the first time tu his life Ids strength
seemed to him futile, mude so by a

as a lower order o f being. Then. In a

For a time, while the clock might

was a signal for them oil to gathei
around the pale, trembling girl, forcing
Bob uwuy from her and staring at her
gtupldlyi nervously, gabbling unlntel-
llglbly.
Suddenly Bob strode into the group,
u towering tigure of wrath, elbowing
his way roughly. Before his sudden
intrusion the group Involuntarily fell
back, leuving him face to face with
the girl whom he had saved. A hot
rage possessed him. He saw red as
on that night when he had fought
Haggin.
The girl, in the reaction from her
fright, did not see this. "You saved
my life.” she said trembllugly. "It
was very good o f you.”
"You little fool!” Bob burst out
hoarsely in bis auger. “ How dare you
risk my life?”
Eater, in a cooler moment. Bob re
membered the girl and could but ad
mire her, by bis roughness restored in-
stuutly to tier strength and courage.
Her head went back spiritedly. "H ow

"Dare?” Bob held out one great,
hnlry arm and then glanced over the
slender tigure before him. He could .
Bob met his enthusiasm indifferent
ly. “ Ob. I'm not with you until you
meet my terms, you know.”
"W hat's the matter with the terms
I offered? Aren’t they liberal enough?”
demanded MacPberson.
“ No. I ’ll turn over the Fourth. Sev

Of course this means the Sixth's reg
ular share." It bad been customary
under Steele and Harmon to give the
Sixth legislative district the lion's
share o f the plums.
“ Say,” MacPherson sneered, “ you
take over the leadership o f the purty
and buy m.v support.
It would be
cheaper for me."
“ Take It or leave It.” Bob said cool
ly. "1 can do better with Harmon.**
"But I don't propose to buy you at
this price every trip."
“ O f course. This deal only covers
this tight. We mayn't be together next
time.”
j “ Why not?” the boss demanded
! sharply.
" I don’t like you." Bob replied, "and
you don’t like me. We mightn’t get
along, you know. Then I'll go some
where else. You can muke out a check
for the twenty thousaud right now."
“ Before you deliver the goods? Not
much!”
"Ob. yes, you will,” Bob said easily.
“ I'll do what I promise, and you know
it. 1 don't know that you will, and
after the election 1 couldn't make you
do it. Make it to m.v order.”
"That is. I’ m to trust you. and you
won't trust me?"
"You can; 1 can't.”

It was a lucky bargain for Mac
