the desire to set things up for his friends
at the Club this coming Sunday, and a
twenty pound roast goose, with all the
fixings, will be set before the club mem
bers and their friends as a tribute from
Mr.. G~eisenberger. Former Senator
Robert E. Hand made a call on the
Club, staying the greater Fart of the
afternoon. The genial ex-senator thor
oughly enjoyed himself. Lieutenant
Emile Fianconi of the Philadelphia
police force is the latest addition to the
Clue roster. The lieutenant and his
folks have a hobby little bungalow
called the "Bras DOR" which means
farm OF Gold" He has lately acquir-
ed a 25-foot cabin cruiser with a 6 h. p.
Csille Perfection engine which he

CHAPTER XII.
A Compromise.

The day on which Iris came Ia
Pedro's studio for her second pose was
mot that which had been appointed,
but one nearly . week later. During
the intervening period the young
painter had remained locked in the
studio a. long as daylight lasted,
emerging only at night, in company
with Leigh.
Pedro had given her no explanation
for putting her OF. simply sending
word that he could not have her at
present. but would get some work
done on the background OF the Dor
trait.
Iris had telephoned several futile In.
.vitations, and at last, catching Pedro
on the wire. had arranged for a sit.
ting. At the hour appointed. she
mounted the stairs slowly, with fast.
besting heart. starting and trembling
ct every sound within the ancient
building.
She reached the door unchallensed.
and raped upon 1t.

At last, exhausted by the long pose,

holding out her arms toward him, she
swayed slightly. and said his name in
broken voice.

her face had become. and with q little
cry he dropped his palette and sprans
to her side.

"Nita" yelled Pedro, springins
toward her.
Instantly the room was in an up
roar. all talking at once, laughing and
weeping, shouting questions, making
offers Of help. proffering food and
drink, crowding around the crone with
such clamor and persistence that Pc
dro could scarcely manage to get her
to chair. Then she sat beaming
upon them all, apparently in the best
Of health and delighted at the vel

II possible. = tribe more worn and
soiled than usual. but, otherwise, she
seemed to have suffered no harm.
"Where hast thou been? What hast

him to ind the treasure again. Thus
1t happened that in time they reached
the doorway Of the little dairy, which
Mr.. Jones recognized with a joyful
bound. and sort Of purr, which
brought the dairyman (who had spied
him through the window to the en-

A malicious smile came upon the

THEY refuse TO EAT
