NOW, my dear young woman" said
Judge Brewster, when the astonished
head clerk had withdrawn, ''if we are
going to get your husband free we
must get to work, and you must help
me-"
His visitor looked up eagerly.
"I'll do anything in my power" she
said quickly. What can do?"
"Well-first of ALL" said the lawyer
with some hesitation, II want you
to see certain lady and to be ex.
ceedingly nice to her.
Lady," echoed Annie, surprised.
What lady?"
Mrs. Howard Jeffries. sr.." he re.
piled slowly.
"Howards stepmother!" she ejacu.
lated.
A clerk entered and handed his en-
ployer card. The lawyer nodded
and said in an undertone:
Show her in." Turning round
again. he went on: ''Yes-Howard's
stepmother. She's out there now. She
wants to see you. She wishes to be
Of service to you. Now. you must
conciliate her. She may be of great
use to u.s."
Annie's face expressed considerable
doubt.
Perhaps So" she said, but the
door was slammed In my face when |
called to see her."
That's nothing" answered the
Judge. "She probably knows nothing
about it. In any case, please remem-
ber that she is my client"
She bowed her head and murmured
obediently:
III remember"
The door of the office opened and
Alicia entered. She stopped short on
seeing who was there. and an awk-
ward pause followed. Judge Brewster
introduced them.
Mrs. Jeffries. may / present Mrs.
Howard, Jr.?"
Alicia bowed stim and somewhat
haughtily. Annie remained self-pos-
sessed and on the defensive. Address
ing the bankers wife. the lawyer said:
II told Mrs. Howard that you
wished to speak to her." After pause
he added: II think. perhaps. I'll leave
you together. Excuse me-
He left the office and there was an
other embarrassing silence. Annie
waited for Mrs. Jeffries to begin. Her
attitude suggested that she expected
sometb Ing unpleasant and was fully
prepared for 1t. At last Alicia broke
the silence:
You may think It strange that l
have asked for this interview" she
began, but you know. Annie" In
terrupting herself, she asked: You
don't mind my calling you Annie. do

Judge Brewster raised his fist and
brought it down on the desk with a
bang which raised In cloud the ac-
cumulated dust of weeks. His face
set and determined, he said:
You're quite rightl I'm going to
take your easel"
Annie felt herself giving way. 1t
was more than she could stand. For
victory to be hers when only a mo-

was too much for her nerves. ALI she
