Thus all three were away before Lord Arrowdaie appeared upon the scene When the great night came Chris topher could have laughed at himself for the boyish excitement which Tar through his veins.
 He arrived early at the rendezvous but not early enough to be the first on the scene. There was a gardeI with rather a high wall, and as Scar let Runner teufteufed round the cor her of the quiet street.-the gate opened, and Fitzgerald looked oui from under a dim, hanging light Stopping the car, Christopher saw that there were two other men witt him, both already wearing motor gog gles, which disguised them enough even for an appearance at the masked ball.
 "We've all been dining here," said Fitzgerald, "aad are so impatient to be cff we've been ready for the last ten minutes. Mrs Dauvray, our friends grandmother, can't bear the smell of smoke. so we've had . cigarette apiece in the garden, expecting you. I'll call Miss Dauvray. Oh, here she comes now. She must have heard the car."
 The opening door threw cut ( stream of light, and the cloaked ng ure of . tall girl appeared. attended by a maid.
 Fitzgerald would have helped her into the tonneau of the czs, but some. how she slipped past hils, and Chris. topher had an odd yet Gtrong convic. ton that she wished him to put her in. Without an instant's hesitation he held out his arm as . support for her hand, and she laid her fngerz lightly upon it. At the same time with her other hand, hidden under ( loose cloak, she thrust something as far e she could up the young mans sIesvo.

THIRD EPISODE.
The Masked Ball.

Christopher drew up Scarlet Run- ner before the door of the new Athenaeum Restaurant, and beckoned tall porter. in dark green and gold lace, to take note which he held up. But as the liveried giant would have obeyed, another motor drew up in front of Christopher's. IL contained two ladies, and as one was getting out the porter's services were due. Chris topher resigned himself to wait until good-byes were said. and as he waited he was conscious that two men, who were talking in the doorway. dis cussed him-or his car.
 One of the men Major Norburn. he knew slightly as a crony of his rich uncle's. The other, who was young. exceedingly well dressed. and so good looking as to be almost picturesque. had pale olive features which seemed vaguely familiar to Christopher. Just then the lady who was leaving the motor in front of his contrived to dis engage herself from her importunate hostess, and Christopher saw her face.
 This one was beautiful: but r. was not only her beauty which Chris tophea fcund arresting, nor was 1t h the very least the fact that she wns perfectly dressed, though he knew the difference between a womon who was well dressed and one who was not.
 As he talked on. from the tail of his eye he watched the progress of the ladJ. She had been met in the doorway by the picturesque young man, aud they were speaking together new with a kind of suppressed eager ness.

policies he has been using He says
IN effect that II an armistice is effect

He lays great stress on the fact
that the conditions TO be met will
mean the downfall of military autoc-

radical amendment TO the constitu-

the war-making and the peace max

DIDN'T THINK SHE'D
 EVER BE WELL AGAIN
"Tanlac Has Made Ne Well and Strong" Says Mrs. Hiles-Suffered 20
 Years. Gained
 29 Pounds.

T am now 29 pounds heavier than was when l began using Tanlac and 1 feel like new wo- man in every way" said Mrs. Annie Miles, residing at A45 Evergreen Avenue, Jackson vile, Fla, short time ago.
 For twenty-five long years suffered with stomach trouble and indigestion and tried every thing I ever head of for it, but kept getting worse all the time, y she continued. I just had to force myself to eat enough to keep me alive, and what little l did eat made suffer hours of agony, from gas that would rise on my stomack. l had awful headachs and dizzy spells con- stantly and was so nervous l could hardly sleep, l fell off in weight and got ss weak and mo- account that I felt 1 could never be well again.
 "One of my neighbors told me what Tanlac had done for her, and 1 started taking it. l begun to pick up right away. l kept on gaining until I had increased in weight twenty-nine pounds and my strength has come back to me in full force. l can eat anything 1 want and everything tastes good. My nerves are all right again and 1 sleep like a child at night and get up in the morning feeling fine. Tanlac has made me strong and well again. :"
 Tanlac is sold in Brinkley ex- clusively by M. B. Converse and by one established agency in every town.
