CHAPTER XX-(Continueri).
She suddenly forsook her half-silent
attitude, and drew close to him with a
gesture half confidential, half appealing.
"But I can't wait until tomorrow," she
aid. "You don't know bow Important it
Is that I get possession or It today! Now
you won't bo horrid nnd stubborn, will
jou'"
"Why?" asked Craig, smiling .it her
sudden 'coquetry, anil willing to lead her
on.
"A woman's tcason because. 1 can't
tell you nil about It, today. But If you
will help me now by Just not being stub
bornthere Is nothing I wouldn't do al
most!." "Why, the 'almost'?" he parried quizzi
cally, She laid her warm hand cagerb. al
most fiercely, upon his romewhat pale
one. Her soft breath fanned his check.
"Yes! Why say "almost?' the repeated.
"You cold American men know not how
the heart beats in our sunnier clime! The
whole, wide world beckons us, baying,
Come, my children!' We have the key
to a great fortune which will bring us
happiness! And et you refuse me the
key until 'tomorrow' and you sit here
and sav, 'Why almost?' "
Itutherford suddenly awoke to the tact
that she was making love to him and
he wondered, manlike, how much thu
bluo buckle had to do with It.
He seized her hand In his own. "Do
you mean It?" he whispuicd.
"Can you not see?" he auswcied, with
meaning glance.
"But why this haste, today?" he asked,
still caressing the hand left Milling in
his owit. "Why not wait until I can
help you claim this fortune? I1 on
xnere are other and powcrrin torcesyrr
.i worn, ueur, nib earn, uiikciuk "n,witi.u
aai tYutu tliii ,i cudAiut, I'uii, 4jie.r
do not wait, and neither must wc. I
must get the buckle before they can
plan against us. I must act at once."
"Then will vou let me see j ou tomor
row?" he asked softly.
"Not tomorrow, Craig, as I shall have
to go away to obtain my property. I
shall have to go South then I will hurry
back to you'"
She must go South Craig's mind
leaped Instantly to the contradictory
news items of the morning's paper.
Helderniah was going South, on a hasty
mission, What more natural than that
this woman, his accomplice, should also
be going1, and that slip should be des
perately In need of the buckle to com
plete her chain of proofs?
Rutherford was undergoing- a complete
change of heart. He now realized, be
yond the shadow of doubt, how Infinite
ly superior was Blllle Baltantyne to Hip
woman who now contested her claim,
and seemlpgly so convincingly. He be
lieved It quite possible thnt this ad
venturess would play him ngulmt Helder
man. or Helderman agnlnst him, with
no compunction beyond her own imme
diate desires.
He gently released her hand, nnd
reached for the telephone receiver.
"Wjiat are you going to do?" she
nckeiT, again placing her hand on his
wrist.
"Why, telephone downtown." lie re
plied, casually. "Vou see, I don't keep
the buckle here In my rooms. Too many
people have evinced an Interest in It!
I have It stowed away safe In a vault
downtown, and I thought I could tele
phone "
"Why, give yourself that trouble. Craig,
dear?" She was slowly pushing the re
ceiver out of his reach, although she
never took, her eyes off his face.
''Why give yourself that trouble? Just
let me have an order ou the trust com
pany; or send your key down by your
man. with me to accompany him."
Itutherford half smiled. Her fear nf
the telephone had removed the last
lingering doubt in his mind. His voice
took on a mare business-like tone.
"No, Miss Arany, that Is Impossible.
Assuming that you are the rightful own.
er of the blue buckie. there Is another
claimant These rival claims constitute
tit.' mcrrlj n stakc-holcler. Until thpy
mo t"cl(lctt, I can drllvcr the blue buckle
to neither claimant."
Miss Arnny Mood up. Jlcr eyes shot
fire.
"You linvo been playing villi me when
t offered jou-my heart"' slin alormed.
"No, Miss Amny. It Is you tliat liavo
been playltiB with me. Yotl do not love
inc half as tniirli as-the blue bucltlc!"
"la tills final?" slip asked.
"It is," lie replied.
"You force nip then, Mr. Kutlierford,
t. demand what Is mine. I demand the
blue buckle."
"1 cannot aceedp to .lour demand, at
aiiv rate, today "
"1 must tpll nu thnt you refuse at .our
peril!" she exclaimed: and Cralpr knew
that for mien lio onoko the truth.
"Ncverthclcs, I am compelled to re
fuse," lip replied, with studied politeness.
Slio ronrlicd quickly for the note he had
laid beside hint on the table, thrust It
swiftly Into the bnff with the other papers,

A PLAN OF CAMPAIGN

his master alono In the apartment, when
tlm telephone boll rang. IJuthciford
leaned back In his chnlr and surveyed the
Instrument Just out of reach.

Nevertheless, he made no effort to get

The bell rang and then rang again. Tho

Pistol and went to Imestlgnto With the
weapon In his pocket, and much cleserlp
tlvti language readv at his tonguo's end
to launch at the intruder, he opened the
door.
Plt steal weakness Induced by over
powering amazement was all that pre
vented him shutting It again. The grnv
gown, the black hat, and the cluster o'f
violets told him that his locent, dls
quieting visitor had returnrrt. vi,n. ,-
struggled with himself fv.,- .n..k

"Mr. Itutherford?

opened the door to Rllllc Hallantvnp
"Am I seeing double today?" li0 talrt
weakly, nnd collapsed Into a straight
chair near the door.
"Oh! Vou ate ill! I ,nve been m,

she begged, coming toward lilm, her
hands clasping nnd unclasping nervouslv
while her anxious ryes studied ids faie
Intently. She seemed to have Blown sud

"It's n kind of a crick in .,. i i.

He endeaored to rise easily, but made
a wry; face in spite of himself. She was
Instantly at tils sdilp. helping him.
"Please let me help ou over tu our
big chair," she said. "Oh, I'm so sorry
to have disturbed you!"
Rutherford laid his band as easily as
possible on her shoulder. With her strong
young hands supporting lum, tic let her
lead him back to Ills chair He saw the
rich red blood rush to her cheeks, but
she never faltered In her setr-lniposed
task.
"There!" she said, with h little slch
"There!"
The second satisfied little exclamation
came when she tucked n cushion behind
him. and watched him lean against it
Craig was In the seventh heaven. There
Is nothing a man loves mi much as to

If It Is done by some attractive nnri ..
slve young woman in whom he Is inter

sweet womanliness which, by a sort of
Intuition, knows iit onco the right one
of the dozens of delightfully feminine
means to make men happy.
"I shouldn't have come up I shouldn't
have come up at all jou see. but the
clerk said he hail Just seen your man

"He Is here?"
"He Is waiting In the reception loom
Indeed, I am so sorry that we have had
to disturb you again that you are hurt

Her hesitating explanation came to a
sudden stop. Craig drifted out of his
selfish state of bliss to the realization
