"But I am jealous." Marcia said. "She as Hood as told me that she would take you away from me, If I went on acting like a little fool. Her own words Peter."

"Think again," Peter insisted. "Has anything really come be- tween us, except my work - and your confounded money?"

The answer Marcia was about to make was cut off by the roar of a high-powered car outside, and the grating clash of brakes reck- Iemly applied.

"One gets all sorts of fantastic. notions about him," Peter said. "I've had some myself; but there was no real reason for them. But, I hope that he'll take himself off, quietly now. I could never feell quiet comfortable in his presence, somehow."

"No, but than is really some- Ihinc uncanny about him," Mar- cia said eamestly. "l . . . I have had strange ideas about him, too. It was partly because I was try-. in: to find out the truth abouti

"Certainly not smith." he said. "but I'll need two or three sittings to finish Lola's picture."

"But, Peter," Marcia drawing back a little. tested to me that she kidnapped you, and kept you for days under drugs. Just as if it was nothing. And then bribed police to keep you shut up . . . B it all ture? Be- cause she ought to he in prison herself, if it is." .

"What. is it?" the breathlemly.

"Lola's voice," Peter said. "she's excited about something."

They heard flying feet on the stairs. and then Lois. came into the room like a. whirlwind.

"Where is he?" she asked, speak- ing directly to Marcia. "Have you seen him this evening? He has not

been to the inn.

"Do you mean Smith?" Peter asked. "What's the trouble now, bola?"

"I mean that double-crossing

College Boy." Lola eeid. "Call him smith, or anything you like. They are after him, Peter. I saw them ride by in a car." "

"Take hold of yourself. Lola," Mai-chant ordered. "You told me that Smith . . . "

"Never mind what I told you. Lola. interrupted. "Get this, both of you. Smith is just that yellow pup College Boy, made over like an ape. And the old, gang is on to him. Have you got that? I dropped a. word too many in New York; and I suppose they ran him down by trailing me.”

"You are not by any chance?"

"I saw them, I tell you," Lola said desperately. "I ought! to know them, I suppose. Fingers and Franie, and a big man whose name I don't know. A greasepot. Where can I find him?" She was questioning

"I wrote Mr. Smith, asking him to go away," she said. i'I can only hope that he has done as I asked." ”And you don't care if he has- n't,” Lola sneered. "His bags are at the inn. Peter, are you going to stand by, and let them bump him off, without a word of warning? He's a yellow dog; nobody knows it better than I do. But he's bound to have a chance for his life, isnlt he?"

"Wait here, Marcia." Peter dir-

ected. "I'm ready. Lola." Lola led the way down the stairs; but Peter, as he prepared

to enter the car, was shocked to see Marcia slip past him and take a place by Lola.

It was in a place hard to get at. They had to tear away part of the outer side of the dam to get at the hole through which the water was working up from below. Of course when they made the opening bigger the water ran out faster. and the pond grew smaller and smaller while they did their best to find out just, where the trouble was. And how they worked! They didnlt stop I017! enough to get even I! bite of bark. And all the time thcy had to watch out lest. Old Man Coyote. or Yowier the Bobcat, or Gliitton the Wolver- ine. should come that way,

Croaker the Raven discovered what. was going on. He perched in a tree and watched.

"Silly thin!-Is." said Croaker. talk- ing to himself. but loud enough for them to hear. "Anybody is silly to work that way, What good does it do! They get themselves all tired out for nothing, What's the good of working for things you can get without. working? I don't work. but I manage to live."

Paddy stopped work long enough to look up and say. "When did you

"Yesterday." replied oi-oaks.

"How far have you flown today? Looking for another meal, flying on an empty stomach, can't be fun: it must be work." said Paddy, and went to work again.

Late that day two tired folk crept into their den in the bank of the brook, They were so tired they ach- ed all over, But that dam was tight once more. and the pond was coming back instead of running away.
