(Continued) Honest, Mr. Doe, if you turn us up to Mike " Doe held up his hand, and Jerry the-Limp, not quite knowing why, stopped. "This is John Doe, Mr. Dowd," he said into the 'phone. "If you will remember when I was in your place not long ago, a man who pretended to- be a cripple claimed acquaintance with me, under the name of Bow- Wow." The four afternoon callers, huddled near the doorway in two groups, of three callers and one caller, heard a harsh voice crackling and snapping in the 'phone. "Yes, they're here," returned Doe, with a smile. "I merely called you up, Mr. Dowd, to ask your advice as to what to do with them." The answer of Mike Dowd was so short, so clean-cut, and so vigorous, that every person in the room could hear it. • "Kill "em!" A lot more came over the wire, not all the words were distinguishable and not all were printable, but enough coijld be gleaned, even by the caller nearest the door, whose red whiskers seemed to be curling tighter, to know that Mike Dowd promised to get Mr. Doe out of any consequences of his act if he killed them, or, if he didn't want to mess his hands With them, merely to send them down to the Sink, and Mike would do the job. "Thank you," returned Mr. Doe. and hung up the receiver; then he faced his callers. "Get out." The tone was not vociferous, it was not extraordinarily vigorous even, but there was such calm and firm decision about it that the callers got out; and, as they closed the door behind them, John Doe sunk limply on his desk, sprawled there, crushed, humiliated, shamed! "You'io a fine fathead!" growled Piggy Marshall, as they jostled out through the reception-room. He was already taking off his collar, and tear ing it in the process. "Didn't I tell you you didn't know the gent?" demanded Red Whitey, who was well in the lead. The snub-nosed office boy was op ening the outer door for them. "For * handful of butts I'd croak you!" husked Tank Tonkey vindic tively. as they clustered in front of the elevator. "You had a line frame-up, didn't you? Oh, yes! We'd come up here say, do you know what this outfit cost me?" and he shook the collar and the violet blue tie at Jerry the-Limp. "Nineteen cents! Now you buy it!" "Do you suppose I want to play circus?" snarled Jerry-the-Limp, look ing at the white circle with aversion. "Ain't you sport enough to invest that much in a big gamble like this? Why, all we had to do——" "Yes, we did:" Tank Tonkey again. I He was too heavy to give himself 1 much to wrath, but when he did, it I was deadly. "All we had to do was i to smoke your hop, and think this mil lionaire sport was Bow-Wow, and we could milk him for the rest of our lives! Oh, yes, we did!" Tank Ton keys' rage was rising in proportion to his weight. "I'll lean on you, you shrimp!" "Shut your yawps, you boneheads!" shrilly yelled Jerry-the-Limp. wheel ing on his followers with fierce com mand, but he saw in their cold eyes that His moral force was shattered and his leadership gone; and he had instant proof of it when Red Whitey, without a word of warning, suddenly pranced up and kicked him on the shin. "Say!" growled Piggy Marshall; "don't any of these elevators stop on this floor!" A messenger boy stepped up to the row of elevators and pressed a but ton, and the next car flashed its red light. It was fairly crowded, and, as they thronged in, Jerry-the-Limp found himself forced violently into the periphery of Tank Tonkey. "Get out of me!" wheezed Tank, his voice made shrill by compression. "Step away or I'll bat you!" "Paste him one for me, Tank!" re quested Piggy Marshall. "I will, so help me, the minute I get room to swing an arm!" and in Tank's reddened eyes there came a savage gleam. "Push back, I tell you!" "Get off my foot!" Piggy Marshall. He, too, was losing his temper. At that moment the elevator stop ped at the main floor, and Jerrv-the- I.imp, feeling that the height of his unpopularity had arrived, popped out of the door, with a real limp. He might have gotten away clear, but the elevator starter, seeing him run, Slabbed him by the coat. That was no way to detain Jerry-the-Limp, for his arms were out of the sleeves in an .nstant, and, leaving the coat in the starter's hands, he darted through the lobby, in his blue shirt sleeves, with his celluloid dickey sticking straight out in front of him and his black bow ilo slipped around under this ear. That second of delay, however, had been disastrous, for it enabled Red Whitey to catch him round the neck, at the curb, and, in two seconds more, Tank Tonkey and Piggy Marshall were up on him! It took two policemen to drag 1 Jerry the-Limp from under his cohorts; and the last that admiring Broadway saw of General Jerry and his army, they were whizzing away in a patrol wag on, still snarling.

"Step in, and I'll look around," in- I vtted Mrs. Stuart, very glad indeed that he had come, for smiling; was rather rare, these days, in the Stuart apartments. "Thank you." Tommy hung his hat on the hall tree in the vestibule, and lounged into the pink and gray parlor, and laid his portfolio on the table, picked him a chair in the bay window, and reached for his cigaret case. "A certain beautiful young lady is not at home, I suppose. Do you mind if I smoke? Foggy weather I we're having." j "Tavy is at her music lesson, and | you know you may smoke, and I ! think we shall have some rain, and i won't you sit down." It was good to 1 hear her laugh, although the mirth j did not extend as far as her patient j eyes. 1 Tommy drew Mrs. Stuart's chair i into a more pleasant view for her, and I waited until she had seated herself, ! and reached for his portfolio. ; "I've been doing some serious por j trait work," he observed. "How is ! this one?" Mrs. Stuart gave a little gasp of j delight. ; "Tavy!" she cried. Tavy it was, ( glossy black hair, oval cheeks, slend er, graceful neck, and, most mar ; velous of all, the dark gray eyes had within them a hint of their sus ! ceptibility to change through violet I to blue! It was a happy Tavy who | smiled up at Mrs. Stuart from the i clean white page, but Tommy, with I that fidelity which sees beneath, had {caught the trace of inborn wistful • ness in the eyes. | "Pretty tine, from memory and | sketches," bragged Tommy, cocking j his head on one side to admire his I own work. "The Hudson River, Mrs. ; Stuart, flows down through the State of New York in an almost directly north and south line for the more important part of its course.

"From what you say, I judge that you know what hap pened here, and if you know, you already understand why Billy can never be the same to lis." "Probably not." He smiled at her with engaging frankness. "Billy didn't send me, but I know he wouldn't expect to bo quite the same to you He wouldn't ask a full restoration but just a crumb, just the privilege of coming up here once in a while and sitting around."

He saw, as she glanced down again "at the ingratiating picture of Billy, that there was no wavering in her, and he knew better than to com pel a refusal which would be final. Ho went abruptly to the window. "What a queer government boat. Did you ever see one like it, Mrs. Stuart?" He pointed it out, a long, low craft with a myriad of angling derricks, which, at. that distance, looked like toothpicks. He relieved her of the sketch, as she stood at the window. "Will you and Tavy go to the theater with me some night this week?" Again she laughed at him. Tommy Tinkle was an irresistible cure for] the blues, and her eyes softened as he stood looking down at her. She saw through Tommy. She saw mourn fulness underneath his mockery. It was a quality she could easily dis tinguish because she was so thor oughly acquainted with it. "You'll have to ask Tavy about that." Suddenly her eyes narrowed. "You're not arranging for us to meet any one?" The shocked look on his face was enough answer. "Pardon me, Tommy." "I'm not damaged in the slightest," he lightly assured her. "How soon will the certain beautiful young lady be home?" "She should be here now," and Mrs. Stuart glanced at the clock. "Then I'll wait," and Tommy stroll ed across to the piano.
