Shorthand Typewriter.

A new machine, called the steno-
type, has been invented, which en-
ables the shorthand writer to get
from 400 to GOO words minute upon
paper in an absolutely correct and
accurate form. The basis of operat-
ing a machine is phonetic spelling. It
is but a shorthand typewriter. While
the work done is virtually the same al
done by shorthand it has the advan-
tage of being recorded in plain Eng
lish characters.

CHAPTER xx.-continued.

AS he waited for her answer, Agatha
suddenly came to herself. Her trem
bling ceased; she looked about upon
them all with her truthful eyes; look
ed upon Hand standing unconcerned-
ly in the doorway, upon Chatelaro III
the corner cleaning like an Oily devil.
"No-he had nothing to do with IT,
she said.
Chatelard's laugh beat back ner
words like a bludgeon.
Liars. all liars!" he cried. Il might
have known!"
But Chamberlain was impatient OF
all this. And now, Monsieur Kidnap-
er. you can walk off with this gentle
man here. And you can't go one min
ute too soon. The penitentiarys the
place for you"
Chatelard turned on him with anoth-
er laugh. You need not feel Obliged
to hold on to me, Mister Land Agent
I know when I'm beaten-which you
Englishmen never do. Got another OF
those pears you offered me this morn
ing?"
Before Chamberlain could make re-
ply. or before the sheriff and his pris.
oner could get to the door there was
the chug of an automobile. sec

That's me! Oh, there you are!
Why don't you open up and get some

wait a minute, Mr.. Straker-''
Agatha was saying, when suddenly the
attention of everybody in the room
was drawn outside.
When Chamberlain had told Chate-
lard that his horse was loose in the
yard, it happened to be the truth; now
excited by fear of the strange machine
that had just arrived. the horse, with
flying bridlerein. was snorting and
prancing on his way to the vegetable
garden. 1t was almost beyond mascu.
line power to resist the impulse of pur.
suit. Aleck and Chamberlain sprang
through the window, the sheriff went
as far as the lawn after them, and in
that instant Chatelard slipped like an
eel through the open door and out to
the gate to Straker's machine, still
chugging. The sheriff saw him as he
jumped in.
Hey, there!" he shouted, aad made
a lively run for the gate. But before
he reached II, Chatelard had jerked
open the lever, loosened the brake,
and was passing the church at half
speed.
Hey. there" quickly called the sher.
IN Hes got away"
But Mr. Hand had already thought
what was best TO be done.
Come on, here's another machine.
