CHAPTER xxx.

When the great Anderson estate went into court for settlement, "there wasn't any," George Anderson said that is, when the settlement was con- cluded there was no estate. He re- preached himself bitterly for not hav- ing long ago discovered that his fa- ther had never given Isabel deed to her house. And those pigs, Sydney and Amelia p he added, for this was another thing he was bitter about. "They won't do anything. I'm sorry I gave them the opportunity of making a polished refusal. The estate was bad ly crippled, even before they took out their third, and the third they took was the only good rart of the rotten apple Well, I didn't ask them for res titution on my own account, and at least it will save you some trouble, young George. Never waste any time writing to them; you mustn't count on them"
 q don't,' George said quietly. q don't count on anything"
 ."Oh. we'll not feel that things are quite desperate" Anderson laughed,

that his health would suffer, and he carriage. He had not realized the great change.
 The streets were thunderous, a vast energy heaved under the universal coating of dinginess. George walked through the begrimed crowds of hur- rying strangers and saw no face that he remembered. Great numbers of faces were even of kind he did not remember ever to have seen; they were partly like the old type that types he knew abroad. He saw Ger man eyes with American wrinkles at their corners; he saw Irish eyes and Neapolitan eyes, Roman eyes, Tuscan eyes, eyes of Lombardy, of Savoy, Hungarian eyes, Balkan eyes, Scandi- navian eyes-all with queer Ameri- can look in them. He saw Jews who were no longer German or Russian or Polish Jews. All the people were soil ed by the SmokemiSt through which they hurried under the heavy sky that hung close upon the new skyscrapers, and nearly all seemed harried by something impending, though here and there a woman With bundles would be laughing to a companion about some adventure of the department store, or perhaps an escape from the charging traffic of the streets-and not infre- quently girl, or free-and-easy young matron, found time to throw an encouraging look to George.
 He took no note of these, and, leav- ing the crowded sidewalks turned

 "You did at the timei' he cried. 'You said enough then, think. Well, what have you to say now, if you're so sure was wrong?"
 Nothing, George"
 Its only because you're afraid to!' he said and he went on with a sudden bitter diviuation: You're reproach- ing yourself with what you had to do With a'l that; and you're trying to make up for 1t by doing and saying what you think mother would want you to. and you think 1 couldn't stand 1t if I got to thinking l might have done differently.

north into National avenue, and pres ently reached the quieter but no less begrimed region of smaller shops and old-fashioned houses. Those latter had been the homes of his boyhood play. mates, old friends of his grandfather had lived herein this alley he had fought with two boys at the same time, and whipped them; in that front yard he had been successfully leased into temporary insanity by Sunday school class of pinky little girls. On that Sagging porch laughing woman had fed him and other boys with doughnuts and gingerbread; yonder he saw the staggered relics of the iron picket fence he had made his white pony jump, on dare, and in the shabby, stone-faced house behind the fence he had gone to children's par ties. and, when he was a little older he had danced there often, and fallen in love with Mary Sharon, and kissed her, apparently by force, under the stairs in the hall. The double front uOOIS, Ol Nu1 fCh U once so glossily vanished, had been painted smoke gray but the smoke grime showed repulsively, even on the smoke gray; and over the doors q smoked sign proclaimed the place to be a "Stag hotel.'
 This was the last "walk home" he was ever to take by the route he was now following: up National avenue to Anderson addition and the two big old houses at the foot of Anderson boulevard; for tonight would be the last night that he and Fanny were to spend in the house which the Major had forgotten to deed to Isabel. To- morrow they were to "move out" and George was to begin his work in Bron- sons office. He had not come to this collapse without a fierce struggle-but the struggle was inward, and the roll ing world was not agitated by 1t, and rolled calmly on. For of all the ideals of life" which the world, in its rolling, inconsiderately flattens out to nothingness, the least likely to retain a profile is that ideal which depends upon inheriting money. George Am person, in spite of his record of fail- ures in business, had spoken shrewdly when he realized at last that money, like life, was Hike quicksilver in nest of cracks" And his nephew had the awakening experience of seeing the great Anderson estate vanishing into such a nest-in twinkling; it seemed, now that it was indeed so ut- terly vanished.
 On this last homeward walk of his, when George reached the entrance to Anderson addition-that is, when he came to where the entrance had for merly been-he gave q little start, and halted for moment to stare. This was the first time he had no- ticed that the stone pillars, marking the entrance, had been removed. Then he realized that for long time he had been conscious of a queerness about this corner without being aware of what made the difference. National

CHAPTER xIx-continued.

A month after her death he walked abruptly into Fanny's room, one night, and found her at her desk, eagerly adding columns of figures with which she had covered several sheets of pa- per.
 George! You startled me-

 She turned in her chair and looked at him solicitously. "Sit down, George, won't you?"
 "No. just wanted|''
 q could hear you walking up and down in your room," said Fanny. "You were doing it ever since dinner, and it seems to me you're at it almost every evening. don't believe it's good for you-and l know it would worry your mother terribly if she" Fan ny hesitated.
 "See here," George said, breathing fast, T want to tell you once more that what I did was right. How could I have done anything else but what I did do2'
 "Oh, I don't pretend to judge" Fan ny said soothingly, for his voice and gesture both partook of wildness. q know you think you did. George'
 "'Think I didr" he echoed violent ly. My God in heaven" !" And he began to walk up and down the floor. What else was there to do? What choice did I have? Was there any other way of stopping the talk?" He stopped, close ill front of her, gestic- ulating. his voice harsh and loud "Was there any other way on earth of protecting her from the talk2"
 Miss Fanny looked away. Tt died down before long, think" she said nervously.
 "That shows was right, doesn't it?'' he cried. "If hadn't acted as I did, that slanderous old Johnson woman would have kept on with her islanders she'd still be-"
 "No," Fanny interrupted. "She's dead. She dropped dead with apoplexy one day about six weeks after you left. I didn't mention it in my let ters because I didn't want-I thought"
 Well, the other people would have kept on, then. They'd have"
 q don't know" said Fanny, still averting her troubled eyes. Things are so changed here, George. The oth- CT people you speak of-one hardly knows what's become of them. Of course not a great many were doing the talking, and they-well, some of them are dead and some might as we'll be-you never see them any more and the rest, whoever they were, are probably so mixed in with the crowds of new people that seem never even to have heard of us-and I'm sure we certainly never heard of them-and people seem to forget things so soon they seem to forget anything. You can't imagine how things have changed here !"
 George gulped painfully before he could speak. "You-yOu mean to sit there and tell me that if I'd just let things go on Ohl" He swung away, walking the floor again. q tell you

The fact that the farmer has bought

THE FARMER ANO
THE MOTOR TRUCK
F. w. Fem Tells to What Extent
Transportation is Being De
veloped as an Aid to
Agriculture.

F. w. Fem, secretary of the motor
truck committee of the National Auto
mobile Chamber of Commerce, Inc, New
York, read a paper ut the recent confer
encc OF National Association of Motor
Truck Sales Managers, in Detroit on
"Dcveloping the Farmer as a Buyer Of
Motor Trucks" The following is quoted
from the paper
We hear many people say, "the farmer
market can never he considered one of
very great value" giving as a reason the
fact that it cannot consume sufficient
tonnage to he of much value and therefore
is worth very little sales effort.
As matter of fact, the farmer has been
buying trucks and IS still buying them, al
though very little sales effort was used to
influence him lie has become a buyer Of
motor trucks because he needed them on
his farm. and every year he is going to
need them in greater quantities than be
does at present
Now, although sales have not been
directed to the farmer, he is today, never
thcless, bigger user Of motor trucks than
any other single branch Of American in
dlstrv. The Department Of Agriculture
reports that there were $4,000 motor
