He sighed heavily. and she hung her
head. Hawcastle locked toward the
open door Of the room and touched his
son upon the shoulder. When they had
reached the door the earl locked back
and shook his fist at Pike.
"You haven't heard the last of this,
curse you!" he said and disappeared
quickly. Lady Creech, who had been

suddenly out of her trance and gazed

Horace came suddenly to life and
closed his dropping jaw. He stepped
forward and faced the old lady.
"My sister will remain for time,

Lady Creech put up her lorgnetts
and stared at him and with naughty
sniff left the room with the air OF q
conqueror. Pike gazed after her whim-
sically.

presses" he said and looked down at
his feet
Twice Ethel essayed to speak. and
twice she put out her hand In his d.
rection. and both times she failed.
Then, with a choking little sob, she
picked up her dress and fairly ran
from the room. Horace followed her
quickly and still Pike stood there in
an attitude of incomprehension.
The point he had striven for had
failed. He had shown this girl the
true rottenness of the people she had
tried so hard to ally herself with. and
the knowledge had failed to move her.

The President will find a lot TO worry
him IN business connected with the
Treasury Department. This includes
the vexing problem Of administering
the maximum and minimum features
OF the tariff law, which Congress has
saddled on the White House.
It is a remarkable fact that while
the high tarin leaders IN Congress
would not listen to the idea OF allowing
the President any authority 70 make
reciprocal agreements, they have given
him tremendous authority with respect
TO suspending or applying the maxi
