had only returned half an hour before

The old man had just finished his
lunch. and certainly his empty dish
bore evidence to the good appetite with
which his housekeeper had credited
him. He was indeed weird figure
as he turned his white name and his
glowing eyes toward us. The eternal
had been dressed and was seated in
an armchair by the fire.
''Well, Mr.. Holmes, have you solved
this mystery yet?" He showed the large
tin of cigarettes which stood on table
beside him toward my companion.
Holmes stretched out his hand at the
same moment, and between them they
tipped the box over the edge. For u
minute or two we were all Oh our
knees retrieving stray cigarettes from
impossible places. When we rose again
observed Holmes eyes We're shining
and his cheeks tinged with color. Only

II never said so. You We're aware Of

Again the professor burst into high
keyed laughter. He had risen to his
feet, and his eyes glowed like embers.
You are mad." he cried. You are
talking insanely. l helped her to es-

''She is there" said Holmes, and he

addition, long and obstinate chin.
What with her natural blindness, and
what with the change from dark to
