Nolan dropped his head in thought
when his wife had finished her TRADE.
He paced up and down nervously.

at Brand, then at his wife.

does not ecist, only the cause. Judge
Bortelmy, that story goes to PRESS" he
cried, raising bis eyes to meet those of
Judith's father.
Bartelmy saw that he had played
his last card. 1t was his highest
trump, but it had failed to win. What
Judith could not do he surely, under
the existing circumstances, could not
do. Nolan, the only man who could
save him If he would, had gone, he
knew not where.
And it was now press time. All was
over. Bartelmy took single step to-
ward his daughter.
Brand, that story is my obituary."
he said in low tones.
"Oh, no." was the response in sad
dened voice. Men like you don't FIN

Judith, too, was ready to admit that
her last and eliminating effort had
been in vain. Wearied and unstrung
she raised herself from the fatal form
that was to besmirch the name and
the father that had been her source Of
pride. She crossed over toward her
father, who stood silent and despair
