About that time, & mile and a ha'f to the southward, James Darragh meé out on the rocky and rushing outlet of Star Pond, | « (Over his shoulder was a rifle, and | all around him ran dogs- ful dogs, bullt like foxhounds ‘with the rough, wiry coats of duies, even rougher of ear and tures, He had been seated there for ten minutes, possibly, with his tired dogs ing around him, when just abo: e im he saw a State Trooper emerge from the woods on foot, carrying a rifle over one shoulder. { tJack!" he called in valce.

"Stormont: hodded; looking down at the dogs. "What are ‘they, Jim?" fOtter-hounds,” said Darragh, breed of my own, . . . But that they are capable of hunting, I gues: he added grimly. Stormont's gaze questioned him. '!“\Nell * said Darragh, "I left my two guests at Harrod Place to amuse each other, got out three couple of my otter-hounds and started ‘them-— i hoped and supposed on Quin- a's trail.’” ) “What ‘happéned 7" inquired raont curiously.

A few minutes later, as they came out among the-willows and alders on the northeast side of Star Rond, Stor- mont touched his comrade’s arm. “Look at that enormots dog-otter out there in:fhe lake!” And now the hounds, unleashed, lifted frantic voices. The very sky | seemed full of the discordant tumult; wood and shore reverberated with the volume of convulsive and discordant baying. “Damn it,” said Darragh, dis- gusted, “~—that's what they've been trailing all the while across-woods— that devilish dog-otter yonder.

L and both men caught a glimpse of a large bitch-otter taking to the lake from a ledge of rock just beyond. ‘Well, I'm in for it now,” muttered Darragh, starting along the bank toward Clinch’s Dump, to keep an eye on his dogs, Stormont followed more leisurely. CHAPTER 1V. A few minutes before Darragh and Stormont had come' out on the far- ther edge of Star Pond, Sard, who had heard from Quintana about the big drain pipe which led from Clinch's pantry into the lake, decided to go.in and take a look at it, ’ He had been told all about its uses —how Clinch—in the event of a raid by State Troopers or Government en- forcement agents—could empty his contraband hootch into the lake if necessary—and even could siide a barrel of ale or a keg of rum, intact, into the great tile tunnel, and recover the liquor at his leisure. Also, and grimly, Quintana had ad- mitted that through this drain Eve ‘Strayer and the State Trooper, Stor- lmont. had escaped from Clinch's Dump. 8o new Sard, full of curiosity, went {back into the pantry to look at it for himself. Almost instantly the idea occurred to him to make use of the'drain for his own safety and comfort, Why shouldn’t he sleep in the pan- try, lock the door, and, in case of intrusion—other exits being unavail- |able—why shouldn’t he feel entirely Urlless you see the name ‘“Bayer" on package or on tablets you are not getting the genuine Bayer product prescribed by physicians over twenty- two years and proved safe by millions for colds, headache, toothache, ear- ache, neuralgia, lumbago, rheuma- | DOINGS OF DUFFS } DON'T THINK I'LL BE ABLE TO NAVIGATE IN THIS NEW LONG sK;RTEb DRESS - rLL HAVE TO DEVELOP A NEW TROT TO 'HAVE TO ovT To WAY - NOT! SAY “BAYER” when you buy Aspirin safe with such an avenue of escape open? IFor swimming was Sard's single ac« complishment, He wasn't afrald of the water; he simply couldn't sinik, Bwimming was the only sport he ever had indulged in, He adored it Aud at that instant the heavens' echoed with that awful mult which had first paralyzed, crazed him in the woods, In'the bushes on the lake shore hé saw animals leaping anfl racing, but, in his terror, he did not recognize them for dogs. ‘Then suddenly, he saw.a man, close to 'the house, running: ‘and another man not far behind, That he under- stood, and it electrificd him into action, L 1t was Yoo ‘late to escape from the house now, He understood that in- stantly, He ran back through the dance- hall and dining-room to the pantry; but he dared not let these Intruders hear the noise of hammering. Ungovernable terror’ seized Bard, Scarcely aware what he was about, he selzed the edges of the-big drain-pipe and crowded his obese body into it head first. He was so fat and heavy | that he filled the tile, To start him- sclf dow he pulled with both hlmll and kicked himselt forward, tortoise- | like, dowm the slanting tuihel, stick- ing now and then, dragging hlmself on and downward. There came a hitch somewhere; hll heavy body stiick on the steep incline, Then, as he lifted his bewildered head and strove to peer into the blackness in front, he saw four balls of green fire close to him in darkness. He began to slide at the same in- stant, and flung out both hands to check himself. But his palms slid in the slime and.his body slid after. He shrieked once as his face struck a furry obstruction where four balls of green fire flamed horribly and a fury of murderous teeth tore his face and throat to bloody tatters as he slid lower, lower, settling' through crimson-dyed waters into the ley depths of Star Pond. Stormont, down by the lake, called to Darragh, who appeared on the veranda “Oh, Jim! Both otters crawled into the drain! 1 think your dogs {must have killed one of them under water. There's a big patch of blood spreading off shore.” “Yes,” sald Darragh, ‘something has just been killed, somewhere, . . . Jack!"” “Yes?" “Pull both your guns'and come up here, quick!” (Continued in Our Next Issue) very tu- then Although a great deal of harm is done by certain insects, practically no fruits could be formed without the blossom-pollinating aid 'of others and it is possible that they confer still other benefits of which science does not know. tism, neuritis, and for pain in general.
