Such concentration leads tho

cannot understand how a man
an he properly equipped for any pro
'ession without a knowledge of Ureck
tnd I at tin. To the merchant tho chief
?ud of man Is to Isiy cheap and sell
lear.
In the legal profession this species of
nonomaula tends to make the courtroom
a tournament of lawyers. Tho
real object of a court, to do Justice, is
?urled under a rank professionalism
that has grown up like weeds In a
lower garden.
Edward Avery, a brilliant young
nwyer, was especially under the inllur>ll<
e of tilts iirofnsslimutism I In vine

It his duty to convict alike tlie
Imioccnt and the guilty. As s-?on as
Ids duty to the state had ended ami he
became an independent attorney lie
considered it ids duty to secure the
acquittal of any client, whether innocent
or irulltv. His frli'iiils iisimI to re
ninn<trate with lilin on the want of
plasticity of Ills principles, hut without
avail. IIo was Intensely logical
and could give the l>est of reasons for
his deductions, lie forgot that logic
Is hut a machine wlileh will grind out
anything that Is put Into It.
One day while Avery was practicing
on his own account a ina'u whose trial
for burglary was to come off immediately
sent for him and asked him to
make his defense.
"Hut 1 know nothing about the case."
"Don't want y* to know notliiu' aliout
the ease. The more you know about
It the wo'se for me." .
Avery's fancy was tickled at going
into court to conduct a ease he didn't
know anything about. He prided liitnsell'
on bis readiness and resource. lie
would odd another to his already large
number of stories that be was used to
telling his friends illustrative of those
faculties. The necused man had but
$5 to give him for a retainer, but
Avery was n<>t after money. Ilis ols
ject was to have an opportunity to
show what he could do impromptu.

was twhl that they had heard he had
taken a case he didn't know anything
about, and they were curious to see
how ho would handle it. Avery was
pleased. This meant that they were
there to witness a hit of professional
fireworks.
Avery in summer lived in n handsome
suburban residence. In winter
he shut it up. went to the city and lived
in apartments till spring. When the
prisoner was brought into court and
Ihe witnesses were got together, the
counsel fur the defense was surprised

brought out tho fact that the
robbery had been committed in his own

Avery's frlemls were watching hlra

house to write :? life of one of
England's great * olltlca! leaders, !
went to London ami t >ok apartments
wliere 1 woe Id be nearest the reference
libraries 1 should need to consult. One
(lay while 1 was on the street the city
was suddenly enveloped In a fog. It
was so dense that 1 could n >t see uiy
hand held eighteen inches from my
'.'ace. I could hear the siiouts of the
drivers in the street, who at once be
xuu to creep along and even at this
pace came into frequent collision. 1
heard footfalls about me. aud now* and
again some one, doubt!e s more used
to fogs and not to be stopped by them,
brushed ng.vlust inc. S ddenly 1 felt
a light touch on the arm, and a hand
slid down It and grasped mine,
"Show you the way, sir?"'
I caught at the offer eagerly, for
there was confidence hi the man's tone
"Got mo out of this," I said, "and i
will pay you well." Then I pave him
my street and number.
He moved off at a pace that astonish
ed UK*. IIow liu dared proceed at what
on a clear day I would have coasi lered
an ordinary pa it I could not imagine.
Now and again ahove the confusion of
noises 1 heard a tapping as of some
one hitting the pavement with a stick.
Strange to say, we jostled n<? one, ami
110 one jostled us. but I could feel my
guide pull or push me to one side or
the other in order to avoid collision.
"Are you a stranger in I.oudou, sir?"
he asked.
"Yes, an American."
"An American? Then I am conducting
a fellow countryman?"
"Indeed! IIow came you to he a fog
conductor in London?"
"I came here to find a better literary
field than ours in America."
"And got stranded?"
"Yes."

by his misfortunes or through carelessness,
we were nearly knocked down by
some one proceeding more rapidly tlinn
was safe. After this we ceased our
conversation. As to our location. I had
no knowledge of it whatever, but my
guide told me he knew exactly where
we were, in about an hour from our
starting be led me up to a door, which
he opened, and we stood in the ball of
a tenement house.
* ']"!?is is not my lodging house," 1
said sharply, fearful that 1 had heen
tricked.
"Forgive mo," said the man, who 1
could now see was intellectual looking,
hut very shabby; "I live here. I have
brought you to my home to show you
what can happen to an American who
trusts himself on the literary sea of
London." lie opened a door and took
mo into a room, or, rather, two rooms
communicating. In one of them on a
eoueh lay a girl with the (luring eyes
and hectic cheek of a consumptive.
"I would offer you some refreshments,"
said the man, "hut there is >t
a crust of bread here. We have neither
fuel nor liglits, and my poor
daughter, far from having the delica
cio: site needs, lias not even ordinary
food."
I it in taking no credit to myself in
sayh that I relieved their distress. It
would !><? a flinty heart that could refuse
a fellow country man in a strange |
' land. While I was listening to a more ;
1 detailed story of their lives a ray of ;
sunk Jit came streaming In at the win- |
dow. and. taking a memorandum of j
their lo at i a. I I. ft the: i.

get through my day's work before en '
tering upon what would Interfere with 1
that condition of mind necessary to j
mental effort.
Muring the afternoon I went to their
rooms, 'l'liey were alone together, the
father being the sole minister to his
daughter's comfort. The remains of
some delicacies I had sent a few days
before were on a table. The invalid
was resting In a steamer chair, ami I
approached her with a sail heart.
I can never forget the look of grati
tiule that accompanied the girl's-word ;.
Only an exile who had been succored
by one from her native land /onhi have
felt ns she felt. When I took my de
pnrturo 1 asked her father, who spoke I
only by a pressure of the hand, to let :
n e know more of his daughter's con- |
uiirju.
The next day I received word from
him that she was dead. I went ini |
mediately to the old man to cheer hhn
by the announcement that I hn l made
arrangements for his return t ? America.
On leaving him I laid some hank j
notes on the tablo and called his i.t
tentlon to them. He went to the table ;
and felt over it till lie touched them.
