BEGIN HEKE TOD At. Clare Jewett, in lore with the Reverend Daniel Gilchrist, marries Jerry Goodkind for his money. Daniel is dismissed from the fashionable Church of i the Nativity in New York because of his radical sermons "Overcoat Hail." a refuge for the unemployed, is established by Gilchrist. Clare comes in and says she has left Jerry and Daniel sends her back to him. Joe Hennlf and his gang break in and threaten Gilchrist. Mary Margaret, a little <Tippie. repeats the Lord's Prayer. She rises from her knees and walks to Gilchrist, cured of her lameness. The gang believe* it a sign from above. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY tit —WISH I could,’’ Daniel eari I nestly rejoined. 1 * I Mary Margaret turned to go. Goodkind halted her. “You seem to walk all right,” he said. “Oh, yes,” she answered cheerfully. “Had a doctor look her over?” he isJted of Gilchrist. “Three of them." he replied. “Any opinion?” “Three opinions,” he answered, smiling. "They say he didn't do it," spoke up Mary Margaret. "You seen him." Daniel held a warning finger toward “They ali say she suffered from hysterical paraplegia," he said. “Hys'erlcal paralysis.

The two men paused, each waiting for the other to speak. It vas Goodkind who broke the silence. “How are things with you?” Goodland asked at length. ‘Finei" came the answer, with more ;han a mere emphasis of enthusiasm. “Happy?” asked Goodkind, as though feeling his way.

fessed. “My boy’s very ill. Clare's wonderful to him. I can’t explain It. She's like a different woman. And she seems happy. But Jerry had to give up work, and there’s more trouble in Black River—that’s what brought me.” “You don’t want my advice,” said Daniel quietly. “I want you,” said Goodkind—“as general manager. These strikes are such utter d —d waste. We had a working compromise on your agreement, and everything w r as all right, but we began figuring we could make more money—and the men walked out and flooded mines. I’d like you to take charge, Daniel.” Gilchrist did not hesitate. “I can't,” he said simply. “You’re not go.ng to turn down SIOO,OOO a year?” “What can I buy with it that I haven’t got?” Gilchrist smiled faintly- “ What can you buy with SIOO,OOO —” Goodkind blustered, bewildered. “What have you bought?" Gilchrist challenged. t CHAPTER XXIII Success and Peace Goodkind, master of millions, was taken aback by the bland query. Outside there waited for him a motor car with more upholstery than this whole room contained. He had just driven from one of New York's residential show places. He owned mines that went deep into the ground and skyscrapers that towered into the air. W.th one flourish he could wr.te a check in seven figures And this man had asked h.m what wealth had bought for him! “I’ve one of the finest houses in New York,” he said at last. “Is it any more comfortable than this?” Daniel challenged. “I’ve got half a dozen cars,” went on Goodkind. "I’ve two legs, and I walk, and keep well,” returned Daniel. “I’ve twenty servants —” “Don’t tell me you enjoy that!” “And. what’s most important of all.” said Goodkind emphatically. “I’m a success.” Daniel fixed penetrating eyes upon him. “Are you?” he asked earnestly. Goodkind’s answer was a scornful mutter. "Are you?” Daniel queried again. "What is success? Money! Yes, that is what our civilization tells us. Money! But where has that brought us? Only to the elevation of the unfit —the merely shrewd and predatory. All around us we see men of wealth who have nothing else—neither health, nor happiness, nor love, nor respect. Men who can get no joy out of books, or pictures, or music, or even themselves. Tired, worried men, who are afraid to quit because tney have no resource except to make money—money with which to buy vulgar excitement for their own debased souls." He paused for a moment. "Why. Mr. Goodkind. I have an income that you wouldn't suggest to your bookkeeper. But. I have peace, and health, and friends, and time to read, and think, and dream, and help. Which of us is the rich man?” “But if everybody lived your way,” Goodkind protested feebly, “what would become of the world’s work?” “Living that way is my contribution to the world's work,” said Daniel. “Another man's might be selling thoes. or writing plays, or digging ditches. Doing his job doesn’t prevent any man from doing his bit. ‘From every man according to his ability, to every man according to his needs.’ And 'every man who gives his best must find his happiness.” “I’m afraid there wouldn’t be much progress—living your way,” said the other unconvinced. Daniel turned on him. “That’s the second time you’ve spoken of my way. It Isn’t my way. It’s the sum total of all that has been learned and taught. You and Jerry and the others have called me eccentric. and a fool, because I’m trying to walk a path trod hard by countless feet.” f He rose and drew closer. “Was Christ eccentric.' Was Confucius a fool? And how about Buddha and Mohammed? What of St Bernard, and St. Teresa, and St. Francis of Assisi—of Plato, and Zeno, and Lincoln, and Emerson, and Florence Nightingale, and Father Damien, and Octavia Hill, and all the saints and scientists, and poets and philosophers, who have lived and died in complete forgetfulness of self? Were they fools, or were they wise men and women who had found the way to peace and happiness? Were they failures, or were they the great successes of all Time and Eternity?” “God knows!” said Goodkind, perplexed. The door opened. Slowly a bent figure made its way into the room One might have fcund it hard to recognize Jerry in the man. Death's slow approach was writton In his deeply-lined face. Ho dragged his legs with difficulty. But his eyes still bore a certain cruel alertness. “You've been the devil of a time.” he said petulantly, turning to his father. "What’s been keeping you?” "Mr. Gilchrist,” explained the older Goodkind. “Hello, Gilchrist,” Jerry said crisply to the figure that came toward him. “How are you, Jerry?” responded Gilchrist cheerily. v “Not so damned well,” said the other, cringing a bit. “But I’ll be all right In the spring. Clare’s looking after me. Clare’s good sport. What I need now's a run down to Palm | Beach.” He looked around the room patronizingly. “So you’re reduced to this, are you?” “Yes.” said Daniel, smiling. “Going to take my job?” “No,” said Gilchrist. "Why not?” “Your father . understands,” said Gilchrist. "Yes—so do I,” Jerry sneered. “Didn't I always say you were a nut. That’s it, a nut.” And his derisive laughter turned into a paroxysm of coughing that almost toppled him. “Come. Jerry,” said his father, starting for the door. It opened before he reached it and Mary Mar garet came in. Jerry gcrutinized her closely with a leer.

"Who’s the girl?” ho asked of Gilchrist. "Your father’s waiting,” said Daniel, evading the question. "A' right,” said Jerry, good-na-turedly enough. He hobbled toward the door, but not without turning for a final fling. "Some failure you’ve made out of life,” he said contemptuously. He lifted an unsteady hand, described a circle or two about his head. “Wheels—by God Wheels!” Goodkind looked sadly at Gilchrist. ”1 wonder whether you're the failure, after all,” Jie said softly, as he took Daniel’s hand. Then he followed his son through the door. Gilchrist took his pipe from his pocket, filled it leisurely, and the flash of a match revealed his clearcut face in the darkening shadows. From far away in a church spire pointing heavenward there cdme the sound of chimes. Daniel walked to the window and threw It open. He lodked up at the -sky. Mary Margaret watched him wonderlngly. She huddled and drew her new fufs tightly about her, as though taking refuge in them. Gilchrist's gaze fell to the great, jagged skyline silhouetted before him. Chimneys poured no murky smoke into the world now. All was quiet, all was calm, all was peace. Wfce the day coming when men s souls would be as quiet, as calm, as peaceful as this dusk—this eve of shepherds, a manger, a child. The girl came toward him slowly. She found his arm. akimbo, and she tucked her head beneath it and
