two great nations attached to one mother tongue

to the Injun pudding of New England Not forgetting

keen for action.
To one uniformed on the way of the bureaucrat the
position of those in the department of the Interior who
are responsible for delaying the development of the ata

ency of desperate world war; seems untenable But
that is the very of bureaucrats They thrive on

The only quick way of getting around bureaucratic

outer gate. There he CHANGED to see
the bargeman, Jed, come up the road.
Jed asked II he knew where the Stat
ford place was. Judge Freeman told
him that 1t was before him. Jed asked
II a badly hurt man had been taken in
there with his daughter. The judge
nodded and asked what he knew Of
the pair.
Jed said he didn't know much ex-
cept that the old mans daughter was
his girl and going to marry him some
day and he was afraid she was In
trouble. So he had left the barge to
hurry back and see If he could be of
some use.
The judge questioned him cautiously
and finally proposed that the best thing
to do would be to get the old man out
of the hands Of the Staffords, who
meant him no good. Jed seized on the
suggestion hungrily and the judge Of
fered his cooperation. He led Jed by
little frequented path to the rear of

the house and babe him wait. He
went in and sent Nell out to speak to
Jed and make sure that she wanted to
escape with him. Nell assured him
that she did. The beauty Of the home
oppressed her.
While Nell was talking with Jed
Judge Freeman was ordering his own
chauffeur to bring the car up to a cor
ner Of the driveway shielded from the
house by clump Of ancient rhOdodo-
dendrOns as large as trees. Then the
judge, surprised at his own crafti-
ness and bringing into play all the
lore he had acquired from hearing
thieves confessions, set about the bur-
glarious art of clearing the house.
Most Of the servants had been i'm
pressed into the serving Of wholesale
tea at Aunt HortenAia's convention.
The rest Judge Freeman sent on vari-
GUS errands with messages to distant
laborers on the grounds.
When the coast, or at least the stair
way, was clear, he called in his chauf-
efeur and Jed. They hurried up to
Trask's room and, lifting him in his
sheets, hurried out into the. hall and
down the stairs with him. The old
man suffered agonies from the jolts
and jars, but he smothered his grOans
somewhat. The Judge went aheadSas
a scout and warded off one maid who
ran In for Aunt HOrtensia'S paraSOl
and man who hurried back for So
riaI rppiStor of tha COuntV tO he used
in making up a committee list.
Thus Trask was, as the saying is,
spirited away without being seen by
anyone except his abductOrs. The
chauffeur ran his car from the grounds
by the tradesmen's entrance and
Judge Freeman, lingering, saw the
cloud of dust the machine raised as it
dashed north. He remained to keep
watch and to do what he could to
turn pursuit in the wrong direction.
He felt disquieted by the pallor Of
Trask and by his extreme exhaustion.
He was afraid that the old man would
not last long. He hated himself for
the thought, but he could not dismiss
the belief that it would solve all prob
lens if the wretch would pass away
in silence. If he spoke he might con-
denim himself to death in the chair ,
and take David with him.
Judge Freeman abhorred his own
deed and regretted that he could not |
punish himself publicly as severely as
he would have punished another judge |
who violated his honor so. But he

| had been father before he became a
judge, and the parental instinct over
ruled the legal obligation. He under
stood as never before the almost ire
sistible impulses that compel men to-
ward criminal acts, and he wondered
which 1t were better to do, resign hts
post as judge Of other men or remain
on the bench and administer mercy
more freely. than he had been wont to
do.
Meanwhile he smiled, though dismal
~, to think that his old head had out
witted the young wits Of Gloria. He
saw how disturbed she was by the es-
cape Of her captive, but he felt no
more remorse than one feels who takes
sharp knife away from child lest
1t wound itself as well as others.
Gloria was frantic. She was still
surrounded by hostile friends who
thwarted every effort she made to
learn the truths that were all impor-
tant to her peace Of heart.
