She had recovered much cf her composure, enough to enable her to shrui? her disdain of such stupidity. "I tell you only what my two eyes raw." ".And 1 tell you, while that assassm is at liberty aboard this yacht, not cno of our lives is woith a sou â€" no, not one!" "Oh, we shall search." Monk gave in as cno who inoulj-'es n childish whim.

'Why, I thir.!v two thins,s," r.aid L:;iyaj'd: "P'irst, that you deserve to b'j f.<und!y kissed." lie kiised her, but with diserclicn, and firmly put her fro.-.i him. "Then"â€" hi;, tone took en a note cf earnestness â€" "that if v/hat you have said is true, it n a pitv. and I am scvry, Liane, very corry. .'-.nd, if it is iir;t true, that tho conitdy was v^ell played, ilhall v.e let it vest nt that, my dear," H?.lf liftinn her, he ludped her back into bf-r chair, nnd as sh.; turned her face away, stiugg'ing f<)r mastery of her e'vx'iion, true or feigned, he sat I ack, found his cipnvet ci'.rc, and clip- pin;'; a cigaret lietween his lips, felt cht/al for a niattli. A» he i.truck the light ho heard a EuddcM, soft swish of (irfiiH'ries es the wonian rose. Moving toward the r.aloon conipan- lonway, she passed him swiftly, ytJith- out a word, her head bended, a hand jircasing a handkerchief to her lii)b. J'oigelful, ho followed her swaying liK.ire with pu7.;ilrd gazs till admon- ishsJ by the flaiii;; that cretit toward hi« fiMgcitipa. He put it to his cig- aiel. At the second piiIT he beard a choking ga^p, :ind looked up again. The woman .stood alore, en silhou- ette against the glow of the compan- ionwny, her arms thryst out n» it to ward off some threaieiied danger. A wcond cry broke from her lips, shrill v'ith terror, she totlc'red and fell as, dropping his cigaret, Lanyard ran to her. J I is vision daxi'-'ed by the flame of the match, ho soighl in vain for any cause for her niiparent fright. Foe all he c«uld see, the deck was as empty as he had presumed it to be all through fhcir conversation. "Popinot!" she cried. "Popi- lock myself .<5Ulrj«.^ SHE TOTTERED AND FELL. :Mi^Mj[ C^^- TM M«vle Stars So mf all wlio«« work U tmti after lh«7 try the deli- c{e«% laTigorating refr<*h- â- MMt of Wrigley'e Doublm |»BUE No. 84â€" '27. course," the woman said from the thrrshold- "and I have my pistol, too." Lanyard, scrutinizing tho deck with tho flashlamp, Kt«oped, picked up sonielh-iiig, and offered it on an out- spread palm upon which he trained tho dear electric beam. "Cigaret stub?" Monk said, and sniffed,' "A cigaret manufactured by the French Regie. Who that uses this part of the deck would bo apt to in- sult his palate with such a eignrct?" Then you believe it was Popinot, too?" "1 believe you would do well to make the search you have promised thorough and immediate." "Plenty of time," Monk i-eplied wearily. "I'll turn this old tub in- side out, if you insist, in the morn- ing." Whether or not sleep brought Monk better counsel, tho morning's rnnsaoking of the vessel and the ex- nmination of her crew proved more painstaking than Lanyard had ex- pected. And the upshot was precise- ly as Monk had foretold, nothing. lie reportcil <lrily to this effect at an informal confeience in bis quarters after lunclieon. "Now*," Monk annouiicefl with a little bow, "for what, one imagines, Mr. Phinuit would term the Klabor- alo Idea?" CHAPTER XX. THE TRAP FOR THE WOLK. "They arc such, monsieur," Monk aaid with that delitieratlon which be- comes n dimplomatic personageâ€" "your talenU are such that you can, if you will, lieeome invaluable to uh." Phinnit chuckled outright at Lan- yard's look of polite ohstiiitencRS. "Never sail a slraight courne-â€" can you, skipper? -wlien you onn gel, there by tacking. Let me act ns inter- preter. Mr. Lanyard: this giddy as-! (Mieiation of malefactors here present' ha» the Ivmor to invite you to Itoeomo' Eaae tunburn with Minard's Liniment. a full-fledftcd working member and etockholder of equal interest with the rest of U8, participating in all' bene- fits of the organi'/ation, including police pro'cction. And as addc^ in- ducement we're willing to wi.iv© ini- tiiation fee and dues. Do I make my- self clear?" I^anyard lifted his meditative gaze to the face of Phinuit. "1 find something lacking . . . You havo ?hown me but one side of the coin. What is the reverse? You have forgotten to name the penalty which would attach to a possible refusal." "1 guess it's safe to leave that to your imagination." "There would be a penalty, how- ever?" "Well, naturally, if you're not with us, you're against us. And to take that rtand would oblige us, as a sim- ple matter of eelf-preservation, to de- fend ourselves with every means at our command." "Means which," Lanyard murmur- ed, "you prefer not to name." "Well, one doesn't like to be crude." "I ha?e my answ^er, monsieur and many thanks. The parallel is complete." With a dim smile playing in his eyes and twitching at the corners of his lips, Lanyard leaned back and studied the deck beams. Liane De- Inrme sat up with n movement of eharp uneasiness. "Of v/hat, my friend, are you thinking?" "I am marveling at something everybody knows â€" that history does repeat itself." The woman made a sudden hissing Bound, of breath drawn shortly be- tween closed teeth. "I hope not!" she sight. "You sec, my friend, I think I know what is in your mind, memor- ies of old times . . ." "True: I am thinking of those days vl.'i the Pack hunted the Lone Wolf ill I'aris, and made him much the same offer as you have made to-night. . . . Tho Pack, you should know, messieurs, was the name assumed by an association of Parisian criminals, ambitious like you, who had grown i envious of tho I^onc W^olf's success, and wished to persuade him to run with them." "And what happened?" Phinuit in- quired. "As memory swerves, I told them thty could all go plumb to hell." "Well," Phinuit hazarded with a good show of confidence, "1 guess you won't tell us to go plumb to hell, will you?" "No; I promise to l>e more original than that. You shall ha.o your an- swer by the time we make our land- fall â€" jjerhaps before." .. Laiiyard went to bed, the last night out, leaving a noisy gathering in the saloon, and read himself drowsy. Then turning out his light ho slept. Some time later he found himself in- sniitaneously awake, and alert, with a clear head and every faculty ;)n the qui vive. He felt H presence, nnd knew that it waited, stirless, within arm's- length of his head. Without much concern, he thought of Popinot, that "phantom Popinot" of Monk's de- resive naming. Well, if the vision Liani.- had seen on deck had taken material form here in his stateroom. Lanyard presumed it meant anothei* fight, and the last, to a finish, that is to say, to a death. He heard a whi-vper, or rather a mutter, a voice he could not place in its present pitch. "Awake, Monsieur Delorme?" it said, "Hush Don't make a row, and never mind the light." His astonishment was so overpow- ering that instinctively his tensed muscles relaxed and his haiut fell back up<m tho bedding. "It'.s me â€" Mussey." Lanyard echoed witlessly: "Mus- Bunions Quirk relief from pain. Prevent shoe preeeure. At aU dnt and tlun <ton> Put ant onâ€" tke <«><» i» tone V/ilson Publishing Company A NEW COVERALL.

"I want to ask a personal question. Is or isn't your right name Lanyard, Michael Lanyard?" "That's an unusual name, Michael I^anyard," cautiously replied its pro- prietor. "How did you get hold of it?" "They say it's the right name of the lx)ne Wolf. Guess I don't have to tell you who the I-one Wolf is." " 'They say'? Who, please, are â- they'?" "Oh, there's a lot of talk going around tho ship. You know how it is, u crew will gossip. And they've got enough excuse this cruise." This wa.s constructively evasive. Lanyard wondered who had betrayed him. (To Ih» continued.) FormcT Premiers Urge Men of City to Get Allotments to Cultivate.

Before he descends into hla choeen underground sipot, he carefully studlee all conditions of the cave and vicinity. He was orJy 10 years old whem he mas- tei'«d his geography and he now la thoroughly acquainted with the geo- logy and topography of the land where he works. When he ie ready to descend he seaita- himself on a piece of board tied at the end of a rope and se^veral men hold the other end at the mouth of the cave and unwind the rope gradually tintil he reaches the bcttcm.
