Three days later Hawkins walked into

of a man going to have all his teeth

cheerily enough, bnt to Hawkins’ car
there was an under note o f triumph. Iu
truth, Hawkins hail in the last two days
suffered a moral shock that hail left him
a prey to emotional neuralgia. What he
misread as elation was really but a sort
of w histling to keep the courage up.
Mr. Hildreth knew w ell whose bnsi
ness alone could bring Hawkins to hi,s
office and hail got some hint o f thesyu-
ilicate’sovertun*. Ho it was plain to bis
mind that Major Overton's antagonists
meant to force the fighting, with what
result he had no manner o f ilonbt. W ell
as he loved a legal battle, Mr. Hildreth
j had never Iss-n able to quite sink the
man in the lawyer. Next to Major Over-
toil himself he would feel the sting of
the claim ’s oversetting, which, as he
had all along felt, ouly a mirncle could
prevent.
After a glam “ good day” Hawkius
ilmpis-d heavily into a choir, put his
elbow on the table ami said, affectedly:
“ 1 toll yon, you don’ t know what may

“ W hat’s the matter? Syndicate busted
