slowly. Il don't think you in the least

Sometimes / wonder if there's such

would have left him.
We'll, want to talk this over with
you. Please, Jennie Sit down. he
said. tell me what you said want
to know where things are, so | can

tomorrow. You don't realize what q
hole I'm in"
What did I say 10 him." she re
peated, looking down at her wrists
Nothing very much. told him IL be
went on he'd ruin us all; that 1t wasn't
right for him to do it. / told him we
wanted him-I wanted him-to wait
for my sake"
For your sake?"

walking up and down exeitedly. what

especially a young man-of course. OF
course,"
Thank you" she commented cold
ly; thank you very much
He sought to put a consoling or an
explanatory hand on her shoulder, but
she shook hisa of, shivering.
Il don't mean anything" he began
,confusedly. Get me straight, now.
only wanted to say that when you
work for me in this you are working
for your own sake also. It's all up TO
you, Jennie, right now. If you can't
! land him, we're gone-it's no use my
trying to do anything with him. DO
you know. I'm going to send you out
after him.
Send me out?"
Eyes; things have TO be done the
best way they can be done. That fell
low can say one word whichll ruin
as in one days time. He can break
the values in International more than
we can mend in months. Our men
would begin to cover as soon as they
caught hint that anything was really
wrong. AS for me, I'm spread out for
millions in the general market. II
they began to hammer me ! couldn't
come through wouldn't last a week.
The thing to do Is 70 keep this news
safe until can protect myself-untII
l can protect us all. Now it's you.
Jennie, that's got TO do that-its you!
I'm sending you out after him"
q always thought, Mr.. Rawn," said
she, that you played a dangerous
game, so long as you simply trusted
that he'd do anything you told him"
Yes. / see It now. But he always
was odd-he always held something
back. l tell you, he's crazy! Now,
he's either just crazy over his fool So
cialist ideas, or else he's going to hold
out for a squeeze. In the first case
you can handle him. In the second, ]
can.
You see-I couldn't tell our direc
torate," he went on; but there was
always something lacking which
couldn't handle myself. We need him
and we've got to have him! You can
get him, l know you can. You can do
anything you like. You're wonder
full"
She sat and looked at him, her lips
still parted in the same enigmatic
smile which he did not like to see, but
she made no answer.
whats wrong with him?" he went
on Immediately. What does he say is
the trouble. anyway? And is it the
truth that he's got overhead current?T
She nodded. "of course, I know
something about it from my work in

| What ! want to know is, what he's goi
against us, anyhow, Jennie?"
We'll, for one thing. he seemed
! troubled because Grace would not &C
back with him. He seemed TO think
| that you and the life you could give
her had been the reason for her aban
l doniEg him.
why, what nonsense! Grace hasns
| abandoned him! And ] only got her
over here because / needed her my
self-before-well,. before We were
