THE VENEER OF THE YEARS
BY WALTER CREEP.

to recall something. Then he turn
ed back to Merlin and went on:
when l was a boy like you l
was very ambitious. l had Tread
in a great number Of books about
young men getting anything in the
world they wen. after provided
they had the necessary amount Of
ambition and perseverance. And
l heartily believed this. AS l had
been born poor, in little Georgia
town, there seemed very little
chance of my rising. Yet was de-
termined to make a success of my
self. I set my aim to become
President and started out to work
myself up"
Merlin smisled and the narrator.
noting this, smiled also. at does
seem little bit ambitious" he
said, but 1t is no more impossible
for boy in my circumstance to be-
come President than for a country
greenhorn to become editor of
some large newspaper at the very
beginning"
A cynical and curious smile was
playing around the westerner's lips.
Merlin looked at him very closely.
1t seemed they had met before. He
continued:
well, in the little town where
l lived, l had sweetheart. l had
known her all my life and esteemed
her for her gentle nature and I'M
blemished purity. Finally we were
engaged. l gave her small dia-
mond ring and she gave a little
ring to me as a token"
about this time my ambition
got the better of me and l decided
| would go out In the world and do
something. i was well educated
for one Of my chances, had
smooth tongue and believed the
world would welcome me with op-
en- arms My mother and father
begged me to give up the idea but
this only made me more determin-
ed. | vowed the home-folks were
trying to keep me down in the
world and did not care for my well
fare"
"At length my parents with
drew their objections, and / prepar-
ed to leave. Before going, howev-
er, ! made a vow with Miriam that
we were to remain true to each 9TH
er through life or death"
Then | left. l went from my
home to Chicago, and finding

west. | had eight hundred dollars
on my person--all my fathers saw
ings-and when | arrived | liberal
ly tipped a miner for finding me a
position. In turn he invited me
around to a gambling house that
night. Like the fool that | was, /
went, The miners welcomed me
with much show of brotherly feel
ing and drank my health in glasses
OF whiskey Then they asked me
10 drink with them. At first | re-
fused but being pressed, yielded.
One drink followed another until

CHAPTER vi.
THE WESTERNER'S STORY.


When he returned from his
breakfast in the dining car he
found his seat already occupied.
But as the occupant seemed to be
genial and agreeable he did not
seek another but sat down beside
the stranger. He was man OF
very large stature, Merlin noticed,
with iron gray hair and pointed
moustache. Not much of his face
could be seen as he seemed intent
on looking out of the window. His
clothes were loose-ftting and he
wore great sombrero. This salts
fed the young Kentuckian that his
strange seat mate was westerner
of the genuine type-perhaps a
cowboy. So he sat and gazed in
rapt wonder.
"Ah, ah, | must have stolen your
seat" said the stranger, suddenly
turning a pair Of dark eyes on him
so quickly he jumped with sur
prise.
"Oh, there's room enought for
both if you don't object to my COM
pany," answered Merlin laughingly.
Certainly not. Where are you
bound for, young MANI"
ITO Smithville, Colorado"
Relatives there, ! suppose?"
mo"
"Friends?"
mo"
"Have you some business con-
nection there, them"
mot as yet" answered Merlin,
but l hope to have soon. l am
going there to look for a position"
My young friend, l don't like
to discourage you, said the strang-
err" but | am afraid you will have
a hard time finding position in
Smithville. And if you do, 1t
would not be the kind of a place
you would want to spend your life
in. Temptations are SO many
there"
But | can overcome any tempta-
tion!" declared Merlin as he had
done once before in a fiower-garden
far away. He quickly noticed the
REPETITION.
II thought the same thing years
ago when ! left my home" said the
stranger, | was young then and fun
of dreams that have all come TO
naught. 1t is a sad story. Would
you like to hear it,"
IL certainly would"
"Well, as you are young man
and in about my position, | will
tell you the whole story though |
wouldn't everyone. Perhaps you
rlay gain something from my ex-
perience that will help you to sue
coed where / failed. At least Il
may cause you to be more careful
than l was and not lose so much
as | did"
The stranger sighed and looked
out OF the window as though trying

II have suffered for the last
two winters with that terrible
disease, LaGrippe. Having often
heard OF the great value of Pc
runa I decided to try II. have
only used four bottles and l do
not now have any bad effects
from the Grippe as 1t has just

satisfied that Peruna is a WON
derful remedy, and I do most
heartily endorse and recommend
IL for LaGrippe."
