UN FORGOTTEN Ned Flowerton forced a smile to his blanched lips. kTm ready," he said to the marshal. , Turning to Edith, for whose sake he was mustering the show of cheer, Ned called out: "It'll be all right, dear! They can't send a man to prison for being a fool!" To the marshal he said quickly in an undertone: "Come on, speed up; get it over with!" He turned and strode quickly to the door. Edith ran to him before he could leave and throwing her arms about him pressed her face against

j hi3 body, her body. shaking with siI lent sobs. Ned winced.

"Come on, why can't you!" he" called to the marshal who did not move. The man cleared his throat. "Don't be in a hurry! There's no one pressing us for time!" said the man with a conscious smile. There was a puzzled silence. Edith felt her nerves at breaking point. "Just what do you mean?" Ned asked awkwardly. "I think I had better let MrT Fenn explain that," the man said. "May I use your telephone?" John Ferrol nodded. The marshal lifted the receiver and called Fenn's number. "Fenn? This is Calhoun. I think you'd better come over and explain things. No, I want you to do it! ' Well, you'll have to do it!" There was a pause. "All right, we're waiting!" He hung up the receiver. No one spoke. In less than a minute, although it seemed an . hour to Ned and Edith, Fenn's voice sounded outside the house. Then he and his wife and their boyntered the room. The little nervous man seemed more nervous than ever. But in place of the note of distress which characterized his nervousness when Edith first saw him, there was a smiling embarrassment in his manner. "Calhoun, haven't you told them yet?" he asked. "It's downright cruel of you Dear people," he said, turning to the others, "this is my business partner, Jiinmie Calhoun. He i3 no more a United States marshal than I am. Ned is no more under arrest than you are, Mrs. Ferroll! It's it's a bit of theatrical stuff your husband and I cooked up for a purpose!" Edith moistened her lips. "Wh wh " She could not go on. Ned was as badly off as she. "I'll tell you, Fenn," John Ferrol said, his eyes moist. "Ned Ned, you owe Mr. Fenn much. He found out through business associates that Larney was using Ned and his heater to promote a stock jobbing grab which would land both of them in federal prison. So he got a friend of his in the government to seize the books of

the concern. Larney prepared to fly, but our friend Calhoun here took the risk of a prison sentence himself, impersonated a secret service man and 'arrested' Larney. ; "He took him to the office of Mr. Fenn's friend where Larney could see the sign 'United States District Attorney' on the door," went on Ferrol with a grim grin. "In fact, Mr. Fenn's friend is the United States district attorney. By this time he had all -the proof needed to send Larney to prison. But he made a dicker with him. Larney has refunded all the money he has taken in, has resigned all claim to the control of Ned's heater and is now on his way to Valparaiso or Ecuador or any other nice promising port where he decides to stop in South America. "Then Fenn and I staged this little 'arrest' here to show Ned what kind of partner he wa3 about to take on for life," continued Ferrol. "It was Fenn who got Fay Summers to come here at the time Calhoun was waiting in the wings. Ned, you said we could try to help you, didn't you? You forgive us?" Edith turned to Fenn with brimming eyes and held out both her hands. "How can we ever repay you?" she pleaded. "Repay me!" he cried passionately. "Haven't you given back the world to my kiddie, to me, at a time when you knew only evil of us? Repay me? Why, if I live a hundred years I can't
