"I'm anxious to do some
thing for him"

Tor growing boys"
Trevor consented to except his
orstwhile. brother-in-laws note
FOR thirty thousand dollars, pay
able In ninety days. Philip was
surprised at his willingness to
accommodate him.
'Why, certainly-of course
surely, Phil. Glad to do any
little thing I can for you. De-
lighted to oblige you. I'll ask
Mr.. Ryder to fix you up. He's
our trust officer, takes care OF
such matters -
Phillip thought cynically after
the interview was over, that Ire
vor had been so agreeable in
order to win his approval and
shut his mouth in case he was
inclined to talk. He suspected
the man rested uneasy in regard
to his wife. II would be rather
embarrassing for Mr.. Stanley
Trevor, Of the Market Street Bank.
% explain why Mrs. Stanley
Trevor was behind a counter in
the Emporium, earning twelve dol
lars a week. 1t was probable
that Philip alone knew the cir
cumstances, and therefore it
doubtless appeared discreet to
grant Mr.. Baldwin his little
favor
Pocketing the check, Philip left
the. bank, conscious Of contempt
for both himself 2nd Trevor. He
chafed under the necessity which
had driven him to accept the mans
assistance.

But as the days succeeded one
another. and fresh complications
heset him, he realized more and
more he was in no position to
question any source from which
he got help. There began slowly

suspicion Of his own mental lin

ness. the ability to carry Wilbur's
schemes on to success. He grew
nettled, then dumbfounded. at his
0wn dullness. He found he could
not concentrate, could not grasp
the essential significance of facts
presented to him Men called
upon him to advise, or seek ad
vice. to press their claims, or
explain an unexpected contingency
that had arisen. Philip would
listen attentively following word
by word, but the point at issue
would escape him. He tried des-
perately to understand, asked these
men again and again to repeat
what they had said, or to explain
q little more fully. But when they
had compiled a third or fourth
time with this request, and he
was still unenlightened, he was
too much ashamed to press them
further, and hid his obtuseness
behind his old manner of thought
full elaboration. venting his dis
satisfaction with himself and them

clgm of his employees.
To get out-just to get out"
he said in half whisper, between
his teeth, sitting alone in his
office and staring blindly at large

ment fastened on the wall.

Trent was already there and mix
ing cocktails in the library.a He
was a large man who must have
had superb figure before it grew
heavyS He wore the moustache OF
his generation and in common with
what was left of his hair it glis-
tened like crystal His black eyes
were still very bright and his full
loose mouth wore the slight smiTk
peculiar to old men whose sex van
ity perishes only in the grave Be.
side him stood man some ten
years younger who was in the
CRAVING period, which gave him a
somewhat dried and dusty look;
but whose figure was still slender
and whose hard outlines OF faes
were as yet unblurred by flesh.
They were, Of course, faultlessly
groomed, but if met in the wilds OF
Africa, clad in rags and bearded
like the jungle, to the initiate they
still would have been New York
ers.
