He was looking into the countenance of his friend, lloscoe Blake. Those features were usually illu minated by a smile, but Roscoe was not smiling now.

There was something magnetic about the tone, some Inde finable personality. "Mr. Tinkham? Mr. Barker speak ing on the .recommendations of some very prominent people who have se lected you as an enterprising young lawyer to interest In a new invention.

This invention Is something that will rev olutionize the telephone industry as you will readily understand when I tell yod that while I have been talk ing to you. you have been sorihhllng on a red blotter with a yellow [tendl.” v Cyril gasped and snapped his head away from the mouth-piece, tvhlch he Insjiected in amazement. “I don't wonder you sprang away,” continued the voice, luilghing pleas antly. “And now let's have a further demonstration. Do something and I’ll tell you what it is. You have just put jbfr pencil in your right fluid vest pocket—now you place It in your left—you shifted the receiver to your right ear—you are now standing up — now you are at the desk — you are dancing — now you are waving your arms. Does that satisfy you, Mr. Tinkham?” “It certainly doe*,” beamed the cocky lawyer. "And you want me to take an interest In It?” ; “Not exactly. We just want"you to vouch for it in our advertisements.” “But don’t I get a chance to come in on It,” protested the lawyer. “Well," hesitated the voice •"Th* issue is small and about taken up. I might be able to procure you a thou sand shares. Would you take that?” “Certainly.
