Copyrighted. 1909, by Associated Literary Press. Dorothy was a sportswoman from the tip of her dainty pumps to the top of her aristocratic head. Never had Owen Compton met n girl In whom so ninny delightful qualities were blend ed. That dashing creature known ns “the nthletlc girl" ho cordlnlly disliked, holding that young women were In tended primarily for cosy corners. So, when Introduced to Dorothy, he • <elt sure he would not like her a bit. Sfandsomo she undoubtedly was, and queenly, too. but with her queenllness Dordthy wns vivaciousness Itself. She could ride with the ikll^uf a cowboy . the wildest pony that trier leaped a fence. She could shoot like an ex-: pert and row like a university oars- j man. ' And after galloping gayly over the fields on one of her papa's most dan- ; gerous young horses she would come! into the drawing room and, with sym pathetic touch, piny n score of old tlmo melodies surcharged with senti ment. Before many moons Owen discover ed that with nil her athletic propensi ties Dorothy was as tender nntured hnd ns warm hearted as any girl who breathed the ozone. j The result was Inevitable. Therefore when Dorothy looked up from the piano, a coquettish light In her dark eyes, and asked, “Owen, when are you coming out to shoot partridges with me?" Owen replied that next morning would find him ready with cartridges and run. Ho appeared by runup, and Dorothy was awaiting him with her own favor- ' Ite setter and her own brightly pol- tgbed'llttle shotgun. In hunting boots. I short skirt and a brown Jacket, whose j large collar fell hack over her shoul ders, disclosing her round, white 1 .throat, she was a veritable vision of! the forest. “As I live, hut you do look stun ning!" was Owen's comment as he gave her a rapid survey. “Another Diana ready for tha hunt, but whether It be birds or hearts |t*a bard to say r \ Bhe laughed merrily. “The former, of course, sir!" she de clared. “At evening with moonlight netting, you know, Is the proper time for wounding hearts. This morning In the bright sunshine partridges are to he oar only consideration. Please remember this!" “Agreed," he said, bis eye flashing buck the challenge. “Let’s strike out Look, your dog la Just craxy to be off!" Then down the long slope they went and out Into the fields. The autumn sun wns a dull, golden disk that seemed to cast Its color over the leaves and the ruddy fruit. As they made their way through an orchard Oweu stopped and, throwing a stick up Into the boughs, brought down several fine apples With evident relish Dorothy set her j sharp teeth Into one of the lareeat -m rue postal of the menu* **• too uiucn ror uwen, and ne v«egan to quote something about the drowsy winds that fanned "a heart ripe si* tin apples grown In orchard lands of Ion' ago.” She stopped him with a disapprov ing glance. "Do you remember what we started out to do?” she asked. “Yes, to shoot birds, not to talk sen timent." She nodded, and they pushed out Into the open fields again. The setter, a hundred yards nhend, was already standing n covey of partridges. They hurried up close. “Ready?" he naked, raising his gun. “Ready,” she answered. "You take those on the left; I’ll look after those that fly up on the right.’’ Burr-burr-burr, and a dozen par tridges rose obliquely and sailed over the fields. Bang, bang, spoke Dorothy’s gun. Bang, bang, echoed his. Two birds dropped, one In line of Owen’s fire, the other over to the right “Honors are even!" cried Dorothy. “It's a lilt and a miss for each of us!” He sprang forward, aud ns the dog brought up the dead birds he dropped them Into the sack ho carried. Sudden ly a hundred feet In front of him a partridge that had become separated from the others ran out of the gross and fluttered off toward a clump of hushes ou the hillside. He lifted his gun to his shoulder and pulled both triggers, hut the bird con tinued in Us flight. Then behind him flashed Dorothy's gun, and the par tridge dropped like a spent rocket. At the same moment a sharp, sting ing pain ran through Owen's left hand. Instinctively he Jerked It up. It was covered with blood. Ilia face grew pale, for he thought that a good part of the leaden load had struck him. He raised hie arm, and the blood ran down In a tiny rivulet over his wrist. With his right hand lie reached for his hankerchlef to atop the crimson flow. He was conscious that the girl waa running up to him. “Good heavens!" she gasped, her face white as chalk as she saw the blood. "I've shot, you. Owen!” "I'm afraid you have,” he said, “but not seriously, I guess.” In a second her hand had hold of the handkerchief, and she was wiping away the blood. “Oh. It’s not very serious!" sho breathed Joyfully. "Look, It's only a IWSWWMSSWWMSSWSWWSIW Keeping Groll Off the Grass. By BENRY BERUNGOFF.

Stub Rellcy was willing to admit that tha “old man" was a more Im portant figure In the office than George Fielding, but the rock Itself could not wring from him an admission that any one else loomed ns large, least of all Dougina Groll, the Junior pnrtncr. Oroll had Incurred Stub's enmity the first day the boy hnd come Into the of fice, and since then he bad done noth tng to cause a reversal of Stub's opin ion. Fielding was a wholesome sort of chap whose very capacity for maklug friends had won for him n place of authority In the office of Sommers A Groll. Every one liked him. The loyal Stub worshiped him and would have gone to the end &I the earth at hts order. Stub had even raised from the dead his mythical grandmother to bury her nt n more auspicious moment because Fielding had hinted that there wns a lot of work to be done oven If the “Champs” were playing a double head er nt the ball grounds. Greater trib ute than this no small hoy can pay. Naturally when Gertrude Vance was looked upon with especial favor by Ftoldlng she became the chief goddess In the office. Mr. Sommers* sonorous call of “Fnt- rtek!" sometimes wont unanswered, bnt the boy fairly jnmped to Miss Vance’s desk at the softest call of “Stub!" and would sharpen her pencil or tirtug her a fresh sot of carbons before he answered the Increasingly Impatient call of the bend of the firm. And because Fielding cared for Ger trude It angered Stub to notice the fa miliarity with which the junior part ner treated the little typewriter. Ger trude could not very well resent these trifling Inpertlncnccs without losing her place, and she could uot afford to do that when she and Fleldtng were saving up every penny against the time they should find some ttny subur ban home suited to their modest In come. They wen working band In hand toward that end, and she coukl only pretend not to notice the band that rested caressingly on her shoulder whenever Groll stopped at her desk to give an order or ask a question. Stub Instinctively sensed her embar rassment, and he gritted his teeth tiu- potently whenever be saw Groll mov- lug toward the typewriter's corner, vowing with boyish Intensity that he would get even. He watched Groll with a quiet ntten tlon that permitted no move to escape, and that resourceful business man would have been surprised bad be reallxod bow much Stub knew ubont his personal affairs. Stub was ever alert to get hold cf some bit of Information that he could use as n club, but Groll grew more and wore daring In his attention with the knowledge that the girl feared to speak to Fielding. Groll 11!ways was particular:* at- tc.nstve when Fielding was si **-- MUX. Tbs arm baa tiro hranenes up town, and lid? morning the receipts from these branches wen brought down by tha trusted clerks and turned over to the cashier, who accepted the credit slips without question and passed the sealed package on to the bank with hla own deposit by Fielding. The packages of Mils wen made Into brick shaped forms and sealed at Hi ther end. The messengers were trust ed employees, and there never had been the slightest Inaccuracy. Stub loved to watch the arrival of the packages. It was his ambition to be a messenger himself some day and carry a revolver under license from the police. The bulge In the messengers’ coat pockets filled him with envy, and he was saving hto tips with the Idea of purchasing a revolver of hla own ugainst that happy day when he shonld be Intrusted with one of the leather satchels chained to the messengers' wrists. Then came a day when Groll went into the senior partner’s office, and soon be and Bommera went to the cashier’s cage. Here the two, nfter a brief consultation with the latter, went toward Fielding's desk. "1 tell yon that I saw him make the exchange." Groll was saying as they moved toward the closed desk. “I was In tho cage for n moment and saw him bending over his desk." “Did Mr. Fielding go to his desk after 1h* loft the oage?” asked Som mers of the cashier, and the latter nod ded an unwilling assent. “He bad a bottle of medicine that be wanted to pnt there. He had a bad cold." The cashier carried the bnneb of keys that were dnpllcatea of all the keys In the office, and they soon found the one that fitted Fielding’s desk. As the roll top was raised to release the cstch tbst held the drawers locked 8tub could not refrain from drawing near. The trio did not notice bis ap proach, so Interested were they In the Investigation. With an exclamation that sounded very like « groan Bommera drew from the bottom drawer a package that was unmistakably tho deposit from the North Bide branch, and with trembling hand he reached for the sharp envel ope opener that lay upon tho blotter. *Tve had my suspicions for some time," announced Groll Jubilantly. “I happen to know that Fielding la plan ning to marry Miss Vance, and be has been speculating with what they call their building fund’ for aoma time, lie planned this move to get back his losses and at the same time gain enough to buy a borne. I have been watching him carefully, and today my suspicions were aroused. “The money Is not counted here la the office, and he planned to place the blame on tho cashier or the nuawsnger and go scot freo." Stub grinned at the jubilation of Groll'a voice and stood on tiptoe the better to observe the proceedings. Sommers had slit the wrapper that the seals might be preserved Intact for fu ture reference, and all threo men gave an exclamation of surprise when. In stead of the bapk notes, Sommers drew oat sheets of crisp bond paper cat to greenback slse. "Perhaps his nerve failed him," sug gested Groll, who was tho first to break the alienee. “Nerr* nothin'," Interrupted Stub. “I was wise to yonr game. I had the switchboard when tho girl wns out to lunch, and I waa rubberin' on the wire when yon told Mr. Beekman to fix the package today like the one he gnve you. You was trying to get Mr. Field ing out of the office so you could break off the engagement, and maybe Miss Vance would go to lunch when you naked her. “Piggy Moran up to the branch goes to th’ same cholch I go to. I got hlui th' Job, nu' he fonnd out that there was a lot of cut paper In Mr. Beck man's wastebasket last night. 1 see you bring in the package this morning, an’ I see you and Mr. Beekman In Brown’s .last night when he giro It to you. “I waa wise. I swapped packages on you, an* It ain’t your fault that Mr. Fleldtng ain’t cornin’ back from tho bank tcllln' that tbe North Side pack age was a fake. You didn't see me switch didn't even know I was In th* cage, but I waa, thcro all right, and that's bow It Is that you got back the same package you thought you wns glvlu' Mr. Fielding. I'm there, too, when it comes to handin’ lemons and quinces." “Telephone Mr. Beekman and your friend Morau to come down here nt once," commanded Sommers. “Groll. you know best whether or not to make arrangements to sell out your Interest In tbe business." "You needn't send for Beekman,” said Groll sullenly as he laid a heavy and detaining hand upon Stub's shoul der. “You can let Vanncrson buy me out if yqq want to. This devilish kid la too smart for hts own good. If you let a word out about this I’ll kill you.” he added ns his nervous fingers tight ened their grip on Stub’s shoulder un til the boy winced with pain. "Forglt It,” admonished Stub. “I put a ‘keep off the grass' sign on Miss Vance, on* that’s all I was after. I guess that goes." At a sign from Sommers, Groll re leased the boy and followed his part ner Into the privato office to arrange the details of the sale of his interest. None of the others bad noticed the little group, and as Stub hitched off to his desk be looked at the trim figure of Gertrude Vance seated at her ma chine. "I wtsht I was big enough to marry her meself," he mused, “but It's the next best thing to see her marry Mr. Fielding. Anyhow, 1 Jest had to keep 'Mr. Groll offen tha grass. He’s too fresh—that guy."
