nermtin's office.
CHAPTER XIV.—Continued.
Rehind her the door closed softly;
and there followed a thud as ;< bolt
was shot. An instant later Anisty
caught her by the arm and, roughly
now and without wasting speech, hur
ried her into the next room. Then,
releasing her, he turned up the lights
end. passing to the windows, threw
two or three of them wide; for the
air in ihe room was stale and lifeless.
• And now’,” said the criminal in a
tone of satisfaction, ' now we can laik
business, my dear.”
He removed his overcoat and hat,
throwing them over the back of a con
venient chair, drew his fingers
thoughtfully across his chin, and,
standing at a little distance, regarded
the girl with a shadow of a saturnine
smiie softening the hard line of his
lips.
She stood where he had left her, as
if volition was no longer hers. Her
arms hung slack at her sides and she
was swaying a trifle, her face vacant,
eyes blank; very near the breaking
down point.
The man was not without percep
tion; and recognized her state—one
in which, he felt assured, lie could get
very little out cf her. She must be
strengthened and revived beford she
would or could respond to the direct
catechism he had in store for her. in
his own interest, therefore, more than
through any yielding to motives of
pity and compassion, he piloted her lo
s chair bv a window and brought her
a glass of clear cold water from the
filter in the adjoining room.
The cold, fresh breeze blowing in
her face proved wonderfully invigorat
ing. She let her head sink back upon
the cushions of the easy, comfortatdc
leather chair and drank in the clean
air in great deep draughts, with a
sense e T renew ing vigor, both bodily
and spiritual. The water helped, too;
she dabbled the tip of a ridiculously
small handkerchief in it and bathed
her throbbing temples. The while,
Anisty stood over her, waiting with
discrimination if with scant patience.
What was to come she neither knew
nor greatly eared; but, with an in
stinctive desire to postpone the inevit
bte moment of trial, she simulated
eadly languor for some moments aft
becoming conscious of her position;
and lay passive. long Ia-shes all but
touching her cheeks—in which now a
taint rotor was growing—gaze wander
ing at random out orov a dreary wil
derness of flat rectangular roofs, livid
in the moonlight, broken by long,
straight clefts of darkness in whose
depths lights gleamed-faintly. Kp.r in
the south the sky came down purple
and black to the horizon, where a sil
ver spark glittered like a low-hung
star—the torch of Liberty.
I think,'’ Anisty's clear-cut tones,
incisive as a razor edge, crossed the
listless trend of her thoughts, "i think
we will now get down to business, my
lady!”
She lifted Iter laches, meeting his
masterful stare w ith a look of calm in
quiry. "Weil?”
"So you’re better now? Possibly it
was a mistake to give you that rest,
my lady. Still, when one's a gentle
man-cracksman—1" Ho chuckled un
pleasantly, not troubling to finish his
sentence.
"Well? he mocked, seating himself
easily upon an adjacent table. "We're
! here at last, where we'll suffer no in
terruptions to our little council of war.
Beyond the watchman, there's prob
ably not another soul in the building;
and from that window there if is a
straight drop of 24 s’ories to Broad
way. while I'm between you and the
door. So you may be resigned to stay
here until I get ready to let you go.
If you scream for help, no one will
hear you.”
"Very well,” she assented mechanic
ally, turning her head away with a
Oliver of disgust. "What is it you
want?”
"The jewels." he said, bluntly. “You
| might have guessed that.”
# "1 did—”
"And have saved yourself and me
I considerable trouble by speaking ten
minutes ago.”
"Yes,” she agreed, abstractedly.
"Now ” he continued, with a hint of
anger in his voice, "you are going to
tell.”
I She shook her head slightly.
“Oil. but you are, my lady." And
his tone rasped, quickened with the
latent brutality of the natural crim
inal. “And 1 know that you'll not force
me to extreme measures. It wouldn't
lie pleasant for you, you know; and
I premise you I shall stop at nothing
whatever to make you speak."
No answer; in absolute indifference,
she felt, lay her strongest weapon. She
must keep calm and self-possessed, re
fusing to be terrified into a quick and
thoughtless answer.
"This afternoon.” he said, harshly,
"you stole from me the Maitland
jewels. Where are they?”
“i shall not tell.”
He bent swiftly forward and took
one of her hands in his. instinctively
she clenched it; and he wrapped hit
strong hard fingers around the small
white fist, then deliberately inserted
a hard finger joint between her sec
ond and third knuckles, slowly in
creasing the pressure. And watched
with absolute indifference the lines cf
agony grave themselves upon her
smooth unwrinkied forehead, and the
color leave her cheeks, as the pain
grew too exquisite. Then, suddenly dis
continuing the pressure, but retain
ing her hand, he laughed shortly.
“Will you speak, my lady, or will
you have more?"
“Don't,” she gasped, “please—"
“Where are the jewels? Will you?”
“No.”
“Have you given them to Maitland?”
"No.”
"Where are they?”
"I dent know.’’
"Stop that nonsense unless— Where
did you leave them?"
"I won't tell—1 won't. Ah, please,
please' ”
"Tell me!”
"Never. Ah-h!"
An abrupt and resounding hammer
ing at the outer door forced him to
leave off. He dropped her hand with
an oath and springing to his feet drew
his revolver; then, with a glance at
the girl, who was silently weeping,
tears of pain rolling down her cheeks,
mouth set in a thin pare line of de
termination. strode out and shut the
door after him.
As it closed the girl leaped to her j
feet, maddened with torture, wild eves
eastirg about the room for a weapon
of some sort, of offense or defense; for
she could not have endured the tor
ture an instant longer. If forced to it.
to fight, fight she would. If only she had
some'hing, a stick of wood, to defend
herself with. Rut there was nothing,
nothing at all.
The room was a typical office, well
but severely furnished. The rug that
covered the tile floor was of rich
quality and rare design. The neutral
tinted walls were bare, but for a
couple of steel engravings in heavy
wooden frames. There were three
heavily upholstered leather arm-chairs
and one; revolving desk-chair; a toll
top desk, against the partition wall,
a wf.ste-paper basket, and a fiat-topped
desk, or table. And that was all.
Or not quite all, else the office equip
ment had not been complete. There
was the telephone!
But he would hear! Or was the par
tition sound-proof?
As if in contradiction of the sugges
tion. there came to her ears very clear
ly the sound of the hall door creaking
on Ms hinges, and then a man's voice,
shrill with anger and anxiety.
“You fool! Do you want to ruin
us both? What do you mean—"
The door crashed to, interrupting
the protest and drowning Anisty's
reply.
"1 was passing," the new voire took
up its plaintive remonstrance, "and
the watchman railed me in and said
that you were telephoning for me—"
' Damn the interfering fool!" inter
rupted Anisty.
"Hut what's this insanity, Anisty?
What's this about a woman? What—”
The new-comer's tones ascended a high
scale of fright and rage.
"Dower your voice, you ass!" the
burglar responded, sternly. "And—”
He took his own advice; and for a
little time the conference was con
ducted in guarded tones that did not
penetrate the dividing wall save as a
deep rumbling alternating with an im
passioned squeak.
Hut long ere this had come to pass
the girl was risking all at the tele
phone. Receiver to ear she was im
ploring central to connect her with
Ninety-eight-nine Madison. If only she
might get Maitland, tell him where the
jewels were hidden, warn him to re
move them—then she could escape
further suffering by open confession.
"What number?” came central's lan
guid query, after a space. "Did you
[ siij nine-ought-nine-right?"
"No, no, central. Xine-o-eight-nine
J.Madison, picas*, and hurry—hurry!"
“Ah, I'm ringin’ 'em. They ain't
answered yet. Gimme time. There
they are. Go ahead."
"Hello, hello!"
"Pwhat is ut?”
Her heart sank: O’Hagan's voice
meant that Maitland was out.
"Oilagan—is that you? Tell Mr.
Maitland—”
"He's sawn out for the noight an'—”
"Teii him, please—"
“Hut lie’s out. Ring up in the
utarnin'.” '
"Hut ,can't you take this message
for him'.' Please—”
The door was suddenly jerked open
and Anisty leaped into the room, face
white with passion. Terrified, the
girl sprang from the desk, carrying the
instrument with her. placing the re
volving chair between her and her
enemy.
"The brass bowl, pit ase—tell him
that." she cried clearly into the re
ceiver.
And Anisty was upon her, striking
the telephone from her grasp with
one swift hlow and seizing her savage
ly by the wrist. As the instrument,
clattered and pounded on the floor she
was .sent reeling and staggering half
way across the room.
As she brought tip against the flat
topped desk, catching its edge and
saving herself a fall, the burglar
caught up the telephone.
"Who is that?" he shouted, impera
tively, into the transmitter.
Whatever the reply, it seemed to
please hint. His brows cleared, tlip
wrath that had made his face almost
unrecognizable subsided; he even
smiled. And the girl trembled, know
ing That he had solved her secret; for
she had hoped against hope that the
only words he could have heard her
speek would have had too cryptic a
significance for his comprehension.
As, slowly and composedly, be re
placed the receiver on its hook and
returned the instrument to the desk,
a short and.rotund figure of a man, in
rumpled evening dress and wearing a
wilted collar, hopped excitedly into the
room, cast at the gild one terrified
glance out of eyes that glittered With
excitement like black diamonds, set
in a face the hue of yeast, and
clutched the burglar’s arm.
"Oh. Anisty, Anisty!” he cried,
piteously. "What is it? What is it?
Ted me!”
' It’s all right,” returned the burglar. I
"Don't you worry, little man. Pull ;
yourself together.” And laughed.
"But what—what—’’ stammered the
other.
"Only (hat she’s given herself away,”
chuckled Anisty; "beautifully and
completely. 'The brass bowl,' says she
—thinking I never saw one on Mait
land's desk!—and O Hagan. and who
the divvie are von?' says the man on
the other end of the wire, when 1 ask
who he is.”
"And? And?” pleaded the little
man, dancing with worry.
"And it means that my lady here re- j
turned the jewels to Maitland by hid
ing them under a brass ash-receiver on
Irs desk—ass that 1 was not to know!
You are 'cute, my lady!" with an
ironic salute to the girl, “hut you've
met your match in Anisty."
"And,” demanded the other as the
burglar snatched up his hat and coat,
"what, will you do. Anisty?”
"Do?” — contemptuously. "Why, j
what is there to do but go and get
them? We've risked ’ too much and
made New York too hot for the two
of us, my dear sir, to pet out of the
game without the profits.”
"But I beg of you—"
“You needn't"—grimly, ‘it won’t
bring you in any money.”
"But Maitland—”
the
"Is out. O'Hasan answered
'phone. Don't you understand?”
"Hut he may return!”
"That's his lookout. I'm sorry for
him if he does." Anisty produced the
revolver from his pocket, and twirled
the cylinder significantly. "I owe Mr.
Maitland something,” he said, nodding
to the white-faced girl by the table,
"and I shouldn't he sorry to—”
"And what," broke in the new-comer,
"what am I going to do meanwhile?”
"Devil the hit I care! Stay here
and keep this impetuous female from
calling up police headquarters, for a
i good guess. Speaking of which. I think
[ we had best settle ihis telephone busi
ness once and for all.”
The burglar turned again to the
desk and began to work over the in
strument with a small screw-driver
which he produced from his coat
pocket, talking the while.

man, is for you to

bleating and fidgeting; and the look
clicked.
She was alone—utterly and forlorn
ly alone—and had lost—lost all. all
that, she had prized and hoped to win,
even—even him.
She raised fluttering, impotent white
hands to her temples, trying to collect
herself.

Late Hours for Rising in England.
There is one signal disadvantage in
London—and, indeed, in English life,
for the practice apparently embraces
the entire country—and this is the ap
pallingly late hours for rising. Every
where is nine o'clock the breakfast
hour; nothing, so to speak. Is open till
ten o'clock, and this absolute loss of
all the morning makes a great dif
ference if one has anything to do. On
the continent one may always have
breakfast by seven o'clock, as in our
own country; but the universal late
breakfast here, with luncheon at from
1 :o0 to two and dinner at eight or nine
o'clock, makes conditions difficult for
those accustomed to earlier hours.
Physicians Recommend Castoria
ASTORIA. has mot with pronounced favor on the part of physicians, pharma
^ ceutical societies and medical authorities. It is used by physicians with,
results most gratifying. Hie extended use of Castoria is unquestionably the
result of three facts: /’/>*#—The indisputable evidence that it is harmless:
'That it not only allays stomach pains and quiets the nerves, but assimi
lates the food: It is an agreeable and perfect substitute for Castor OiL
It is absolutely safe. It does not contain any Opium, Morphine, or other narcotic
and does not stupefy. It is unlike Soothing Syrups, Bateman’s Drops, Godfrey’s
Cordial, etc. This is a good deal for a Medical Journal to say. Our duty, how
ever, is to expose danger and record the means of advancing health. The day
for poisoning innocent children through greed or ignorance ought to end. To
our knowledge, Castoria is a remedy which produces composure and health, by
regulating the system—not by stupefying it—and our readers are entitled to
the information.—Hall’s Journal of Health,
Letters from Prominent Physicians
addressed to Chas. H. Fletcher.
Dr. B. Halstead Scott, of Chicago, Ills., says: “I have prescribed your
Castoria often for infants during xny practice, and find it very satisfactory.”
Dr. William Belmont, of Cleveland, Ohio, says: “Your Castoria stands
first in its class. In my thirty years of practice I can say I never have
found anything that so filled the place.”
Dr. J. II. Taft, of Brooklyn, N. Y., says: “I have used your Castoria and
found it an excellent remedy in my household and private practice for
many years. The formula is excellent.’'
Dr. It. J. Hamlen, of Detroit, Mich., says: "I prescribe your Castoria
extensively, as I have never found anything to equal It for children's
troubles. I am aware that there are imitations in the field, but I always
ese that my patients get Fletcher’s.”
Dr.Wm. J McCrann, of Omaha, Neb., says: “As the father of thirteen
children I certainly know something about your great medicine, and aside
from my own family experience I have in my years of practice found Cas
toria a popular and efficient remedy in almost every home.”
Dr. J. R. Clausen, of Philadelphia, Fa., says: “The name that your Cas
toria has made for itself in the tens of thousands of homes blessed by the
presence of children, scarcely needs to be supplemented by the endorse
ment of the medical profession, but I, for one, most heartily endorse it and
believe it an excellent remedy.”
Dr. R. M. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo., says: “Physicians generally do not
prescribe proprietary preparations, but in the case of Castoria my experi
ence, like that of many other physicians, has taught me to make an ex
ception. 1 prescribe your Castoria in my practice because I have found it
to be a thoroughly reliable remedy for children’s complaints. Any physi
cian who has raised a family, as I bs.ve, will join me in heartiest recom
mendation of Castoria.”

pathetic neighbor what the trouble
with him was. "Doctors," she replied,
sadly. “No, he hasn't come into a for

tells the story.
"You see." explained the wife, "he's
been having some sort of matter with
his stomach, and he consulted two dif

to eat a ripe apple every hour, and
the other said to rest an hour after
'eating. So he's trying to do both."
