The man rose from his seat at the

strides, began pacing back and forth
in the narrow limits of the little hut.
The girl lay still, but her eyes follow
ed him. Her thoughts were keeping
step with his.

world, that's true" she said presently
And yet, that's not exactly the

Once he could get back to his boat
and feel the oars under his hands
again-once he found himself pulling
out toward the yacht. no matter how
desperate the odds awaiting him there
might be against him. he would. he

He ran on and on down the beach.
He had not passed his boat, he knew;
but he finally realized that he had

LAWYERS FEES IN GERMANY
They Are Fixed by Law and the Al
torney Can Charge Neither
More Nor Less.

Lawyers in Germany cannot adver.
tise. and their fees are fixed by law.
according to DR.. Hermann Haeussler.
rechtsanwalt. OF Berlin. Germany. who
is at the New Willard. A rechtsanwalt
combined.
The German law fixes the exact
fees which a German attorney has to
claim for all kinds of professional
work. and the rechtsanwalt can charge
neither more nor less. These fees are
fixed whether the cases are criminal or
come under the civil code. The amount
depends exclusively on the value OF
the object Of contention or the charac-
ter of the crime. 1t Is an old. though
still unfulfilled. wish OF German law
yers to have new fixed list of fees,
not made after the old low standard
of the year 1873. but with considera-
tion to the changes-numerous and de-
cided-which have taken place since
that year.
The rechtsanwalt can never be a
business man. as may the lawyer In
the United States. The practice of the
law is not considered calling or pro.
fession. but is essentially a public Of
fee.
According to the code OF 1878. O
lawyer is charged with certain public
duties. He is obliged to have his resi-
dence in the town or district whence
appointed. Further. he must conduct
himself in and out OF office in :. man
ner BETTING his professional and so
cial standing-a duty devo.ving upor
his rank. A lawyer is forbidden to ad

he saw ray Of sunshine splashed
golden upon the opposite wall of the
hut. It must have been light for
hours.
Very silently. very cautiously he un-
barred the door and pulled 1t open. Be-
fore opening the outer door, he drew
his revolver and spun its cylinder un-
derneath his thumb-nail. If the re-
pulsed party from the Walrus were
camped near by, it would be well to
be cautious before reconnoitering.
He pulled the outer door a little way
open and glance slantwise up the
beach. The brilliant light dazzled him
and made 1t hard to see; but appar-
emily there was no one there. Step
ping outside, he turned his gaze In
land, along the foot of the cliff. His
mind was entirely preoccupied with
the danger Of a sudden rush Of enc
mics from near at hand.
That is how 1t happened that, for
quite a minute after he opened the

cast single glance seaward. He
did not look in that direction, until
he saw that Jeanne, awakened by the
daylight in the hut, was standing in
the doorway. Her own eyes, puzzled.
incredulous. only half awake, were
gazing out to sea. The expression he
saw in her face made him turn, sud-
denly. and look.

Haeussler. ''and through custom and
law he is compelled to keep the posi-

to the existence of committees. called

have a strict code OF punishment.

expel lawyer from his calling.

in mockery, but there was an under
tone Of seriousness in her voice.

He seated himself once more at her
feet, switched of the fading light

sleeves Of her coat across his shoul-
