For seyeral j-eaxs the fates were kind arid he knew nothing but domestic happiness and professional success, but in an ' evil hour the fortune he bad accumulated was swept away by speculation. Close on the heels of financial disaster came domestic dis cojrd and jealousy.and the once happy home became a hell on earth. Solace was sought in drink, and the man wds soon on the road to ruin. For several years he has been an outcast and a wanderer on the face of the eatth, with only enough pride to conceal the name once honored.
