"Yes, and I wish he had sent for ma ooner." "Gracious! Is he seriously ill?" "Quite the reverse. I'm afraid he'll be all right again before I get in a half dozen visits." . It was rather unreasonable of Jessica Jes-sica to find fault with her father and accuse him of a lack of cordiality toward to-ward her callers. Most of her girl friends consider the professor a model parent just by reason of the shy and retiring disposition which he showed n the frpmipnt occasions of visits of Jessica's roune man. One of the elrls had a father whose sense of hospital- Ity was go abnormally developed that he persisted in sitting down la the parlor and entertaining every outh who came to the house. He was a pro- fessor o entomology. ' ' Jessica said: "Mr. Runsford felt ouite hurt by the way you acted, papa, He thinks that you don't lik him, and th t he isn't welcome whn he comes." "I'm very sorry," said the professor, penitently. "I'm sure I didn't mean to snub him. I like the young man very well, I'm sure, but I was afraid that I might be in the way." ' "The idea!" said Jessica. "As if you couldn't talk well on any subject. But really, papa, when when any of my callers are here you must try to be more cordial to them and Mr. Runsford has a great admiration for you, papa. . "Well, I'll do my best, of course," said the professor. "As I say, 1 didn't mean to hurt his feelings." It was not long before the professor had an opportunity to show that he meant well at least. It was rather late in the evening and he was sitting out on the front veranda awaititg his daughter's return from some little entertainment en-tertainment at a neighbor's house. He was suddenly aroused from a biologic reverie by the sound of voices and saw Jessica and some unknown young man standing at the garden gate. 'I'm sorry that I can't ask you In,1 she said, "but I'm afraid papa has gone to bed. He goes very early, you know, and I wouldn't like to disturb him." MM "I notice that you and Bayliss haven't seemed very friendly the last week or two," observed the Park Ridge man, holding up his newspaper and changing his feet on the seat before be-fore him. "You'll probably notice it for quite a while to come," said the red-faced man in the ulster.1 "Hens?" "Nope." "Kids?"

Bayliss is one of the main guys, you know, and he came around to me one morning and wanted me to hunt up a lot of plunder and, of course, I said I'd do it. My wife was away at the time and it was the girl's Thursday out, so as I didn't want to leave the house open I told Bayliss I'd dump what I could rake up outside on the "There are times," said a lawyer, "when, despite all the legal rules that surround it, one touch of nature makes the whole world kin and then look out for a surprising verdict. I was on a jury myself once. A haggard, hag-gard, starved-looking woman was on trial for shoplifting. When she was brought Into court her two little children ran to her in tears.

"I believe I will for a few ill as," said the youth. il He came and was welcomed bl the professor with absolute effusion. Th professor could, as his daughter had said, talk on any subject interestingly, and he exerted himself conversatlon- ally with great success. Mr. Deakin apparently enjoyed himself immensely, but Jessica seemed rather absent- minded and nervous. The only time she joined in the talk was when a shadowy figure of a man passed the gate, hesitating a moment as it did so. Then Jessica spoke very loudly. It was perhaps an hour or twcH) fore Mr. Deakin left. As soon as he was well away Jessica turned to her father. She seemed annoyed aoout something.

After wearing the market and kindred subjects threadbare they sat back silently and looked at one another. an-other. Each knew the habits of the other so well that it required no word on any one's part to explain that one and all yearned for a fourth man to make up- a game of "draw." The broker made a move. He punched the button by his side, and when a porter appeared he took from his case a business card, wrote a few words in pencil on the back of it and handed it to the darky. . "Deliver that to the gentleman in S A, will you, Sammy? And wait to see if there is an answer," he said. So It happened that a few minutes later, with the luxurious train bowling smoothly over the road-bed, and only fifty out of the nine hundred odd miles between New York and Chicago covered, cov-ered, a quiet game of poker was in progress. The newcomer differed slightly from the other three in that his clothes were somewhat noticeable, any his jewelry shiny, as if all purchased pur-chased in a lump, and recently. Yet he was a corker at the game of draw. None of the four observed that each time -the conductor, passed through the car he would gaze with a serious air at this fourth man, whose profile greeted him as he sat facing the engine.. en-gine.. The steely blue eyes of the conductor con-ductor would rest for several seconds on the face of the stranger, as if busy with reminiscence, and then he would continue his passage, seemingly puzzled. puz-zled. A curious thing about poker is the almost uncanny facilities It affords for establishing an intimacy. To an expert, ex-pert, the stranger who sits opposite im playing his hand, taking up the ctrds, arranging them, betting, pulling the pot, is at the-same time laying re cardinal features of his mental ake-up, so that ten minutes' play does more to create an environment of friendship than hours of conversation conversa-tion indulged in on a first meeting. Therefore it seemed perfectly natural when the broker, after scanning the etranger, allowed his glance to rest on tt- latter's head. He looked at the parting in a mass of fine black hair. At first glance there was nothing unusual un-usual about it, but a few moments' study showed that it was wider than seemed natural, and finally the observer ob-server discerned that the thin straight line was as white as chalk, as smooth as satin, and in reality was as straight as a rule, whereon no nair grew. Observing Ob-serving his steady glance, the stranger leaned baGk in his chair and remarked: re-marked: "I see, sir, that you are more observant ob-servant than the majority of mankind." man-kind." The broker hastened to murmur an apology, but the other cut him short with a good-natured laugh and a deprecatory de-precatory wave o his hand while he said: , "That line of parting is really a scar, as pernaps you have perceived. It is rarely that I relate the incident that resulted in my receiving it, yet If you care to listen I will tell the story." The other three drew their chairs up In an attitude of expectant inter- WU Mrl'l. V.

"Well, one evening Jake Bellair rode to town on his broncho. . He was known as 'Bad Jake. The news spread, and every one kept his eyes skinned for first sight of him. Suddenly Sud-denly there was a whoop outside the Vron where the boys were gathered. drinking and playing, and Jake appeared ap-peared in the aoorway. . In a trice I found myself standing alone beside the bar. The bartender had disappeared, disap-peared, and every ..wboy had sunk softly into a seat Jake's eyes lighted on me, and next instant he stood in front of me, and I looked down the throat of a Colt 45. " 'Dance, you blankety-blank son of Satan!' yelled the bad man. 'You bloomin' Eastern pickpocket, or train-robber, train-robber, or whatever you are, dance, or I'll fill you full of holes. "I never before had looked into the menacing barrel of a revolver, and my gaze remained glued to the little rond blackened circle, from which death might spurt at any moment Although I never for an instant took my eyes 5 I could neither choke him nor secure possession of the weapon. from the hole, I could feel the glance of every one in the room fixed on us. I did not want to dance. If I did, I would be ridiculed, maybe forced to leave town, or have fifty fights on my hands in as many days. If I did not "The next Instant I bounded like a panther at the bad man. My left hand closed about the pistol, my right hand seized his throat, with no gentle grasp. The action was so quick he hadn't time to draw the trigger. I could feel the baffled rage sizzle within him as I wrenched the pistol barrel toward the roof, being una"ble, though I exerted ex-erted all my strength, to tear the weapon entirely from his grasp. I was an athlete and a bit of a boxer at college, col-lege, and I meditated suddenly releasing releas-ing his throat and smashing him on the jaw. But he read my thoughts, and his left hand closed on my right wrist with a grasp of iron. So, locked in that grip, we struggled, amid a hubbub hub-bub now, for every one in the room was on his feet, exclaiming at the audacity of my action. ' "I felt I was weakening. Little by little the muzzle of the revolver described de-scribed a -downward arc, and we were both covered with perspiration and panting like prize fighters. Strain, as I would, I could neither choke him nor secure possession of the weapon And then, as a dizzy feeling began to creep over me, the shot came. At the same instant I felt with the instinct that serves a man in place of wits at such a time that he had not hit me, although al-though I could feel the biting powder sink into my scalp and face. As I started , back I wrenched the pistol from his hand, and the next moment had him covered before his left hand could drop to his hip, whenc toother gun was strapped. "'Hands up!' I cried. Jake threw them up. I stepped to him, unloosened un-loosened his belt, which dropped to the floor, and then, regaining my former form-er position, I exclaimed : . " 'I never saw you before, and I never want to again. I will give you till midnight to shake this town. If I ever set eyes on you again one of us dies. Go! .k "He backed to the door, and we could hear his horse's hoofs strike the clay in a gallop. "Then I raised my hand to my head and brought it back covered with blood. The bullet, intended for my brain, had run along my skull, tearing a clean, straight furrow : that .healed in a weak, but left this scar, which will be there, as long as I live." The other three gentlemen were expressing their interest in the narrative, narra-tive, when once more the conductor appeared. The narrator looked him full In the face: r "Damned if it isn't O'Dell," said the official,; heartily.
