This tabled point, in the case of Pen
rod, was becoming more and more sen

an unpleasant conviction that he was
surrounded by vital dangers which be

the kitchen door, The encountered one
of them. His fingers very, very brief
ly closed upon something that felt
like head of wet, cold hair. 1t sank
from his touch, and there was thick
sounding thud upon the floor.
"Oof" mOaned Penrod, the question
of going out through the kitchen thus
definitely settled, and when he became
again conscious of his whereabouts he
was on the second floor at the top of
the back stairs.
Mops had driven greater than PEN
rod.
He was sorely shaken, but not dis
posed to linger in the vicinity of stairs
that led toward kitchen inhabited by
surprises Of this kind. He fled into his
fathers bed chamber, bruising him
self varlously in the passage thereto,
and, abandoning his weapons for the
moment, slid his hand along the wall
until 1t came to a forbidden object
that hung there.
1t was an Enfield rifle, a muzzle-
loading relic, last put to use by PEN
rods grandfather on a day in the year
1863, and 1t was truly unloaded. PEN
rod got 1t down, pointed the muzzle
waveringly in the general direction of
the door by which he had entered, and
whispered feebly and TREMENDOUSLY:
"Now let's see whu-what you were
goin' to do so mum-much ~
He maintained this attitude until the
weight Of the extended rifle became
lnsupportable then he grounded arms
and leaned against u bureau, breath
Ing even more vehemently than before.
His elbow touched bottle; he seized
upon 1t and smelled the contents-spir-

motions, he put himself once more In
possession of his AK and carving knife,
thrust the latter in the breast of his
jacket, and, though encountered to the
point Of difficulty by the ak, the gun
and the cnmphor bottle returned IA
the upper hall and began an advance
In force.
He went forward dozen steps with
some confidence, then halted alb
ruptly.
What stopped him was something al
together inside himself. In the dark

he thought 1t did) and there emerged
from it the shocking figure of an
old man lying In the rain at the mouth
of wind-swept cavern. The vision Of
the sawdust box-spteful, like all
other vlsions-chose this particular
moment to recur to the author Of
Harold Ramorez."
He was standing by the portal of his
own bedroom. Gasping, he hoped

wrong direction, and for the second
| time within that half-hour Periods
light went out. To person in bis
condition 1t was disaster, and, ut.
tering an exclamation of horror, he
| stumbled and fell from the chair with
a light crash.
He was up again In an instant, cut
| ting the air In all directions with the
carving knife; then he CROPPED for the
ax, found 1t, and stood still once more,
on the defensive, listening intently, ex-
pecting the worst and painting, with
an effect, upon that stiffness, almost
upronrlous.
He moved about, and cautiously felt
his way round the table and debauch-
ed to the mantelpiece, where matches
were sometimes to be found in a small
porcelain slipper, madly believed to
be decorative.
A chill struck to his spine at a verit-
able sound behind him. This one was
faint creak, the result of some cap
Hilary action In the wooden floor but
so far as Penrods nerves were con-
cerned it might have been a shot.
Wheeling, he struck q frantic blow
with the ak, which, completing fine
curve, 'miraculously failed to ampu-
tate the wielder's left foot at the
ankle, but, as an incident, permanent
ly relieved all members of the house
hold from troubling to put any more
matches In the porcelain slipper.
Thcreupon Penrod decided to 20
outdoors. The decision itself, was a
simple matter; action upon it was de-
ferred because of extreme hesitation
to move at all. But after a gruesorne
period Of inertia he began to tiptoe
backward In the direction of the door,
keeping his eyes, ak and carving knife
warily toward where the villainous
creak had sounded. Thus retrogress-
ing, he presently found himself In the
side hall. which separated all the front
part of the roomy, old-fashioned house
from the dining room and kitchen.
The doors leading to the forward
rooms were closed, and the thought OF
opening them filed him with horror;
in his minds eye he saw them, gaunt,
huge, full Of black shapes of furniture,
lurking places that might conceal

likewise has a discouraging physical

stomach-which is the seat of courage.

strawberries in the yard took curious
changing shapes, and Penrod kept q
wary eye upon them as he threaded
his way to the kitchen door.
1t opened to his hand, revealing
nothing save by reminiscent odor: but
there was dim light in the dining
room. Thither he proceeded, his I'M
nerved condition being at once i'm
proved by the sight of viands and vege-
tables, for there was a plate upon the
table at his accustomed place, and
food plenteous, though grown cold.
A conjunction of suggestions, oc-
curing as he ate, recalled something
like an echo Of Della's voice; gradu-
ally he became susceptible to an i'm
preston that his father and mother
and sister had not dined at home,
Then abruptly 1t struck him that he
might be alone In the house.
"All alone in an empty house!" As
the words formed in Periods mind. IL
was as If husky voice had uttered
them somewhere overhead. He was
grievously startled.
An empty hOuse"
At the upper end of the table was
part of cold ham, beside which Inv
large, horn-handled ~carying-knife.
and Penrod, after swallowing drvly
once or twice, lunged suddenly Mt this
implement, grasped 1t, and stood upon
the defensive. He remained In a tense
attitude, listening: and there was no
sound either within the house or with
out; nothing could have been more
ominous. Finally, carving knife in
hand, he went back to the kitchen,
where he had left the AK, and returned
to the dining room doubly armed.
Again he stood to listen.
Suddenly Penrod whirled straight
about, with ak and carving knife both
lifted to strike at something behind
him.
Nothing was there except the side
board, so he 'bout-faced suspiclously
again. Then, laying the AK upon the
table, but keeping the knife in his
right hand, he stepped upon q chair
md extended his left hand to the gas
fixture, meaning to turn the Jet on
full. But he pressed the key in the
