PART I.
As I passed the vicarage I thought
that it looked a likely place. 1 walked
on a few yards, and then. It seemed to
me a pity not to xee If the place was
as Kood as It looked. So I went back
and linked at the back door if they could
frive me u Job of .work.-
The kitchen maid said there was no
work fot me, and she was not inclined
to talk. Hut she fetched me some bread
and cheese, and 1 had a chance to look
round; 1 niarked the scullery window;
It was out of sight of the road, fastened
with the usual simple catch, with no
l.ars or shutter!). A regular Invitation
u window like that is. It seemed to
me a one-man Job, and Just us good
that night us any other night.
So that night, by half-past ten, I was
In the shrubbery of the vicarage gar
den, smoking' my pipe and watching
the house. There was only one light;
it was In thu study windows downstairs.
At eleven o'clock that light went out
and another appeared in the upstairs
window. "That's all right." I said to
myself. "Parson's finished writing his
sermon and gone to bed." When
the whole house was dark 1 went round

HAD
A CHANCE
AROUND.
TO LOOK
It once or twice, Just to see how things
lay. I couldn't mid anything better than
the scullery window, but that wus quite
Ifood enough. 1 was Impatient to be
atn, but I did not consider it safe to
start work until half-past twelve. The
window grave me more trouble than I
had expected; the catch was very stiff,
and 1 had nothing but my pncketknife
to force it buck with. However. I got
It back at last and opened the window
very slowly, an Inch at a time, making
no noise. Then 1 got in.
J no sooner got my feet down on
the scullery lloor than 1 was knocked
headlong- and found a thli teen-stone
weight on my chest. I asked It, speak
ing" under difficulties, to get off again
I was a bit dazed, for I hail come down
hard and bumped my head, but I saw
the only thing to do was to sham drunk,
and 1 spoke thickly. 1 undid one end of
my collar, pulled my hair over mv fore
head, hung- my lower lip, and piit on a
bleary stare. By the time that man
had got off my cVst, struck a match
on the heel of his boot, and lit the
candle behind 111 in. I looked a complete
drunk if ever any man did.
1 could see now that, the man who had
knocked me over was Rev. William
Lake himself. And the more I looked at
him the more 1 felt sorry that 1 had
ever come.
"Well." he said, "you dirty little
a-lnger-headed, two-penny-half-penny
scoundrel, what are you doing here?"
1 hiccoughed and answered: "Thor
thlsh was my huush nummer twenny
Willetsh Ten-Ian. Ain't this i-i'V"
"ThSjt won't do," he said; " heard
you round the house an hour ago or I
shouldn't have been here waiting for
you.- Hesides. drunken men don't open
windows that way. You're not drunk.
J Hop It."
I thought about It fur n moment and
saw that there was a good deal in what
he said. So 1 dropped it. I fastened
my collar again, sat up, and pulled oft'
my cap.
"Very well," I said, "ih?n what's the
move now?"
1 suppose he saw my hand slipping
round for he said quickly. "Have you
any weapons?"
"liless you, no! I only"
Before I could finish he was sit
ting on me again. I tried a smash at
him, but he caught my wrist, and
nigh broke it. After tliut 1 didn't try
again. It wasn't only that lie was big
Her, heavier and stronger than most
men; he was quick as light and you
could never tell from his eye what he
was going to do next. lie went all
over me carefully, and took my knife
and 'the- shooter and my Jemmy. Then
I saw that the game was up.
"What a silly little liar you are!" he
said.
As I have said. I saw that it was all
up, and I couldn't make it any worse.
1 was a good deal disappointed, and I
had been roughly handled, and alto
gether 1 waa not in the sweetest tem
per. So I spoke out. I said that I did
not want any (adjective omitted)
preaching from a (substantive omit
ted) like himself. All I asked was what
his (adjective omitted) move was.
"If you swear any more." he said, "I
rliall be compelled to cause you con
siderable physical pain."
I had a bumped head and a barked
elbow." I was fairly copped, and my
temper got the better of me again. It
was foolish of nit', but 1 may have
thought that he, being a parson, would
not actually strike nie. Anyhow, I
aald that if he wanted to know what he
wus 1 could tell him. 1 did tell him in
a few words. I omit the words.
Never in my life have I had such a
thrashing as I got then. He hit only
with the open hand; If he'd have tised
his fists he'd have killed me. There
wus no getting away from him, and no
giving him unythliig back. It' was
ding-dong all over my face and head
until I dropped in a heap, bleeding like
a pig and nearly sick. It finished me.
"You're boss." 1 said. "You can give
your orders I only wanted to see."

He stood there smiling, as If he had
rather enjoyed himself.
"Pick up your boots," he said, "and
put them on."
On entering the window I had my
boots hanging round my neck by the
laces; they had fallen off when he first
knocked me over. While I was putting
them on he turned back his cuffs and
washed his hands at the sink. When he
had finished he pointed to the sink.
, "There you are," he said. "You can
repair damages."
1 was bleeding from my nose.and from
a cut lip, but the coltl water soon stopped
that. When I hod finished he asked me
if 1 was ull right.
"Pretty well," I said. "I'm a bit
shaky on the legs that's ull. You
gave me a good doing."
"Take a candle, then, and go In front
of me Into the study. I expect you know
the wuv." Of course 1 did. Show nie the
outside of any house, and the inside is
no puzzle to nie.
He nicked up my knife, the revolver,
and the small Jemmy, and followed me
Into the study. He lit the lamp, gave me
the knife back again, and locked the
revolver and the jemmy away In a
drawer.
"And now," he Bald, "won't you sit
down?" He spoke to me as If I were a
lady visitor. I sat down, and he. taking
a chair opposite me, began to till a little
old clay pi fie. "
"I reully can't make this out." he said,
"you're so small and clumsy. You've
got a nasty temper, but you're not very
plucky. What on earth made you think
of trying to be a burglar?"
"I don't know." 1 said. "But there's
one thing I'd like to ask you, and no
disrespect. What made you think of
being a parson a man of your build
and strength, and so handy with your
fists? 1 ask pardon, but you might
have done better."
He didn't seem to take that as cheek
at all. For a moment he didn't answer,
and sat sucking his little clay. Then he
sighed and said: "I have sometimes
thought so myself. Hut it is quite.
certain that you might have done bet
ter. How did you come to this?"
"I had-no' bringing up, , and I read
penny trashy novels."
He tupped his foot Impatiently on the
carpet : "Well, well go on."
"Then 1 was led away by bad com
panions and took a drink and gam
bling, and not knowing what it was to
have a mother's tender"
He got up and interrupted me. "Now
drop all that," he said. "I want facts;
tell me the story of your life. How did
you come to this?"
PART II.
Partly from admiring the man. and
partly from whim. 1 did tell him the
story, and told him the plain truth, too,
It was pretty strong, but I left nothing
out. and he never stopped me. When 1
had finished he thanked nie.
"Then," he said, "coming of descent
people, and with a fair education and a
good chance In life, you none the less
have been from your earliest boyhood
just about as bad as you are 'now
bad all through always bad."
"That is about the mark,"I answered.
Then I thought to myself that it would
be one of two things either he would
take me out ami hand me over to the
police, or else he would ask me to Join
him In prayer. I expected the latter.
He did neither. He walked upTml
down the room, with his hands behind
him, saying to himself: "And 1 preach
sermons sermons sermons!" Sud

way of his. "You've kept nie up very
late." he said, " and in consequence I've
become uncommonly hungry. What
do you say? Will you come and help
me to get some supper? Very well,
then, come quietly. I don't want to
wake the rest of the house."
So I went with him to the kitchen
and carried things from there into
the sUidy. He iuld the table cleun
white cloth, silver forks, and every
thing of the best. There was a cold
game-pie, a ripe stilton, and a bottle of
Burgundy. never hud a better supper
in my life. He passed me anything I
wanted and filled my glass. For the
life of me, I couldn't help grinning.
"Now then," he said, "Whut's amus
ing you?"
"1 wus only thinking, that's all. It
seems a queer way for a parson like
you to treat a chap like me. I come
here to crack this crib, you fairly get
me, und no word ubout the police
never u word. First you give me a
thrashing and then you give nie sup
per." "Well,' you can't deny that you
wanted both of them badly. Whut
else should a . parson have done?
What diil you expect tell me honestly."
"Sieakitig honestly. I expected more
talk more parson talk, you know."
"And what do you mean by that?"
"Why the sort of thing I was always
hearing when I wus a boy ubout the
sinfulness of It, und repenting, and
hell." .
"Do you think It would do you any
good if 1 talked like that?"
"Well, no."
"Nor do I." He changed the subject
then, and told me there was a good
chance for work at Futon mills. They
were short-handed there for the mo
ment, and he-could give me a line to
the foreman. "You tell me," he said,
"that you are Interested in machines,
and know a little about them; that
might help you. If you can do any
thing at all special anything, for in
stance in the way of repairs, when
some trifle goes wrong they'll soon
find it out. Smart men that go there
stop and work their way up. It's the
rarest thing for them to be short-handedin
fact, you're in luck."
I thanked him, of course. I had
meant if ae let me off to go on to Kn
ton. But I had no Intention of going
near the mills or getting regular work
of any kind. However. I did not want
to annoy him by telling him that I
preferred my own way of living, espe
cially as he seemed so pleased with his
Idea about the mills. After supper
he sat down and wrote a line or two to
the foreman, whom he seemed to know
well. As he was writing it the clock
struck three. "You will start at once,"
he said, "so as to be there early. You
won't be able to work that day, after
being up all night, but you can begin
I
work the next day. It's- Important that
you should apply early before every
thing's tilled up."
1 thanked him again, and asked him
to put me on the right roud. What I
wanted was to get him out into the
dark. He came out of the house with
me, showed me which turn to take,
and said good-by.
"Come and see me again, I have much
to say to you when the right time
comes." I thanked him and said good
by. I walked until I heard his front door
shut, and then I ran Just about as hard
as 1 could go. I passed one policeman,
and he tried to stop me, but I dodged
him und got away. 1 was on the out
skirts of the village then, and once
past him I had a lonely country road
and nothing to fear.
You see, while I was on my back
I had noticed the parson's watch chain.
I took care not to look at It again, but
kept it in my memory. While he was
saying good-bye to me In the dark I
got an easy c hance. The parson's gold

watch and chain were In my trousers
pocket, and he never had the least no
tion when I took them. My notion wus
now to get on to Enton about five, ami
take a workingman's train on to Wa
terloo. I chuckled to myself. He'd called me
a ginger-headed scoundrel, stopped me
swearing, spoiled my little game, and
given me a thrashing, but 1 had the
better of him In the end. There was his
watch and chain in my pocket, and In
less than four hours 1 should lie hand
ing them over to ike and getting three
or four sovereigns for them.
As I walked ulong It gradually began
to grow light, and somehow or other I
lost my spirits. I stopped chuckling;
the more I thought about the neat way
that I hud scored off thnt, parson the
less I felt inclined to laugh about that
or anything else. I got angry about
nothing. It may seem queer, but I
was angry with the parson for having
stood out there in the dark, close
against me, Bnd given me my chance.
I called him all the names I could lay
my tongue to for his foolishness. 1 was
just as angry with myself, though for
no sensible reason. Then I began to
get nervous and took fancies, thought I
heard steps coming after me, and im
agined there was a policeman waiting
to catch me behind every btg tree I
passed. 1 didn't enjoy that walk. 1
wished to heaven that liaison had tak
en me out by the scruff of my neck and
handed me over to the police when he
first caught nie, though I don't know
why I wished It. '.'Who wants his
blooming ticker?" I said out loud, pull
ing it out of my pocket. "Strike me If
1 won't pitch it over the hedge and be
done with It!"
But 1 didn't. I pulled myself to
gether, and argued with myself. "If
you can afford to throw money away."
1 sab! to myself, "that's the nrst I've
heurd of It. You just plug on until you
get to Enton Stution, und don't give
way to such silliness." It's easier to
argue with yourself than It Is to make
yourself see the force of It. 1 went on,
but I couldn't stop thinking. I wished
I had never come near the vicarage. I
wished 1 had got my shooter out and
finished the parson on sight. I wished
f had never been born, I wlsned I was
dead. The further I went the more
down-hearted 1 got. 1 had never felt
anything like It before.
At last 1 had done my nine miles and
stood outside Enton Station. I stood
there for about a minute, and then I
made up my mind. "1 chuck this," I
said, "and take that forsaken ticker
back to the parson again."
I was as tired as a dog when I got to
the station; but as soon as 1 had made
up my mind that seemed to pass off. 1
made mv wuy buck u good deal quicker
than I had come. The sun shone and
the birds sang, and you could see we
were In for a rare tine day. I met some
worktngmen on the road, and passed a
good morning to them. 1 could have
said good morning to the very police
man that I had dodged a few hours be
fore, and not been afraid of him. I
felt afraid of nothing, and up to fight
ing any man of my own weight.
As I drew near the vicarage I didn't
feel quite so chirpy. 1 had a mind to
go through with It. They told me the
vicar had breakfasted early and was
In his study, and would see me there.
The vicar was standing up when I
went In, with his hands in his breeches
pockets, and that curious smile on his
face. He looked a fine man.
"Good morning," he said, "You're
soon back."
I put the watch and chain on the
table. "I I I've done a damned dirty
trick, and I'm ashamed of myself."
"Ah!" he said; "this Is good. This
Is a start."
He went on with what I suppose

Her Health.
Frm the Hrrald, TUumille, Pa.
Learning that the' daughter of Un. J. J,
Moore, who lives near TitusTille, had been
suffering with ills peculiar to her sex for a
number of years and had been fully restored
to health, a reporter of the Hrrald waa de
tailed to investigate the ease.
The reporter accordingly drove out to the
Moore residence and on inquiring regarding
her daughter's health, Mrs. Moore said :
"Yes, it is true, mv daughter who is now
eighteen years old has been in poor health
from childhood. About a year ago her men
ses begun to come but were very irregular
and finally stopped altogether for three or
four months.
later, in March of this year, she became
very sick ; her color all left ber and she was
as pale as a ghost. tSlie waa taken wi'Jt a
cough, with bleeding of the nose and severe
hemorrhages. Hhe became so weak that she
could not leave her bed. Her cough became
more and more aggravated and it looked as if

were lout.
" My son one day chanced to pick up a

with the remark, ' here is something for pale
people.'

of Titusville, and after she had used them
only three days we noticed a niarked im

the contents of two or three boxes, she had
entirely recovered, and is now the picture of
health.
" Her cough has entirely left her, she has
rosy cheeks and her menses now are regular,
aud she is a stout, healthy girl and all from
the use of Dr. Williams' Piuk Pills for Pale
People.
"I do not hesitate in giving Pink Pills the
entire credit, ana have frequently recom

report equally as good results.
