CHAPTER TX.

7 ENNIE'S new-found girl friend
at the office the next day told
- Jennie that she had fixed" It
up for them to go out on time"
that evening with the two young
men. Also, that one Of the young
men had plenty Of money, and she
had known him for a long time-that
they would go to the girls room after
work and get cleaned up and meet
the boys later.
While they were dressing, Jennie
marveled how any girl getting seven
dollars q week could have such a nice
room and furniture-but the girl ex-
planned It was easy-if you knew
HOW.
While they were dressing the two
young men came in-without knock
ing-and seemed to be quite at home,
especially-as Jennie's friend ex-
planned later-the one that had
money
He kissed Jennie's friend. They
had brought a bottle of cocktails. and
after having one all around Jennie
felt a little. more at ease and wasn't
quite so shocked at her friend for
sitting on the young mans lap and
smoking a cigarette.
Jennie's friend had put on another
dress and hat after getting home that
made Jennie and her simple little

this corner, just outside one Of the
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.
IN 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,
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 hrilliance 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 prediCament by this ENHANCEMENT
over the death Of a spy. But he was
resolved to use his best skill to dis
arm her sOphistiCation His large
voice was modulated in kindness as
he spoke in a casual manner.
Il Just sent for you to tell you that
you're free"
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.
Then, l can go" she said, simply
Sure. you can GO Burke. replied,
amiably.
Without any delay. yet without any
haste, Mary glanced toward Glider
and Demarest. who We're watching
the scene closely. Her ewes were
somehow appraising, but altogether

by the mistakes of other foolish
girls who had wrecked their lives be-
cause they thought they knew more
than their friends, how different her
life would have been and the misery
that would have been avoided.
Jennie and her girl friend and the
young men arrived at the beach and
had a very hilarious dinner, at which
the young men and the young girl
friend drank more than they should.
Jennie wanted to drink as much as
they did, but it made her sick, and
besides she did not like the taste of it.
Jennie overheard the other girls fell
low tell her that Jennie was a bear,
only she ought to get some decent
looking clothes"
Jennie pretended she didn't hear,
but it made her more determined than
ever to have good clothes and look
as well or better than the other girls
she saw. That night, when the young
man finally brought her to the corner,
near her home, Jennie wasn't quite so
reluctant as she would have been
some days before when he argued for
"a good might kiss"

Jennie kept thinking of the good

Advice to the Lovelom

Dear Miss Fairfax:
1 am Is and deeply in love with
a man three years my senior. 1
know my love is returned. He
told me an idea he had, and asked
me to give him a true answer. He
said it would be best if we should
part for about two years, and
then we would know what we
were doing. 1 know 1 will not be
happy without him. ANXIOUS.
I 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.
Make such an agreement with him,
and stick to 1t. Give yourself a
to grow to be a woman before
you claim to feel a woman's love.

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.

Mary, who readily enough had al
ready guessed the essential hypocrisy
of all this play, turned and confront

out the least trace Of fear. but with
the firmness Of knowledge.

Her attitude exasperated Burke. His
voice roared out wrathfully.
What's the reason he hasn't?''
The music in the tones of the an
sWer was a vocal rebuke.
Because he didn't do it," She
stated that fact as one without a
hint of any contradictory possibility
We'll, 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 il,

The Inspector fell victim to her

Mary smiled for the first time since
she had been in the room, and in that
smile the Inspector realized his de-

of intrigue between them.
