"In times o f trouble It is up to women to stand together. I have known something for weeks that has been on my con science. I f you w ill look back you will see that most o f the trouble which has come to you has been since the man who calls himself John Steele came to work for you. You may re call the things he apparently has done In yea r behalf; consider the things that have happened. This superin tendent o f yours conspired with Tucker, your roadnmster, to cause two wrecks on your railroad. He dis charged Tucker to make hts game seem convincing. Your barn was burned at his orders and a harmless tramp lost his life In It. “Certain accomplishments have been placed to his credit. Your property, were It not for Its being so heavily in volved. would be on Its feet. I f your creditors should force you out now. they would be tn a position to make the operation pay from the hour they took charge, thanks to what this so- called John Steele has done for them, under guise of doing It for you. “ A ll this may sound beyond belief, but Just ask this Steele whether or not he is using his own name or tf he is not known elsewhere as John Steele Belknap. “ Yours in sympathy. “ A F R IE N D .“ Ills heart seemed to have stopped. Strength went from his legs. “ Why. that's a lie !” he choked. “ That's a black. Infamous —” “ W alt a minute!’’ She had risen now. and stood before him. "W h at." she asked, as though her voice would break, “ what is your name?" “ Why. that part’s all right. I can explain It. I am John Belknap. I did— ” “ And th is! Explain th is! I remem bered. you s ee!” She whipped a telegram from her desk, thrusting it towards him. It was from the State Bank of Ferryville. the nearest bank to Witch Hill. It read ; “ Witch H ill Lumber Co. owned by Belknap Lumber Co., Chicago stop S. M clver is superintendent." “ W hy . . . why. yes. Ellen. That’s all true. B u t you see. I couldn’t let you think I'm who I am. . . . I couldn't come In here and offer to help you. admitting my own name, could I?" “ Why not?” she asked bitingly. “ You wouldn't have believed me. feeling as you have about my father." She laughed then, with a wildness which startled him. “ R ig h t! How right you a r e ! I wouldn't have believed, n o! I wouldn’t have let a Belknap set foot on my p rop erty! I didn’t believe that anonymous letter when It came In ; I didn't want to. My first Impulse was to tear It up. forget I t . . . And then I remembered that my father al ways said a man who was right could stand Investigation. I looked up Witch Hill. I telegraphed that bank nnd you’ve read the answer. . . ." She paused, panting. “ But. Ellen— ” "N e ve r m ind! I'm going to talk now ! It’s a woman's privilege to talk. Isn’t It?” — a bit hysterically. ” l've heard It said It's a woman’s privilege to have the last word. t>>o. . . . Well, I'm having It, John Steele Belknap. "N o. you didn't dare reveal yourself. So you have a superintendent write a lie. You may have worked as camp foreman for him. but not as John Steele. " He knew you weren't John Steele. He knew your full name lie cause It was your father’s money that paid him, your father's money that sent you In h e re !” “ Ellen. E llen! Listen to m e! He's a poor. old. Ignorant man, Sandy! He's a man who’s never written a let ter o f recommendation before He simply forgot. . . . Don’t you see?” “ Do you expect me to believe that?" she ask'd, suddenly calm. He drew a deep breath. “ N o," he said, and shook his head ANNOUNC K I« EVEN l'.%PA SM ILE S W H IL E E A T IN G IN’ PE AC E Ruga are being beaten on back yard lines.
