he might leave the office in charge of his mother for a day or two.
Mrs. Ismond was very happy over Frank's return, and greatly pleased over the recovery of the missing money. She had quite an encouraging report to make concerning orders received during that day and the one preceding.
"Oh, by the way, Frank," she said, suddenly recollecting something, "here is a letter addressed to you marked 'personal.' I found it pushed under the office door this morning."
"It's from Stet," said Frank, glancing at the enclosure, which interested him very much.
"On account of our strained relations," wrote Stet, "being ordered from your premises and kicked out of Haven Bros., I have wormed myself into the confidence of Dale Wacker. He has rented a room in the Main Street Block, and started into the mail order business. An old fellow is sending out circulars for him, and they have got a bunch of printed matter from the Eagle Job Print, and he ordered one thousand watches from the city last night."
