Two and a Bridge
BY ANDERSON MILLER


&c 1921 by Mcclure Newspaper syndicAte.)
The primal command to Adam TO
earn his bread by the sweat of his
brow was certainly being applied lit
orally in his own case, thought Robert
Owen gloomily. as he regarded the
moist lump that represented what had
been, a few hours ago, fresh and
Bpotless handkerchief. The train was
moving leisurely through a district in
western Pennsylvania where there was
not tree, as far as he could see
through the grimy windows, that was
more than ten feet high.
The sun beat down on the country,
and from the gray green earth re-
flected heat waves leaped back, quiv-
ering and distorting the view. Owen
though clad as lightly as possible, was
literally sweltering.
He thought regretfully of the cool
quiet Of the club lounge which he had
left twenty hours before; the shaded
veranda, the icy shower baths, the in
MIGRATING chill of the swimming pool
And he had let the chief talk him
into making this trip ON the off chance
of getting the contract for putting up
bridge over some forSaken river or
other in the wilds of the state, off the
main line
He groaned as he thought that he
would probably be marooned up there
for the better part of week, inter
viewing county commissioners and
highway experts In little boxlike Of
fees that smell of dust and were
abominably hot.
He mopped his brow again, more
from force of habit than with any ex-
pectation of mitigating his discomfort.
and glanced out of the window at the
station which the train was at that
