A LITTLE DOG'S
DAY
By H. LOUIS RAYBOLD
<©. lav l,y Mi
N«w*i,«p0i SvniJJCat* t
In a tiny village tucked away among
green hill* lute one afternoon u big,
high-powered cur came honking along
the smooth »tute road. II« sole occu
pant nn elderly man who hud evi
dently walked with prosperity all his
lire.
"Thl* must he ;he pince," he decid
ed, as bl* glance fell upon a tidy, com
fortable looking farmhouse under the
tree*.
Alighting at the gate he made hi*
way to I he front porch where sut an
old man in his shirt-sleeves.
"I'm a Net, York lumber dealer. I
came up to look uvrr some wood-lots
In the neighborhood," he explained.
"Expect to tie here two or three dnvs._
I was told back yonder that maybe
yon would take i ure of me. now that
the only hotel In the place la closed
for repair«."
Farmer Grimes got to Ills feet with
many rheumatic grunts.
"Gués* we can put you up for thnt
long," lie i-eplled. "I'll see what Betty
says."
He disappeared for a moment with
in the house, then called out from the
doorway: "You Jest drive jour car
'round to the ham."
Colonel Burton obeyed with n feel
ing of extreme satisfaction. There
was a sweet, wholesome atmosphere
uhout the place t:int made It far p:e
ferahle to imy country hotel he had
ever known.
When he entered the house, Betty,
a pretty, slender girl In blue gingham,
met him with a shy and charming
smile. She had eyes bluer than her
pretty gown—the trustful look of one
unacquainted with guile. The city
man thought tie Imd never seen a girl
so Innocent and sweet.
Presently, as a firm step crossed the
kitchen floor, she turned quickly, her
whole face transformed by the ex
pression that went over It. Interest
ed and curious. Colonel Burton
glanced through the half-open door,
barely stilling nn exclamation as he
did so. It was no stranger upon whom
his startled gaze rested—this broad
shouldered young man approaching
with a confident trend.
How strangely things come about!
So this was where Tom Dudley had
been hiding for a year and a half.
The colonel's brow darkened and his
hands clinched. All these months he
had hoped for n meeting like this.
The fellow's status In the household
was easily guessed—the hired man !
But of course these good people had
no suspicion that they were harbor
ing n thief! "Of nil houses In this
vlllnge. It Is curious thnt I should
have been directed to this one." the
colonel thought gloatingly.
Meanwhile Tom Dudley hnd come
to n sudden halt Just across the
threshold. Ills face went paper-white
under Ids tan. and he reached out both
hands gropingly as If seeking some
support.
"Tom! Tom! What Is It?" cried
Betty In alarm. "You nre 111!"
Her very ton« was a enress. It told
Colonel Burton that she had given the
priceless treasure of her love to the
graceless young scamp. There was
something In her expression, ns she
sprang forward, that went to the
worldly man's heart. For n moment
he hesitated; then he did a most sur
prising thing. Instead of denouncing
the rascal, he pushed forward n chair.
"Better sll down, young man. until
you get t»ver It."
Pouring a gins* of water he held It
to Tom's lips, wondering at himself
as he did so. The latter drank gulp
Ingly, looked up wildly and beseech
ingly into the stern fnce bending over
him.
"It wn* hot In the field." he mut
tered after a moment. "Guess I'd bet
ter go and lie down."
"Yes. do." said Betty, giving hint
her strong young shoulder to lean
upon.
The colonel's brows knitted ns he
gazed after them. Something in the
attitude of the two bridged a gulf of
forty years. Hi* hard face softened
s little a* lie met the Imploring look
with which the young man dlsap
t >on rod.
"I am getting chicken henfted." he
muttered. "I couldn't make up my
inlnd to si«'nk Is*fore that girl. There's
something beautiful In such trusting
love. The old man will have to hear
the tale."
Aloud he said:
"That young fellow was taken verv

"It never happened afore," returned
the unsuspecting farmer. "Tom | S

men about the place."
"You seem fond of him "

Tom looks arter everything—keeps

outdo me when it comes to raisin'
crops, for all he's a new hand at sich
work."
"Humph! said Colonel Burton. And

Did he have plenty of ntonev?"

"Theres buying and selling In run

The colonel swung about and
frownlngly walked the room for sev
eral minutes. lie wn* debating a
question with himself. "I'll wait until
morning." be decided finally. I here
was no reason why he should spare
Tom. hut tie could not hear the
thought of hurting poor, trusting Bet
ty. No matter whut came of delay
he would do nothing hasty or Ill-ad
vised.
Supper over, he strolled to the barn.
Whut he hud counted upon happened
—Tom followed him out. The latter
began abruptly.
"Of course you'll have me arrested,
sir?"
"Yes. unless you show a clean pair
of heels between now and morning,"
snapped the harassed elder man.
Tom stared, amazed at tlip sugges
tion the words conveyed. Flight! He
had not counted on being shown any
mercy. But lie shook Ids head.
"No, I shall stay and face the
worst."
"the bigger fool you! It's a clear
case. You must know that flight Is
your only chance."
''No matter. Some day everything
wl!l come right."
The colonel looked at him sharply.
What did he mean?
"See here," he said gruffly. "You're
In love with that girl. What were you
going to do If I hadn't turned up so
Inopportunely? Marry her?"
"Not with a stain upon my name."
"She cares for you. If I hold my
tongue, she will uever know! You
ought to think of her happiness—and
of your own."
Tom turned resolutely, but his face
was white.
"Betty's name must not brought Into
this." he said. "I made up my mind
!o go when I saw how it wns between
her and rue, I was only waiting until
the crops were harvested, or Daddy
Grlir.es hnd found a man to rake my
place. If I did not know how useless
It would he. I'd ask you to spare me
until then."
The young man's eyes were wistful.
Colonel Burton struck his fist into one
palm with sudden passion. It angered
him beyond all reason that Tom
should take this course with him.
"Don't count on concessions from
me," he growled. "You'll get none."
"Very well, sir."
And yet Colonel Rurton did some
hard thinking that night when he
should have been asleep. He had al
ways liked Tom. For a year and a
half the follow hnd made good. He
hnd not even hidden his Identity un
der another mime. It was hard to
think ill of him. And yet an Innocent
man would have turned every stone
to prove his Innocence, Instead of tak
ing to his heels.
Suddenly, alone In the darkness, he
spoke aloud.
"I did the boy some favors. He
seemed to regard me as an elder
brother. It I« very strange—Incompre
hensible—that—" '
The words died In n gasp of pain
ns a sudden thought struck him like a
stunning blow.
Next morning he went down to
breakfast with n rather tragic face.
"Yon are needed here." he said,
when there was a chance for a word
with Tom alone. "Better stay for the
present."
Two dnys Inter he returned to the
city.
A month went hy. One mornlne a
brief letter came from him. It rend
as follows :
"Tom—Marry the girl as soon ns
you like. You tried to screen the real
thief, but I've found him out. Enough
of thnt. The subject is too painful. I
owe you something for wlmt you have
suffered through me and mine. Set
the wedding day and I'll come up and
lift the mortgage on the farm."
Tom's eyes blurred as he read.
"Poor man. I am not sorry that 1
did what I could to spare him."
