"G0u!'' groaned poor Tom in the
abyss of his wretchedness. Eyes, I'll
do it! 1 will! / will"
The other clapped him roughly on
the shoulder with saturnine leer and
attempt at jocular fellowship.
well, | thought cha would" he
rasped hoarsely. "We'll meet cha at
the corner by the lumber yard at 80.
Don't you fail to be there now"
II won't. I'll be there all right !"
Tom muttered brokenly. Already in
his cringing soul he felt like the thief
he had pledged himself to become. Oh
heaven, If only
To kill time until the appointed
hour, he dug his numb hands deeper
down into his pockets and wandered
aimlessly on. He had no particular
objective in mind save only the need
to keep moving lest he freeze or go
mad with the strain of waiting He
shrank from letting himself think of
the deed to which he was about to be
party.
Involuntarily his dragging footsteps
took him back into the more brilliant
ly lighted retail shopping district,
where the crowds already had thinned,
hurrying home to their families and
happy, expectant kiddies with the holt
day celebration in mind.
The hours dragged slowly by. 1t
came near the hour for the stores to
close. But still there was time, if
poor Tom had only had money, to
have rushed in, bought the presents
he wanted for the old folks and chill
dren, and caught the midnight train
back to the country. He easily could
reach there by morning and appear as
a joyous surprise to them
But ali! Why drive himself to dis
traction by thinking of that when
there was no chance that
And right then, suddenly, he espied
it lying there, almost at his very feet
a big, fat wallet, with not a person
nearer than a hundred yards of him.
Plainly someone had lost it in their
mad haste to get home.
Tom stopped and scooped it up like
a fash. Around the corner he surrep-
titiously examined it. Bills-both
green and yellow, of large denomina-
tions-they fairly stuffed it! There
were seven hundred dollars or more
Ia small fortune to the miserable boy
who had not even eaten for fourteen
hours. Money! Money! Money
Far more than he possibly could need
even in his most extravagant dreams.
With a gurgling cry, Tom stuffed the
wad of bills into his trousers pocket,
threw away the fine leather purse and
made a mad dash for the nearest de-
partment store.
No need now to keep his sinister,
criminal appointment-no more neces-
sity for
But the most gladstone feature Of
young Toms homecoming that next
day was his blushing announcement to
the old folks that he had had enough
Of the big city: that he had come
home to stay. as they had prayed ne
would.
