
evening, Hazel told him simply
that she had left Harrington &
Bush, without entering into any
explanation except the general
one that she had found 1t impos-
sible to get on with Mr.. Bush In
her new position. And Jack, be-
ing more concerned with her than
with her work, gave the matter
scant consideration.
This was on a Friday.
Sunday she spent with Jack
Barrow. They parted, as was
their custom, at the door. 1t was
still early in the evening-S:3O,
and at Hazel's entrance the land
lady greeted her with a startling
bit of news:
"Evenin', Miss Weir. Ave you
card about Mr.. Bush, pore gen.
tleman?" Mrs. Stout was very
English.
"Mr. Bush? No. What about
him?"
"'E was 'urt shockin' bad this
awft'noon," Mrs. Stout related.
"Out 'orseback ridin', and is
'orse ran away with i'm, and fell
on i'm. The pore man isn't ex-
pected to live. rs backs broke,

Miss Weir voiced perfunctory
sympathy, as was expected OF
her, seeing that she was an en-
ploye Of the firm-or had been
