It was all the point of view where Lawyer Mat- thews was concerned had strange fiue- tuations in the town.
CHAPTER NII. WN. MATTITEWSCALIS FOR IIS PITYSICTAN.
Mandeville had the usual contingent
of charitable and uncharitable people, |
of reticent thinkers and people given to speaking their minds plainly in sea son and out. In short, humanity was mixed there as elsewhere.
Dr. Govan had to rebuke old Mr. Langdon, the druggist, quite sharply more than once for asking bim, “How comes it Horace Matthews has got rich practiciug law in Melton county. where no other man has ever been able to more’n grabble a living at that busi- ness?” And Mr. Mills, the most pro- gressive man in Mandeville, who Lad actually had the temerity to import a man who had semething to do with an electric light system, with a view to seeing if Mandeville could not be se duced into discarding its old oi! lamps, actually heard Lawyer Matthews talk- ing to the electrician about his line of business, wanting to know if he could point out any opening for a young friend of his who would soon be re turning from the other side and would want to go into that sort of business. Of course his young friend must be Tom Broxton. Mr. Mills was one of the reticent thinkers, so he did not con fide even to his wife his great astonish meut at lLearinge that Rufe Broxton’s sou would have to go into any sort of business. But. although he discreetly refrained from proclaiming it upon the Louse tops. his private conviction was that “Liorace Matthews’ end of seesaw had gone up as fast as Tom Lroxton’s had gone down.”
Dr. Govan would have scored Mande. ville’s most progressive man with the same severity be visited upon the irre- sponsible old druggist~"a quacking quack.” as he bitingly ealled him- oniy it is impracticable to wage active hostilities against «a man who simply eyebrows and shrugs his
raises his
shoulders.
Dr. Giovas’s brend enatholicity and gentle judament of his fellow man were the logical reflex of bis own
sweetness of ratre and vr Sounding lth. Ht was natural that Hor-
come ib
eaol be ice Matthews shonld have for a goodir time of the fire, for
Mandeville was
never so rich in sensations as to let ene
din too rapidly through its mill But t was time to create a diversion. The
loctor began his missiopary work a1 home. If be could convert Mrs. Govan
into a partison. Matthews would be re
nstated with his ueighboers. A man vife is his best and surest safety valve. Mrs. Govan innocently immo
‘ated berself. “I was down to see the old Indy yes Malvina says she wisbes

“What's ‘Mother Spillman new 7"
“Nothing new. Malvina just ‘retted over the way the old lady peeks ) Hlorace Matthews. She says it's a ecninr monomania She says she is lost efiraid to let uny of the neigh mention Mr. Matthews’ name in er mother’s presence for fear she will ‘sve ont something ugly about him.”

“And yet,” the doctor said gravely, “Matthews has been consistently kind to the old creature. He has kept up ah the friendly services Broxton used te render her.”
“I know it. I know that, John, but ‘Mother’ Spiliman’s a woman of strong convictions. and she is not to be bought auy 2mount of flattery or sub- Stabtia: help.”
“Bought over?”

Dr. Govan gave his Wife au “et tu, Brute,” look and open- ed his battery without the preliminary of a curt challenge,
“Now, sce here, Matilda! gone over to the enemy?’
“Gone over to the enemy? Which enemy, John Govan?’ She smoothed the white bands of hair on her temples ¢ hervously, Jobn had such a dreadful ly incisive pair of eyes. He was using them just then as he used that sharp, shining probe among his surgical in- struments,
“Well, I should say pretty much al) Mandeville stood for the enemy at this juncture, and I should be sorry to see my wife aligning herself with them and sitting in judgment upon a man Who has never committed one overt act that man or woman could point te and say, “That is wrong.’ ”’
“Well, but, Johu’—
“Let me have the floor a litle while longer, if you please, my dear. 1 really feel as if Matthews needed a friend, a champion, if you choose. 1 will say te you in strict confidence I don't think he will be here many years longer.”
“What. John? Oh, that poor girl!”
“Of course this is for uo ear but yours.”
“I have been a doctor's wife 32 years, John.”
“And better one never doctor had.” An air kiss was floated from the doe- tor’s mature fingers to bring a simile to Matilda’s mature lips.
“But about Mr. Matthews?"
“Yes, about Matthews. I believe he is not unaware of the hostile attitud;: some of his old neighbors have as- sumed. Not all of them. The solid men of this community, the men whe Go their own thinking and enn look at a subject all-around, see Matthews as I do, a shrewd, close mouthed business man, with one object, and only one, in iife.”
“Olivia.”
“Precisely—Olivia. I doubt if there's any man in Meiton county who knows Matthews as well as I do. I Knew bim before his shell developed, knew him when i:s was in love with Lucetta
sroxton and looke] forward to marry ing her. Matthews was all right then. Ile was charged by her death into a silent, almost main. He was a fairly devoted husband to Olivia's mother, but nothing has ever come be- tiveen Lim and his first love. All the pent up forces of his nature have ex pended themselves on this giri. He has slaved to make her rich. He would d‘e to cake ber bappy.”
Mrs. Govan moved restlessly in her

chair. John really was not telling her a single thing she did not know al ready
“Yes; but, John, nobody bas—that ix, nobody shoulkd’—
She started and opened ber mild bive eyes to their widest extent. Jolin was positively pounding the arms of his ehair witb his clinched fist.
“I say it is an inhuman shame to damn Matthews because Tom [Brox- ton’s property has depreciated and his father’s investments turned out badly. Are Broxton’s riches the first that ever took wings to themselves? And _ be- cause, by close attention to his busi- ness, Matthews bas amassed a little bit bigger pile than the common run of Melton county attorneys the wise ones of the earth bave added two and two together, with malicious chuck- lings, and decided that Matthews is a scoundrel of the blackest shade.”
“All the same, it is a great pity that all of bis papers are burned,” said Mrs. Govan quietly.
“An awful pity,” the doctcr replied solemnly. “I do believe that it is the loss of those papers which has preyed on Matthews’ mind until be is almost ready to take to his bed. You see, all of his vouchers as Tom Sroxton's guardian went up ip that fire.”
“But Tom”’—
“Oh, Tom is all right! Matthews showed me a letter he got from birm in
answer to the announcement that all the papers were gone. He ts a grand fellow, Rufus Broxton’s own son.”
“] wish I could have secn It.”
“Ob, it was short! But it had point to it—by Jove, it had! I do not sup- pose 1 could repeat it verbatim, but 1 could give you the sense of it.”

softened in his case by the reflection that ho one would suffer by his losses but himself; that if? he could not pro- vide for bis individual wants tbe mon- ey expended on his education had been poorly placed. As it was not at al probable he should ever marry, the fu- ture did not cost him an thought.”
“Never marry! Why, be was up to his eyes in fove with Olivia Matthews before he left here.”
“Yes, but Westover got in the way of that.”
Mrs. Govan pursued her own line of thought in an aggrieved yoice.
“That would have made things a lit- tle more even, 2nd somehow | have al- ways looked forward to seeing an- other Mrs. Broxton at the old Hall.”
“Events have a provoking way of shaping their own course without any respect for our wishes or preferences, Matilda.”
To which sententious bit of wisdom Matilda accorded a grave athrmative. “But so on about Tom's letter. Jobn.”
“Weil, it seems that Matthews bad urged his coming here as his guest, to stay while they were going over the papers, to which Tom replied that as, owing to the unforeseen intervention ot the elements, there were no papers to be examined it would scarcely be advisable for him to come to Mande- ville just now. The visit could only be productive of pain to bin and dis- comfort to others.”
“Others, | suppose, meant Ollie,” Mrs. Govan interjected.
“He wound up by telling Matthews that he begged to assure him of his unaltered affection and contidence. There was no room in his heart for any other feeling toward the man bis fa- ther had loved and trusted.
“Did he say that, John? Poor Tem! Dear boy! Poor, poor laddie!”’
Mrs. Govan's tears were dropping fast upon the sewing sbe had laid upon ber lap.
“] think the reason Matthews sbow- ed me that letter,” said the doctor re- flectively, “was because he wanted me to know just how Tom felt about— about things.”
“Yes; that was natural, I see. But Tom—where is he going to locate, John? Did the letter state? Mrs. Spill- man Was asking me this morning if I knew where ‘Tom was.”
“We thinks bis chances as an elec- trician will be best out west in some growing place. He mentioned Kansas City. Shouldn't be surprised if he brought up there.”
“And so that is the last of the Brox- ten name for Melton county. Dear, dear, what changes one does see in a short lifetime! Why, John, about the time you brought me here a bride the
county. couuty affairs of any importance with- out Rufus Broxton’s opinion and help,
Mrs. Broxtou led in all the social and chureh movements, and half the un-
married men in the county were court- ing Lucetta.”
“That's all so,” said the doctor grave- ly, “but it only goes to prove the mutability of buman affairs.”
Mrs. Govan refused obstinately and always te mount her husband's rhetor- ical ladder. She preferred the safer it lowlier tableland of her own practical reflections.
