McPeake, Federal Trust Bldg. This information was received by Elmer Clarke half an hour before his departure for the home of his hearts desire, whom he planned to escort that evening to the municipal band concert in the plaza. To this young lady Elmer disclosed the contents of the telegram. What disposition are you going to make of the body, Elmer? she inquired.

Oh, please dont do that, Elmer! Oh, of course not, Nellie. He was my mothers brother, even if he was a heartless old skinflint. I suppose he died penniless for all his miserly thrift, or his lawyer would not have wired me as he did. Ill send McPeake a night letter and instruct him to give the old man a plain, decent Christian burial, the expense of which shall not exceed one hundred and fifty dollars, and to draw on me at sight for the same. For mothers sake I cant have the old man buried in Potters field. Nellie patted Elmer Clarkes hand. Im glad youre going to do the right thing by him, even if he didnt deserve it. They went to the band concert and when they parted at Nellies front gate Elmer held her hand longer than seemed necessary. Nellie, my dear, you're a great comfort to me, he said very seriously, apropos of nothing. I like to think that some day when my ship comes He checked himself, and after in a pause added : But then it will never come in until I sail in it, so whats the use dreaming until I know my dreams can come true? Elmer, the girl replied, within a week your ship is going to come in. I feel it In my bones somewhat after the fashion of old men who have rheumatic twinges just before the first rains. Wouldnt it be wonderful, El- mer, if your Uncle Hiram died with just scads of money and left it all to you? You have never met him, have you, Elmer? No, and I have never desired to. Elmer, if the unexpected should happen and you should receive a substantial sum from your uncles estate, what would you do? He looked down at her very soberly and seemed about to answer her question without the hesitation which almost instantly he developed. He bit his Up and sighed., Id get into business for myself, of course, he replied. The girl nodded soberly and he had a vague suspicion that his answer had been a disappointment, for she withdrew her hand and said good night , (TO BE CONTINUED.) over-acidit- M Ctrsrrtt tSFlotd tri !!
