Quently kept large sums Of money in
the house, and the discharged coach
man must have known that there was
money in the safe that night The do
mestics were out OF the way; it would
be an easy matter to one familiar with
the house to force an entrance and
overpOwer the weak girl.
Under his breath he prayed that he
might not be too late, but his fears
had hold of him, and in spite Of the
rapid rush through the cold night the
perspiratiOn stood out upon his fore
head.
He had hoped to see her at the
BrysnS' party that evening, and it was
the announcement that she would not
be there that had led him to call up
Enid on his early return from the
dinner which had preceded the dance.
He thought as he rushed along that
he would have asked her TO be his
wife that evening. Now he wondered
II he would find her lying mortally
wounded upon the door Had she shot
the burglar she would have snsweTC =
The shot must have been meant for
her.
In less than twenty minutes he had
covered the ten miles and stopped the
car before the big gates OF the park
/ IN which the Allen house sat. IL
would be better, be argued, to gain
access to the house quietly. Possibly
the assassin bad not yet left the place.
1t would take some time to force open
the safe.
There were lights in several OF the
rooms downstairs, and at the rear he
found a door unlocked and softly en-
tered. The telephone, he knew. was
in the hall on the second floor, and
thither be directed his steps, but as
he passed the library he saw through
the open door a man STOPPING over the
safe, apparently at work on the CON-
bination.
Before he could make a spring the
figure started up, and Gerald found
himself looking down the barrel Of
dainty reyOlver-the very weapon be
remembered having seen Enid use the
summer before In camp at Indian is
land, the one she had told him she
would use for her protection. This
man must have taken it from her body.
UnmIndful Of the consequences, be
made a leap and caught at the hand
holding the weapon.
There was a fash, q report and
light blow on the arm. Then came a
singing sensation in the right arm,
and Just as the blood running down
the sleeve Redeemed the hand the bur
glar, with an entirely feminine shrek,
dropped TO the floor.
The soft hat fen OF, and great mass
es Of dark brown hair, released from
confinement, framed Ends face. There
was water and spirits on the table,
and, hastily tying his handkerchief
about his arm, Gerald knelt beside the
limp figure and forced some brandy
between her clincled lips.
In a moment she opened her eyes,
regarding him dreamfly. ''What are

men wear mustaches?' About 10C
men answered the question. Six re
piled that it was too much trouble t.
shave, one declared that it was to hide
his teeth, another that his long nose,
without it, gave him bad appearance
and three that it avoided colds. Three
others maintained that it improved the
air they breathed, and seven were of
the opinion that a mustache was neces-
sary to health. Seventeen men were
content to state that they did it tc
please themselves, while only two said
it was to please their wives. About
sixty gave the reason that women dc
not like clean shaven men.
