Miss Prettyman took her leave a d Dain -

'Good Heavens !' he exclaime , ' that

to crush anybody. I wond r if I could get

No such luck, however. A Steve.ason or a
'Rider Haggard might save s -as well wish
for the moon, however. I must truet to a
work of genius without a name th t is more
than evident. I wonder if Smith can give
me something strong enough. He certainly
spoke of having an important work on
hand.
Daintree hastily pulled his wa,toh out.
'1 know what Pll do,' lee said to himself.
'He won't b here for nearly t o hours, 1'11
just go round to his rooms on tlie phance of
his having le t his manueeri t about. I

'Is Mr. Sm•eh coming round?' i
' He'll be here at 2:15, but I'll be back be-

Daintree seized his hat and rushed out , of
the office. I
Five minutes later a han om had set li m
down at the door of Smith' lodgings.
He said a word to the la dla.dy and tan

it was not especially Sid , and looked hot
and uninviting, but as Deli tree had hoped,a
pile,of manwcriptf and everal sheets of
paper with writing erased and marginal -
notes and other tokens of xard study' lay
upon the open davenport.
' Mr. Smith's that particular,' said the
landlady, following Daintree Einto the room,
'1 daren't lay so much as a finger on his
work. Dust -bless you he thinks nothing
of dust -seems to ale as if he liked it.
'Don't you tOuch my papers, Mrs. Mason,'
says he. ' No matter if they are untidy
and messy, yCii leave them as they are.' Its
frettin' and nio mistake to a Clean, tidy Lody

Smith alway4 have their way. I wouldn't
touch 'em r edly if I was you, sir. I
wouldn't, he' I be fretted wonderful.'
' Its all right, my good woman,' said
Daintree, in a lofty tone. ' Smith knows
me, and I shall explain eo him what I am
doing. I want to look Over a, paper that
my friend is writing, and would be glad if
you would allow me to _have the '1room to

CHAPTER XXXII.
'Now you must explain yourselfany dear
fellow,' sad Daintree afarting up to meet
his friend.}
Smith's rr'ia nner was excited -his eyes had
a sparkle in theme -his lips were resolute.
'1 know you have a right to blame me,
Daintree,'he said.i ' I shall listen to your
blame- wit patienee and not attempt to de-
fend myse f! ,
'You certainly had no right to -, abeent
yourself,' egan Daintree. ' You are more
or less bound to me in honor -at least so I
think. However, there is no time to dis-
cuss the -whys or the wherefores just now.
You have been away and you have come
back. That is the main thing. Now to
business -I have taken a liberty with you,
Smith.' i
Before you begin,' interrupted Smith, 'I
m st explain something !-I shall not be a
in ment. I have taken Phyllis Martind le
by her own request to my mother's house.
As soon as poseiblas-Las soon as ever alicen e
wi I allow us, she and I are to be marrie .
N w as you say, Daintree, to business.'
You are an extraordinary fellow,' sa d
D intree. 'You have won the heiress, a d
he hundred thousand pounds, and yet y u
lo k as cod' and as easily triumphant as if
au h luck were in the ordinary day's wor .
I congratulate you of course -I am rath r
surprised at your manner of wooing, b t
nel;rer mind, all's well that ends well. W 11
yod oome a.nd dine with me to -night, Smit ,
we shall then have time to talk over that
pait of the business Now I am afraid I
must press your attention to my own affairs.
Do you kn w that Hopkinson has failed us
at the las moment. He has gone and
knocked hi self up and of course the poor
' Eagle' a d all my fortunes have to suffer.
I have bee nearly at my wit's end 50 know
with what leading serieL to open 1 The
Eagle,' and but foe ou coming to the ra-
mie Ishoald be abso tely driven to despair.'
'1 don't know what you mean by my
coming to the, rescue,' said Smith. ' Of
course I shall be only too delighted to help
you if it were in ma power, but how can .1
possibly supply Hopkinson's place -s. man
of his reputation -his strength, his genius !
Why, Dai tree, the thing is impossible !'
' Not at all,' said Daintree, ' or at leant
it need not be, as the sequel will prove. In
your absence, Smith, I took tie liberty
which one brother would take wi5h another.
I went to your rooms and-ani:1-1 have
read this ( ere Daintrea pulled a roll of
manuscrip out of leis pocket), ad I have
brought it home w th me. Here is the op-
ening serial for ' he Eagle.' ere is the
novel which will secure succes to ' The
Eagle ' and make' your name and your
fame Smith. Granted that it is a first
work-grahted that you are unknown, nev-
ertheless ith thi story I shall launch my
paper wit out a thought !of fear. Yes, my
dear boy, congratulate you- I more than
congratula e you. I have read the first six

'1 do ob; eat to i4,' said Smith. ' What
is more it cannot e done. I must speak
firmly, even if it gives you pain. That
novel. is not for ' he Eagle.' It is -not fin-
ished yet, it will ia t be ready for publica-
tion for weeks and months to ; come and
when it is ready, itis not to ru as a serial,
but must a pear as a novel to stand or fall
on its own erits. I Give me back the manu-
script, Dai tree, I ,am deeply sorry not to
oblige you, but the thing is impossible.'
