“Do you mind if I use the phone?”
Stew asked.
Anne was all smiles. “Not a*
all. Right over here.”
The reporter picked up the phone
and gave the story to his paper,
much to the dismay of the Scbuy-
lers.
“I’ve met some rotters in my time,
but you’re, without doubt, the low-
est excuse for a man I’ve ever had
the—”
Stewart still carrying the copy
of Conrad turned on his way to the
door and interrupted her.
“If that’s the way you feel about
it, here’s a nickel for the phone
call.” He tossed a nickel o« the
For a moment Anno stared at him
incredulously. "Where did you got
those letters?” she Inquired.
"I stole them from Babykins
while I was interviewing her about
Bobo.”
“I suppose you’re going to print
them?”
“No.”
“Will five thousand be enough?”
Anne asked.
“For what?” Stew asked.
“For Michael’s letters.”
The lad moved closer to Anne.
"You mustn’t go around thinking
you can buy people, Miss Schuyler.
The letters are yours without cost.”
“You mean you’re giving them to
me?”
“Certainly.”
“I don’t understand you.” She
looked puzzled. “You’re a peculiar
person. The other day I pleaded
with you not to send that story in

walked out.
A lew days later, Stewart again
rang the Schuyler doorbell. He had
come to return the book.
“Mrs. Schuyler is not at home,”
the butler coldly informed the lad.
“I know it,” he replied. “I
waited outside until I saw her leave.
An estimable woman, but we don’t
vibrate well together.”
Just then Anne passed through
the hall. She saw Stew and went
over to him.
“What do you want?” she in-
quired.
“When I was here the other day
I borrowed one of your books. I
came to return it.”
Anne waB haughty. “That was
considerate of you.”
“Swell book.” He extended the
copy toward her, but seeing that she
made no effort to take it, Stew
threw the book on the table. “I rec-
ommend you read it,” he continued.
Anne wae stiff in her reply. “I’m
not interested in your literary rec-
ommendations.”
“No? Maybe it’s a bit too heavy
for you. But listen to this letter.

“The story was news. That’s my
job. These letters are blackmail
and I don’t approve of blackmail.”
Having won the girl’s gratitude,
Stew lingered on and when Mrs.
Schuyler returned home she wae
horrified to find the reporter person
eating lunch with Anne in the fam-
ily dining-room. He had told the
girl of his ambition to write a play
and clowned a bit for Anne’s amuse-
ment In fact, the girl was rapidly
falling for the lad. Just how far the
romance would have developed at
that time will never be known, for
Mrs. Schuyler insisted that the re-
porter leave, and Stew went.
During the weeks that followed
Stew broke into society. He culti-
vated Anne Schuyler and she felt
that it was an interesting experi-
ment to take Stew around and in-
troduce him to her friends. Of
course her mother and Grayson did
not approve; but Anne had a will of
her own and won out. Stew con-
fided hie progress to Gallagher, who
proved a good sport although her
heart was breaking.
Then like a bolt from the blue, the
editor of the Post received a call
from the Tribune that the latter
paper had a great scoop on the for-

lieve him; but when he turned to
