They plan to run away together. The day before. Sandy goes to Ramon's office at his urgent request. He shoots Sandv and commits suicide. Sandy is taken to Hal Hume's shack when it is learned that her name is eoneeted with the scandal. Then Douglas is called before detectives, who learn that he was at Ramon's office on the dgv of the suicide. Although Douglas denies any part in the shooting, he is taken to jail and indicted for murder. When Judith learns of this she goes to the Hall of Justii-e prepared to tell what she knows of the affair and thus vindicate Douglas. CHAPTER CVII Judith feared she might be watched nd her coming lead to Sandy’s arest. So she was nervous and her oice inaudible. Three times she had to repeat: I’m his cousin, Jane Keith.” “He’s in oourt uaiv„ Miss Keith, ut likely to be in any moment for he noon recess. You better come ack at 1. The men are locked up ow and until 1.” “Very well,” said Judith, shaking. Would you mind telling me where he county jail is?” . “This is the ecounty jail, right ere. Miss.” “This place!” “Yes, this place.” “And he stays here? Oh, I see.” In a frozen hush Judith's eyes ook in the immense cage-like strucurp, built within and occupying alnost the entire floor space of the oom where she now stood. It was eparated from the small official rea. by three thicknesses of heavy ron wire. * * * A menagerie. Just like a menagrie. And he stayed here. He'd >een here five weeks, locked up belind these dim, sunless gratings. An nimal in his cage. Faintly: “Where do they sleep?" “In the cells. Those are tfce cells, ’he men are locked up now. But hey’i;e let out every morning from till 1 and out again from 1 to 3.” “Out where?” “In the tanks. Don’t you see? ’hose are the cells and they have his space on either side to walk in.” In the center of the cage, row on ow and tier on tier, from the floor o the ceiling, forty feet high, went hese small iron cells. Narrow, cir:ling iron stairways led from tier to ier. It looked very dark to Judith and •ery forbidding. She' had the odd mpression that she stood on the ieck of a medieval prison ship. Beore her and above in solid rows ind tiers were massed these cubbyloles of cells —walled away from the ight and the sun and the air. She was fascinated and sickened, mable to master the impulse that leld her here asking questions. The >fficer was very agreeable. “Oh, it’s not so bad. Miss. Most >f these fellows have been in before. They’re .used to it.” “You sav they’re locked up from STOP ITCHING Si Semo, the Clean, Antiseptic Liquid, Gives Prompt Relief There is one safe, dependable treatnent that relieves itching torture and that cleanses and soothes the skin.

What a beautiful skin! Not V/ . .pimple — not a blemish. Perfectly rounded shoulders and a veuus-like back! No wonder she’s popular. • “If I could only get rid of these ugly pimples, my skin would be clear and soft and dimpling, like hers—maybe people would call me lovely, too.” You’re right! The only thing that mars your beauty are those unsightly skin blemishes. Clear them .away and watch eyes full of admiration' turn in your direction, wherever you go.

3 o’clock until 8 the next morning? What do they do?” “They read. You see, there's a light between each cell and the doors are grated. They can see, all right. Better come back at 1, Miss.” “Yes, I will.” Judith turned. Ami just at this moment, Douglas, walking between two officers, entered. * * * Her mouth framed an inarticulate ery, the lips remaining fixed as though paralyzed over the unuttered sob. He walked in such a graceless manner—not jubilantly like himself at all, but with his arms pushed oout before him, the hands fist to fist. Handcuffed—they had iron cuffs clasping those two hands of his together. And his head was down, jaws set and grim. He looked up and saw her. Judith was compensated by that look—light and tears and gladness, as though he were a little boy. He took an involuntary, hasty step toward her. He said, thrilling, “Jude!” Then he frowned and bit his lips and stood quite still, staring bewildered and apprehensive into Judith's face. He spoke to the man at his side. This man came to Judith. “Soorry, we can’t let you visit/ now. You can come back at 1. He wants to know if any one in his family has become ill.” Her glance fixed on the young, brown head—the face grown thin and barred. “His eyes look different,” Judith thought—“oh, terribly different!” “No,” she said aloud. “Every one Is well. I’ll return at 1.” * * * She tried hard to smile gaily. But when they slid back a door in the grating and he went in he wouldn’t turn. He stood a brief moment, as though hesitant, then he went on swiftly, his head pitifully lowered. Judith hurried, almost running. She kept blinking, walking blindly. “Not that way, Miss. Down here.” He opened the door to a bridgelike passage leading to' the other wing of the building. This bridge also was grated to the very top of the building. But.the sun came here and a little rush of air against her cheeks. There were window boxes built in a long on either side. They were planted with Wandering Jew —green, waxy leaves falling in long streamers and swaying a little. “He must he glad to see those leaves,” Judith thought. “He must be glad to get out. Even to be tried —even to sit in the court charged with a murder.” ♦ * * She went to a little restaurant in Third St. ' She ordered coffee and a sandwich as though she meant to eat. She dropped lumps of sugar into her cup. Five weeks there —locked up in a little room G by 8 and 8 feet high—sharing this closet with another —lying on a wire spring hitched to the wiill—a very narrow spring. And every afternoon from 3 o’clock until he went to bed at 9 he was closed up like that. No wonder he was thin—a dark look in his eyes. Judith had pictured the jail as a separate building with small, bare cells. But these cells opened to the light and the air. They were rooms. Not cages—cages set one on top of the other like those one sees in a circus - And he —Wad lowered, lfed into a place like that. She suddenly remembered him straddling the board they had suspended on two ladders when they tinted the room for Sandy. The air of him as he splashed the brush; as he said, “Well, you must care a heck of a lot for this dame of a Sandy that you spoil, your pretty hands for her, Jude!” Judith stirred the coffee, watching the way a tear dropped. “I don't want to cry,” she told herself, lowly. "It would he terrible to have him see me cry.” More softly: “He was glad to see

. . . Oh, I know he was awfully glad . . .” •>. And this happiness had rushed like a light to his eyes. It had come first, before his fear. His first impulse was the joy of seeing Judith. After that he spoke to the officer. Only after that he asked if anyone was ill. • ‘ “I can't help it,” Judith murmured. She meant that she couldn't stem the tide of melting sweetness flowing through her with this thought: "He was glad to see her!” The men were walking up and down the alleyway on either side of the cells when Judith returned. They were pacing quickly back and forth. x The officer who had spoken to her before, smiled. “I'll call him. You can stand there, Miss.” “Oh—will I talk to him right here?” “Yes—there—” He meant that she should stand just outside the iron grating—stand there with Douglas on the other side. This was the way they could visit. As Judith stood, several of the prisoners walked up to the netting and stared at her. They cupped their hands over their eyes and frankly stared. But when Douglas approached they walked away—all of them. She whispered with her lips close to the grating: “Douglas—why, hello, Douglas.” And he, seeming almost to drink
