Ennis turned to give a waiter some instructions a^id McCltfud continued. "That man's George Perry He works for Hudson & Company. He was the clerk they bound and gagged that night."

He trembled, and stuttered with excitement as he leaned over the table. "Excuse me, Mr. Ennls--Smoke Johnson's back there with a heater lookin' for you." He indicated the door leading to the rear of the speakeasy. McCloud was on his feet in an instant and accompanied the waiter toward the door Ennls. afraid hesitated, rose and followed the pair. "Hi, Pete." McCloud called as he approached the door and spied a waiter he knew Pet£ mobbed his face with a handkerchief and Jerked his thumb toward the back room as he spoke. His voice was almost breaking with nervousness. "Don't go in there! §moke's gone native--he's in there with a gun, sweatin' gin an' blood In his eye. He claims Ennis crossed him with a phony tip on the races. He's gonna kill somebody sure." He grabbed McCloud by the arm and polpted to a side door "You can go through there. McCloud--there's a window leads to the alley--you can plug him from behind." Ennis was close behind him. "1 know you don't carry a gun, Johnnie." He produced his own and handed It to the oftfeer "Better take mine " "Put it away It might go off and hurt somebody " McCloud went to the door leading to the back room. He carefully opened it a fraction of an inch and peeped in. A burlynegro, cockeyed drunk, and twirling a large revolver, stood by the of the small rung upon which Smoke was standing and gave it a shai> yank. The unexpected move threw Smoke completely off balance and caused the gun to drop from his hand as he fell McCloud leaped into battle, clipping the negro on the chin with a fierce, savage lunge that toppled him with a crash against the floor The victim lay unconscious on the floor and McCloud ordered a waiter to throw him out into the alley and tell the cop on the corner to call the wagon. Then he returned to the booth with Ennis to continue their conversation as though nothing had happened. ( "Much obliged. Johnnie. I guess that that's the favor you were talk*, ing about." The officer smiled. "Oh. no--that was doin' Smoke Johnson a favor. But I'm gonna do something for you. Mossie, right now." He became casual.

"If you're goin' to marry Lola,", said Ennis to McCloud. "you'd bet* ter take It up with your friend. Mr.; Perry."

This Tradition in reg&rd to the Spendthrift Inclinations of those who come into Easy Money has given risfc to a Saying that in any Prominent Family there are only two Generations between Shirt Sleeves and Shirt Sleeves. The large Idea being that Grandpa rakes it In and piles it up and then Son starts in to celebrate with it, after which Grandson completes the Job of Distribution in a neat and workmanlike manner „ and finds hltnself sitting on the Curb without one iroja Man to rub against another, thereby completing the Cycle and setting himself back to the Zero Station from which his respected Grandparent started some 75 $ears earlier in the Game. ' ,jjLlsten to the Story of the Hoppers will learn how Ellas toiled In his Shirt Sleeves away back yonder In li&o and put In the Foundations ofia tidy Fortune and now, in 1932, his only Grandchild, Cyril Hopper, Is out in the Open every day, stripped down to his Shirt Sleeves, working eight times as hard as old Ellas ever worked back yonder in the prehistoric Days of Benver Hats, Top Boots, Tallow Candles and Fundamentalism. He Was pood to His Dollars. Elias descended upon the Middle West in a Prairie Schooner with a Small Assortment of Household Goods, the 'Trading Instincts of a Vermonter arid a firm Belief that the worst Crime In the Category was to spend a Copper Coin which might be deposited in the Sock. He opened a Store and invited the Patronage of those who could pay. He collected Bad Accounts with the aid of' a Musket. The Employees at his Sawmill were paid $1 a day, and those who hauled Grain to his Grist'Mill and traded for Flour and Meal could always drive back Home knowing that they had not taken any Mean Advantage of FJias. While most of the other Residents were hunting and fishing or trying to solve the Slavery Question by Vocal Exertions, he wns peering into the Fu ture, visualising the eventful Impor tance of Hoppersville and copping all of the good Corners on Main Street and most of the Frontage between. History tells us that the Lads who came from the Granite Hills out to the land of fruitful Plenty and wideopen Opportunity certainly made the other Pioneers look like timid Pikers. Ellas was in on every paying Propo sition in the whole County, one of bis best Stunts being to organize a Bank and corral all of the loose Capital of the Region and then loan It back to the Enterprises with which he was hooked up, at the same time carrying the Suckers along at Two Per Cent a Month, with all of their VJt^l Organs put up at Security. He was more than a Captain of Industry. He was Commander-in-Chief of every known Form of legalized Graft. Ewry time a Dollar came to visit him nt found a p^pnnnent Home. A One-Word Vocabulary. , In due time the Go-Getter found him self worrying overa Son who had been Christened Alexander and who was he-' ing groomed to carry on the Noble Campaign of annexing as much as possible of the Western Hemisphere. He was sent to a first-class College and came back with a full Set of dark Side Whiskers and a Guitar. The sordid Details connected with the Store, the Bunk, the Sawmill, the Grain Elevator, the Farms, the Brick-Yard, etc., etc., did not appeal to him but he could Polfca and Schottische until as late as il p. m„ and often did so. Elias died at a ripe Old Age and Alec came into Everything and Immediately began to manage the complicated Estate with all of the Sagacity of a fresh-water Pickerel. He was what is known as a Good Fjpllow. That Is, he would Guy Anything tint was ror Sale, listen to any Bird who had a Song to sing, and fall for any Proposition outlined on beautiful Stationery, If Ellas turned over In his Grave every time thht Alexander got hooked and was spread from a Portion of the Legacy, then the old Gentlemen must have tak en a lot of Exercise. The Successor to the Throne invented new and spectacular Ways in which to be n Booh. He tuylt a House which looked like a Resort Hotel and the In terior Decorators said he was a Lovely Man to work for because, he had only one Word In his Vocabulary and that was "Yes." He tried to ham-string the Board of Trade, taking his Tips from a Down. and-Outer who had been licked by the Market all his Life and whose Percentage as a Gnesser was .000. He went to Galleries in Europe and New York and bought Paintings which, the Come-On-l4ids told him were by Celebrated Artists, than which there can be no more speedy Method of say Ing Good-Bye to the Bank Account. He was Pie for Promoters who were letting a few Prominent Men of the Right Sort In on the Ground Floor. He needed two large Boxes at th« Safety Deposit in which to stons his Ducks and Drakes, Brick-Bats, Rags and Iron. He entrusted all of his Business Affairs to those who complimented h« Singing, and in all of his perfumed Career he neveF could find out how «the Book-Keepers wera keeping their Bd'oks." All be knew was that they were using the Red Ink and talking about Profit and Loss. * ' Alexander did all he could „to ruin the Offspring. First he hung the Monicker of ^Byi4l~on^tft.-ihe defpnsg^ AND' BELL less Infant, then he hired an imported Gover ness to make the Child as European as possible, tlj^n he had the poor Kid take Violin Lessons, and finally he turned him over to a Tutor who had such a Brilliant 1 Mind that he could not secure ordiaary Employment. Cyril was told every 20 Minutes that he must , grow up to be an Aesthete and an Aristocrat--a Fleut de- Lis blooming in thfe Corn Belt. ; > Gets Back to Naturi. They must have rfverdosfed him. Wbert Alexander went skyward a few years ago1 to contributed his throaty Tenofr to the Heavenly Choir, young Cyril took a swift survey- of the Situation and arrived at cerfaih definite Conclusions. - < . .' ', According tt» all Rules And Prece^ dents he should have taken what was left to"the Estate and (started another Jubilee. lie had every Excuse for, being a Spender, hut after he looked over the alleged Securities in the Vault, he made a solemn Inward Vow that, for all Time, he would play nothing but Cinches, Keep his Fingers crossed and never take his foot off of Second Base. His demented Dad had not wasted all of the Corner Lots. The New England irhcestry asserted itself. Cyril said that the Unearned Increment, with a safe Trust Company as Manager, was good enough for him. He took a Lead PeucU and figured that all he needed was a few 99-Year Leases and several Bales of tax-exempt Bonds and complete Paralysis of the Helping Hand, and he would be fixed with an income which would stand up, no matter what the Head Waiters did to him. Any one who says that All of the Progeny of the Prosperous are wild Wastrels simply ignores the plath Evidence. Cyril has Joined the Colony of those who say "Nothing is too good for Us but we have practicfally no Acquaintances." The Boy and his ftride, are now In Florida and he Is back Shirt Sleeves, the same ati hir ragged Grandpu. One Day he will he In his Shirt Sleeves out In the Gulf Stream, in his $10,000 Power Skiff, trying to land a Sail Fish.

As a result of this, a great many men and women, who would formerly have been dependent upon relatives or Institutions for the blind, have been able to earn their own living and have enjoyed a much fuller and more varied life. But it Is surprising to learn that it is now possible to teach blind people to cook, and that some of them have done very well, indeed, at this work. They distinguish different Ingredients by means of the sense of touch. The same sense also helps them in measuring, quantities and in the management of the cooking-stove. Other senses come Into play. Sound tells the blind cook when a liquid begins to. simmer, when it gets hotter, and finally when it boils. And if a dish is cooking too qnickly, that fact is advertised by the sense of, smell. Electric stoves are safest for the blind cook.--London Answers. "Yes, sir, ten years ago all this land around here sold for a dollar and a quarter an acre." "And what does U srtl ^ -Taxes."
