It so happened tliat as they wont in Colonel Pnyton was just coming out. lie stopped to speak to Mr. Mitcliel. but kept his eyes on Lilian, who modestly withdrew and stood aside. "Well, Mitcliel," said the colonel, "how do you prosper with your line notions about justice, eh? Found any one to agree with you yet?" "I have not been looking for an advocate of my views," said Mr. Mitcliel. "I have been 'slumming,' colonel." "Slumming, eh? 1 hope you haven't a very sharp nose. Hut, I say, you did not pick that up in the slums?" he added as he cfist an admiring glance at Lilian. "That Is exactly where I found her." so Hi Mr. Mitcliel. "I see you are not too old to notice a pretty face." "Too old? Well, I should say not, sir! Hut what you tell me seems marvelous. Found her in the slums, eh? Well, well: What a pretty llower to be growing among weeds!" j "True, colonel, but then, you know, the wind may waft the seed from the choicest blossom into the foulest soil, and yet these seeds may take root and grow, and blossoms may come again." "No doubt. Hut it's a very careless gardener who allows good seeds to blow away." "True. And what shall we say of the gardener who willfully easts lils choicest seeds to the winds?" "Such a man would be an ass? or worse." "Or worse," agreed Mr. Mltehel. "Well added, colonel?or worse! Much worse In this case." "In this cnse? What do you mean?" "I mean that this Is the blossom from a seed cast away by the gardenia er who Is worse than an ass, as you have put It." "Don't talk to me In riddles, man," said the colonel testily. "Speak plainly." "I will do so. She Is a little Bowery singer, the daughter of unknown parents, who cast her adrift when an Infant." "A foundling?" "Probably; roared in the tenements of the east side." "You don't say so? Isn't It awful, the amount of depravity that exists in this world? Isn't It marvelous that a parent would abandon his own flesh aud blood?" "I can Cud no excuse for sucli a bourse," said Mr. Mltehel, "though there might be some palliation." "Kxcuse? palliation! Rubbish! You don't know what you are saying." "Listen to me, colonel. Ilere is a girl, herself abandoned by her parents. Let us suppose a case, one that is far from Improbable. She has this heritage? what we may call sin atrophied bump of phtloprogciiltl'. euess. She is reared in that maelstrom of vice and crime, the great east side. Hut to return to our simile. IIow would you expect this tender flower, tlds hothouse plant, to thrive lu that environment and retain Its purity and fragrance?

Soon n child is boru, n child whose father .fails to acknowledge It. 8upi>ose that tlie mother, finding it n burden, should abandon tlie* child. Is the fault entirely hers, or must the responsibility be shared by those from whom she inherited the lack of motherly love?" "Look here, Mr. Mitchcl, you must go elsewhere with your psychological or physiological problem, whichever this is. I have no time for speculations of that nature. I am too practical. Hut .? I hope tills girl's story Is not"? "Oh. I am only giving you a bypo^ thetleal case!" hastily interjected Mr. * Mitchcl. "Hut I say, colonel, you can do me n favor. Will you?" "What Is it?"

"When you brought this girl here, did you think she was tlie baby's mother?" asked Colonel Payton. ?> *1 thought so," said Mr. Mitehel, "but I was not sure. Slie denied it. Therefore I brought the mother and uV child together, relying upon the iustincts of nature to reveal tlie truth. There Is yet much to be explained, however." "Much to .be explained!" cried the colonel. "I should say so. She will / have to explain why she abandoned the child, and she must explain it be- j fore a jury too." "Before a jury? What do you mean?" j "I mean that I will have her detained I here until tlie authorities are informed of what has taken place. Then she must go to prison.
