M. EGBERT. All through the five years of his prison life John Dunton fought down the bitterness in his heart which told him that his wife was responsible for the tragic wreck that had come to both of them. A bank clerk, earning $30 a week, Dunton had tried to “keep his front up” in the gossipy little suburban town. He had tried for Lola’s sake. Her father was the leading lawyer in Taunton, and she had been reared in every luxury. It was for her sake that at last he had stolen money to play the races. During the first week of his im- prisonment his wife was too broken to come near him. When at last she came she whispered that which made the imprisonment still more poignant. A child was to be born to them. Lola visited him at widening inter- vals. So passed four years. She had gone back to her parents. Noth- ing was ever said about the future until a month before’ Dunton’s impris- onment expired. Then, to his surprise, the bank presi- dent called on him. Mr. Gray was a good man, kindly as he was honorable and silent. Having vindicated the ma- Jjesty of the law, he told Dunton that his position would be open to him when he returned. “You have a good wife and a son, Dunton,” he said, grasping the convict by the hand. “Don’t get any foolish notions about making a fresh start somewhere else, but come straight home and live down your past in a manly way among those who know you.” Dunton was overwhelmed with hap- piness. He wrota to Lola, telling her of the invitation. A couple of weeks later Lola came to the prison, and before she spoke a word Dunton could see that the in- terview was to be a painful one. “It's about your letter, John,” said his wife, “Yes,” answered the convict, wait- ing. “It isn’t that I don’t want to take you back,” she cried. “I've suffered enough these five years. But have you Have yoy thought of your son, John? “Have You Thought of What It Means?" thought what it means to have him ! grow up in a little town where every- { one will point his finger at him and say, ‘That is the son of a convict? Have you thought of that, John?” “Yes, I have thought of it during all | these miserable years,"” answered Dun- ton. “And this is my plan, Lola. Come out West with me, where no one will | know us, and we can start the battle | of life anew.” The wife averted her face. “The battle of life!” she murmured. “O heavens, haven't we both had battle enough and to spare?” “We can but t She flashed on “John, if we go for me need am not used to roughing it. 1 need comf .., even lusury.

Then the day came when the pris- on gates were opened. John Dunton, in a new suit and with $15 in his | pocket, left the place of his shame and humiliation behind him forever. Lola had not come to see him and say good-by. Dunton felt no bitter ness at that. He realized that the final meeting would only have caused her pain. It was his plan to work his way West, little by little. He had no thought of going down to Taunton again. Put when he stepped into the free world there came over him an irresistibie desire to see the little ton who had been born to him. He resolved to go down to Taun- ton under cover of night and plead to be allowed to set eyes on the boy's face. Surely this much would not be refused him, to be cared for? I, He took the train to the mctropo- lis, and from there a local to Taunton. He reached the town an hour before sunset, and hung about the outs rts. He could not face the people whom he had known. He felt little shame on his own account. It was for the sake of the boy. And no sacrifice was t00 great for him. It was about an hour bel when he crept up to the 1 house, which stocd in gronnds in a fash hood. Nobody had re breathed more freely » his goal. Tlfrough the window he saw his father-in-law seated at a table read- ing a newspaper. But ever and anon the old man would put the paper down and pace the room nervously. He was evidently laboring undera severe strain. Was it because this was the day of John Dunton’s freedom? The watcher looked up. the blind was drawn.
