eyes from Arnold's profile show
ing as he half turned, obedient-
ly raised her daintily gloved
hands. Arnold fumbled for a
moment somewhere about the
car, and then too shot up his
arms.
A terse order sent two of the
men to the sides Of Arnold and
the count. The leader turned his
attention to Dolly. The girl
obediently stripped off her gloves.
For the first time she seemed to
notice Rivoli and glance of con-
tempt was his share.
The first bright ring came off
without difficulty, but thelsecond
brought forth an oath and a cruel
wrench. InvoluntariIy a little cry
escaped from between Dolly's
clenched teeth.
Quick as a flash Arnold's hand
came down; quicked still he turn
ed back to where the leader
tugged at the girls delicate fin
gers. The cry of warning from
one of the men in the white road
came to late. The girl remember
ed ever after the herceness Of the
cold rage in Arnold's face. The
heavy wrench flashed up bright in
the moonlight and then came
crashing down. The leader sank
down without a groan. With a
feeling of sickening fevulsion

It was Dolly who bore the
greater part of the burden Of lift

one that held the wheel in the
mad ride back to the city. To.r
policemen who signaled her to-
slow up the girl gave significant
nod toward the unconscious man
beside her in the front seat and
let out another notch.
When Arnold awoke, he WON'T

foundings. A pressure of some
thing soft in his hand and a sus-
picious wetness on the back of
his fingers cleared away the
clouds. With a smile hiding the
shooting pain in his shoulder, he -
turned his head till his eyes could
feast on Dolly. Neither cared to =
