There was a scowl on bto brow. That did not necessarily mean be was In n Kd temper, but young Bourland bad no other explanation. “Well, young man?" the "boea" remarked. Inquiringly. Young Bourland instantly realised that be had no earthly business there; and. Instead of being worth $16 to the Ann. be was In reality worth not more than •10 and that there were better men than he to he had for that amall sum » also realized that, since he could not come crashing down with his extraordinary demand, he must ask. about something else, and that mighty quick.

Young Bourland left, keeping time to the renewed tapping of the ruler, and abusing himself for a driveling Idiot . The yellow-haired stenographer asked him If he got his raise. The nearest clerk asked If he bad got bis grit op gpough to ask for more money. Bourland took up bis pep with a superb air. considering his distraught staU of mind, and raised bis eyebrows enigmatically. He added np a columalour time* and got a different result each time, the difference running into the thousands. He was wondering what he could do to square S mself with the*old man. All about him e clerks and stenographer* were talking the matter up in all Its bearlogl. He wondered how long be could stand their horseplay. v Young Bourland needed the mousy in all verity, but be grew to dread pay day like torment Then every bit of clownishness In the whole aggregation of office freaks waa turned loose Theyasked to eee hit enormous check Thfcy fissured him that his ease was being considered a director's meetings; that as soon a* the old man had a spare day he would take up the matter In all its renrtfleattons.
