ASoryd Mystery and Adventure
By EMERSON HOUGE1 M
From the Scenario By Va
GRACE CUNARD sss~S xzsSS,

IN the performance OF my own duties
to ask me to be ur:aithful to my en-
ployers? Why. you ever ask me to
deceive the public-to present a coun-
terfeit-to pretend that l have done
what I have not done"
$50? And you cannot take such
good advice?"
NO, l will not. To deceive, to pre-
tend, to couEterfeit-those are attrib-
utes OF your kingdom. not OF my own
country. America. In my country we
have better standards-nen and WON
en- alike-for which l heartily am
glad"
You have a singing tongue, ma
demoiselle." said Count Sachio, red un-
der bis swarthy skin. Perhaps it will
grow milder If left unused. l shall
leave YOU here-until you are willing
to say you are done with Gretzhofen
and ready to return to your own coun-
try. This land, mademoiselle, can
keep It's own secrets-it could even
close over the secret OF the disappear
ance OF a young woman-and leave
her fate a mystery. l trust that you
will reconcider what you have said"
A moment and he had left her once
more. Before he passed through the
door she glanced beyond. The room
was occupied, apparently, by his
friends-escape on that side was i'm
possible.
The other door still remained fas-
tened. Kitty turned to it with bur
glarious intent-usng an art learned
when she was a schoolgirl. With no
better instrument than a hairpin, she
had seen wonders done at opening
locks.
Her brisk interchange OF complI-
ments with Count Sachio had set her
pulses stirring once more. She want
ed to get out-she wanted to escape,
and she proposed to escape. Once
more free, she admitted to herself, she
would be willing enough to take the
kavice which but now she had
scorned-willing enough to take ship
back home, to see the familiar sky
line Of her own city, to find her own
place back in the smoky and grimy
city, her own place in the hum and
grind Of the old newspaper. How
good It would seem to her now to see
the faces Of the local room. They
might char her all they liked. Yes,
she would go back home.
And now, with schoolgirl 1nesse in
the employment Of the small instru-
ment at her disposal, she succeeded
In her burglary. She felt the lock turn
at last-felt It give-saw that she
could open the door. She did open
It-and closed it again.
