standing in front OF the station Sat
friday night, also complained that it

IN each tank about Is gallons Of
coal oil had been poured instead Of
gasoline. as a result of an error of an
employe Of the oil company which sup

GERS lost no time in having the tanks
drained and gasoline substituted. and
were astOnished when told by the oil
company that the mistake had been
practised on about 30 cars, all of which

said. somewhat unsteadily. but turning

"Oh. ma am-snd when will II be-"
the girl asked, anxiously.

operation. but not such a dangerous

YOU are near-only. Jennie, please don't

All the afternoon she waited. some

other times gazing from the window

But nothing came. and when the man

vigil and went to bed. For q while the
darkness about her seemed inscribed in
letters OF fire with the words Phil had

lions. she slept-an unhappy slumber
filled with uneasy dreams
And while she dreamed. men OF an
uptown detective bureau gathered in
the corridor OF a flaShily handsome
apartment house where an ashen-faced
negro elevator boy took them upstairs
to q door that had been broken in.
