Billy Moreton was bora reckless
Reckless people usually expect other
people to be reckless. Billy expected
this. They are usually generous and
expect their friends to be generous.
Such was the case with BUly.
One night ho was sitting In a gam
bling house when a man stepped up to
hliu and handed him a letter from ono j
John Ripley, The letter stated that
the man, Peter Stevenson, wanted i
some money with which to engage in
a speculative pursuit Ripley would |
furnish part of the amount If Moreton
would put up the remalnlug part The j
two who furnished the- capital were to
be interested In the results of Steven
son's speculation.
Moreton read the letter and without
looking up at Stevenson shoved ten
dollars' worth of chips on to the faro
board before him, saying, "If this
wins I'll go you." There were win- 1
nlugs for awhile; then the pile was re
duced and added to for an hour, when
the $10 had grown to $250.
"That'll do." said Stevenson. "I can
get on with that"
Moreton passed $250 over to him and
without taking an acknowledgment of |
any kind went on with his game. Ste- J
venson departed, and BUly Moreton
forgot nil about the transaction.
The next thing Billy did was to fall
In love. It not only happened that he
fell In love when the tide had turned
against him, but his girl had the good
sense to act upon the fact that he was
one of those men who know nothing
of the value of money till there is no
chance for them to get any. She told
BUly that sho loved him, bat unless he
changed his nnture, which was Impos
sible. she would not think of bringing
untold misery upon him, her and un- 1
born children by marrying him.
BUly was not absolutely worthless,
indeed, all he needed was some one to
manage his cash for him. He prom
ised Helen H&rtshorne that if she
would marry him he would turn ev
ery cent he made over to her for keep
ing and spending. Helen weakened.
BlUy followed up the advantage and
won her.
From that day there was a greet
change in BUly Moreton. He scraped
together a little cash (borrowed from
friends he had loaned money to or
money repaid by them) and went tnto
business for himself. His wife was
his cashier and attended to the entire
finances. BUly managed the trade
part of the business, and a very good
business man he made. A little one
was born to the pair, and this tended
to steady BUly.
It Is hnrd to stamp out a natural
weakness. In other words, "bray a
fool in a mortar and be is still a fooL"
One day a friend of Billy's came to

home in doubt whether to commit sui
cide or tell his wife that he had acted
without her concurrence and had
ruined himself, her and their little
kid As he was crossing a street he
saw an acquaintance directing a
stranger toward him. The stranger
approached him and said:
"Mr. Moreton. 1 believe?"
"That's my name."

"Yon may not remember It, but
three years ago you advanced me
some monoy for"?
"I'm not advancing money any more.
What I've done has ruined me. You
must excuse me."
And Billy walked on. The stranger
followed. Under the broad rim of his
hat his eyes shone with a peculiar
light
"Yoa wouldn't grub stake a man,
would you, while he Is hunting up a

"No, I wouldn't Among the many

"Would you mind giving me a re

"What $17,000?" Billy looked up.
puzzled.
The stranger took a pile of notes
from his pockets, handed them to
Moreton and, after recounting tho
scene at the faro table, said: "The
money you gave me and what John
Ripley, who Introduced me to you,
furnished was used to grub stake me

Billy seized the notes, gave a quick
glance at them, then a quick glance at
Stevenson, then without a word dash

minutes later his wife was In his
