said the bureau chief with a chilly
note in his voice. i've seen lot of

report up to the secretary with your

Certainly"
Good bye, old man. My regards to

Goodbye. Mr.. McAll."
JENKINS PULvER strode back
} across the square. 1t was hot.
Tho world was weary. Reformers
were tiresome: no matter how well
intentioned, they did not understand.
And yet a man did get into ruts.
Then suddenly he thought of
Frances the desirable, patient,
healthy. human Frances. He didn't
think well Of the expression on
McAlps face when he had spoken to
her. Frances was not a bird Of
paradise. but. after all. she was
pretty, and. Of course, some man
might come and unlock all the ar
dent, restless things that had been
so long kept waiting for high pur-
poses. Pulver had never really
weighed this possibility before.
He was glad to see that she was
there when he hung up his coat and
took his seersucker with the pale
blue stripes out Of the old wardrobe.
she was there waiting with a pile of
letters.

late"
Frances looked back toward him.
She knew what the papers were that
he now held in his hand. She had
seen them develop as one sees q pic
ture develop on q Photographic plate.
To her, for some reason, the chief of
the bureau was no longer young
Gladstone; he was like q young boy
-ner own son.
III you want me-" she began-"if
you want me, Of course. even in the
evening. there il the telephone. I'd
be glad to help"
Thanks"
At the end Of three hours every
one had gone. The chief Of the bu-
reau sat over his desk. running down
columns Of figures with the point Of
his long forefinger. He read the par
agraphs of McAlrs long memorandum
with aching eyes. sometimes he
jumped up, went to the files, found
data for comparison, shook his head,
set his jaw, and threw his shoulders
back like q. martyr barring his chest

Pulver glanced at the picture Of

He believed it. He said: IF you do
not mind. McAll, we will dispense with
the autopsy"

We'll. all right"
They walked across the diagonal
path of the park and into the cool,
shaded luncheon room. Pulver was
conscious of the presence of gay
hearted wives of senators and mem
bers of the cabinet. In spite of his
more austere and humble life, he felt
conscious of his own Importance. He
was chief of the buearu. Not a
snowy position, but indispensable.
He liked to be in company where he
belonged by birth and worth. If not
by riches, and certainly where his re-

He had called her Frances on pur-
pose.
McAll lit long cigar and sat up
straight. breathing in as does one who
starts a dificult task.
II suppose you must know, Pulver,
that your bureau is doing good deal

He spoke of that as il it were con-
elusive. An important, indispensable
public servant could maintain pride
no less vigorous.
"Of course" said McAl1. II just
want to tell you, Jenk, old man, how
much admire the devotion you've
invested. It took persistence. cour-

It."

A T the end of three days McAll came
in little before twelve-thirty.
1t was no cool day. Spring had come
in Washington. Sometimes it comes in
lazy, listless fashion, like a lover who
is sure of allurements. but sometimes,
more rarely, it jumps the Potomac like
ar object of prey, passing swiftly. and
pursued hotly by summer. McAll, an
active man, wiped his forehead with
his handkerchief and stared out Of the
window at the shimmering, trenuloas
sunlight.

his malice sound like friendly, indul-
gent banter, I've been here for a
good many years, and I've seen a lot
of men come in with every new ad-

doing. But 1 tell you, McAll, a man
