"Do you know what we have been discussing, Hugh?" said the other quietly. "Not an earthly, old man. Was it that new one about the girl in the grocer's shop?" "WeVe been discussing the leader of the Black Gang," said Sir Bryan with his eyes fixed on the man sprawl ing in the chair opposite. Not by the twitch of a muscle did Drummond's face change: he seemed engrossed in the task of selecting a cigarette. "You've been in Deauville, haven't you, Hugh the last few days?" "Quite right, old man. All among the fairies." "You don't know that a burglary has taken place at your house in Lon don?" "A burglary!" Drummond sat up with a jerk. "Why the deuce hasn't Denny told me?" "A very small one," said Sir Bryan, "committed by myself and perhaps he doesn't know. I took your type writer." For a few moments Hugh Drum mond stared at him in silence; then his Hps began to twitch. "I see," he said at length. "I meant to have thBt defective V repaired." "You took me in old boy," contin ued Sir Bryan, "utterly and asbolute ly. If it hadn't been for one of the men at Maybrick hall turning king's evidence, I don't believe I should have found out now." "Well, what are you going to do about it?" asked Drummond after a pause. "Nothing. I was discussing the matter with Sir John this morning, and we both agreed that you either deserved penal servitude or a seat in the cabinet. And since neither course commends itself to us, we have de cided to do nothing. There are rea sons, which you will appreciate, against any publicity at the moment. But, Hugh, the Black Gang must cease." "Carried, nem. con., Tum-tum. It shall automatically dissolve today. Now, one for you. Why did you let Carl Peterson escape? I neary killed him that night, after I'd bayoneted the Russian." "How did you know he had escap ed?" demanded Sir Bryan. Hugh felt in his pocket and pro duced a note. "Read it," he said. "It was a pity you forgot that there might be another key to the padlock, Captain Drummond," it ran. "And Guiseppi is an old friend of mine. I "uite enjoyed our single." Sir Bryan returned the note without a word, and Drummond replaced it in his pocket. He rose and grinned at his friend. "It's deuced good of you, old man, and all that . . ." The eyes of the two men met, "If it was found out, I should be looking for another job," remarked Sir Bryan dryly. "And perhaps I should not get the two thousand pounds which I understand the wid ow of the late Ginger Martin has re ceived anonymously." "Shut up," said Drummond awk wardly. "Delighted, old man," returned the other. "But the police in that dis trict are demanding a rise of pay. She has been drunk and disorderly five times in the last week." THE END. IRRIGON A. A.

Frank Shively Service and the Small Account This bank is a service institution organized to meet finan cial necessities of its depositors. The amount of its ser vice to its dpeositors often depends on the bank balances they maintain. This bank must carefully protect the funds deposited here by its depositors. Money can be loaned only when we feel sure that it will be safe. When a depositor main tains a reasonably large, steady balance, it is an indica tion to us that he knows how to use money successfully. It gives us a reason to believe that loans to him will be safe. That is one reason why depositors who maintain large balances get better service from their bank. They are entitled to it. And even more than that, a large balance provides the depositor with sufficient funds to take care of emer gencies and business opportunities that may arise.
