The young detective shrugged his
shoulders. 1.-The jobs done, he found

"Ah! Where is it?"
81 gave it to M. Gibelin."
Coquenil could scarcely believe his
ears.
"You gave the auger to Gibelin?
Why?"
Because he told me o."
"You must be crazyl Gibelin had
nothing to do with this. You take
your orders from me-"

Gibelin says l take orders from him."
"We'n see about this" muttered Nj
Paul, and crossing the little Bridge, h"
entered tho courtyard OF the Paiais de
Justice and hurried up to the office of
Judge Hauteville. ON the stairs he met
Gibelin, fat and perspiring.
"See here" he said abruptly, what
nave you done with that auger?'
Put it in the department of old
iron,' rasped the other. w can't

Coquenil glared at him. we cant

Precisely" retorted Gibelin, his red
musiache bristling.
"And you've been giving orders to
young Bobet?"
Eyes, sir"
"By what authority %
go in there and you'll find out"
sneered the fat man. jerking q derisive
thumb toward Hauteville's door.
A moment later NJ. Paul entered the
judges private room, and the latter.
rising from his desk. came forward
with a look OF genuine friendliness and
concern.

The judge nodded gravely. Worse
than that, they have taken you off
the force. Your commission is can
celed."
"But-but why?' stammered the
other.
For influencing Dedet to break q
rule about n prisoner au secret; as a
matter of fact, you were foolish to
write that letter."

Technically you were at fault, and
I'm afraid you will have to suffer
NJ. Paul thought a moment.
Did you make the complaint against
me?"
NO. no.. Between ourselves,
should have passed the thing over as
unimportant. but-well, the order came
from higher up

1t appeared that he did not. Indeed,
NJ. Paul himself remembered the young
mans quick, springy step when he left
the cab that fatal night to- enter
Bonneton's' house So now he proposed
to make Lloyd walk back and forth
several times in a pair of his own
DO is over soft earth in the prison
yard and then show that impressions
of these new footprints were different
in the pressure marks, and probably
in the length of stride, from those left
in the alleyway. This would be
further indication, along with the Diff
ferences already noted in the nails,
that the alleyway footprints were not
made. by Kittredge.
Not made by kittredge, reflected
the. detective, but by o man wearing
Kittredge's boots, a man wearing the
missing third pair, the stolen pair! All,
there was a nut to crack! This man
must have stolen the boots; as he had
doubtless stolen the pistol, to throw
suspicion on an innocent person. No
other conclusion was possible; yet he
had not returned the boots to Kit
tredge's room after the crime. Why
not? 1t was essential to his. purpose
that they be found in Kittredge's
room. he must have intended to return
them, something quite unforeseen
must have prevented him from doing
so. What had prevented the assassin
from returning Kittredge's boots?
AS soon as Coquenil reached the
prison he was shown into the directors
private room, and he noticed that M.
iDedet received him with a strange
mixture Of surliness and suspicion.
"What's the trouble?' asked the de-
tective.

then he burst out: what the devil
did you mean by sending that girl to,
me?"
.sWhat did L mean?" repeated
cosouenil, puzzled by the ~Jailer's hos
tility. Didn't she tell you what she
wanted?"
tDedet made no reply, but unlocking
q drawer he searched among some en-
yelopes, and producing a square of
faded blotting paper he opened it be-
fore his visitor.
''There!" he! said, and with a heavy
finger he pointed to a scrawl of words.
There what she wrote, and you
know damned we'll you put her up to
it,
Coquenil studied the words with in
creasing perplexity. II have no idea
what this means" he declared.

NJ. Paul sprang to. his feet. "Take
that. back. he ordered with a look Of
menace. and the rough nan grumbled
an apology. Just the same" he NUT
tered, "it's mighty queer how she knew
it unless you told her"

The jailer eyed Coquenil searchin2ly

come to write that?" He scratched his

Coquenil took off his glasses and

drove directly to the Palais de Justice;

vaguely anxious. What did this mean

r F you want to get rid of a friend give him some advice
tart advice. Observe his faults and tell him of
. them, and conclude by saying that your lecture is
"for his own good"
There are ten chances to one that youn never have
a second opportunity.
When people ask for advice it is because they either
want sympathy or an opportunity to tell you their opin-
ion of the matter in question. If you disagree they're
quite r~esentful. Agree, and they'll give you credit for
much wisdom.
For instance: Two women entered a millinery par
lor the other day, one to buy and one to assist her in
the awful process of making up her mind.
- They wandered about until the one who wanted to
buy found a violet turban that came well down over her
forehead. 5ad
