(Copjrlfht, ISIS, by Wcttern Newspaper Daioa.) "You’re as good as engaged, Lina, M r spoke ber brother Gerald, aged twelve, with a gleeful laugh. "And to whom, pray?” inquired Lina, and she Hushed and fluttered as she guessed what his reply Would be. v "Of gourse there’s only one young rnan you would care about," said Ger ald with a shrewd twinkle In his eyes!, "and that is Alan Blair. He’s gflng away .for a week and he has hired me to take care of Hugo. I get two dol lars fjo’r the Job and we are to house the dog here. Is that all right?” Lina made no demur. She and Hugo had always been good friends. A short, chunky but powerful bull pup, Hugo essentially minded his own ^business and was well behaved, ex cept when he or his friends were Ira- ' posed upon. Then hq became a furi- , ous whirlwind of Action. • “Mr. Blair took,,, me through his room to get Hugo,” narrated Gerald. Say, sis, he’s got your photo ou the . mantel and a faded rosebud tied to a frame with' a ribbon. Why, say! your cheeks look like rosebuds now. • What’s the matter, eh?" "You ridiculous torment!" cried Lina, and, all pretty confusion but, oh, so happy eyed !• left Gerald* to himself. A few minutes later her sweet voice echoed from the garden as if express ing some great Joy. Llrya did not try. to hide from herself that she loved Alan Blair, and Alan Blair was only waiting for the fitting opportunity to assure himself of the fact. Lina worked at a large envelop manufacturldg ivkint where a great many girls wereremployed. As well Aaron Todd, an^under foreman, who was a distant cloud In the otherwise clear sky of her existence. He was a sullen, dark-browed fellow who had pestered her by forcing his company upon her ever since she had begun tvork at the plant. Only the day pre vious she had resented his walking home with her, hod told him clearly that she had thought nothing of him and never would, and shuddered even now as she recalled a fiercely hissed out threat that "she should suffer for her contempt!" Hugo was disloyal to his new keeper and promptly followed Lina, with whom he was a great favorite. It* seemed as though the sensible ani mal comprehended the Interest of his absent master In Lina, for the next morning when she started for work he trotted by her side clear to the plant. Equally Intelligent, Hugo ap peared to comprehend that there was no admittance for him to the great fac tory, and reported back to the some what anxious Gerald at the Moretoo home promptly. Evenings lingo kept close to Lina whenever she took a stroll, ns though his master had conferred upon him the dignity of coiniianion and protec tor. Aaron Todd had ceased to annoy Lina by continuing his unwelcome at tentions. but she shivered as often dur ing the day she noted him staring at her In a sinister way. One evening she was at the gate of her home en joying the balmy evening air when a girl she knew as Etta I'earce ap- • proached. She was a rough, boister ous creature who had been discharged from the plant a week previous, and LlncMiad never been faiuiUar with her. "Mollle Burns wishes to see you, Lina,” spokr the Pearce girl. "She Is and. asked me to got you to come to her.” The unsuspecting Lina accompanied Etta, who led the w*ay finally down a dark street with few* houses. At one of those she halted and started up an uniighted stairway. "Hold my hand in (big dismal place,” she directed Lina, and then after proceeding a few steps she ab ruptly thrust Lina into a lighted room, and slammed the door. ^ ^ Neither had noticed that Hugo had kept closely behind them oil of the time, nor that be slipped past Lina into the room and snuggled down Into a corner. Lina gave a great start She turned white to the lips as she was confront ed by Aaron Todd, sneering, wicked eyed as ever, and she knew that she was In a trap. "You won’t scream,” he observed, "for no one will hear you. 1 told you 1 was bound to marry you, and 1 shall. An automobile is waiting outside; clever Etta will go with us as witness, and ten miles safely away from here a clergyman Is waiting. If you rebel It will be a close prison till you con sent." Lina uttered a loud stream. Hngo sprang to his feet. She backed to the door but Todd Intercepted her. He seised Lina by the arm. A low but distinct warning -growl issued from the throat of the watchful Hugo, Then- One spring and .the animal was at j the throat of Todd.^The Impact of j the assault drove Todd olT hts footing, j He wini backward, his head striking* the floor with a crash, and lay still ami motionless.
