"I want the help of a thoroughly re liable solicitor,"! he. aald. "I wish to purchase some property not Tahiable property, bnt of Importance to me. Can you, give me the address of some one known to you? M. Foret named a reputable firm In the locality, "They may refer to yon," added rhllip. "Of course I do hot ask you to say more than that I am staying here, but the point is I do not wish you to mention my age." "WJll you not see them, then? 1 "No. I will endeavor to conduct the whole business by post." The manager laughed. "You certainly; are the coolest young gentleman I ever met However,' Mr. Anson, it may please you to know that your bank gave you the best of rec ommendations. I will say so to any body.", .1 So Philip . first drafted and then copied the following letter:. I Dear Sirs M. Foret, of this hotel, has riven tne your names as a firm likely-to transact certain negotiations tor ' me. I want to purchase a small property In th Mil End road, known as Johnson's Mews, also a shop near th1 entrance to the mews, tenanted by a marine store dealer named O'Brien. Th mews Is owned by the Cardiff and Havre Coal ; com pany, limited. I do not know who owns the shop. I wish to acquire these prop erties for-a philanthropic purpose, but I am most desirous that my name should not figure In th transaction. I propose, therefore, when you have ascertained the price, which should , be at th earliest possible moment, to pay to your credit th requisite amount.' You can hav . the properties transferred to any nomine you choose and again transferred to me. Kindly ad your costs, etc., to th pur chase price. My movements are some what uncertain, so please ' send? alt com munications by letter. It will be an obli gation and lead to future business If you at end to this matter tomorrow morning. Yours faithfully. PHILIP ANSON. He did not compose this letter with out considerable trouble.

It was from Mr. Abingdon. , ' ! Can e you afte at my hou. Then Philip enjoyed his , first real breathing space during houti of day light Ile.went by traia-IJie-eme-tery In which-his mother was buried. carrying with him a beautiful wreath. It was a remarkable fact that this was the first vjslt he had paid to her grave. During the days of misery and partial madness which followed her death he never lost the deletion that her spirit abided with him In the poor dwelling they called "home." ; c Hence the narrow resting place be- nenth the green turf in no way appeal ed to him. But now that a succession of extraordinary external events bad restored the balance of bis mind be realized that she was really dead and burled; that what he revered as her spirit was In truth a fragrant memory; that he would be nearest to her mortal remains when standing in the remote corner of the burial ground allotted to the poorest of the poor those removed by one degree from puperdom 'and a parish grave. i . It. happened by mere chance -that since Mrs. Anson's funeral no one bad been interred on one side of the small space purchased for her. ! There were three vacant plots, here, .! and a sur prised official told Philip there would be no difficulty. In acquiring these for the purpose of erecting a suitable mon ument.. . ' The boy filled in the necessary forms there and then. It was some consola tion to know that he could perpetuate her memory . In this way. though ho had formulated another project which should keep her name revered through the ages. On the site of Johnson's Mews should arise the Mary Anson Home For Des titute Boys. He would build aplace where those who were willing to work and learn would be given a chance and not driven, starving and desperate, to pick up an existence in the gutter. I - He was too young to devise all the details of such a splendid institution, but he had got the idea and would wtere eta astounding adreatarrs round their center aad genesis. , Mr. Ablngdoo dld'sot doebt for oxt moment that the boy was teUE&g the trath.

V He was early to bed, and his rest was not disturbed by dreams. He rose long before- the ordinary residents. Deferring his breakfast, he walked to Fleet street and purchased copies of morning and evening papers for the whole of the week. He could thus enjpy the rare luxury of seeing himself as others saw him. He read the perfervld descriptions of the scene in court and found himself variously described as "pert," "mas terful," "imperious," "highly intelli gent" "endowed with a thin veneer of education" and "affected." Philip could afford to laugh at the unfavorable epithets. Up to the age of thirteen he had been trained In a first rate lycee, and his work was supervis ed by his mothera woman of very great culture. He spoke French as well as English and spoke both admirably. He knew some Greek and Latin, was well advanced in arithmetic and had a spe cial penchant for history and geog raphy. !'.- , ' It was In the glowing articles which appeared during his Imprisonment that, he took the keenest interest. Oddly enough, one Ingenious correspondent blundered on to a clew. Gifted with an analyUcal mind, he had reasoned that the diamond laden meteor fell during the extraordinary storm of the lf)th, and the meteorological department in Victoria street helped him by describ ing the center of the disturbance as situated somewhat to the east of the London hospital.' The writer had: actually Interviewed a member of the! staff of that Institu tion who amused himself by noting barometrical f agarles. His instrument recorded an extraordinary Increase of pressure soon after 10 o'clock on the night of the storm. ' . "Alas," said the; scribe, "it did not In dicate where the meteor fell, and not. a policeman, bus driver or railway offi cial can be found who observed any thing beyond a phenomenal electrical display and a violent downpour ' r rain." j . That was too close to be pleasant, and Philip waa glad to hear from M. Foret that the solicitors after telephon ing to ask for some particulars concern ing Mr.' Anson were giving prompt at tention to his Instructions. . i "What did you tell them?' asked I Philip. 1 ! - "I said that you , Impressed me aa the kind of young gentleman who would ' pay well for services given unsparing ly." i ; ' ! -; "Did that satisfy them?" ! 'Terfectly. Such clients do ; not ; abound In these hard times." i ' . 1 Three hours latpr a letter came for. Philip Anson, Esq., by hand. It was from the solicitors and read: We are in receipt! of your esteemed In structions. Although Saturday Is a day on which it is difficult to do business, we lost no time In Inspecting the premises. In the Mile End road, accompanied ' by a surveyor. We found that the mews stand approximately on an area of 8.200 super ficial feet, while the Shop tenanted by O'Brien has a frontage on the main road of, eighteen feet, with a probable depth of' thirty or thirty-five feet. Th owner of this shop Is a resident In the neigh borhood, and he will accept 450 for the freehold. j We were fortunate In finding tha man aging director of the Cardiff and Havre Coal company, limited, at his office. Al though" the company require ' the mews for the purpose of a depot, they are not unwilling to sail, with a stipulation that the premises shall not be used by any competing company during a period of twenty yrs from the date jof transfer. to older beads The one essential feature Was that generations yet unborn should, learn to love and honor the name of Mary An son. Provided that were achieved, he knew )the work would be successful. v Soori after leaving the cemetery he came face to face with Bradley, the policeman, who was in plain clothes and walking with a lady, obviously Mrs. Bradley, judging by the matronly manner In which she wheeled a" per: ambulator containing a chubby infant. ""Well, I'm blowed!" cried the pollce man. "Who would have; thought of meeting you? I looked in at the mews last night but you had gone. Some one is looking after you pretty well, eh?" : . r, ; , He cast a patronizing eye Over Phil ip's, garments, which, were, of course. way do you wish me to serve you?" Ol course you have not sought this inter view and told me your story so unre servedly without an -ulterior object In view. You see, I am beglnulng to un derstand you already a little better than when we first hiet." Philip did not reply immediately.
