Within six weeks he was on the editorial staff of that paper at twenty dollars a week, and he was worth the money.

He was presently called for by some other paper at better wages, but I made him go to the "Post" people and tell them about it.

They stood the raise and kept him.
It was the pleasantest berth he had ever had in his life.

It was an easy berth.

He was in every way comfortable.
