Lut she did me the jutlice to know that I ould have resented any open ex reiion of sympathy, and I went way more heartened with her simple phrae than i would have Kith a whole paragraph of ncituus solid tude. "YouVt Not Needed Here." At I climbed into the ear a win dow above me opened I identified it as one from my father' room and Allan Drake.' voice ipoke au thoritivrly: "Where are you going?" ft was one thing to how to Lil lian's authority, it was another to ac cept meekly the dictatorial attitude of this man who alternately fascinated and repelled me. My aniwer wa curt: "To the honpiu!.'' 'Why?" "To get the antidote tor the poi son." "So she managed it," he said in a tone which registered disappointment, and I knew that he savagely regret ted the lost chance to punish Smith with a done of what Tom Chester had suffered. His next words alarm ed me. "You're not going alone at this hour. I'll send Munson. No, wait. I'll go with you myself. I'm not needed here for a little while." "You're not needed here either," I said audaciously as he lowered the window. He threw it up again in stantly. "What did you say?" demanded. 1 repeated 'the words, knew by the change in his tone that 1 had of fended him mortally. A Lonely Drive. "You are not a good judge of that," he said icily, "and I insist upon com ing with you." "You'll have to run fairly fast, then," I retorted, as I threw in the clutch and sent the car purring along the driveway. The window slammed down vi ciously, and I laughted lightly to myself at the sheer joy of outwitting th self-satisfied Drake. But before I had gone many rods the darkness unusually dense, with every tree and bush a menacing ahadow seemed to press 'down upon me, and to my own chagrined aston ishment I found myself regretting that I had not accepted Mr. Drake's offer. It was too late to turn back, how ever, and as I went along the road tny lamps picked out at a lively clip. When! turned into the Briggs drive way it was with a feeling that for a few minutes at least I had a tempo rary haven. I sounded my horn, and soon Mr. Briggs, in bathrobe and slippers, lean ing uoon a cane and holding a lan tern in the other hand, appeared at th door. "Bless my soul!" h said in his bluff hearty way. "It's Mrs. Graham. 1$ everything all right up there? I haven't heard anything, of course, and this pesky leg of mine is troub ling me so I couldn't get over even if they had needed me." I explained briefly, punctuated with expressions of dismay from Mr. Fritrgs, and at my request for a tele phone, he led the way to his sitting room and rang the connection for me with a fussy nervousness which tet rived how real was his concern for Tom Chester.
