Ather until his death. when she was
Alrty-seven. No opportunities came

whom birth has made superior to
rest Of the community. And. be-
es. Elsie was already growing into
x typical old maid. She was becom-
9 angular and thin. there were gray
reaks In her hair. and she knew
bite well that whatever beauty she
lais ever possessed was already gone
beyond recovery.
Her life had been utterly cramped
Her bookish learning had never been
modified by contact with the world.
for her father had always been re-
cluse, and. In his last days, a fretful
invalid. When she met the drummer
she thought him typical man of the
world.
The acquaintance was a wonderful
thing to her. She felt guilty in steal
ing down to the garden gate when
Dick was coming that way-Thursdays
he always appeared in Bourne End.
She invented little excuses at first to
account for her presence there. Wist-
fully she thought how she would like
to ask him in. But she never dared.
It was not only fear of what the neigh
Jors would say. but fear of what he
would think of her.
1t was odd that the uncouth drum
mer should exercise so strange fasci-
nation over the old maid, but It was
equally strange that he should find in
her his ideal of womanhood. Two or
three years passed. and their intimacy
stayed exactly where 1t was. Neither
dared to increase 1t. or to venture to
speak of the thoughts in the heart
Dick was becoming balder and stouter
and Elsie more w.thered and lean.
Then came the day when Dick was
amazed to see the house closed and d
big "For Sale" sign in front of 1t. The
town was buzzing with the news. Miss
Elsie's lawyer. who had had charge
Of her property, had absconded. taking
with him her whole available fortune
ten thousand dollars.
Miss Elsie had remained secluded In
The house since the Monday before
! Dick hesitated only moment; then
ae went into the garden and knocked
at the door.

.'Might I ask your price. ma'amg'

'Might ask your price, ma'amT
inquired Dick.
Eight thousand dollars" answered
Miss Elsie listlessly. ut ought to be
more, but the house is very old. and
that's what I'm advised to hold it for"
Dick thought hurriedly. He knew
that would mean about three thousand
cash and mortgage. Dick was worth
about three thousand; he could ar
range the details.
"I'll buy it," he announced.
"You" gasped Elsie.
YES. ma'am. You see, I've had my
eye on the place for long time, in
the hopes you might some day SELL
The words struck her like blow be-
tween the eyes. So that was the Sc
cret of his interest. The vanity of
her dreams
II suppose you can have it, then"
he heard her answer vaguely.
Everything in 1t as 1t stands, lock,
stock and barrel?" asked Dick.s
''Why, 1 guess the furniture's not
worth much" said Miss Elsie. you'll
have to see my brother, Mr.. Van Nu-
gent, at Staples He has charge Of the
matter"
"But if he is willing, you are?" per-
sisted Dick
"Yes," she replied.
Dick withdrew. He wanted to hide
the elation in his heart, that set 1t
pounding frightfully as he reflected
upon his maneuver. He clenched his
fists as he thought of the lawyer. He
had known Sharples well; the man
was conyivial person at the hotel.
IF ever run across him, I'll break
his Lead" he swore.

illness of fellow drummer. The
business done. Dick retired to his
room in the hotel.
A door opened softly. and Dick saw
the head and shoulders Of Sharples.
In a minute he had leaped across the
passage and entered. before the law
yer could draw the bolt.
Sharples stared at Dick in terror.
what do you want?" he snarled.
"You know" said, Dick.
Sharples realized that IT. was no
time to make pretenses. ITS, not

give you five hundred to get out and
keep your mouth shut"
"You'll give me ten thousand for

"It never was ten thousand"

Dick went to the telephone and
touched the receiver, The lawyer
grabbed him by the arm. "I'll give

Dick turned and faced him. IT said
ten. and meant it." he returned. "And
see here! promised myself the
pleasure of breaking your head. How

Will you hand over that ten thousand.

The lawyer took bill case out of
his pocket and mechanically counted
out the money. There were twenty
bills of five hundred apiece. Dick ex-
amined them: they were genuine
enough.

said.
"It's where you won't get it."
Dick smiled and slipped the bills

succeeded, the recert opening of a

Bv United Press
CHICAGO, Jan. 5.-Wheat dropped
fractionally in opening selling on the
Chicago Board of Trade today.
Other grains followed. Although
sentiment continued bullish the dis
position at the start was to await
new incentives on which to base
further buying.
Selling in wheat was inspired by
unresponsive cables. Liverpool and
Argentine were sharply lower. Com
mission houses and local profess
SIGNALS were heaviest 1quidators
Corn followed the leading cereal.
Sentiment was mixed. Oats were off

for smaller marketings of poultry.
There has been a better demand
during 1925 than there was in 1924,
when consumption was curtailed by
a widespread poultry epidemic. There
is a shortage of storage poultry,
which should mean sustained prices
during the spring.
No basic figures point, to any over
production in the poultry industry
for the next two years and while
speculative dealers are naturally IN.
clined to be ''bearish," the poultry
outlook is an optimistic one.
