an idiot, and called himself that and
other names. And as the silence con-
tinued, and the impassive woman in
the easy-chair remained impressive, he
began to wonder what had led him to
be such fool. What had brought him
back to this absurd place and caused
him to be watching this absurd wom-
an taking nap in chair? In brief:
What the devil did he mean by it? He
had not the slightest interest in Mrs.
Horner's naps-or in her teeth, which
were being slightly revealed by the I'M
conscious parting of her lips, as her
breathing became heavier.
How long was he going to sit here
presiding over this unknown woman's
slumbers? 1t struck him that to make
the picture complete he ought to be
shooing flies away from her with q
palm-leaf fan.
Mrs. Horner's parted lips closed
again abruptly, and became COM
pressed; her shoulders moved little,
then jerked repeatedly; her small
chest heaved; she gasped, and the
compressed lips relaxed to a slight
contortion, then began to move, whis-
pering and bringing forth indistln-
guishable mutterings.
Suddenly she spoke in loud, husky

Georges drawn eyelids twitched /;
his misted glance rested fieetingly up
on the two protesting motorists, and
the old imperious spirit within him
fiickered up in single word. Lying
on his back in the middle of the street,
where he was regarded by an increas-

he spoke this word clearly from a
mouth filed with dust, and from lips
smeared with blood.

CHAPTER XIII.

Eugene's feeling about George had
not been altered by his talk with Kin
ney in the club window, though he was
somewhat disturbed. Kinney had rep
resented George as new George
at least in spots-a George who was
proving that decent stuff had been hid
in him; In fact, George who was do
ing rather a handsome thing in taking
a risky job for the sake of his aunt,
poor old silly Fanny Minafer! Eugene
didn't care what risks George took, or
how much decent stuff he had in him;
nothing that George would ever do In
this world or the next could change
Eugene Morgan's feeling toward him.
If Eugene had wished, he could cas-
lily have taken George out of the nitro
glycerin branch of the chemical works.
Always interested in apparent impos-
sibilities of invention, Eugene had en-
c0uraged many experiments in such
groupings as those for the discovery of
substitutes for gasoline and rubber:
and, though his mood had withheld the
information from Kinney, he had re-
Gently bought from the elder Akers
substantial quantity of stock on the
condition that the chemical company
should establish an experimental labo-
ratory. He intended to buy more;
Akers was anxious to please him; AMI
a word from Eugene would have
placed George almost anywhere in the
chemical works. The possibility just
edged itself into Eugene's mind; that
is, he let it become part of his percep-
tons long enough for it to prove to
him that it was actually a possibility.
Then he half started with disgust that
he should be even idly considering
such { thing over his last cigar for the
night, in his library. "No" And he
threw the cigar into the empty fire.
place and went TO bed.
His bitterness for himself might
have worn away, but never his bitter
ness for Isabel. He took that thought
to bed with him-and it was true that

Eugene might not have done the ODD
thing he did that day. He was an adj
venturer; if he had lived in the six
teenth century he would have sailed
the unknown new seas. but having
been born ia the latter part Of the
nineteenth, when geography was a
fairly well-settled matter, he had be-
come an explorer in mechanics. But
the fact that he was a "hard-headed
business man" as well as an adyen-
turer did not keep him from having a
queer spot in his brain, because hard
headed business men are as suscep-
tible to such spots as Adventures are.
Two weeks after Isahel's death, Flu
gene was in New York on urgent BUSH
ness and found that the delayed ar
rival of steamer gave him day with
nothing to do. His room at the hotel
had become intolerable; outdoors was
intolerable; everything was intolera-
bic. 1t seemed to him that he must
see Isabel once more, hear her voice
once more; that he must find some
way to her, or lose his mind. Under
this pressure he had gone, with COM
plete scepticism, to '.trance-medium'
of whom he had heard wild accounts
from the wife of a business acquaint-
ance.
The experience had been grotesque,
and ne came away with an encourage
ing message from his father, who had
failed to identify himself satisfactor-
lily. but declared that everything was
son higher plane" in his present
state of being, and that all life was
continuous and progressive" Mrs.
Horner spoke OF herself as a
"psychic;" but otherwise she seemed
oddly unpretentious and matter-of-
fact; and Eugene had no doubt at all
of her sincerity. He went TO Mrs.
Horner's after his directors meeting
today. He used the telephone booth in
the directors room to make the ap-
pointment; and he laughed feebly at
himself, and wondered what the group
of men in that mahogany apartment
would think If they knew what he was
doing. Mrs. Horner had changed her
address, but he found the new one,
and somebody purporting to be niece
of hers talked to him and made an APP
pointment for "sitting" at five O'Clock.
Mrs. Horner appeared in the door,
way, wan and unenterprising look
ing woman in brown, with thin hair
artiflcially waved-but not recently
and parted in the middle over blush
forehead. Her eyes were small and
seemed weak, but she recognized the
visitor.
"Oh, you been here before" she said,
in thin voice, not unmusical. II rec

"Yes, quite On long time"

was disappointed. Anyway, you was

said. "Shall We"
"All right" she assented, dropped
into the leather chair, with her back to
the shaded window. "You better set
down, too, reckon. hope you'll get
something this time SO you won't feel
cross, but l dunno. I can't never tell
what they'll do. Well"
She sighed, closed her eyes. and was
silent, while Eugene, seated in the stiff
chair across the table from her,
watched her profile, thought himself
