" 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, U- [ ■• 'v. a short way out of it all, a divorce 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 Lockout, S’i there was no trouble; and as publicity, why, will you believe it”-— and 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 it him Then hejjut bis hands behind him Uid walkNl Slowly across Ifie room. 11*8 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 die ruin dreaded so long. His lifelong slav- 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.” Georgia Midland & Golf R li s c hTTdTTle. Taking Effect Sunday, Feb. 19,1888. NO. 50. PASSENGER—SOUTH.
