Keep quiet, Allenw Then she turned
to young Mr.. Chester with a teassuring
air.

She flashed me glance of approval
and apology, although l well knew that

chose. But at least | had declared my
own attitude, and again l felt my
fathers hand pressing my shoulder, and
knew that even through his fear for me
he approved my stand.
Lillian Looks Ahead.
"But we are wasting time" Lillian de-
clared. "Mr. Chester, how good an actor
are your"
"a very poor one" the young man an
swcred with sincerity III his tones.
with such modesty, you're extremely
likely to be a good one" Lillian re-
torted. "But honestly, now, don't you
think you could stage convincing road
bandit hold-up for the benefit of Mr..
Smith tomorrow night?"
81 could do anything to clip that fell

and that's exactly what j want you
to do. First OF all | am going to ask
you to interview Mr. Briggs, Smiths
employer, early tomorrow morning and
see that our precious friends every
movement is watched. Then, when he
starts over here tomorrow night-as he
surely will-stage hold-up along the
road, take any money he has to make it
realistic, but be sure to frisk him for re-
volvers.

Mr.. Drae murmurcd, but Lillian threw
him wrathful glance because of his
frivolity, and he subsidized.
To her, when she is absorbed in an
important problem, levity is an unpar-
donable sin, but Allen Drake is law
unto himself. So he returned her angry
look with lazy, impudent grin which
she ignored, turning her back upon him,
and giving her attention to Tom Ches-
ter. The young man had risen at her
intimation that he would not be needed
longer, and was evidently waiting for o
more definite dismissal.
Remember Lillian sounded q last
warning note. Don't underestimate
Smith. He's gifted lad. Madge, will
you let MIR. Chester out?"
Her query was apparently the most in
nocent, matter-of-fact thing imaginable,
but l caught the merest flicker of her
eyes as she turned them toward Allen
Drake and guessed that she had deliber-
ately sent me to the door because she
thought my doing the honors for Tom
Chester would annoy the vanity of the
brillian conceited government agent.
| Lillian admires Allen Drake, but his
vanity is an abomination to her, and she
never loses an opportunity to wound it

l rose from my seat at my fathers

annoyed at Lillian, and went into the
hall with Tom Chester. He retrieved
his hat and coat from the table and
turned to me rs l slipped back the
latch on the door to say tensely, ierkly:

He was in the doorway, now, tower
ing above me, his boyish face stirred
with emotion.
"Thcn, Just remember" he said "that

near you until he's put me out of com
mission first"
And then he bolted through the door

the fact that the two men were never

suggestive. So were the tinted spec
