"Gone!'
Jones kept saying to himself that he
must strive to be calm, to. think, think.
Despite all his warnings, the warnings
of Norton, she had tricked them and

to arrange these abductions.
How had they succeeded in doing it?
No one had entered the house that day
without his being present. There had
been no telephone cali he had not
heard the gist OF, nor any letters he
had not first glanced over. How had
they done it? Suddenly into his mind
flashed the remembrance Of the candle.

before. In a dozen bounds he was in
her room, searching drawers, paper
boxes, baskets. He found nothing. He
returned in despair to Susan, who,
during all this turmoil, had sat as If
frozen in her chair.
Speak" he cried. For Gods sake,
say something, think something. Those
devils are likely to torture her, hurt
her," He leaned against the wall, his
head on his arm.
When he turned again he was calm
He walked with bent head toward the
door, opened it and stood upon the
threshold for a space. Across the
street a shadow stirred, but Jones die

something which shone dimly white or
the walk just beyond the steps. He
ran to it. A crumpled letter, unad
dressed. He carried it back to the
house, smoothed it out and read its
contents. Florence in her haste had
dropped the letter.
He clutched at his hat, put it on and
ran to Susan.
"Here!" he cried, holding out an au
tomato. 'If anyone comes in that yor

boy not long ago who was moodily

owe the first young man she had ever
met? In her heart Of hearts the girl
did not know.
Her fatheri
1t was all SO terribly and tragicaliy
simple, to match a woman's mind
against that OF a child. Both Norton
and the sober Jones had explicitly
warned her never to go anywhere,
receive telephone calls or letters, with
out first consulting one or the other
of them. And now she had planned
to deceive them, with all the cunning
of her sex.
The next morning at breakfast there
was nothing unusual either in her ap-
pearance OF manners. Under the
shrewd scrutiny of Jones she was just
her everyday self, a fine bit of acting
for one who had yet to see the stage.
But it is born in woman to act, as
it is born in man to fight, and Flor
ence was no exception to the rule.
She was going to save her father.
She read with Susan, played the
piano, seWed a little, laughed, hummed
and did a thousand and one things
young girls do when they have the
deception of their elders in view.
All day long Jones went about like
an old hound with his nose to the
| wind. There was something in the
| air, but he could not tell what it was.
Somehow. or other, no matter which
room Florence went into, there was
| Jones within earshot. And she dared
not show the least impotence or res
tiveness. 1t was a large order for SO
| young a girl, but she filled it.
She rather expected that the re-
| porter would appear some time during
| the afternoon: and sure enough he
did. He could no more resist the de-
| sire to see and talk to her than he
| could resist breathing. There was no
use denying it; the world had sud-
denly turned at a new angle, present

She did not ask him what he meant

He drew a chair beside the piano
and watched her fingers, white as the
ivory keys. flutter up and down the
board. She played Chopin for him,
Mendelssohn, Grieg and Chaminade;
and she played them in a surprisingly
scholarly fashion. He had expected
