Miss Aileen sat behind the desk as

was advised to wait until his tabby

There was no fee in the case. and
yet the lawyer took It up with the
greatest energy lie called next day
to leave name and address. lie called
the day after to announce that his
Persian cat was still with him. The
day after that 1t was TO say that he

was hunted for In vain. The next call
was a very important one. MIR. Win

Miss Castle aware of the fact? Was
she prepared to risk her life to re-

And then Mr.. Winwocd took to

ever about cats, but talking of the
theater and hooks and Paris and Lon

cats. but they could wait. And some
how or other he got to calling at the
house. and by and by the day came
when Miss Aileen had to say to her
father:
