failing me when put to the first test.
And it would be such a little thine for
you to do."
"At the price of my self respect
and you call this a little thing. Great
God!"
Nan rose with a sudden gesture of
Impatience.
"You refuso absolutely to consider
this generous offer?"
"Absolutely."
"And you are willing that the wom
an you love shall live in poverty while
her more fortunate sisters laugh and
dance in luxury?"
"The one joy of my life will be to
gratify every reasonable wish of your
body and soul."
"Yet the first reasonable wish I ex-

"Thafs very kind of Mr. Blvcns, I'm

He attempted to draw her Into bis

"Good night."

lours of my life this is one In -which
11 least dreamed of such a thing."
Without a word she turned toward
the stairs.
"Nan!" h called tenderly.
With a sob she throw herself into
his arms.
"Forgivo me, Jim."
"Forgive me, dear, if I've seemed
unreasonable," was the low answer.

His whole makeup, physical and men.
tnl, wan curiously complex, a mixture
of sobriety and greed, piety and cruel
ty, tenderness and indomitable will,
simplicity of tastes with boundless
ambition.
His friendship for Stuart and his def
erence to him personally and socially
dated from their boyhood In North Car
olina, and particularly from an Inci
dent which occurred In their college
days Bivens' father had been a no
torious coward In tho Confederate array
and had at last deserted tho sorvlce
On Bivens' arrival at college, a partic
ularly gren freshman, Stuart had dis
covered a group of his classmates haz.
Ing him. They had forced tho cow
ard's son to mount n box and repent to
the crowd the funny stories about the
"valor" of his father. Tho boy, scared
half ont of his wits, stood ntammer
ing and perspiring and choking with
Hlannie as bo tried to obey his tormen
tors. Stuart protested vigorously, and a
fight ensued in which ho was com
pelled to thrash the ringleader and res
en tho victim by force of arms. From
I tint day Stuart was Bivens' beau
Ideal of a gentleman. He had tolerat
ed rather than enjoyed this friendship.
Bivens shook bands quietly and took
t seat bealdo Stuart's desk.
"Welir said the lawyer at length.
"I've come to make you an important
proposition. Jim. We need another at
torney. The business of tho company
Is Increasing so rapidly our forco can't
bandlo it I need a big man cloao to
me. It yon'tl tako tho place I'll give
youa salary that will ultimately bo as
big 09 the president gets in tho White
Honse. Twenty thousand to start
with."
Stuart looked at his visitor curtosly.
"Why do you want me, Cal? There
oro thousands of lawyers here who
would jump at tho chance. Many of
them are better equipped than I."
"Because I know that you won't lie
to me, you won't swindle or take ad
vaatago of mo"
"Why not?" Stuart asked, with a
Emlia
"Becauso It's not in you."
"I see. You want to capitalize my
character and use mo to ambusto the
other follow?"
"That's one way to look at it yes."
"But that's not tho real reason you
come to me today with this proposi
tion, Is it?"
"Not the only ono. You know my
friendship for you is genuine. lou
know there's not a man In New York
for whom I'd do as much as I will for
you If you'll let me. Isn't that truer'
"I believe It yes. And yet there
must be another reason. You're not
afraid of Woodman and wish to reach
him through me?"
The ghost of a Bmlle flitted around
tbs.shinlng little black eyes.
"Afraid?" bo asked contemptuously.
"I'm not even interested In him. The
old fossil's a joke. Ho thinks he ean
stop tho progress of tho world to at
tend a case of measles in Mott street"
Stuart was silent a moment, watch
ing tho dark masked faco before him
At last he blnrted out:
"Well, Cal, whafs the real reason
you make me this offer today?"
"You can keep a little secret?"
"You ought to know that before mak
ing mo such an offer."
"Yes yos, of course, I know you
will." Blvcns paused and resumed his
cigar. "The fact is Jim I'm in love."
"But wbero do 1 come Into this af
fair r
"Simple enough. Tho Primroses"
"Oh. It's Miss Primroso?"
"Yes Miss Nan. You, see, they think
tho world of you. She said you grew
up together in tho samo town. I was
telling her about my business. I must
have boen bragging about what we
were going to da I was crazy, just
looking at her. Her beauty mad mo
drunk. I told her wo needed a new at
torney. Sbo said you were tho man. 1
told her I'd offer you tho place. Ibe
seemed pleased. Said she knew you
would accept You're got to accept, old
man. I want to make her feel that her
word Is law with mo. Ten me, 0.0 you
think I've got a chance with a girl like
that? You know I've novor gone with
girls much. I'm timid and awkward
I don't know what to do or what to
say. But my money will help, won't
it?"
"Money always helps in this town.
Cal."
"And It means so much to n woman,
too, don't It?"
"Yes. Have you said anything to
Miss Nan yet?"
"Lord, nol Hnvcn't dared. I'm
kinder shying up to the old lady to gut
her on my side. Sho seems awfully
friendly. I think he likes mo. Don't
you think It a good plan to cultivate
her?"
"By all means," was tho dry reply.
"Say, Jim, help me. Take this attor
neyship. It wiU pleaso her and I'll
mako you rich. Come in with me and
you'll nover regret it I know my folks
wcro not your social equals In the old
days down south. But you know as
well as I do that money talks here."
There was no mistaking the genuine
ness of Bivens' feelings. Stuart hud
but to accept tho generous offer made
"Think it over. I'll see you againl"
in good faith, and every cloud between
him and Nan would vanlshl They
could be married at onoo and the fu
ture was secure. All ho had to do was
to keep silent for tho moment as to bis
real relations to Nan and compromise
his senso of honor by accepting the
wages of a man whose principles lie
despised. His decision was made with
out a moment's hesitation.
"I refuso the offer, Cal," ho said
Brmly.
Bivens rose quickly and placed his
smooth band on his friend's.
"I won't tako that answer now
Think It over. I'll see you again." ,
He turned and left tho room before
Stunrt could reply.
The lawyer drew a photograph from
his desk and looked at it, smiling ten
derly. "I wonder. Nan! I wonder!"
Tho smile Blowly faded, and a frown
el eroded his brow. Tho lines of hia
mouth suddenly tightened.
"I'll eettlo it today," ho said with de
cision, as he rose, took his hat and left
for Gramercy park.
It was noon when Stuart reached tho
Primroso house, and Nan was again
out Ho received tho announcement
from her mother with a feeling of rage
he could Ul conceal.
"Whcro is she? I seem never to be
tble to find her at home."
"Now, don't bo absurd, Jim. You
know sho would havo broken any en
gagement to see you had sho known
you were going to call today. I don't
expect her homo until 7."
"Of course, I understand, Mrs. Prim
roso," Stuart said with a light laugh.
"I should havo told ber, but I didn't
know until a few moments ago that 1
was coming."
"Nothing serious has happened, I
hope?" she asked, with carefully mod
ulated sympathy, which said plainly
that sho hoped for tho worst
"No. Jui say that I'll call after
dinner."
"All right Jim, dear," the mother
purred. "I'll seo that she's hero if 1
have to lock tho door."
Stuart strolled out aimlessly and be
gan to ramble without purpose. Some
how today everything on which his
eye rested and every sound that struck
his ear proclaimed tho advent of tho
trust's new power of which Bivens
was tho symbol Blvcns with bis deli
cate, careful little hand, his bulging
forehead, his dark keen eyes. What
chanco bad his old friend Woodman
against such forces?
That Bivens should fall hopelessly
and blindly in lovo with Nan at first
sight was too stupefying to bo grasped
nt onco. She couldn't lovo such a
man and yet bis millions and that
slippery mother wcro a sinister com
bination. By evening bo had thrown off bis
depression and met Nan with some
thing of his old gaycty, to which she
responded with a touch of coquetry.
"Tell me, Jim," sho began with a
smllo of mischief in her eyes, "why
you called at tho rcmarkablo hour of
12 noon today? Am I becoming bo
resistless that work no longer has any
charms? You muBt havo something
very important to say?"
"Yes. I havo. Nan," bo answered
soberly, taking her hand. "I want a
public announcement of our engage
ment In tomorrow morning's papers."
"But why? You know the one con
cession, the only one I have ever made
to my mothers nosturty to yonf in
that our engagement shall bo Kept se
cro until wo are ready to marry. We
must play fair."
"I will. Wo arc ready now."
Nan's volco broke Into n ripple of
laughter
"Oh. aro we? I didn't know It"
"Yes, that's what I came to tell
you," Stuart went on, catching her
spirit of fun and pressing her hand
"I've arranged a Httlo trip to tho conn
try tomorrow, and I'm going to con
vlnco you before we return. Make
tho announcement toulght dear! On
my honor 1 promise to convince yon
tomorrowtliat wo are ready. I've an
argument that never falls an argu
ment no woman can resist"
"Not tonight Jim." was tho laughing
reply.
"Can't you trust mo when I tell you
that I've discovered something today
that makes' It necessary? 1 have seen
Mr. Bivens."
Nan leaped to her feet her face
flushed, her volco ringing with tri
urn ph.
"And you did what I asked you. Oh.
you're n darllngl Why did you tease
me so last night? You accepted bis
offer?"
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, dear,
but I did not"
The girl dropped into her seat with
a sigh, while ho went on:
"Bivens further confided In me the
fact tli. it he Is hopelessly and desper
ately In lovo with you."
A Hash of anger mantled Nan's
cheeks,
"That will do, Jim," sho said In quiet
cold tones. "Your joke has gono far
enough."
"Joke! Do you think I could joke on
such a subject?"
A smile began to play about the cor
ners of the full Hps.
"I never dreamed he was bo easy."
Still smiling dreamily Nan crossed her
bauds over her knees and studied the
pattern in the rug, ignoring the pros
pnee of ber lover.
"Let's not Joke. Nan. It's top 6erl
ous."
"Serious! I fall to see it"
"Can't yon seo that wo must at once
announce our engagement?"
The girl's lips curled with the faint
est suggestion of sarcasm.
"I don't see it nt all. You may be a
good lawyer, but I fail to follow youi
logic.'"
Stuart rose, with a gesture of anger.
"Come to the point. Nan. Let's not
beat the devil around the stump any
longer. You know as well as I do that
you've been trying to flirt with this lit
th insect You know in your heart of
hearts you despise Blvons."
"On the contrary. I vastly admire
him The man who can enter with his
handicap this big. heartless city and
successfully smash tho giants who op
pose him In not an insect I'd rather
cull him a hero. All women admire
success."
"It's disgusting!" .
Nan fixed her dark eyes on Stuart
"How dare you uso such a word to
ine?"
"Because it's true, and you know It"
"True or false, you can't say if she
rose deliberately "you may go now."
"Forgive me. dear." Stuart stam
mered in a queer, muffled voice, "1
tldn't mean to hurt you. I was mad
with jealousy."
"You may go," was the hard, even
answer.
"I can't go'hko this, dearest;" ho
pleaded. "You must forgive me you
mustl Look at me!"
Sho turned slowly, stared him fun In
tho face for a moment without the
quiver of an eyelid, her fino figure
tense, erect, cold, as sho quietly said:
"You aro tiring mo, Jim."
For the first timo ho saw a cold
blooded calculation behind her beauti
ful eyes and felt It In the smllo which
showed tho white teeth the smllo of a
woman who would pause at nothing to
get what she wanted.
A blush of shamo tinged his face as
he tremblingly sold:
"Please, dear, let's not part llko thlsl
I've suffered enough today. You'ro only
teasing me. And I've acted llko a fool.
Say that you forgive mot"
"Our engagement is at an end, Mr.
Stuart," was the quiet answer.
"Nan"-
Beforo he could recover from the
shock or utter a protest she opened the
door and be had passod out Into the
night
CHAPTER IV.
The Forootten Man.
THE next day Stuart called a
messenger and sent a noto to
Nan asking her to forget the
ugly memory of tho night be
fore and fulfill hor promlso to go to
tho country when tho rain ceased. If
It continued to rain ho would call at 8.
Ho told tho boy to wait for an answer.
Tho messenger returned promptly and
banded back bis noto unopened.
Of course sho was blufllng. She
know she had tho whip hand for the
moment and meant to uso It
"WeU, two can play this game," he
muttered. "Wo'll boo who wins!"
Ho turned to his work with grim
resolution.
For two woeks tho battle between
pride and lovo raged In silence. .Each
day ho roso with tho hopo of some
sign from Nan, and each day hope
died in a moro desperate and sullen
despair. At last ho began to question
tho wisdom of his course. Should he
not fight his battlo at closer range?
What If ho wore in reaUty ongaged In
a mortal combat with Blvcns' millions
for Nan's soul and body I Tho Idea
was too hideous to bo thlnkabla
And yet tho moro ho thought of the
scene of their parting, tho moro sick
ening' became tho conviction that her
anger at his use of an ugly word was
merely a subterfuge to break their en
gagement Tha perfidy and, cruelty of
such an act was too. hideous for belief
-yet'lf tu"e" thing" were posstntet
Ono evening he made up bis mind to
go at onco and fight for bis old place
besldo ber on any terms she would
grant Ho seized his hat and opened
tho door. To his amazement Bivens
was leisurely ascending the steps.
Stuart stepped Into the parlor and sat
down with resignation to await his
entrance.
To bis amazement he beard the maid
say:
"This way. sir. Dr. Woodman nska
you to wait for him In tho library."
So Bivens was calling on his arch
enemy by appointment Stunrt replac
ed his lint on tho ruck and returned to
his room, determined to await tho nut
come of this extraordinary visit
Ou Dr. Woodman's entrance Bivens
rose to greet him with unusual anima
tion and unmistakable good will.
When tho doctor grasped tho out
stretched hand a more striking con
trast could scarcely bo Imagined the
ono big. bluff, jovial, sunny, powerful
nnd straight of figure as ho was al
ways straight In speech and manners,
tho financier small and weak in body,
his movements sinuous, flexible, with
eyes that nover looked at the man bo
was talking to, yet always seemed to
be taking In everything In the room.
"Well, Bivens, what can I do for
you? I understand from your note
that tho matter Is important"
"Of tho gravest Importance to us
both, doctor," ho answered, with n
smlla "For a peculiar personal reason
I want us to get together and settle our
differences."
"Are there any differences between
us? You go your way, and I go mine
You run your business to suit yourself,
and I'll do the same. The world's big
enough for us both"
"That's just tho trouble," Bivens In
terrupted. "It Isn't Wo are entering a
now era of combination, merger, co
operation."
"Compulsory co-operation!" the doc
tor laughed.
"It may be so at last" tho llttlo man
said soberly. "Certainly the old Idea
of competition Is played out Wo no
longer believe that business men
should try to cut each other's throats."
"Oh, I seo!" sneered the doctor
"They should get together, corral their
customers and cut their throats."
"You must recognize tho fact that the
drug trado is a business enterprise, not
a charity organization."
"Even so, still I happen to know that
within a stone's throw of my store
swarms a population of a quarter of a
million human beings so poor that only
800 of them over hnvo access to a bath
room. You ask mo to enter with you
Into a criminal conspiracy to suppress
freedom of trado and uso fraud and
violence If necessary to win"
"Fraud and violence?" Blvcns Inter
rupted, smilingly.
"Certainly. What sort of merchandise
doos tho "organizer of modern in
dustry bring to market? Tricks and
tubtorfuges In tho form of printed pa
per called stocks, which represent no
valua From tho moment a financier
onco tastes this blood bo becomes a
beast"
"Come, come, doctor, you must real
ize tho fact that In the drug business
we are bringing order out of chaos
and at last putting tho trado on a pay
ing basts."
"But at what a price! You havo
closed mills Instead of opening them,
thrown out of work thousands, lower
ed tho prion paid for raw material,
bringing rain to Its producers, increas
ed tho prico aharged for your products
to the ruin of tho consumer, nnd sad
dled millions of fictitious debts on the
backs of their children yet unborn.
Tho price of living has been increas
ing steadily with tho organization of
each Industry into a trust Whore will
It endr
Bivens' eyes narrowed to tho merest
points of concentrated light, while an
amused smlla played about them,
"Tho trust Is hero to stay, doctor.
Legislation against it is as absurd and
futile as a movement to 6top tho tides
You cannot mako economy a crime,
progress a misdemeanor, or efilcieuey
a felony! If so, you can- destroy the
truBts."
