WHEN Tyrrell came ont of the
jeweler's chop, he carried a
small package neatly tied
with a red string. He jump?
ed aboard an electric car bound up
town and immediately found himself
tipping his hat to Miss Marie Ol in?
stead, the last person In the world
whom he expected or would have wish?
ed to see.
Ordinarily he would have been mildly
pleased to see Miss Olmstead. There
.was a quiet, unemotional family ar?
rangement that he should marry her
some day, and he had never objected.
Of late, however, he had begun to
enjoy a little liberty, and one of the re?
sults of it was in the package that he
I A- -* CS>
THE WRETCHED THING TXCEED.
-had brought from the jeweler's. He
slipped it hastily into a pocket of his
overcoat when he saw Miss Olmstead.
There was a seat beside her, and of
course Tyrrell took it Unfortunately
it brought the pocket containing the
'package between them. Its size was
not great enough to cause any incon?
venience, but the wretched thing ticked
with a peculiar purring sound. It was,
.in fact, a clock wnica Tyrrell had pre?
sented to Miss Florence Coffin, daugh?
ter of Laurence Coffin, the theatrical
znanager, and herself a performer upon
.the harp-altogether a young woman
quite impossible as an associate for
Olmsteads and Tyrrells.
It appears that Miss Coffin was ac?
customed to jest about the sepulchral
suggestiveness of her name, and as a
result of it her friends delighted to give
her presents of a grewscme appear?
ance. In that spirit Tyrrell had given
her the clock, which was made of pa?
pier mache and shaped and colored like
a human skull, with a glass covered
dial in the top of its little cranium.
Florence was different from the girls
-of the Olmstead-Tyrrell caste. She took
presents-when she liked the donors
and was mighty glad to get them. She
had acquired a unique and interesting
collection of jeweled skulls and cross?
bones, of glove boxes shaped like cof?
fins and toilet articles in the form of
urns and tombstones.
An indiscreet young woman connect- '
ed with the press had recently "written
tro" this collection, and she had de
- scribed with great minuteness the clock
presented by Tyrrell, recklessly giving
his name to cold type In connection
with it. Miss Olmstead knew all about
this affair. Having read the article in
the paper, she must even be aware that
the clock purred when it ticked. That
peculiarity had been distinctly men?
tioned, and. blessed martyrs, how it
purred as it lay in Tyrrell's pocket, so
near to Marie Olmstead I
On the occasion of the terrible expose
which has been mentioned Mrs. Tyrrell
had extorted a promise from her son
that he would break off his acquaint?
ance with the beautiful harpist. As for
Miss Olmstead, she could not deign to
be jealous of a person living in a differ?
ent sphere, but she had shown a cold
disapproval that had been exceedingly
painfuL
The idea of marrying Marie Olmstead
had grown into Tyrrell's nature so
slowly and steadily that he already suf?
fered many of the inconveniences of ac?
tual matrimony. His consciente said
bard things to him when he had called
""npon-Florence. and I regret to say that
he did call upon her even after his
promise to his mother.
He called, and thus he learned that
the skull shaped clock needed repairs.
So he took it to the jeweler's, and when
lt was fixed he called for it, and, worst
of all, he paid the bill.
"I was looking out of the window,"
said Marie, "and I thought 1 saw you
?come out of Heinrich's store."
Heinrich was the jeweler. It was he
that had sold the clock to Tyrrell, and
Shat fact had been mentioned in the
newspaper article. It would not do to
admit that he had been there.
It is said that one may learn to swim
by falling overboard, and it may be the
same with lying. Tyrrell was in deep
water, and he lied.
"Indeed, you must be mistaken," said
he. "I had just come across from
Broadway."
She made no rejoinder. The car had
stopped; nobody seemed to be talking;
a most remarkable silence filled the
car, and in the midst of it the clock
purred amiably. Tyrrell knew that he
must say something to drown this
aound, but his mind played him the
trick that is customary in such circum
rStances. He could think of nothing that

was not groresqueiy suggestive or tue
very subject which he desired to avoid.
"I was detained down town longer
than I expected." he said in despera?
tion. "It must be nearly 4 o'clock, and
I promised to be home at that time."
He pulled out his watch. It lacked
two minutes of the hour. Tyrrell turn?
ed cold, for he suddenly remembered
that the little skull clock had a striking
apparatus. It must be just right, for
the jeweler had set it Therefore, iu
precisely two minutes.he would be un?
masked. Surely if the clock should
strike in his pocket there would be no
further use for prevarication.
He cursed himself for saying that he
was going home. Otherwise he might
have made some excuse for leaving the
car. It was a perfect certainty that
Marie would not get out What was to
be done?
He thrust his hand into his pocket
with a mad purpose of throttling the
clock. He would twist the winding
key until the mainspring broke. That
would stop everything.
He gave the key a few turns and
then discovered, to his horror, that he
was winding the alarm. In his proper
senses he would have known that that
key was too smalL Why had he not
taken hold of the knob that set the
hands? He might have turned them
back half a hour and thus averted the
striking. Now he dared not do it, for
he had no means of knowing where the
alarm was set. To turn the hands might
set the noisy little gong a-ringing.
Tyrrell's face was burning despite
the cold drops that gathered liberally
on his brow. He glanced again at his
watch. Only a few seconds remained.
At that moment the motorman rang his
gong with unusual ferocity. Every?
body looked to the front to see what
was the trouble, and while Marie's eyes
were thus turned away Tyrrell hastily
shifted the clock from the right to the
left side pocket
In doing so he very nearly put lt into
the pocket of a man sitting next to him,
and the incident gave him an idea. In
an instant he had acted upon it The
clock reposed In the stranger's pocket
"I'll make sigrns to him in some way.'
thought Tyrrell. But the moment was
unfavorable. The stranger had half
risen from his seat and was looking to?
ward the front of the car over Tyrrell's
head.
Just then the clock struck. It had a
very delicate bell; intervals of several
seconds separated the strokes. Marie
turned at the sound of the first
"Edward," said she coldly, "what is
that?"
Her last word, the second stroke of
the clock's bell and a violent collision
between the electric car and a big ex?
press wagon were all coincident Tyr?
rell was thrown against his fair com?
panion with considerable violence, and
there was wild confusion in the car.
Even Tyrrell lost his interest in the
clock for a moment, and the man into
whose pocket it had been put failed to
notice its presence.
All the passengers got upon their feet
as for flight but it was soon evident
that there was no danger, and they sat
HE STAETED ZN PUES CIT OF THE CAE.
down again-as many as could lind
space. Tyrrell remained standing in
front of Marie.
"Edward," she said, looking up at
him, "just before this little accident I
fancied that I heard the striking of a
clock. Isn't it odd?"
"Very oddt" he replied, with an eye
upon the man sitting beside her, who
was motioning to the conductor as if he
intended to get out at the next corner.
"And before that," she continued. "1
seemed to hear it ticking."
She glanced at the pocket which had
held the clock. Tyrrell slapped his hand
upon it, and then upon the other, and
the girl looked just a bit puzzled.
"It must have been my watch," sa;<!
he. "It ticks very loudly."
"But it doesn't pur," she rejoined im?
pressively.
"No." he answered with a calmness
that surprised himself, "it hasn't any
habits of that kind so far as I know."
At this moment the man beside her
suddenly rose and hurried to the rear
door.
"He knows all about lt. and he's go?
ing to steal that clock." said Tyrrell lu
the privacy of his own mind. "No; I
don't think he ls; not this afternoon."
And then aloud:
"Marie. I-I beg jour pardon. You
must excuse me. That's my old friend
Charley Jones getting off the ear. I
really must speak to "him. I can't let
bim get away, for lt's really quite im?
portant. You'll excuse me, won't you?"
He did not wait for her reply. Ten
seconds later he had his hand upon the
arm of the man who had preceded him
out of the car.
"Would you mind giving me my
clock?" said he.
"Giving you your what?" exclaimed
the stranger.
"The clock that I put into your over?
coat pocket?" said Tyrrell. "You were
sitting beside me just before the colli?
sion"
"No, I wasn't sitting beside you just
before anything," said the man sharp?
ly. "I was way down in the corner."
Tyrrell*glared at him for a "moment
and then uttered an awful groan.
"By the jumping gingerbread, it's
true."' he gasped. "My man changed
his seat He's on the car, and it's half
a mile away. This is the end of me!"
Without waiting to r explain to the
stranger he started in frantic and fool?
ish pursuit of the car, but a block or
two of this mad chase convinced him
of its futility.
"There's only one way out of it," he
said to himself. "Heinrich must get
me another clock just like it"
He made the best of his way to the
jeweler's, and there he told his story.
The jeweler was not sanguine, but he
accepted a retaining fee of $20 and
promised to do his best
Tyrrell went to see Florence. The
dear girl was prettier and brighter than
ever. Somehow she always looked more
attractive just after he had seen Marie.
It was the difference between a live
person and a picture; between nature
and art If only he were not a little
afraid of her!
Singularly enough, lying to her hurt
worse than lying to Marie, though in a
different way. One wasn't right, and
SHE LAUGHED TILL THE TEAKS RA>\
the other he really didn't like-couldn't
countenance in his own heart. Yet he
managed to tell her that the clock
wasn't ready yet and that he'd call for
lt some other day.
"I miss It so much!" she said, lik? a
grieved child. And he had a sudden im?
pulse to seize her in his arms and kiss
her.
He resisted this temptation and at
last managed to tear himself away. In
the outer hall he met a messenger boy
with a package and note. The package
looked strangely familiar. Moreover, it
was purring!
"Is that for Miss Coffin?" he demand?
ed.
"Yes." said the boy. And he exhibit?
ed the note, which was addressed in
Marie's hand.
Tyrrell did more thinking In a min?
ute than he had done before in two
years.
"Here's a dollar," said he to the boy.
"Walk around the block six times and
then deliver what you have. And keep
mum."
The boy grinned. Tyrrell ran up the
stairs and sounded the bell of the Cof?
fin apartments.
"Florence," said he when he was
again in her presence. *Tre come back
to tell you the truth and to swear that
I will never tell you another falsehood
as long as I live. I couldn't go away
from you and leave a lie behind, for I
love you, little giri, that's all there is to
it and"
"If that's true. Ned," said she, "I'll
forgive all the lies in the world."
Then he took the kiss that he had
wanted before and a few others, after
which, he related precisely what had
happened in the car. She laughed till
the tears ran down h*r cheeks, and
while she was thus pleasantly engaged
the messenger boy arrived with the
clock and this note from Marie Olm?
stead:
"Miss Olmstead begs to return to
Miss Coffin this clock, which came into
her hands in a manner that-Mr. Ed?
ward Tyrrell will be able to explain.
Miss Olmstead desires to say only that
the niarri went off in the pocket of a
gentleman who was riding in the same
car as herself. He was naturally some?
what surprised, but he rightly inferred
that the clock had been put into his
pocket by a person whom he had seen
in conversation with Miss Olmstead.
Supposing that this had been the result
of an accident, the gentleman appealed
to Miss Olmstead. who agreed to see
that the property was returned. Will
Miss Collin kindly inform Mr. Tyrrell
of the facts, as Miss Olmstead will not
see him again?"
"That sounds as if it had been writ?
ten by a typewriting machine without
human assistance." said Florence.
"Poor girl! I'm sorry for her."
"I feel confoundedly mean," said Tyr- j
rell, "and, oh. so happy!"

Here you get the news of
the world and all your local
news while it is fresh, paying
very little more than one
paper costs. Either paper is
well worth $s..00, but by spe?
cial arrangement we are en?
abled to put in both of thom,
giving three papers a week
for this low price. You can?
not equal this anywhere else,
and this combination is the
best premium for those who
want a great paper and a
home paper. Take these and
you will keep up with the
times.
Besides general news, the
Twice-a-Week ? Journal has
much agricultural matter
and other articles of special
interest to farmers. It has
regular contributions by Sam
Jones, Mrs. W. H. Felton,
John Temple Graves, Hon.
C. H. Jordan and other dis?
tinguished writers.
Call at this office and leave your
subscriptions for both papers. You
can get a sample copy of either pa?
per here on application.
