A Secret
Br DONALD CHAM BERLIN
The day I was tweuty-one years old
I was walking on the street when
gentleman accosted me, saying:
"You are Joseph Stirling. I believe."
"I am," I replied, surprised, for 1
bad no knowledge of the man what
ever. "If you will call on me at my office
you will bear something which, you
may or may not consider to your ad
vantage. But I arn you to say noth
ing about this meeting until yon nave
heard what I have to say."
Handing me card with his name,
Francis Doyle, and his address on It,
be turned away and was soon lost In
the crowd.
I wss naturally much disconcerted.
I walked about aimlessly for an hour,
then went to the address given me.
"Today you come iuto an Inheritance,
of $300,000," be said to me.
"What?"
He repeated.
"Tou don't mean It!"
"But I hare something else to tell you
that you may not wish to hear."
I paled and waited.
"Yon are not the eon of either of
your parenta nor the brother of your
supposed brothers and sisters."
This was indeed a blow. I dearly
loved all of tbose be bad mentioned
I bad no heart to ask him to proceed,
but be did.
"When your supposed father and
mother were first married no children
were bora to them. Thi was a great
disappointment to your father especial
ly. Friction came between them, and
they separated. In time your suppos
ed mother, believing that the birth of
a child would bring back her husband,
took you from your mother when you
were born and wrote bim tbat a child
bad been born to her and him. He re
turned to ber. and a reconciliation was
established.
"Those whom you have considered
yonr brothers and sisters came on, the
real children of Mr. and Mrs. Stirling.
Only Mrs. Stirling knows that you are
not her son. Your own mother was of
good family who made a runaway
match with your father. He was un
able to take care of her and died, the
cause of hia death being his poverty.
Yon were born shortly after his death,
and at that time it occurred to Mrs.
Stirling to offer an adopted sou to ber
husband instead of a real one.
"Your own mother placed with a
law firm a record of your birth and
rh net-sons who bad adopted you.
That was twenty-one years ago. I was
then a clerk in the employ of the firm
and am now the firm myself. Cousins of
yours who would have Inherited cer
tain property have died, and yon are
th. nir it hits become mv duty to
notify you of your inheritance. This
bas Involved giving you the otner in
formation concerning your Dlrtn. ix
you accept the fortune the secret must
come out for your supposed father
must necessarily know whence came
your fortune What change this may
make In the present relations between
husband and wife it is Impossible to
tell.
Ha hud riven me the situation in a
nutshell. I was like a weather vane In
changing wlud-two air currents dis
puting for the mastery. On tne one
side there waa the possession of $300,-
000. on the other the revelation of a
secret that would give my dear mother
nsln I could not at once consider ber
as not my mother make trouble be
tween her and father and make known
to my brothers and sisters that I was
of a different family.
Rut all this was not In complete pos
session of my mind. The shock I bad
received on learning that I did not
really belong to those I loved was up
permost I dreaded the first meeting
with tbem all after the Information I
hud received. I should certainly give
away the fact that there was some
thing on ray mind, and doubtless moth
er would suspect what it was. What
life she must have led. dreading al
ways that ber secret would come out!
Well." said the attorney, "I pre
sume you will take time to recover
from the information I have given yon
nd devise some means of softening
the blow to Mr. Stirling?"
I will think over what is best to be
done In the premises." I replied, "and
let you know "

their chief. Ills majesty added: "1

The colonel gave the name of Kurlch

to turn it out as well as yours."
There Is next given a seriocomic de

among the Kurlchkess household, con

general officer descended.

Don't be frightened. You'll know

Eventually the tailor turned up snfe
andrecounted his adventures. The
drive with the general had lasted two
hours and a half. During the wbolu
journey the general did not address a
single word to him. When they reach
ed their destination. Yalta, all he said
was. "Khulm Ktlrichkess, get ottt and
follow me."
He was assured that he need not be
alarmed; he would be provided with
lodging uihI with food, and the uext
day he would be told why he had been
brought to Yalta nnd what be had to
do. He was told he need not try to
eseue, as be would be watched.
His fears were dissipated when a
colo:iel entered the room, aud the "gen
eral of genemla" addressed him to the
following effect:
"Great good fortune hns fallen upon
you. His majesty the emperor wurlies
you to make for blm a uniform of the
Crltneau dragoons. - But it must be as
good as that of the colonel of the regi
ment. 1 hoe yen won't muke a mess

In the meantime Kurlchkess was root

The czar on realizing his presence
faced blm and said: "Ob, you are here

The Price of a
Week's Board
By RUTH GUAM AM
Tom Hums, a farmer's boy, who
didn't like farm work, wont from Illi
nois out Into the wild west. There be
wandered about, uiakliitf a living as
beet be could, but there waa little for
blm to do, except kill the atiltuala of
the wilderness either for their meat
or their sklua. I Hiring his wanderings
Tom married the daughter of a settler
who bad come from Ohio. She wished
to get back to that state as much as
ber husband wanted to return to Illi
nois. But Instead of drifting eastward
they drifted farther westward, for as
civilisation encroached upon them the
wild animals, by which Tom made a
living. Inn-sine scarce, and they were
obliged to find new bunting grounds.
So at Inst they found themselves In
a gulch where game waa plenty and
neighbors were few. It was a deo
lute life. esHH.'lnlly for the woman.
Tom offered to take bis wife east but
she knew he had never fitted himself
for the work to be done there, and she
preferred to rotualn where they were
rathet than run the risk of starving In
ber former home.
One day a man came trudging up the
gulch and, stopping at the Hums cab
in, aaked Mrs. Burns If be could be
accommodated for a short time. She
told blm that ber husbaud would be
home soon and then she could give
an answer. The stranger said be
would pay well for bis board. Wben
Tom returned It waa sgreed between
him and his wife that they would take
the stranger In. though there wss only
one room In the cablu. and they were
all obliged to sleep In the same room,
divided Iuto two parts by a curtain.
The man went out every morning
prospecting for aoiurthlng-he dldu't
say wbat-and every night returned to
the cablu. lie remained with the
Hums couple a week, tlieu said to
them :
"I'm going away from here, and I
can't poy you any board. I have been
told that an itlclv Is to be found In
this region that Is very valuable. Had
I found It I could have paid you thou
sands of dollars for my keep. As It Is
I can't pay you anything."
"Thut's all right, stranger." said
John. "We wouldn't have felt war
ranted In charging you over ft any
way, so It doesn't matter much."
"It matters more to me than to you
It may be that I've missed the deposit
I've been looking for, and some duy
yuu may stumble oil It. Hut you won't
recognize It If you do. I'm going to
leave you some chemicals, and If you
ever come across the article I refer to
and mix It with the chemicals nnd bum
the compound It will give a green
fla me."
ire gave them some Idea of what the
substance looked like lu Its crude form
and. Hiurlng the chemicals from his
stock Into bottles, left them with hlin.
with bis address, telling them If they
ever found th article to write blm
and bo would make tbem rich.
A mouth passed ufter the stranger's
departure and the Burnses would bsve
almost forgotten his coming had It not
been for the bottles he had left them
that stood In the cupboard. Oue day
John. Instead of bunting iu the gulcb
and the region thereabout, went down
to Its mouth and, rounding a mountain
spur, entered a valley. Ho eucounter
ed a trapper, who told blm that noth
ing could live there, nut even animals,
and there was no use for hlin to try to
get any game there. Ho desolate was
the place that It was called Pcath
valley. John bad heard of It and con
cluded to have a look at It before go
ing home. So he wandered about In II
He hadn't gone far before he saw
scattered about a substance that an
swered the description his boarder had
given him. He gnthered some of It
and took It borne with hlin.
After supper, while his wife- was
washlug the dishes, he took a piece
of the substance be bud brought from
I icnlli valley and. putting It In a tin
pnu. poured the chemicals over It nnd
set tire to It. As be did so bis wife
paused In wiping a dish and watched
bim. As the flame burst forth the two
looked at each other with surprise and
pleasure.
It bunted green.
The couple talked that night over
various plans to secure what value
there might lie In tbelr find to them
selves. Tbey thought of presenting a
claim for the ground where they bad
found the substance, but realized that
they were too poor and too iguorant
of the subject to hnndle'lt themselves,
so they wrote to their lodger that they
thought they bad found what he bad
been looking for. He came to see them,
and John showed blm a specimen of
his find aud also that It burned green.
The stranger uttered an exclamation
of delight
'That Is borax," be said, "used for
washing purposes In every household
In America."
He told John that If he would tell
him where It lay be would form a
company to take the ground, work It
and would give Johu half of all be
made out of It himself. John accept
ed his proposition, and an agreement
was written out and signed by both sc
cording lo the terms.
It turned out the stranger had a large
borax company behind him with up
limited cnpltal. A company was form
