Philip went away a little happier aNd

CHAPTER x-continued.


That afternoon he met Captain Mac
Cauley on State street The sight Of
Reggie's slim staggering figure
brought Philip to a quick decision. He
stopped directly in front cf Brown,
and. as 1t was the first time they'd met
since the memorable moment when
Reggie had been flung in the lake, they
looked embarrasSedly into each others
eyes.

asked Philip, his voice sharply toned.
Reggie gathered together his cour-
age and curled his lips. Why should
he be afraid Of a Salvation army cap
tain even If he were rich?
"It looks like it, doesn't it?" he
sneered. "And it's none of your busi-
ness, anyway"
"It's my business about how you
treat Tony Devon" Philip began, but
Reggie's fresh outburst cut off his
words.
..Nobody'll ever treat her any way

dead, drowned In the lake.
A Mortified expression passed over
Philips face. Then he realized that
Reginald didn't know of Tony DevOn's
presence in the Pendlehaven home.
"She's better off then than she was
the last time you saw her." he said
and whirled away.
Twenty minutes later Philip was
talking to John Pendlehaven.
"You promised last night I could see
her today" he pleaded. "Pll promise
only to stay few minutes. May.I go
up?"
"No; I'll cali Tony down." was the
reply. 81 don't want Paul disturbed
today"
When the boy and girl stood facing
each other, embarrassment kept them
silent for some moments. Philip had
decided to find out whether Tony knew
of Reginald Browns connection with
The Pendlehavens, although he was
positive in his own mind she did not.
'It's a nice day." he blurted out,
and Tonnibers low "yes" was her

Meanwhile Tonnibel looked up with
inouiring eyes as DR.. Pendlehaven
walked in. He had closed Philip on
tha n..4sssS UI the door.
The girl gave him a slight smile.
The doctor came forward and took
hold of her hand.
"Paul," he asked, looking at his
brother, "could you spare our little girl
for an hour? want her to go out. :"
Tonnibel, remembering her promise
to Philip. rose to her feet. Il don't
want to-" she trembled. I'D rather
stay here. I'd really rather stay here"
Pendlehaven went to the door and
opened it, and Philip walked in.
Here's a young man, Miss Tony
Devon" he said, laughing at the sight
of the girls puzzled face, "who tells
me he wants you to drive with him.
Now, what do you say?"
"Say yes, darling Tony" Philip ejac-
ulated with sparkling eyes.
"Oh, that's how the land lies, is it?"
said DR.. John under his breath. Then
aloud, 81 didn't know this thing had
gotten to the darling point, Philip"
Tonnibel's face grew poppy red, and
she stood with her eyes cast down and
her fingers interlocked nervously. Oh!
how she wanted to go; now her boy
had come for her.

"If-if-" the girl stammered.
John Pendlehayen laughed.
"She can go, can't she, Paul?" he
asked. ''Phil will take good care of
her."
Paul Pendlehaven smiled and
sighed.
"Of course, she can go! She ought

I've told her that every day. Go along,

One late afternoon Philip MacCau-

sirous of seeing Tony Devon. Rather
Inc saw him guiding his car up the
roadway and ran to the door to meet
him. Her smile was especially radiant,
for she had begun to lose her fear
about Tonnibel's influence over him.
"Sit down, Phil" she entreated.
Mothers sick today. Reggie almost
sets her into fits.'
Philip still remained standing.
"And you've kept away so much,
dear boy" complained the girl. 1T
seems you don't care for us any more"
II do, though, but I've been busy"
replied Philip, not able to think of any
other excuse.
"But you've always been busy, more
or less" the girl shot back. "and yet

laughed.
"The fact is, l came to see her to-
day." he exclaimed.
Katherine went wax white.
"What do you want to see her for?"
she asked sharply.
"Oh, just to talk to her." replied
MacCauley, awkwardly.
Katherine shook her head.
81 don't believe you can" she pro-
tested obviously. "Cousin John won't
let any of us go up to Paul's room,
and she never comes down any more"

boy.
