"So, in the matter of this stage

The lawyer shook his head.
"No, there is nothing I can do."
Quickly he added: "Of course, you
oon't doubt my loyalty to you?"
Mr. Jeffries shook his head.
"No, no, Brewster."
The lawyer laughed as he said:
"Right or wrong, you know 'my
untry' that is, my client "tis of
thee."' Turning to Alicia, he added,
laughingly: "That's the painful part
of a lawyer's profession, Mrs. Jeffries.
The client's weakness is the lawyer's
trength. When men hate each other
and rob each other we lawyers don't
pacify them. We dare not, because
that Is our profession. We encour

other for profit If we didn't they'd

Alicia gave a feeble smile.
"Yes," she replied; "I'm afraid w

want to do."

the lawyer, grimly.

CHAPTER XV.
Annie entered the presence of the
famous lawyer pale and III at ease
This sudden summons to Judge
Brewster's private office was bo unex
pected that it came like a shock. For
days she had haunted the premise
ilttlng In the outer office for hours at
a time exposed to the stare and
covert smiles of thoughtless clerks
and office boys. Her requests for an
Interview had been met with curt re
fusals. They either said the Judge
was out of town or else that he was
too busy to be seen. At last, evl
gently acting upon orders, they flat
ly refused to even send in her name
and she had about abandoned hope
when, all at once, a clerk approached
her, and addressing her more politely
than usual, said that the Judge would
see her In a few minutes.
Her heart gave a great throb. Al
most speechless from surprise, she
stammered a faint thanks and braced
herself for the Interview on which so
much depended. For the first time
since the terrible affair had happened,
there was a faint glimmer of hope
ahead. If only she could rush over
to the Tombs and tell Howard the
Joyful news bo he might keep up cour
age! It was eight days now since
Howard's arrest, and the trial would
take place In six weeks. There was
still time to prepare a strong defense
long are you going to continue for-
ing your way into this office?"
'1 didn't force my way in," she said,
quietly, t man i expect 10 come in.
The clerk said you wanted to see me."
The lawyer frowned and scrutinized
er closely. After a pause, he said:
'I want to tell you for the fiftieth
tlm I can do nothing for you."
"Fifty?" she echoed. "Fifty did you
suy? Really, It doesn t seem that
much."
Judse Brewster looked at her quick
ly to see if she was laughing at him.
Almost peevishly, he said:
For the last time, I repeat I can
do nothing for you."
"Not the last time, Judge." she re-
oiled, slicking her head. "I shall
come agala to-morrow."
The lawyer swung around In hit
chair with Indignation.
"You will?"
Annie nodded.
"Yes, sir," she said, quietly.
"You're determined to force your
way In here?" exclaimed the lawyer.
"Yes, sir."
The Judge banged the desk with his
fiat.
But I won't allow It! I have some
thing to say, you know! I can't per
mit, tbia to go on. I' reuresent niv
client, Mr. Howard Jeffries, Sr., and
be won't consent to my taking up
your husband's case."
There was a shade of sarcasm in
Annnie's voice as she asked calmly:
Can't you do It without his con
sent?"
The lawyer looked at her grimly.
"I can," he blurted out, "but I
won't."
Her eyes flashed as she replied
quickly.
"Well, you ought to"
The lawyer looked up In amaze
ment. "What do you mean?" he demanded.
"It's your duty to do It," she said,
quietly. "Your duty to hla son, to me,
and to Mr. Jeffries himself. Why, he s
so eaten up with his family pride and
false principles that he can't see the

She nodded.
"That's it exactly." she said.
The lawyer gasped.
"Well, I must say you you you're
very brave."
Annie shook her head.
"No. I'm not," she said, earnestly.
"I'm an awful coward, but I'm fight
ing for him. Howard Jeffries lifted
me up when I was way down in the
world. He gave me his name. He
gave me all he had, to make me a
better woman, and I'm grateful. Why,

will lick the hand that feeds him.
"Hut my iaiuer was ant nam, judge.

The lawyer looked at her fixedly
without speaking. Their eyes met,
and the silence continued until It be
came embarrassing. Judge Brewster
shook his head.
"It's too bad. I'm sorry for you,
really, I "
Annie laughed, and he asked:

"There's only one Judge Brewster,"
"Oot me already?" he exclaimed.
"What do you mean by that?"
Annie returned his angry look with
the utmost calm. She was playing
her cards well, and she knew It. She
had hit the old man la a sensitive
place. Quietly, she went on:
"You'd say 'yes' In a minute if It

I'm sure of It," aha replied, confi

afraid of him."
Judge Brewster laughed heartily,
"Afraid of him?" he echoed.
"It Isn't so funny," she went on.
"You're afraid of opposing him. I'm
not surprised. I'm afraid of him myself."
The lawyer looked at her In
amused kind of way.
"Then why do you oppose him
everything?" he demanded.
Annie laughed as she replied:
"That's the only way I can get his
attention. Why, when he met me out
there to-day he actually looked at me.
For the first time In his life he reo
ognlzed that he has a daughter-in-law.
He looked at me and I'm not sure,
but I think he wanted to bow to me.
He's kind of beginning to sit up and
take notice."
Judge Brewster frowned. He did
not like the Insinuation that he was
afraid to do the right thing because
it might Interfere with bis emolu
ments. Yet secretly, he had to ad
mit to himself that she had almost
guessed right Now he came to think
of It, he had taken this stand In the
matter, because be knew that any
otner course would displease his
wealthy client. After all, was he do
ing right? Was he acting In conform
ance with his professional oath? Was
he not letting his material Interests
interfere with his duty? He was sk
lent for several minutes, and then, in
an absent-minded kind of way, he
turned to his visitor.
"So you think I'm afraid of him, do
you?"
"I'm sure of it," she, said, quickly.

Judge Brewster lapsed Into silence,
and there followed a perfect quiet,
broken only by the suppressed chatter
of the clerks and clicking of the type
writers In the outer office. Annie
watched him closely, wondering what
was passing in his mind, fearing In
her heart that she might have preju
diced hlin against her huHband only
the more. Suddenly he turned on
her.
"Mrs. Jeffries, how do you know
that your husband did not kill Robert
Underwood?"
"I know It," she said, confidently.
"Yes," persisted the Judge, "but how
do you know it?"
Annie looked steadily at him, and
then she said solemnly:

"Of course," Be stammered, "you

"Of course," she cried. Rising
from her chair, ahe shrugged her
shoulders, and said:
"Oh, well, this la not my lucky day,
They wouldn't let me into the prison
to see Howard today. Capt Clinton
doesn't like me. He has always tried
to prevent my seeing Howard, but
I'll see him to-morrow, captain or no

that!"
The lawyer looked up at her.
"Poor girl you are having a hard

"Things have been better," she re
piled, with a tremor In her voice
"Howard and I were very happy when
we first" A sob choked her utter

"Here, I must keep off that subject'
"Why do you laugh?" demanded
the lawyer.
Already hysterical, Annie had great
difficulty in keeping back her tears
"Well, if I don't laugh," she sobbed
"I'll cry; and as I don't want to cry-

Judge Brewster laughed outright.

asked:
"Haven't you any relatives to whom

She shook her head.
"No." she said, sadly. "My father

"Yes, yes, I know," replied the
Judge, hastily. "I got your family his

She smiled sadly.

around.
"Well, you have your own troubles,
Judge. I'll go now, but I'll come again
to-morrow. Perhaps you'll have bet

The lawyer waved her back to her
seat with a commanding gesture Bhe
could not resist. There was deter
mination around hla mouth; In his
face was an expression she had not
seen there before.
"Sit down again for a moment," he
said, sharply. "I want to ask you a
question. How do you account for
Howard's confessing to the shooting?"
"I don't account for it," she replied,
as she resumed her seat. "He saya he
didn't confess. I dou't believe he
did."
"But three witnesses"
"Who are the witnesses?" she Inter
rupted, contemptuously. "P.ollcemen!"
"Thai makes no difference," He ia.
"He made a confession and signed "
Annla leaned forward. What did
God, but I can't thls queBu0n mean? Was the Judge
becoming interested after all? Her
heart gave a leap aa she answered
eagerly
"He confessed against his will. I
mean he didn't know what he was
doing at the time. I've had a talk
with the physician who was called In
