r eived a fac simile of that letter minu
the postscript, to which he accorded

f'hey arc earth to earth by this time,

"When I sell that ground, sir, I sell

tf you please, sir."
Alter that, the superintendent, who
expected a pistol in fvcry Alabama
pocket, did not care to open the subject
again.

He had piddled across the creek

f"
Joe turned his full blue eyes on the
coloneL
"How about when you die, Colonel
Jay?" be asked iu his most deliberate
speech.
Th- colonel war staggered and
showed it.
"If ! were you," Jo went on, now
looking over th?- water. ' I'd fix that
while I was able. There's a whole acre
there, and there lin't but one end of it
in grave I'd sell it si! uuder a deed

I Colonel Jav rose from liis chair.
"Boy.'' he cried, "you re right! Why

I Then his face fell suddenly.
' But who d be fool enough to buy?"

? 1 if 1 'lou't pay you h hundred dollars for
it in i year s time, you ran take the
j ground hack end all the improvements on

i What fh'' improvement meant, the
whole works soon knew-.
"Jo Tolly's store'" was the talk of the
, place. It was little more thin a shanty,
i but the laborers soon learned that the
shanty had goods nt better .juality and
lower pre es on its shelve- than the com
panv's hmdsome storehouse had on
> theirs.
It ain't very pretty outside, but I '
i ?riod tc have i* good in,'' said Jo, modestly
looking at the well-stocked walls.
1 "I spoci all my money *heie."
'I h moimy referred to was a smail
sum which he ha i gotten by auctioning
i oft thr worn-off roof which covered him,
ind the bit ol land on which he stood.
The re-i of the tract had been sold al|
most to the very d ror step long before,
f There had been no one to interfere in
his reinvestment, his father having performed
t'ue first graceful act in hia
worthless life by stepping out of it at
this opportune trme.
s Don't spend it alt in shoestrings .and
rotk candy. Tolly." the superintendent
had said. "Put it in bank and try to
; keep i.i'i.y to your bank-hook. That's
1 the way."
Yes, s:r," said Jo, submissively, but
s at th? same ihvte it was not his way, nor
j did he follow it.
A* tii s* the Tolly store was only open

e The head clerk?he of the "peeled

fi in by broad daylight and examined
( everything.
He laughed a good deal, and looked
^ at Jo's placid face curiously
"You're bucking against a hig conv

9 have to work like an ox and kick* like a

Jo. smiling his usual rather stupid,

nothing.

".Not much."
' I've got inv store built and paid for

lating aloud. "I've paid for my land,
the business is growing, and "
"You taken week to think it over in,'
said the superintendent, hastily.
1 On that day week Jo entered the
superintendent's office and stood before
1 his desk.
\ "Well. Tolly." sai l ?he superintennd
J eot, "what is it?"
"It's ten thousand dollars," said Jo
. When the superintendent had a little

carefully.

These adjuncts helped to heighten th
ruddy innocence of his appearance as h
entered. He faced the curious eyes o
the waiting board with a disarmin

the superintendent, and the slow motioi
of his Iip3 was almost foolish.

laughter and r oughing.
''On, dear, dear!" he chuckled, wip

"Theu, sir, you think him playing

The, old man went off in another par
