"Say, Mr. Van Norden. there's :! j;trl
been coming here the last two days"—
i'oung Van Norden looked up with
boyish blue eyes, rather annoyed by
the loud voice in the quiet <>f his pri
vate office. Fie was further struck li.v

with smallish, keen eyes :lucl a square

"I beg yo:ir pardon." said young Van

"MeV Oh, It's all right. Mr. Van

the central office. Mtmlock's my name.
This girl—she's been looking for you.
as I get It. Missed you both days. So
I*take it she'll be on hand this after
noon."
■"Well, what of it, Mr. Mutdock?"
! '"If 1 ain't mistaken. Mr. Van Norden.
she's coming for money. Just hear
what she has to say. She'll tell a soli
story if I have my guess. We'll be
waiting outside. In case you happen to
need us."
Mr. Van Norden let his caller out by
way of the front office—a room with a
blackboard on which a boy was chalk
ing up stock quotations.
He returned to his private office
where about an hour later he found
himself staring down Into n i>air ol

out powder. Her gown had simple yel
pleasing lines, with a satisfying har
mony of color, a shade of tan Witt
trimmings of fine white lace.
"I beg your pardon." he said wIk-i
the office boy had gone. "But I didu'l

"Miss Summerton," she answered
holding aside a small hand bag.

"1 wnnt to interest yon, Mr."Van Nor

"What is odd about It?"
"Well, nothing—that Is, excepting
the fact that he once traded with youi
flrru."
"Who Is the man?"
"His name is Wentworth—Jamee
Wentworth."
"Wentworth," he said, wheeling in
his chair so that he faced the other
way. "Yes, father once did business
with a man named Wentworth—a
James Wentworth. A tall, handsome
man with black hair. A regular athlete,
if I'm not mistaken. Always in the
top of fashion."
"lie Isn't anything like that now.'
she answered slowly. "He's an old man
with snow white hair, and altogethei
he's quite a pathetic iigure."
He caught a tremulous note.
"Did Mr. Wentworth send you?" he
asked.
He turned arouud not too suddenly,
yet in time to see her withdrawing her
handkerchief from her cheeks.
"No; he didn't send me," she an
swered. staring at him.
"Vet you come for him," he said al
most harshly.
"Yes; 1 come to you. The truth is
Mr. Wentworth Is dying in poverty.
| He may live a week, maybe not that
long. Three days ago lie expressed a
wish—a simple wish that he might see
the green liclds again. Mr. Van Nor
den. I didn't know but you might have
the money It would only be a loan."
He slowly look up his pen and after
a moment reached for his check book.
I "Will jfltiO be enough';" he asked.
"Yes. indeed," she quickly answered.
"I'm glad to be able to do it for you,
,\{jss Suminerlon," he said.
She seemed to be avoiding Ills gaze.

the color in her cheeks, "not that t

young Van Norden, indicating tlie door.
"No; you didn't, did you?"
"I.ooli here. Murdo k." spoke up
young Van Norden. "that girl isn't a

"That being the case." came the
sneering answer, "why didn't you call

"I thought I'd save her the annoy

"You gave her a check?"

"She told you it sob tale?"
"A rather pathetic story, yes."

threw down on the desk a police pho

"The eyes," said young Van Norden
nervously. '•! can see a difference in
I the eyes."
"Let tue see: you say she went down
by the back elevators':''
"1 simply said she went out by this
side hall door."
Young Van Norden went as far as
the front otlice and stood a moment,
with a sense of unrest, listening to the
staccato writing of a market ticker. lie
then returned, lit another cigarette,
and after he had smoked awhile he
went to the inner room.
"1 beg your pardon, Miss Summer

lie fouud himself gazing into het
eyes again—eyes of wondrous beauty.
"Mr Van Norden," she said, without
spirit, "1 couldn't help but hear just
now. The transom was wide open."
"Ves, 1 wanted you to hear," he said,
facing her.
"Mr. Van Norden," she said, "I
couldn't bring myself to tell you be

for it. My name isn't Summerton. I'm
Mr. Wentworth's daughter."
lie stood staring at her suddenly,
with hardness in his eyes; then after a

He came to a sudden stop.
"Just a moment, if you please," he
went on, going to the front office.
"Tommy," said he to the boy at the
door, "have Mr. Murdoclc come righl
up. and don't wait to knock."
He turned to the girl.
"Ferhaps you aren't familiar with
the details of their quarrel?" he said,
seating himself again. "The trouble
was over a notification. Mr. Went

"1 see—you still have, yoor doubts,''
she said.
"There's only one thing I want to
clear up," he answered uneasily. "Cant
you wait—just a moment?"
He returned to the window, awaiting
his man, and presently the office boy
ushered him in without knocking. , *
Murdock looked first at the girl, then
at young Van Norden, with a posiled
air.
"Beg your pardon, Mr. Van Norden,*'
he began.
"No; It's all right," answered yeans
Van Norden. "I want you to-meet-this
young woman, whom you've been- fol

Young Van Norden turned to her.
"Miss Summerton," he said to her,
"Mr. Murdock la from the detective bo
reau at police headquarters. He has a
photograph—a rather good likeness—1
want him to show you."
Murdock slowly took out Ma police
picture, handing it to th© girl, at the
same time regarding her with keen
eyes.
"Mr. Murdock," said young Van, Nop
den, speaking to him, "I called you in
because, It may be, you'll be running
Into her more or less from now on

Young Van Norden then turned to
the girl, 'who had made her examina

"Miss Summerton," he said, "Mr.
Murdoch is detailed in Wall street.to
scare off any crooks who may show a
desire to operate below what he calla
the dead line."
Murdock took the picture - from, the
girl, saying: "You look something like
her, don't you think? But you ain't as
tall, and, as your friend here was say
ing, Miss Summerton, there's real beau
ty in your eyes." :
"A clear case of mistaken identity,"
said the detective In the front office.
Young Van Norden smiled to hlmseM
and immediately returned to the girl.
"Mr. Van Norden," she began, now
almost at the point of tears, ''you be
lieve me now?"
"My dear little girl," h« said, unable
to control his feeling any longer, "yes.
Indeed. I believe you. But that isn't
the point Half an hour ago I gave you
