Dupuy put his oyerlg6at back on. the
chair. His luck was still holding good,
he congratulated himself Here was a
chance to make the acquaintance Of
the new owner of the influential Adj
vance, an opportunity 10 pave the
way possibly to secure future favors
from him for his clients when emer-
gencies arose. Needless to say, emer-
gencies frequently arose to disturb
the peace OF mind OF the varieties of
people who sought the versatile aid
of Mr.. Ed Dupuy. He turned to face
McHenry and said
"Oh, the new owner. I'd like to
meet him. If you don't object I'll
wait" Dupuy seated himself at the
extreme left hand corner Of the office
close to the rack containing files of
the daily papers. He took down a file
and began to read. McHenry, laugh
ing at the patent anxiousness of the
lawyer to meet Nolan, put on his coat.
A heavy step was heard. and the
bulky form of the new owner of the
Advance stood before the managing
editor.

remarked bluntly.

him. There was something familiar

something familiar in the features

searching. He crouched toward him
and compressed his brows as though
to render his sight more certain, more
penetrating. He had half extended his
own hand to grasp Dupuy's. Sudden

drew it violently back.
