But if she’s hurt—in a hospital—” Stoddard hesitated about telling Mallcry he knew Karen was at Ce celia’s, For he iknew Mallory well enough that he’d run down there and scare the wits out of the Mari’iettos. Dick got on the telephone. He called ©very hospital in town inquir ed about unindentified women. Bel levue had one. “How old is she?” ., "About 20.” "Badly hurt?” "Unconscious. Fractured skull.” “Come,” Together the two dashed off for the hospital. In dim corridor they tiptoed to ward. A nurse led them to young girl’s bed. Dick closed eyes for a moment before lie looked. The girl had dark hair, turned away without back into Mallory’s car. “Now let’s be sensible Karen is an'intelligent girl, faith in her, thing foolish. As .Stoddard spoke tbe car turn ed and they caught a glimpse of the East River. “She wouldn’t do that!” Dick cried aloud, stung at the thought.

We’ve got to keep our heads.” Mallory, too, seemed to were being a little absurd.

"Mr. Mallory, do you want to trust me?” The old man hesitated, finally held out his hand, “Then we must get to work,” Dick continued. "We must be careful who cc-mes in and out of this house.

He went straight through the empty sitting room to Dick’s bedroom. A quick turn showed him that nobody was there. Henry was calling the desk down stairs as Mallory came back. "Put up that telephone, you fool. This is not a hold up. I am Karen Mal lory’s father. Where is she?” ‘‘But I haven’t seen Henry dropped the phone suddenly. "Where is the Judge?” “He is dining at Judge Tate’s house with Miss Marcia. It is a party for them.” "Where does Juclge Tate live?” Henry, his hands shaking, hunt ed through the telephone book. The man had the Tate borne short ly. "Get your master on the line!” People obeyed Jason Mallory out comment. When Henry finally spoke to he handed the phone, over to lory. “Stoddard, where is my daughter?’ Dick, talking from the library of the Tate home with Marcia standing near him, almost dropped tbe phone.

"What Is it Dick?” "Jitst a political matter, I’m sorry Marcia, but Jim wht see you get home, I may be able to come back later, but I can’t promise,” Marcia was frankly annoyed and did not hesitate to* show it, "I don’t see why you have to leave at this hour. It’s after midnight. Take me with you.” But Dick had already retrieved his hat and coat. He kissed her light ly on the cheek and bolted. Fifteen minutes later he was facing Mallory in his apartment. The -father, hating this man as he had never hated any one els© before, could not help but be sorry for him. "If anything’s .happened to her X ■will never forgive myself!” said Stoddard.

We cried.” Dick’s shoulders drooped wearily. He had not slept since Friday night. At the moment he’d have given everything, political career, Judge ship, friends, just to have Karen in his -arms. Back in his apartment, dressing for dinner with Marcia, he , could stand it no longer. He had to see Karen again.He was late as it was, ibut he had to talk t* «er.
