A great three-cornered duel’ was! being fought in the North Woods for the possession of the*priccless gem, the Flaming Jewel. It had first been stolen from. the royal casket of the “ COUNTESS OF ESTHONIA by ‘the international thicf. QUINTANA. In Paris, Mike Clinch had stolen the jewel from Qbin- tana and carried it back té“his disreputable hotel at Star Pond, where he hoarded it for the edu- cation of his beautiful step- daughter, > EVE, STRAYER, Then there ar- rived, JAMES’ DARRAGH, under the name of HAL SMITH, who had sworn to re- store the jewel to the now beg- gared countess. Quintana and his gang also. arrive to. regain the stolcn loot. Quintana captures Eve, who is hiding the jewel packet, but she escapes after cruel treatthent. She is brought back: semi-conscious “to — Clinch’s by STATE TROOPER STORMONT.

Clinch swears to wipe out Quintana’s gang, and with them, Kloon and Leverett. CHAPTER II On the edge of Owl Marsh Clinch halted’ in the trail, and, as his men came up, he counted them with a cold eye, “Hore’s the runway and this he hazel" bush is my station,” he s “You fellas do the barkin’, You, Sid Hone, and you, Corny, start drivin’ from the west.

And you, Hal Smith,”—he looked around—“where'n hell be you, Hal?—” Smith came up from the bog's edge. “Send ’em: out,” he said in a low voice. “I've got Jake’s tracks in the bog.” ; Clinch motioned his beaters to their duty. “Twenty minutes,” he reminded Hone, Chase and Blom- mers, “before you start drivin’.” And, to the Hastings boys:' “If you shoot,.aim low for their bellies. Don't leave no blood around. Scrape it up. We bury that we get.” He and Smith: stood: looking after the five slouching figures moving away toward their blind trails. Wheg all had disappeared: ts “Show me Jake’s mark,” he said calmly. Smith led him to the edge of the bog, knelt down, drew aside a branch of witch-hopple. A man’s. footprint was plainly visible on the. mud. “That's Jake,” said Clinch slowly. “I know them half-soled boots o’| his’n.” He lifted another branch. “There’s another man’s track!” “The other is probably Leverctt's, “Likely. He's got thin fect.” “I think I’d better go after them,” said Smith, reflectively. “They'll plug you, you poor jack- ass—two o’‘them like that, and one a-settin’ up to watch out. Hell! Be you tired o’ bed an’ board?” Smith smiled: “Don’t you worry, Mike.” As he shouldered jhis rifle and started into the marsh, Clinch dropped a heavy hand on his shoul. der; but the young man shook it o “Shut up” he said — sharp “You've a private war cn your hands.

Clinch squatted on his run- way, watching the mountain flank with murderous eyes. It was no longer the Flaming Jewel which mat- tered. His master passion ruled him now. Those who had offered vjolence to Eve must be reckone with first of all. The hand that; struck Eve Strayer had offered mor- tal insult to Mike Clinch. ‘As for the third pretender to the Flaming Jewel, Jake Kloon, he was now traveling in a fox’s cirele to- ward Drowned Valley—that shagcy wilderness of slime and tamarack and.depthless bog which touches the northwest base of Star Peak. was not hurrying, having no thought of pursuit.

For Eve Strayer had, never heard | where the packet came from or what it contained. All she knew was that her ‘stepfather had. told°hers that: it ‘belonged to her. And‘'the knowledge left her incurious. t CHAPTER IV i Eve slept the sleep of mental and physical exhaustion. Reaction from ear brings a fatighe more profound than that which follows physical overstrain. But the healthy mind, like the healthy body, disposes very thoroughly of toxies which arise} from terror and exhaustion. The girl slept profoundly, calmly. Her bruised young mind and body left he undisturbed. There was neither: restlessness nor fever. Sleep swept her with is clean, sweet tide, celansing the superb youth and health of her with the most wonder- ful balm in the Djyine: pharmacy. She awoke late in the afternoon, opened her flower-blue eyes, and saw State Trooper Stormont sitting by the window, and gazing out. Perhaps Eve's confused senses mis- took the young man‘foria vision; for. ‘she lay very still, nor’ stirred even} ‘ker little finger. After a while; - Stormont | glanced around at her. ~ A warm, delicate BY CONDO | {IT'S THE 21ST, MY SS THEN THESE Two Xov To MAIL ARG Two WEEKS OLD!!!

And{ the girl gazed back straight into his | eyes—eyes she had so often looked into in her dreams, ‘ i “I’m to cook you an egg and bring you some pie,” he remarked, still smiling. “Did Dad say I am to stay in bed?” “That was my inference, Do you feel very lame and sore?” ‘ “My feet burn.” “You poor kid! . Would you let me look at them? I have a first-| aid packet with me.’ After a moment she nodded and turned her face on the pillow. He drew aside the cover a little, kne!t down, beside the bed. Then he rose and went downstairs to, the kitchen, There, was’ hot wa- ter in the kettle. He fetched it back, bathed her feet, drew out from cut and scratch the flakes of granite-grit end briar-points that still remained there. |, ‘ From his first-aid packet he took a capsule, dissolved it, sterilized the torn skin, then bandaged both feet! with a deliciously cool salve, and drew the sheets into place. Eve had not stirred nor spoken. He washed and dried his hands and came back, drawing his chair nearer to the bedside. / “Sleep, if you feel like it,” he said pleasantly. As she made no sound or move- ment he bent over to see if she had already failen asleep. And noticed that her flushed cheeks were wet with tears. “Are you suffering?” gently. “No... kind. 2.” “Why shouldn’t I be kind?” he said, amused and touched by the girl’s emotion. “I tried to shoot you once. That is why you ought to hate me.” He. began to laugh: “Is that what! you’re thinking about?” “I—can never—forget—” We're quits anyway. Do you remember what I did to | you?” % He was thinking of the handcuffs Then, in her vivid blush he read what she was thinking. And he re- membered his lips on her palms. He, too, now was ‘bushing — bril- liantly at memory of that swift sud- > den rush of romantic tenderness which this girl had witnessed that memorable day on Owl Marsh.
