"How long did yo usay It would take
you to finish, Tokoramo?" she asked
after a while. She had been revolving a
plan in her mind.
"About two weeks. It must be finished
by the first oT the month.”
A,Promlse.
"Couldn't you -Work just as well in the
country?”
"1 could not take the time to move, my
child,” he replied She appeared to re
flect
"Will you promise me to go away and
rest when you are finished?” she asked.
"Yes,.”, he answered.in a curious voice.
"1 don't mean just for a few days.” she
insisted "I mean a good long rest."
His dark eyes were turned up to her
face for a fleeting instant. he an
swered very softly and slowly.
"I shall go away as soon as I am fin
shed. Teri, and I hope I shall rest. At
any rats. I shall go away for a long time."
"To Japan?”
"No," he winched. "Not to Japan."
"No?” she repeated, wonderingly.
"Where, then?”
"I do not know. Teri." he replied,
gravely.
"I see! You think a complete change
will do you good?”
"Yes; a complete change is what I
want.” And he closed his eyes again.
The girl studied his face compassionately.
"I think you .are tired enough to sleep
—now," she said. "Aren't you?”
"I suppose so,” he sighed, without open
ing his eyes.
"Wil! you go to bed if I leave?”
"I suppose so.” lie repeated.
She leaned over and kissed him lightly
on the forehead and a few minutes later
slid softly from the room
For several minutes after she had de
parted, Tokoranto sat in the arm chair
as still as a dead man. His arms hung
limply over the sides and the hands al
most touched the floor. He seemed to
have no backbone His head hung back
and over his left shoulder, just as it had
dropped when the exhausted muscles re
laxed. Tie dozed: and was fast sinking
into the deep sleep of utter exhaustion
when he sat up with a start. He stared
about the room as if he had forgotten
something and could not reacall what it
was. Then his eyes fell on the desk. He
groaned, slowly worked himself to his
feet, and, supporting himself by the fur
niture on the way, moved across to hls
seat at hls work. But instead of tak
ing up his brush he folded his arms on
the manuscript and rested his hot fore
head upon them until he. was roused by
a .sound of footsteps on the stairs. He
looked up in time to greet Joshakawa.
After the formal salutations, Joshakawa
took a seat on the edge of the divan and
gravely studied the face of the young
man.
'How is the work progressing?” he
asked.
“As well as could be expected.” replied
Tokoramo. in a dull voice Joshakawa
frowned
“ft will be finished in time, my son?’4
Tokoramo nodded feebly.
"It will be finished by the first of the
month,” he replied
"And you? How do you feel? You look
very tired, my friend.”
"I suppose I am tired, my father." re
plied Tokoramo, with his hand across his
brows—a gesture that had become more
and more frequent with him in the past
few week?. "Still, I am cheered and
strengthened by the thought of the end
so near at hand.”
"That is right, Tokoramo!” 'exclaimed
Joshakawa. heartily. "The thought of
you should he enough to sustain any son
of Nippon. Few of us are blessed with
your ability and your opportunity.”
Tokoramo made no comment. He sa'
with his head In his hands and finally
Joshakawa spoke aagin.
"I would tell you to guard your health
if 1 coiild conscientiously do so.” he said,
gently. "I am not Dr. Omayi. but I can
see that the strain of this tremendous
effort is breaking you down Ye, my son,
e\en at that cost it is necessary that this
effort continue. The lives of all of us
are pledged to our country whether we
fall by the bayonet or the bullet, whether
ne go down on sinking ships under the
fire of the. enemy or kill ourselves with
work—it is all one and all for Nip
pon !”
"For Nippon!" echoed Tokoramo sol
emnly.
Again there was a little silence and
Joshakawa asked with some solicita
tion:
Only Tired —Tired.
"Do you feel ill. my son—other than the
weariness?"
"No." replied Tokoramo. shaking* his
head slightly, "It is only that I am tired
tired—tired!”
“I am very glad. " said the old man.
"Still, 1 think Dr. Omayi had better come
every day now until the work is finished.
Tt would he terrible to have you break
down completely at the last moment!”
Tokoramo made an Inarticulate sound
that was mean' to be reassuring, but
Joshakawa rose and paced up and down
the apartment, his brows contracted with
worry.
'I reproach myself, sometimes.” he said
gravely, "for interfering in the matter of
the women at the time that I did. It
would have been better, perhaps, for
your work had you lived in error until it
was completed. The harm was done,
in any case, but I could not forsee Hie
terrible result of opening your eyes And
knowing your cleanness of heart. 1 could
not bear to let you go on thinking as you
did about lhe woman.
Tokoramo hold out a hand if to te
strain him.
• You are unjust to yourself, my fa

you should have done Do not think that

"Yes. she has been here several

a sigh.
"It is too late for that!" declared the
old man. with a dark frown "There must
be no mistakes—no slips now. We must
be certain that the woman will not ap
pear for trial."
Tokoramo threw him a quick, keen
look.
"How. my father?" he asked in a low
voice.
"I do not know.” replied the other with
a frown, and Tokoramo saw that he
spoke the truth—saw it to his relief. "I
must consult with Yamoshi and Kobohashi
at once."
And before Tokoramo eould say another
word the old man had picked up his hat
and hastened out.

When Joshakawa reached the Wallen
pension he found that Yamoshi was out,
but Kobohashi was sitting up reading in
his room, and to him the old man unfolded
the new danger that threatened the suc
cess of their conspiracy. It was char
acteristic of him and methods that
he never considered the possibility of
any failure of their plan to keep Toko
ramo clear of the farthest connection with
the murder, other than that it occurred
at his house. He was in a hurry for
a conference simply to determine upon
the best way to keep Teri away from the
police. Tlje best way, only, was the con
sideration. No moral or financial obli
gation would be considered at all. Ih

Kobohashi listeped gravely while Josha

thought rapidly in silence for a few min
utes.
’’Could we not offer her a better en
gagement than she has here in Paris nr
New York, say?’’ he suggested.
Joshakawa shook his head impatiently.
“Too dhngerous," he objected. “Be
sides, there is scarcely time. And if she
attempted to leave Germanv openly at
this time she would certainly be turned
back at the frontier even if she could slip
away from the Berlin police."
“Surely, my father," agreed Koboha
