 I'D It would even afford me some pleas ure to slop your pretty and expensive rug with your vital fluid, for the req son that invested rather beyond my means in your Gargantuan Consolidated and Unlfquidated. Do you believe this? The multi- i-millionaire looked into his eyes and then nodded.
 Then if anybody should interrupt us tell them that you are engaged in your ordinary affable manner. Don't let them get hint of what's going on. because if you called the whole police force and the national guard they couldn't prevent me from plugging you. Understand"
 The multi-millionaire moistered his lips with tongue and nodded again.
 All right then. Now we'll get down to business. I want $10,00o. You will naturally be surprised at my modera- tion. If you had the cinch I had you'd never let go until you'd pumped your man dry, would you? Well. sye got a conscience. that's the difference.
 My friend" said the multi million aire, you misjudge me. am not with out conscience and to a certain extent can understand and sympathize with your distress. If you lost money in
 
 nothing out of 1t. Still. I suppose I must hold myself responsible for your loss and I will make 1t up to you. Do you know, I have taken a fancy to you As said, have no cash on hand, but If you will leave me your address" Too coarse" said the visitor, q feel hurt to think you should have such a low opinion of my intelligence. We're wasting time. I guess yoiS bank can stand an overdraft. Is that your check book there by your elbow?" Yes" said the multi millionaire opening the book with cheerful alacrity I'll write you a check; 10000 you said, didn't you? What name?'
 My name Is Short" said the visitor, but you can make that check out to yourself. Don't keep me too long" But if-"
 Please don't argue; you make me nervous and my forefinger gets the witches when I'm nervous. That's 8 right. Excuse me looking over your shoulder. but you've got that dated the day after tomorrow. Tear the check out and try another. That's better. Now want you to call a clerk and send him over to the bank to get that cashed I'll take 1t in ten one thousands. Now I want you to be very careful in your manner to that clerk. If see a gleam of suspicion in his eye-or if the bank makes any bones about this there will be consequences right off. Understand? ?' The multi millionaire pulled a hand kerchief from his pocket and wiped his forehead. TT think I've plotted this l check a little" he said. I'll write an- other"
 The visitor smiled. Quite a differ 1 ence in the signature" he observed. as he watched the writing of the check. Now touch your buzzer.

 The multi millionaire was busily en- gagged with some papers on his desk when his visitor entered. One of these he took up and examined frowningiy while the visitor stood, hat in hand. Then he took up a pen and made q nasty memorandum on the back of the document. Tossing 1t into pigeon hole he looked up. severely. T can give you just about three minutes, he said If. as you say. you have good thing and you can convince me of it in that time, well and good. What is it?-
 The visitor seated himself. He was a young man, stoutly built. with quick black eyes, a massive jaw and a self possessed manner. His dress betoken- ed poverty in the genteel degree. His voice, when he spoke. was soft and low. but particularly distinct.

 He pushed the muzzle of a short, fat revolver within a foot of the multi miliionaire's white waistcoat. Don't cry out" he said. in the same calm. sofl voice. Because If you do you will all most instantly solve the mystery of the hereafter and know you don't want to do that Have you grasped the situa- tion?"

 The multi-milllonaire seemed to make an effort and the color slowly came back to his face. Well" he said, at- ter moment or two, I'm sorry, but you've come to the wrong shop. I've good deal of money tied up in invest ments, but I have no cash.'
 "Ah! that's bette :" commented the visitor. T see the mental paralysis has passed. Now let me premise. I have this little weapon. as you observe. I am what Is called a desperate man-that is to say. don't care a red cent what be- comes of me If you conclude not to give
