‘ This can be done only by making ab
solutely sure that th*e woman will be out
of reach of the police until Tokoramo
has finished his work," concluded .fc»sha
kawa.
"Can she be induced to leave the coun
try*" suggested Monntario.
Joshakawa frowned at him and stirred
impatiently in his chair.
"My son," hp said bitingly. ‘“Kobohashi
and I did not call you into this matter so
that you might make suggestions which
we have already considered and aban
doned as impracticable. You are a very
astute and trustworthy young man, and
when you have sufficient years you will
make as good a general as you are now a
private."
The young man bowed nis head and
took the rebuke with a muttered apology
"What is to be the plan, my father?"
he ventured after a short pause. Josh
akawa s brows came together again.
"We have not yet fully decided," he
replied. "We are going to call on the
young lady this morning in the hope that
something in the conversation may sug
gest a plan."
"1 understand," said Mnnotario. Am
I to go with you?"
"Yes." replied the old man. "you will
have an opportunity to make an estimate
of the young woman and know how to
deal with her —as you will be the agent
in whatever plan we fix upon.”
After a little further discussion, which
was unimportant as to results, the ‘three
w ent out into the bright summer morn
ing and walked in the direction of Teri’s
apartments. It was a day to gladden the
heart and quicken the pulse. The sun
blazed down from a sky of flashing blue
steel and touched he leaves of the sway
ing trees with sparks of silver Are. About
them a thousand birds lifted up their
songs in praise of the glorious concord
of heaven and earth; but all this was un
noticed by the three who walked in si
lence, their minds filled with lhe dark
business that had brought them forth.
They did not exchange a word until
they had reached the door of Teri's home
and then Joshakawa told the others to
permit him to open the conversation and
follow his lead.
In Teri's Home.
The young woman received them in a
pretty little sunlit room. She wore a de
cidedly informal morning gown and
looked very fresh ami pretty. Josha
kawa introduced himself and then the
others, explaining that they were close
friends of Tokoramo.
‘ Then you are twice welcome." said the
girl with a bright smile, ami held out her
hand? to them again. "Please make
yourselves comfortable. May 1 offer you
some coffee or tea?" she added, with an
other smile
The younger men murmured polite re
fusals
"We have just finished breakfast," said
Joshakawa, as he took a seat. The others
disposed of themselves in the same way,
sitting in ih*ir rigid, uncomfortable fash
ion nn the edge of the chairs.
Teri waited politely for the visitors to
open the subject of their ••all and Josha
kawa regarded her with a fatherly smile.
"You are no doubt wondering why we
should have intruded." he said, in the
wdnning voice of a kindly old man.
Teri flushed slightly in emharrassmen’
and murmured that friends of Tokoramo
wore always welcome at her house.
"It is about him that wp have called."
said the spokesman; and if Kobohashi fol:
that this was getting rapidly onto danger
ous ground ho made no sign.
"Only last evening Tokoramo was talk
ing to me about you.' purred the old vil
lain "He. told us of your kindness ami
many attentions to him in this time of ,

these other friends of Tokoramo's so that
wp might thank you in person."
The girl flushed again a ml* looked about
the room.
"Why, I have done nothing to speak
of." she said.
"It is what I would have expected you
to say!" declared Joshakawa. heartily.
"But we, who are his closest friends,
think otherwise. He is like a son to me,
and like a brother to the others, and he
is engaged in work that is of the high
est importance to himself and his peo
ple. My dear young lady, it would be
impossible for us to exaggerate the grati
tude we feel toward you for your inter
est in our friend s health!”
"Oh!" exclaimed Teri. "I haven’t done
anything for him. He won’t let me. I
should think that you who have known
him so much longer woulf| be able to
make him take care of himself. I am so
worried about him!" And the girl s eyes
grew big and serious.
"You are worried about him?" repeat
ed Joshakawa. politely questioning.
"Why do you think there is any thing se
rious the matter with him?"
The girl hesitated, started to speak,
stopped and at last she said with some
restraint:
“Well, I suppose it is no secret to you
that he was in love with my friend —
lllona Kerner, who " she flashed slight
ly and broke off.
Joshakawa nodded encouragingly ami
came to her aid.
"Do not be afraid of embarrasing us."
he said, in grave, gentle tones, "the girl
was murdered by one of our countrymen
and it is a shame to our country but we
cannot help it. and we face the fact with
as much philosophy as possible and with
some sympathy for t-he unfortunate boy.”
"It must be a painful subject fnr you,
fraulein." added Koboshi; "but for that I
would take the liberty of adding that not
the least part of our grief is the thought
of your suffering over the loss of your
friend."
Teri’s lips trembled and her eyes filled.
"lllona was the best friend I ever had,’
she said, in a low voice. Then she went
on steadily. "But she is gone now. and
she loved Tokoramo. The best that I can
do for her memory is to help the man she
loved all I can."
Joshakawa murmured that he under
stood. and the girl, gaining confidence,
began to talk warmly about Tokoramo's
health.
"Jllona is dead and that can't be helped

now." she said, "but you men who are
such warm friends* of Tokoramo's will
have him dying soon if you don’t stop
him!"
Joshawaka sat up with a very good im
itation of a look of concern.
"Dying!" he ejaculated.
Teri's Warning.
"That is what 1 said," declared the
girl, the nurse in her up in arms. "The
man is killing himself with worry and
work just as fast as he can."
"My dear young lady!" exclaimed Josh
akawa "I think you must certainly be
mistaken. One of our goo<l friends- Dr.
Omayi -seldom fails to call on Tokoramo
at least once a day. and he says that
he is very tired and will need a long
rest when he has finished his work. Rut
he insists there is no cause for alarm."
"I am not a doctor," replied Teri, set
ting her lips tightly together. "Rut I
have as much common sense.as most peo
ple. It doesn't make any' difference what
the doctor says is the matter with him*
Whatever it is—whatever you choose to
call It—-it Is killing him. I know that
much and I should think that any one
could see It."
The old man locked more concerned
than ever and was apparently giving her
words the greatest consideration, when
she spbke again:
"What is tljia work that he is doing'.’
Is it so important that he has to sacri

Joshakawa raised his hand as if to re

that it must be completed that his ex
cellency, the prime minister, expects it
by the first of the month."
"Well, ’ said Teri, somewhat tartly , "his
excellency, the prime minister, will not
get it. That is my opinion."
“What do you mean?" eA-laimed Josh
akawa.
"1 mean that 1 think that Tokoramo
will break down within a few days if he
hasn't broken down in the night. Cnn’t
you men help him, or make him rest for
a few days?"
The eld man shook his head. "We
would gladly do any thing in our power,
fraulein." he said, "but. unfortunately,
both of these -things that you suggest
are beyond our power."
"Why?" insisted the girl.
"It is -.cry simple," replied Joshakawa,
with a slight shrug of his shoulders. '“'His
work is something that we knMv noth
ing about. We. al! of us, who knovy him,
have offered to help, but he has refused
all of us. As to his resting he is in
the service of his country, and he would
rather die at his desk than give up until
his work is completed. Dr. omayi has
begged him to take cefre of himself, but
he will listen to none of us."
A little silence followed this explana
tion. The toe of Teri's shoe tapped the
floor.
"At least you could persuade him to
leave that house."-she suggested.
"Leave that house? .Why?” aske«f

“Because the atmosphere'.there is as

heat. "He is working there. <iay and
