The poet raved. “Ah, man,” he exclaimed. “To feel that thrill, to know the heavens are kissing your earth, to know that the birds are singing for you, to know life is sweet in all its aspects and that only a little removed from the angels, you are truly in heaven! Did you ever have that feeling, that wonderful sensation of freedom from stress and anxiety?” “Yet, I've had it said the one- man audience, soulfully. “I went home once and my wife didn't have anything to jump on me about!” And so they sat, two souls with but a_single thought, in the ecsta- AnLrospacUam.

He hadn't been near the safe the day he left. and the money was there when he closed it the day before! Thoughts —forebodings. _plans, helplessness raced through his brain in the first panic of the moment.

Hoping to gain the street umnob- served, Pete started, a urally as possibie, for the door. Before he could reach it. however. Brud Haw- kins pushed it apen, and called che ily: “Ready. Alden? let's go. At the sound of his name Pete imagined he felt the concentrated stare of a half dozen palrs of eyves on his back.

Haw- kins exclaimed. his admiring eves moving slowly from Pete’s feet toward his head, when they met his eyes. lingered a moment, then widened in tastonishment. God, man. what's wrong?" Pete met the alarmed look of the miner with a straight though badly startled stare. He moistened his lips end jerked his thumb over his shoulde: ‘Inside, on wall, look.” Puzzled at the strange manner of his newly made acquaintance. Haw- kins frowned siightly and walked through the door Feeling miserable beyond words, Pete braced himself against the cor- ner of the building, determined to take the new blow. If it came, as just 80 much more justly deserved punish- ment, and let matters run their course. A moment inside and Hawkins came out. Looking earnestly at Pete, he_asked, “Well boy, did you do it2" Pete looked straight at him. and answered. “Then buck up, son, look Itke you might have somebody in the bargain. we're late, let's go Yet even as Hawkins said it, Pete's heart swelled with gratitude at the simple _straightforwardness of the man. He had known men for years, but could count on the fingers of one hand those who would so quickly and whole-heartedly dismiss so serious a matter, and accept their own judg- ment.of him as final. Hawkins, though, was doing far more_than this. He was still invit- ing Pete to accompany him to the mountains; and Pete, unaccustomed though he was to the open life of his new surroundings, quickly caught the unusual spirit of comradeship that prompted Hawkins' words. Yet he hesitated long before he answered. No, 1 don't see how I can.” he finally stammered. “1 don't care for myseif—but father. poor, dear old dad; it'1l kil him, I'm sure it will kill him. 1 never dreamed of that,” wav- ing & hand at the saloon, “when 1 left.
