He watched Oswald step into it and drive away. Suddenly he recollected that Dorcas had not spoken a single word of praise or congratulation on the play, She was always enthusiastic and happy over every triumph that came to him. Bhe must have thought well of th» play. She had a full appreciation of Merry‘s talents and ehe had seeined to like him while they were together during the summer. He paused to pull himself together mentally, then he called hoer. Sho came elowly into the room, which had grown dark. "Dorry," said Wentworth slowly, "do :you know you have not said yet that ‘you likeâ€"my play?" â€" "Your play?" : "Why, Dorry ?" _ The girl spoke in an unstency volce. "I don‘t believe, Enoch, that Andrew ‘Merry told you of a long talik we had mt Juniper Point. You remember you Jeft me alone with hiin when you were called to Boston.

He turned on the light and with cool composure faced his sister, He met her gray eyes without a quiver. They asked a question which gould not be evaded. The girl jumped to her feet, "I édon‘t believe it!" she cried, "Besides, if he were, what has that to do with his play ?" 0 _A filush blazed into the girl‘s face. Jn spite of the telltale color her brother belioved her. "I hate to tell you, Dorcas," there was a tone of reluctance in Wentâ€" worth‘s voige, "but Merry is down again, dowp in uuA gutter." Enoch did not answer, Instead he masked a question. ‘"Dorcas, do you care forâ€"do you loveâ€"Andrew Mer: l',f" "Yes, 1 care for Andrew Merryâ€" very much. 1 do not love him." _ Enoch gazed at her wistfully, He knew, as she did not, how easy it is to cross the bridge from mhere friendâ€" whip to love. ‘"Why did you ask me that?" "I wanted to find out how much it would hurt if I told you the truth. Merry is not worth your love, be is not even worth your friendship." "It is not true!" ‘There was indigâ€" nant protest in the woman‘s volce. "I kuow better, so do you, Only this does not explain about his play, for it is his play." * "It is not even & collaborated play, Enoch. Why, every situation, the plot, â€" even the very words, are his." ' "He wants me to father It." "Ife must bave changed since he said goodâ€"by to me. He was on fire ‘ then with hope and ambition." "He has changed," acceded Enoch ‘ gravely. It was a relief to ‘make one | truthful statement. | "Is he to play ‘John Esterbrook‘ I when it is produced?" "No other actor can: Merry has the ‘ entire conception of it now." ) ‘‘Where is he?" "I don‘t know." ' "I thought you promised Mr. Orwald ! to have him here and get things startâ€" | ed for an early production?" ! "I did. I um hoping to find Merry | at one of his haunts. He must be T found and put on his fect. ‘Thera‘s a i tremendous lot at stake. . Dorry," he I turned to her appealingly, "won‘t you | help me?" "Yes.‘ She raleed ber bead with an eager geslure. "He went away to write this play." She pointed to the manuscript which lay on the table. "You remember he_ left Juniper Point suddenly *" "Yes," said Enoch slowly. "He beâ€" gan bravely enough,. ‘Thenâ€"he went under, as he had done so many times in his life." "What . was it?" "Drink or gembling? Enoch lay back in his chair, He began to marvel at how easily be could lie, because a lie had never come readily to him before, "Drink aund gamblingâ€"and everyâ€" thing." _ Her brother sbrugged his shoulders as if in disgust, "Of course he stopped writing. A man could not write in his condition. He sent for me. 1 stayed by bim night and day andâ€"wrote. _ You seeâ€"I wrote 1t." He lifted a written sheet from the loose pile of manuscript. “Pe;blplâ€"but it is not your play." Dorcas shook her head with obstinate incredulity. * "I told him so. 1 suggested we make it a collaborated pMay."‘ B E1 help you," Dorcas apoke slowly, "if you _ can assure me of one thing." "What?"

Merry Disappears. Suddenly, as if the carth bad swal lowed him, Merry disappeared. A week passed. Grant Oswald, in a fever of enthusiasm, had begun prepaâ€" ratiouns for a Broadway production. He turned a vast amount of responsiâ€" bility over to Wentworth, who shoulâ€" dered it thankfully, It kept at arm‘s length the possibility of dwelling much with his own thoughts: they were not cheerful company, and h> was racked by constant anxiety abou‘ Merry. There was not a single mo ment to spare when he could go int the bighways and byways of a gren city to search, as he had searched b: fore when the man was his friend He could not delegate the task to. another. He had prepared a tale fo: ( the public of Merry‘s whereabouts Oewald believed the actor was study ing his part and stood ready to appear at a moments‘ notice. Enoch wem ahead with the tremendous load of de tail that fell upon him, tolling day ana night, while is mind alternated be tween terror and hope. Every day the man was acquirim traits new to his rature. When ( strange. accident had tossed before him the possibility of satisfying bie dearest ambitton, conscience entreat ed loudly against the theft of another man‘s lifecwork.

It wha too late to turn back; It would mean the down fall of great ambitions and bitter shameâ€"it might even meau crime. 1\ seemed casier to take the chances. ; He rose, put on his hat, apd webt out.
