He invited them all into the drawing room and chatted with them awhile about almost every- thing else in the world except Mm- cere self. Finally, olie of the reporters broke in with a protest that he had told nothing of his adventures. * "What 'happened to me is of no consegnende,' Uncle John said '1 am but one man, and where a world ik involved, "where an entire civiliza- tion is at stake, one man's affairs are too small to be given any atten- tion whatever," And that was all he would way to _.them. "But when we are alone he some- times drops a statement which re veals the extent of his hardships when 'he was escaping. . For in- stance, last night when we were at dinner he picked up a piece of bread, looking at it for a few moments, and then said: 'It is impossible 'to imagine how much one can want bread!' Then he turned the subjeet suddenly, as thQugh "he was afraid he would betray a secret. "The day after he came home he' went to his office. Strangely en- ough, no one there had heard of his return, and when he walked in upon them they thought he was a ghest. Of course, some of the stenograph- ers were compelled to faint, and this made it really romantic and interest- ing. And some of the men felt like fainting, T am sure, because I have known for some time that they did not expeet Uncle John to return, and some of them have been conducting his business accordingly. I dislike to think what will happen to them when he finds out what they have been doing, ner will it take him long to find it out, for you know he is a genius at business, and if®there is anything 'wrong about 'his affairs he senses it just as a mechanieal en- gineer can listen to a house full of machinery and tell you that theve is a hair screw loose in a certain en- gine. But 1 am sure that most of his assistants are fine fellows, and have been doing their best to direct his interests in the proper way. They will not "ose angthing by it, either, for you know 'he is the most gener- ous man in the world. "I told him about your husband's death, but 1 will write yéu about that and other matters concerning you and your affairs in a few days, Now that Uncle John is here, you ean be sure that your business will he transacted in the proper way.
