Barak was indeed violently affected
by the sight Of the uncut ruby. and
his face had changed In a startling
way; great vein like whipcord sud

forehead straight up and down; his
lids had opened so wide that they un'
covered the white OF the eye almost
all around the iris; he was biting his

of course, deserved II on the principle
that people who cannot keep money

newspaper man had then nicknamed
it the Brass Trust. and had called him
Brassy Van Torp; but it is of no use
to throw mud at the Golden Calf, for
the dirt soon dries to dust and falls
on, leaving the animal as beautifully
shiny as ever.
Mr.. Van Torp did not quite see how

of money to further his plans with

eial position in Europe much too well
to think of trying to attack him on
that ground; and besides. in his rough
code it would not be fair play to do
that. Il was "all right" to ruin a hos

CHAPTER ~.

Without offending Mr.. Van Torp,
Lady Maud managed not to see him
again for some time, and when he UNI
derstood, as he soon did, that this was
her wish. he made no attempt to force
himself upon her. She was probably
thinking over what he had said, and
in the end she would exert her In
fluence as he had begged her to do.
He was thoroughly persuaded that
there was nothing unfair in his pro
posal and that, when she was con-
WINGED that be was right, she would
help him.
But when he had taken the first
step towards accomplishing his pur'
pose. he was very much at a loss as
to the next, and he saw that he had

aire stopped him.
Say don't go Just yet. I'll show
you a ruby that'll make you sit up"
He rose as he spoke, and Barak I'M
derstood his smile and question, and
waited. Mr.. Van Torp went into the
next room, and came back almost i'm.
mediately, bringing a small black mo-
rocco case. which he set on the table
and unlocked with a little key that
hung on his watchchain. He was not
fond Of wearing jewelry, and the box
held all his possessions of that sort.
and was not full There were three
or four sets Of plain studs and links:
there were half dozen very big gold
collar studs; there was a bit Of an old
gold chain, apparently cut OF at each
end. and having one cheap little dia-
mond set in each link; and there was
a thin old wedding ring that must
have been woman's; besides a few
other valueless trinkets. all lying loose
and in confusion. Mr.. Van Torp shook
the box a little, poked the contents
about with one large finger, and soon
found an uncut red stone about the
size Of a hazelnut, which he took out
and placed on the white cloth before
the visitor.
