After the affair of the auto ban- Jull followed. If you're a sailor you ull followed. If youre a sailor you know what kind of a lull I mean; blue-black clouds down the south- ‘west horizon, the water crinkly, the booms wabbling. Suddenly a series of “accidents” began to happen to Norton. At first he did not give the matter much thought. The safe which fell almost at his feet and crashed through the sidewalk merely induced him to believe he was lucky. At another time an au- tomobile came furiously around a corner while he was crossing the street, and only amazing agility saved him from bodily burt. The car was out of sight when he thought to recall the number. Then came the. jolt in the sub- way. Only a desperate grab by one of the guards saved him from be- ing crushed to death. Even then he thought nothing. But when a new box of cigarets arrived and he tried one and found {t strangely per- fumed, and, upon further analyst: found it to contain a Javanese nar- cotic, a slow but sure death, he be came wide awake enough. They were after him. He began to walk carefully, to keep in public places as often as he possibly could He was not really afraid of death, but he did abhor the thought of its| coming up from behind, Except for the cigarets they were all “ac dents”; he could not thave proved anything before a jury of his inti mate nds. He never entered an elevator without scrupulous care, He never passed under coverings over the sidewalks where construction was going on. Still, careful as he was, death confronted him once more It was his habit to have his coffee and rolls—he rarely ate anything more for his breakfast--set down outside his door every morning. The coffee, being in a silver ther- mos bottle, kept {ts heat for hours, When he took the stopper out and Jecuting Attorney | was r | but five are prowling around after!

Very quietly he set about to mak inquiries, This was really becom-; ing serfous. In the kitchens down- stairs nothing could be learned.| The maid had set the thermos bot-/ tle before the door at 10:30. N ton had opened the door at 1: three hours after. The outlook was not the cheerfulest. He knew per- fectly well why all these things “happened”; he had interfered with the plans of the scoundrels who were making every possible move to kidnap Florence Har- greave. One afternoon he paid Florence a visit. Of course he told her! nothing. They had become secretly | engaged the day after he bad res-| cued her from the auto bandits. They were secretly engaged be chuse Florence wanted it so, For once Jones suspected nothing. Why should he He had _ troubles enough. As a matter of fact, Nor- ton was afraid of Jones. He was afraid of him in the same sense as & boy is afrald of a policeman. | But on this day, when the time came, he accosted the butler and drew him into the pantry. “Jones, they are after me now.” | “You?

Norton thought of Flor- ence and smiled inwardly. Could anybody be in deeper than he was? Once It was on the tip of his tongue to confess his love for Florence, but | the gravity of Jones’ countenance was an obstacle to such move; it} did not invite it To be sure, Jones had no real) authority to say what Florence| should or should not do with her| heart.

Sharp, desperate rogues | on one side, millions on the other, | and yet love could enter the scene serenely, like an actor who had missed his cue and came on too soon. Oddly enough, there wan no real) lovemaking such as you often read| about, A pressure of the hand, a glance from the eye, there was) seldom anything more. Only once —that memorable day on the river road—had he kissed her. No word of love had been spoken on elther side, In that wild moment all econ-| ventionalities had disappeared like | smoke in the wind, There had| been neither past nor future, only the present in which they knew that they loved. With her he was happy, for he had no time to plan over the future.

Cordially, Olga, Countess Perigoff.” Humph! Norton twiddled the note in his fingers and at length rolled it into a ball and threw it into the wastebasket. He, too, made a mistake; he should have kept that note, He dressed, dined, and hurried off to the apartments of the countess. He arrived 10 minutes before Florence and Susan And Jones did some rapid tele- phoning. “How long, how long!” the butler murmured. How long would this strange combat last? The strain was terrific. He slept but little during the nights, for his ears were always waiting for sounds. He had cast the chest tnto the sea, and it would take a dozen expert divers to locate ft.

The next afternoon the countess, having matured her plans against |the happiness of the young girl who trusted her, drew up before the Hargreave place and alighted. Her welcome was the same as ever, and this strengthened her con- fidence, The countess was always gestic- ulating. Her hands fluttered to emphasize her words. And the beautiful diamond solitaire caught the girl's eye. She seized the hand, Haying an affair of her own, it was natural that she should be rested in that of her friend, “I never saw that ring before.” “A gift of yesterday,” The countess assumed a shy air which would have deceived St. Anthony. She twisted the ring on her finger. “Tell me!” erled Florence, “You “No, when your heart {s {nvolved,” Money should not matter As this thought was in accord with her own, Florence nodded her head sagely. “It is nothing serious. fancy.

My heart is a bit weak.” “Don't mention it,” replied the gallant Norton, He was as i{nno- cent as a babe as to what had really taken place. Florence went back home. She wrote a brief note to Norton and inclosed the ring which she had secretly worn attached to a little chain around her neck, When Norton came the next day she refused to see him. It was all over. She never wished to see him again, “He says there has been some cruel mistake,” said Jones, “I saw him with the countess tn his arms, I do not see any cruel mistake in that, I saw him. Tell him so, And add that I never wish to see him again,” hen she ran swiftly to her room, where she broke down and cried bitterly and would not be comforted by Susan, “In heaven's name,” demanded the frantic lover, “what has hap- pened?” The comedy of the whole affair lay in the fact that neither of the land 8 cheapest will get the job, and the sale of labor-power ata low price means heap living, and cheap living means to reduce the standard of life and to be compelled to I cheap, thinly clad and poorly housed, ble to afford the services of the Physician and Dentist.
