H “Teds?” wondered Catherine, as) though shocked. But Philip did not | sense the pun, He gave a short and, te him, woefully inaccurate explana- tion of the tidal action, This time Catherine did not let so much time elapse. “I wonder why the ancients used to call the moon ‘luna’?” ehe murmured pensively. “Why, I can’t say," he said regret- fully, “‘Luna’—Latin word, I sup- pose.” He frowned, ‘Maybe it's from the same root as lunatic.’ Guess it is." She clapped her hands lightly, “And yet you say that the moon can have No effect upon us!" she laughed de- lightedly, tantalizingly. “Although the ancients must have considered | that the moon was to blame for evory- He pondered this seriously, 80 seri- ously that Catherine said, as lightly | as she could: “Hasn't the moon ever ingpired you to recklessness, Mr, Fos- ter?” 1 Instantly his face lighted up. “Oh, my, yes! I've had any number of ideas about the moon. For instance—" He stopped, remembering that he was not talking to Bates. But Catherine, taking care not to appear too eager, | urged him to go on. “Well, this is it: Go to the moon nothing but the finest of black broad- cloth, Yet his shoes were repaired with the utmost care, as long as chey would | hold together; his broadcloth was worn until it shone as brightly as his shoes. He did not believe in using anything cheap, but neither did he spend five cents without wetting full value. As to his generosity in mat- ters of charity, and other qualities of a more intimate nature, they must be left to others to describe We are con- cerned here with the man the world knew.

But the people in the outer office were al! of a younger set and none knew the rather striking face of the old man, although his white chin whiskers, nd build a large, air-tight hotel.

Catherine had all she could do to reaiat his enthusiasm, Instead, she commented; “You must be pretty! anxious to get rich!" He became acutely self-consctous, He made some lame reply, and Cath- erine Brett came to a conclusion which was net at all unwarranted under the circumstances, As she rose to her feet, #he took short, stu¥by and “Dutchy" ougnt to have stirred their memories. He |Shook his head about Bates, 1 know the custom,” he sald in bis { peculiarly soft voice. “However, it will be necessary for me to see Mr. Foster, I did not make an appoint. ment, but merely telephoned before I left San Jose, to make sure that he would be here to-day.” So the old fellow was certain that Foster would see him, mused a ste- nographer. Then the word “San Jos did the rest. “You're David Sulzman!” she said with genuine pleasure. And the old me * pleas an Was gat. toh he expected, Phili lo see him. The old man faced th younger across a low, clay-filled modeling-table, at which Philip had been working when the millionaire entered, “A relief map of the Mount Lassen reservoir system,” explained Philip, “which we have just finished PD was willing for the Volcanic Steam Power Deople.” - “You seem to specialize on big things,” remarked David Sulzman; then, as Philip made no comment: ““L have come to the right man.” “The right firm," protested the en- gineer, with a smile. “Bales is the Man you should talk to, really; ai- though I am more than glad to have mtt you.” His eyes went back to the clay. David Sulzman merely made him- self a little more comfortable in hin chair, "Mr. Bates may be a ver: clever man, and no doubt is,” said he, with his deliberate gentleness “But the thing I have in mind re- quires somthing more than exeoutive ability. It will take originality of the highest possible order.” His was indeed an astounding prep- onition, (Do Not Miss To-Morrow's Faseinat- his arm and gave it a friendly squeeze, Ing Inatalment,)
