The man who spoke was an ex-con- vict. He had just been released from | the penitentiary after serving a ten years’ sentence for embezzlement. He was not thirty-five, yet his hair was streaked with gray and there was a | certain hardness about the lips that comes from solitude and resentment. | In a word, Mark Burnham, with m.-;l tle or no bringing up, an orphan from | 8 tender age, had wasted five years of Finally temptation had come, he had | appropriated funds of his employer and had been convicted. During all those years of hard labor he had preserved a stolid, rather than a submissive attitude. He had count- ed the days on a notched stick. The last one had been reached. He was | freed with a new suit of clothes and a few dollars in his pocket. At the door of the prison he was met by a lawyer. A distant relative had left now claim it. The snug little fortune or its equiv- alent now reposed within a secret| pocket. That afternoon he had walked ; to a line of hills overlooking the coun- try around, to analyze his unexpected condition of affluence, to plan for the future. His mind was blank as an unwrit- ten page. He had no friends. He had paid the law its penalty. He was clear of the world, and its fortune, good or bad, all before him. Which path, indeed, might he take! As he recalled how harshly fate had dealt with him, as afar to the east he caught the glittering spires of a big bustling city, his breath came quick and hard. With all he had heard of A Bitter Scowl Wreathed His Face. clever criminal ways in his prison cell, how shrewdly might he use his little eapital in schemes to fleece the unm- wary, to emrich himself. Then, too, the pleasures of the great metropolis dazzled him. “To live the life!” he breathed hot- ly— “after those ten years, chained up like a wild beast!” Just then an echoing hail attracted his attention. From the doorway of & meat little farmhouse a comely girl- ish matron was waving a welcome to her husband, returning from work in the flelds. The observer noted the aspect of comfort and plenty about the place, the warm genuine love 8reeting of the twain. His lip quivered, a tear fell upon his outstretched hand. He turned from the sight. “Leve, pemce, happiness!” he mut. tered in a broken tone, “but not tor' me, the branded! the accursed of hu- manity!* A bitter seowl wreathed his face and he walked away from the spot amongst the deep shade of the river path. At that momest, as he realized that his | hand was against every man and ev- ery man's band against him, the wealth that had come to him was as worthless dross. There was a strug- gle between his better nature and the promptings of his recent environment, The word rang out involuntarily from his lips. Engrossed in thought, tramping on recklessly in his desper- ate mood, he had not noted his course, He had stumbled on a trailing viae. | The next moment he went heldlong' down the steep decline and was en-' gulfed by the rushing waters of the‘ turbid river. | There was a rapid swirl to the cuh; rent that at once swept him into mid- | stream. Burnham was not a swim- | mer. Helpless, he sank once, twice. ! Then his water-drenched gaze madef Out a man on the path, 25 feet up the ' sloping bank. He was a stranger, and quickly dropping a satchel he carried; he sprang into the water. \ Sinking for the third time, almost unconscious, Burnham felt himself be- | ing seized and dragged ashore. As he finally regained his senses it was to | find. his. rescuer Iying by his side on | e | | | GOOD OUTLOOK Fy, . . the shore. He was pale and gasping for breath. “You saved me!" cried Burnham gratefully, “but you—" ..i “I am hurt internally, seriously, I panted the other painfully. "Quick!, ! listen! my side struck a rock when li jumped, but I am glad I saved you.” | “But, man—" but just here the stranger closed his eyes and lay nerve less. Only once he revived. | “I am dying,” he breathed feebly.' “Promise me—my brother’s wldow—l in the satchel,” and passed away, grasping Burnham's hand in a convul- sive clutch. The next day Burnham started for a Gistant city. He carried with him the | satchel b lenging to the man who had szv~d his life. A change had come over him. The first strong im- pression of his new life was the sight of the peaceful farm life. It lingered like a picture. The second was grati- tude for the man who had given up his life to save his own. His thought ran rapidly. Sud- denly, thrillingly this outcast found his existence directed into new chan- nels. He had seen that his rescuer was buried. Then he had opened the satchel and inspected its contents. From that moment Mark Burnham be- came Eli Walters. i For he felt it a sacred trust to take up the life of his rescuer where the ' latter had lain it down. In the satchel he found a little hoard of about two hundred dollars. There were also let- ters and papers. An appeal had reached Walters from his brother’s | widow, whom he had never seen. He had decided to go to her, relieve her necessities and devote his years to care for her and her little family. Burnham found the Walters family destitute, indeed. He had assumedl the identity of a relative they had never seen and was accepted as the real Uncle Eli. That hard heart of his softened like wax as he employed the $200 to bring cheer and comfort where there had been despair and suf- fering. The widow was sickly and al- most an invalid. There were five lit- tle children. Within a week the chil- dren were grouping about him as though he were a real father, and the widow was filled with gratitude and hope. For the first time, one day, Burnham saw Ida Worth. She had been ill for & month and called while he was in the house. From the first, her earnest, patient face attracted him. He learned that she had practically supported the, widow and her family for several months, but illness had come and she was now as poor as themselves. She sald the doctor had prescribed a rest, country air, but that was beyond her attainment. “I'm going away for a day or two,” Burnham told Mrs. Walters that eve- ning. “My dream—! will make it true!” he pledged himself fervently. | Two weeks later Burnham conveyed | the Walters family and Miss Worth | | than 5 per cent of ; Number of collegc»Tra, Business Is of the & Significang, There was a tine | he lege graduates of ., clergymen, and v}, medical professio . nearly all the othr he plete college cours: istry, and the thr sions” together nu ity of the college.;; of the country.
