RAnRster's head and kerosene pour ed into his eyes and mouth.
 The next moment Brent had pinned both of Louis arms on the table in Q vice-like grip. "oet the guns, Mollyl" he called. There is one in each pocket"
 But Molly, anticipating his order, had one of the guns, and now was taking the other ugly weapon from the helpless Louis,
 "Stand guard, Molly. First, though get Q sheet. I'm going to tie this fellow up 30 tight he'll think he can never get loose"
 Molly flew to do Brent's bidding. It was all Q nightmare. The same nightmare she had been in fer ages, it seemed. But the horror was lift- ing. Somehow, she was following Brent's commands with BwittnesB and precision.
 While Brent worked, Louis glar- cd at him through reddened eyes. Occasionally his gaze shifted to the slim, golden-h -haired girl who steadily leveled . gun at his head. His eyes were like burning coals, but the physical pain he suffered was neg ligible in comparison to his mental condition. Rage--fearful, frustrated rage--seethed within.
 "There," Brent said finally. "He can sit there and think about what c bad game of poker he plays. Mol- ly"-his voice broke--'give me the guns and then let me look ct you"
 He dropped 0 gun in each pocket, and then took both of her hands in his, staring deeply, hungrily into her eyes.
 Tears rolled down Molly's face, Brent, Brentl I knew you'd come, but when I realized you were in danger I nearly died"
 Don't cry, darling. Not here where I cna't comfort you. Wed better get Started--"
 "You thought of that Q little too late" e voice from the doorway in- terrupted.
 Brent dropped Mollys hands and renched toward his pocket.
 "You thought of that too late, too," came the voice. "Thero--that'S better your span of life is length. ened Q little by being sensible, though I don't think 1t will matter in the long run"
 "And you" stephen Black wheel cd upon Molly, you'll have to go with him. That's what you get for this nights work. If you'd been smart I might have found e way out for you. But now, since you've seen Louis and mo without masks, I guess you'll have to go walking with us, too"
 "But, Steve, you can't do thatl" Louis cried.
 "What'S come over you?" Black sneered. Had Q change of heart just because this fellow shows you what Q dumb lug you arc and the girl breaks Q lamp over your head2"
 His keen eyes had taken in the situation quickly.
 T ain't aSkin' nothin for him, Louis said. "Take these strings of me and let me at him, But the girl you don't want nothin' to happen to her. She's the girl, stevel"
