Miss Herman drank water from

belllously answered, a thin ribbon
of blood streaming from his nose,
the light of battle in his eyo.
■"Tiiin't enough till he says I can
sell papers here."
"Ain't h« th' divll!" the polloe
man ejaculated admiringly. "Ye
stay all right kid. Ye'rt; th' boss
now. Show's over, triads. Move
on."
And so, while his late antagonist
slunk, sniffling, away to hide his
disgrace, Hob McAdoo stayed,
master of the field and convert to
the doctrine of the meat Ameri
can specialty—Monopoly. When
darkness fell that evening the
original dime's investment and a
third replenishment were sold out;
and Hob, with a pocket full of
pennies, faced the responsibilities
of wealth.
When the policeman entered his
home that night and laced Ills

quaking spirit.

sarcastically, "well, now, Pathrlcii

Whilo Patrick chuckled within
himself over the success o£ his
diplomacy, Norah fell to her knees
and drew the boy to her ample

his childish heart were melted and
Bob burst into a- torrent of sobs.

CHAPTER 11.
Bob Tiays Hold of the World.
With deep stisfaction of soul
' Bob opened his eyes on a new
day.
"I'll stay here." he iaid aloud.
And stay he did, Hob, in the
arrogance of his boyish egotism,
1 lakinK his welcome for ffrant&'J,
I while to the Flinns, liiß-hearted
jand Instinctively hospitable, it
, never occurred to wonder at the
boy's presumption. The arrango
-1 nient thus tacitly established prov
jed a happy one. Hob found in the'
1 wholesome, homely atmosphere of j
the policeman's family Ufa a partial!
.collective for the dwirl'ins influ
ence of the tenement. As for Pat
'lHck and his wife, had they been
I told —which they never were —■
I that, they were exercising an un
, usual virtue In thus adopting the
i little vagrant, they would have
been abounded, such pride did
I they take in Bob from the begin
ning. And the non-appearance of
little Paddy ceased to trouble their
honest hearts.
So it was that when Policeman
l.FUnn set out that noon to his
I duties. Bob accompanied him, to. I
•'revisit yesterday's battle-field
1' where henceforth, by light of con
. quest and Patrick's protection, he
1 was to reign supreme. And when
Jthe day's work was done, together
. they returned home to "lrishtown.'.
1 A few days later their bonds
i were finally rivlted.
It was Sntimlay nigVit, and the,
family of Flinn was gathered in
the kitchen, which WU also the
living room. The master of this
household, reclined in the one big
arm-chair, was seeking the mini
strations of my lady Nicotine, who,
in Patrick's case, was a very
strong lady indeed. Xorah's head
I was bent abstractedly over a bas
ket of sewing -no fine lady's em
broidery, bii the homelier task —
and no mean one —of darning her
llord's socks. Over the table in the
I corner Bob counted the earnings
of the week. To this tusk the as
sistance of Molly and Kathleen
was needed, since, alas! Bob'n
notions of arithmetical values af
ter the sum of ten was reached
were hopelessly vague.
'•Three dollars and fifty-three
cents," Kathleen announced proud
ly.
" 'Tis th' wealth ay th' Injles,"
gibed Patrick. "I B'po-ie uqw. Bob
Jye'll be lavin' yer friends ft th'
niilyunaires ay th' East End, ye're
so ruch? Belike, yell tet up wid
la bank here In Irlshtown. 'Bob

large sound to it. Or better still,
yell kape a saloon. 'Twould be a
fine investmint, tlist last; Irish
town has a anakin' thirrust f'r the
crather."
"Ho'll be layin' aside a bit ny
it, a dime or a quarther mebby,
f'r th' Sisters whin they come,
won't ye, Bob?"
Xorah suggested piously.
But Bob had planned other uses
for his money than wither specu
lation or charity. He laid to one
side the fifty-three cents and gath
ered together the three dollars,
which he carried over to Norah
and dropped, jingling, into her
capacious lap.
"An" what's this for?"
"Take It," said Bob.
"Ye mane kape it I'r ye?"
"No, keep It fer yourself."
"An" why should I kape it?" de
manded Norah.
"To pay fer me bed an' grub."
"Away wid ye, ye little rapscal
lion! Kape yer money, yell be
nadin' It f'r clothes an' th' like.
Ye can stay here without payln" yer
way, an' welcome."
"Bat that's char'ty ain't It?"
Bob demanded directly.
"Well, yes—sometimes," Norah,
returned slowly, embarrassed by
the straightforward question. "But
not In this case, whin It's frlnde
U givin' to ye."
"Aaln't goin' to be a char'ty
boy." Bob insisted. "Ohar'ty boys
gits licked."
With a sudden warm gesture,
Norah caught the boy to her.
"Shure," she exclaimed compas
sionately, "ye poor la-ad, ye're nof
thin kin' we're goin' to bate js«,
are ye, Bobsy?"
"No," he answered promptly,
"but I got to pay."
"But why?" Norah Insisted.
"I don't know," Bob returned
slowly, with a puzzled frown, "I

aflTt a cheap skate. You'll keep
ICVon't yoik?"
J "Not a cint ay It," Norah de
clared flatly.
Bob gave no answer to this de
claration other than to collect the
coins and place them in his pocket.
Then he took Ills cap from Its peg
and, without a word or backward
glance, made for the door.
'Hould on there," Patrick cried,
leaping afcer the boy and seizing
him. "Where arre ye goln'?"
"I don't know," said Hob coolly.
"Thin why arre ye lavin' this
time a? pint?"
"I'm goin' to find a ploce where
they'll 4et me pay."
For a moment Patrick slarod
helplessly at bin, wife, and then
laughed delightedly. "Ain't he th 1
llltli- dlvil! Hand th' money to th'
oulU woman. Ye stay, Bob."
_So Bob established his footing
aiid won his second battle.
When the money had been put
away, Norah sat down once more
and surveyed ber husband suspi
ciously. His half-closed eyes were
gazing with intense i •>>■ into the
smoke-cloud, between the puffs
loud chuckles broke from his lips,
his big body shaking w'th merri
ment.
"An 1 what be ye alchukliu' at?'
she demanded.
'Shure, Norah, darllut, at th'
way th' little divil worruked roun'
ye. gettin' his way an" all, an'
lxakirf ye take th' monoy."
"Humph!" his spouse sniffed
tartly. "An' who arre ye to l>o

yet! Hut," her tone changed to
one of pride, "it's line stuff th'
little glntlemin's made of, with
his pride an' all."
"Ain't a gentleman," Hob flared
up unexpectedly from bis corner.
".Mm Thompson's a gentleman an'
he's nothing but a drunk bum."
