frankly said so. A woman's place was to

But I've been doing it for nearly six

She brought out handbook and showed
me nearly one hundred dollars which she had
put away from trimming hats for the women
of the neighborhoOd. 1t was more than
enough to pay three months rent for the

she had made up her mind to rent. If |

My hopes were dashed by the reply. The
place they had offered me was satisfactorily
filled, and they had nothing else to offer.
The writer, who was family friend, advised
me to stay in New York, as business con-
ditions there were very bad.

practically unconscious. His friends in the
United States, unable to reach him, not
knowing the name he had assumed, grew un-
easy about him, and so you were asked to
find him. His daughter, meanwhile, was un-
easy, and she came to find him. l came to
find him in the course of my duty"
M. Baudet nursed his perfumed whiskers
for minute or so in silence. This American
detective, who spoke not word of French,
who had worked alone, had discovered the
man whom half a dozen of his own detec-
tives, speaking four and five languages EACH
had not been able to find 1t was reflection
upon the boosted efficiency of his system.
He looked quite sad about it.
II tell you what IL do, Cap" Mr.. Smith
volunteered magnanimously. Suppose you
cable to the people who asked you to find
him and say that you have found him. I've
made no report as yet so you'll get first
crack at it. don't mind because, as l say,
it was all in the days work. 1t might mean
something to you"
M. Baudet rose and shook Mr.. Smiths
hand. The honor of his beloved France was
saved through the generosity of this SO big
American!
ONE of M. Baudet's satellites entered with
~ card. M. Baudet nodded, and the
satellite vanished through the door. Imme-
diately M. lie Marquis d'Aubigny entered.
He stopped short at the sight of Mr.. Smith
and stood for an instant gazing at the two
men in turn Then his evil eyes lighted up
triumphantly.
This meeting is most propitious," he said
to M. Baudet. Il just came to ask that
this man Smith be taken into custody on
charge of theft"
Theft" exclaimed M. Baudet "Why
NJ. lie Marquis, there must be some mistake!
NJ. Smith is detective"
M Smith is an impostor,' the Marquis
declared holly. Says he is detective, Ell?
Ask him to show you his credentials, his
badge. On behalf of M. w. Vaudeville
Clarke, accuse him of the theft of seven
million five hundred thousand francs in
United States bonds from an apartment in
the Rue St. Honore, and demand his ar
rest!"
Mute, motionless, Mr. Smith stood, as
the structure he had painfully erected to
save himself, and incidentally Clarke, from
ruin and prison cell came gathering down
about his ears. This was the end, an airing
of the whole malodorous thing in the press
and in court, discovery by the bank officials
in Passaic of the huge theft, and the inevita-
BILE collapse of the bank in consequence.
This and more, it meant.

night"
Eyes, understand" Mr. Smith nodded
1.-The other day, when we discovered that
you are who you are, we allowed you to go,
Monsieur, and said nothing about the girl
who also has been seeking Nj. Clarke. If
YOU were not NJ. Clarke, then NJ. Clarke re-
clues. We lost track of her for awhile; but
last night, quite accidentally, NJ. Remi saw
her and followed her in a taxicab."
Mr.. Smith began to look surprised.
M. Remi, of course, was not aware that
you. by some ruse, had inveigled the girl into
coming to meet you. We do not blame you,
Monsieur; we admire the skill with which
you brought about this, so difficult thing;
but we were not aware of your connection
with it. Understand, NJ Remi was follow
ing the girl. When you got into the cab he
assumed it was M. Clarke, and jumped upon
the running board. Then, Monsieur, you

that M. Remit"
$50 it was, Monsieur. He gave chase in
another cab, as you know; but when he
caught it, it was empty. 1t was clever,
Monsieur, very clever; but from M. RENTS
viewpoint it was also painful. Neither M.
Remi nor myself desires to be unpleasant
ABOUT the incident, recognizing IN you, as we
do, a master of the craft; but, in all the cir
cumstances, we agreed that it might be adj
visable to warn you against employing such
-er-such forcible tactics We trust you
will understand our position?"
Il think I'm hep, Cap. I'm sorry hit
him. You see, I'd framed this thing up, and
when the girl came she told me she was being
followed. l didn't know who was following
her; but l couldn't afford to take any risk
of having my plans knocked skywestern
crooked, so when a man came sticking his
nose in the cab hit it,
NJ. Baudet considered the matter in detail
and smiled. Your explanation is quite
satisfactory, NJ. Smith However, in your
future work in France it might be we'll to re-
member that striking man with your fist is
a criminal offense. You may kick man, or
slap him, / mean if violence is absolutely
necessary; but you must not hit him."
There was pause. And now, NJ. Clarke.
You say you have found him. Where?"
HE is living in little apartment in the
II Rue St. Honore," Mr. Smith told him
frankly, and he gave the street number,
under the name of Charles Roeblng. The
girl in the cab with me was his daughter
Edna. Mr.. Clarke came to Paris on a mat
ter of personal business, and it was not adj
visable that his real identity should be
known until this business was disposed of.
Immediately after his arrival he was stricken
with typhoid fever and lay for several weeks
