He made his wish known to his only friend, Jim Collins, a hardworking me- chanic, but the latter would not listen to such a plan, “Not much, Cal, my boy,” declared the stalwart Jim, glancing kindly at his diminutive friend; “no poorhouse for you while I've got a home to share with you. My wife will be glad to| have you and you can do lots of things aroynd home to help us out.” After some hesitation, Cal accepted the kind offer, resolving to do every- thing he could in return for the home { he would have. Mrs. Collins soon grew to be very fond of the little man, who would do anything sooner than eat the bread of dependence. Cal's chief delight was in the eve ings after Jim returned from work. The supper dishes cleared away and the children tucked snugly into bed, the two men would sit with their pipes, Jim reading and Cal listening, to the evening paper. Thus they lived until an event oc- currcd that came near upsetting the ements of the little home. Jim taken ill; his malady doeveloped into a duvgerous fever that prostrated him for weeks.

She could | not work herself; the care of Jim and the children prevented that. How was help to come? | The answer came from the mest | unexpected source. Cal shrewdly | guessed that affairs were in a critl cal state and at once blamed himself for it. IHud it not been for the added expense he had caused the family would have been able to lay aside suf- ficient to carry them over the period of Jim's illness. He was the cause of it all and upon him rested the re- sponsibility of relieving the situation. Vhat could he do to get meney? Cal 1ed hig head until the bald spot gor and the wrinkles on his ead decpened.
