CHAPTER XIV.

Tn RAND and McHenry began
I'D eagerly to inspect the final
49, proofs Of the Bartelmy story.
Ua Two figures suddenly stood
in the doorway Of the composing room.
Ed Dupuy's telephone call was begin
ming to show results. Judge Bartelmy
and Judith, ready for a.: last effort: to
prevent the publication Of the. con-
demnatory article, quite: unobserved,
glanced to where Brand and his assoc
ciate editor were at work.. Don't
come in yet. Walt q few moments"
whispered the Judge. The girl slipped
down the hall into the: managing edi.
tors little Office, the coign of vantage
from which she had previously been
able: to hear all that took place in tho
composing room. Bartelmy proceeded
directly to- the form before which the
two editors were working, and Brand
saw that he must undergo another I'M
pleasant encounter before the presses
began: to whirl oft his story. He
glanced impatiently at the clock and
raised his brows questioningly to the
judge.

The managing editor gazed approx

exposed on one Of the stones under q
shaded electric light. He looked up
to congratulate AcHeney on the man

Mrs. Nolan clutched at the ex-miner's
arm and cried shrilly:
"Now, now, Michael, that's not your

BUDDING AUTOISTS

New Car Owners.
By HARRY WARD.

The budding motorist with his new
car fresh from the maker is in his glory
just now. The air has become baImy,
the roads have dried up. and his brand
new car offers the motOrist every IA
ciiity with which to enjoy life. He can
be found on every road leading out CT
the city arj as the season advances he
will find recruits 10 the ranks OF the
motorists by the score. In this connec-
ton ii is interesting to note that an men
are not by right of birth. mechanics;
some men cannot even acquire A rea-
Sonable degree Of mechanical prof
cheney. and even those who can, unless
they practice daily in the mechanical
arts, overlook the important considera-
TONS allowing their training "a fall into
disuse. When they acquire heir first
automobile they accept il AZ a mere sub
sutute FOR horse, excepting that they
give II credit for a wider range OF ac-
uvity, and assume that Il will stand
abuse almost without limit This is the
one mistake which the majority OF
motorists make and the quicker the
rank and file see its fallaoy the better IL
will be for the Industry and the sport
