The girl's eyes Went to the wall close to where Eaton ftood; she seemed to measure with ' Ihem a definite distance from the door And a point shoulder high, and to Resist the Impulse to come over and ! ut her hand upon the spot. As Kaon followed her look, he heard a light and muffled click as If from the 1 fttudy; bat no sound could reach them through the study doors and what be tieard came from the wall Itself. "A safe?" he whispered. * "Yes; Miss Santoine--she's in there. Isn't she?--closed it just now. There are two of them hlddei. behind the books, one on each side of the door." Eaton tapped gently on the wall; the wall was brick; th« safe undoubtedly was backed with steel. "The best way is from inside the room," he concluded. She nodded. "Yes. If you--' "Look out!" * Someone now was coming downit a Ira. The girl had time only to whisper swiftly, "If we don't get a chance to speak again, watch that vase." She pointed to a bronze antique which stood on a table near them. "When I'm sure the agreement is In the house, I'll drop a glove-but ton in that--a black one. If I think Itll be In the safe on the right, white on the left. Now go." Eaton moved quietly on and Into the drawing room. Avery's voice Im mediately afterward was heard; he . was speaking to Miss Davis, whom he -had found In the hallway. Eaton was certain there was no suspicion that he had talked with her there; Indeed, /Avery seemed to suppose that Eaton ;was still In the study with Harriet Santoine. It was her lapse, then, which had let him out and had given him that chance; but it was a lapse. 1 lie discovered, which was not l!kely to favor him again. From that time, while never held strictly in restraint, be found himself always in the sight Of someone. ,>j Eaton let himself think, idly, about Harriet--how strange her life had been--that part of It at least which . was spent, as he had gathered most , of her waking hours of recent years * had been spent, with her father. Strange, almost, as his own life 1 And v what a wonderful girl It had made of her--devei, sweet, lovable, with more than a woman's ordinary cad pacity for devotion and self-sacrifice. But.

CHAPTER *&YY: / '• , The Man From the Train. ||f the supposition that he mi to have less liberty. Eaton proved correct. Harriet Santoine, to whose Impulses had beoi, due his first privileges, showed toward him a irorc constrained attitude the flowing morning. She did not suggest hostility, as Avery constantly did; nor. Indeed, was there any evidence of 'retrogression In her attitude toward him; she seemed merely to be maintaining thr same position; and since this seemed difficult If they were often together, she avoided him. Eaton unders'ot.d that Santoine, steadily Improving but not yet able to leave his bed. had taken up his work again, propped up by pillows; one of the nurses had been dismissed; the other was only upon day duty. But Eaton did not see Santoine at all; and though he learned that Miss Davis or another stenographer, whose name was West, came daily to the house, he never was In a. position again' to encounter any outsider either coining or <roing. There was no longer»room for Raton to doubt that Harriet had the confidence of her father to almost a complete extent. Now that Santoine was ill, she worked with him dally for hours; and Eaton learned that she did the same when he was well. But Avery worked with the blind man too; he, too, was certainly in a confidential capacity. Was It hot probable then that Avery, and not Harriet, WHS entrusted with the secrets of dangerous and ugly matters; or was It possible that this girl, worshiping her father as she did. could know and be sure that, because her father approved these matters, 'they were right? A hundred times a day, as Eaton saw or spoke with the girl or thought of her presence near by, this obsessed him. A score of times during their casual talk upon meeting at meals or elsewhere, he /found himself turned toward some ^question which would aid him In determining what must be the fact; but each time he checked himself, until one morning--It was the fifth after his arrival at Santolne's house--Harriet was taking him for his wait In the garden before the house. She had just told him. at his Inquiry, that her father was very much stronger that morning, and her manner more than ever evidenced her pride in him. They walked on slowly. "1 wish yon could tell me more about yourself, Mr. Eaton." "I wish so too." be safid. "Then why can you not?" She turned to him frankly; he gazed at her a moment and then looked away and shook his head. Did she know all of what was known even under her father's roof; and If she knew all, would she then loathe or defend it? motor sped near, halted and then speeded on again; Eaton, looking up, saw It was a runabout vlth Avery alone in It; evidently, seeing them la th« road, Avery had halted to protest, then thought better of it and gone on* But other motors passed now with people who spoke to Harriet and who stopped to inquire for her father and wish him well. Your father does not seem to be I one of the great men without honor ' his own neighborhood," Eaton said to her after one of these bad halted and gone on. "Everyone who knows Father likes and admires him!" she rejoiced. ' "I don't mean exactly that," Eaton went on. "They must trust him too, in an extraordinary way. His associates must place most complete confidence In him when they leave to him the adjustment of matters such as I understand they do. He tells them what Is just, and they abide by bis decision." Harriet shook her head. "No; it Isn't quite that." she said. "What, then?" , "You are correct In saying that men of the most opposite sorts--and most Irreconcilable to each other -- constantly. place their fate In Father's hand; and when he tells them what th£y must do, they abide by his decision. But he doesn't decide for them what is Just." "I u ic't understand. What doe* he tell them, then?" "He tells them what would be the outcome if ^they fought, who would win and who would lose and by how Edwin Balmei much. And they believe him and abide by his decision without fighting; for he knows; and they know that he ^ knows and la absolutely honest." Eaton was silent for a moment as they walked along. "How can he come to his decision?" be asked at last *How?* "1 mean, much «t the material presented to hW must he documentary." "Much of It is." "Then someone most read It to him." . i ^ J •' "Of course." *; ?; <«• fen ton started tO:^ speak--then refrained. "What Were you going to saj^?" she questioned. "That the person--or persons--who reads the documents to him must occupy an extremely delicate position." "He does. In fact, I think that position Is Father's one nightmare." "Nightmare?" "The person he trustr must not only be absolutely discreet but absolutely honest." "I should think so. If anyone in that position wanted to Use the information brought to your father, he could make himself millions overnight, undoubtedly, and ruin, other men." ' t "And kill Father too,** th» girl added quietly. "Yes," she said as Eaton looked at her. "Father puts nothing above his trust. If that trust were betrayed--whether or not Father were In any way to blame for it-- I think It would kill him-" "So you are the one who Is la that position." "Yes; that Is. I have Seen." "You mean there is another now; that Is, of course, Kir. Avery?" "Yes; here at this bouse Mr. Avery and I, and Mr. Avery at the office. Before Mr. Avery came, I was the only one who helped' heiv at the house." _ ' "When was that?" /' "When Mr. Avery came? About five years ago. Father had an Immense amount of work ct that time. Business conditions were very mucn n "Every One Who Knows Father Likes and Admires Him!" She Rejoiced. unsettled. There was trouble r*: that time between some of the big eastern and big western men, and at the same time the government was prosecuting the trusts. Nobody knew what the outcome of It all would be; many of the bfggest men who consulted Father were like men groping in the dark. I don't suppf>se you would remember the time by what I say; but you would remember It, as nearly everybody else does by this: It was the time of the murder of Mr. Matron." "Yes; 1 remember that," .said Eaton ; "and Mr. Avery came to you at that time?" "Yes; just ad that time 1 was thrown from my horse, and could not do as much as I had been doing, so Mr. Avery was sent to Father." "Then Mr. Avery was reading to him at the time you spoke of--the time of the Latron murder?" "No; Mr. Avery came Just afterward. 1 was reading to him at that time." "The papers ataat have been a good deal for a gtri of eighteen.? "At that time, you mean? They were; but Father dsred trust no one else." "Mr. Avery handles tboae matters now for yonr father?"

'< ___ " ' ••• V * Bwlbrotdei.v Is the art of orttamenting cloth and other materials with the needle. Most of the embroideries made today are usually copies of the ancient ones. Embroidery Is believed to have been applied to skins almost as soon as needle and thong were first employed to join pieces of skins together Into garments. In Lapland the natives embroider their reindeer-skin clothing with a needle of reindeer bone, using reindeer sinew and applique of strips of hide. Travelers say that in Central Africa, among the primitive tribes there, the girts embroider skins with figures of flowers and animals, supplementing the effect with shells and feathers. Among the ancient Greek textiles exhumed from Crimean graves are both tapestries and embroideries mbm preserved In the Hermitage at Petrograd.

Yes; he took'them up at the time I was hurt and so has kept on looking after them; for there has been plenty for me to do without that; and those things have all been more or less sett I eft! now. They have worked themselves out as things do, though they seemed almost unsolvable at the time. One thing that helped in their solution was that Father was able, that time, to urge what was Just, as well as what was advisable." "You mean that in the final settlement of them no one suffered?" "No one, I think--except, of course, poor Mr. Latron; and that vas a private matter not connected In any direct way with the question at issue. Why do you ask all this, Mr, Eaton?" "I was merely interested In you--> In what your work has been with your Father, and what It Is," he answered quietly. * They had been following the edge of the road, she along a path worn in the turf, he on the edge of the road Itself and nearer to the tracks of the motors. Suddenly she cried out and clutched at him. As they had stopped, she had heard the sound of a motor Approaching them rapidly from be-, hind. Except that this car seemed speeding faster than the others, she had paid no attention and had not turned. Instantaneously, as she had cried and pulled upon him, she had realized that ibis car was not passing; It was directly behind and almost upon him. She felt him spring to the side as quickly as be could; but her cry and pull upon him were almost too late; as he leaped, the car struck. The blow was glancing, not direct, and he was off his feet and In motion when the wheel struck; but the car hurled him aside and rolled him over and •over. As she rushed to Eaton, the two men In. the rear seat 'of the car turned their head? and looked bdek, but without checking Its speed or swerving, the car dashed on and disappeared down the roadway. She bent over Eaton and took hold of him. He struggled to bis feet and, dazed, tottered so that she supported him. As the realized that he was not greatly hurt, she stared with horror at the turn In the road yrhere the car had disappeared. "Why, he tried t<* run you down! He meant tot He tried to hart you I" she cried. "No," Eaton denied. "Oh, no, I don't think so. It must have been-- an accident. He was--frightened When he saw what he had done." "It wasn't at all like an accident I* she persisted. "It couldn't have been an accident there and coming up from behind the way he did! No; he meant to do It I Did you see who was in the' car--who was driving?" He turned to her quickly. "Who?" he demanded. "One of the people who' was on the train! The morning Father was hart. Don't yoa remember--a little man, nervous, bat very strong; a man almost like an ape?" H^ shuddered and then controlled himself. "Yea, I remember a fellow the conductor tried to seat me opposfte." "This was the same man!" Eaton shook" his head. "That could hardly be; I think you must be aatataken." "I am not mistaken; It was that manP* I "Still, I thtnk jtm must be," be agafa denied.

What's happened?" "Carelessness," Eaton deprecatedl Got rather In the way of a motor and was knocked over for It." Harriet, did not correct this ta Avery. She went up to her father; she was still trembling, still sick with horror at what she had seen-- an attempt to kill one walking at her side. - She stopped outside her father's door to compose herself; then she went In. The blind man was propped up on his bed with pillows into almost a sitting position; the nurse was with him. "What dtd fva want.

In his familiartty with her tones and every Inflection of her voice, he had sensed already that something unusual had occurred; she repeated, however, her qacatioa as to -what he wanted. "That does not matter now, Bar* rlet. Where have you been?" "1 have been walkUtf wUh Mr. Eaton." T " \ "What happened?" She hesitated. "Mr. Raton waa almost run down by a motorcar."
