But they never .vet had the money

It vvns ccrtnlnly practicable, for otln

unpromising tlnn over, Waller hml
held a serious eoiHiiltntlon with Nellie.
"I l:now no trade." lie confi-sed,
"The elty Is probably crowded with
Just such unnceesful and disappoint,
od fellows as myself, but It must offer
some opportunities to a willing man."

spent two hour nt du-k trollIn;
nhpiit the streelH thinking It all nvei;
and lleehled Jo s'nrt bark for hotnij
the next morn'ne. There enme a slight
sprinkle of rain and. as he wore lit i
best suit of clothing, Walter stepped
baelc Into the entrance of n hroa
doorway Just alxive a fnshlonable re.
taurant. "Supper rooms' uptalr." Ikj
read on an Illuminating globe and It
made him think- of home, for hN prn
ender for the day had been light.
ITo had hut two dollars In his pocket
and vvns saying of thnt, for It would
take hlm only, two-thirds of the way
home.
As Walter stood under shelter n
inhldle-nged pian, opulence provnlllir;
in dress, ninnner nnd ornnment, cniinj
down 'the stairs, glanced nlong tlm
street, then Into tho lower restaurant
and then chanced to take Walter Willi
In his vision. Ho wore n light oven
coat of peculiar pattern and this hi
removed as ho re-entered the areh
wny, half halted, studied Walter close
ly and then approached him.
"Young nitui," he spoke, "have you
the time anil Inclination to partnko
of a very princely supper?"
"Why."' replied Walter, smiling at
tho oddity of the circumstance, "I
scarcely mulerrtnnd you."
"Very well. Some friend1! nro
gathered for n little banquet: othert
expected have not nrrlved. We urn
Just thirteen ns It Is, nnd the super'
stltlous ones won't sit down until we
have filled' the fourteenth chair."
"I shall he glad to be at your serv
ice," said Walter simply, nnd a few
minutes later found hlnielf one of n
party of men who suggested rellne
incut nnd wealth. He who had Invited
him' spoke un occnslonnl word to hlm,
but Walter did not Intrude upon the
general conversation.
"Such a meal 1" he toltl Nellie after,
ward, and nld It to himself. Tor two
hours, as a truly hungry man. Walter
reveled nt n table of luxury nnd
plenty. He thanked the man who hml
Invited hlm when the repast was over
and came down to the street alone like
a man In a dream, lie started nt once
tor bis nnnrmng bouse, iinir way
d.Avn the block, Just ahead of hlm. a
man acting smplrlmisly stopped from
a thirl; alley. The rout he wore at
once tittraeted the intention or Walter.
It was the one be had noticed on hli
recent friendly ho-t. In n flush Wal
ter decided that the lurkor had stolen
the garment and had slipped out the
rear way with It.
"Just a lulnule. my friend." ho
spoke, hurrying to tho man nnd si Iv't;
him by the collar. "Stplen prnpi rty,
eh?" But the slick ihlef evaded de
tention by slipping out of the tr.nrn.et.'
nnd dirhingi nwuy.
Vnl'- returned to tlm hnmpiet n.nu
to tell his story. Thc owner of tho
coat cMltcdly rummaged the garment,

"I nid a little money to pay part
of my wny home m my wife and chil
dren," teplled Walter fiankly.
"Wife and chlldien? That sounds
Interesting to a lonely old bachelor.
Come, sit down and tell me about II."
And because ho of opulence vvns
whole-hearted nnd sympathetic, and
because Walter told tho truth In his
Blmple story, when ho left tho city
Walter carried with him stifilclcnt to
carry out nil his cherished farming
plnns, with his new friend uu Inter

Miss Detsy Lunc Shepherd, funious concert

1S5 public audiences, in 185 cities, have
heard her compare her voice with its Ui
Crt.ation by the New -Edison. No one,
out of tt total of more than 100,000 lis
teners, has been able to tell when Miss
Shepherd vassinin:!. nd when the New
Edison except
4,000 similar tests of direct comparison,
made by over fifty other celebrated vocal

same result.
