CHAPTER XVI.
The Gray Wolf.

AS IL CHARGED, Jasper Grierson was
in the act Of concluding a long and ap-
parently satisfactory telephone CONVEX
sation with his agent in Duluth at the
moment when the door of his private
room opened and his daughter en-
tered.
He hung the receiver on its hook
and was pushing the bracketed tele-
phone set aside when Margery crossed
the room swiftly and placed an en-
velope, the counterpart of the one left
with Raymer, on the desk
There is your notice to quit" she
said calmly. you threw me down
and gave me the double-cross the other
day. and now I've come back at you"
Another man might have FASTENED
to meet the crisis. But the gray wolf
was of different mettle He let the
envelope lie untouched until after he
had pulled out a drawer In the desk,
found his box Of cigars, and had lei
surely selected and lighted one Of the
fat black monstrosities. When he tore
the envelope across, the Photographic
print fell out, and he studied it care
fully for many seconds before he read
the accompanying documents. For lit
tie time after he had tossed the pa
pers aside there was a silence that
bit. Then he said, slowly:
$50 that's your raise, is it7 Where
does the game stand, right now?"
You stand to lose"
Again the biting silence; and then:
You don't think I'm fool enough to
give you back your ammunition 30

Brof1n got up and took nalf-burned
cigar from the ledge Of the summer
house where he had carefully laid 1t
at the beginning Of the interview.
You've got me down." he confessed,
with good-natured grin. 1.-THE man
that plays a winnin' hand against you

morning and hold all trumps, Miss
Grierson-to say nothin' of being a

he switched suddenly. "How's Mr..
Galbraith this morning?"
HE is very low, but he is conscious
again. He has asked US to wire for the
cashier of his bank to come up"
Brofin's eyes narrowed.
THE cashier is sick and can't come"
he said.
We'll, someone in authority will
come. suppose"
