It seemed to Dun combe tbnt there was a shade of cool ness In his visitor's manner as he took his leave. He drew Sneneer a lift! nn one side. "I want you to promise to come and see me in any case tomorrow morn ing," he said, "There is ' something which I should prefer saying to yon In my own bouse to saying here." Spencer nodded. "Very well," be said, "I wjllxiome. I can promise that much at least." Lord Hunton departed. I'elham went off to bed. Spencer and bis host wero left alone in the library. "Billiards or a whisky and soda. Iu (he smoke room?" the latter asked. "I know that you are not a lute bird." "Neither, thanks. Just a word witb you here," Spencer ooswered. Duncombe paused on his way to th? door. Spencer was standing la a re flective attitude, with bis bands be hind his back, gently balancing him self upon bis toes. "I am very much disposed," be saJ-I. "to accept Lord' Kunton's offer. Hava you any objection?" "Of course I bavo," Duncombe an swered. "You are working for me." "Was working for you," Spencer cor rected gently. "That Is all over, isn itr "What do you mean?" Duncombe ex claimed. Spencer stood squarely upon bis fee He looked a little tired. "My engagement from you was t And Miss rbyllis Poynton," ha sold softly. "You and I are perfectly well aware that the young lady in question Iswell, a few yards behind that cur tain," be said, motioning with bis bead toward It. "Sly task is accomplished, and I consider myself a free man. Duncombe was silent for a moment, He walked restlessly to the window and back again. How did you find out that she was here?" he asked. Spencer looked a little disgusted. "My dear fellow," ba said, "any ona with the brains of a mouse must have discovered that. Why, Lord Ronton, without any of the Intimations which J have received, Is a little suspicious, That Is merely a matter of A, B, O. There were difficulties, I admit, and 1 am sorry to say that I have never solv ed them. I cannot tell you at this mo ment how It comes about that a young lady, brought up In the country here, and, from all I can learn, an ordinary, unambitious, virtuous sort of young person, should disappear from England In search of a missing brotbeer and re turn In a few months the companion of one of the most dangerous and bril liant members of the French socret service. This sort of thing la clean be yond me, I must admit. I will be frank witb you, Duncombe. I have met witn difficulties In this case which I have never met-wlth before peculiar dlffl. cultles." "Go on!'' Duncombe exclaimed eag erly. "I nava many sources of information In Paris," Spencer continued siowiy, "I have acquaintances among waiters, cabmen, cafe proprietors, detectives and many snch people. bave always found them most useful. I went among them making careful Inquiries about Fhyllls Poynton and her brother, They were like men struck dumb. Their mouths were closed like rat trans. The mention of either the boy or the girl teemed to change them as though like magic from pleasant talks Ltive- men and women, very eager to make the Dest or ineir niua uu ui in formation. Into surly idiots. Incapable of understanding or answering the lightest question. It was the moat axtraordlnar experience I have ever come across." ' Duncombe was breathlessly Inter- aated. . "What do von father from It?" be akMl eaeerlr. "I -can only surmise." Spencer said slowly "I can only eurmise the exist Mnrtk nf mm oower. some force or combination -of forces, behind all this, the nature of which I am sntlrtly ig norant I am bound to admit that there la a certain amount o fasdaa tioo to me in the contemplation of any neb thing.

Spencer smiled and rubbed his bauds softly together. "Really," he murmured, "this is most Interesting. I am with you, Duncomba -with, you altogether. There Is only one more question." "Well 7" "You did not know rbyllis Poynton. You took up this search for ber out of your friendship for relliam. You aro a rich man, 3'oung, strong, with every Capacity for enjoyment. What Induces you to risk your life In on adventure of this sort? You see, I don't mince words." Then Duncombe became grave. His face fell Into firm, hard line?, yet as he spoke there wf.s something boyish about hi? expression. "It Is a fair question," he answered. "You wo.?'t understand mo. I don't understand myself. I've a brilliant iga!axy"of fools behind me. They've made the pages of history Interesting.

Che UA man threw ud her window and wore no rings, urn! her lingers Dad the rosy plnkness of health. It sho had seemed graceful to him before in the drawing room of Runton House and surrounded by some of the most beau tiful women In the country, she seem' ed more than ever so now seated in the somewhat worn chair of his little itudio. The color, too, seemed to have come bock to her checks She seemed to have regained in some measure her glrlishness. Her eyes were over ready to lough Into his. She chatted away as though the world, after ail, contained nothing more serious for her than for any other girl. Duncombe hated to strike anqtber note; yot Uo know that sooner or later it must be done. "You are quite sure that you will not have anything else?" he asked, "Absolutely, thanks! I have never enjoyed myself so much in my life.;' He glanced at his watch. It was half past 11. "I am afraid," he said, "that I am going to be a nuisance to you; but one's friends often are that I want to-be your friend. I want to prove myself such. I am not an inquisitive person by any means, but fate has de clared that I should bo your Inquisitor, There are some questions which I am bound to ask you." Her face grew suddenly grave, "There Is so little," sbe murmured, "which I can tell you." "We shall see," he answered. "In the first place, Lord Runton has been here. He is one of my oldest friends hud a very good fellow. He came to tell nis that De Rothe had been robbed In his bouse of some valuable papers. He came partly to usk my advlco. All the time I was sitting opposite to bin) with those papers In my pocket." Sho looked nt him strangely. "Perhaps," sho said quietly, "you gave them up Jo b.lm." "I did not," ho answered. "You know very well that I did not," "It was your duty," she said In a low tone. "Perhaps so. On the other hand," he continued, "you trusted me. The pa pers are safe." . "Poos bo know that you. have them?" she asked, "Ho knows nothing." She looked at hint steadfastly not with any appearance of doubting bin word, and yet as though she were re volving something In her mind con cerning him. "I ant thinking," she sa)d,"bow much better It would nave been for both of us If we bad never mot." "The fntes thought otherwise," he answered. "I searched Paris for yos only to find you at my gates. The fates meantyou to be my friend. We must be careful not to disappoint tbera." She shook ber head a little wistfully. t'Yoq hnvo been very goqd tq me," he said, "but you don't understand" "Precisely!" he Interrupted. "I don't understand. I want to. To begin with, what In this world Induced you to throw In your lot even for an hour with the man wbo called himself Fielding? "I can answer no question concern. lng myself," sbe said sadly, He smiled. "Come," be said, "It Isn't so serious as all that Is It? Sooner or later your friends are sure to find you, and they Will not be content witb such a state ment as that You wero summoned one day to Paris by or on behalf of your brother, wbo had unaccountably disappeared there. You Immediately appear to have followed suit You bad no friends In Paris. Neither, I think, bad be, I believe I am correct in say ing tbnt you had neither of yoa ever been there before. If your brother has fullen Into bad hands, and if those same people aro trying to work upon your fear by leading you into tbl sort of tiling well, I have friends who are powerful enough to bring yoa safely out of any den of thieve In the world. Yoa are In an Impossible situation, my dear young lady. Nature never meant you for an adventuress. There I no necessity for you to become one. Why do-FoaJook at me like that?" There wa terror In ber face. He bad hoped to reassure ber, to give ber courage. On tho contrary, every word be spoke only seemed to increase ber distress. "Ob, I am afraid!" be murmured. "I wish I had taken my chance. I ought not to have burdened you for a mo ment with my affair. I have given yoa the right to ask me questions which I cannot answer." He wa perplexed. ."If yoa have given promises to these people" be began. "Ob, there Is no question of prom isee," she Interrupted. "I am here of my own free will, I refuse to answer any questions. I pray only If yoa would be generous that you ask ma none, that yoa keep me until tomor row and let m go not only from this place, but out of your Ufa. Then in deed I will be grateful to you."

No, you must listen to me for a moment When Pelham sent for mo after you had disappeared he showed mo your picture. I am not exactly the sort of man of whom knight crrants are made. I have never gonf a' mile out of my way to meet any woman in my life. My 11 fo here has seemed of all things the best to me, I am a dull, unambitious sort of fellow, you know, since I settled down here. and I expected to go on for the rest of my days pretty much In the same way, And yet when Pelham showed me your picture It wa different, I made him give it up to me. I told him liar that I was that I could not carry tbe mem ory of your face in my mind when It was already engraven In my heart. And I went off to Paris, Phyllis, like the veriest Don Quixote, and I camo back very and Indeed wheq I could not find you. Then you came to Runton House and the trouble began, I did pot oaro who yeu were, Phyllis Poyn ton, Sibyl Fielding or anybody else. let the others dispute. You were your self, and I love you, dear. Now do you understand why I cannot let yoa go away like this?" He had both hep bands In his now, but ber face was turned away. Then, without any warning, there came soft rapping nt the door which led Into the library. Duncombe reached It In a couple Of strides. He opened It cautiously and found Spencer -standing there. "I thought It best to let you know," he said, "that a carriage has stopped In the lane. If I can be of any as sistance I shall be bere and ready.' Duncombo nodded' and closed the door. Tbe- girl wa sitting upright tq her chair, with the old look of fear In ber eyes. "Wbo waa that?" she asked quietly. "Spencer," bo answered, "He dis covered your presence bere, bat be is perfectly discreet He knocked to tell me that a carriage has stopped In the lane outside." Sho was white with fear, but be only laughed and, stooping down, would have taken her bands once more, But at .that moment an unexpected sound Intervened. The deep silence ot tho bouse was broken by the ringing of the front doorbell. Duncombe started back, Tba girt lalf rose to her feet. "Tbe front door!" he exclaimed, Tbe servants will have gone to bed, I must answer It myself." She clung to him witb a sudden abandon. Sbe was white to the lips. "I am afraid," she moaned, "Don't leave me alone." He glanced toward the window. "By Jove, It may be a trap!" ba ex elaimed. "Let them ring. I'll stay here with you." They stood hand In band listening. His bead waa turned toward tbe door, but tbe gentle pressure of ber fingers drew him round. Her face was up turned to bis. Something of th fear bad gone. There was an eager, almoet desperate light In her softened eyes and a tinge of color In ber cheeks. He caught ber Into bis arms and their lips met 8be disengaged herself al most Immediately, "I don't care," sbe said, with a little laugh. "That Is tbe first kiss I have ever given to a man, and very likely It will be the last You won't be able to say that I have gone away without paying my bill. Now go and open tbe front door, Sir George." He hesitated for a moment "Say only tbe word, Phyllis, and no one in tba world shall ever take yoa away." She did not even answer blm, Hf left ber with a Utile sigh, "Spencer," be said, "if yoa bear tbe slightest noise In that room go In and bout for me." - Spencer codded. Tbe front door bell rang again. i ' (to M ooirrormtn. Salt Per Hoga. I have fed aalt to bog for year, ay a writer In Breeder's Oasetta, Chicago. Hogs require aalt tba same a any other animal.

Roberts, Director of the Mint, has resigned from tho Treasury Depart ment to, become tho hoad of the Com mercinl National Bank, is news but is hardly surprising. It was suspected when James H. Eckles died, thore would bo some promi nent man ihosen from tho Treasury to take his place. The fact that Roberts was his successor in the Treasury makes his choice the irore natural. He will not only be the head of the Commercial National Bank, but will soon ho tho hoad also of the Continental National which is to consolidate with the Commercial. His promotion is merely another striking illustration j of the fact that tho Treasury De pertinent Is the best of the govern ment departments aj a stepping stone to preferment in private com mercial life. Nearly every Secre tary of the Treasury and othor high oincer nas gone irom his govern ment place to some responsible and en . i well paying position in the (in mcial worm outside, ui ine youngor men who have been so promoted, Eckles himielt was a striking illua- stration. Frank Vanderlip, first private secretary to the Secretary of the Treasury, then assistant secre tary and finally the Vice President of the City Bank of New York and the recognised mouthpicoe of Wall Street, is another remarkable ex ample. But even more remarkable though less widely known is Milton E. Ailes, a few days ago a messen ger in the Treasury Department and rising through all the custom ary grades to graduate into the vice Presidency of the Riggs Nationul Bank of Washington, one of the most powerful financial institutions of the country because of its location and close connection with tbe Treasury Department. Yes, the Treasury is an excellent place to get into and a better place to leave, if one can leave it as so many of the higher officials do. The government is making a noise that sounds as though it might be preliminary to a prosecution of the 8meltef Truft. The Smelter Trust is the riohest of the Trusts aside from the Standard Oil Company. Just how much evidence against it has been gathered by tbe govern ment investigators is impossible to say, liul it one nas uvea in a min- ng country iu ine past uecaue, . a 1-1 there will not be much question that there is evidence tnough against.tbe Trust if it can only be dug up. Tho Smoking trust is so powerful that it can dictate terms to the railroads and does just as tho Standard Oil Company did in gain- ng its first supremacy in the oil business. With the railroads at iu mercy,' it can of course dictate to the miners and even down as far as tbe city of Mexico it has killed off almost all competition and the mines have to sell their ore to tbe trust or not sell it at all. It has not done so well or so ill in Canada, for the Canadian government has not much jlove for trusts, especially American Trusts and it hai not been allowed to get much foothold there. It will ba interesting to see what sort of evidence the Bureau of Cor porations baa been able to produce against it The Bureau by the way has the investigation of most cor porate interests that the gov rnment wants to prosecute and baa recently appointed a number of field investi gator! wbo may or may not prove tba sort ot men who are needed for tba work. It was rather amusing when "Jimmy".Garfield, now the Secretary of tbe interior waa the bead of tbe Bureau of Corporations ta sea the sort of men ba scclected for tbe semi detective work that was required in preparing government cases. There were some good tech nical men in the Bareau wbo did tba most of tbe work and got little of tba credit. "But the real favorites of the Commiasiner were what was known in tba Department of Com merce snd Labor as "the Ph. D's". The were regular doctors of phi-, losopby, good men in a wsy and graduates from soma of tbe best uni versities of the country. Tbe Com missioner was himself a college graduate. Of course a number of these college investigators proved to baas ignorant and innocents ba bies when tbey wero sent into the field. On of the most interesfing illostrations was a "Ph.D. "wbo was sent out to Kansas during tbe in vestigation of the Standard Oil Company. H stayed in tba Kan sas field for two months and did not sand a line of informolion to the Depar ment. Then he wrote a re port and this is what it was: "The price 'of axle grease was raised in this territory today half a cent a pound." That was all. He is still in service of the Bureru of Cor porations, but they have him sit ting in a nice padded chair iu Washington and not doing field work. There is more interest in the pen ding summons of John D. Rocke feller before Judge Landis in Chica ogo than depends on the mere im position of a fine against tbe Stand ard Oil Company. The govern ment has been interested in the first' place to see whether Judge Landis could make his determina tion to summons the richest man in the. world. Now it appears that he can, rather to the discomfort of said "richest man." But there is more back of. Judge Landis will nomi nally ask certain questions prepara tory to imposing a fine on the Standard. But these questions will have great bearing also on the suit of the government to be brought in r ... .:.,t.: i. .t. jt. oi. uuuiB luia uiunin ior tne aisso lution of the trust. There is little question that the Government will win this suit but, whether the vic tory will be of any more practical effect than any of the other victories of the government over tho oil trust is a serious question. l will mail you free, to prove merit, samples of my Dr. Snoop's Restorative, and my Book on either Dyspepsia, The Heart or the The Kidneys.
