The Code of
j Honor
By JOHN PALMER
(®. IMS. WwUrn N«w»p»per Union. I
bad been given a month’*
notice to leave after thirteen
years’ service with the Sears-Smith
son company, and the notice had come
from Smithson himself, who had first
engaged him as a junior clerk. ;j
Kruse had worked his way up ti
the management of a department, and
he was being discharged to make way
for Smithson’s nephfew. That was
what galled. It was the dirtiest trick
in hls experience.
During those weeks of notice h*
had been making his plans. He could
get in with the Bryon company, and
he would use all his influence to win
away Smithson’s customers. But that
was an' invisible revenge. Kruse
wanted something more tangible, and
he had it at last in the letter that
lay before him. . . j
He had opened the letter xpechan
ically, because he found it on his
desk, without noticing that it was ad
dressed to Smithson. It was a love
letter, couched in impassioned terms,
written to Smithson by a girl signing
herself “Dorothy.’’
Now Smithson had a wife, a very
formidable and fashionable one, a
pillar pf society and of the church.
She came into the office sometimes,
a sweeping, majestic creature with
no nonsense about her. Every' one
knew that Sinithson was Indebted to
her position ahd money for the joh.
he held. Everybody knew that he was
afraid, of her.
It wns very difficult to imagine any
one being in love with Mrs. Smithson.
Certainly Smithson wasn’t. It was
also fairly certain that if Mrs. Smith
son got wind of that, letter there
would be a breakup in the Smithson
family. Mrs. Smithson was not the
woman t# stand for anything like
that. , _
“I’ve got him where, I want ■ him,”
said Kruse, looking at the letter.
And the possession of it gave
Kruse a feeling/ of-Joy all day. It
braced him, up during a rather trying
interview with Smithson, when both
men did their best to pretend that
the former cordial relations still ex
isted. All the while Kruse was
chuckling inwardly. He would hand
Smithson that letter —no, hold It up
for inspection just out of Smithson’s
reach, when he got tired of playing
with hinr.
Blackmail? Oh, no, Kruse wasn’t
that kind of man. He wouldn’t stay
If Smithson begged him on hip bend
ed knees. He just meant to send it
to Mrs. Smithson and get his own
back.
And Smithson was so kindly. That
was another thing that galled Kruse.
He was a gentleman, even If he was
planning to play a dirty trick on him.
A dozen times that afternoon Kruse
wavered, and all but consigned the
compromising letter to the waste-baa
ket. But the desire to get even with
Smithson triumphed.
“I wonder what hell do,” thought
Kruse. “I wonder if he’ll squirm and
wriggle. I hope he offers me the job
back; then 111 Just hold this letter
over his head, and I’ll be fixed for
life.”
But, though Kruse enjoyed these
speculations he couldn’t bring himself
to do a trick like that. For Kruse
was a gentleman, too, but one under
temptation.
Oh, well, he’d get his revenge, that
was all. It didn’t pay to be squeam
ish. Certainly Smithson hadn’t been
squeamish witn him. That was
Kruse’s final decision after lunch.
And all the afternoon he sat waittng
for the slack time toward the end of
the office day, when ho could go to
Smithson and have his revenge.
It came at last. Kruse arose and
went into Smithson’s office. Smith
son was alone there; no girt worked
in the place with him. Smithson was
sitting at his desk. He looked up
anxiously, almost deferentially as
Kruse entered.
“I’d like a few words with you, Mr.
Smithson,” said Kruse. V
Smithson pushed hack his pad.
“Sit down, Mr. Kmse,” he Bald.
( Kruse produced the letter. “I got
this and opened it by accident,” he
said. “I didn’t know what it was
about until I’d read it”
He had handed it to Smithson after
aU. He hadn’t meant to do that Ho
watched Smithson’s'face as he glanced
at it, turned to tUe signature.
“Oh, thank you, Kruse," said Smith
son, putting, the letter in his pocket.
“Sorry you were troubled with It.”
Kruse went ant. And suddenly bo
realized that hp had lost all his sense
of rancor. Smithson had accepted
the act aa a irtatter of course. He had
never dreamefa Kruse would think of
patting the letter to baas use.
“If he’d yrhlned or offered me my
job back IJd have had np-pity on
him,” Kruse muttered as he went back
to his desk.
And after all he had evened things
up pretty/fairly well.
