Doctor Lund's paeadlngs, for the pur-
pose of paying a visit to the Lund
home.
The prospect of being with the man
she loved for a few days Of quiet, In
his own beautiful home. appealed
strongly to the girl, and when she
broached the subject to Flip the old
clown could advance no valid reason
why she might not go.
She had just returned from a visit
to Lucille in the horse tent when her
suspicious were aroused by seeing n
the tent where she had just left her
pet. Peg ran to her trunk and got a
revolver, more as matter of precau-
ton than with any thought that she
would have use for it.
When she reached the horse tent
she found two men at Lucille's head,
and in the same glance she noticed
that one Of them was attempting to
pour something from bottle into the
filly's mouth. In twlnkling Peg
raised her revolver and fred without
taking careful aim. The bottle
dropped from the mans hand and the
two thugs ran out Of the tent through
an opening at the opposite end
The sound Of Pegs pistol shot
aroused the circus folks, and when
they nocked into the horse tent they
found Peg with her arms around Luz
Giles neck, excitedly calling for Jer-
ry. The jockey soon entered and when
Peg explained the reason for her ex-
element and pointed to the broken
bottle near the horses feet the boy
was deeply puzzled
Somebody wants to get this mare.
that's sure" said the boy after he had
examined the broken bottle. There
was some dope In here strange to me.
But I'll keep my eyes open hereafter
Miss Peg, and you needn't worry"
The incident greatly upset Peg and
made her seriously apprehensive. Had
she not promised young Doctor Lund
that she would accept the invitation
that had come to her from Mrs. Lund
the girl would not have visited the
Lund home. But the arrangement
was made and when Doctor Lund
called for her in his automobile that
morning there was nothing to do but
go.
Take good care of yourself, little
girl said Flip as he babe Peg good

by. Don't stay too long away for l
shall be lonely without you" And the
old clown stood watching the automo-
bile until 1t disappeared from view.
The crafty Mrs. Lund was to all APP
pearances bubbling with politeness
and cordiallty when the circus girl en-
tered the Lund home.
''We are so glad to have you with
u.s." said Mrs. Lund with her pleas
ATTEST smile. "Our boy has wanted
you to come before now. but Doctor
Lund would not consent to your leav-
ing the show. You are such an attrac-
ton. you know, that the doctor is
afraid it will hurt the business if you
were to be very long away"
Young Lund had sent the girl into
the house ahead of him. and he, CON
sequently, did not hear the rather
strange greeting that the girl received.
But Peg noticed that in spite of her
evident effort to be agreeable. Mrs.
Lund could not refrain from sarcasm.
well, I'll not stay very long away
from the old show" said Peg. Doctor
Lund needn't be afraid of my hurting
his business-I'll go right back if you
say the word"
'Oh, no, my dear" said Mrs. Lund
Il didn't mean anything like that. I
didn't think how disagreeable my
words would sound"
But at that moment young Doctor
Iund pnfprad tho rnnrn on1 tho cuh
ject was quickly changed. After chat
ting with Mrs. Lund few moments
the young folks left the room for a
stroll in the garden. and Mrs. Lund
walked to the window. Looking out
she saw young Lund's machine stand
ing where he had left it, while near
IL were Chockro and two of his thugs.
evidently waiting orders from 1.-THE
boss"
Mrs. Lund walked out to the ma
chine and said 10 the Hindu:
"She is here in the house. Doctor
Lund is away and the coast is clear
You sneak up to the store room and
hide. I'll bring the girl there, and you
lock her in"
Then the woman returned to the re-
ception hall. She had barely entered
the door when the maid ushered In
two policemen who had asked for Mrs.
Lund.

the ring with money 10 bet on her
own horse. There was a preliminary
battle OF money-with Mrs. Lund's
own soE betting against her.
I'm going to back your horse"
young Lund said to Peg, as she flew
past him in the crowds before the
grand stand. This was the first ink
ling Peg had that young Lund was in
Tia Juana-and 1t was the first time
she had seen him since that afternoon
in the Lund home when he had left
Peg talking with his mother.
Too much excited to give any heed
to the incident, Peg hurried away to
the paddock and gave Jerry his final
talking to. And Jerry said to her:
'Tll win this race if its the last thing
l do In my life"
Then Jerry started for the Jockeys
room. Arriving there he was making
his final preparations, looking over his
