      CHAPTER I.

      Sam Lambert had the best clothing store in Medeena County—a corner store on the main street of Medeena opposite the Court House Square.

      Medeena had four clothing stores, not counting The Blue Front, down by the Depot, with its collection of cheap watches in the window, a yellow guitar, two large accordions and a fiddle with a broken E string.

      Sam was broad-gauge in everything he did. He sold his goods at the marked price, for cash only—got a decent profit and told you so.

      Why shouldn’t he? He had a sense of style. He was keenly alive to the artistry of clothes and his enthusiasm was contagious.

      Sam was firmly convinced that a man has to spend money to make money in the
