To his home she had taken all the good tastes and good influences of her girlhood home and training. They had every promise of happiness and prosperity. It all ended in tragedy. Entirely unknown to her he wasa secret drinker. That shatter- ed his business prospects, destroyed his home, and sent him out as a vaga- bond -into the world.- - ` i That woman was the wifeof the pri- soner in the Manitoba Jail. and her four children were his children. Although his crimes had destroyed her home and happiness, they `had not destroyed her love. He had been years away from her. Yet she never forgot. To him in his im- prisonment she wrote the tenderest and most encouraging, pleading letters. When his term was over. _she had a good suit of clothes and every -little re- quisite necessary for him to start out in life again. A sympathetic friend who acted for both had anosition a- waiting him._a boarding-house engaged for him, and even received his pay. banked his money and paid his bills to save` him from the old temptation when he might have a roll in his pocket.

He was a university man of ex- ceptional abilities and insinuating ad- .y dress. Drink had made him a scoun- drel and a. criminal. He` had already served a. term in a penitentiary as well as several prison sentences. But neither . drink, nor jail sentences". nor peniten- tiary term could `blot out of his mind; the high estatefrom which he had fall- r en nor the goodness and gladness of life which he had lost.
