Two days later Valadon stood on the wharf at Oakland Miss Brockman stood by ths sleeper In which she anil her mother were to make the trip east. ''l may see you sooner than you ex pact." he said with a smile Having money iwi-miapi.-d to you’ she asked. "No." he answered ceortly "I b tv<an idea that pe haps 1 car come east In accordance with your approved iwns io try it, any-

"If I do, what—" Mabel shook her head over the porter's shoulder as the train pulled out Valadon took the boat back to the city, but instead of returning to the hotel he went to the Barbary Coast. In one of the dives rat a partv of men, rough, uncouth and with a most evident smell of the stable about them. Billy went up to their leader. "I'tn ready now.’’ he said "Stow the glad rags," commanded the other, “and come back here in half an hour. We don't want silk hats around ” Before the end of the half hour the silk hat and frock coat had been metamorphosed Into a cloth cap and a peajacket, and Billy was five dollars richer. The leader marshaled the gang and an hour later Billy was back in Oakland. but this time In the freightyards. On the track before him was a train of 13 yellow cars at the head of which panted a huge engine. Billy climbed Into the third car. There was much hoarse shouting, a blast from the whistle and a jolt as the train pulled out, and the first section of the horse special was under way. Billy's fellow passengers in the car were another hostler and 12 thoroughbreds being hurried east to the big winter sale. Five days later a tired and dirty, but exceedingly cheerful, young man drove up to the door of the Valadon residence on Fifth avenue just as the head of that house was sitting down to his breakfast. It required an argument with a new footman to convince him that the caller was not required to go to the side entrance, but at his voice the elder Valadon came running into the hall. “Bless my soul,” he puffed after Billy had told his tale In brief. "Didn't you get my check?” Billy thrust a paper into his hand. "It came the day I left.” he said, "but it. sort of spoiled the idea and I pretended that I did not get it. Now I want a bath and breakfast and then I want to see If I cannot go down to the station in time to meet the Brockmans.” The Chicago express war. three hours late when it puffed into the huge arched shed, and Miss Brockman was In no amiable frame of mind as she descended to the platform. There had been delay and six days on the train even in a stateroom is not pleasant. For a moment she stared as a wellgroomed young man possessed himself of her handbag and turned to help her mother down the steps, and it was not until they had headed for the ferry that she found her voice. "How did you get here so quickly?” she demanded. "I came the northern way." he explained, "and I had a special." Miss Brockman turned away to hide her disappointment. "I might have known you would do something like that," she aaio coldly. "I suppose that you wired for money.” "There was a check at the hotel when I got to San Francisco." he explained wickedly. "I had it in my pocket when I said good-by’ to you in Oakland. I thought you would like a surprise." “ft was not a surprise; it was *he expected." she corrected. I had hoped my sermon had sunk In " He made no explanations until they were In the carriage, which had waited at Twenty third street. Then Billy leaned forward "I should have explained.” he begad. "that the spectal- was for the Ora ranch hors?s for the sale at the gaitden. I was -a hos Her and, I brought the check back with me.” She leaned forward and kissed him. to the surprise of her mother. ‘'Billy!" she cried impulsively, "you may take that. eh»ek and buy me a aclitsire with it.”

WHAT THOMAS DID. Thomas H. Perkins began life ns a boy before the mast. By thrift and industry he built up a business that made him a fortune of $1,500,000. The idea that a man can jump into a fortune is a strange, popular delusion. It can't be done. The men who are the leaders in finance have grown into it—have worked hard and have invariably spent less than they made. Say you are earning a certain sum of money each week.
