the deck.
He was heavy. and Ills agony
seemed to Increase upon him when the
desperate necessity of swimming was
over. He fainted the moment his drip-
ping body was stretched out, and Doc-
tor Royce had, as It ware, to save his
life twice, first to bring him buck from
the swoon of pain, und then to bring
him back from the annihilation of his
shattered machinery.
Meanwhile Jed was locked In a fe-
rocious wrestle with the captain of
Pierpont's yacht, who called the en-
gineer to his aid. As the engineer
told Plerpont, "I had to knock him
senseless before I could knock ufy

an ally. Freneau takes leave of Gloria.
Hhe *ees from her window an attack made
upon him. Doctor Royce convinces her It
In a delirium. A telegram followed by a
letter, comes from Freneau. She replies
but her telegrams are returned. She ac-
cidentally sees the supposed suicide of Fre-
neau reported In the paper. Gloria swears
to find the murderer of her lover. Royce
tells what he knows of Freneau to Mr.
Stafford. They seek to prevent scandal
from enveloping Gloria. She accuses
them of conspiracy against her. Gloria
sets about to run down Freneau's mur-
derer. Royce warns Mulry to tell Gloria

ner. Doctor Royce, however, follows her
and when he attempts a rescue, calls
down a riot on their heads The hall Is
raided and the crowd, including Gloria
nnd Royce, are arrested and taken before
Judge Freeman. The newspapers feature
Gloria's nrrest. Reporters surround the
house. Caslmlr arrives with the child

Royce to take Caslmlr's wife to the Staf-
ford home. She follows Trask and lands
on a houseboat to hear him accused of
Freneau's murder. She confronts him; he
Imprisons her, hut she ties him up and
escapes. By many stages she arrives at
home. In the yacht Gloria and the
men pursue the burge. Trask fires on
them as they near him.
SEVENTEENTH EPISODE
The Tell-Tale Envelope.
Shots that are fired from guns do
not often hit the people they are fired
at. The coolest target puncturer grows
excited when his target is a man, and
more excited when it Is a woman. Gid-
eon Trask was not an expert with the
rifle. lie had been crazy enough to
take the life of Dick Freneau—to
wring It out of him with his hands. He
thought he had escaped detection un-
JJl, with an appalling abruptness, Glo-
ria Stafford—though he did not know
her name—charged him with the mur-
der and declared that she hud seen
him commit It before her very eyes.
He had not been quite crazy enough
or quite wise enough to kill her then
and there when she was alone and at
his mercy. He thought to repair thfe
consequences of his delay by shooting
her down now that she reappeared
with an armed force at her bacg. So
he fired at Gloria where she stood in
front of the pilothouse demanding
his surrender.
They told Gloria afterwards she was
brave as a veteran and faced the as-
sassin coolly. Hut she told the truth
when she said that she was paralyzed
with fenr, so frightened that she could
not even show her fright.
When the muzzle of Trnsk's rifle
spat nt her, she heard the bullet sing
past her car. SRe was already won-
dering whether she were dead or alive,
whether the next one would strike
where she heard the first one thwack.
The pilot grunted and mumbled: "Hi
got me!"
She forgot Trask and whirled round
to see the pilot full across his own
wheel. The yacht wavered and swerved
In its course. Glorlu was the neurest
to the pilothouse. Sho had been a
pupil of the pilot only u few minutes
before. Sho run to him, lifted him
aside and seized the wheel by its pro-
jecting spokes, Just In time to keep
the yucht from crushing into the burge
ut full speed. Sho made a sharp turn,
the yacht swerved and ground along
the side of the burge. Glorlu mean-
while wus alarmed more for the life
of the pilot than her own. She be-
gan to cull "Stephen I Doctor Ryce I"
But Doctor Royco was too busy to
hear her call. His immediate inter-
est was not in a wounded man, but
in wounding a man. When he saw
tliat Trask was aiming his rifle at
Gloria again, his whole being thrilled !
with a ferocity unknown to him be-
fore. To save Gloria from being hurt
he would have massacred u hundred
Trusks.
He leaped aboard the canal barge
before the deckhands could make it
fast. He sprang at Track and seized
the rifle he held. He twisted It out
of Trask's hands before he could Are
a second shot.
But he was pounced upon at once
by Jed, who pinioned his arms and
Hung him to the deck. The captain
of the yacht, following close after
Koyce, laid hold of Jed and dragged
him uway before he could harm Royce.
But he left Royce supine on the deck,
with Trask's fatal clutch on his throat.
Gloria, wondering nt Royce's not an-
swering her call, clung to the wheel
till she saw the cable fast, then she
ran forward to the edge of the up-
per deck and saw why he failed her.
lie was in the baleful clutch of Trask.
Gloria, looking for a weapon of res-
cue, could find nothing but u life pre-
server tied to u rope. She began to
swing It about her head In circles of
Increasing diameter, like a lasso.
It was revolving nt a violent rate
when It reached Trask. It smote him
aside and dazed him Into loosening his
grip for just a moment. This wus
long enough for Royce to shake free
und regain his feet. He hurled him-
self at Trask, but Trask, seeing his
victim erect und menacing, lost cour-
age nnd ran. At the edge of the burge
he slipped and sprawled. Ho would
have fallen between the yacht and the
barge Into the river If the yacht hud
not swung alongside in time to catch
him. It held him up, but Jt held him
| us In a giant lemon squeezer, und It
squeezed his bone and flesh with
dreadful force.
Gloria suw the agony in Trnsk's
face und the sight was horrible. She
saw the yacht swing free again.
Trask's body dropped Into the wa-
ter.
Now the life preserver that had
served as a weapon returned to Its
original purpose. Gloria threw it to
Trask. Suffering as he was, he seized
it automatically and hooked his elbow
through it.
Now Royce also reverted to his pur-
pose as he knelt down and clutched at
Trask's collar as Gloria hauled him
In like a great fish. One of the deck-
hands fended off the barge and the
yacht ami kept them from closing In
again like scissors blades. Another

the hills under the tugboat captain's
very nose. They had the effect of cat-
nip to a cat. The captain begnn to
purr, also to reach out for the money.
"Let us understand the transaction,"
said Plerpont. "This man Trask Is
wanted on n serious churge. He hud
escuped from the Jurisdiction of Judge
Freeman. He was probubly bound for
Canada. I huppened to huve steam up
In my yucht, so I came after him. I'll
take him back and deliver him to the
Judge. You take the barge on up the
river and deliver It to the consignee. Is
that the agreement?"
"That's the agreement, sir," said the
captain, "pervldin' I'm took care of
proper."
"Would those take care of you?"
asked Plerpont, holding out two bills.
"What does 'C' stand for?" asked
the captain. "I can only count up to
'double X.'H
"C stands for a hundred," Plerpont
explained.
"Two C's will Just about take care
of me, sir," said the captain. As soon
as he touched the bill he touched his
hat, called his crew back to the tug
and set forth once more on his twice
interrupted cruise. Plerpont ordered
Jed released to cure for the barge. He
asked Nell to go with him, but she pre-
ferred to stay with her futher, ut Glo-
ria's invitution.
Nell wus sullen with Gloria, but
Gloria was neither surprised nor re-
sentful. She would have thought less
of Nell if she had been too easily pla-
cated by her father's persecutors.
Trask was no more responsive to
Royce's ministrations. He wus be-
wildered with pain and terrified by
his captivity. He was as little grate-
ful as a lion that has been trapped und
bound.
To Royce he wus doubly a mystery,
both as a patient and as a criminal.
If he were guilty of murdering Fre-
nenu, then his life belonged to the
stute, and It was Royce's curious duty,
as a citizen physician, to save Trask's
life so that the state might take It.
Royce had done what he could to
keep Gloria from Investigating the
murder. He had lied to her, knowing
that Freneau had been killed by some
person from some motive unknown to
The Fiflht on the Barge.

turned from one battle to another,
tearing now at Royce and now nt the
captain, recovered from the stupor
with which- she had watched her fa-
ther's disaster and, leaping over to the
yacht, knelt by him, calling to him
with wild appeals and threatening
Royce as his slayer.
Gloria came running down from the
upper deck nnd stood gazing at the re-
sult of her work with utter dismay.
Trask was crushed and perhaps killed.
Jed wns unconscious, nnd Nell seemed
to have gone out of her mlud.
Gloria felt that her head was cov-
ered with blood guilt. The sobs of
Nell were heart-breaking. Gloria for-
got all her resentments agninst Nell
and her father. She forgot that Nell
had kept her prisoner. She saw only
that Nell was a motherless daughter
who saw her father dying.
She caught the girl In her arms, held
her In spite of her resistance, mur-
muring: "Forgive me, you poor child!
It's all my fault, but we won't let your
father die. Doctor Royce Is n splendid
physician. He saved my life. He
will save your father's. You can trust
him,"
Nell also forgot all other emotions
In that one necessity for hope. £h
turned eyes of prayer on Doctor Royc&
and beat him on the shoulder with Im-
ploring hands, urging him to bring her
father back. It was not Royce, but,
doubtless, nature that brought Trask
back to consciousness. Royce
celved the credit and the gratitude,
however, when Trask's eyes opened
and his tortured lips moved.
Nell and Gloria were overjoyed at
the miracle, but Royce was the more
alarmed the more he studied Trask's
body with fingers searching every-
where and finding everywhere the
hints of broken bones and internal
lacerations. He pretended none the
less to be confident, for the snke of all
three, Trask and Nell und Gloria.
A bucket of water restored Jed
roughly to what wits he had. He came
up yelling, as if the fight hud not been
interrupted. They had to tie him up
to kfep him from continuing the war.
It had taken this much time for the
tugboat to round upon its course and
come alongside the barge. The crew
had watched the scrimmage with Im-
patient envy. They came aboard now
ready for carnage. They were armed
with weapons of every sort, nnd with
zest for blood. The yacht crew gath-
ered Itself to meet the onset of these
re-enforcements.
Now came the opportunity of Pler-
pont Stafford to use some of the heav-
iest artillery of battle—finance. lie
was too old and too little used to fisti-
cuffs to uttack roustabouts with blow
for blow. He put up the shield of his
poeketbook. The captain of the tug-
boat led his little army forward In a
wedge, demundlng with tugbout em-
phasis : „
"What kind of pirates are youse,
anyhow, and whut you beatln' up
the old man fur? For two cents I'd—"
Plerpont answered:
"That's what I want to know. What
would you do for two cents?"
"I'd t'row de whole bunch of youse
into de river."
"I see," said Plerpont, "nnd what
would you charge not to?"
This stumped the captain. He could
not quite make out Pierpont's drift.
As he pondered, Plerpont gave him a

him. He had told Gloria that her ac-
count of witnessing the murder was
only a delirium. He had lost her con-
fidence and her respect, and they were
precious to him. He did not know
that Gloria was tormented by a dual
emotion toward him, one of suspicion
and rancor, one of gratitude and af-
fection. Gloria was helpless in the
quarrel of her emotions. She could
neither love nor hate Royce perfectly,
neither trust nor distrust liiin.
While Gloria was at a little distance
Royce was questioning Trask in a low
tone, trying to persuade him to speak
the truth, warning him that he might
not have a long opportunity to un-
bosom himself of Ills crime. Iiut Trask's
mouth, distorted with suffering, was
also twisted with n sneer of hate. He
would not even answer Royce's ques-
tions.
Plerpont had drawn Gloria to one
side, and he said: "Well, now that
you've got your man, what are you go-
ing to do with him?"
"Find out why he killed Dick," Glo-
ria said, "and then turn him over to
the police."
"In spite of all the publicity?" Pler-
pont asked.
"In spite of all the publicity," said
Gloria.
l'ierpont gave up the fight. He
loathed the prospect of a newspaper
scandal, but If it had to come, he must
brace himself to endure It. He had
done all that he could legitimately do,
and more than that, to tjwart the po-
lice, and now that the necessities of
the law compelled him to give the law
the right of way or suffer the con-
sequences. He resolved to turn
Trask over to Judge Freeman as a rep-
resentative of the law and let the
judge assume the future responsibility.
When the yacht reached the country
house at length, Plerpont sought for
Judge Freeman. He had left the house.
Plerpont would have sent Trask on
after hi in, but he wns too weak to be
moved farther. Besides, Royce was
insistent In giving Trask the full bene-
fit of his medical and surgical knowl-
edge, and asked for a guest room to
lodge him in.
Now Trask was stupefied indeed. He
had expected that his enemies would
throw him Into a prison cell. And
they had Installed him In a luxurious
chamber in a palace. And his daugh-
ter was established in an adjoining
room whose fittings would have satis-
fied a princess. They almost terrified
the poor habitant of a canal boat.
Royce Redded to motor into the city
to fetch his surglcsl instruments and
bring out his assistant. While he was
gone Gloria stole Into Trask's room
to question him, but he had passed into
a state between sleep and coma, and
she dared not trouble him. She found
that Nell had fallen asleep, too, worn
out with emotions of every sort. Glo-
ria stole away to her own room. She
wus tired out, too. She felt thut she
was on the brink of discoveries that
would mean everything to her. She
was a little afraid of them.
She paused at her window, nnd, see-
ing Doctor Royce just stepping Into
his car, she mused on him. He was
an Increasingly interesting mystery to
her, very much at her beck and call
in some ways, and absolutely beyond
her control in others.
He looked back and waved his hand.
She thought he waved to her and she
answered his salute. Then she saw
that he was signaling to someone else
and had not seen her. It was a wom-
an he was signaling to, for he lifted
his hat. Gloria wondered who It was,
and felt an odd quirk of jealousy. It
needled her like a stitch in the side.
She would have felt a sharper stab
if she had known thut Doctor Royce
was waving nt Lois. Lois was with
Caslmlr's wife, reading to her nnd com-
forting the sick woman ns best she
could. The sight had startled Doctor
Royce, as much as It pleased him.
The wild and ruthless Lois had given
up her perilous Intrigues, Indeed, if
she could glvo herself to the monot-
ony of ministering to the lonely and
the sick and take pleasure and prhle
In such service as a substitute for a
social lawlessness thut had made her
hateful in Royce's eyes.
As he rode on into the city he felt
a great elation. He was not a relig-
ious man, but he loved a wholesome,
healthful soul as well as a body that
was clean and well. He had
kept Glorln from learning of Lois'
affair with Freneau for Gloria's own
sake. Now he believed that under
cover of the deception Lois' own soul
had been ennbled to redeem itself.
He felt that Lois had earned the
right to have back the letters she had
sent to Freneau. Whether she would
wish to destroy them or* keep them as

past, they belonged to her and to no
one else. Certainly Royce had uo fur-
ther use for them.
When he reached his office and gath-
ered up his instruments he took the
package of letters from tho wife and
put them In his pocket. Then he re-
turned to the motor and sped back to
the Stafford country home.
It was a long ride nnd he wns trou-
bled about many things, about Gloria's
determination to probe Into the se-
crets that could mean only n cruel dis-
illusionment for her, about the chances
for Trask's recovery, and the dangers
that threatened the Staffords If the
newspapers or the police learned with
whut Independence of the Inw the pris-
oner Trask had been captured and
held. He wondered at his own con-
nivance in the mntter, and he shud-
dered to think how many illegal acts
are constantly committed by the most
respectable people.
When he reached the Stafford es-
tate he stopped the driver of his car
nnd got out, telling the innn to tuke
the cuse of instruments up to the
house. Royce hud seen Lois strolling
about the lawn in a mood of solemnity.
He felt that the time was appropriate
for the surrender of the letters. He
wondered if he hnd the right to de-
liver them over to her. Yet he knew
that he had no right to keep them. It
seemed that he had so tangled him-
self In the net of the Freneau affair
that anything soever he did was bound
to be wrong.
He hurried to Lois nnd called to her.
She turned to him sadly and wenkly.
He knew too much about her for to
face him without shnme. He brought u
little smile of relief to her nlong with a
swift blush of guilt when he said :
"Lois, I have decided to give back to
you the letters you sent to Freneau.
I read only one of them, nnd I huve
forgotten, I think, what it said. I
think you have earned them back, nnd
I advise you to burn them up ut the
first opportunity."
He took the long envelope from his
pocket and her hund was Just moving
forward to take it when he saw her
blush vanish In n flush of pallor.
"My husband!" she whispered.
Royce thrust the envelope back In his
pocket Just before he felt David's hnnd
on his shoulder and turned to look Into
David's smile of comradeship.
Royce had to plny-uct with all his
might to pretend n cheer thut he was
far from feeling. Once more the lonth-
some phase of deceit was uppermost,
lie could not control himself under
David's eyes nnd he made an excuse
to move on.
"I was looking for Gloria," he said.
"She's over by the marble pool," Da-
vid answered. Royce moved on, know-
ing that he was watched. He did tot
want to meet Gloria with those letters
In his pocket, but he must go on with
the role.
Gloria seemed a figure In n painting
as she stood nt the edge ef the blue
water In Its white frame, with the for-
mal shrubbery and the graceful colon-
nade back of her. Tho boy Stas was
on one knee nt her feet. • He was sail-
ing a tiny sloop on the tiny ocean.
As soon ns Gloria saw Royce sho
beckoned to him with a cordiality that
she regretted at once, remembering
that someone else hud waved to him
before. Having Just seen him speak
to Lois, she felt sure that It was to
Lois that he had waved when he left
the house.
When Stas saw Doctor Royce he left
the sloop to Its fate and ran whooping
to him. Royce caught the child In his
hands and tossed him high, then
brought him to the level of his shoul-
der for a hug nnd kiss. He loved chil-
dren and children loved him.
He did not notice that the little
groping hands of Stas had happened
on the envelope full of Freneau's let-
ters and lifted It stealthily from his
pocket. When he set the boy's feet
on the ground again Stas ran away,
brandishing the envelope and challeng-
ing Royce to n game of tag.
Royce's heart bounded with alarm.
If the child hud carried a stick of dy-
namite In his hand it would hardly
have been more dangerous.
"Give me the letter, my boy," Royce
said, putting out his hand.
Stas laughed and rau u little farther
off. Royce followed, demanding. The
more unxious Royce wqs the more Stus
liked the game.
Royce was in mortal terror lest the
letters fall from the envelope and
somehow Gloria would learn their na-
ture.
He made n dash for Stas. Stas
whisked behind a juniper and circled
it. Royce chased him through a clump
of rhododendrons.
Gloria began to laugh and encour-
age Stas. At length Royce made a
frantic rush for the boy, and Stas,
growing breathless, made for Gloria's
arms and flung himself into them, pant-
ing: "Take it! take it! take it!
quick I"
He placet! the envelope In Glorln's
hands. She nas about to return it to
Royce without n glance. But the heavy
seals on the bnck caught her eye and
she looked down.
Instnntly she recognized the en-
velope. It was the one that had fall-
en from Freneau's pocket the night
he came to bid her good-by. It was
the one that she had seen the crouch-
ing figure take from Freneau's pocket
after Trask had murdered him and
run away!

Children Are Dif-
ferent.
DIFFERENT PEAS.
"I never could see the sense," said
one of the Peas in the pod. "why peo-
ple said, 'They're
yuj/i |\1' as like as two
peas.'"
* "I don't Just un-
derstand," said one
of the other Peas.
"If two Children
or two Grown-Dps
should be exact-
ly alike in looks
and ways—espe-
cially in looks,
then everyone
makes this silly
remark about
these two and
they say, 'They're as like as two
Peas.'"
"Well," said the second Pea. "I
don't think that Is so silly. We are
alike. There is no getting away from
that fact. No one ever mistook us for
beans or potatoes for Instance. No.
we look like Peas and we are Peas."
"Ah, but you don't understand," said
the first Pea.
"What don't I understand?" said the
second Pea.
"Of course," continued the first Pea,
"we do not look like beans. Neither
do we resemble the potatoes. And I
very much doubt If anyone would come
up to us and suy,
" 'Well, how ubout having n few-
radishes today.'"
At that all the other Peas laughed.
Have you ever seen a Pea laugh? They
fall around and sometimes roll off a ta-
ble in laughing so hard.
"Then," asked the rest of the Peas,
"why are you making such a fuss—
calling folks silly and so forth?"
"Because," continued the first Pen.
"We may not be beans. We may not
be potatoes. We must never be taken
for these vegetables. But—nnd here
comes my point. It is a very fine one,
so don't miss it!"
All tho Pens jostled nearer nnd lis-
tened. "You see," the first Pea went
on to say, "we are Peas and nothing
else but we're not so much like each
other as to have Folks say, 'They're
as like as two Peas.' That is what I
object to. Just look at the little Pea
who was lying near me In the pod. He
was as small as could be—while I am
a great, big Pen! I am as big as a
Pea can be. You'd never say we were
so alike, would you?"
"Never," answered the other Pens,
and the little Pea looked quite sad.
"An;l then, way up in one corner of
the Pod, little Peter Pea was getting
all wrinkled up worrying as to what
would happen to him when he came
out of the pod. Of course nothing
could happen to him, ns he Is too dried
up to eat. But, no cne could say we
ire alike, could they?"
"They certainly couldn't," said the
Peas.
"Now, you see I am showing you how
wrong they are, and how right I am."
"We all see," the Peas answered as
they shook about a little.
"Just Imagine for n moment, if we
said: 'They're ns like ns two Chil-
dren.' Wouldn't everyone be angry?"
"They would," said the Peas.
"And lightly too. It would he most
unfair, for Children are very different.
There are fat children, thin ones, tall
ones, short ones. There are children
who cry very often, and those who
scarcely ever do lit all. There are
children with light
hair and those
with dark."
"Well," said one
of the other Peas,
"we haven't any
hair at all."
"True, t r u e,"
said the Speaker
Pea, "but we are
of different sizes,
and there are dif-
ferent families of
us. WTe, to be :
sure, are called
the Telephone The otller Peas
Pens. A fine mod- Laughed,
em name we have. But we nre not
all alike. There are thin ones nnd fat
ones in our family—we're quite, quite
different."
"Well," suggested one of the other
Pens, "let's start a brigade, and call
ourselves 'The Different Peas,' and we
shall whisper ns we're being eaten,
'Peas are not alike. They are quite
different. There are thin ones, fut ones,
delicious ones, nnd drlep up ones.'
We'll just see if that won't inuke a dif-
ference."
"A fine scheme," said the first Pea.
"When our sizes are so different we
should not be though! so alike I"
Concentrated Friendships.
The jealousy which blasts friend-

much concentration In friends. If two
girls form one of those exacting friend-

persons seems an Intrusion, It general-
ly ends by causing one to be bored
und the other to he jealous. Have so
many friends yourself that it will
never occur to you to resent the fact
that you are not alone in unother's
