of the members each pledged a quar

T HE OFFICE door Opened and Cy
ril Tinkhnm swung around from
his desk with a hopeful, expectant
look he kept in stock to greet his
clients, but the look faded and while
It did not actually turn into one of
disappointment, still it faded. 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. Maybe, that meant
trouble, and maybe that meant a cli
ent—even Roscoe might be embroiled
in legal difficulties.
"SoDieiliins liXflPS.?” asked CjTll.
"You said R," grunted
“That’s why I’m here.”
“You want legal advice," declared
Cyril confidently.
"No I don’t either. I’d have to pay
for that I want sympathy. Beside*

It’s too late for advice.”
“What happened?’’
“I got hooked for $500." *
“Curds or horses?"
"Neither—the stock market."
“Haven't you a comeback?”
“Now, y«fre looking for a. case,"
laughed Roscoe. “Nothing doing. I'm
not a poor loser. ITI take ray licking,
hnt just the same I like to pour my
tale of woe out on somebody. I could
use that $500.
“What was the stock?”
“Secco Copper."
“Never heard of It” declared Cyril
with finality.
“And you never will. It was never
listed."
“What? You mean to tell me. Ros
coe, that you bought un unlisted
stock?"
“Worse. I bought It over the tele
phone from someone I never sa*.”
“Well, of all the fool stunts. X
thought you—" *
“Wait a minute.” Interrupted Ros
coe. rising frpm his seat and crossing
to the window. “I said I wanted sym
pathy, not a lecture. You never lis
tened to this bird who talked to me.
He was an artist and deserved all he
got. Including my $500.”
“Well, no artist would get me ofer
the telephoned ^
“You seem confident. IM like to
get this chap to rig you and make a
het on it. He owes me that much at
least after roping me."
.“Go ahead.'* taunted the lawyer.
• “Roscoe looked out at the dreary
buildings and then he brightened.
“All right. It’s a het. How much?”
“How much* do you'want to make
ItT’ asked the lawyer.
“Make It the I lo«t,"
“You want to lose an even tho«-
•md. I see.”.
Roscoe smiled. “Did you ever hear
that saying about he who smiles
Inst?"
A week or two elapsed before Cyril
Tlnklmm picked up his desk phone to
answer a voice that Immediately In
trigued him. 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.
We need representative men to e»-
dorse It and get It started. You might*
naturally expect that I would call per
sonally with such a proposition rather
than talk to you over the phone; hut
It happens that only by this method
can I give you a demonstration. 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. How much do I pay?"
“You pay $500 to your friend Ros
coe Blake in accordance with the
terms of a bet you recently made. And
now, If you will glance out your win
dow to the story above of the build
ing running at right angles to yours,
you will see where Roscoe has Iweri
watching you make a dam fool of
yourself all over your desk.”
