nay, I had been obliged to withdraw from
the bank the small sum. which, besides
my salary, was all I possessed of worldly
treasures. Thinking of this, 1 laid the
coin down with a sigh, and turned-away
to attend to my duties.
The next morning I was again sum
moned into the office, but this time I met
with no friendly greeting as usual,
"Harvey," said my employer, abiuptly,
"that coin we were looking at has disap
peared. I have made a thorough search,
but it is not to be found. It has h'-en
carried away "'by sonic one You alone
saw or knew of it, and "
He paused and looked significantly into
my face. I finished ihe sentence for him,
lhs. hot blood dying cheeks and brow as
I sp'ke.
'You mean therefore, that I took it
I !"
"What else can I think? The coin
whs here ; you alone saw it. I cannot re
call having seen it since it as in your
hands. Yon arc in need -of nionv : you
have told me that yourself. . It w.-is a

''Very well," said I with forced raini
ness, so be it. Since you have so poor an
opinion of me after years of faithful ser
vice,"! sdiull not sloop to defend myself."

But for the tender love of iuy wife, I
doubt not but that I would have buried
my sorrows in the grave of a suicide.

For an instant my conrage faltered, bull
the remembrance of i Iny starving family
came to my aid and, with a silent prayer
for protection and success, I placed my
hand on the next block above my bead
and clambered up.
From block to block I went steadily
and cntiously, try each one ere 1 trusted
my weight npbii it,
Two-ibirds of the space had been pass
ed, when suddenly the block that support
ed me moved gave way. Oh,-heavens!
never, though i: should live to see a hun
dred years', shall I cease to phuddcr at the
recollection of that terrible moment.
Yet, even in the miJst of my agony, as
I felt myself slipping backward, 1 did net
for one second lose my presence of mind.
It seemed to me tlwt never before had
my senses been bo pr ternuturally acute, as
then, when n horrible death seemed inevi
table. !
Down, down I slipped, grasping at each
block as I passed it by, until at length my
fearful course was arrested, and then-

But, no! more than ever now I was de

Coolly, but cautiously, I commenced
the ascent once more, first seeking in vain
