interests as for him to desert them
for a honeymoon. Wedding trips and
business are unmixable. II you would
not have the one disiilusioned and the

Love can wait its hour, but when for
tune knocks upon the door we must

became very low.
Nothing in particular was only
about to say that IL in a year from
now you have not changed your mind
and your business affairs are so
grounded that you can leave them in
safety for q period, it might then be
proper for you to ask the fortunate
lady" ..
But year seems lifetime to one
who loves her as I do. And she might
become tired of waiting" I eApostu-

Then would not imagine that she

that she would be particularly desir
able person to choose as a life com
panion. This Is, Of course, supposing
that she understood the reason for the
delay. This is my sisterly advice tc
you, having no idea, Of course, who
the charmer may be whom you have
in mind The wisdom of her advice
seemed unanswerable and l remained
| mute before 1t. My hand falling upon

ably correct. He seemed to be think
ing intently for a while after that and
l did not disturb him, but presently
he turned to me.
TN getting at the roots of case
like this, one way of simplifying it is
by the process of elimination-that is
to say, by the wedding out of those
persons and circumstances which al
though Immediately surrounding the
affair could not in the nature Of
things be connected with it. By do.
ing this you are often able to narrow
the field of your search and thereby
secure greater concentration. I be-
lieye that you can help me consider
ably in this matter II you will frankly
answer all questions | may ask you,
feeling perfectly free to volunteer any
thing that may occur to you as you
proceed. First OF all, was your uncle
in the habit of keeping large sums of
money in the safe?" shook my head.
EFT very seldom happened. Perhaps
once or twice year only, and then
merely because the cash was received

ness to charge me $4,000 for a days
work." LeDuc's lips frightened into a
thin smile.
II certainly should. am very inn
pudent in some respects, and I should
charge you the full price even though
the transaction took me only ten min
utes. have tried to emphasize that
point as one Of the reasons why I
will do harder, bnger and more in
telligent work than will the police
man who only gets his S. day. But
on the other hand, and to balance
the scales between us, of course the
more / get the more you get. take
it for granted that you would rather
get 5000 back than nothing at all.
Also you must remember that there IS
the contingency that I may fail COM
pletely, and in that event l will be
out my time. labor and expenses.
Then again, may recover but small
portion of what has been stolen, and
in that case MY tees will be insignif-
cant and my time practically wasted.
