The Old Orad Thinks It's Best to
In his time tho Old Grad had c-TafnI' congratulated myself on Its
pcrlenccd many things and his adye'n?r:b"rjlllahce.
tures have frequently been of a very ""Presently, however, I heard foot
thrllllng nature. Even now, In tho steps oh the walk at my left. At tho
quiet peacefulncss of the Bophomore's
study, he liked to plant the seeds of
reflection In the Idle brain of hla com
panion by relating samplea of these
marvels of strenuoslty and by point
ing out their application to the miser
able existence of tho undergraduate.
"No," he said conclusively, as he
placed himself before the warm, glow
ing stove and clasped his hands behind
his back. "No, you must not Judge
people by first impressions. If you are
reasonably certain that this new friond
of yours is all right, why, by all means
let him share your room. But be sure
of what you're getting. Don't size him
up by his clothes, or even by IUb habits.
You must know him personally.
"I think I can relato an experience
of my own that will make ,q idea
dearer. It wrisJn Jhe.daysvvhen, like
yourself, I was a sdphomorer With tho
usual recklessness 6t youth which I
fear you possess In rather abnormal de
gree I Bpent niy allowance layjBhly,
and soon set a pricfy for tho would-be
swells of (ho college' which' thoy had
much ado to equal. With 'poker and
beer and various other little amuse
ments I soon gained a notoriety that
I fear will impair my good namo at
that excellent school as long as I am
remembered there. I must confess that
I gumbled heavily and would doubtless
lrav soon brought myself to disgrace
with the faculty had not the little in
cident which 1 am about to relate
brought me to a realization of the true
character of the life I was leading and
the chance acquaintances I had fallen
into the habit of forming."
The- Old Grad paused and stood for
some time in silent meditation. At
lat with an evident effort, he re
sumed. "It was late when I left the club
house. The flickering arc-light glowed,
hut feebly in the darkness of the win-:
ter night, and even ns I closed the door
behind me they reddened suddenly ami
then died out. A solitary belated street
cat. like a frightened rabbit. Bcurriod
past on Its way to the barn. The wind
blew occasional (lurries of grimy snow
against my fnce. The streets wore de
serted. X
"Under these circumstances the long
walk to my room would usually have
been distasteful, but tonight it was
doubly so. My luck had been unusual
tho entire evening, and-1 loft my com
panions richer than when I met them
more than I care to say. I am not a
coward, I think, but times were hard
and sinister tales of mysterious rob
beries bad long been floating about. I
was half-Inclined to return and spend
tho night with my companions.
"But I reflected how they would
laugh at me. I would never hear the
last of the thing. So seldom did they
nave the chance to josh me that thoy
would never allow the opportunity to
pars unnoticed. I continued resolutely
on my way. 1
"For several blocks occasional office
lights kept mo company. My confidence
began to return. I evon found courage
enough to jingle lightly the money In
my pocket. Sometimes, too, a meeting
with a policeman on his round did
much to relieve my forebodings. But
when tho business part of town was
passed the case was different. Each
long, low terrace seemed to hide some
lurking villian. Every alley contained,
to my distorted fancy, some unspeak
able ruffian whom I momentarily ex
pected to attack me. No comforting
policeman's presence guarded me now.
No shop lights brightened the walk be
fore me. Tho old terror of darkness
which I had not experienced since a
child roturned. My step qulckenod al
most to a run.
"But If I ran the money In my pocket
jingled most alarmingly. I slackened
my pace again, and tried to think of
some new scheme to avert the danger,
which I had convinced myself was
threatening. But my fright Increased
at every step.
"Suddenly I had an Inspiration. If I
walked In tho middle of the street I
would, at leasl, be freo from 'surprise.
I could not be attacked from behind
without warning, and my way ahead
would bo clear. I acted at once on this

some tlmo we continued without n
greeting, but at last he called out to
me cheerfully:
" 'Wretched night, Isn't It?'
"His Voice was not tho voice of a
ruffian. It was a pleasant voice. Re
assured, I answered at once.
" 'Frightful. I think we're going to
have a blizzard.'
" "Huouiun t wonuer a uu., he nn-

T.ogeyier, I knew we should be safe.

', UR is, seldom indeed that I have met
BoTjCharmlng a gentleman as' my com
panion seemed to be. Never have I
conversed with a man whose views and
Ideas coincided' bo closely with myown.
HIb favorite authors wore petBiOfohlne.
My actors were his gods. Our. opinions
on the silver question were precisely
identical. I wa delighted with my new
friend. I explained to him the reason
for walking in the street. He laughed
quietly.
" 'Do you know.' ho said frankly, 'If
you hadn't been there, I would,' and
he related a story very similar to mine.
He. too, was carrying more money than
ho felt comfortable with. He, too, had
been in a small gathering of gentlemen
that evening, and luck had favored him
also. He chuckled again. It was With
genuine regret that I turned to bid him
good-night as I reached my home.
" 'Good-bye,' I said. 'I have enjoyed
your company very much. I hope I
may meet you ngaln.'
" 'I hopo you may,' he answered, and
L wns puzzled at his laughing heartily.
Ho did not take my proffered hand.
His own was in his coat pocket "Thank
you.' he continued politely, 'but per
haps I should have told you that 1
never talk without remuneration. In
other words, pray pardon tho slang
cough up!'
"Now his hand was out, biit It held a
loaded rovolvcr to my head I
'coughed.' "
