PART I

MY HOTEL DAYS

"Here I am back again, Ellis, my dear boy!" I said to my clerk in the Central House, as comfortable and inviting a country hostelry as the average man of travel would want to make an occasional visit to, if I do say it myself.

"Glad of it, Mr. White," returned Ellis Merrill, as he reciprocated my hearty hand-grasp. He had been with me in the hotel business for some time, and I rather fancied him. And he was a most trustworthy young man too.

I glanced at the register on the desk, as any hotel proprietor is apt to do after several days' absence.

"Ah," remarked I, as my eyes fell on two names--"Wyckoff and Cummings. They came yesterday. Are they together?"

"Yes, Mr. White; and they seemed to be mighty well stocked with cash. Up to date they've been very prompt in paying their bills; in fact, have paid for everything in advance."

I glanced over a file of business papers. Then I said: "It seems they've hired one of our best teams for three days, paid for it, and will return to-morrow. That's good business, Ellis."

"Right you are, sir."
