given as 3,550, Is in reality only I!S0. Hu
hadn't thu manhood nbout him to bring
along his 2S0 sheets of white paper and de

drives up with two whole bundles, nnd
then pretends ho has run short. Two men
were kept hard at work nil day, nnd hun
dreds of sheets of paper wore recklessly
wasted, that thu old hypocrite nnd falsifier
might flatter himself that we were deceived.

"Go!"
No, tills is not tho story of a horso race.
Tho monosyllable that heads this chapter
was hurled by the Marquis do Bllletto at

"Yes, I can, fathur," said tho yo.mg man
In n hard, metallic voice, which harmo
nized well wiih tho steely glitter in his
eye and his bru.en front. "Either you for

In four minutes tho haughty nobleman
had found his mind nnd in thirty seconds
more had mndo it up.
"You havo won," said ho. "But llttlu

your nature that you have today revealed."

"Well, whatever you did," shu wont on,
"I want to say It was short half a pound,
and If it happens thnt way again I'll quit

Hy this time the proprietor had come for

"Of course, I did; nro you denff"
"No, madam, but I was upon tho third
