CHAPTER XIV.
Moths.

In li-health or convalescence, or
worry or tribulation, the ordinary
mind does not turn to Milton or
Shakespeare. or even to the sermons
Of Charles Haddon Spurgeon. There
are few classics that will stand the
test of a cold in the head. or a At of
depression, or worrying husband. or
a minor tragedy. Here the writer of
light fiction" stands Arm.
Jones had never been a great read
er, he had read cheap novel or two,
but his browsings in the literary fields
had been mainly confined to the up
lands where the grass is improving.
Color, poetry and construction in
fiction were unknown to him. and

west, and q road across the clfis to

Northbourne, seaside town some six
or seven miles away; the westerly
road to Southbourne, some fifteen
miles off. London lay sixty miles to
the north. The railway touched the
London road at Houghton Admiral
station some nine miles up the line.
That was the position. Should he
train at Houghton Admiral, or take
the road to Northbourne and get
train from there?
The three ways lay before him like
the three fates and he determined on
the London road.
However, man proposes and God
dsposes.
He folded up the map, put it in his
pocket and started for home--or, at

himself face to face with Hoover.

The exclamation was elected from
him. so to speak, by the mental shock

prey. What happened then was de-

draper across the way, to friend.
