Immediately underneath wm a wllderneaa of roofa Further along *«<* Ihe railway tracks that Yates objected to, and a line of masts and propeller-funnels marked the windings of Buffalo creek, along whose banka arose numerous huge elevators, each marked by some tremendous let ter of the alphabet done In white paint against the somber brown of the big building. Still farther to the west was a more grateful and comforting sight for a hot day. The blue lake, dotted with white sails and an occasional trail of smoke, lay shimmering In the broil ing sun. Over the water, through the distant summer base, there could be seen the dim line of the Canadian shore. “6h you down,*’ cried Yates, putting both hands on the other's shoulders and pushing him Into a chair near the window. Then, placing his finger on the electric button, he added! “What will you drink?” “I’ll take a glass of water, if It can be had without trouble,” said Ron- mnrk. Yates hand dropped from the elec tric button hopelessly to his side, and he looked reproachfully at the professor. “Great heavens!” he cried; “have something mild. Don’t go rashly In for Buffalo water before you realize what It Is made of. Work up to it grad ually. Try a sherry cobbler or a milk shake as a starter.” "Thank yon, no. A glass of water will do very well for me. Order what yon like for yourself." “Thanks. I can be depended on for doing that." He pnshed the button, when the t»y appeared, said: np an iced cobbler, and charge It to trof. Benmark, No. 518. Bring also a pitcher of loe water for Yates, No. 6*0. There,’’ he con tinued gleefully, “I’m going to have all the drinks, except the ice- water, charged to you. I’ll pay the |blll, but I’ll keep the account to hold over your heed In the future. Prof. StlUson Renmark, Dr. to Metropolitan Grand—one sherry cobbler—one gin •ling—one whisky cocktail, and so on. Now, then, Stilly, lot’s talk business. You’re not married, I take It, or yon iwouldn’t have responded to my Invita tion so promptly.” The professor shook his head. “Neither am L Yon ■never had the courage to propose to a girl, and I never had the time.” j "Look of self-conceit was not your falling In the old days, Richard.” said Benmark, quietly. Yates laughed. "Well, It didn’t hold me back any, to my knowledge. Now, I’ll tell yon how I’ve got along sinoo we attended Old Scragmore'a academy together fif teen yean ago. How time does fly! When I left 1 tried teaching for one abort month. I had some theories on the education of our youth which did j not seem to chime In with the preju- 'dices the school trustees had already formed on the subject.” The professor was at once all atten- | Mon. Touch a man on his business and he generally responds by being tar 'torosted. "And what were your theories?” he asked. j “Well, I thought a teacher should look after the physical as well as the menial welfare of his pupils. It did not seem to me that his duty to those under hie charge ended with mere book learning.” "I quite agree with you," said the professor, cordially. “Thaska. Well, the trustees didn’t. I joined the boys at their games, hoping my example would have an Influence on their conduct on the playground as well aa In the schoolroom. We got np a rattling good cricket olub. You may not remember that I stood rather bet ter at cricket in the academy than I did In mathematics or grammar. By handicapping me with several poor players and having the best players fmpwig the boys In opposition, we made a pretty evenly matched team at school section No. 1*. One day at noon we began a game. The grounds were In excellent condition, and the opposition boys were at their best. My side was getting the worst of It I was very much Interested, and when ono o'clock came I thought It a pity to call school and spoil so good and Interesting a con test The boys were unanimously of the same opinion. The girls were hap py picnicking under the trees So we played cricket all the afternoon.’ ”1 think that was carrying your theory a little too far,” said the profes sor, dubiously. "Just 016 thought when they oamo to hear of It So they dismissed me; and I think my leaving was the only case on record where the pupils genuinely mourned a teacher's departure. I shook the dust of Canada from my feet, and have never regretted it I tramped to Buffalo, shaking the dust off my feet at every step. Hello! here's your drinks at last Stilly. I had forgotten about them—an unusual thing wltfc me- That'* all right bo; charge H to room 518. Ah I that h! the spot on a hot day. Well, where waa I?

Now you’ve listened with your customary patience In order to give my self-esteem, as you called it, full sway. I am grateful. I will re ciprocate. How about yourself?” The professor spoke slowly. “I have had no such adventurous career,” he began. “I have not shaken Canadian k^r^^Tau^er^qn 1 ^ ^^^sorde,^ Srently fe ■ '' Th " re OUfrht to ^ aomc n,oe P !ace ® ment he^ugM ^ ^ ^ | ^ th« lake shore.” *a>u V _ it fa j !

We shall have to be near a farmhouse, so that we can get fresh butter, milk and eggs. This, of course, is a disad vantage; but I shall try to get near some one who has never even heard of New York.” “You may find that somewhat diffi cult. ’’ “Oh, I don’t know. I havo great hopes of the lack of intelligence in the Canadians.” “Often the narrowest.” said the pro fessor, slowly, “arc those who think themselves the most cosmopolitan.” Right you are!” cried Yates, skim- that, only os an indication of his mean ness. He wont on to say that of the members of our class you—von!—were the only one who had reflected credit on it. That was the Insult. The idea of his making snch a statement, when I had told him I was on the Now York Argus! Credit to the class Indeed! I wonder If he ever heard of Brown, after he was expelled? You know, of course. No? Well, Brown by his own exer tions became president of the Alum bank In New York, wrecked It, and got off to Canada with a clear half million. Yes, sir. I saw him In Quebec not six months ago. Keeps the finest span and carriage In the city, and lives In a pal- ^ ace. Could buy out old' Scragmore a ming lightly over the remark and see- dust from my feet, and havo not made any great success. I have simply plod- thousand times and never feel it. Most liberal contributor to the cause of edu cation that there is In Canada. Ho says education made him, and he’s not a man to go back on education. And yet Scragmore has the cheek to say that you were the only man In the class who reflects credit on it!” The professor smiled quietly, as the excited journalist took a cooling sip of the cobbler. “You see, Yates, people’s opinions differ. A man like Brown may not be Principal Scragmore’s ideal. The prin cipal may be local In his Ideals of a suc cessful man or of one who reflects credit on his teaching.” “Local? You bet he’s local. Too darned local for me. It would do that man good to live In New York for a year. But I'm going to get even with nim. I’m going to write him up. IT1 j give Mm a column and a half, f ee If I don’t.

You remember you were very Indignant at the time, and—” “Of course I was—and am still, for that matter. It was an outrage.” “I thought It was proved that you helped to put the pony in the princi pal’s room.” “Oh, certainly. That! Of course. But what I detested was the way the principal worked the thing. He allowed that villain Spink to turn evidence against us, and Spink stated I origi nated the affair, whereas I could claim no such honor. It was Spink’s own project, which I fell In with, as 1 did with every disreputable thing pro posed. Of course the principal believed nt once that I was the chief criminal. Do you happen to know If Spink has been hanged yet?” I believe he la n very reputable business-man In Montreal, and much respected." * “I might have suspected that Well, /era keep your eye on the respected *pink. If he doesn't fall some day and make a lot of money, I'm a Dutchman. But go on. This Is digression. By the way, just push that electric button. You’re nearest, and it Is too hot to move. Thanks After I was expelled—?” “After your departure, I took a diplo ma, and for a year or two taught a class In the academy. Then, as I studied during my spare time, I got a chance aa master of a grammar school near Toronto, cMefly, aa I think, through the recommendation of Principal Scrag more. 1 had my degree by this time. Then—" There waa a gentle tap at the door. “Come In,” shouted Yates. “Oh, It's you. Just bring up another cooling cobbler, will you, and charge It as be fore to Prof. Renmark, room 518.—Yes; and then—?” "And then there came the opening In University college, Toronto. I had the good fortune to be appointed. There I am still, and there I suppose I shall stay. I know very few people, and am better acquainted with books than with men. Those whom I have the privi lege of knowing are mostly studious persons who have made or will make their mark in the world of learning. I have not had your advantage of meet ing statesmen who guide the destinies of a great empire.” “No, you always were lucky, Stilly. My experience Is that the chaps who do the guiding are more anxious about “Good boy! Well, I’ll tell you how It la. I want rest and quiet and the woods for a week or two. This is how It happened: I have been steadily at the grindstone, except for awhile In the hospital, and that, you will admit, la not much of a vacation.

He la usually short lug nothing applicable to his ca-« In It “Well, I’ve laid In about half a ton, more or less, of tobacco, and have bought an empty jug.” “An empty one?" “Yes. Among the few things worth having that the Canadians possess, is good whisky. Besides the empty jug will save trouble at the custom house. I don’t suppose Canadian r>e Is as good as the Kentucky article, but you and I will have to scrub along on It for awhile. And talking of jugs, just press the button once again.” The professor did so, saying: “The doctor made no remark, I sup pose. about drinking less or smoking less, did he?" “In my c se? Well, come to think of it, there was some conversation In that direction. Don't remember at the m in:c nt just what It amounted to; but all physicians have their little fads, you know. It doesn't do to humor them too much. Ah, boy, there you are again. Well, the professor wants another drink. Make It a gin fiz this time, and put plenty of Ice lu It; but don’t neglect the gin on that account. Certainly: charge It jo room 518.” [TO bb continukd.J Brokers anOeal Estate Agents.

So old Scragmore’s been your friend, has her’ “He haa, Indeed." "Well, he Insulted me only the other day." “You astonish me. I cannot Imagine •o gentlemanly and scholarly a man aa Principal Scragmore Insulting any* body.” “Oh, you don't know him as I do. It was like this. I wanted to find out where you were, for reasons that I shall state hereafter. I cudgeled my brains, and then thought of old Scrag. I wrote him and Inclosed a stamped and addressed envelope, as all unsought contributors should da Ho answered —but I have his reply somewhere. You shall read It for yourself." Yates pulled from his Inside pocket a Of letters which he hurriedly ed over, commenting In a low thought I an- i ttmi He’s content to let well enough alone every time. Then there Is always some body who wants to get away on press ing business—grandmother’s funeral and that sort of thing—so If a fellow is content to work right along his chief Is quite content to let him. That’s the way affairs have gone for years with me. The other week I went over to Washington to interview a senator on the political prospects. I tell you what it is. Stilly, without bragging, there are some big men In the states whom no one but me can Interview. And yet old Scrag says I’m no credit to hie elassl Why, last year my political pre dictions were telegraphed all over this country, and have since appeared in the European press. No credit! By Jove, I would like to have old Scrag In a twenty-four-foot ring with thin gloves on for about ton minutes'” “I doubt If he would shine under those circumstances. But never mind him. He spoke, for once, without due reflection, and with perhaps an exag gerated remembrance of your school- day offenses What happened when you went to Washington?" "A strange thing happened. When I was admitted to the senator’s library I saw another fellow, whom I thought I knew, sitting there. I said to the sen ator: T will come when yon are alone.’ The senator looked np in surprise, and said: 'I am alone.’ I didn’t say any thing, but went on with my Interview, and the other fellow took notes all the time. I didn't like this, but said noth- for the senator is not a man to 'end, and It Is by not offending these fellows that I can get the Information I do. Well, the other fellow came ont with me, and as I looked at him I saw that he was myself. This did not strike me aa strange at the time, but I argued with him all the way to New York and tried to show Mm that he wasn’t treating me fairly. I wrote iip the interview with the other fellow in- ; terfering all the while, so I compro- : mlsed, and half the time put in what he , suggested and half the time what I wanted in myself. When the political editor went over the stuff ho looked alarmed. I told him frankly Just how I had been Interfered with, and ho looked none the less alarmed when I had finished. He sent at once for a doctor. The doctor metaphorically took me apart, and then said to my chief; ‘This man Is simply worked to death. He must have a vacation,^nd a real one, with absolutely nothing to think of, or he Is going to go to pieces, and that with a suddenness that will surprise everybody.’ The chief, to my sutonislunent. consented without a murmur, and even upbraided me for not going away sooner. Then the doc tor said to me: ‘Yon get. some com panion—some man with no brains, if possible, who will not discuss politics, who has no opinion on anything that any sane man would care to talk about, who couldn't say a bright thing If he tried for a year. Get such a man to S > off to the woods somewhere. Up In sine or In Can ida. As far away from post offices and telegraph offices as pos sible. And, by the way, don’t leave your address at the Argus offlco.' Thus It happened. Stilly, when he described this man so graphically, I at once thought of yon.” “I am deeply gratified, I am sure," said the professor, with the ghost of a smile, “to be so promptly remembered in such a connection, and If I can be of any servle- to yon I shall be very glad. I take It, then, that you have no inten tion of stopping In Buffalo?" “You bet I haven’t.
