EHOM bin concealment amid tin shrubbery Ned Warner rose to rusti forward as the brilliantly lighted llwouslue, with Ita gay puny of live, swept down the drive of the Vlllard home. Ills eyes were burn ing, ho wu breathing heavily, aud his Ingom wero curved like pin WH. for In moment moro he Intended to grapple by the throat the black Vnudyked face bent smilingly over Ned's lovely run away bride. At that Instunt three shadowy fig ure sprang also from amid the shrub bery, two men and a woman. There was no outcry and scarcely any strug gle, Ned Warner found himself sud denly Belied from behind, s rough leevo across his mouth, his arms pin ioned. Ho was lifted bodily aud thrown as Gilbert Ul.ve, with the graoo and gal laniry only possible to a polished man of the world, assisted the radiant June warner irom bis luxurious limousine. Tito deserted groom, his head still held in a viselike grip nud his mouth stopped, saw his bride cuter the house, surrounded by the guy group, tho dark Jy handsome Blyo on ono sldo and the white mustached Orln Cunningham on the other. It was Marie who mndo the gag to slip In Ned's mouth. Then Marie slip ped back of tho house. The two men,, one apparently a chauffeur, referred to as lleurl, and the other a gardener, picked Ned up and followed her. As they passed tho brightly lighted library Ned saw June's collie greet her with the height of ca nine Joy, saw Cunningham and Blyo making friends with the dog, Uieu saw the twinkling eyed Cunningham sit In a cosy corner with June and begin an animated tete-a-tete. The chauffeur and the gardener shrank back to among tho bushes with their helpless burden. There came a high powered racer .whining down toe drive,. The map let himself in with a latchkey'-and, with his hands In his pockets, strolled nonchalantly Into tho parlor. Mrs. Vlllurd,. talking with Gilbert Blye and Tommy Thomas, turned, and as she saw the newcomer her eyes wldeued Imperceptibly, aud a look of concern flashed down across her gentle countenance. "Well, Bert, you're a surprise," she said. "That's my best trick." be drawled, Kissing Mrs. Vlllard perfunctorily. "ITello, Tommy! Howdy do, Blye?" . Vlllard was Impressed as his eyes fell upon tho fresb beauty of June. "Mr. Vlllard, Mrs. Warner." Tho in troduction was very cold, and again that concern flickered for a moment on Mrs. Vlllard's fnco as she saw her hus band's eager Interest. "Mv nnnnm. ion," she added, and Cunningham and 'lommy Tiiomns, glancing at each oth er, smiled. With n careless nod to Cunningham, Vlllard walked over to Juno and, tak ing her hund. held It wuli ha amiii down at her with such obvious niimira. tlon that tho helpless bound and gng- gca man beyond the library window lurched free from his captors and tug ged at bis bonds until they almost cut into his wrists. .. Marie came back from thn and motioned. The chauffeur and the gardener followed with tho husband of the beautiful young girl, who was then smiling her courteous responses to the dissolute Bert Vlllard. Marie sped quickly across the shad owy back lawn to the garage and open ed the door. "He's not to talk, aud he's not to come near the bouse" she whispered as the men passed her with their bur den. She caught Ned's Indignant eyes xoa on nor, and that glare threw her Into a lmillc. "Whatever vdn fin ilnn't hurt him I" she hastily added. "Don't nurt nimr Outside the door Marie nanaed. Her eyes were distended until they were por- recuy round, aim nor high cheek bones gleamed whlto. . She put the knuckles of her rurbt hand attains! her fonth nnd looked over at the garage. She pulled at the lobe of her ear with her left hand aud looked In the house. She started back, and she started forward, and Bhe turned around lu a half circle. She was well nigh distracted with the weight of her great secret, wag Marie. il sim told SI 18 Junto that Mr. Ned was lu tho garage thcre'd bo an end of everything, and mnybe It would be all for the beet, or Miss Juule might ruu away again from such comfortable sur mundluKH. and It would Im nil f. ha worse. Mario sat down aud pulled her tliumb: then she jumiied up and pulled the other thumb. The piano began a succession of silvery notes. June, and over her bent the Inordinately tall VII lard. "Woll!" en Id the nardcner In thn dim uess of the gunge, aud ho brushed hie arms, it was all tho rest they needed He turned ponderously toward then captive, whom they had deposited In a corner on a bench. . - . Tho gardener's one word was a ques tion, an exclamation of rniuf ami an expression of complete and thorough bewilderment. He was a broad Swede, and his arms hung crooked with mus cles. "I know nothing," laughed the wiry little chauffeur. He a ninh man with an lnflnltealmal mnata,4h and a quick eye. and vcWMllke Joy ljii evervthlne. 'Thn inn Id of th rtinrai Ing mademoiselle telephones from the pantry to the garage that there Is a man near the hedge who must not come near mademoiselle, who must not speak, to whom nothing must be said, and all must be prompt! Volla! I am Henri, and all of action. I call my friend Jens." And he tapped the huge wede ap provingly on tho chest. "I bring my friend Jens swiftly by the mere force or my enthusiasm, we glide through the bushes so, like a snake. No!" He laughed and smoto bis frlcud Jens on me wmo cuesr. "j-iice a snake and a bull. We creep up behind the inter loper. Wo pounce upon him so, like a cat. No! Like a cat and a hippopota mus. We bear him to the earth. Mademoiselle trips lightly from her car, a vision, a dream, a ravishment!" And he wafted a kiss to the general abstract of beauty. "The charming mademoiselle is safe. The Interloper Is here. Volla!" Wide Jeus reached his hand into his pocket for n nine and danced over ta where Ned sat quietly In the corner. "well!" no said. "Walt." replied nenri. "I shall sit here placidly. I shall smoke a ciga retteperhaps two.. I shall think." Ned Warner stirred Imnntlontlv Vta gave another tug at the ropes which bound his wrist, but It was only an In voluntary test He must rest before he made another determined ntfemnt to free hlmslf. He gave a sudden wrench at hi bonds, struggling so fiercely to loosen them that he rose and reeled toward the door. Huge Jens Janssen stopped Ned from falling. The chauffeur touched, and. snrlntr. lug from his seat In the touring car, no jumped up, cracked his heels to gether aud snapped the lingers of both bands. "I have the grand plan to dis pose of our friend the Interloper. We Bhall teach him a ride of Joy!" He pointed to a car. Jens Janssen stooped and circled one arm around Ned Warner's middle aud deposited his .violent load lu tho ton- ncau. Marie In the pantry hall stood wring ing a corner of her dainty llttlo lace apron. Then she dashed back Into the servants' hall and folded bcr arms tightly upon the hollow at her waist. She dared not leave Mr. Ned where he was. She dared not do anything, and yet sue must. She burst out of thn renr door, was across the porch In two strkVa, down the steps lu one Jump and weut swlBlilug for tbo garage. As she came the touring car shot from the opitoslte door and went whizzing up tho drive, Henri lu front and in the tonneau Ned and huge Jens Janssen.
