tion is very apt to prove
true.

as the organic phosphate known among drusgists

CHAPTER v.

Along the well-remembered streets
of Sequoia Bryce Cardigan and his
father walked arm in arm, their
progress continuously interrupted by
well-meaning but impulsive Sequoians
who insisted upon hating the pair to
shake hands with Bryce and bid him
welcome home. In the presence Of
those third parties the old man quickly
conquered the agitation he had felt
at this long-deferred meeting with his
son, and when presently they left the
business section of the town and
turned into a less-frequented street,
his emotion assumed the character
of quiet Joy. evidenced in more
erect bearing and firmer tread, as

misfortunes, drew the old man little
closer to his side.
"Whats wrong with your eyes, pail"
he queried. He did not often address
his parent, after the fashion of most
sons, us Father" Dad" or "Pop,"
They were closer to each other than
that, and a rare sense of perfect COM
