The Trail of Treacherv.

But young Mr.. Law was sole agent
OF his own evanishment; just as he
was nobody's fool, least of all his own.
The hidden meaning of the trey OF
hearts perplexed him with such dis
trust that before leaving London. he
dispatched a code cablegram to his
confidential agent In New York.
What do you know about the trey Of
hearts? Answer Immediately.
The answer forestalled his arrival
In Liverpool:
Trine's death sign for your father. For
Gods sake. look to yourself and keep
away from America
But Alan had more than once Wis
tied America incognito and unknown
to Seneca Urine via a secret route of
his own selection.
Eight days out OF London, a second
class passenger newly landed from
one of the C.-P. steamships. he walked

Crossing the ST. Lawrence by night.
the two struck off quietly into the
hinterland OF the Notre Dame range,
then crossed the Maine border.
On the second noon thereafter,
;-ail-worn and weary. as lean as their
depleted packs, the two paused on
ridge-pole of the wilderness up back
of the Allagash country, and made
their midday meal in a silence which.
If normal in the Indian. was one OF
deer misgivings on Alan's part.
Continually his gaze questioned the
northern skies that lowered porten-
tously, foul with smoke-a country
wide conflagration that threatened all
northern Maine. bone-dry with
drought
Only the south offered a fair PROB
pect And the fires were making
southwark far faster than man might
hope to travel through that grim and
stubborn land.
Even as he stared. Alan saw fresh
columns of dun-coiored smoke spring
up in the northwest
Anxiously he consulted the inpas-

his questions gained Alan little COM

The girl bent forward. breathing

Local firms have found it cheaper and
more practicable to import from

has been greatly reduced during the
last FIVE years. as the entry OF cheaper
foreign goods has made II impossible
to make a profit. SO the looms have

CHAPTER I.
The Message Of the Rose.

Lapped deep in the leather-bound
luxury OF an ample lounge-chalr
walled apart from the world by the
venerable solitude Of the library OF
Londou's most exclusive club. Mr..
Alan Law sprawled largely on the
nape OF his neck) and. squirting dis
contentedy down his nose. admitted
that he was exhaustively bored.
Now the chair filed so gracelessly
stood by an open window. some TWEEN
~ feet below which lay a stable
walled garden, an old English garden
in full flower. And through the win
dow, now and then. a half-hearted
breeze waited gusts of warm air.
sauve and enervating with the heavy
fragrance Of English roses.
Mr.. Law drank deep of 1t. and In
spite of his spiritual unrest, sighed
slightly and shut his eyes.
An unspoken word troubled the
depth OF his consciousness, so that
old memories stirred and struggled to
its surface. The word was Rose.
and for the time seemed to be the
name neither OF a woman nor OF a
flower, but oddly OF both, as though
the two things we're one. His mental
vision, bridging the gap OF year, con-
jured up the vision OF a 1.-THE, sweet
silhouette In white, with red roses
at her belt, posed on terrace OF the
Riviera against the burning Mediter-
ranean blue.
Mr.. Law was DULY conscious that
he ought to be sorry about something.
But he was really very drowsy indeed /;
and so. drinking deep OF winescent
OF roses, he fell gently asleep.
The clock was striking four when
he awoke: and before closing his
eyes he had noticed that its hands
indicated ten minutes to four. So he
could not have slept very long.
For some few seconds Alan did not
move, but rested as he was. incredu-
lousy regarding a rose which had ma
terialized mysteriously upon the little
table at his elbow. He was quite sure
II had not been there when he closed
his eyes, and almost as sure that It
was not real
And In that instant OF awakening
the magic fragrance Of the rose-garden
seemed to be even more strong and
cloying sweet than ever.
Then he put out gingerly hand
and discovered that 1t was real beyond
all question. A warm red rose, fresh
plucked, drops of water trembling and
sparkling like tiny diamonds on the
velvet of its fieshy petals. And when
impulsively he took 1t by the stem. he
discovered a most indisputable thorn
which did service for the traditional
pinch.
Convinced that he wasn't dreaming.
Alan transferred the rose to his sound
hand. and meditatively sucked his
