"You're the lad again that was fresh from the schools, knew what he wanted, and went after it. Dick, I've been kind of worried about you since we came here," the veteran went on, in a softer tone of voice. "You ain't been like the old Dick. You ain't had the zip! It's as if you were afraid all the time of losing Sloan's money, and it worried you.

And that last one on the platform of Sloan's Station, waving him a smiling good-by! Courtland had torn himself away at last, with a promise that he would return the minute his work was over, and with the consolation that Bonnie was going to write to him. They had arranged to pursue a course of study together. The future opened up rosily before him.

At Miss Lance's he was Sam. The mentioned D.K.T. conducted the celebrated "Bee-Stings" column on the editorial page of Mr. Sloan's journal, his levity being offset by the sobriety of Mr.

Nathaniel Macon, the Speaker, saying that he thought the desire to enact an effective law was universal, agreed with Early that Sloan's amendment would defeat the purpose.
