Tie document was still lying on
the table, when Hugh produced his
revolver. He knew there was foul
play about, and the madness Of what
he had suddenly made up his mind
to do never struck him; being that
manner Of fool, he was made that
way. But he breathed plous prayer
that he would shoot stralght-and

were almost simultaneous, AID the

round the. room. He timed the blow
at Laklngton1 to a nicely; he hit him
straight on the point Of the jaw and
he felt: the nun so down like log.
Then he grabbed at the paper on the
table, which tore in his hand, and
picking the dozed signer up bodily,
he rushed through the window onto
the lawn. There was not an instant
to be lost; only the inlpossibuity OF
seeing when suddenly plunged into
darkness, had enabled him to pull the
thing Off so far. And before that ad-
vantage disappeared he had to be back
at. The Larches with his burden, no
light weight for even man Of his

But there seemed to be no pursuit,

The "Anti -Vamping" Bill.-A most
unusual. measure IS the ".anti-varrp-
ing" bill introduced in the senate Of
West Virginia by Senator Harmer of
Clarksburg. With the announced OBJ
ject of protecting the sanctity of the
home, this measure would give unique
power to any husband or wife. 1t
provides that if a husband or wife
have reason to believe that another
man or woman is about to ''vamp' his
or her matrimonial partner, he or she
may send a written notice to the
"vamp" to refrain from any commun-
ication whatever with said husband
or wife" If a man or woman who
has received such a notice should per-
sist in "associating or, communicating
with the wife or husband In regard TO
.whomi he or she has been warned, he
or she will be subject to fine up 20

Such a law would not accomplish
enough to be worth while. Flirtations
of married people cannot be stopped by
law. Might as well try to- prevent
mouth breathing by statute. IN some
cases such measure would do much
harm and no good. Few husbands and
wives. do not have some social asso-
ciates among the opposite sex. Such
a law would be foolish weapon in
the hands of the suspicious husband
or wife and might. lead to a vast lot Of
trouble. Judge Meniminger observed
In the Bowers case some years ago,
that husband should be complement
ed when his wife is admired by other
men. The same dictum Is equally ap-
plicable to the admired husband. This
is not the Orient where the wife is
yelled to all but her husband and close
male relatives. The, Wheeling, West
Virginia, Intelligencer sizer up the
situation very we'll: ttThe anti-vamp'
law would certainly add to. the 'gayety
would reduce the evil at which it is

I His host smiled absentmintedly,
and walking to the window, stared
through the gathering dusk at the
house opposite, half hidden in the
trees. And Hugh, who was watching
him from under lowered lids, saw him
suddenly clench both hands In a ges-
ture of despair.
1t cannot be said that dinner was
q meal Of sparkling gaiety. Mr.. Ben
ton was palpably Ill at ease. and be-
:yond few desultory remarks spoke
hardly at all; while the girl, who sat
opposite Hugh. though she made one
or two valiant attempts to break the
long silences, spent most Of the meal
in covertly watching her father. II
anything more had been required to
convince Drummond Of the genuine
ness Of his interview with her at the
Carlton the preceding day, the atmos-
pliere at this strained and silent party
supplied it.
AS II unconscious Of anything pecu-
liar he rambled on In his usual In
consistent method, needless of wheth-
er he was answered or not; but all
the time his mind was buslly working.
He had already decided that Rolls
Royce was not +he only car on the
market which could break down mys-
teriouslr, and witt the, town so far
away, his. host could hardly fall to
ask him to stop tile night. And then
he had not yet quite settled how
he proposed to- have a closer look ct
The Elms.
At length the meal was over, and
the maid, placing the decanter in
front Of Mfr Benton; withdrew from
the room. ::
you'll have glass Of port, Captain
Drummond?" remarked his host, re-
moving the stopper, and pushing the
bottle toward him. An. old pre-war
wine 'whlcii.I can. youck: for"

less fingers breaking the finger-bOwl
IN. front Of him, while every vestige
Of color left his face.
'.It's something these days to be
able to say that" remarked Hugh,
pouring out himself q glass. wine.
Miss Benton?" He looked at the girl,
who was staring fearfully out Of the
window, and forced her to meet his
eye. ut will do you good" IL,
His tone was compelling. aud after
moments hesitation, she pushed
the glass over to him. "Will you pour
1t out?' she said, and he saw that she
was trembling all over.
ibid you-did you hear-anything?"
With a vain endeayor to speak calmly,
his host looked at Hugh.
"That night-bird?' he answered
easily. "Eerle noises they nuke, don't
they? Sometimes In France, when
everything was still, and only the
ghostly green flares went kissing up,
one used to hear EN- Startled nerv-
Gus sentries out Of their lives" He
talked ON, and gradually the color
canfe back to the other mans face.
But Hugh noticed that he drained his
port at gulp, and Immediately re-
filed his glass.
Outside everything was still; no
repetition of that short, stranglec cry
again disturbed the silence. With
the training bred Of many hours in
No Mans Land Drummond was lis
te,iing, even while he VAS speaking,
for the faintcSt suspicious SOund-but
he heard nothing. The soft whisper

half to himself, while his jaws set

"Oh! quick, quick" the girl urged
in an agony. "They may be here at
any moment" She dragged him to
the door, and together they forced
the man into the car.

a grin. land If you see him tomor-
row-don't ask after his jaw. &.
Goodnight, Phyllis"
With quick movement ne raised
her hand to his lips; then he slipped
In the clutch and the car disappeared
down the drive.
He felt 4 sense Of elation and Of
triumph at having won the first round,
and US the car whirled back to Lon
don through the cool night air his
heart was singing with Joy Of action.
And 1t was perhaps as we'll for his
peace of mind that he did not witness
the scene In the room at The Elms.
LakIngton still lay motionless Oh
the floor; Peterson's cigar still glowed
steadily In the darkness. It was hard
to believe that he had ever moved
from the table; only the bullet I'm
bedded in tree proved that some
body must have got busy. Of course,
it might have been the girl, who was
just lighting another cigarette from
the stump of the old one.
At length Peterson spoke. "A
