personal shopping, with an agree-
ment to meet for dinner at one of
"the popular cafes. An hour later,
Yates was at the table of the side-
walk cafe, watching with interest
the continual parade of passersby.
Suddenly, his eyes widened with In-
terest. At the same moment, then
was a startled exclamation from tit*
crowd. ---------#— -rir*--
“Mr. Yates 1”
It' was Zukowski, obviously not
rolling In wealth, a trifle seedy, but
withal, radiant and happy. HI*
aura was that of well-being. He
rushed up to Yates, pumping hie
hand, vigorously.
“I couldn’t believe my eyes at first
—I had to look twice! *v
Yates smiled. “They told me tf f
waited here on this boulevard
everybody I knew would pass by In
twenty-four hours. I've been here
a dosen times and you're the first—*
"What's happened to you?*’ Zu-
kowski still pumped Yates' hand.
"You're another man. ' How long

arm 'Let's *neak away and see him
tomorrow.
"And break hi* heart * Besides
