She put up her hand to her head.
Her fingers came away red.

creases in it and her hair was
done IN a pancake on the top Of
her head.

and a pan Of water" said the man
with the iron gray hair. The wo.

there, still half dazed, hating the
fetid floor, the smell of blood and
the icy water on her face and
shoulders.

said not a word but watched the
man as he lifted Lane to n Of
the sagging chairs.

bitterly. you've done enough"
She shrank from his fingers. The
man said roughly. Hold still. you.
I'll fix this cut"
The woman stood by regarding
the tableau curiously out of her
beady eyes.
Once she put out a soiled hand
and touched Lanes petal soft
dress.

Lane looked at her with some
thing like hope. The woman
seemed stupid but not unkind.,
But presently she waddled away
again. leaving Lame alone with
the two men and the girls heart
sank. She began to feel des-
perately sick. Her head was
giddy and q hot pain burned in
one temple. Her teeth began to
chatter as II with ague.
Get her a SHAWL" commanded
the iron gray man. The man with
the cats eyes went out, grum-
bling. Lane closed her eyes. The
room whirled around her.
Now tho second man was fol-
lowing tho drst from the room.
"We're not supposed to hurt her

one presently threw over her

1t was like.

turned a quiet, commanding voice
said, Don't move, girl. We've

Lightning-like, she wheeled In
time to get a dim fash of two
grim men in evening clothes. One
was armed. This she saw before
the black silk scarf was slipped
over her eyes.
"Grab her. Lem" one of the
men said gruffly. A hand
clamped itself over her mouth.
Strong, unkindly arms lifted her.
She felt the night air on her face.
She kicked violently. One silver
pump fell off, unnoted. Strug.
Cling still. she was lifted up. All,
a car seat. The smell of Russian
leather, Of cigarets. The thrum
of an expensive motor. Those
iron hands still clamped her
wrists. Her face was utterly
yelled in that black silk. She
heard the engine slide into sec

car glided over the ruts of the
entrance-yes, that was a remem-
bered bump! She knew they were
skimming along the turnpike.
But whether the road led east or
west she could not say.
The man on the seat beside her
released her hands. He said with
ironic p~oliteness. "Do you no good

New York, July 25.-Those canny
book sleuths who hunt down rare
editions for bibliophileS are Sher-
locks whose adventures are rarely re-
counted.
They follow tireless trails over the
earth. often covering their tracks to
throw off rivals. Except in the small
world of collectors, little is known of
them. Their days are spent prowling

We know you right enough.
Names Barrett, amt it,"
She nodded and felt fresh terror
at this disclosure.
"Shut your trap now and don't
bother me-" the man said with
engaging frankness. "You can
have your say after a WHILE"
THEY rode thereafter In silence
broken only by the grunt OF
the mar in the front seat. Right
here?" LANE heard the man be-
side her ask as the car slowed. A
grunt from the front seat was the
reply. The car seemed to turn.
For a few minutes they trav-
eled under branches bending so
low Lame could feel them scrape
the tonneau. Then the car
bumped over a deeply rutted lane
and came to a standstill.
"Out here" commanded the
surly voice.. Lane felt hersel:
lifted, carried. No use, she
thought, to cry out now. She was
in the hands of the enemy.
The man carrying her went up
three steps that creaked under
him. A door swung on protesting
hinges and the fetid air of an
overheated, underventilated room
assailed Lanes nostrils.
Clumsy fingers fumbled at the
tht knot of the black silk scarf
which bound her eyes. The girl
gasped with relief as the fasten-
ings gave way. She was shiver.
ing all over now. Even the hot
air Of that fusty room did not
serve to warm her. Her teeth
chartered as with ague as she
glanced around. 1t was a boxlike
room in a cheap house. Two mis-
sion chairs with collapsing springs
stood in front of a gas CRATE. A
bright green carpet of furious
pattern adorned the floor. Every
thing was very dirty-windows,
limp curtains, the floor itself. All
this Lame took in in the split
second before the man spoke.
"Sit down." he growled at her.
Because her knees would no
longer obey her the girl did as
her captor commanded. An in
congruous figure she was in that
sordid place, with her frills. her
bare shoulders.
She stared at the man who had
carried her. The other one could
be heard in the hall outside,
shouting orders at some unseen
henchmen.
The man returning Lanes
stare was iron gray. loosely

Mrs. Charles Sheldon, of Milton, Mass, is arranging to tour h. terior Alaska this summer, her particularly interest drawing her to Mckinley National Park. There it was that her now deceased hus- band spent his early years in ex- ploration work and promotion of the Park as one of the great tour lst charms of the United States.
 >><<
 A Washington newspaper has published an analysis of old age relief laws, as prepared by Miss Miley M. Pope, Director of Social Welfare, state of California. She starts out by saying: Tn 1915, when Alaska enacted a law for aid to aged pioneers in their homes, a national movement to- ward old age assistance was ini- tiated. Similar laws have fol- lowed in various States, until at the present time we find IA states with legislation for old age as- sistance. In 13 other States sim liar proposed laws are before the 1881 Legislatures for consideration. Many of the earlier projects show ed an experimental attitude, but all agree in certain basic points. Need is the first requirement. in every State, as the applicant must be unable to maintain himself, and have no responsible relatives who can support him."
