There was a ’ light on in his living room, al-, i though the house was supposed to 1 be empty. He had II- id alone since ' his mother died the year before i I Mrs. Gander, who cleaned and oci, casionally cooked for him. must J 1 have left the light on, but he could ' i not figure out why she had been in I I the house late enough to necesst-1 I tate the use of electricity. He was I not penurious about such things, I but he was a lawyer and did have ' i a lawyer's found, to he liked to know about things. Everything careless and slipshod annoyed him. Moreover, he hadn't liked his din- ■ ner in the restaurant in Weston * and had a touch of Indigestion. The fnnt door opened into a little hall out of which stairs rose l steeply, in the manner t. the period ■ In which the little house had been i built. The hall narrowed to lead i past the steep stairs back to the kitchen. A door to the side opened I Into the living room, which was the only sizable room ir the house , and had been made by knocking ' i the old parlor and dining room into one. He could hear someone laughing in there. His brows drew 10-1 1 get her In a frown si he went In.

What s the matter?" The lawyer held out his hand "You might shake hands, if you can put the beer down long enough.” “Oh, I can put the beer down all right,” cried the young man. and emptied his glass proof. Then he took Russell's hand and shook it with mock cordiality. "Welccne home, old boy. It's good to ace you again." Russell withdrew his band quietly. 'l'm not so sure It is jood to see you again, Dan. Where have you been and why dldn t you con e home when I wrote you mother was dying?" Dan shrugged. "I've been every- . where. M'«tly west, mostly Cslitorals. Your letter chased me i around a bit. When J got it finally, . I couldn’t come.” "Nothing stops a man from cpr.- . ing to his mother when she semis i for him.” "You're wrong there, brother. I You haven't been around as much as 1 have, home of the jails the »e days are mighty hard to git cat of.” “Jal is'" The single word was a gasp Dan stretched out in his chair again and laughed. "Don't look so horr.fled. It was only vagrancy. No home, no money equals jail Some* tunes It's not so bad. Sometimes it's on the tough side." “What would your mother have said had she known?" “There-! was -ight. As a lawyer you agree I did right to—well, to keep quiet.
