"Right here--put her there!" and Butch emerged from the bedroom with hand outstretched. "Glad to see you, fellow--you, too, Janet, Ade~ fside tells me you've been A-1 com- pany for her while I was gone." | Janet shook hands with him, won- dering as she did so at Adelaide's pile face and Butch"s nervous man- ner. "Have a good trip?' Jimmy asked when they were settled around the living-room windows with drinks in front of them. "Oh, pretty good, ran into a little trouble, though, a couple of days back and thought I'd come home for @ spell--see if the old lady was tired of me yet." He grinned at Adelaide, then moved to the window and peer- ed down into the street below. "Don't Butch," Adelaide said nery- ously, "let me watch." "Addie thinks the cops are after me," Butch explained laughing and sinking into a deep chair, "All right hong, you stand guard, I'm pretty tired, for a fact--" Adelaide moved to the window and Janet felt apprehension seize her. hy were Butch and Adelaide so nervous? Why did they fear? It wis like sitting on top of an active vbleano to be here in the room with them, Fear filled the room, trouble furked in the corners. Something dreadful was going to happen. She wished Jimmy would go. She didn't sant him mixed up in any of Butch's difficulties, Butch tried to make conversation, "Addie tells me you had a heavy swell on your hands while I was gone and then ditched him, Janet." anet smiled, "You mean Mr. Westlak " 2. The "telephone rang. Every one i d. "You answer it, Janet," Adelaide ) ed... " any one wants teh or me, tell 'em we're not here. "Ill answer it," Jimmy said, get- to hig feet. *No," Butch glared at them all, "no orie's gonna answer it, Nobody's home here tonight, see?" Janet shrank back in her chair Jimmy lighted a cigarette and in- ti it ring this time. By Barbara Webb Copysight by Publis Ledger quired of Butch, "Sure you're not making a mistake, old man?" y "1 don't know," Butch, groaned, burying -his head in his hands, "Let If it rings again you answer it and tell 'em I'm in Africa if any one asks for me." For five long minutes the telephone rang and rang and rang, rang until their nerves were gfasping and on edge. Janet wondered where the servants were, and as though in an- swer to her thoughts Adelaide said: "I sent Anna and Jackson out' when Buteh came in -- he got herg just after you and Jimmy left -- 1 told them to go home for the night, so they won't be back." With a last little gurgle the tele- hone ceased ripging and every one freathed a sigh of relief." ' "Glad that's over," Butch said. "Come on, let's do something--play poker or shake Sicewanything except sit here looking like a funeral." | They set up the card table, glad of anything to occupy them. Under cover of the bustle Janet whispered to Jimmy; "Why don't you go home, Jimmy?" "Not until I'm sure everything's O. K. here, honey," he answered her. Butch produced a pair of dice and they settled themselves to shoot crap for poker chips. On the second roll the telephone began again. { "I'm going to answer it this time," Janet said decidedly, "I can't stand | hearing it ring that way and neither can anybody else, if you ask me." Jimmy stopped her, "I'll attend to this--it takes a. man's quick wits to fence over the phone," and he grin- ned at them reassuringly. "Hello--yes--just a minute, I'll call her. It's for you, Jahet. "The Mitten" Butch laugher aloud, "All that agony because Janet's boy friend wants to chin with her, Come on, Jimmy, roll a seven--eight's your point and you can't make it--you can't make eight--ah, there she is, seven, My dice, Watch me roll a natural. Janet heard his booming voice as a background to her conversation, "Yes this 1s Janet--no--F can't see you to- morrow, I'm going to the country 'to spend the rest of my vacation with my father and mother. Nol won't change my mind--I couldn't--yes, I'm sorry, truly sorry, 1 see. Yes, I'm sure she would, just a minute and I'll ask Jimmy, her brother--" She turned to the card table, "It's Mr. Westlake calling and he wants to know if Mildred would take din- ner with him tomorrow night?" "Tell him to call her up and ask her," Jimmy said, "she liked him she'd probably get a great kick out of having him ask her to go out with him." Janet turned back to the telephone, "Jimmy thinks she'd be delighted, All right. Good-by, Mr, Westlake." There was a quiet finality in her "Good-by, Mr. Westlake," that pleased Jimmy. He smiled at her when shesgame back to the table and laughed When Butch remarked, "He got the mitten plenty, didn't he?" Presently Jimpmy left the game and strolled to the window. He came back with a puzzled éxpression on his forehead. "Is there any chance that a low-slung dark car 'that's parked down in front means mis- chief, Butch?" Butch sprang to his feet, supset- ting the table as he cried, "They're here!" He darted toward the window, but Jimmy stopped him. "Steady there," he advised. "Lights are on up here, you know, no use in making a target of yourself." utch stopped in his tracks and Adelaide clung to him sobbing. "M's the Keller gang,' he said. "Take another look at the car, Jimmy, Be careful, no use in your stopping their bullets." ! : 1 Janet's. eves grew wide and she wanted to cling to Jimmy as Adelaide was clinging to Butch.

But shook himself free {rom Adelaide's arms and strode to Jim- my's side. "Yeah---that's the gang, the dirty--" he added a stream of vile words and Jimmy cocked an eye- brow at Janet as though "to say, "Never mind, honey, he's just letting off steam." The Knock at the Door Butch concluded his profane de- scription of the Keller gang and turned back to the room, "I feel better," he announced, "now that I've got that off my chests Now look here Jimmy you'd better take Janet and skip out.

"But 1 haven't any place to go," Janet objected, "and besides I don't | want to leave Adelaide here alone if there's going to be trouble" "She' ain't alone, Janet," Butch said good naturedly, "her old man's gonna take care of her, You better go down to that hotel where Addie and I stayed when we was first mar- ried then--" i "Why not go over to Mildred's studio for the night?" Jimmy asked. "I'm sure she can put you up. She has a daybed in the studio, I've often slept on it. And then you can come back tomorrow when Butch's enemies have decided he's too tough a customer for them to lay hands "That's the ticket," "Butch cried heartily, "Addie and I will have a lot of fun being alone tonight. Then if there's any trouble in the night our friends won't be mixed up in ite" Jangt agreed and went to get her hat. They were in the opudst of leave-taking when Adelaide clutched Butch by the arm. "Listen!" she whispered, "Listen!" With one accord they stopped talk- ing, stopped breathing, stood in ter- ror-stricken silence. Rap, tap tap. Very softly very ingistently the - knocking sounded. Then the doorknob some onc strained against the panel- ing. Then a voice, not loud, but full of authority.

STANDARD MINING BXCHANGE Toronto, Feb, 10,.--An apathetic tone marked trading on the princi- | pal stoek markets today, and espec- {1ally on the Standard Mining Ex- change, where the price rangé was mixed and sales light, Public in- | terest in mining shares is appar- ently dormant, if this morning's | trend may be taken as a criterion.
