In another hour hla task was com¬ pleted. He received his pay and start¬ ed to cross the street when a bright, glittering object tn the snow attracted hla atfWitton. He secured It, wonder¬ ing If It was some gewgaw, or of real raloe. It was a sunburst pin, set with sparkling white atonea. »--« "
"yance, rouse np, ol^fellowI" hailed his brother, when he reached his room. "We'll have ojjr erand meal, If we never have Another oiie." At the res¬ taurant Vance told of the nnaccns- tomed work that had made the feast poaslble. Then he showed hla brother the pin. -•-.-^-—-^

The dlgnlfled lawyer examined the Jewelry and opened his checkbook. ,
"My client telephoned me late last
night to pay a reward of one hnndred dollara," he said; bnt at that moment the client In question came Into the room—Miss Almn "Dnncan!
Vance became erect. What he read In W» gentle eyes of Alma was pity for his threadbare attire, pain hernu.se she read aright the cause of his no longer calling npon h<»r.
"I cSn accept no reward In return¬ ing what I found to a friend—I hope," he aald proudly.
"To more than a friend," she mn^- mnred. coming to his side and placing her hand on his arm. "Oh, Mr. BIsler I Why have you neglected us?"
