The strange voice clipped of
crisply and before Mildred could
collect her startled wits to form an
answer she heard a bang that told
her the wire connection was broken.
Her head was in a whirl as she
turned back to her work. She was
not fool enough to underestimate
the danger that threatened her.

Anyway, Harold is giving in"
she reasoned He must be if
they're afraid I'll make him talk"
She wondered if Harold had told
of her attempts to coerce him into a
confession. It hardly seemed likely.
Bending her mind back over the
past week, Mildred recalled that on
several occasions she had received
an impression of being followed
when she was with Harold.
The impression had been too
vague to disturb her. She had put
It down to nervousness and an over
worked Imagination.
But now she was convinced that
some one had been spying upon
her. Her fingers trembled as she
slid a new sheet of paper in her
typewriter and began the letter

CHE realized that matters had

threat she had Just received meant
that she must give Harold one more
chance to confess before she went
to Stephen with what she knew.
After that. whatever Harold did,
she must take the consequences.
The thought of what they might
be terrified her. for Mildred had
heard enough of underworld meth

Her employer came out of his
Office q short while later, observed
that she appeared greatly upset and
inquired what was wrong. Being de-
MED an explanation. he decided she
was i'll and advised her to go home
for the rest Of the day.
Mildred was glad to 60 She
wanted to be near her mOther-the
only protector she had,
But as soon as she reached home
she telephoned from place to place
| trying to get in touch with Harold.
She had to content herself with
leaving a message for him at the
Judson hotel.
Her mother lowered about anx-
iously while she sat at the telephone,
not satisfied with Mildred's excuse
for leaving her work.
The girls white face and dilated

did not appear to her mother to be
Ill.
It was o'clock before Harold
called her up.
I want to see you. It's terribly
important" she said breathlessly.
After dinner?" Harold suggested.
He had just returned from West
chester, where he'd been dragged
by some friends who told him he
looked as if he'd been grown in a
mushroom cellar and wouldn't let
him off, though they later regretted
their insiStenCe.
Never had anyone played a poorer
game of golf than Harold played
that afternoon.
Cant you come immediately"
Mildred urged.
I've just come off the links"
Harold explained, "but I'll only stop
for a bite afer I've changed"
I'VE turned away from the tele-
II phone and hastily removed
his tweed golhng coat and sweater
he'd worn under it.
Mildred's anxious tones had
warned him that she was deeply
troubled. He could guess that the
matter had to do with Stephen.
Something like a feeling of doom
came over him as he realized that
he was going to her, that he wasn't
going to funk it, that he even was
making haste.
A knock came on his door as he
tore off his tie and he called out
to come in, thinking it was his
valet.
In the mirror Of his dresser he
saw his visitor.
It was Huck Conner. Harold
wheeled defensively and braced him

What do you want?" he asked
challengingly.

His assurance brought a suspi-

are you up to now, Connor?" he
asked.

Huck surprised him by saying.

The "ganglion symphony"

By means of electrodes of
