windows. over the windows the
shades were drawn, so that he would
remain invisible to anyone within
the office, while yet easily able to
overhear every word spoken in the
room.
."I'll Do the Talking"
When he had completed his in
.structions to the stenographer, Burke
turned to Glider and Demarest.
Now, this time" he said, energeti-
cally I'll be the one to do the talk
ing. Don't you be surprised. Re
member, we're dealing with crooks,
and when you're dealing with crooks
you have to use crooked ways
There was a brief period of silence.
Then the door opened and Mary Tur-
ner entered the office She walked
slowly forward, moving with the
smooth strength and grace that were
proof of perfect health and of perfect
poise, the correlation of mind and
body in eXactness. Her FORM clearly
revealed by the clinging evening
dress, was a curving group OF graces.
The beauty of her face was enhanced,
rather than lessened, by the pallor of
it, for the fading of the richer colors
gave to the fine features an express
sion more spiritual, made palmer the
underlying qualities that her aCcuS-
toned to bril,iance might half con-
ceal. She paid absolutely no atten-
ton to the other two in the room but
went straight to the desk and there
halted, gazing with her softly pene-
trant eyes of deepest violet into the
face of the Inspector
Under that intent scrutiny, Burke
felt a challenge. set himself to match
craft with craft. He was not likely
to undervalue the wits of one who
had so often fiouted him, who. even
now, had placed him in a preposter-
Gus predieament by this ENHANCEMENT
over the death of a spy. But he was
resolved to use his best skill to dis
arm her sophistcation His large
voice was modulated in kindness as
he spoke in a casual manner.

Mary regarded the speaker with an
impenetrable' expression. Her tones
as she spoke were quite as matter
of-fact as his own had been. In them
was no wonder, no eXultation.

Advice to the Lovelorn

told me an idea he had, and asked
me to give him a true answer. He
said it would be best if we should

then we would know what we

want to congratulate you on hav-
ing a lover so sensible. Two years
is a short time, and you will then, as
he says, be old enough to know your
own minds.

Indifferent Then, she went toward
the outer door of the office, still with
that almost lackadaisical air.
Burke waited rather impatiently
until she had nearly reached the door
before he shot his bolt, with a fine
assumption of Carelessness in the an
nouncement.
Carson has confessed"
Mary, who readily enough had al
ready guessed the essential hypocrisy
of all this play, turned and confront
ed the Inspector. and answered with
out the least trace of fear. but with
the f1rmness of knowledge.
100. no, he HASN'T"
Her attitude eXasperated Burke. His
voice roared out wrathfuliy.
What's the reason he hasn't?"
The music in the tones of the an
swer was vocal rebuke.
Because he didn't do it." She
stated that fact as one without a
hint of any contradictory possibility.
well, he says he did it," Burke
vociferated, still more loudly.
Mary, in her turn, resorted to a bit
of finesse, in order to learn whether
or not Carson had been arrested. She
spoke with a trace of indignation.
But how could he have done it,
when he went" she began.
The Inspector fell a victim to her
superior craft. His question came
eagerly.
Where did he go?"
Mary smiled for the first time since
she had been in the room, and in that
smile the Inspector realized his de-
feat in the first passage of this game
of intrigue between them.
You ought to know" she said,
sedately, since you have arrested
him. and he has confessed"
Demarest put up a hand to conceal
his smile over the police officials
chagrin. Glider, staring always at
this woman who had come to be his
Nemesis. was marveling over the
beauty and verve of the one so hat
ing him as to plan the ruin of his life
and his sons.
Burke Was Frantic.
Burke was frantic over being
worsted thus. To gain a diversion, he
reverted to his familiar bullying tao
tics His question burst raspingly.
1t was a question that had come to
be constant within his brain during
the last few hours, one that obsessed
him. that fretted him sorely, almost
beyond endurance.
Who shot Griggs?' he shouted.
Mary rested serene in the presence
of this violence Her answer capped
the climax of the officers exaspera-
ton.

A Happy Month.


And so the days passed swiftly by.
Mrs. Deery and Mildred were frequent
guests at the mansion, and some OF
the dinners that We're served there
We're marvels of good cooking and
good taste Gordon had kept up the
establishment Just his parents had.
A happy month passed One day
Gordon telephoned to Mildred that
some repairs were necessary to a part
of the telephone system on the es-
tate, and as he was the only cleo
trician on the place he begged for
enough time Off to mend things.
With Steve to help him he started
off up the brook and after a welll
of of more sthan a mile came to the
box that was out of order He eN-
amined 1t carefully. There were evil
dences that it had been tempered
with and he puzzled his brain to
account for II. Who could. have done
it2 Certainly no one connected with
the estate
A peculiar tool which he did not
have with him was necessary in or
der to make the repairs and he sent
Steve back to fetch it. While the

commented, with a grudging admira-

considerably surprised to see him, as
she had no Idea he was in the noun

Mildred was on the point of telling
her mother another intimate piece of

herself. but she decided TO wait until
later time As IL turned out she
kept her secret for many weeks. She
had never deceived her mother and
when she talked the matter over with

turn, but she did not see all the way
around the turn. She knew the two
young people were much taken UP
with each other, but she did not know
there had been an avowal. She had
always liked Gordon and after MIL
dred had told her his life story and
she had learned of his people and
saw the great mansion he lived in
she liked him all the more. She GER
| tainly made no move to stop the
friendship between her daughter and

she did not tell her husband of Cor

the ground that the news might leak
