The fact seemed to afford him grati

khat ha and -Valentine Robinson were

fcranduncle afforded Jilm a very auffl-

Of the allotted period only about 18

Ni "I'm talclna a vacation." Morlev ex
plained, "and I wanted to speak to you.

a fine looking thing! Where did you
pick it up?"
"Oh, on the east side, with a small
dealer, and I only paid $3 for it. I'm
glad tp hear that my Judgment ia so
good."
"I will give you 10 for it if you like,"
said Morley, carelessly.
"I should be delighted, dear boy, but
you're too late. Bchaefer, my little tai
lor. Was here and bothered me for
money Just now so I persuaded him to
take it in part payment. Good-natured
oiu fellow and he took it away with
him." .
"Good heavens! Do you mean to say
that you have been foolish enough to
art with that picture for a few dol
irs?" "For $10, the sum you offered be,"
aid Valentine, with a rather queer look
at his cousin.
Morley tried to explain.
"Oh, I thought you let go for less.
Schaefer, your tailor, bought It of yo-i,
I believe you said. I don't suppose you
would have got more from any one.
Well, I must get along and I won t keep
you from your work."
Left alone, Valentine look thoughtful.
He knew that it was not in Maurice to
offer 110 for anything that was not
worth a great deal more and the pic
ture must be worth 'a verv great deal
more before it's loss would have ex
cited him so strongly. His hasty de
parture, too, pointed to the same thing.
"1 believe I made a find and let it
slip through my fingers. Even nowa
days one does hear of such finds. Any
how it is pretty sure that Maurice hus

chaefer that he can find in the direc

him It Is valuable to me. I must re

He hurried out of his office, borrowed
some money from a friend in the same
building, and five minutes later he was
speeding toward the "tailor's:: He ex
plained his errand in the most diplo
matic manner and the little German
said that he was very sorry that he
could not oblige him. It seemed that
when he had returned with the picture, '
Instead Of the cash his wife had called
him a big fool, so he had immediately
disposed of it at a second-hand furni

money thereby.
Valentine thanked him and hurried
out. i.j waa quite aura that the paint

time In a fever, f excitement. He

sweet or bitter, and was about to leave
the store when he ran Into the arms
of his cousin. H had been - expecting
the meetlnr, Maurice had not, and he
blushed visibly.
"You're too late," Valentine said
grimly, without a word of explanation,
"It's gone, sold again, and so are we."
"What are you talking about?'' asked
Morley, attempting to look innocent.
"Now,, look here, Maurice," said the
lawyer, pulling hlrh into the store, "there
Is no U.o to try to humbug me any
longer, that picture is a big thing.
Yoj might as well tell me how big a
thing it la? Does it mean hundreae
or thousands?"
"It is a Rembrandt or my name is
not Maurice Mori e v."
"Th6n I suppose that whichever of us
gets it will get the old man's money,
too."
. "Yes." Maurice said gloomily.
"Only it happens that neither of us
has the advantage of the other so far.
Now you have not behaved quite gen
erously in keeping me In the dark and
offering mie a miserable ten dollars.
But it is no use going back on that,
and It is no use to cut each other's
throats, as far aa I can see.- Two
men bidding for the thing would only
arouse Miss Ponovan's suspicion as to
Its value if she doesn't know it now.
What do you say to going shares in
the transaction. We could- run down
to Saratoga at onoe arid interview the
lady." - . -.
"I am Willing if you are," Maurice
said slowly, "but I don't think It ls a
f:ood idea to go to Saratoga, aa you aay
t ia Important not to show too much
anxiety. A letter would answer our
purpose- better." ' -
"Of courae you are right. ' I wouldn't
think of - that r - you ought to nave

Morley laughed and they went to hla
rooms to write tha 4 important docu
ment. . They mailed it together and
Sarted with the distinct understanding
nat neither was to move In tha matter
without tha other. '-.' '
Now it happened that - Valentine had '
prom I sod to meet a friend from the
country -at Grand Central Station, and '
he was trolling' about tha depot Boon
after he .had left hia cousin when he.
got a flying (.limps, of a familiar Xaoa
through the window of a starting train.
"Maurice, by all thit'a queer" Then
a startling idea flashed across his mind.
The train Was going to Saratoga and
Maurice's conduct could only mean
one thing. He had agreed to the part
nership merely as a bribe in order to
get the picture ulone, and Valentine's
eyes flashed blue fire as he thought of
the treachery of the man he had trust
ed. However, It was tK late to regret
his mistake. All he could do was to
fet rid of his friend from the coun;
ry and wait for the next train for
Saratoga.
He waa not extravagant in most
things, but he would like comfortable
traveling and therefore he settled him
self comfortably in the parlor oar.- He
had scarcely seated himself when a lady
came in, followed by. a porter with a
dress suit case. She tipped the porter
and cnlrnly ant down in the opposite
chair, and began to read a magazine.
A glance told him that ahe waa young,
beautiful and dressed in exquisite taste.
There waa an elderly lady close by,
but she wan quite an unimportant de
tail in the young man's eyes.
Probably it was because he was so
occupied in watching his pretty neigh
bor that he nhould have been able to
prevent a serious accident. The bag
gage rack was out of repair. The dress
suit case heavy, a, sharp crack and the
structure was In the act of falling down
upon hor head when he sprang to his
feet in time to ward it off at the cost
of a badly bruised arm.
"You saved my life." She cried with
delightful positlveneas. "Oh, yes, you
did' Didn't he, Aunt Tillle? I should
have been killed, I know I should! How
can I thank you" Her voice seemed
to him the swestest he ever heard and
he blushed with pleasure In spite of
the pain In his arm. She made a friend
of htm at once, and In talking to her he
forgot all about his errand until a
change word recalled it Then to
amuse her he told her the story of the
Rembrandt and the fortupe depending
on the Issue.
"t think your cousin hsa hehaved
shamefully," was her verdict. "He
doesn't deserve to sueceed.v
"Oh. It ls only in novels and on the
stage that virtue triumphs."
- ''And I differ with you." she said
calmly, "your cousin will not get the
Rembrandt."
'TIow can you . tell me," he said
ahiusd at her poaltiveness.
"Merelv because I happen to have it."
The full significance of the situation
fluttered his brain.
He had spoiled Maurice's chane of
fortune, but by telling the owner of his
picture's value he had spoiled his own
as well. ...
"I am." ' ahe replied with a smile.
biit vou needn't be sorry you told me.
Do you think I would be so shabby aa
to take advantage f your confidence
after what I we you. You ahalictake
