At the head of the stairs he re- leased his victim with a low, Sh!" his finger laid against his lips, and giving the house physician a moment to gain his breath, threw an arm about his shoulder, and led him, gtumbling and still purple and gasp- ing, down the steps to the office. Dristow stood on the hearth-rug, ftraightening out his cuffs, and sur- veved Morton reflectively. “*You needn't be afrald of me, Mor- ' ton,” he said earnestly. “I'm only tao grateful to you, too utterly grate- ful,” A’ mhattered faith is not easily re- ‘storéd. Still, Morton remembered, Bristow had fought to save the girl, although his merit was counterbal- _Mecusations. “ “Hew much of the conversation up there did you overhear?” Bristow wd, without' betraying too much _“A—a good deal of it,” Morton stammered. “FEnough to know that JOu were against them.” ‘Bristow rubbed his hands. “Suppose,” he said, “before we go deeply into this matter, you tell me ' §ust what you were doing up there? XAstering, of course. But why?" Merton twiddles his thumbs, and Tooked confused. “I have felt for some days that there was something wrong in' the .matter of this girl. I—I read the papers. I suspected.” Bristow waved his hand, and smiled eommiseratingly. “.“Don’t go on trying to invent. You're not adroit enough. You'd be helping that girl far more by telling me the facts now. Time is flying, and—" Morton jumped. “Time? That's it,” he said. “I mupt go. Don't try to keep me bere, Doctor. 1 must go before they—' He stopped, looking apprehensively at the door. “No need of haste,”” Bristow re- turned equably. ‘‘There'll he nothing done 'for two or three hours yet.” He raiged hi seyes to indicate that he was referring to the two on the floor above, “You must have heard enough to realize that I stand with the person or persons who are trying to rescue Who are these people that you were in conference with dur- ing the two hours that you were away $his noon?” Morton, scrunched up his chair, Balf-yielding to RBristow's influence and yet mindful of his promise fo} XKelsey, shook his head.

All bunk, of course.” Morton was more bewildered than ever. Bristow's story impressed him, “The people I saw today’-—some force stronger than himself seemed drawing the words from him—'were Dr. Kelsey and a man who called himself Juarez Charlie.” Bristow scraped his chair back on the polished floor. 3 Where are they?" ‘At the old Rose house."” Morton had told ‘everything now that he had sworn not to reveal, and he was agonizedly wondering whether he had been wise or merely treach- €rous, A slow, crestfallen flush spread over Bristow's face. Higgins was right; he had muddled. f He nodded at Morton. ‘“When do you get in touch with them again?’ “I ought to be doing it now.” Bristow ignored the hint of restless- ness, “How did Juarez Charlie happen to be there?”’ He wanted all the links in the chain, “I don’t know that, but he was. And they have plenty of money. Oh, come to think of it, he said that he rode down here last night. . (There was something about a hat—a hat that had been bought by Mr, Ranger and ' then exchanged by Miss Copley for one that was to be sent here. That gave him the clue.” “Ah-h"” Bristow leaned back gloat- HEAT STOPS PAIN IN FEW MINUTES lumbago, neuritis, backache, stiff neck, sore muscles, strains, sprains, aching joints, When you are sufferng so you can hardly get around, just try Red Pepper Rub, Nothing has such concentrated, pen- etratng heat as red peppers, and when heat penetrates vight down into pain and congestion relief comes at once, Just as soon as you apply Red Pep- per Rub you feel the tingling heat, In Rheumatism, through and through and the torture is gone.
