"Two bob," st1ld tile clerk Indifferently, throwing down a colu and pick· lng up the boots. "Two bob!" cried the other wrathfully. '"l'wo bob, you miserable sheeny." For a moment or two he spluttered lnnrticulately as I! speech was beyond him; then his huge hand shot out and gripped the clerl• hy the collar. "Think again, Archibald,'' he continued quietly, "think again and tbinlt better." But the assistant, as might be expected In one of hls calling, was pre· pared for emergencies of this sort. Very gently hls right hand slid along the counter toward a concealed electt·lc bell which communicated with the staff' upstairs. It fulfilled several pur· poses, that bell : !t acted as a call for help or as a warning, and according to the number of times lt was pt·essed, the urgency of tile matter could be lntet·preted by those who heard lt. .•1ust now the clerk decided that two rings would meet the case: he disliked the appearance of the large and angry man ln whose gt·ip he felt absolutely powerless, anrl he felt he would like help-very urgently. And so it was perhaps a little unfortunate for him that he should have allowed an ugly little smirk to adorn his lips a second or two before his hand found the bell. The man facing him across the counter saw that smirk and lost his temper in earnest. With a grunt of rarre he hit the other square between t'te eyes, nud the clerk col!npsed in a huddled heap behind the counter wlth the bell still unrung. For a few moments the hig man ;:;toorl motionless, listening Intently. Then, w!th an agility remarkable in one so b!g, be vaulted the countet· ami inspected the recumbent as1;ist:mt with a professional eye. A faint grin spr!'arl over his face as he noted that gentleman's conilition, but after that he wasted no time. So quickly and methodically in fact did be set about things, that it seemed as If the whole performance must have heen cut and dried beforf'hand, even to the temporary indisposition of the clerk. In balf a minute the latter was bound and gagged ancl under the counter. Beside him the big man placed the pair of boots, attached to which was a piece of paper which he took from his pocket. On It waf! scrawled In an 11· lltemte hand: "Have took a fare price for the hoots, yer swine.'' Then quite deiib· erntely the hig man forced the till and removed some money, after which he once more examined the unconscious man under the counter. "Without a hitch," he muttered. "Absolutely according to Cocker. Now, old lad of the village, we come to the second Item on the program. That must be the door I want." He opened It cautiously, and the snhdued hum of voices from above came a little loud~r to his ears. Then like a shadow he vanished Into the semi-darkness of the house upstairs. • * • • . > How Ruth Holds His "Big Stick" Say ..

But then, strangers were not encourag€d ro rio anything of the sort. 'l'here wns a door at the top of the flight of stairs, and it was at this door tlmt the metamorphosis took place. On one side of it the stairs ran carpetless and none< too clean to the ground lloor, on the other side the picturl' changed. A wide passage with rooms leatling out of it from either side confronted the explorer-a passage which was efficiently illumlttated with electric lights hung from the ceiling, and the floor of which was covered with a good plain carpet. Along the walls ran rows of bookshelves stretching, save 'for the gaps at the doors, as far as a p21rtltion which closed the further end of the passage. Iu this partition was another door, and beyond this second door the passage continued to a window tightly shuttered and bolted. From thiP continuation only one room led oft-a room which would have made the explorer rub his eyes in surprise. It was richly-almost luxuriously turnl:;hed. In the center stood a big roll top writing desk, while scattered about were several armchairs upholstered in green leather. A long table almost filled one side of the room ; a table co,·ered with every imaginable newspaper. A huge safe flush with the wnll occupied the other side, while the window, like th~ one outside, was almost hermetically sealed. There was a fit•eplace in the corner, but ther~ was no sign of any fire having heen lit, or of any preparations for Hghtlng one.
