Hortor Paul wont directly to Tony,
w lion, followed by his brother and
IMiiiip, he came hack into the room,
llo tried to dri.AV her to her feet.
"I'd rather stay here, plea>e,'* she
said, without looking tip.
"Who was In the room when the
man was shot?" asked Doctor John,
stnring at Mrs. Curtis and hor daugh-
ter.
"Just Tonnlbel. ns far a? T ran find
out," Sarah answered. "Hoaven knows
that Kathle and I don't want to be
mixod tip In such a thing as this. It's
perfectly disgraceful."
"Then upstairs," shot back Doc-
tor John.
Loath not to witness the vanquish-
ing of their enemy, the two women
trailed out reluctantly.
In spite of Tony's resistance, Doc-
tor Paul placed his nrm about her.
"Can't you tell your father about it,
dear?" he pleaded. "How did you hap-
pen to have the gun In your hands,
nnd what did he do?"
"I just shot him," sighed Tony,
j dully. She was too exhausted to say
anything more. What was there to
, explain, after all? The only sure way
to save Kdlth was to Insist she, her-
; self, had fired the shot.
I A strange, strangling sound came
! from Captain MacCauley. Then he
blurted out:
! "Tony, darling, please don't sit there
that way. Toll us about it. Do. dear.
< >h, don't you know how much we all
I love you?"
Did slio know? Ah. yes nnd more!
Her o\Vn devotion to him was almost
1 forcing tho truth from between hor
chattering teeth. She glanced at him,
1 and then. Edith, pale, beseeching and
wan, came between her face nnd his.
"There isn't anything more to toll,
Philip," she choked hopelessly. "I sup-
pose I'll be arrested. If he dies—"
She burst Into broken sobs and
1 crouched lower.
"He's not going to die." Paul told
her softly. "He only has a slight scalp
wound. So put that worry out of your
head. . . . Tony, don't you love me
nny more?"
Love him! The agony In his voice
made hor fling hor arms around him,
and slio clung to him shivering, en-
treating him to forgive her. not to
cense loving hor, for she'd die if he
did.
"Child dear," he murmured, run-
ning his fingers over her cutis, "you're
going to sternly yourself now and tell
your father just what happened! Now,
begin!"
He had not finished when his eyes
ran gilt sisrht of tho snfo. He stored
at its open door, and Doctor John's
gaze followed h|v. Then the latter
strode across the room, and for a long
moment peer oil into the opening.

"I didn't see him take anything."

Philip to have tho matter cleared that

"Tony, you know where tho^e Jewels

Then he ejaculated: "That man has

J she had been with them was deeper
1 than mer. He felt like shakinir (lie
truth from her. for the sight of hi-
horror-stricken brother tilled him with
rnj:e which did for the moment obliter-
ate the past two years In which the
j-'irl had been the one bright spot in | to
their home.
"Then if you know, Tony," Doctor
John ejaculated, "just out with Jt.
Your father evidently dldu't tawe
them—"
"I did," interrupted Tony.
"What for?" was his bitter retort.
"My brother gave you permission to
wear them whenever you wanted to!"
Tony couldn't answer. She w^is be-
coming nopelessly entangled, more so
with every word she uttered.
"God, I'd rather have given them all
to you," mourned Doctor Paul. "I in-
tended to, anyhow."
"If your father dies, Tonnlbel." said
Doctor John, sternly, "you'll be arrest-
ed. Oh, Lord! What a mess!"
"It's awful," muttered Tony.
Simultaneous with her assertion.
Reginald Brown opened the door and
minced over the threshold. Perfectly
certain now that Uriah had but a tem-
porary wound, nnd that for the love
they bore Tonnlbel Devon, Ills cousins
would hush the matter up, he had de-
termined to make his plea openly to
the girl.
"Tony," he said, coming forward
w ith a magnanimous swagger, "I'm the
only one In this house who loves
you—"
"You lie," flashed Philip, as Doctor
John took a step toward his young
cousin, but the girl's expression
brought him to a halt. She was look-
ing at Reginald with eyes that seemed
to him to burn holes through him.
"I've never told any one here you
cared for me, Reggie," she faltered,
drawing herself forcibly from Doctor
Paul, "and—and I took the things out
of the safe to help us along when—
when—"
Reggie stnred at her, amazement
spreading over his countenance; he
felt a swelling in his chest, an over-
whelming awe and respect for her.
"I didn't tell you to steal," he blurt-
ed.
"I know you didn't," responded Ton-
nlbel. amid the terrible silence that
had fallen on her friends, "but we
couldn't get along without money, so
I took the—the—-Cousin Paul's—"
During the broken statement Philip
Macf.'auley had dropped Into a chair
and covered his face with ills hands.
Doctor John was gaping at her as if
she had struck him, but Doctor Paul—
v eli, he simply reached out and
grasped her hands.
"You're lying again. Tony." he Inter-
rupted her grimly. "I don't know why.
but I'm positive all you've said Is a
fearful lie. Reginald, have you ever
asked Tony to marry you?"
The boy smiled broadly. Everything
was working out splendidly for him.
"Yes. nnd her father promised her
to inc." he boasted, "but I didn't know
until tonight she really loved me."
Tony shot him a look of hate, hut
she lowered her eyes instantly. She
dared not ri<k Paul Pendlehaven see-
ing her revulsion.
Rut It was to Reginald's credit that
he believed she spoke the truth. His
vanity wouldn't allow him to think
otherwise.
"I'd like to talk to her alone." he
said crisply, directly at Cousin Paul.
"Women are peculiar creatures. Why,
I've loved her over two years, and to
think she made Philip believe she was
going to marry him—"
"So she is." snapped Philip, raising
1 his head. '
"When I've done my damnedest to
ret her to UK* me eve# continued
II ei • d. overlooking MacCauley's
ejaculation. "You remember your-
self. Phil, what happened that day on
the boat."
"Don't repeat It," cried Tony. "Oh, I
nil "f you g" away. Let me alone. I j
want to be by myself."
"You want to be with me." contra- '
dieted Reginald, ami he whirled in ju-
bilant ecstasy on one heel, then clicked '
his feet together: "You love me, Tony'
You do, don't you?"
The dark bead made an almost ln> I
perceptible nod, but Philip in lvN )eal
ousy saw it.
He got up as if he were an old man

"If she doesn't love me and new
anywhere or do anything. She lin-
gered about Pendlehaven place until
the morning dawned. During the hours
preceding daylight -he studied over
the events of the afternoon and eve-
ning. As her mind clenn-d, all her
love for I'rlah rose up ninl clamored
lp him. She remembered leaving
him stretched out on the floor ns if he
were dead. When the town below be-
gan to show signs of day she walked
back jnto Pendlehaven place and slow-
ly up to the house.
It was a servant who ushered Mrs.
Devon Into the library where Doctor
John and Doctor Paul still sat, st nig-
gling with the mystery that had come
into their usually quiet home. After
vainly trying to force more than mono-
syllabic replies from Tonnlbel, they i
had put her to bed, gibbering with
fright.
Kdlth advanced to the middle of the '
room, holding the little bag in her
hand, looking first at Doctor John, who
tried unsuccessfully to recall where h#
had seen her, and then at Doctor Paul.
"Where's my man, my Uriah?" she
asked hoarsely, and then Doctor John
recognized her and rose to his feet.
"You got my husband here with a bit ,
of lead in im." went on Kdlth, mo-
notonously. "I want to see 'im; I want ,
to take 'im back to the boat."
For the space of thirty seconds, per- j
hnps, no one ventured a word. Then, j
as the woman swayed, Doctor John j
leaped forward and put her into a
chair. The bag dropped to the floor '
beside her. Tours began to flow down
her cheeks and, with her sleeve, she
brushed them awa.v.
"Where's my man, my Uriah?" she
demanded again fiercely. "Give 'im
hack to me, mister, and I'll— Where's
the pup that shot im?"
"Who shot him?" cried Doctor John.
Edith gave him a peculiar look.
"Reggie. Reggie Brown," she whined.
"I saw 'im, and Tony, thinkin' I did
it—"
A sharp cry fell from I>r. Paul Pen-
dlehaven.
"Tony vowed she did it," he gasped.
"Oh, my poor little girl! She didn't
even mention your being here."
"Tony's like that," assented Edith.
"She wouldn't peach on a dog."
Doctor John came to her side with
one long stride.
"Are you ready to swear Reginald
Brown shot your husband?" he de-
manded.
"Of course I am. mister." nodded
Edith. "He was always runnin' after
Tony, and she hated 'im. He wa
right over there when, suddenlike, he
banged a bullet smack at my man.
That dutTer, the dirty pup, ain't fit to
cleat Uriah's boots. When Tony
pushed me out of this house she says,
well, she >ays. 'Run, mutnuiy. before
somebody gets you,' and I was kind a
dazed like and ran away."
J lift then Philip Hung into the room,
room.
"I'm half crazy," he exclaimed and
then stopped, seeing Edith Devon, but
he was so filled with misery that he
gave no further heed to the stranger
and went on hastily, "Jack, Paul,
there's something behind that affair
of Reggie's!"

Latin Words in Our Language.
The Norman-French people who
settled Fairland gave to English-
speaking people several thousand
words with a few alterations. Then,
at the Revival of Learning, a still
larger number of Latin words came
into our lnnguage. The Latin word
facllls became facile; the word natlo
appeared as nation; the word opinio
as opinion; the verb separatum ns
separate; and so on with thousands
of other words. And. since that time,
new Latin words have been coming
yearly into our language and settling
there.—From "The Art of Writing
