rOHN M. LEYDA,
HELLO, OLD MAN 1"
knew that opposite to hlin, Kuinowhore
amid the ciirriiij.'etj ranged Inside the
rail, was her snowy parasol with Its
flontltiK rtlllles of chiffon. It seemed
to him that this panisol-lier parasol
otiKht to stand out lieforu hint lili7.oned
with Uie word "Alice." Itut fifty, a
hutulrtsl, parasols, nil snowy, nil mass
ed In chiffon, met his straining eyes.
When some months previous to this
dnte Mr. HishlliiK had awakeniil to the
fact that the acijunliitance, ostenslhly
ccsiml, betwiH'tt his datiKhter and yotini?
Inirr was nsstiniln a more serious
asect he very promptly set his paren
tal foot sijnarely tipou tlio whole affair.
For the present un ehuacemcnt was
qnlte out of the question. Harold was
only a clerk, who, although he jhis-
scsmiI nliuntlant ilans nnd nmhltions,
hud not realized upon thum.
It was U'tter thnt for nwhlle Inter
course cease. II in time liaroni pniveu
worthy, socially nnd In a huslness way,
possIHy he inlht npiln try his chances.
Thus, midst tears and vows from
the daughter nnd Indignant initesta
tlons nnd resolves hy the lover, Mr.
KeddltiK carried his jMilnt. Harold en
tered upon an Indefinite term if probation.
The vAAi were In favor of Mr. Ked-
dinn finally yielding. He saw thnt bis
daughter was utterly mlserahle, nnd,
after till, Harold's character was nhuve
reproach. lNiverty was the lad's only
druwhiiek, one which the hanker was
stronj-'ly conslderliiK remedylni,'.
Still today, as for many forecolns
ihiys, llamld was on one side of the
track, Alhv on the other.
It wn-s now 3 o'clock. Several races
had tieen dispatched, and the next upon
the proi-Tainine was of Intense hx-al In
UtcsL It waa a contest In which were
enteral two horsts which had loinj
Imi-ij kiH-n rivals, whose owners had
agrtHsl to make this match a decisive
tent.
The fevor of spctilatlon was waxing
more and more turbulent in the crowd.
Harold himself had no Idea of wnjrer
Ing. He had lieen bnum'ht up to be
lieve that lietthifc' was wrong. IWsldes,
he could not afford to Ut, and It was
his theory that usually the winners are
those porsona who do not vitally care.
However, everybody anuiHl him was
betting. -erjtKKly was Uilklng horse.
bntit v buzslmj. T'.ie co!.t;;c!cn had ,
1'i'cti too tinln ulll to be rcs'sied. Half j

far as he dared he ilU-wis! n pe.t'.i t. a
spot whence l.e could read tie nVmvs
chalked on the hoard beside a book-
maker's ho. Seven l'; was soiling at
odds id' .' to Z
What a chance With his $10 he c mU
fail! ?J.". lie would hm the money to
start a savings bank aecvcmt for him
self and Alice. He had tried bis best
to save, but had been unable. Surely
In such a cause betting was not w icked.
Thus he reasoned.
If only he had more money available.
Itut the $10 was the extent, (if course
there In his hip pocket revised the $loo
that he had received Just as lie had
been closing the oitiee for the half holi
day. It was part payment on a pleee
of real estate. Mr. l'.eiitliome. his em
ployer, had gone, and the safe was
locked, so Harold had placed the the
twenty dollar bills securely In his
pocket until the next day.
Now. not for an Instant did he con
sider I'ltrenchiiij; upo-i this sum. No,
he was sane even If be was excited.
And he was honest.
Suddenly he cast hesitation to the
winds. He stepped forward and hand
ed his bill to the tiookiimUcr.
"tin Seven rp," he said.
In exchange be received a bit of gray
card, like n ticket, with hieroglyphics
on It which slKiilllcd that he had wa
gered with bookmaker No. M $lo to $L'5
that Seven l'p would pass the wire
first.
As he was pocketing the ticket and
taking refuge In the tlmuglit that If he
lost " 'twould nil be the same In u hun
dred years" his eyes encountered the
eyes of Mr. Penthorne, who was but a
few yards distant In the crowd. Mr.
r.enthorne smiled and shixik Ills head.
He must have witncssi-d the transac
tion. Harold, with a guilty sensation,
ho knew not why, smiled in return mid
sought n place In the amphitheater
nlxive.
Hardly had he seatitl himself ere the
race was called. The horses gathered
at the post. In the amphitheater some
body Stood the better to see. Then the
movement spread like n wave, and the
whole amphitheater was on Its feet.
SomelKidy brazenly climbed upon a
chair. Immediately the brazen throng
climbed upon its chairs also.
The horses fidgeted. A wait, n shift
ing of Misltions, a warning from tin
starter down they came; a ctntf-r-thcy
were off! And a very pretty start It
was.
"Imp! Imp! (lo It, Imp!"
"Seven Up! Seven Up:"
"Mascot"
Voices shouted and shrieked In exul
tation, entreaty and encouragement
Hubbub reigned, engulting alike the
frenzied and the self ixisscsmsI. Just

Harold felt himself clone Inert He
was pervaded by vague discontent
fcverj'l'O'lJ' wus winning; nobody was
losing, except the pool sellers, nnd tlutf
w ere legitimate sisill.
To unlet Ids unrest he arose and
strolled out toward the stairs. Im
pelled onward, he descended and In nn
Instant was seized by the mob gyrating
alsiiit the bookmakers' stands
A band clapped him on the shoulder,
nnd lie heard a vohv in his ear:
'Hello, old man! Want n good thing?'
He twisted his neck nnd looked be
hind l.lm and saw that the scaker
was Mcky Saddler-red faced llttlo
Hlcky, a race track habitue.
"I'm not N'ttlng," replied Harold.
"Oh, I'shnw," scoffed Meky. "I'ut

Harold pushed through the throng
and on the outaklrts sought a corner

behind Harold a woman lentKsl for
ward and, snnpplng her Angers, scream
ed Incsantly:
"Gome on. Seven Up! Come on, S--en
Up! Come on. Seven Up!"
Harold, outwardly unaffected, said
nothing, but with fervent curiosity fol
lowed the struggling bunch of horses.
"Seven Up! Come on. Seven Up!"
"Imp will win," calmly announced a
man beside Harold, closing his field
glass with a satisfied snap.
Around the last turn. Into the home
stretch, ndown the home stretch, irped
the horsvs, all but the. two lenders en
veloped In eddying dust
"Imp! Imp! Imp'!"
"Come on. Sewn Up! Come on, Sev

A wntlng of tints and pamsnls. a vol

not by Seven Up.
"I lost a dollar!." Harold heard tho
woman behind him bemoaning. He ab
stracted from his pocket his ticket nnd
stoically scattered It In pieces. No more
betting for him. He had learned his
lesson and had received what he de
served. Mis hanlcally he put his hand back to
