Nobody else was on the bridge at | that hour of the night--nobody but Leach and the unknown. And, after | all, why should Leach take it upon | himself to stop the fellow? Life was miserable enough. Why not let him | seek that oblivion that he sought? | It was only an undefinable instinct 'hat quickened Leach's footsteps as the intentions of the man in front of him began to be clear beyond a doubt. Suddenly the man threw off his coat and began to clamber out | upon the girders. At the Sane moment Leach grab- be a Ii «n began strugg:ing | violently. cae held on like grim | death, For a minute or two the other fought with such frenzied strength that it was all Leach could do to hold him. But at last he had him sub- dued. He was a weakling after all, one of those anemic, undeyeloped, undersized runts that haunt the slums of the cities. There was the stamp of the slum rat on the wizened features, "Aw, what you want with me? I ain't done nothing!" "You were just, going to jump off the bridge." "Well, supposing I was? 'That ain't no business of yours, is it? "Well, 1 guess it is," answered Leach. "No man has the right'to make away with himself." "No right, eh? Say, if you was up against what I am you'd feel different about it, I guess." '"Tell me your troubles." "You can't do nothing to help me. Why, you look down and out your- self!" 'sald the other, inspecting | Leach's ragged clothes for the first time. "What you doing here any- way?" "Don't worry about me," answered | Leach. 'Just worry about yourself. Let's put our heads together and see if we can't hit on a betted plan for you than jumping off the bridge. First thing that strikes me is, you look as if you're hungry." "Hungry?" shouted the other. 'Say "There's a lunch wagon at the end of the bridge. Suppose we go and have some coffee and an egg sand- wich, and then if you want to take the leap, why I guess I won't want to stop you. Grumbling, the would-be suicide yielded. He put on his coat and ac- companied Leach to the coffee wagon. "Ya see," he explained, "I been out of work for weeks, and my wife's sick, and there's a kid, and there ain't no fire, and then my mother-in: law, who brings us food, why, she's always on at me for a wastrel, and --Oh, it's hopeless, boss, that's what it is. "T've been out of work, too," sald Leach. "I haven't got a wife and a | kid, but if I had it would take more | than a mother-in-law to make me take that jump. Pull yourself to- gether, man! Go home and thank the Lord you didn't jump. Where would your wife and child be if you had dono itr "That's true," muttered the other, as he devoured his sandwich raven- ly. 'There'll be plenty of work in a little while," Leach continued. "You know how things are looking up. Why, say, you were just off your head, weren't you?" "I guess I was," mumbled the other sheepishly. "Why, once you get work--you've got a trade, haven't you Cabinet- maker? Why, man, you'll be earn- ing fine wages, and then you'll be- Bin putting a little aside against a | ralny day, and in a short time you 0 { have 2 swell bank account, and may- be a ear. And you'll be able to tell | Your mother-in-law where to go." The other stared at him. 'Say, | that's the stuff, Mister!" he answer- | ed. "You're dead right. No more of | the morgue for mine. I'm golng { straight home. And I dunn® how to thank you." "Oh, that's all right," Leach an- | swered, and he accompanied the man a little distance and watched him striding off in the distance with a hopeful stride. He looked back whimsically at the bidge. He felt the solitary nickel i that remained in his pocket. "Gee, that's good advice I gave | him," he muttered. "I'm glad I thought of it.

Then he proposed. ! From the opposite end of the craft she gazed at him calinly. Then she sald: "As a matter of common sense, realizing that we are in this boat, on water more than fifty foet deep, and that i you were to act as you should act if I accepted you we would be capsized, I will decline your proposal at the moment--but, George, row as fast as you can to the shore and ask me again!"
