Postpones Vacation After WorklridJ Day and Night For a Week. I remember the morning when wgs first met and he told me about it. His step was light and springy. EUs color was good. His eye was bright. "Yes," he said in answer to my in quiry, "we are getting ready to go on our vacation." "nave you arranged" "I'm just doing that now; have givers' up tho day to it." Later I met him again. "Not off yet?" I asked. "Not yet. It takes a little time to. ndjust things. There's quite a lot to do. But," he continued brightly, "IT all goes well we shall be started by the first of tho week, Tuesday at the very latest." The next day I ran across him in the bank. He apologized for running inter me. "Somewhat of a rush." he said;: "havo had to fix up a lot of odds anil ends et my book balanced and luj out certain schedules" "That's all right," I said sympathet ically. "I understand. You nre" "Getting along nicely," he muttered, with n slightly tired voice, ns he rusuedd away. Two dnys passed. Suddenly I raw across him in the postolllce. He car ried a bundle of mail. He dragged! one foot feebly after the other. "Still at it?" I asked. 'Stlll getting! ready for that vncation?" "Yes," ho whispered. "Say. maybo I haven't been working like n slave!'" He glnnecd at his wntch. "Must hur ry to meet my wife. She wants me tc help her pick out some clothes. AncEl me up to my cars!" "Haven't got things fixed yet?" "No, no! But I hope to b Monday Been working every night for a week But maybo we won't havo a good timo when we get off! The thought of it Is all that keeps me alive." He shuffled away. Could this de crepit creature be the sprightly one o" n week ago? Days passed. A weelc later I met him again. Ho looked bet ter. He was walking slow. "Hello!" I cried. "I thought yorcs were going on that vacation." "I was, but"- "You don't mean to say that youa gave it up?" He nodded. "I had to," ho .replied. "The doctor said that In my condition it wasn't: safe to get far away from home." Tom Masson in Puck. Tourists Tako Warning.
