t The Man Who Weakened ?
(Copyright, 1S0S, by American Press Asso
ciation.]
We all realise how hard it Is to be
good, but are not often reminded of
how bard It la to be bad. The truth
la that our lives are like the gyro
scope, that paradoxical toy which, once
set revolving in a certain place, resists
being turned Into au.v other plane.
Michael Tlernau had been sent to
school when u boy, had been brought
up religiously, and his associates were
respectable people of the working
class. Mike was a good workman,
but when the commercial panic of
1907 came on, with thousands of oth
ers, he dropped out of employment.
Having a wife and several children,
his heartstrings were strained by a
terrlllo tension. To see his little ones
hungry, paling every day for the want
of necessary sustenance, to be driven
with his family from one lodging to
anotUer, each successive rooftreo being
more rotten and shabby than Its pred
ecessor, was crucifying to the poor
man's sensibilities.
Mike's boy. Little Mike, four years
old, was the apple of his father's eye.
Little Mike became 111. and tempta
tion came to his father at the same
time. Little Mike's calling for food
that was not to be had, necdlug med
ical attendance that was only for the
prosperous, was tn*> much for Mike.
He was approached by two men who
were entering houses and appropriat
ing the contents. They wanted a third
to assist them and made him a prop
osition. The question "What should
he do?" Is oue that has puzzled the
best Intellects. In the eye of society
there Is but one answer.
A few days later tho three men, Pat
Dolau. .lltn Murphy and Mike, broke
Into a dwelling In the center of large
grounds, far enough from other houses
to enable them to work without being
heard by the neighbors. One of tho
women of the family, awakened by a
bright light being dashed lu her face,
began to scream. Dolau ordered her
to keep quiet, meanwhile feeling for
the electric switch, aiii^jvhen he found
it he lighted up the whole floor. The
master of the house Jumped out of bed
to sec what was the matter and ran
Into Murphy's arms. Dolan knocked
the screaming woman senseless, then,
placing Mike on guard over every one
on the floor, went downstairs to collect
tho valuables there, while Murphy ran
sacked the bedrooms.
Mike found himself in a position
that he had not counted on. He had
prepared himself to be brave and had
partially satisfied his conscience that
he was doing no wrong In taking what
another did not especially need to
keep life In his darling boy. But ho
had not prepared himself to pose as a
burglar. The situation to the Inmates
of the house was appalling. The wo
man who had been stilled had fainted,
aud tho master of the house was try
ing to revive her. lie turned to Mlko
and said:
"You are not even respectable bur
glars. None but the most contempts*
ble will Injure a woman."
"We're driven to It, sir," said Mike.
"We can't get work, and our families
are starving."
At that moiucut a door opened ana
a little boy In a white nightie, tumbled
curls falling over his forehead, under
which hit* eyes blinked In the sudden
llfclit, came out Into the hall.
"Papa," he said, "what has this man
a false face on for?"
This was too much for Mike. He
snatched the boy in his arms, crying
at the same time:
"fcve got one like him at home."
At tho same moment Murphy came
out of one of the bedrooms with a bag
full of Jewels. Seeing Mike caressing
a child, he called to Dolan below:
"Mike's weakening!"
Without a word Dolan rushed up
stairs. Mike heard him coming and
put down the child. Dolan ran up to
Mike and hammered him with the
butt of his revolver. Then, having
quieted, as he supposed, the better
nature of his assistant, he resumed his
pillaging. An hour after euterlng the
premises the burglars left with the
usual threat to kill any one giving an
alarm within a certain time.
The next morning Dolan read an
account of the robbery In the morning
papers and noted a statement that
hopes were entertained that the bur
glar who had weakened If offered im
munity might be Induced to turn
state's evidence. Dolan paled. The
three had separated before daylight,
and he could not reach Mike till even
ing. During the day he resolved to
put his assistant where he would tell
no tales? under tho sod? and revolved
in his mind methods for doing so.
Mike did not read the account of his
weakeulug, but his mind was made
up as to his future course. Scarcely
had the plundered family finished
breakfast when It was announced that
a man was outside with information
concerning the robbery. It proved to
be Mike, who then and there confessed
his share in the robbery.
Mike Tlernan was not prosecuted.
The man whose property he had been
instrumental In restoring gave him
employment, and the Tlernan family
Is now living In comparative comfort.
Mike has no fears till Dolan and Mur
phy shall have served a twenty year
sentence, but that Is a long while. In
the meantime he Is working hard,
tho only sore spot In his mind being
his one connection with criminals.
Mike Tlernan was turned to crime
through an unselfish motive, love for
his child. ITe was turned away from
crime by being reminded of his boy
by the child he had taken In his arms.
Surely the Innocence of childhood Is
all powerful.

ITCHING ECZEMA
FIFTY-FIVE YEARS
Suffered Torments from Birth ?
Boils Formed as Big as Walnuts
?In Frightful Condition and Could
Hardly Work? Tried All Kinds of
Remedies to No Avail? At Last
WHOLLY CURED IN 8
MONTHS BY CUTICURA
"I had an itching, tormenting ecwma
over since I camo into the world, and I
nm now a man fifty-five year* old. I
tried all kind* cf medicines I heard of,
hut found no relief. 1 was truly in a
frightful condition. At last tny blood
was go bad that I broke- out all over
with red and white boil*, which kept
(trowing until they were as big a* wal
nuts, causing great pain and misery. I
thought they would take the skin off
my w^iole body, but I kept from wratch
ing as well as I could. I was so run
down that I could hardly do my work.
Mr. Nelson R. Burnoii recommended
the use of Cuticura Remedies, telling
me he was confident they would benefit
and. in time, cure me. 1 used the Cuti
cura Soap, Ointment. Resolvent, and
Pills for atwut eight months, and I can
truthfully say I am cured. I cordiallv
recommend Cuticura Remedies to all
who are afflicted the same as I was, be
lieving that. If they will use them
according to directions, they will firvu
them all they are represented to be.

can write to Mr. Burnett, who will clieer
