CHAPTER XXVII.
A LEGAL DISTINCTION’.
“Ah, Mr. Breton, yes, yes, I was sure you
would come. "
The lawyer pulled two chairs together near
his office table. Jolm T. Geldings had
?hcaged a great deal since the time when ho
undertook to engineer the corporation
scheme. Apparently bo was going down hill
eery fast, without brakes. Ilis eyes woro a
glassy look, as if he had just waked from a
drunken sleep. The smooth round ness of his
illeel;s was gone, ins lower jaw was strongly
marked, and his nose seemed drawn out and
sharpened to give the effect of a bird of prey.
Philip glanced significantly about the room.
The lawyer followed Ids eyes and laughed.
“Changed some, aren’t we—all lack of
money. Actually, you have no idea how $10
even would furbish this old tablo and polish
this floor. Times aiut as they were, Mr. Bre¬
ton, in the old days, when I used to get fat fees
out of nieu like your father. Nice man, your
father. But,” and he leered meaningly at
his visitor, “when wo do get a chance for a
dollar 1 tell yoa wo jump at it.” He tipped
back his chair against his half filled book
shelves and peered familiarly into Philip’s
stern face. “Why, look at those dirty fel¬
lows back by the door. Time was I wouldn’t
notice a client unless be wore w hite collar
and cuffs. But now for business. 1 suppose
you were a little astonished to get my let-
ter?”
“I should prefer not to have listeners,” re¬
marked Philip, coldly.
“Oh, well, 1 will finish with these fellows
first, then. I thought you might ho im¬
patient.”
“Not at all, sir."
The lawyer’s clothes were threadbare anil
soiled, and the black fe!t hat that he wore,
indoors and out, well slouched over his eyes,
was torn in the crown. Philip
him with his shabby looking callers, and
could not see but the clients looked as well as
their patron. But at every sign of poverty
and degradation his heart sank lower and
lower, for the man must be reckless and
hungry as a man eating shark. If it lay in
his power to rack the life out of a victim—
the man could have no restraint of character
or decency to hold back his hand. Could
there bo anything be know about Bertha’s
past, that terrible gap Philip had not tried
to look into? He flared not think. Impatient!
he dreaded the moment when the lawyer
should sead away his soiled clients. Philip
started each time he half turned as if to coma
back. But when Glutting* closed the door
after the poor wretches, which was not until
a little roll of bills had passed from
hands to his, and came back to his seat,
young mill owner did not seem to
him until the lawyer said:
“I have filled out a complaint, but havl
not signed it yet.”
Philip looked at him blankly. “What is
complaint!”
“Well, my dear sir, a man of your
might pass a lifetime and never
Ahem! It is a form of procedure that
generally understood to be applicable only
the poor. When a wretch has committed
burglary, for instance, sotno friend of
as 1 for example, goes before a
and makes certain charges. Then the
devil is arrested, dragged before the
and tried.”
“Well, sir, what aro your complaints
me!”
Tho lawyer smiled. “Strictly,
unless you identify yourself with a
calling herself Bertha Breton.” Ho
to notice the effect of In's words.
“My wife,” gasped Philip. “Oh, for
sake, speak quick!”
“You have been lately married?”
“A week ago.”
“The woman you have married has a
band already. By remarrying as she
done she has committed a felony by
laws. Some rather inaccurately call
crime bigamy. A state prison offense, I
suppose you know—I mean for her. The
of our .state does not touch you.”
“But she told mo she was free to marry.”
How far off his voice sounded. Was it lie,
indeed, in a low attorney’s office, discussing
his wife, whether she were a felon or no.
was like a horrible dream; too horrible to be
anything but a dream; but he could
awake from it.
“No doubt she thought so,” said the law¬
yer, charitably; “but let me show you."
opened a drawer in front of him, and took
out a long paper. Isn’t it odd, women have
no notion of folding a legal document cor¬
rectly. Did you ever notice it?”
“No, I never noticed it,” answered Philip,
mechanically. He felt as if he were standing
still, while tho world was flying from under
his foot.
“This is the marriage certificate. It
proper in form, you will see.”
Yes; it seemed correct. Bertha's name
there, and Curran’s. They seemed to leap
out of the parchment as he read. And there
were two witnesses. Ho rubbed his eyes.
“Thomas Bailes”—that was the name of the
servant ho had turned away. Yes; it
not an hoar ago he turned him away.
“Who is this Thomas Bailes?”
“Ho was a waiter at the ‘Lockout house’
where tlse happy couple were made one.”
The paper fluttered to the floor, the
of tho room seemed rushing in upon him,
while the grinning face of the lawyer danced
in hideous measure before his eyes.
God, in his mercy, sending him death? When
his brain cleared again the lawyer was talk¬
ing still.
“You will wonder how I happen to possess
this paper, but you will recollect my adver¬
tisement at the top of my letter head? Well
it seemed Mrs. Curran, excuse me, grew tired
of her uncongenial husband, quite outside
her sphere of course. A fine fellow that Cur¬
ran was too. But the young lady naturally
sighed for her old, more refined associations.
Her husband d< ,s nothing but shock her.
She becomes wretched, her craze is over, the
reality is not to her delicate taste at all.
What next? She leaves him. Fortune throws
n: Ivertisement in her way and I receive a
l acr from her address, then at Vinebom,

wRhout trouble or publicity, for any
dt.:: ..‘.1* She would Le free as air again,
to end her life, as she no doubt intended, in
conventual retirement.”
U hidings threw his feet upon the table and
smil'd very slyly. “I undertook her suit.
What h-?'tor cause could there Is? than
compatibility. Oh, no; she need not come

tho l i-.vy- ■' winked horribly at his
“Curran himself was within twenty miles
Lockout during the pendency of the suit,
hr • ■• guessed his wife was br ing
from htm; and 1 rton t believe be knows it to
this day. Ha, ha’” And ho laid his head
back on his chair and laughed till the tears
ran down his face.
“But you procured her a divorce?" It is
almost worth pain to have the exquisite de¬
light that comes with relief.
Philip felt ashamed that he had distrusted
God so natch. How much more joyfully hs
could cherish his wife than before. There
was no blot of shame on her sweet name.
There was no page in her life the whole world
might not look at then. And this man wanted
a reward for what he had done, aye, and be
should have it. There was no gift too great
for him who hail turned this young husband’s
bitterest memories sweet, who had made his
life and his love like that of other men. He
reached forward and grasped the lawyer’s
oily hand in hearty good will.
Gidding’s stared at him in silence a mo¬
ment. Then he moved uneasily in his chair
and released his hand.
“I guess you don't understand," he had
enough of his manhood left to hesitate. It
was actually a more disagreeable business
than ho had counted on. “Such secret eon-
veni.it divorces as I get don't stand in our
com-ts. The whole thing is bogus, my dear
sir.” Philip’s face had become like a dead
man’s. “Issued by the supreme judicial court
of Utah, it says on them; but there Is no such
court, and as for the seal, I keep it in this little
drawer. Besides, if there were such a court,
and its genufne seal were stamped on a decree
of divorce, it would amount to nothing when
both parties live in this state. Our state
makes its own decrees. Utah decrees or the
decrees of any foreign state or territory are
void here. Your wife is Curran’s wife yet.
She is a? much married to him today as she
ever was.”
“How am I to know but that you are lying
to mef
Tho attorney handed him over a file of
letters with a shrug of his shoulders. “Yon
need not wade through them all, the last is
conclusive, I think you will agree with mo.”
Mb Biddings— Dear Sir—I received this morn¬
ing the divorce from the supreme judicial court
of Utah, and you will find inclosed a draft for
the second half of the $300 agreed upon. Ol
course I have to reiy wholly on your assuranco
that my divorce is complete, and that I have a
right to resume my maiden name. I than ft you
for the quiet way in which you have have man¬
aged it. 1 did'not suppose it could be done so
easily. I only wonder Mr. Curran has taken it
so calmly, he seemed almost wild when l (list
left him. Yours gratefully,
Bertha Eujxgswobth.
Yes, there was no doubt about it. It wax
Bertha’s handwriting; no forgery could havo
deceived her lover’s eyes. How little sha
fancied he would ever be reading it over, and
cursing the first hour he ever looked on her
dear face. IIo watched the attorney put it
back on file again. It seemed a desecration
to lay one of her notes in the stained, tin
box, with the ignoble company of lying and
suppliant letters.
“She seems to have rellbd completely on
some assurance of yours that her divorca
would be good. Philip tried to speak calmly
to this man, who held his darling’s fate in
tho hollow of his hand, but his voice trem¬
bled, and almost broke.
“You are not well,” exclaimed tho lawyer,
and ho opened another drawer in his desk
and drew out a square shaped, yellow colored
bottle. “Take a swallow of this.”
Philip clutched it eagerly. Ho thought
now ho could understand how a man might
want to drown all pride and sense in drunk¬
enness. He poured tho crude stuff down his
parched throat as if it were water. One
swallow was not enough, nor were two, but
when he set the bottle upon the table at last,
the lawyer resumed:
“And so it would have been good, nine
times out of ten, good enough to make all
parties concerned comfortable. A document
is a document to most people, a seal is a seal.
As a man thinketh, so is he. Parties divorced
by my fiat alone, remarry and raise children,
and aro as happy and clear of conscience as
if they were not committing a sin every
hour of their lives, unless it happens to come
out.”
“This has come out, I suppose, and Lockout
is all agog with it.” Philip’s heart stopped
beating while he waited for his answer.
“No, my dear sir, another mistake; no one
under heaven knows of it but me, and you
now. ” Breton must have taken him for a
fool.
Philip started from his chair like light¬
ning. “Thank God, then Bertha is safe yet."
But Giddings attempted to look very stern.
“Did you suppose I made out that complaint
for nothing? She is rich and beautiful and
proud, no doubt, but the same law hangs
aver her as the rest of us. No one knows of
her crime yet, but before tho sun sets,” the
ittorney rose, and cautiously put the table
between himself and his guest, whoso eyes
seemed to him to gleam dangerously, “but
before the sun sets,” ho continued, watching
the other closely, “an officer with a warrant
will call at your front door.”
Philip lifted his chair high in air, and
brought it down like a trip hammer where
biddings had stood. But the agile attorney
had dodged aside and left the chair to break
into splinters over the table.
Philip lifted his chair high in air.
“Scoundrel! Will you come with handcuffs
uid billets to take away my wife from my
irms for following your lying counsels Is
;hat your law? Does it choose such ministers
is you to break up peaceful homes and shut
rebind liars a woman as innocent as an
ingel *”
Philip was advancing toward him, when
biddings suddenly threw up the window and
eaned out to shout to a policeman. Then bo
looked back to Philip.
“Another step and your wife goes to jail?”
“I won’t touch you.” And Philip folded
its arms across his breast, while the red blood
’orsook his face at the threat. He was in
;his contemptible creature’s power. He might
prind his teeth at him; he must obey him.
“You seem very obtuse, Mr. Breton," ex¬
plained tho lawyer, from a respectful dis-
:anee. “I have no ill will toward Mrs.
Breton, a very modest, and I may add”-
“As sure as there is a God, if you speak of
ler so, I will throw you from the window.
Your secret will die with you then.”
The lawyer smiled unhealthily. “I want
noney, that is all there is to it. You are
•ich—Mrs. Breton—well, well, don’t be an-
rry. In a word, 1 want to be paid to keep
«y secret.”
Philip cast a glance of ineffable contempt

price of life, of honor, of liberty! No money
wild measure it. But what trust could be
rest in tho fidelity of so base a creature a*
this? Tho vampire would suck his blood for-
sver, and forever cry for more; ho would
[earn that his victim would make himself a
beggar to save this woman, and w-ould beg-
jar him without shame. The creature might
not stop with money favors; he might ri>-
juire to ha made a companion; t>’ 'invited
to bis table, and |irmntM t ’ .ds; to
be godfather to his children. - last, in
uiger at some unintended s.; r i.or in some
Irunkon debauch, might bring or call down

jry would have been in vain. Better n
lungcon —no, Bertha must not !> riflood.
Philip turned ou his heel and stop I lief ore
Tis tormentor.
“How much do you want?”
His glassy eye brightened. “Oh. I will not
je too hard just because I have got the whip
land of you. Bay $300, and your secret is
;afe.”
“For how long!” sneered Philip.
“Forever,” answered Giddings, with virtu-
ius decision. “I swear before God 1 will
lever ask another i>enny of you; and your
secret shall die with me.”
Philip had taken out his pocketbook. He
found u $‘>0 bill; then ho drew a check for
$150. The poor lawyer eyed the money with
t great tenderness; liis heart softened at
sight of it, and the love of approbation, that
never dies out of even tho most degraded
soul, stirred in his.
“I aiut so bad a fellow, after all," he said,
is he took up the money, “I know lots of
nen who in my place wouldn't have let you
iff for less than a cool thousand.”
“Your circle of friends must be very
ttleot." Philip was moving tow ard the door.
“To lie sure, to lx? sure," but somehow the
lawyer kept close to him, “I couldn’t help
feeling sorry for you; and then your wife is
inch a nice woman; it never seemed to me
jails were made for such as she"--
“Stop your driveling,” cried Philip, turn¬
ing on him so suddenly that the man fancied
it first he had been struck, “keep your blood
money, but don’t dare to breathe her name,
sven in yo u r prayers.”
The lawyer chuckled to himself when tho
door closed behind hia wealthy client. “I
suppose I have considerable grit."
Then he jiocketed tho bill and scrutinized
the check. “But I was almost too easy with
him. Some fellows, now, would have just
bled him.”
[TO jK CONTINUED. ]
Creamery or Cheese Faetory.
In reply to the question, “Which is the
more profitable for the average farmer
and small stock raiser, the creamery or
the cheese factory?” Michigan Farmer
answers: “As a general rule the cheese
factory will return tho most money to its
patrons, one year with another. But
there are special seasons and conditions
which would change this. The returns
made by cheese factories the past season
run from §33 to $75 per cow—the average
would bo about $50. It must be re¬
membered, however, the cheese factory
only leaves the whey for its patrons, while
the creamery leaves all the milk, a differ¬
ence which, if properly utilized, would
materially change results. Then, again,
the quality of the butter or cheese pro¬
duced would have an important bearing
upon tho returns. If tho products of
either are of a low grade, through the lack
of experience or carelessness ou tho port
of the managers, such factory or creamery
will not be ablo to p >y their patrons ns
much as if they were ..taking a first class
article. It would bo better lo cell your
milk to a well managed creamery than a
poorly managed factory, and vice versa.
Drains and experience arc essential in
either.”
