"We thought you might like to go
■with us," said Carrie, smoothly. ' You
and Louise are such good friends and
mother and I have never seen the
apartment."
"I'd love to go." said Helen, warm
ly. "It was so nice of you to stop
for me, Carrie."
"You can thank me for that, put
in old Mrs. Curtis. "I thought it
would be nice for us to have you
along, so that you might profit by any
advice I may give Louise. No doubt
she needs it, if she is as extravagant
now as she was before she was
married."
"Oh, but, mother, she had her own
money then," protested Helen; "sure
ly you won't say anything to hurt
lier." Somehow Helen felt that Mrs.
Curtis might wound Louise in some
manner, she had never cared much
whether her shots had hurt Helen,
and Helen felt that she did not ap
prove of Louiso any more than she
did of her.
Mrs. Curtis vouchsafed no answer
to Helen's question, and Helen was
forced to be contented, whether she
felt so or not. Carrie said something,
but continued gazing out of the win
dow in a superior way, and there was
an uncomfortable silence.
"If you'll excuse me a minute,"
Helen remarked hastily, "I'll get
ready to go out."
"Don't go and fuss up," Bald Carrie,
turning from the window to look at
Helen's dress skeptically. "What you
have on is plenty good enough; just
put a coat over it. We'll have to take
the five o'clock train, so we haven't
much time."
"I won't keep you ten minutes,"
she said, rising and hurrying along
the hall into her room. In less time
than that she was back In the living
room drawing on her gloves.
"All ready," she said, smiling. "Let
me help you with that coat, mother; I
It looks heavy."
Mrs. Curtis was already buttoning
it, however, when Helen reached her
side.
"I guess I'm not quite decrepit,"
she said testily. I'm all right."
"Is that your new suit?" said Car
rie as they were going down in tho
subway. "I thought they were wear
ing very little skunk this year."
"They told me that it was fashion
able when I bought it." said Helen
quietly, although her cheeks burned.
"It wasn't on the suit then."
"No, 1 had it put on. I like the fur
BO much better than a plain velvet
collar."
"I might have some fur put on my
suit. Was it expensive?"
Helen hesitated. She hated to toll
Carrie what she had paid for the fur.
In fact she had never told Warren
and -now that Carrie had cornered
her she hardly knew what to say.
"Of course if there's any secret
about it," said Carrie stiffly, "don't
bother about it."
"There's no reason in the world
why I shouldn't tell you what it
cost," said Helen, "although I was
very extravagant, I'm afraid. It was
twelve fifty a yard."
"Mercy," said Mrs. Curtis, turning to
look disapprovingly at Helen, "money
seems to mean nothing to you. I
hope, Carrie that you don't Intend to
spend any price for fur."
"The house is very much like our
apartment," said Helen, as they
walked toward it. "ldo hope Louise
is in."
Carrie looked up at the house dis
approvingly. "It's a new one. I'll
warrant she pays more than you do."
Helen did not answer, and Carrie
looked at her suspiciously.
"Does she?" she queried.
"I really don't know, Carrie, Louise

WEDNESDAY EVENING,
never mentioned what Bob pays for
the rent."
"I suppose that idea of living in a
boarding house till Fall was her idea,"
commented Mrs. Curtis. "That must
have been a big expense to Bob."
Helen had rung the bell outside of
the apartment and a moment later
Delia opened the door. She smiled
when she saw Helen, and answered
Helen's query as to whether or not
Mrs. Curtis was in with an affirma
tive. In Louise's charming living
room, waiting for Louise to appear
Carrie and her mother had plenty of
time to take everything In and Helen
saw that they were doing it.
Helen was glad that they said noth
ing, and Louise herself came in in a
few minutes, and greeted them cor
dially.
"I'm so very glad you have come
to see me at last," she said sweetly.
"Do you like my little place; would
you like to see it?"
"Yes, indeed; we're very much in
terested, of course," asserted Carrie.
"It will seem like an old story to
you, Hrlen," said Louise laughingly.
"However, I guess you'll be able to
stand it."
"You know I never get tired of
looking at your things," reproached
Helen, rising and following them out
of the room.
"White furniture?" said Carrie with
a rising Inflection. "Very Impractical,
I should say. Circassian walnut
would have been better."
"Of course, you think I am foolish.
I do myself, but I just felt that I
must have it. Haven't you ever felt
that way'.'" turning to Carrie impul
sively.
"I can't say that I have. If so, I
always convince myself that it is
foolish, and that's ail there is to it.
But the furniture certainly is effect
ive."
"Isn't it, though; and the colorings,
you llko them? Bob had a decorator
do this room, and I'm so fond of it.'
Holen saw the two women exchange
furtive looks. Certainly their Im
pression of Louise's extravagance
would be sure to grow into a con
viction. But what was her surprise to
hear Bob's mother say, with actually
a smile of indulgence on her face:
"Well, Bob certainly will learn
some day. I never knew him to be
so thoughtful before he was married.
You certainly must have bewitched
him, Louise."
Carrie did not unbend at all, but
Mrs. Curtis seemed to genuinely like
Louise. She admired the apartment
and all its furnishings, and finally
when they were back in the living
room would have accepted Louise's
invitation to stay and have tea had
not Carrie taken things into her own
hands and declined.
"But Bob will be home soon, and
he'd be so glad to see you."
"My train leaves at five," explained
Carrie, "otherwise we'd be glad to."
Helen had started to go, too, and
Carrie turned to her suddenly.
"There's no reason why you
shouldn't stay, Helen."
"No, I ought to be getting home,
too. I'll run over soon _ though,
Louise, so look out for me."
"Her apartment is nicely but yet
extravagantly furnished," said Mrs.
Curtis, as they walked toward the
subway. "Not as extravagantly as
yours," turning to Helen.
"I didn't see a great deal of differ
ence," said Carrie, and for the first
time since she could remember, Helen
felt grateful toward her sister-ln
law.

COPYRIGHT. 1014, BY JOHN FLEMING WILSON
Gallon looked at his enemy with the
simplicity of an old man telling a
proved truth. "They were all my
friends," he said.
"Friends?" said Wilkerson In a sud
denly changed voice, and, thrusting his
contorted face close to Gallon's, "1
don't care about your friends, but you
better care about the enemy you
made."
For one instant the mine owner's
face grew stern and pitiless. But he
heard a step on the outside porch, and
his face softened.
"My God, Harry; I did It for the
girl!"
The evil soul of Wilkerson flared be
hind those cold eyes of his, and for
the first time In his life he told the
truth of his inmost heart, "And 1 must
have my share of 'The Master Key' to
buy a woman."
"Yihat woman?"
Wilkerson leaned forward, and his
Hps hissed hnte as he returned; "Do
yon remember that woman in Valle
Vista five years ago—that woman you
thought your little daughter too good
to speak to? It was you who drove
her out of camp, and now"—he smiled
fatultously—"she's rich and in Now
York, and she hates you!"
Gallon bowed his head.
"What is It you want, Harry?" he
whispered huskily.
The other man pulled a paper out
of his pocket and threw it on the ta
ble. "There's a coiHract for you to
sign."
At this moment the door opened,
and Ruth entered. She stared a mo
ment at the visitor and then looked
anxiously at her father, who said:
"This is an old partner of mine.
Rnthy—Harry Wilkerson."
Ruth shyly looked at the tall strang
er and then shook hands with hiui.
He held her gentle fingers a second
too long. Her face flushed, and she
retired without a backward glance.
Without paying any more attention
to tho old man, who had now subsid
ed into a chair by the table, Wilker
son walked to the window and watch
ed the slim, girlish figure of the young
girl tripping down the hill. Then he
swung on the aid man harshly: "Well,
I need a job. Toil need a new super
intendent, don't you? I guess I'll take
the place."
He stepped quickly to the window
once more. This time he saw Ruth,
with Tom Kane, the old cook, and an
other, in front of the cook bouse.
"Come here, Tom. Who is that talk
ing to that girl of yours?" he said.
Gallon got up heavily from his chair
and walked over to the window, and
he could not repress an expression of
relief. "Oh, that's the mining engi
neer of 'The Master Key,' John Dorr!"
With a quick swing Wilkerson was
back, leaning over the table. He pick
ed up the paper. "Sign here!" he said
insolently.
Gallon made a last faint protest: "I
can't do it!"
Wilkerson picked up a pen, dipped It
and put it in the old man's band.
"Sign!"
Just as the last letter of that signa
ture, which had so long stood for re
spectability, was blotted at the foot of
the paper Ruth entered.
"Your father has just made me su
perintendent of this mine. I'm his old
partner, you know!"
Ruth looked at her father with con
sternation. "Why why I thought
John"—
Thomas Gallon looked up and wiped
his lips. "Yes," he said dully, "I have
made my old—my old—partner superin
tendent of 'The Master Key.' "

"I expect we'll see a good deal of
each other from now on," Wilkerson
said sllkily, and with those slim, white
fingers of his he reached out nud pinch
ed Ruth's cheek.
Ruth did not draw back. She clinch
ed her firm little hand and Wilkerson
received a blow In the mouth that
made him stagger back.
At the moment that he received that
stinging blow he heard a movement to
one side of him, and, with the old In
stinctive fear of Thomas Gallon, he
drew away back with his band 011 tho

eyes of the old man, who had risen
from his seat, and-understood that un
til life left that decrepit frame its mas
tering passion—the passion which he
conld not hope to master—would be
love for the girl whom he had just in
sulted.
He made n daring apology, the apolo
gy of the coward and the liar. "I beg
your pardon, Ruth, but you used to sit
on my knee when you were a little
one."
She merely glanced at him and went
out of the bungalow. She did not see

straighten his bent shoulders to say,
"I killed you once for her sake, and,
d—n you, I'll kill you again, old as I
am!" .
"Come on," Wilkerson said roughly,
"don't get excited. Now take me down
and introduce me to the boys."
Gullon sighed heavily as he obeyed
and took him to where John Dorr was
now starting his day's work.
"John," he said heavily, "this is Har
ry Wilkerson, the new superintendent
of the mine. He used to be my part
ner. It won't interfere with your work
any." He paused for breath. "In fact,
it will take a lot of extra details off
your shoulders."
John looked at Wilkerson. His heart
was filled with bitterness, but he sim
ply said. "All right, Mr. Gallon," and
left.
"Well," said Wilkerson, "I'll take
charge right away." He picked up a
telegraph blank and sat down at the
desk with a new assurance. As if he
had been dismissed by his superior,
Thomas Gallon stepped feebly away.
When he was gone Wilkerson wrote
rapidly:
"Master Key Mine," via Silent Valley,
March 18, 19—.
Jean Darnell, Astor House. New York
City, N. Y.:
I have Just been appointed superintend
ent of this mine; tell George; letter fol
lows. HARRY.
He stared down at bis own signature
with a strange feeling that It was new
—letters instead of figures! He winc
ed as he seemed to hear her say: "I'll
never marry you until you are rich.
Get the money and you shall have Jean
Darnell."
The new superintendent gritted his
teeth, folded up the telegram and call
ed roughly to a boy lounging outside
on the porch:
"Here, take this to the telegraph
station, and be quick about it!" Then
he addressed himself to an examina
tion of the reports and time sheets and
various papers that explained the
working of the mine. His soft, white
fingers caressed receipts that spoke of
gold extracted from the earth.
CHAPTER VI.

A^~ mm j?TEK tie had left his former
partner in the office Thomas
guw Gallon slowly went up to tho
bungalow. There was a glim
mer of satisfaction in his dim eyes as
he thought of the fact that the location
of the real lode was unknown and
that the plans that might reveal It
were far beneath the waters of the
Pacific. He went inside to the desk
and picked out of the locker drawer
the golden key which held bis secret.
He stnred at it and read the num
bers that marked the position of the
lost vessel, and the chest that held the
plans. Whom could he trust with
this? He looked out of the window
and called to John Dorr.
"John!" he quavered. "I've already
told you a little about my finding this
mine and about my old partner."

How to Destroy
the Dandruff Germ
BY A SPECIALIST
That the dandruff germ is respon
sible for nearly all the diseases to
which the scalp is heir, as well as for
baldness and prematura gray hair, is a
well known fact, but when we realize
that it is also indirectly responsible
for many other diseases as well, we ap
preciate the importance of any agent
that will destroy its power. We are
therefore, particularly pleased to give
herewith the prescription which an
eminent scientist states lie has found
after repeated tests, to completely de
stroy the dandruff germ in from one to
three applications. It will also almost
immediately stop falling hair and It
has in numerous cases produced a new
hair-growth after yenrs of partial bald
ness. This prescription can be made up
at home, or any druggist will put it up
for you: fi ounces Bay Rum. 2 ounces
