organizations. However, he was not
ready for their capital.
Thoughtful figuring on -the part of
the Clnderburg capitalists.
The American Dnng Sun Engine
Manufacturing company was a differ
ent matter. It was a larger concern. In
corporated for a quarter of n million
dollars. It would, if nil went well, de
velop into n business of enormous ex
tent, perhnpi the most Important man
ufacturing proposition In the world.
Gentlemen, the main factory and the
headquarters of this monster organiza
tion were to be Instituted and held In
Clnderburg, making this beautiful little
city jone of the mot Important com
mercial centers In the middle west!
Wild applause.
There was no necessity for pointing
out the advantages of Investment In
the Clnderburg Bang Sun Engine.
Light, flcat and Tower comimny.
Equally obvious, he thought, were the
fcdrnntagw of luvestmoLt hi the Amer
ican Ban:; Sun Engine Manufacturing
company, for it would manufacture all
'the sun engines used In the United
States. However, he was not yet ready
for capital In this company. -A
magnificent suit of offices was

- and most Imposing skyscraper. In the
meantime Watllngford set Mr. Bang at
work upon some minute models of the
wonderful Bang sun engine, not over a i
foot In length and sis Inches In width
and two Inches In depth, neat and beau-
tiruny giiueu. ana tnese supported tue

shreds of tongues which alternated be
tween tiny electric magnets and after
, these had been set in the sun for a
short while they each set up a keen,
sharp, small, high note, like an Infant
cricket's, which snoke volumes for the
Tronuers mat tue big macnines could
accomplish.
J Then Mr. Wallingford went to Mr.
Morley at the Commercial bank nnd
exposed the full breadth of his chest
and shoulders, the full pinkness of bis
round face, the full radiance of his
confident smile.
"Morley," said he In the pleasant
tone of one requesting n match from a j
boon companion. "I want to borrow n
checking account of $3,000."
"Glad to accommodate you," said Mr.
Morley, his gray face wreathing In an
. unctuous smile.

"While that stock Is undoubtedly of

"Oh. I see." said Wallingford. smll- i

Mr. Morley. complimenting himself in- j

be inquired in a crestfallen tone.
"So," insisted Mr. Morley. nnd then
he smiled ingenuously and placed his ;

to do a great many favors for all three
of your companies. For instance, you

"No." Wallingford assented.
"Then when It gcta. ready to extend
Its business it will need funds."
"Not at all," denied Wallingford.
"The premiums if receives for the es
tablishment of new local branches will
carry on all Its necessary expenses.

"Correct," said Morley. nodding his

"Von -will ne-U" decided tho great
capitalist angrily and Btalked out. re
fusing to turn at Morlcy's urgent call.
Morley followed hltu to the entrance to
tho bank.
Wallingford, listening comfortably to
his big auto chugging nwny down nt
tho curb, sat waiting for the time to
arrive when he should go to the train to
meet the girls and looked about the
magnificent olllces of tho International
Bang Sun Engine company with much
satisfaction. A visitor coming Into this
abode of commercial wealth found him

with n rich rug and furnished with
heavy riemlstl furniture. Beyond, sejv

tall and slender; his eyes and hair a
black as his Prince Albert and as
siiluy as his silk hat. This gentleman,
refusing tp send in his name, pushed
breezily into the inner sanctum and
slapped J. Itufus on the broad back.
"You'ie pinched for loitering In a
KTaveyard." he announced.
"Ucllo. Blackle!" exclaimed Wal-
visitor.
"Ready for the grand tableau." said
Wallingford. closing his eyes to chuc
kle. "You're tiie ted Ore."
"All right." said Blackle, "touch a
mati-h to me."
"I'll do that on tho' way down to the
tralir." returned .T. Rufus. "Tho glrV-i
are cdralng."
"That's, why I'm, hero, ahead of
time," grinned Blackle.
The chauffeur was not visible when
they reached the sidewalk, nnd after
honking the horn a few times. Wal
lingford nnd Blackle climbed into the
tonncau.
"How's the game. J. Rufus?" asked
Daw. "Good. I guess, from the front
you put' up. Any time 1 see too much
padded leather In n new o31ec 1 shift
my wad to an inside pocket and but

"Tills town swallows "em without
pinning back the wings."- declared J.
Rufus with enthusiasm, "it H com
posed of the direct descendants of the
Jonah that swallowed tho whale."
"They sure did need you, then," re
sponded Blackle with conviction. "In
that particular line you're the greatest
throat specialist on earth. I've seen
you make people swallow a line of
bunk that would gag a hippopotamus."
Further intimate conversation was
stopped by the appearaneo of tho
chauffeur, who camo through a nearby
swinging door, hastily wiping his mus
tache. When the 10:30 camo thundering in
a few moments later tho two knights
of Industry hurried back to the Tull

two beautiful Wnrden girls In exqui

"This guy Daw says he ain't got any

"but 1 guess this guy Wulllngford's all

The names of Mr. Daw and Mr, Wnl
