The brother came back from the war not a hit the worse elther for the fast- Ing or the fighting, but the chance of army life did not bring him within reach of Clancy's arms for more than a year. Then, after everything else had been said, the soldler let fall the information that he had been obliged to leave his extra clothing. together with most of his worldly goods, at the barracks In Callfornia when he was or- dered to the front and regretfully wish ed he had them now.

"Where did you put the thlogs?" asked Clancy, olive at once, ready to take charge of the matter of getting them back.

"Captain told me to pack my stuff in my company locker, und I did-No. 65, Benicin barracks, Second Infantry storehouse." rattled off the soldler.

"Well, all we have to do is to write out to the man, the janitor, or what you call 'em, who keeps care of the building, aod aak him to send your duds along-eh, as you have need of 'em here. I'll fix It np for yon."

"I dunno," sald the other hesitating. ly; "that wouldn't be quite right. yon writing the letter and all. I'd better ask my captain to write. He'll say "communicate' to the chaps out west. Then It'll all he reg'Inr."

"Oh, well." Clancy sulffed; "that will do, I s'pose. Is your captain a good feller? Will be tend up to It sharp? If not, you'd better let me" ... But the other Interrupted decidedly. He would do things In the right way. und It would be better In the end, he said.

Several months passed. Nothing was heard from Benlcia harracks. Clancy tried to make his brother "punch up" the captain. He even wrote a fevered appeal himself to the man who. he reckoned, must have taken nway those things and sold them, but the soldler would not let the letter he mulled. The brothers nearly split up over this ques- tion, for Cluncy sald he was ashamed that one of his family should have so little "hustle" In him.

"I tell yon it's bo nae to do anything but wnit," said the brother in his stu- pld, firm way. And last week he was proved rleht. A red inked. blue inkred green Inked bundle of poper, all pasted together und strung out with a pinned copy of his letter to bis captain, came to the aoldler. He brought the thing to Clancy at the first opportunity. "Snakes!" said the young man. "Is that quite all? Conversational, ain't
