His Judgment warned him that he was doomed to defeat, but with the frenzied desperation of a gambler he staked everything honor, friendship, loyalty, his business career all on t lie turn of a card, aud dared to meet John Burt with treachery in his heart and a lie on his lips. Blake knew that John Burt was In his private office, hut for the first time lu his life he hesitated to enter it. Prosperity had erected no wall of formality between ' these two. From the day they fought their boyish buttle, oir the edge of the fishing pool, they had called each other "John and "Jim." In tacitly accepting John Burt's leadership, Blake recognized in his companion those traits which attract allegiance, and which hold It by unseen but powerful bands. By a display of tact which amounted to genius, John Burt had aided Janies ttiake without patronizing hint, and had forgiven his repeated mistakes without offending hint. Blake strolled slowly through the connecting offices and entered the large room reserved for customers. Those who knew the famous operator bowed respectfully.

Noltody gives us fellows credit for having a large hump of sensitiveness, but the said a west side undertaker, fact Is, wo go to a good deal of trouble to safeguard the feelings of the general public. For one thing, we try never to keep our hearses In the street after datk. Of course. In the case of afternoon funerals and long distances we cannot avoid getting home late, hut, even so, we mnke it a point to get under cover as soon as possible after nightfall. And we do that absolutely out of consideration for the public. By nine people out of ten the sight of a hearse on the street at night Is taken us a sure sign of Impending death and disaster. Even In the daytime a hearse is a affair, but to run up against one at right Is pretty sure to give the most Jovial fellow alive a depressing turn. I know how It Is myself. Accustomed as I am to handling hearses, I don't like to bump Into one at a dark corner.
