Then she called up the dumbwaiter:
Mae! Is that you, Mae?"
Hello, Margaret! Say I'm mighty
tired tonight. They're only just get
ting ready to sit down to dinner. Mr..
Wright was late, as usual. I'm about
tired of this job. I think I'll move
next month
II guess could tell somebody where
Wright spent the afternoon, il cared
to. Say, listen, Mae!"
81 can't, Margaret. She's calling
me-"
"Just minute. Listen! Wright
was joy-riding through the town with
his stenographer in his auto, as loving
as you please, with half the town
watching.him. Took her home after
ward. Mr.. Green was just telling
the old woman about it,"
you don't say! Say, this Is no
place for respectable girl. I'm going
to move on, for sure. Oh. goodness!
There she is calling again!"
Mrs. Wright had called peremptori.
ly to hide the shock of the news. She
had stood with her hand upon the
jamb of the door during the entire
conversation. She had seen Daisy
Dean, her husbands stenographer, two
or three times, and she had noticed
with disapproval the little affectation
of the girl always to have bunch OF
daisies upon her desk. Once or twice
her husband had come home wearing
one of the flowers in his buttonhole.
He had come home with one that
night
Wright. who loved his wife sincere.
ly, had not failed to note the little sign
of jealousy against the girl who was
his business confidant. On that &C.
count he had said nothing about the
reason for his automobile drive with
her that day Perhaps he would have
been wiser had he done SO. But the
meal passed almost in silence, and he
attributed his wife's moroseness to
her plea of a nervous headache.

CHAPTER II.

CAS- | live, Daisy Dean getting out
of car at her door with mani"
"Look how he's helping her! Who
is he? What will Austin Clark say
when he hears?"
Robert, this thing has got to be
stopped right away!'
Miss Susan Minturn looked at her
younger brother. with all her habitual
determination. The prim old maid dis
liked Daisy intensely: First, because
she was stylishly dressed; second, be-
cause she was pretty; thirdly. because
she knew of her brothers hopeless
passion for her.
81 can't stop it," muttered Robert,
surlily.
"You can. too. I'm going to make
it my business to see that Austin
Clark hears about it, What right has
an engaged girl to go joy-riding with
middle-aged man? He's married, too,
as like as not Those married ones
are usually the worst ever!"
Daisy, having been assisted to her
house, entered and watched her en-
ployer from the window as he drove
away. Her foot still panied her a
good deal. 1t had been wrenched In
the door of the elevator as she was
leaving the Office and Mr.. Wright had
considerably driven her home.
He had told her not to come to the
Office for several days. In fact, ne
planned to employ public stenog
pher. But when he began his dicta
ton the next morning he suddenly
realized that he could not risk the
possibility of publicity In his CORE
spondence at such q critical hour. In
| the end he dismissed the girl and
called up Daisy.

task OF going over his affairs once

An hour later he gathered his pa
pers together and thrust them away.
He opened a private drawer and
pulled out a revolver. Quietly he in
serted cartridge in one chamber
and raised the weapon to his forehead.
Daisy Dean looked up to see Rob-
ert standing in the doorway. He hest
tated, and came forward impetuously.
He kneeled beside her and took her
hands in his.
The girl, overcome by the first
token of sympathy she had received,
burst into unrestrained sobbing. Rob-
ert drew her head down on his shout
der
1T is not true, Daisy" he cried.
Dear you know how long have
loved you Be my wife and let us give
the lie to the world"
Before he left Daisy had promised
to become his wife.
AS Robert was leaving her. elated
with happiness, Wright was raising
the revolver to his forehead.
And he, too, suddenly became aware
that someone was standing in the
doorway. 1t was his mother. She had
seen the newspapers, had hurried to
his apartment, and then, instinctively
guessing where he had gone, had hast
ened to the office.
She saw him seated at the desk and
knew that = minute later would have
been too late. She ran to him with
a cry. The weapon dropped from his
hand and rolled under the desk
'Will. my dear boy!" she sobbed.
"Come home with me now You must
not think of that Remember that
you are my boy through everything
and who has ever cared for you as
much as II"
He rose from his desk and put his
arms about her.
''You are right, mother" he said;
and they went out Of the Office to-
gether.

CHAPTER v.

"See that funeral?" asked Cadman
Green at the club window. That's
Minturn's mother, the murderer's, you
know. He killed young Clark when
he came home and found he and his
wife had been out all night together.
Acquit him? Sure, any jury would
acquit him. Wouldn't you? But the
old woman's heart was weak, and it
killed her.
Say, don't you remember that day
we saw Wright joy-riding with his
stenographer and proohesied trou-
BILE? And didn't it follow? Wright a
bankrupt fugitive, stenographer bad
as ever, and, after running one man,
causes her husband to shoot her lover?
They tell me her own mother wired
her not to go home. If her husband
was through with her, she guessed the
disgrace was enough for her, too.
'And, say, do you know what l
heard. She's living with Wright out
side the jurisdiction of the state. You
see, they got together again. and.
mark my words, she'll cause his death
too. A woman like that can't help go
ing through life like wildfire. Sim
monds! She was bad from birth, and
it's pity she ever lived through child
hood Decent enough family, too, I've
heard And to think once lived in
the same apartment house with the
Wrights! BY the way, heard his
wife's married again. Good radiance
of him, say.
81 tell you. boys, LIES pretty swift.
even in q small town, and there's
more real fun in watching what's go
ing on from this window than in going
to q show. 1t almost tempts . man
to gossiping this sort OF thing"

to her home she hurried back, biting
her lips and sobbing, to fling herself
upon her bed and indulge in the bit
terness of her self-immolation.
She felt the universal suspicion, she
felt that she was an object Of scorn
and pity. On the last evening of these
automobile rides, when Daisy mad at
length recovered. Wright returned to
his home thankful that matters at the
office would thenceforward assume
their old routine. The following day
his wife's father would deposit the
sum to his credit, and all would be
plain sailing.
He came home to find the fiat empty
and his wife's belongings gone.

CHAPTER I.

Old Cadman Green knew everybody
In town. Those whom he did not
know were not, in his opinion, worth
knowing and his friends agreed with
him before his face. Behind his back
they voted him an amusing old bore.
But it was the thing to think as Cad
man Green thought, for he had the
tradition of distinction acquired
through bluff and brass, perhaps but
held tenaciously and acknowledged.
Green was maintaining his reputa-
ton in the same way as that in which
he had acquired it.
''You see that woman in the car
riage?" he inquired. Second Mrs.
PercevaIe Artists model before Per-
cevale married her, and had little
scandal all her own in the home town.
Well, she's-hello!"
This time Cadman Green contended
himself with whistle, and, as he
whistled, most of his friends whistled
too
William Wright with his pretty
stenographer!" said the old man.
The person in question, seated in
his automobile beside decidedly pref
ty young woman passed under the
club windows, and the car, after speed
ing a short way farther, turned on in
the direction of a respectable but
modest suburb.
what do you think of that?" de-
manded Green Wright and lady
friend and seeing her home through
the town in broad daylight! And l
live underneath him!"
He burst into chuckle and slapped
his fat leg, while the others exchanged
smiles and mods
Their servant told our girl that
Mrs. Wright is Internally jealous
of her husband" continued Green. Il
wonder-I wonder what she would say
Ii she could see that?"
He glanced about him. He had kept
up his reputation among his peers.
Now the news must be spread. 1t was
too good to retain. Green did not
wish Wright any harm, but he felt
that the joke was on him, and he
wanted Mrs. Green to agree with him.
BY the time he reached the apart
ment house he was bursting with the
news Dinner was ready, and he held
it only through the soup, INDUCING in
the toys of anticipation until he could
bear them no longer
81 saw an interesting sight today"
he said, with an affectation of casual
ness.
what was that, Cadman?' inquired
his wife,
"Only our friend upstairs, Willie
Wright, speeding through the town in
his new auto, with his pretty stenog-
rapher. Right under our club win
dows, Lizzie, and then out toward
Dotsboro. You don't happen to
know If the woman lives in Dotsboro.
do you?"
"For goodness sake. Cadman, how
should | know? Do you suppose
have time to inquire the residence of
Mr. Wright's stenographer?'
well, | guess it's DOtsboro all
right said Cadman Green.
The maid who was waiting for him
to take his arms of the table before
setting down the roast listened with
an air OF judicial impassivity. The
Greens knew that their girl was
model OF discretion, and did not hest
tate to discuss anything in front OF
her And, until the meal was ended,
Margaret maintained her own reputa-
xtion.
Y When the Greens were ensconced In
their living room Margaret gathered
the pile of dishes near the kitchen
sink and shut ali the connecting doors.

dow, watched and waited for the elope-
ment Gradually, too, the news per-
meated the gossipy little town.
Wright alone remained serenely in ig-
norance OF what was being said. All
he knew was that his wife's headaches
were more frequent than usual, and
his business worries overshadoWed
that fact
In two or three days her father had
promised to place substantlal
amount to his credit. That would en-
able him to meet his obligations.
Daisy knew it and rejoiced with him.
Miss Susan, watching like cat for
her return each night, had to admit
that the girl did not look like the vic
tim of designing scoundrel.
Maybe I wronged her in my
thoughts, Robert" she said. But
there's evil in her-and you'll remem-
Der II"
sT'm sorry you think that, Susan !"
answered Robert, because, now that
she has broken with Clark, | mean to
| ask her again to be my wife.
Heaven help you IL ever you marry
her." Miss Susan answered.
It was strange. but not even the
| lynx-eyed watcher at the window de-
tected the frequency with which GER
| tain woman was to be seen passing
and repassing along the street, morn
| ing and evening. For five days Mrs.
Wright haunted the neighborhood,
mad with jealousy, and each time she
saw her husband driving Miss Dean
