You are not murrlcd, of courae?" 'Well uuv-er1 am a lone man lu the world. Yea, I am a lone man, Sam mil, and aa the young woman referred to la a lone woman It la only natural that we ahould be drawn toward each other. By the way, hare you caught on to old Graham yotr "What la It. sir?" "I saw the old ruHcal making eyes at ttata very young woman tho other day, He's acventy If he's n day, and If he hasn't boon a rascal all Ida lire then I can't rend human nature.

Fosdlck and rrporf If lie trfes any "of hl wicked schemes," It was otily throe or four duyi latet when old Mr. Kosdlck's wife cmne dows to the akyflcrapcr. I knew It waa hla wife, but he hustled her out as soon aa he C Hilil, and when nImi hud gone he nii Id to me; "That was my grandmother, Hun mils. Tho dear old lady mum down to ask Uii to Invest Nome money for her." Three days later a woman came to tho building asking for old Mr, Gra ham, lie happened to bo out, and after wult lug awhile she suld to mo: "You tell my husband when he comes hi Mint I hnvo been here and that if he tlmwu't send mo $10 today Ml have hint In court for iionsupport." I didn't tell him, but he learned some way that she hud been there, and ho explained to me; "Huiuuil, that wua my housekeeper, I wits In arreara to her for salary, but Imd forgotten It. If she spoke of mo is her husband she did It unconscious ly. Women often speak that way, you know." Then I saw that both of these fa therly mid benign old men had deceiv ed me. Instead of taking me Into their confidence Uiy had deceived mo and made a guy of me. Two boinjueta from old Mr. Fosdlck 1 chucked into the ash can uud followed them with one froi:i old linihum. The box of candy from the hitler I divided with one of the boys. I had been betrayed, and I wanb'd revenge, I sswed wood ami said nothing for n week. Then 1 felt It my duty toward humanity to tell old Mr. i'osdtck that old Mr. (irahnm had culled Jm a wolf in sImh-p's cloth ing. "What: What's that!" he exclaimed lu reply. "Why, the miserable old fraud! Hut I'll pull his nose for hiiiil Think of a mail of his ago, Sam in Is, and a married man at that, making eyes at a young and helpless woman! falls me a wolf, does be? Knows that I am on hla trail and wants to bluff me off! Hy thunder" That aame afternoon old Mr.Graham wai told that old Mr. Fosdlck bad re ferred to him aa an attenuated and doddering old scoundrel, and he bronchi his Ost down on his desk and shouted : "Hy the seven bulls, but he'll go down on his knees to mo for tbut! Wlint! A reprobate duro to talk about me like that! Just wait till I come across hliu!" The meeting took place next fore noon In one of the corridors.
