CHAPTER XI.
N' OW, one doesn't expect to And n
mau In frock cont and silk lint
dodging behind bushes on n
place like llewlngton Acres.
Yet Cherub Derlno hnd corao to asso
ciate that particular pnrt of Long Is
land with all sorts of surprises.
it appeared that this now arrival had
Intended to see without being seen,
but ho hud not been quite quick
enough. Without stopping to consider
Just why ho was doing it Mr. Devlno
promptly Joined in the game by step
ping Into the shrubbery nlso.
The Cherub parted the bushes cau
tiously, lie discovered tho stranger
doing the same thing. Twice the
Cherub stole stealthily around a bush,
sure of having executed a successful
flank movement on tho unknown, only
to find that he had disappeared like a
flash.
Taking off his straw hat, the Cherub
balanced it carefully on tho top of a
rhododendron and began making a
cautious detour. To walk In a stoop
ing position for any distance one
need to be in good condition, and a
thirty-eight waist measure doesn't
help. The Cherub was already red of
face and breathing heavily when ho
suddenly rounded a little thicket of
stunted lira and found himself within
arm's length of a sleuder, sallow faced
person, who was holding a silk hat be
hind him and Intently gazing at the
crown of a straw ouo which showed
above a bush some twenty yards
away.
Even a side view from behind was
enough to reveal the foreigner, for tho
Jet black mustache and the little un
derllp tuft that curled over the chin
were distinctly of alien cut and trim.
"Well, what's the game?"
The stranger was an amazingly cool
sort. He merely turned quickly, tneas-'
ared Mr. Divine with one flash of
keen brown eyes, lifted his brows ex
pressively and shrugged his shoulders.
"Now. perhaps you'll tell me what It
Is all about." asked the Cherub.
The stranger's response to this was
a politely impudent stare.
"I do not quite understand." ho said,
with Just the slightest foreign accent.
"No?" drawled the Cherub mocking
ly. "Then there's two of us In the
dark. But perhaps we can clear mat
ters up. 1 found you skulking In the
bushes. Now. why?"
"Beg pardon, sir, but 1 do not recog
nize your right to question me in that
manner."
"Whe-e ew: What a haughty little
man It Is!" laughed the Cherub. "All.
come down off the stepladder! A mlu
ate or two ago you were dodging
around as guilty as If you'd robbed u
fruit stand. Now. what are you up
to?"
"1 am attending to my own affairs,
(sir."
"Then I'll help you," said tho Cher
ub, "for I'm a good deal interested in
this place and what Is going ou here."
Indeed!" Again the stranger shrug
ged his shoulders. "But 1 don't know
you, sir."
"DIdu't act as If you wanted to.
either. But here's where we get ac
quainted, Just the same. My name's
Devlne Cherub Uevlne."
"Eh? What?" gasped the stranger
staring Incredulously. "Why er a
thousand pardons. Mr. Devlne; allow
me." and bo hastily brought nut a
cardcasp.
"Luigl Salvntore y Vecchl," read the
Cherub, with some hesitancy In pro
nouncing the names. "Vecchl. eh? Ah.
I see! Some relation of the late
count's?"
The stranger smiled indulgently.
"1 am known as Count Vecchl."
Had the Cherub been at all emo
tional ho would have gasped then. As
It was, ho nearly did. but seemed to
recover In time.
"But but you're not the Count Vec
chl who who married Miss Uewlng-
ton?"
The cigarette was waved toward the
rim of his silk hat.
"I have that honor."
It was the Cherub's turn to suire In
credulously. "See here," he said protestlngly,
"either you're a dead count or a live
Bar, and 1 guess tho last description
fits best Come, come: Vou'vc sprung1
that bluff on the wrong person. 1
happen to know that the real Count
Vecchl has been dead for a couplo of
years."
"1 can only quoti tiie words of your
own great humorist, timt the reports
of my death have been greatly exag
gerated.' Here I atn. you see."
The Cherub noted that the leather
cardcaso which tho stranger still held
in his hand bore a silver crest similar
to tho ono ho had noticed on the writ
ing paper of the Countess Vecchl.
"Yes, 1 see," he admitted without
enthusiasm. "All a mistake, was It?
And you've como over to glvo tho
countess a pleasant little surprise, eh?"
"1 hardly think the countess will be
surprised," and the count lifted his
black eyebrows meaningly.
Instantly the situation cleared for
the Cherub. So that was what sbo bad
meant by her mysterious protests.

SEWELL FORD

"Oh, hoi Then she knew all along
that that- Oh. como! Do you think
izi ?wnow that? Why. say. you
CVEN A BIDE VIEW FROM BEHIND WAS
ENOUGH TO ItEVEAIi THE FOKKIGNCK.
blamed busb dodger, do you expect me
to believe she would deliberately tell
me"
"Ah. hut that's Just the point!"
broke in the count "Did she?"
And when ho came to think it over
the Cherub could not recall that the
Countess Vecchl had ever said or im
plied that her husband was dead.
"It strikes me that you don't help
matters much by coming over here
and playing tag around her shrub
bery." suggested the Cherub. "1 might
add that It's apt to be a heap safer for
you not to do so "
"Mercl!" murmured the count, qulto
undisturbed. "But there's no danger.
1 haven't the least Intention of seeing
tho countess, much Ies3 of speaking to
her. 1 had much rather talk to her
attorneys."
"Want to see her lawyers, eh? Well,
she don't keep them out here In the
bushes."
This time the count Indulged In quite
a genuine smile.
My dear Mr. Devlne," he protest
ed, "you don't understand tho situa
tion. Perhaps If you did you could
bo of help to me. Allow me to state.
then, that It was not to revive a long
dead sentiment which brought mo to
America, but a 6ord!d little matter of
money. To be definite, there was a
marriage settlement, a paltry affair In
the shape of a promised yearly In
come. At first it was paid in full and
regularly; then the payments came at
irregular Intervals and were only par
tial. Of late they have ceased. 1 atn
informed by Mr. llewlngton that he
finds It Impossible to continue them.
As though I would believe that! So 1
come here to see for myself it the
rich Mr. llewlngton has suddenly be
come a beggar. And this Is what 1
flud!" Count Vecchl shrugged his
shoulders, spread out bis palms and
Indicated tho broad expanse of llew
lngton Acres.
'Such an estate does not suggest
poverty to me. Now 1 am prepared to
interview the attorneys of my wife,
the countess."
A twluklo of amusement appeared in
tho blue eyes of Mr. Devlne.
"Imagine you can collect, do you7"
ho asked.
"I can make the attempt. It depends.
1 suppose, on what value Mr. llewlng
ton sets upon his word and whether or
not be Is willing to have his pleasant
little flctlou as to a defunct son-in-law
exposed. What do you think?"
Mr. Devlne could appreciate audaci
ty, lie grinned.
"1 thluk you're a slick article," said
he, "and 1 should say you had got 'em.
Looks to me as if Mr. llewlngton
would cither have to chloroform you
or buy you off."
Count Vecchl Indulged in a non
chalant shrug.
"1 ask only what Is Justly due. Ono
cannot live without money."
"There's more or less truth In that.
count, only" And Mr. Devlne pursed
ber cherubic mouth quizzically. "Over
here wo don't make a practice of chok
ing our wives to get It."
"Bah I" The count waved asldo this
reference to his brief domestic career.
"Over here 1 shall make my demands
through raadamo's legal reprcsenta
tires."
"You're Improving. Going to call on
them today?"
"As soon as I can get a message t
tho countesB and learn the names of
her attorneys."
"Oh. I see! Now, wait Let me
think thnt over n minute." Tho Cher
ub rubbed bis pink chin thoughtfully,
"You say you don't Insist upon seeing
the countess personally; all you want
Is the iiddress of ho" tnwvcrs."
Ttio count uonueu.
"Then I'll tell you what we might
do." suggested Mr. Uevlne. "Let's go
up nnd ask Tlmmlns to find out. We
can get to his oilier without belnu
seen. What do you say?"
Tho couut was quite willing, lie of
fcred Mr. Devlne a cigarette In litf
most nffablc manner, and when the
Cherub has rescued his straw hat
they started off through the maze of
blucstone walks for the stables.
On reaching the office he left the
couut outside and went In alone to
consult Tlmmlns.
"Ever see a plcturo of Count Vec
chl?" ho asked Tlmmlns.
Yes, Tlmmlns hnd, but not for n
couple of years.
"Take a squint through tho window
nt the chnp outside," said Mr. Devlne.
"Did tho plcturo look nnythlng like
him?"
Tlmmlns peered through the glass.
"Yes, very like him, sir," he went on.
"Then that's him," declnrcd the
Cherub.
"Not the one that they said was"
"Yes, but ho says ho isn't. Claims
he never died at all. Now, what do
you guess he's hero for?"
"Judging by what 1'vo heard, sir, 1
should say ho might be after money."
"Tlmmlns, you're a mind reader
That's Just wlmt ho is after."
"Why, the sneaking, unmannerly vil
lain!" exploded Tlimnins. "He ought
to bo put In Jail, sir."
"Well, something ought to bo done
with him. What's that little stone
coop without nny windows down there
by the swan lake?"
"That's the Icehouse, sir."
"Full up, is it?"
'Oh, no, sir; not now, sir. It's very
near empty, I think."
"Room for a cot bed nnd a chair or
so, is there?"
Timmius grinned expressively.
"Plenty of room, sir."
"How about nlr, Tlmmlns?"
"Excellent ventilation, sir. nas to
be, you know."
'Good! Now, you slip out the back
way nnd go down there, will you? Go
Inside nnd shut tho door. When you
hear me knock you'll know I've come
with a caller. Get the Idea, eh?"
"Do 1, sir! Oh. my eye! Oh, my
eve!" And. with ono hand over his
mouth, Tlmmlns disappeared.
Tho Icehouse at Hewlngton Acres
was n most substnntlal building. In
the front were two doors one at the
top, reached by a permanent ladder;
the other on a level with tho ground.
This latter was a double door, with
an air space between. The outside
half was of thick oak and swung on
heavy strap hinges. In the upper
panel was n diamond shaped design of
auger boles. Standing outside and
looking up nt these perforations was
Cherub Devlne. He was not studying
the design. He was talking to some
unseen person behind the thick door,
conversing easily and pleasantly in
spite of tho handicap. True, he was
'on the free sido of the door. That
makes a difference, of course.
On the whole, Cherub Devlne felt a
grim satisfaction In knoSvlng that the
count wns safe uudcr lock and key In
stead of dodging around the grounds,
where ho might come across tho count
ess at nny moment. Even if there
was no danger of n tender reunion It
was best to have the count shut up.
for ho was bout on making trouble
At that very moment he was so de
claring to the full extent of his lung
power. Through the auger holes he
was shouting that Mr. Devlne. the
countess, Mr. newlngtou nnd Tlm
mlns should all pay dearly for this
high handed outrage.
"You're a cursed Yankee pig!" howl
ed the Imprisoned count.
"Sorry you're so stirred up over It."
soothingly observed tho Cherub.
'Kidnaper!" shrieked the count.
"Guilty." responded tho Cherub.
"First offense, though. Now for heav
en's sake calm down."
"It's beastly In here! My shoes are
getting full of something!"
"Nothing but sawdust." answered
the Cherub. "I'll have Tlmmlns
spread a rug or something over It."
"I'll make It hot for you when 1 get
out!"
Sure! And for the llewingtons.
too, I expect?"
"You'll both have to pay for this as
soon as I'm free."
"There! You see!" exclaimed the
Cherub cheerfully. "You'd stir up n
bnd muss, of course. We could put
you In Jail for attempted blackmail.
but that would bring out thnt the
countess wasn't a widow, and all that
old gossip would be dug up again nnd
printed In all tho papers, and I'd be
held up mi a kidnaper. No, my dear
count, it wouldn't do at nil."
The Cherub had wished him a pleas
ant evening aud a good night's rest
and was Just turning to go to tho sta
bles to see Tlmmlns when ho found
himself facing Mr. Hewlngton. As
tonishment was stamped on every line
of tho old gentleman's aristocrat le
countenance.
"Why why, Mr. Devlne! You seem
to be holding a conversation with some
person in there." And he indicated
the closed door pf the Icehouse.
"Guess I was," admitted tho Cherub.
"How singular! And cr might I
er ask"
"Suppose you don't," put In tho Cher
ub. "It would simplify matters a lot
If you didn't."
"1 have been accustomed, Mr. Do'
vino, to bo told of all thnt went on
about this estate, even to the smallest
detail. 1 should like to know, sir. to
whom you were talking Just now."
"All right," said the Cherub, with a
gesturo of resignation. "Thero'B the
eentleman's card."
As Mr. Hewlngton replaced his
glasses and read tho full name of
Count Vecchl an expression of com'
ploto consternation, not to say panic.
spread over his features.
"impossiDici" lie wtnspcred nonrsciy.
"Just what I thought when ho
sprung It on me," commented tho Cher
ub. "I told him he wns n dead one.
llo snys ho Isn't."
"Then the count Isn't dead, eh?"
Cherub Devlne watched with mild
nmusomeut the confusion of mind Into
which Mr. llewlngton was Immediate
ly plunged.
"My dear Mr. Devlne," said he nt
Inst, taking the Cherub by the nrm
nnd leading him nwny from tho Ice
house, "I er ah that Is 1 hardly
know how to to"
"Yes; I undcrstnnd. Why not let It
come straight out, though?'
"Well, 1 must begin by making tho
regretful admission that we discovered
soon after my daughter's marriage
Indeed, on the very dny of tho cere
mony thnt ho was n person of dlsso
luto habits."
"Yes. 1 heard all that the flrst dny 1

"Then, sir, there wns an Immediate

supply him with funds, however, but
ufter wo left Italy I gradually ceased
to do so. About two years ago tho
count became so dissipated thnt It
was necessary to confine him in a san
itarium. He disappeared from his old
haunts. This gave rise to the rumor
that he was dead. It was so reported
here. Naturally the countess assumed
appropriate mourning gnrb. A few
weeks Inter we learned tho falseness
of the rumor. The count was still In
the sanitarium and much benefited by
his stay there. But this fact was not
made public."
"1 see." said tho Cherub. "Ho says
he's come to collect that Income you
promised him."
'The impudent scoundrel!" exclaim
ed Mr. Hewlngton. lifting his clinched
fists.
"That's the talk! 1 wouldn't give up
to him if I were you. But he says If
he Isn't paid he'll bring suit and ad
vertise the fact that he's still alive."
"Tho villain!" gasped Mr. Hewlng
ton. "I had him sized up that way from
the start. That's why I chucked him
in on tho ice."
"On the the Ice, Mr. Devlne?"
"Whv, sure! I thought he'd cool off
quicker in there than anywhere else."
"Ah, I had forgotten! That Is the Ice
house, of course. And ho threatens to
make public his Identity? This is ter
rible. Air. Devlne. I have told every
one thnt ho wns Why, Just think!
It will be known that I have stooped
to to deception."
The trembling Jaw of De Courcey
Hewlngton grew firm.
"Devlne," said he. "this must not
be. That man must not be nllowed at
large."
"Oh, 111 attend to that, all right.
You Just stay mum and I'll keep him
on the Ice. But not a -word to the
countess."
"Not a word," promised Mr. Hewlng
ton. "And In a month or so I will
build another icehouse for next sum
mer's use."
"For next summer!" And the Cher
ub's gaze widened as tho full slgnlfl
ennce of this remark became clear to
him. "Then you're planning to give
tlie count a good, long term, eh? Well,
say, there's nothing slow about you,
Is there? Whew! Guess I'll have to
think it over."

Night Blindness.
Inability to nee by day is mutched by
the commoner night blindness which
most of us have known in friend or
relative. Tills defect, which Includes
an Inability to see even by artificial
light, is congenital with some people
and never overcome. It Is often he
reditary. It may also be caused, how-
over, by long exposure to an overbright
light, coupled with fatigue. A Btrango
story Is told concerning a ship's crow
two centuries ago which were over
come by night blindness so extreme
that their captain was obliged to force
a fight with a Spanish privateer dur
ing tho day, knowing that by night his
men would bo helpless, in order to
obviate this difficulty for future occa
sions ho ordered each sailor to keep
ono eye bound during the daytime,
discovering, to his gratification, that
this eyo, having rested, was then free
of tho defect. The sailors were very
amusing In their efforts to retain tho
bandage well over the eyo that must
bo ready for night duty, aud so a
method of modifying this troublo was
discovered London Strand Magazine.

The Attorney In England,
Tho use of the word attorney de
notes a belated mind. Since Nov. 1,
1875, attorneys have sensed to exist,
their tltlo merged by law Into that of
solicitor of the supremo court of Judi
cature, says a writer In tho London
Mall. The name had long been used
ns n term of abuse. Johnson observed
of an acquaintance that "ho did not
enro to speak III of any man behind
his bnck, but ho believed the gentle
mnn wns mi attorney."
Archbishop Trench, In 18."!), noted
thnt the word attorney was going out
of fnvor and thnt the lower branch or
tho legal profession preferred to be
called solicitors. So when the Judi
cature net of 187.1 was before parlia
ment a clniice wns Inserted abolishing
the obnoxious title. Hut with our de
lightful conservatism we still honor
the "attorney general."
Hon to Strengthen Facial Muscles.
When one Is very tired nnd the fa
cial muscles seem to be twisted Into n
tight knot, try mopping them with a
soft epouge or cloth wet with very
cold wafer. Besides resting the mus
cles of the face, tho cold water nets
as a tonic. Here Is a tip for the wo
man who feels herself a "sight" from
fatigue. Not only will she feel rested
after her cold mopping, but tin' tiny
wrinkles nnd tired lines will disappear
nnd she will look years younger. Quite
ns strengthening as tho cold wafer Is
tho Ice rubbing. Put a small lump In
a clean linen cloth and pnss It ncross
the face In opposite directions to the
wrinkles or fatigue lines.
