Her father had so*)t Eaton to the country club with Avery; there Avery, plainly, had forced Eaton Into the i>olo Tame. By her father's instructions? Clearly there seemed to have been purpose in what had been done, and purpose which had not been confided to her* self either by her father or Avery. For how could they have suspected Eaton would betray himself In the game unless they had also suspected that he had played polo before? To suspect that, they must at least have some theory as to who Eaton was. But her father had no such theory; he had been expending unavailingly. so far, every effort to ascertain Eaton's connections. So her thoughts led her-- only into deeper and greater perplexity, but with them came sudden--and unaccountable -- resentment against Avery. At seven Harriet went in to dinner with her father. The blind man was alone; he had been awaiting her, and they were served at once. All through the dinner she was nervous and moody; for she knew she was going to do something she had neyer done "before: she 'was going to conceal something from her father. She told of Eaton's reception at the country dub, and of his taking part In the polo practice and playing badly; but of her own Impression that Eaton knew the game and her present conviction that Donald Avery had seen J even) more than that, she said nothing. ( She watched her father's face, but Bhe could see there no consciousnenf that she was omitting anything In mer account. An hour later, when after reading aloud to him for a time, he dismissed ber, she hesitated before going. "You've seen Donald?" she asked. "Yes." "What did he tell you?" "The same as yor have told, though not quite so fully." She was outside the door and to tiie hall before realization came to her that her father's reply could mean only that Donald, like herself, had concealed his discovery of Eaton's ability to play polo. Why Donald had not told, she could not Imagine; the only conclusion she could reach was that Donald's silence in some way lenaced Eaton; for--suddenly now-- came to her what this must mean to Eaton. All that he had been so careful to hide regarding himself and his connections must be obtainable by Avery now, and Avery, for some purpose of his own, was withholding betrayal to make use of it as he might see fit. She moved once more to return to her father; again she stopped; then, swiftly, she turned and went downstairs. She looked hurriedly about for Avery. She did not find him, nor at flmt did she find Eaton either. She discovered him presently In the mHsic room with Blatchford. Blatchford at once excused himself, tired evidently of his task of watching over Eatdh. Harriet caught herself together and controlled herself to her usual manner. MWhat Bhall it be this evening, Mr. Baton?" she asked. "Music, billiards?" "Billiards, if you like," he responded. They went up to the billiard room, and for an hour played steadily; but her mind was not upon the game--nor, •he saw, was his. Finally, as they ended a game, he put his cue back in the rack and faced her. "Miss Santoine," he said, "I want Iks ask a favor." "What Is it?" "I want to go oat--unaccompanied." "Why?" "I wish to speak to a friend who . will be waiting for me." "How do you know?" "He got word to me at the country club today. Excuse me--I did not nean to inform on Mr. Avery; he was really most vigilant I believe he only made one slip." "He was not the only one observing jrou." "I suppose not. In fact, I was certain of it. However, I received a message which was undoubtedly authentic and had not been overseen." "But you were not able to make reply." "I was able to receive all that was necessary." She considered for a moment. "What do you want me to do?" "Either because of my presence or because of what has happened--or perhaps normally--you have at least lour men about the grounds, two of «rhom seem to be constantly on duty ;4'to observe anyone who may approach I wish you to order them to let me pass and go to a place perhaps ten , minutes' walk from here. If you do " §o, I will ^return at the latest within half an hour" (he glanced at his watch) "--to be deflr-lte, before a qoaf- • ter of eleven." "Why should I do this?" I He came close to her and faced her. "What do you think of me now, Miss Bantoine?" "Why--" "You are certain now, are you not, that I had nothing to do with the attack on your father--that is, in any 4>ther connection than that the attack fnlght be meant for me. I denied yesterday that the me» In automobile meant to run me dywn; you did not accept that denial. I may as well admit ! fm jpsc that I know perfectly well they meant to kill me. They are likely to try again to kill me." "We recognize that too," she answered. "The men on watch about the house are warned to. protect yon as well as watch you." "I appreciate that." a "But are they all you have to fear, Mr. Eaton?" She was thinking of Donald Avery. He seemed to recognise what was In her mind; his eyes, as he gazed Intently at her, clouded, then darkened still more with some succeeding thought. "No, not all." "And it will aid you to--to protect yourself if you see your friend tonight?" ' / "Yes." - L "But why should not one of Father's men be with you?" - -"Unless I were alone, my friend would not appear." ' "I see." He moved away from Jier, then came back; the importance to him of what he was asking was very plain to her--he was shaking nervously with it. "Miss Santoine," he said Intently, "you do not think badly of me now. I do not have to doubt that; I can see it; you have wanted me to see it. I ask you to trust me for a few minutes tonight. I cannot tell you whom I wish to see or why, except that the man comes to do me a service an4 to endanger no one--except those trying to Injure me." She herself was trembling with her desire to help him, but recollection of her father held her back; then swiftly" there came to her the thought of Gabriel Warden; because Warden had r "Yes," ne said; and with that permission, he left h«fc <• < Both had spoken so that the man above could not have heard; and Harriet now noticed that, as her companion hurried ahead, he went almost noiselessly. She stood still, shivering a little now in the cold; and she listened, she no longer heard his footsteps. What she had done was done; then Just as she was telling herself that it must be many moments before she would know whether he was coming back, she heard him returning; at some little distance, he spoke her name so as not to frighten her. She knew at once it wa» he, but a change in the tone surprised her. She stepped forward to meet him. "You found your friend?" "Yes."^ "What" did he tell you? I mean what is wrong that you did not expect?" She heard his breath come fast. "Nothing," he denied. "No; you must tell met Otn't yon trust met" "Tnist you!" he cried. He turned to her and seized her hands. "You ask me to--trust you!" l;, "Yes; I've trusted yoti» \Can't you believe as much In me?" "Believe in you. Miss Santoine!" He crushed her fingers in his grasp. "Oh, my God, I wish I could!" "You wish you could?" she echoed. The tone of It struck her like a blow, and she tore her hands away. "What do you mean by that?" He made no reply But stood staring at her through the dark. "We must go back," he said queerly. "You're cold." 1 She did not answer but started back up the path to the house. He seemed to have caught himself together against some Impulse that stirred him strongly. "The man out there who saw us? He will report to your father, Miss Santoine?" he asked unsteadily. "Reports for Father are first made to me." "I see." He did not ask her what she was going to do; If he was assuming that her permission to exceed his set limits bound her not to report to her father, she did not accept that assumption, though she would not report to the blind man tonight, for she knew he must now be asleep. But she felt that Eaton was no longer thinking of this. As they entered the house and he helped her lay off her cape, he suddenly faced her. "We are In a strange relation to each other, Miss Santoine-^stranger than you know," he said unevenly. She waited for him to go on. "When the time comes that you comprehend what our actual relation is, I--I want you to know that I understand that whatever you have done was done because you believed it might bring about the greater good. I--f have seen In you--In your father --only kindness, high honor, sympathy. If I did not know--" She started, gazing at him, what he said had absolutely no meaning for her. "What is It that 'you know?" she demanded. He did not reply; his liaqd went out to hers, seized it, crushed it, and he started away. As he went up the stairs--still, in his absorption, carrying cap and overcoat--she after him in perplexity. stood staring "Ifs All Right, Willis," She Said Qui stly. tried to help him--in some way and for some reason which she did not know--Warden had been killed.. And feeling that in helping him there irthrht be danger to herself, she suddenly apd eagerly welcomed that danger, a made her decision. "You'll promise, Mr. Eaton, not to try to--leave?" "Yes." "Let us go oat," she said-- - She led the way downstairs and. In the hall, picked up a cape; he threw It over her shoulders and brought Ms' overcoat and cap. But in his absorption he forgot to put them on until, as they went out into the garden together, she reminded hirn; then he put on the cap. The night was clear and cool, and no one but themselves seemed to be about the house. "Which way do you want to got" she asked. He turned toward the forested acres of the grounds which ran down to a ravine at the bottom of which little stream trickled toward the lake.: As they approached the side of this ravine, a man appeared and Investigated them. He recognized the girl's figure and halted. It's all right, Willis," she said Quietly. "Yes, ma'am." They passed the man and went down the path into the ravine and np the tiny valley. Eaton halted. "You don't mind waiting here a few moments for'me?" : . "No," she said, *TToo^ return her.e?" ; " CHAPTER XVI The Fight in the Study. Baton dismissed the man \vho had bieen waiting In his rooms for him; he locked the door and carefully drew down all the window shades. Then he put his overcoat, folded as he had been^earrylng it under his arm, on the Writing table in the center of the room, and from its folds and pockets took a "breast-drill" such as iron workers use In drilling steel, an automatic pistol with three clips of cartridges, an electric flashlight and a little bottle of nitroglycerin. He loaded the pistol and put it In his pocket; then he carefully inspected the other things. He raised a shade and window, and sat in the dark. The night was cloudy and very dark. He gazed at the south wing of the house; the windows of the first floor were closed and the curtains drawn; but tonight there was no light in the room. Then in the dark he moved to the table where he had left his overcoat/ and distributed In his pockets and within his clothing the articles he had brought; and n<iw he felt again In the overcoat and brought out a short, strong bar iof steel curved'and flattened at one end;-- a "jimmy" for forcing the windows. \ Eaton slipped off his shoes and went to his room door; he opened the door and found the hall dark and quiet. He stepped out, closing his door carefully behind him, and with great caution he descended^ the stairs. He went to a window in the drawing room which was set in a recess and so placed that it was not visible from other windows in the house. He opened this window and let himself down upon the lawn. He gained the south corner of the wing, unobserved or at least without sign that he had been seen, and went on around it. He stopped at the first high French window on the south. As he tried to slip his Jimmy under the bottom °\>t AFTER SESSION WITH THE DENTIST *- Writer Recalls Some Impressions That 8ome of Us Can 8hudderlngiy indorse. The? only person who seems to pay any attention to the "smile" sign in a dentist's office is the dentist himself. Oddly enough, dental chairs are designed with a view to the patient's comfort. You never realize what a big mouth you have till the dentist begins laying his scaffolding in it. There Is nothing so unnecessary as his preliminary announcement, >'Now, this may hurt a little." The first step in painless extraction is the.injection of the anesthetic Into the gums. The phrase, to take someone's head off, undoubtedly originated with a den tlst's efforts to get the batter stubborn wisdom tootle The sweetest words that ever fell on your ear are: "That will be all for today." Y~ou never had so much fan with a glass of water before. Getting outside, you feel like a" stranger In the world. The worst pain of all comes when you get your bill.--Edmund J. Klefer. In the New York Suh. the sash, the window, to his amasement, opened silently upon its hinges; it had not been locked. The heavy curtains within hung Ju«t In front of him; he put out his hand and parted them. Then he started back in aston* Ishment and crouched close to the ground; inside the room was a man moving about, flashing an electric torch before him and then exploring an Instant In darkness and flashing his torch again. Eaton had not been at all prepared for this; now he knew suddenly that he ought to have been prepared for it. If the man within the room was not the one who had attacked him with the motor, he was closely allied with that man, and what he was after now was the same thing Eaton was after. He drew his pistol, and loosing the safety, he made it ready to fire; with his left hand, he clung to the short, heavy Jimmy. He stepped into the great room through the curtains, and treading noiselessly in his stocking feet, he advanced upon the man, moving forward In each period of darkness between the flashes of the electric torch. Now, at the further side of the room, another electric torch flashed out. There were at least two men In the room, working together--or rather, one was working, the other super* vising; for Eaton heard now a steady, almost Inaudible grinding noise as the second man worked. Eaton halted again and waited; if there were two, there might be others. His pulses were beating faster and hotter, and he felt the blood rushing to his head and his hands growing cold with his excitement; but he was conscious of fio fear. He crouched and crept forward noiselessly aga^n. No other light appeared in the room, hnd there was no sound elsewhere from the darkness; but the man who supervised had moved closer to the other. The grinding noise had stopped; It was' followed by a sharp click; the men, side by side, were bending over something; and the light of the man who had been working, for a fraction of a second shot into the face of the other. He muttered some short, hoarse imprecation, but before Eaton heard the voice, he had stopped as If struck, and his breath had gone from him. His instant's glimpse of that face astounded, stunned, stnpefled him. He could not have seen that rpan! The fact was impossible! He must have been mad; his mind must have become unreliable fo let him even Imagine it. Then came this sound of the voice-- the voice of the man whose face he had seen! It was he! And, In place of the paralysis of the first instant, now a wild, savage throe of passion seized Eaton; his pulses leaped so It seemed they must burst his veins, and he gulped and choked. He had not filled In with Insane fancy the features of the man whom he had seen; the Voice witnessed tod that the man In the dark by the wall was he whom Eaton--if he could have dreamed such a fact as now had been disclosed-- would have circled the world to catch and destroy; yet how with the destruction of that man in his power-- for he had but to aim and < mpty his automatic pistol :*t five paces--such destruction at this moment could not suffice; mere shooting that man would be petty, ineffectual. Eaton's fingers tightened on the handle of his pistol, but he held It now not as a weapon to fire but as a dull weight with which to strike. The grip of his left hand clamped onto the short steePbar, and with Hps parted--breathing once, It seemed, for each heartbeat and yet choking, suffocating--he leaped forward. At the same Instant--so that he could not have been alarmed by Eaton's leap--the man who had been working moved his torch, and the light fell upon Eaton. "Look out!" the man cried In alarm to his companion; with the word the torch vanished. The man toward whom Eaton rushed did not have time to switch off his light; he dropped It Instead; and as Eaton sprang for him, he crouched. Eaton, as he struck forward, found nothing; but below his knees, Eaton felt a man's powerful arms tackling him; as he struggled to free himself, a swift, savage lunge lifted him from his feet; he was thrown and hurled backward. Eaton ducked his head forward and struggled to turn, as he went down, so that a shoulder and not his head or back would strike the floor first. He succeeded in this, though In his effort he dropped the Jimmy. He clung with his right hand to the pistol, and as he struck the floor, the pistol shot ofT; the flash of flame spurted toward the ceiling. Instantly the grip below his knees was loosed; the man who had tackled him and hurled him back had recoiled In the darkness. Eaton got to his feet but crouched and crept about behind a table, aiming his pistol over It In the direction in which lie supposed the other men must be. The sound of the shot had ceased to roar through the room;' the gases from the powder only made the air heavier. The other two men In the room also waited. Invisible and silent. The only light, in the great curtained room, came from the single electric torch lying on the floor. This lighted the legs of a chair, a corner of a desk and a circle of books In the cases on the wall. As Eaton's eyes became more accustomed to the darkness, he could see vague shapes - of furniture. If a man move<J, he might be made out; but If he staj'ed still, probably he would remain Indistinguishable. The other men seemed also to have recognized this; no one moved In the room, and there was complete silence. (TO BE CONTINUED.) : 1 '* ' • , lOme W ell-LikeH After the season has opened, after all of the startling things have been exhibited by both American and French designers, after fashionable women have had a chance to select with care those creations that they consider worthy of their notice, then comes a blending, an amalgamation of the two showings. And the ultimate result Is not always what one might expect or wish It to be, observes a fashion writer in the New York Times. However, there Is usually a large proportion of good sense Incorporated In the union and enough of general good looks to make us all appear well dressed according to popular taste. There are points about the American woman's figure which will not lend themselves _to the lines of French cloths, -l^bey must necessarily be Coat of White Crepe Trimmed With Rose Petals From Own Material. adapted and changed to our own lines and proportions, and while some of the designs are spoiled by the change others seem to take on an added Interest. Then there are our own homegrown varieties, keyed to suit the American woman and no one else on earth. If one of these* can be exclusive enough then It is a find, indeed. Some* times the material makes It distinctive enough. Again, there are little variations in cut which accomplish (he same end. There are all sorts of ways of achieving the goal when the undertaking Is handled by an artist. Straight Lines and Plaits. Even the French designers find that the old standard lines are surviving with a persistence which they might wish otherwise. Plaits, this season, have found a fast place In popular favor. There are whole dresses which are plaited. There are blouses laid in finely placed plaits. There are plaited Inserts and plaited capes and plaited coats. And many of the frocks which are expressive of the season's styles have plaits incorporated In their making, but in such an astute manner that they almost look like flat portions of the gown. Only when any movement of the figure Is shown is there a revelation of the fact that more fullness has been concealed under flat plaits than could possibly be visible at first sight. A dress which is very pleasing shows that type of frock which is made with an underskirt of one sort and an overdress made by the arrangement of applied panels all cut alike and posted at Intervals to simulate a veritable overskirt. In this case the underdress is composed of one of those specially and fancifully woven fabrics that have their coloring of many shades and tones In a weaving that Is unusual enough to make it notable. Over that flat foundation there Is enough of blue serge to establish the frock as one of the blue serge company of the season. The trimming, so far as the skirt Is concerned, lies underneath Instead'of on top, as Is generally the case. Long, Straight Coat Worn. As thQ spring days grow warmer, we see more and more of the long, straight coats upon the streets. Some of these are exquisitely embroidered, others are made of those brocaded stuffs, and still others are covered with machine embroidery which Is more or less beautiful, depending largely upon pattern and execution. Then there are the longer coats made with some attention to Individual de- Blgn and provided with trimmings that make them notable. One of these Is In white for summer wear, made of a heavy white crepe. Its little repeated petals of trimming being made of the selfsame material plcoted arodnd their edges. It is gracefully tied with a bow of the crepe at one side and the skirt of the coat falls into a drapery at that same side, which looks for all the world like the streaming end from the bow at the low waistline. Collars on these longer coats are most Interesting both as to cut and trim-scheme of becomlngness. They are all more or less straight and folded and while some of them are of fur, others are trimmed with stripes of embroidery or with a succession of tucks or with a layer of printed stuff or with silk of some shade that contrasts with the making of the coat. While the coat is straight and scant and slim, the collar and often the cuffs take unto themselves all sorts of widths so that they achieve a fullness and a general width for the coat which gives it style. This coat has accomplished this same end by using wide and gracefully falling revers In connection with the wide, trimmed cuffs. The tailored suits have skirts that are split on one side. Indeed, they are very often real wrap-around skirts that leave an, opening on the left side clear to the waistline, but with so much material left on the under side that they do not flare open. By this method they are kept tight and at the same time they offer all of the comfort and ease that a much wider and perhaps more bulky skirt might do. Jhe Hat of Wider Brim. There are rumors that a hat of wider brim will be more the thing for warmer summer days, and really this Is always the case as the sun shines more bright ly. Therefore the Information can be depended upon. But for these largerbrimmed shapes there will be only little spots of trimming, only combinations of-color that create a subtle effect of trimming all by themselves, The short coats, as the season advances or as the designers advance in their showings for the season become shorter and stralghter. Although they are likely to be embroidered until every Inch of space Is covered, they are showing less and less of trimming or any applied decoration. The hat that goes with this jacket while It is an exaggeration of the mushroom shape with its trimming, none the less Illustrates the fashion. It is made of brown straw to match the binding of the coat and the silk trimming has a lighter tone on the outside with the darker shades used for * facing. Little Change in Ten Years The other day an Interesting woman who keeps what Is known as a specialty shop was heard to give her opinion on the state of dressing as it exists now in America. "Do you realize," she said, "that during the last ten years there has been very little appreciable change in the dressing of the modern American woman? We have changed the length of the skirts, the placing ot the waistline and the cutting and hanging of the sleeves, but for the rest the lines of the gown have remained, In the last analysis, uninterrupted and unchanged." It seemed like a startling statement--too broad to be true--but upon due thought and consideration she was found to be right. Another maker of frocks for smartly dressed women and those, by the way, who have good money to pay for them, said: "I have one model that Is always good from season to season. I find that it goes as it Is, without any change ©r alteration as to general line. The women who have had it one season are pleased and like its effect, so they come back season after season and ask for something like It. My problem is to find new materials, perhaps -new touches of trimming, but I never presume to change the .general lines of that dress. It Is too good as It Is and no change of fashion ever seems to spoil Its charm." ^ JAMES MITCHELL GAINS 20 POUNDS Tanlac Fully Restored Health of ^ f and Wife, Say» "'Farmer. • • T don't wonder at It being praised so highly everywhere," says James Mitchell, prosperous farmer, on Boats 2, Mackinaw, 111.
