Their friendship 'ows until Pamela Judson, daugh- -t of Mildred's employer, tries to »ure him away :rom her. Huck Con- or becomes infafuated with Pa- nela and she plays both men. Her hrother, Harold, is in love with Mil- yred. who tries to kgep him from gambling with Hack's crowd. When Stephen continues seeing | Mildred, Pamela has her discharged and alse turns Stephen against her by saying that she i trying to marry !arold tar his money. Bitter at Mil- dred, Stephen permits maneuver him into an engagement when she tells him that is the ouly w2y she can break with Huck. Huck commands Harold to pre- vent Pamela's marriage under fear ! of exposure concerning a forged check. Harold says he can't for Pamela so Huck plans to dispose of Stephen. He has one of his gang frame him for stealing a firm car, 'nd the detective arrests him aflf\r‘\ finding a roll of bills, a gun, and the auto keys which have been planted | in his room. Stephen calls Harold to his cell| and tells his story, asking him to bring Pamela te see him. But she is busy trying to cover up the news or her engagement to a man who has heen arrested and refuses to go near the jail. He spends two gloomy days dcspairing of help when Mildred comes to see him, and promises aid NOW GO ON WITH THESTORY CHAPTER XXX Stephen scarcely could credit Mil. | dred’s statement with much impor- ' tan-~e, especially as she refused to tell him anything more about the “clew.” She had spoken impulsively, want- ing to comfort him. but instantly the perceived that she was being disloyal to one who had given her his confidence. But she meant grant her permission to tell Ste- phen about Hock and the latter's threat to ruin him. If he did not. she would tell anyhow. must firkt® give Harold matum; that was but fair.

He war sticking close to home. having no heart for the society of others. He came down to join her in the lobby and when Mildred told him she wanted to have a serious talk with him they went to a desert- ed reception room, where they could be assured of complete privacy. Harold had an inkling of what was to come, having no doubt thut Mildred had read of Stephen’s ar- rest. He thought it befter to let Mildred have her way with no one about to overhear. *Are you going to let Stephen stay there in that jail without do- ing anything to help him?" she be- gan as soon as they were alone. “How the devil can 1 help him?" Harold retorted. “You know who put him there?"” “You're cragy.” Mildred looked at himn amazement. Then her anger up in @ white heat. “So you're going to sacrifice him fo save yourself." she cried, and the words tlicked at Harcld with the sting of a lash. “Well, if don’t do something I will.
