"I thought better af him than thatl" h« said to himself bitingly. "Assumed name â€" making love to a girl! Always thought him guilty, but he was a boy and the old man â- nay have been provoking; was mighty provoking sonitimes. Now ke'« a man â€" no excuse at all! T ought to tell Bur'esoii; she's his â- iece." He suddenly decided to go down to the great Trust Company build- ing where Burleson held sway. Fos- dick had been doing .t little busi- â- ess for him and Burleson had tele- phoned several times for him to come over and close it up. * * *â-  Burleson was affable; he wanted to »ec him, he .said abocit the Grant Barton estate.

Burleson recalling torn* dctalli about it now, looked across the ta- ble at his colleague. "Isn't it near time for that bo/ to be out?" he asked suddenly. "He's out." Burleson was perceptibly star- tled. "Since when?" "Four or five weeks I think â€" maybe more." Fosdick drummed on the table with his fingers; he was considering whether he would tell Burleson all about it or not. "He came here to get his aunt's money; you remember she left him about twenty thousand â€" more or less." * * * Burleson shook his head; he had shifted his chair a little and lay back in it now, thinking. "He hasn't thought of claiming Barton's money yet, has he?" "He says he won't until he's cleared," Fosdick's smile widened. "Cleared?" Burleson did not smile. "The deuce I Does he ex- pect to clear himself after fifteen years?" "He probaby knows he can't be oleared at all," Fosdick replied af- fably "and he's talking bluff!" "But he hasn't tried to get that money," Burleson persisted. "Oh, he will!" Fosdick retorted testily; "of course he will!" There was a long pause and then Burleson said flatly: "I think he should have it." Fosdick looked at him thought- fully, something like a twinkle in bis eye, "I didn't know you liked him. You testified against him, Burleson." "That's neither here nor there," said the great man bluntly; "he was seventeen, wasn't he? What's be Hke now?' Fosdick considered. "He's big, good looking; got a snap to him. You wouldn't know him. I advised him to go West." Burleson nodded.

"The West is the best place for him; he can live it down out there. Fifteen years, isn't it? By Jovel" Burleson drew a long breath, "it's a slice out of any man's life!" Burleson swung back in his chair, staring out of the window. "Look here," he said slowly, "if he needs a little help â€" you understand? A fresh start. I don't want my name used, but I'll give it to him." Fosdick stared. Then he laughed dryly. "Would you like to sec him at your house?" he asked mali- ciously; a perverse imp had, so far, kept him silent. It was amus- ing to imagine the great man's sur- prise. ".•\t my house?'' Burleson frowned. "No! What do vou mean by that?" "Vou wouldn't know liim if he catnc, that's all," Fosdick replied coolly, "especially if he changed his name." * ♦ ♦ Burleson iioddcci, "Is he consid- ering that?" "Decidedly," Fosdick laughed; "I think he's done it already." "Well, I don't know as I'd blame him for that cither!" He glanced out of the window again absently. It was plain that his mind was pre- paring to exclude Fosdick. "When you get those shares come up and we'll talk it over. I may buy a few more," he said, shortly, re- verting to their prcvous business. Fosdick rose;' he understood his dismissal. Suddenly he made up his mind not to tell Burleson about Mark yet. But he stopped at the door to send a shaft back. "You'll have to get someone else to help you out with Grant â€" if you want to start him â€" I've always be- lieved him guilty, you know." Burleson frowned slightly. "That shouldn't kcci) you from being fair," he said bruskly; "it was un- prtincditatcd: he's been punished". .\fter Fosdick went Burleson rose from his scat and stared out of the window. It was bcRinning to spit snow. He summoned his secretary, cave a few sharp orders and left his office. ♦ » ♦ He bcyan to walk steadily uptown and ;lic dash of snow in the air in- vi.ijoratcd him. The crowds were thinning a lit- tle now, as he made his way up- town, hut still they hemmed him In and he felt that singular loncli- ne-s'! which as.sails the wayfarer in a city throng. He was an old man. and his wife and his children were long since de.id; it sccnicd to him, fonieliincs, that a siuRular ill luck, in that respect, had pursued him. He had lost three sons. He had no heir, he had made up his mind to leave his estate, the major part of it, to Pam. She was not a blood relation, only his wife's niece, but the girl had crept into his heart and softened it; she was the only one for whom he felt real Jendcr- ness; the only one for whom he would have made a sacrifice. * * * He was progressing steadily when aoineone brushed against him in the crowd, laughed saucily and caught his sleeve. It was Pain her- self. I "I've been chasing you half a block, Uncle Herbert!'' she panlcd. j His face softened; he was often • amazed at his own weakness for this girl; he drew her hand through his arm. "You ought to go home, miss; it's going to snow hard!" His tone to her was always kind, different; she knew it â€" a sour, hot tempered old man, too! She laughed. "I love snow! I've been out with Aunt Lynn â€" you know what that means!" "A socially conducted journey, «h?" he smiled grimly. "You're a little rebel, Pam." "Uncle Herbert, I wish you'd tell Aunt Lynn that I'm old enough to , go where I please andâ€" and Archie Landon hasn't any business to dic- tate about my friends!" "So Landon meddles, does he? I thought the boy had more sense." "He hasn't any! In the first place, be brought a friend of his to the house. Then he talks to Aunt Lynn because I lunched with liis guest to- day â€" if you please!" * * « "I see! You've been lunching out with a man and got into trou- ble with your aunt. That's it, isn't it?" "I've got a right to lunch with anyone, haven't I?" Pam tossed her head, then she laughed. "You see, the trouble is I can't be sly â€" someone always sees me! Archie Landon saw me today; so did that hateful old Fosdick of yours!" Burleson looked down at the channii '. flushed_face critically. "Fosdick didn't talk, young lady; he's just been to my office. Old men are wiser than young ones, after all!" "I wouldn't care a pin for Lan- don," said Pain hotly, "only it's mean â€" he brought the man him- self."

CUrke Having a soldier son go over- seas has its compensations â€" that is if you have plenty of friends and relations in the Old Country, »• we have. It is nice to get first hand information of those whom we have not seen for so long â€" and it is nice to know that our son has somewhere to go where he is •ur« of a welcome. Family con- tacts mean a great deal to us all, especially at this time. Bob was able to get four days leave to visit his grandmother', and other relations. Grandma is eighty- seven and Bob writes of her â€" "she is so old and so wise but the air-raids have shattered her nerves badly so that she is not able to speak distinctly." But still the two of them enjoyed each other's com- prny so much â€" after a separation of fifteen years. Sometimes I wonder if there is a special af- finity between the very old and the very young â€" an understanding which is not. possible to those whom a lesser number of years divides. * * * Son Bob also visited a very great friend of mine who took him around to tome of the historic places in that district â€" places which may be known to a few readers of this column. Christ church Catherdral was one of them, built in 1903. The beautiful stained glass windows are still there. They were lucky enough to get permis- sion to climb to the top of the tower and into the belfry where they saw the big clock wound up by hand and were right behind it when it struck the half-hour West- minster chimes. One hundred and forty-three steps took them to the top of the one hundred and fourteen-foot tower and from it they could look all over the town and across the channel. They also went over the old Priory which Bob described as one of the most wonderful places he ever expects tc see. He was thrilled with it all. I expect you will feel as we do, that it is really marvellous so many of these fine old buildings have survived the terrific bombings to which little old England has been subjected for so long. Will our 'modern buildings last as long? JAP SCOURGER / Following Bob's letter came on« from Grandma, or rather from h«f daughter who lives with her, an4 she was so distressed because th« house was very cold when Bob got there â€" and because the blackouts and indoor air-raid shelter hav« spoiled the appearance of their home. Naturally that doesn't worry us so much as hearing of the house being cold. The old lady has been staying in bed until after dinner for some time in order to con- serve fuel. Knowing that, it doesn't make us feel any more comfort- able w^hcn w^e hear over the radio that Englanu has recently experi- enced one of the coldes' and storm- iest winters in its history. Doesn't it make one feel ashamed to grumble at the inconveniences that our Canadian winter has caused ut when wc have little other reason . for complaint. A And yet being human, we still , djrumble. Last week we had two Venice days â€" and how we enjoyed them. And now, here we are, snowed in as bad as ever. HUSBANDS ENJOY the Btimulating flavor of Max- well House Coffee.
