Several days, with luck, and he might toe home. For good. He kissed Ruth and his mother and shook hands with Rin ty, who moauecl disconsolately and strained against tho leash Ruth held, with the assistance of Mrs. Ford. "I want to have a talk with you Boon as I get 'back," said Jimmy gravely to Ruth as ho loft her, "and find out what the big Idea is about this fellow ami what's between you." "Oh, Jimmy, you silly boy!" Ruth'-s eyes were wide and startled.

But her happiness at having him back more than offset any irritation aroused by his characteristically masculine stupidity about such matters. "There isn't a thing. He's just a of my father's. You know I IOVQ you." She clung to him a minute longer on account of that.

"Good'by, pop," said Jimmy, proudly noting that Ihe Captain of Company was eyeing the big, erect Police Lieutenant with apecttul deference and coming up to shake hands with him.

"Gdodby, son," said Ford, earnestly before turning to Captain. "I've arranged things tot you to take the first civil examination for the Force that comes along. Your mother will be proud, Ruth will be I'll be proud." The father's steely eyes softened for a moment into wistfuilness, and he llngeredvover a final handclasp and admonition: "Goodby, Jimmy. I've been so glad to seie you again. Hurry home, boy, as soon as'you can.

Mother aud Ruthie will be waiting for you." One week later, when Jimmy got home at last to the little flat on Twenty-first Street, it was to keep aobbing, heart-wrenched vigil In the parlor beside tho body of his father, who had been shot down in a night gunflght with persons unknown. The Hudson Busters were suspected, though forty-eight hours of police department netting and rounding up had not cracked through the mystery. Next day, as Keenan, the clostd the coffin and shut the features of Police Lieutenant Ford, forever from the gaze of hia loved ones, Young Jimmy Ford wailed a loud vow to get oven with the Hudson Busters if it took him the whole of his life.

CHAPTER 3 Rin-Tin-Tin, awakened by an animal instinct and a high, and loyal senso of duty that combined to form a signal much more compelling any artificial such as an alarm clock, rose at six o'clock sharp of a clear morning from the cool, clean fibre mat that served him for a bed Jn the tidy kitchen of tho Ford flat on West Twenty-first Street, New York City.

glnger'y stepped off his mat. Next ho indulged in what is the counterpart in every well- bred and self-respecbing dog's life of a physically prideful human's morning shower 'bath; he shook himself efficiently and thoroughly. Starting at the tip of his tail, the bis hips, snaked tortuously along his (backbone, wriggled up the back of his neck and caused the hair to spring erect therooh, arid Snapped his head at the finish with a flourish that sent tho last of the sleep flyiiig from bis eyes. Completely now, he gruuted a.nd began tho final stage of bis rising and setting-up ceremony and prodigious stretch of his magnificent adult body from toe to toe of Its giant, shaggy, steel-limbed beauty.
