BERLINER \1 (Copyright 1310, by AsBcoiated Lltsrary Preee.) Except When Webster Smith placed his sign outside the,door of the cottage he had chosen for an office and liv ing room, he gave a sigh of relief. The first step In his career had been taken. Smith was a lawyer. An indulgent parent a leading member of the bar of a nearby city, A t as responsible for Smith's residence In the suburban vtl htae. \What the dence will they want of a lawyer out there, dad?\ he had asked his father. \Never mind, Webb,” had been his reply. “We are overrun with budding lights and diploma-bred attorneys here. You get out where no one ever heard of a lawyer named Smith and let’s see what's In you.” So the newly admitted member of the bar had come to the little place, more to satisfy his father than to practise the arts of one Blackstone. Blairville had never had a full- blooded attorney-at-law before. There was 'Squire Brown, a kindly old mag istrate, who dispensed justice and warrants at so much per head. No thought of ever questioning a deci sion of the 'squire ever entered the heads of the simple country folk. The advent of Webster Smith, At- torney-at-Law, as the sign read, was duly noted In the weekly Telegraph, commented on around the cracker barrel at Deacon Jones' grocery and then forgotten. Time went on as It has a habit of doing and the attorney still waited his first client. Repeatedly, he had traveled to town to Inform his father that the simple life was too wearisome for him to\ bear longer. Webster had become acquainted. What good-looking young man, a stranger in a small town, could avoid it? There was Sadie Brown, the squire's only daughter, a miss of long stand ing, who always kept a watch out for strangers, In hopes of annexing a husband, despite her advancing years. Theresa Perkins was another kind ly soul who took It upon herself to imvnxf / mpt ' ctw /v /xr dtxjer' cr mjt zaner, x v look out for the welfare of strangers. Her pity was also for a purpose. Mat rimony was the goal she would reach. The attorney with the ordinary name treated all the damsels with politeness, steadily declined any In vitations and spent most of his time reading decisions of the higher courts. Then Betty Sloan came to town. She was visiting the Turners, up on the pike road. Blairville at once be came Interesting to the barrister, and he pondered on a way to get ac quainted. 4 Betty was a typical summer girl. When Smith first saw her she was dressed In a fluffy pink gown. This at once scored for Miss Betty, for Webster Smith had a decided lik ing for pink. It had been his favor ite color at college, and some had gone so far as to call him Plnkey. It was a hot, duty August morn ing. Seeking a cool nook the young lawyer had esconsed himself In a hammock on the porch of his office, a fan In one hand and a magazine In the other. Evidently the story had not proved very Interesting, for he was aroused from his slumber by a knock on one of tho porch posts, while a voice, rather timidly, was saying?' \I beg pardon, is this Mr. Smith?\ Smith hastily leaped from the ham- qmck and bowed low to the vision In pink before him, and whom he at once recognized at Betty Sloan. ‘.“Webster Smith, at your service!** he exclaimed. \Won’t you step into the office?\ \I would much prefer to sit out here where It Is cool and shady, Mr. Smith,” she replied. ‘You see I have come to consult you on legal busi ness.** Her words brought him back to earth. She had come to consult him on legal business '*1 His first case! Smith could not bring his senses to gether to figure out what kind of a case she could have for him. He brought out his large office chair. * \A client must confide In her law yer, I have been told,” commenced Betty, with an arch glance at the at torney before bar, \ao firat. of all I tmve a confession to make,\ \Miss Sloan, Is It necessary—** In terrupted the young man. The young; woman waved her hand for him to stop, and said slowly: “Tiat'e Just It, every one here calls me ‘Miss Sloan,’ when they should say, 'Mrs.'” \What!\ gasped the astounded man. All hia day dreams had slipped away In that explanation. Betty was a mar ried woman. Time and again he had thought of her, a pink slip of a girl, and now she told him she was—mar ried. \You see, Mr. Smith, I have been living up here with the Turners for some time; In fact, long enough to establish a residence with them for an express purpose. I want a di vorce.\ Aa she said the last word, she lowered her voice to a whisper, and looked young Smith straight In the eyes. What she saw seemed to please Bet ty Sloan greatly, for she would have been accused of laughing if Smith's eyes had their usual shrewdness, which was lacking a t this moment. “Yes, Mr. Smith, I want a divorce. I have tolerated his abuse and cruelty as long as human endurance can, and I am tired of It. My folks and his relatives have Interposed, but they have failed. Therefore, I have come to the court of last resort, you, a law yer,\ she said. Webster Smith was coming to him self. It was not so bad aa It might have been. Even though she were married, he might be able to secure a divorce and wed her himself. Such evil thoughts could not dwell In the mind of an honest person, and the lawyer put them away. He would treat the case as he had planned. Personalities must not count He requested her to explain fully all the facts of the case, residence of her husband, his full name and every thing necessary. As Betty leaned over, her flushed face near his own, Smith felt great pity for her wrongs and vowed that he would save her from such a brute John Sloan. He learned that she had married Sloan to save her father from some financial difficulty. She had not understood It herself, but her parents' appeal could not be refused, and thus she had become a partner In an un happy marriage. Smith promised to prepare the papers. He required more informa tion and this con.polled frequent calls to the big house on the hill. He drove the young woman about In his big racing car. As he learned to love her he tried to stifle the feel ing. No trace of the husband could be obtained. The law required adver tisement Smith shrunk from this. He dreaded to post her name in the pa pers. How to get around this was more than he could figure out. It com pelled him to go out to see Betty once more. Turner Informed him that Betty was not well and was preparing to re turn to the city. Stunned with tho Information, he Insisted on seeing her. “Great heavens!\ he exclaimed; \what has brought about this change? Have you heard from Sloan?\ “No, Mr. Smith, I have not heard from Mr. Sloan, and that Is what has made me feel so miserable,\ she said. \Yov see, there is no Mr. Sloan, and never was.\ \What!” shouted the astounded lawyer. What a relief thofl* words meant to him! \You see, Mr. Smith,\ she said, be tween sobs. “I had not been here long before I heard every one speak ing of the new lawyer, who never had a case. I felt so sorry for any one who had to remain here always and not even have any business, so I —I invented a case for you.\ \And well. Indeed, did you fool me,\ said young Smith. , “And you will forgive me?\ she asked, brightening a little, as she saw him smile. “Forgive you, Betty. There is noth- 'ug to forgive.\ His happiness had forced him to speak her name. \The time we have spent together, Betty dear, has shown me that I need a partner. I love you, little girl, I love you and want you to be my wife,” he told her. As Betty looked up hia happiness was complete, for he knew she loved him. \Tell me, girl, let me hear you say it.” “Webster, I am glad I came to the 'Court of Last Resort,*\ she whis pered. Priceless Memento. \And this,” says the proud man, \la one of my most priceless possessions. I would not sell it at any price.” \Why It's simply a queer photo graph. What does It symbolize?” asks tho Interested caller. “That Is a picture of my left ear, taken on the day the president whis pered In It ‘Please pass the salt* at a dinner given In his honor.\ Not Dlspoeed to Draw It Out. \To read a Bible through, at the rate of a chapter a day, would take three years and three months.\ “Well, I should read more than a chapter » day and pet It over with.\ Painless Dentistry Gold Crown Brldfl# Work In Attendance Specialty M. 12 A.
