How Helen lived through that even
ing she hardly ever knew. All through
she was Impelled to ask War
ren who had written the letter, but
something: seemed to restrain the im
pulse. and she kept quiet and tried to
act as naturally as possible. Warren
was unusually quiet, too. and said
very little even when the dessert was
brought in and Helen looked up and
asked if it were as good as usual.
"I guess so." he had said. In a pre
occupied manner that made Helen in
wardly writhe all over, and then had
gone on eating deliberately as though
he had all the time in the world.
"Why the hurry*" lie asked, looking
uu as the waiter removed Helen's des
sert plate.
"I don't know, dear," said Helei
guiltily. "I feel nervous this evening,
that's all." Her accustomed word of
endearment fell from her lips natu
rally. and she checked herself and
thought that if Warren wen' contem
plating anythinr underhanded, how
utterly unworthy he was of her faith
and iove. How unworthy any man
was. even the best of them, she
thought, for she had prided herself on
Warren's love for her. and here it was
crumbling at her feet, no better than
any other man's, professed faith.
Warren had suggested going to the
theater, but Sho had refused on the
plea of a headabhe, so they had gone
home. She did not follow Warren
directly into the livingroom, but
went into her own room first to re
move her hat and coat. That would
give Warren the opportunity he want
ed. she thought to herself —the op
portunity to open the letter alone.
When she had joined him some ten
minutes afterward, he was sitting in
his accustomed chair smoking a cigar
and cutting the pages of a new book
with her ivory paper cutter.
The next morning Helen dragged
herself around heavy-eyed and tired
from the effects of a sleepless night.
She went into the bathroom for a
headache powder which she was In
the act of preparing when the tele
phone rang so suddenly that she
dropped the powder, and it flew out
of her hand and scattered over the
floor. Nora called her just then, and
she hurried to the telephone to be
greeted by Warren's brusque hello.
Warren Frightens Helen With a Tele
phone Message
"llello." she said, "is anything the
matter?"
"I'm coming up to the house in
about half an hour. Do you think
■ you could get ready for a trip on
short notice if I decided to take you
with me?"
Helen almost dropped the receiver.
"A trfp. why yes. Warren, what
kind of a trip? Where?"
"I'll tell you all about it as soon
as I get up to the house. If you think
you can get ready to leave by to-mor
row afternoon, I'll take you."
"And Winifred?"
"Of course. I suppose so, unless you
coukl leave her with Boh and Ixnilsc."
"What do you think?"
"I don't know. Start to get your
things together, and we'll talk it over
as soon as I can get up. Tell Nora to
have lunch at twelve and I'll eat up
there: It will save time."
There was a click of the receiver.

and Helen had an excit d shiver of
j delight. A trip just at this time of the
year was something she had not ex
pected. She wondered how Warren
could be so calm about it, and then
she sprang up. all her heaviness
gone in the excitement of the moment.
"Nora, have luncheon ready prompt
ly at twelve. Mr. Curtis is coming
home, and Nora we are going away
for a trip. I don't know for how
long, but Mr. Curtis is coming right
' home and he will tell us all about it."
! The worry about the letter was
completely forgotten as Helen began
'to open bureaus. A blue and green
j corded silk suit that she had bought
i a few days ago unknown to Warren
j had come home and would be just the
thing to travel in. She had her aft-
I ernoon dresses and two thin gowns
• from last summer that would come in
j handy. Winifred would have to have
'some things, but no doubt she would
! have time to shop that afternoon for
! a few necessaries and buy the rest
as she had the chance.
By the time Warren's key was
rattling in the latch she had all her
clothes out on the bed and her trunk
in readiness for quick packing. Wint
| fred had been sent out to the dining-
Iroom and now stood at the door anx
iously peering in at Helen's opera
tions. Warren caught her up as he
I came In.
' "Hello, chicken! what do you think
about it. anyway?" And then as he
'saw Helen's room: "Well. this is
i quick preparation. I tell you."
"Warren, do tell me all about it,
; and do you think I will have time
Ito shop this afternoon?"
Warren looked doubtful. "I'll give
i you an hour and a half or two hours
Jat the most. Can you get what you
I want in that? If so, I'll let you get
; what I need, too, and I won't have to
l bother."
"That w"l be plenty of time —I'll
ido everything. But now tell me about
[it, business of course."
j "Yes. business down to Panama."
I Helen gasped incredulously. "Pan
iama?" she suid, as though hardly be
jlieving what she had heard: and then,
I "Warren, then there won't be any
trouble at all about taking Winifred?"
"That's what I thought," said War
ren, now in high good humor. "Here's
our stateroom, and it's a good one, too.
! There'll be a couch in the room, and
we ean have a bed made on that."
Helen hugged Winifred rapturously
| "How long are we going to be away
!dear?"
I "Probably three weeks. I don't
j know just how long we'll be in Pan
jama; won't know till we get down
| there. Better take some thin clothes."
[ "I'm going to. Warren. I'll need a
' linen suit and a steamer coat: I think
j I have everything else." as she bent
j over the trunk and folded up her
i clothes quickly. "I'll have to get a
I few things for Winifred."
"Yes. and you'll get those things for
me. too. There's lots of time, if you
don't stay in there all day and let the
lunch get cold. You can finish up aft
erward when I am back at the office.
That's the trouble with you women,
you get so excited over the least little
i thing."

CHAPTER 11.
t _ IN the dock adjneent to the one
I I from which the Hilarity's mo-
I tor tender haii departed there
11 paced, almost perceptibly, a
night watchman, who consisted of an
overcoat, a cap and two glints of eye.
To him there came, as the docks inten
sified their loneliness, a brisk little
chauffeur with a thin mustache and a
woman with high check bones.
"The Hilarity!" stated, the little
chauffeur, with an accusing tone, and
with a sweeping gesture he pointed to
that adjacent dock where stood a big
hamper with the word "Hilarity" glar
ing white on its side. "She is gone!"
Then Henri stepped back.
"Yep," rumbled a frosty voice.
"But her tender." objected Henri,
"also is gone. Listen, my friend," in
sisted Henri, stopping in front of the
overcoat and cap, but. moving aside as
it came irresistibly on. "The facta
are like these: Mademoiselle has gone
on board the Hilarity. Behold, here is
the maid of the charming mademoi
selle. She was also to have gone on
board the Hilarity. How, then, shall
she go?"
"Dunno."
The maid of the charming mademoi
selle now stepped forward.
"Can you drive a motorboatt" she
asked.
"Voila!" And Henri snapped the fin
gers of both hands, snapped them three
times. "Voila, mademoiselle, Marie! If
it goes I can drive it."
"Can't we hire this boat?" and the
resourceful Marie poiuted to a trim
little craft.
"Nope."
"But, comrade." And Henri jerked
bis cap on the back of his head as he
wheeled at right angles.
"It is important. Look. Here Is
money. I take the swift little boat. I
swish out of the slip. I swish down
the river. I swish across the bay.
Like lightning I swish, and I overtake
the yacht Hilarity. I deliver the
charming maid"—a little bow here—
"and a kiss from the finger tips to the
charming mademoiselle, and lminedi
ately I swish bacV-. Nothing is lost!
All is safe!"
"Get off the dock," came the answer.
"But, monsieur."
"Hike."
"I, Heuri, detest you," was the angry
response. And lie followed Marie off
the dock.
Henri had another Idea. He drove
to a nearby saloon and procured a
bottle of whisky, which he offered to
the man on the dock.
"Thanks." The voice was one degree
less frosty. The neck of the bottle
disappeared Into the slit of the over
coat collar, and the gleaming bottle
turned heavenward.
"Voila." Henri himself took a sip
and stuffed the bottle In his pocket.
"I shall go away, my friend, but I shall

away, and the thick figure slinking ont
of the shadows h<Jpped on behind.
In the ivory tapestried stateroom, as
the Hilarity steamed slowly across the
hay, June Warner suddenly rose aud
rang for the stewardess. That puck
ered person came with alacrity, but be
fore she went to June she stopped In
the door of the crimson and gold salon
and, catching the eye of Orln Cunning
ham. bobbed her head and smiled her
Ingratiating smile and jerked her
thumb over hor shoulder toward June's
room: then she turned her pallid eyes
toward Gilbert Blye for a fleeting mo
ment and hurried away.
"Did you ring, dearie V she whined
as June opened the door.
"Yes." June studied the woman a
moment speculatively. She could not
confide In this creature. "You may
bring me some water, please."
"Yes. dearie." The stewardess whirl
ed and hurried to the door of the crim
son end gold salon, where Tommy
Thomas sat between Cunningham and
Edwards, with n hand on a shoulder
of each. The stewardess, with a side
long glance at the quiet Blye In the
rorner, hurried over to the group on
the bench.
"She wants some water." she whis
pered, bending over and grinning her
■gly grin.
"Oh, yes." Again the grin. "Young
ladies always trust me. Say, I think
she wants to escape."
Blye. with ft frown on his dark,
handsome face, walked across and
spoke to Cunningham. Orin nodded
and. his eyes twinkling, went to the
portable buffet, where he selected a
long stemmed, gracefully shaped, gold
lncrusted goblet of Venetian glass. He
filled It with ice and set It to one side.
Then, while the others watched him,
Tommy Thomas, with a half sneer, and
Mrs. Yillurd, with shocked concern, he
took from a locked case a tiny stone
bottle. Now he emptied the ice from
the beautiful goblet and poured into it
a few blood red drops. Mrs. Yillard
half rose aud looked toward Gilbert
Blye; then, with a catch in her breath,
she sat down and was silent.
Blye went to the door as the stew
ardess came up the gangway and call
ed her in with a jerk of his head. On
the lips of Kdwards there had come a
firm set. and his heavy lidded eyps had
uarrowed. Without a word Cunning
ham handed the glass to the steward
ess. but between the two there passed
a look which was full of meaning.
Blye, with his glowing eyes on the
glass, smiled suavely.
"I brought you the water, dearie,"
said the stewardess, entering June's
stateroom.
"Oh!"' An exclamation of delight
from June as her eyes widened with
the beauty of the delicate Venetian
goblet.
"That's something else I made for
you In the pautry, dearie," explained
the stewardess, in her coaxing whine,
aud bobbed -»er neck. "It's a flue stim
ulant and soothing to the nerves."
June took the fragile glass in her
hand. Its sheer beauty had won her.
She Inbaled daintily. The fragrance
was most appealing. She looked at It
again and smiled. She did feel faint
and weak. She lifted the glass to her
lips, and the tip of her tongue caught
the delicious flavor. Suddenly, as she
tilted the glass to drink, she caught
the pallid eyes of the stewardess fixed
eagerly upon her. The woman's
mouth was half open, and she was
breathing hard.
With a flash of intuition June Jerked
her lips from the gla9s and threw it,
crashing and splintering, into the fire
place.
"Why, dearie"' exclaimed the stew
ardess, and In great agitation she
pushed a button at the side of the
mantel.
June's eyelashes lowered for an In
stant; and her lips set; then quietly
she went Into the little blue boudoir
and sat thoughtfully upon the daintily
upholstered settee.
The steward came pompously In.
"Well, you're done it again, you!" he
growled as he surveyed' the splintered
fragments of the delicate Venetian
glass.
"No, Perry," whined the woman and
glared toward the boudoir door with
her pallid eyes. She jerked her thumb
In that direction, and then she winked.
"That's you," snarled Wilkins. "You
always say it's a guest."
"How much?" whispered the woman
in a sibilant hiss, which carried as It
was Intended to do.
"Them glasses Is sl2 npiece, and it'll
be taken from your wages. That
comes out of my pocket!"
June bit her lips. Twelvo dollars!
It was a lot of money to a girl who
bad found dollars coming slowly and
Independence hard to win, but she
picked up her purse. After all, she had
no proof that the woman meant any
thing but kindliness.
"Is this breakage charged against
you?" asked June.
"Why, yes, dearie." A. sniffle went
with the whine.
"How much will it cast yon?"
"Twelve dollars!" Sniffle. "But ifs
all a part of our job, so never mind,
dearie,"
"I do not wish yon to lose the
money," and quite thoughtfully June
counted sl2 from her slender store.
She added another for the customary
tip and gave one to the man. and they
thanked her roost obsequiously. As
June returned to the boudoir their sup
pressed voices broke out again.
"No," protested the woman in that
whining hiss; "that's my money—the
dollar's mine, anyhow."
"Nothing yours except what I give
you," stated Percy Wilkins gruffly.
"That's thj law, and you know it.
