ply for a divorce. Whats more--fancy red with my hair!" NO one dare call it anything but Titan in my presence! But seriously, you will go home and make peace with NedT'
 If you wish to communicate with me further-I shall be at Clara Lin- coln's. Good afternoon" She swept out and into the elevator. But I mean business.
 "Bess will purchase motor togs yet" smiled the Judge: But must give expert advice to Ned--surely ones pet lawyer can be 'lSinder.y"
 Mrs. Bradbury went directly to an attorney who knew neither herself nor her husband. She decided 1t poor policy to do business with friends. Young Lawyer Elkins. she found. had no scruples.
 Has the defendant any property we could attach?" asked the splinter of the bar pompously.
 'T wouldn't take penny from him!" protested Elizabeth.
 We could worry him a lotP tempted the legal adviser.
 Could I attach his automobile?" cried Elizabeth, eagerly.
 'T shall get cut the writ at oncew he said decisivelys
 T suppose 1t is a clever way for an automobile widow to avenge herself" sighed Elizabeth. Then brislSly: You'll find the car at the Westminster garage"
 Elizabeth went to Clara Lincoln's re- joicing at her coup d'etat Clara. being of the Miss Hobbs type, congratulated her on her admirable spIrls. Clara was propping up the admirable spirit" when Elizabeth's lawyer called her to the telephone.
 'Tello---Yes. this is she--The car is not there?-A sheriff and two de- tectives searching? My goodness everyone in town will hear about It, Necessary?-oh-h very well"
 Later another call came.
 ''Yes-Located the car at the Apple by Coach Company? Bring 1t away at once---On the third floor? Well, bring 1t down the way it went up--Man re- fuses to operate the elevator? Can't you force him to? Then get a trained elevator man and I'll pay for his time They refuse to allow the elevator to be operated-Ridiculous Equipped with a writ to seize property, but balk- ed because there's no law to force them to help you get itI-Lawyer Elkins- are you there?-Take it out a window! The wall must be full of windows. Windows too small?-Take the machine apart-Gracious! Five hundred dol- lars to put 1t together again?-You suggest leaving 1t there with a sheriff to guard 1t? Very we'll"
 Elizabeth passed an unhappy night. What would Ned do? She speculated about the blonde and Mrs. Wheeler and worried about the sheriff sitting alone through the long night on the third floor of the Appleby repository with Ned's big cream-colored motor car shining like ghost out of the gloom. She feared she was punishing the sher- fir more than Ned.
 Next morning a strange lawyer call ed. Ned's lawyer! She shuddered.

 'Tt's not money want" she ex- plained loftily. But the car"
 This is certainly the motoring sea- son." he agreed. And the dealers can't deliver car under six weeks. That's why the other two ladies were so anxious to secure this one"

 Any message to send my client? asked Snyder, rising.
 Wait, please" cried Elizabeth, wild Iy, I'm going down to MT. Bradbury's office myself There's really nothing more you can do on the case"
 Elizabeth was smiling on the lawyer recklessly.
 May I take you down in my auto mobile?" he suggested.
 "Oh, would you?" she asked, gaily. Automobiles go so delightfully."- quick But pardon me a moment Hello, Cen tral. Give me 50O6 Blue. Is that Judge Ferris? O-o-h-Dicky I thought you'd be relieved to know I've decided on the color for my motor outfit. Red may denote enthusiasm, but gray is much more serviceable, and you know Ned has talked of some long trips. Be- sides, gray is so harmonious with Titan tresses That's all. What2 Ned there? How lovely I'll be right downw
