CHAPTER XII.
A Little Drop Of Something.


Reginald was sitting in his mothers
room that evening when his sister
opened the door and entered. The
girl looked about for Mrs. Curtis, then
picked up a cigarette and lit it. She
was so white and drawn looking that
her brother stared at her.
whats the matter, sis?" he asked
with no particular interest in his voice.
81 hate everybody in the world"
snapped the girl.
"Whew! That's some hate" laugh
ed Reggie.
Katherine threw herself down on
the divan.
Worst of any one I hate Paul Pen
iehaven and next-well, next l hate
Cousin john" she said between her
teeth. 81 wish. oh, how 1 wish Paul
would die tonight. I'd almost like to
kill him myself. If 1t weren't for him,
we'd all have money, and if it weren't
for that girl with him, he'd die"
"Well, might cheer you up little
if 1 told you that perhaps before long
your illustrious Cousin Paul will be
under the sod"
The girl sat up and stared at him.
'Don't be a fool, Reggie she said
with a sneer. cousin John says Paul
will be able to go out of the house very
soon, that by next week he can go
anywhere he likes"
Reginald got up lazily. He said
something under his breath that made
his sister struggle to her feet. She
stood moment and gazed with star
tied eyes at the door that had closed
Reggie on the other side of it.
"Now, what'd he mean by thatY'
she wondered duly. "What did he
mean by saying that if he could help
II Cousin Paul would never drive again
/ wonder just what he meant by thatT
Reggie knew what he meant by his
words if Katherine didn't. He intend
ed to put DR.. Paul out of the way
thus helping his mother as well as
himself. He wanted to get away from
Ithaca, TO leave the town that alway:

The least wind that blew brought bacl
the awful moment when he AMI Devol
had discovered the girl had drowned
herself, and because of his tormenting
conscience he drank more heavily eV-
cry day. After leaving his sister he
went to his room where he filed him
self up with brandy. The drunken
he got the more dim grew the picture
Of Tony's pale, terrified face.
He slept soddenly for an hour or %
and only awoke when servant raped
at the door and told him dinner wal

lay staring hopelessly about the room
Then suddenly out Of the shadows II

Now, what do you sayf"
~Say yes, darling Tony" Philip ejac-
ulated with sparkling eyes.
"Oh, that's how the land lies, is it?'
said DIR. John under his breath. Then
aloud, 'T didn't know this thing had
gotten to the darling point, Philip"
ronnibel's face grew poppy red, and
she stood with her eyes cast down and
her fingers interlocked nerVously. Oil
now she wanted to go; now her boy
had come for her.
"You will go, Tony?" begged Philip,
his face very red from Johns speech.
"If-If-n the girl stammered.
John Pendlehaven laughed.
"She can go, can't she, Paul?" he
asked. sPhIl win take good care OF
her.
Paul Pendlehaven smiled and
sighed.

Philip seized her hand to lead her
away, but Tony turned to the bed.
Then she stopped and kissed Paul PEN
dlehaven impulsiveIy.
II love you," she whispered, "and
mebbe TIN only be half an hour before
I'm back to you 4 - ssss.... !. q
For many minutes after the car
started Philip paid strict attention to
his driving, and Tonnibel allowed her
self the luxury Of taking sidelong
look at him now and then. Once
within sight Of Beebe Lake, Captain
MacCauley slowed down and stopped.
"God, how I've prayed for this min
ute" he exclaimed, turning on her
suddenly.
81 have, too" said TonnIbel In a
shy, sweet voice. II thought you'd
forgotten about me-"
"Why, / couldn't do my work half
way well, I've thought about you so
much" cried the boy, land I've been
planning lot for you and me- You
see. DR.. John is sort of a guardian
to. me, and next year I'll be twenty
three. Then have all my own money.
can get married then, If want to-"
"Oh," said TonnIbel in queer little
voice.
"Yes, l believe in early marriages"
Philip went on emphatically. Wasn't
it a queer thing that all the while
I was haunting the shore you were in
the house, my house almost? You
see, live just next door to you"
"Oh!" Tony said again. Something
had hurt her dreadfully. Something he
had said. He might be married next
year and, of course, 1t would be to
Katherine.
"And time and again I heard how
much some little girl was helping DR..
Paul." he went on. "But somehow /
never heard your name and hadn't
the last idea He stopped. Then
he slipped his arm about her. 81
didn't know she was my little girl, !"
he finished
Tony closed her eyes. All the I'M
happiness of the past weeks left her
that moment like a vanished burden.
He had said she was his little girl.
How very lovely the world was!
"Lean against me, DEAR" murmured
Philip. "And this time Tony,
don't leave me today without telling
me you love me lot"
Tony glimpsed him with one little
upward glance. Her eyes were star
bright.
81 love you mOre'n the whole world, |"
she trembled. "A1ore'n 1 know how
to tell"
1t isn't any ones affair just how
many times Philip made Tony tell him
she'd marry him, nor is it any ones
affair how many times he kissed her,
but 1t is our business to listen to
Philips conclusion.
SIN going to tell Cousin John and
Cousin Paul tonight that we're going
to be married." he said, nd Tonnibel
had no inclination to forbid him.
With dark thoughts, Katherine was
watching for them to come back again,
She saw the happy shining face of
the girl, saw Philip lift the little figure
from the car and draw her up the
steps. Her teeth came together in
sharp misery as she turned from the
window and went upstairs.

that? Come, let me get the stuff.
Together they stole back to Tomb

the medicine with him, leaving Tony
with caution not to speak of the
matter to his brother. Putting on his
clothes, John went outside and made
a tour Of the house. 1t wasn't difficult
to find the place where the man had
fallen. but there was no sign of him
anywhere.
