For several minutes The Thinking Machine sat

Dexter gazed into the inscrutabe face anxiously.

The Thinking Machine did not say. What sort
of voice has Nine du Chastaigny?' he asked.
Professor Dexter blinked little in bewilderment.
An ordinary, voice, the low voice of a woman of
education and refinement" he replied.
Did she raise it at any time while talking?"
Perhaps she sneezed or coughed while talking

there was flash of comprehension in his blue eyes

Well she laughed think"
The Thinking Machine turned full upon him, and
those Sits which served for eyes screwed
down to pin points. What was the occasion of her
laughter"
Il stumbled over suit case she had set down
by the laboratory door there
The Thinking Machine absorbed that without
evidence of emotion then reached for the letter of
introduction which Nine. du Chastaigny had given
to Professor Dexter, which he still carried
crumpled up in his hand. 1t short note, just
few lines in French, explaining that Nine. du
Chastaigny desired to see Professor Dexter

cursory examination. "Of course, you had some
correspondence with her about this work?

that YOU can do something either in purchasing or

Could you fix definite price for the quantity

glanced around the room
again.
Professor Dexter shook
his head. He had re-
covered his self-posses-
sion somewhat, but be
wilderment left him help
less.
Are you sure, Pro-
lessor Dexter, asked The
Thinking Machine at last
coldly-"are yousure you
placed the radium ex-
actly where you have in
dicated?"
There was almost an
accusation in the tone,
and Professor Dexter
flushed hotly. Il am
positive, yes" he replied.
" And you are abso-
lute1y certain that neither
Bowen nor Nine. du
Chastaigny entered this

The Thinking Machine
wandered up and down
the long table apparently
without interest, handling
the familiar instruments
and glittering appliances
as a master.
Did Nine. du Chas-

at last irrelevantly.

She crossed the room,
picked up the suit case,
and again she smiled,
evidently at the recollec-
ton of Professor Dexter's
awkward stumble. Then
with her burden she
turned to go.
Permit me, madam
suggested Professor DeX-
ter quickly as he reached
for the bag.
Oh, no, it is quite
light" she responded
easily.
There were a few COM
monplaces, and then she
went out.
Gazing through the
window after her, Pro-
lessor Dexter noted, with
admiration in his eyes,
the graceful, strong lines
of her figure, and saw
her enter a carriage and
drive away. He stood
deeply thoughtful for a
minute considering the
possibilities arising from
her casual announcement
of the existence of this
unknown radium.
If l only had that,

turned and reentered his
