It would naTe appeared, curious,' therefore, that the lurking figure followed the bank-clerk almost to his lodgings, had it not been for the fact that just before Jefferson Place was reached the figure sidled up to Hicks' side and whispered: "No news yet, Morrid. Pennold went this morning to old Loul 'the Grabber and tried to" borrow money from him, but didn't get it. I heard the whole talk. Then he went to Tanbark Pete's and got a ten-spot After that, he divided his time between two saloons, where he played dominoes and pinochle, and his own house. I've got to report to H.

"Only that I've got him on the run.

get a chance to let him know, that the

securitier stunt went, all right, and

my end of it is O. K."

The next day, and the following,

Pennold did indeed set for the young Italian detective a swift pace. He departed upon - long rambles, which started briskly and ended aimlessly; he called upon harmless and tedious acquaintances, from Jamaica to Fordham; he went apparently and ostentatiously to look for a position as Janitor-to many office-buildings in lower Manhatten, which he Invariably entered and left by different doors. In the evenings he sat blandly upon his own stoop, smoking and chatting amiably if monosyllabically with his wife and their new-found friend,

The door was opened from within sa suddenly that it seemed as if the man who faced the visitor on the threshold must have been awaiting' the summons. He stepped quickly out, shutting the door behind him, and for a short space the two stood talking In low tones Pennold eagerly, insistently, the other man evasively, slowly, as if choosing his words with care. He was as erect as Pennold was

shambling and stoop-shouldered, and although gray , and lined of features, his eyes were clear and more steady, his chin more firm, his whole bearing more elastic and forceful. He did not Invite his visitor to enter, and the colloquy between ttoem

was brief. It was significant that

they did not shake hands, but parted

with a brief though not unfriendly nod. The tall man turned and reentered his house, closing the door again behind him, while Pennold scuttled away. (More Tomorrow.)

she often told Frisky that all his four brothers put together were not as much trouble as he was, for he was always in some sort of mischief. Frisky .wondered what she meant by his four brothers together, "They would be pretty big if they were all put together," said Frisky, thinking his mother must mean that his brothers would be one big mouse. "They

would be bigger than mother if they were together, and then I guess she

would find I am not so bad."

Frisky never was still only when he

was asleep, and he did not sleep long; he was too. anxious to know all that was going on. As soon as his mother an& lather went out at night Frisky wofd hop out of bed. Out to the edge 'of the hole he would go' and poke out his nose, and one night his father and mother had to stay out all night Just because Frisky poked his nose out and Puss saw it, so there she sat

thinking it was Frisky's father or mother, and she would catch them

when they came out.

Frisky thought it would be great sport to fool Puss, 60 he would run to the hole as near as he dared and let Puss see just the tiniest bit of

nose, and away he would run back

to the wall, and so his father and

mother had to stay out until Puss was

called to her breakfast by the cook.

"You can stay in bed all day to pay for this," said Father Mouse, giving Frisky a box on his ear. "Look at your little brothers; they are in bed,

where they belong, asleep, but you had to get up. Will you never be

have?" "Huh!" said Frisky from his bed

"They don"t have a bit of fun, and I

do. You ought to have seen Puss;

she made a dab at me and hit her

paw bang on the floor." "I saw her," said Mother Mouse, "and I expected every minute to see her catch you. Some day you will get into some sort of trouble that will teach you to be good." Frisky cuddled down in his bed and went to sleep, and when he awoke it was quite dark; he had slept all day and it was night time again, and his father and mother were out. Frisky got up and went to the edge

of the hole, but Puss was not there,

were getting hard. When his mother and father came home they found poor little Frisky crying and not able to move.

His father looked at him closely, and then he called Frisky's brothers.

"Get up and help us nibble thia suear

Frisky. "I ll be good and never get

mured, as she reached the floor on which was the room occupied by Julia and herself. She was in a distinctly bad humor as she entered jbe dingy chamber. . Julia was lying on her ted,

and in a chair by the window was the ample form of Mrs. Halloran.

"Well, I Co declare!" exclaimed this

latter personage as Caryl appeared,

but Julia checked any further out

ingly, getting up from the bed, "would

grateful."

The portly landlady arose and left

the room, but as she passed Caryl

she gave a scornful look of which Caryl herself prr .nded to be entirely unconscious. Walking to the bureau

she took off her veil and bad removed her hat and gloves before she spoke to her sister. "Whai's the t tter. Judy?" she asked indifferently. "Got another of your headaches?" "Where have you been?" queried the older girl gravely, ignoring the question asked her. At the serious tone and manner Caryl looked dismayed, and a sudden guilty fear kept her silent "Where have you been, Caryl," repeated Julia slowly. With a gesture of impatience the

younger cirl threw off the nervousness that had seized her for the moment "Oh, for mercr's sake," she snapped peevishly, "dont take on that severe manner "ith rrel You know where I have been as well as I do.

"I was at Mr. Delaine's," retorted the other hotly. "How many times do I have to tell you so?" "You were not at Mr. Delaine's," Julia affirmed. "Mr. Delaine was not at home this afternoon.

Caryl's face was flushed ad stubborn. Julia was pale, but a gleam of temper was beginning to show in her eyes. (More Tomorrow.)

"Yes, I know it was good," said Frisky with a sigh. "And to think I had only a little bit I got from the sugar bowl, while you had a feast off

of me; it was hard luck." "You better be thankful we helped you out," said one of his brothers. "Father said you would have dried up if we had not nibbled off the sugar and mucilage." "Well, I suppose I am thankful," sair Frisky, "but it is hard luck just the same,, bringing home all that sugar and never getting a nibble myself." After that Frisky was very careful what he got into no more sticky

Helen and Warren Series; Story of Their Married Life

You look so well!" You must have had a wonderful trip. I've never seen you with so much color" enthused. Mrs. Stevens. Then as she took off her things in Warren's room: "What a quaint old bedspread! Did you get this while you were gone?" "Oh, no; haven't you seen that before? But I did get some interesting old things in Quebec. We'll go into the library."

But even the alluring absorption of showing her few treasures could not obviate the fact that dinner was late. It was half-past seven before Anna, her face reddened and her bow cap slightly awry, announced that dinner was Berved. As a rule. Anna was a good waitress, fast and efficient, but tonight she was confused, awkwardly nervous and forgetful. Helen had to give constant whispered Instructions. Several times Warren glanced darkly across at her, for instead of exerting herself to entertain their guests Helen sat in silent abstraction her thoughts on the kitchen. It was a relief when they left the table. Coffee was to be served in the library, but when Anna brought in the trav. it was minus the sugar tongs and one spoon. In an icy undertone Helen pointed out the omission. "Where's Pussy Purr-Mew?" asked Mrs. Stevens a little later. - "Shall I bring her in?" Glad of an pvruse to see if Anna's sister was

sHii thpre. Helen ran out to the

kitchen.

Not only was the sister there, but

by the window loomed a man a stout man with a black mustache. The remains of the roast, the salad and vegetables were on the cleared end of the kitchen table, and there were three clean plates with knives and forks suggestively arranged. For a moment Helen stared, petrified. The man. shamefaced, gazed out the window, while Anna and her sis

ter did not look up from the dishes.

Without a word Helen caught up

Pussy Purr-Mew and swished out, her

head thrown high and a challenging fury in her eyes.

'Oh. the beautiful!" Mrs. Stevens

took the kitten in her lap. "What do

"Just milk and scraps from the table." Then unable to keep it back

but Frisky did so; he poked at it and put his front feet on the bottle until over it came, and the mucilage ran all over Frisky, covering hi6 head and body. "Oh. oh!" cried Frisky, "I didn't mean to do that. Isn't it horrid, sticky stuff? I guess I'll run away from it." So he jumped down on the floor, tracking the mucilage all about and feeling very uncomfortable with the sticky stuff all over him. But this did not keep Frisky from looking for more mischief; he ran into the dining room and the careless maid had left the cover off the sugar bowl, so Frisky looked in, then he poked in his nose and it tasted good, so he jumped in.

"I knew her sister was out there," Helen rattled on. ignoring Warren's menacing glances, "but when I went out just now I found a man there, too her sister's beau, I think." "No, that doesn't sound like there'll be much left for you," laughed Mrs. Stevens, tweaking Pussy Purr-Mw's ears. "Oh. I can't help it it makes me

As a remedy for those easily recognized symptoms of infiamation as scalding urine, backache and frequent urination, as well as sediment in the urine, or if uric aclu in the blood has caused rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica, gout, it is simply wonderful how quickly "Anurlc" acts; causing the pains and stiffness to rapidly disappear.

The very best possible way to take
