There Huff"" me88aB from Talbot, no word of Evening service was over when she reached St. Jude's. Tho last straggler had gone, and Ward wns not In sight She avoided the street lights. She felt quite sure that Walter was ln the vicinity, his keen eyes missing nothing. Ho hnd put his hand on her before she knew he was near, "Worshiping again!" he Jeered. "I havo not been In the church." Her quick mind was scheming desperately nhend. "I have been alono this evening. When you did not come, I " He swung her around. "You were looking for me?" "I thought you might bo here. Tou said last nlcht " The memory of the night before stung mm, ne released her wrist. "Walter, I am afraid! I tried to mako you understand last night, but you wouldn't listen. It he wcro roused, ho might be dangerous. Don't take chnnces; uoivi minK, uecauso he Is a church man " She was talking against time. She had hor plan now. "I can take enre of myself," said Huff sullenly. But he kept his place besido her as she started back. Her solicitude waa ror him, then. Sho cared, after all, But It wouldn't do to unbend too much, Elinor had treated him with a hlch hand His very pulse ached with her nearness, nut he did not touch her. He left her without even a hand-clasp. "You might wish me luck." "I wish you safety," she replied. Ho stood down In tho road, and watched her shadowy figure threading its way along tho garden paths. He had a wild Impulso to run after her, to kneel In tho earth at her feet and cry out for her old tender ness, for her wistful-eyed caresses. Then, Into his suspicious young heart crept the vision of Elinor's face when he had planned his new coup. "I shall warn'hlm," she had said. Huff's mouth was hard ns he turned and walked down tho hill. CHAPTER X. TNTO and through her garden Elinor JL walked quietly until she wns safe from surveillance. Then she ran swiftly, ruthlessly ncross the flower-beds, through tho roses. The terrace was lighted. Sho avoided It, mdhlng a detour that led by a sldo cntrani'o into old Hilary's library. For obvious reasons, old Hilary's private telephone wns in a sound-proof closet. Before Walter had taken a hundred watchful paces down tho road she had Ward at tho other end of tho lino. What with runnlnj nnd terror, sho could hardly speak. Once, long ago. she had heard a discussion between Boroday and her father about the uso of the telephone. Its substance was that when tho transmitter Is held to the chest a clear mcasago may bo sent, but t.lth the effect of distance. She held the transmitter to her brenst then, nnd It seamed to her that Ward must hear the throbbing of her heart. "Hello, hello!" came his quick response. No need o ask who It was. She knew every inflection of his voice. "This Is a friend," Elinor panted. "1 want to tell you something." "Yes?" Very Incisive now. "Tonight very soon an attempt " She stopped. What was sho doing? She, her fnthcr'a daughter, the head of the band' By naming Ward she might bo sending Walter to his death. A vision of old Hilary, gray-hended, keen-eyed, it this very telephone, flashed Into her mind, old Hllnry whose religion hod been of keeping the faith, not with his Cod, but with his men "Who are jou?" the Impatient voice SCHOOLS AND COIXE0E3 PEIRCE SCHOOL SUMMER COURSES DEOIN JUNE 2S nualneii nnd Secretarial Couries that enable youne men and women to make a good atart and rapid progreea, Valuable Instruction for taaeher. of bualne .1 Hours. 0 A M. to 1 P.

This is Ward, of Saint Jude's." Elinor quietly hung up the telephone transmitter, and mood In the darkness, her hands to her throat. Old Henrlette, ever watchful, came Inte the library beyond. Elinor could hear her wandering about, knew the moment when she discovered her wrap on a chair, heard her plaintive voice speaking through a window to tho empty terrace. Miss Elinor," she called. "Miss Ellnorl" Elinor let her go. When her shuffling footsteps had died away Elinor took tho IJ...r down. aBnm nnA Cftlled the as ?i,: .l . J0' h0U8- But tllla time ,?olt? "Irectly Into the transmitter, t ,f l8., Ellnor Kingston. Mr. Ward. 1 ., dS.1 'i'ou..nre vefy tired tonight?" I? Tired? I'm never tired."

Of course, I'll come up." He had seen her then! "I'll do my best," ho was saying. "Of course, you know I mny disappoint you. These questions that come from within, must bo nnswered In the same way. But I m coming at once." Elinor's battle was only half fought, but she hnd a grent sense of relief. Let him meet Walter on the way. So much the better. Ixt Huff know that Ward wns out, nnd tho offering presumably un guarded. He might hate the man, but no hope of a running fight with him would deter him from his main object, tho money. To save Ward Bhe wns willing, even anxious, to let Walter succeed. Women somcemes meet large crises with small vanities. But Elinor had no vanity. Without so much ns a glance nt tho mirror sho went out Into the garden to listen for Ward's step on the road. Sho knew his walk already; the forceful, cer tnln step of an energetic and purposeful man. The Illuminated dial on the steeple of tho Baptist Church showed something after 10 when Ward finally came up the hill. The relief of seeing him unharmed sent Ellnor down the terraco steps with both hnmls out. Before ho could take them. Ward wns obliged to stoop nnd depoalt on the ground nt hor feet a small box that he carried. '"The morning collection," ho said smil ing, and took her hnmls In his. Her quick nlnrm showed ln her face. "But you are reckless! To go about with so much money " Wnrd was following her up the steps. "I dare sny It Is safer with me than any place else In the world. Did any one ever hear of an assistant rector going about with a fortune In his hand?" He followed her Into the llbary and placed the box on the groat tablo where old Hilary hnd been wont to divide the nnnual earnings of the band. Ward pointed to It with his humorous smile. "Would any one suspect," he snid. "that In that box there Is a stone parish house, a new church organ and a chil dren's playground?" keen Then glancing at her with his eyes, ne was struek by her pallor, "You to ask me If I am tired?" he cried. '-Why, you poor child. It la you who are worn out Wouldn't It be better to have me come tomoffow and go over the things you-epoko about?" I think we had better talk about them now, raid Ellnor, desperately calm. At a quarter before II thst Bundny night, old Henrlette, bent on her evening task of sending Elinor to bed, wandered Into the library. She found Ward, his earnest face glowing, expounding the tenets of his fnlth from the edge of his chain and Elinor lying back with her fnco drawn, wntchlng the clock on tho mantel. Old Henrlette, astounded, withdrew, not to sleep, but with tho wakeful alertness of old age, to wander up and down the garden paths until such time as Elinor's visitor might leave. ward suddenly rcallred that he was making small headway. When at Inst he caught Elinor's cjes on tho clock ho flushed and rose. "I've done It all lery badly," he said "I seem to wnnder all about and not get anywhere. You see It's all so real to me " Ellnor hnd leaned back with closed (CONTINUED TOMORROW.) FOLK DANCING AS A HEALTHFUL EXERCISE Interesting Demonstration a Feature Meeting of Physical Directors.
