to be absorbed in her work.

The girl glanced up. A tall man
stood beside her. He was lean and
dark and had an aquiline face. He
tapped one putteed leg with his rid

caught the CLEAN of large ruby upon
one of his white fingers. Before the
girl could reply Delaine himself

HELEN left the old-fashioned, slow
running elevator and turned down the
long hall to room ell A large, high
ceilinged room with hideous dark
woodwork, black marble mantel and
green plush furniture. 1t was one of
Boston's weli-known but oldest ho-
tells. in which a double room and
bath could be had for 81.

the maid had closed. Helen drew down
the shades, rang for ice water, and
flung herself on the green plush
couch.
In spite of the whiting heat she had
spent most of the day exploring the
antique shops. If only she could learn
to stop when she was tired, and not
keep on until she was ready to drop!
she unwrappped and gloated over her
But now she forgot her fatigue as

door. "Just set it in there"
The colored boy put down the
pitcher, and Helen fumbled in her
purse for a dime. The. ice clinked
refreshingly as she filled the glass.
Even the beaded perspiration on the
pitcher looked cool.
She would pack now, and have that
off her mind-then she could rest.
Warren was not coming back to the
hotel He had settled the bill that
morning and had arranged for her to
meet him at the station for the 5: 33.
Clearing the table she lifted up the
suit case. Warren's pajamas, safety
razor, brushes went in one end; her
nightgown, slippers, powder, cold
cream, etc, in the other. On top she
laid smoothly his shirts and her blue
taffeta dress.
Because Warren loathed the bother
of baggage, they, never took more
than the suitcase for two days trip,
and crowding everything in was al
ways task.
She was buckling the straps when
she remembered the soap and tooth
brushes in the bathroom. These in
she strapped it finally. The candle

but she would take take anyway.
Now she could lie down. 1t was
only\ four-there was still over an
hour to rest. She glanced longingly
at the bed. made up with fresh linen
and fresh white Counterpart. But
as they were not paying for another
night, it seemed hardly fair to rum
pie it, so she lay down again on the
hot, sticky couch.
Through half-closed eyes, vaguely
she studied the room. The sun
slanted in from under the drawn
shades, lighting up a strip of the dusty

for electricity, and the stain on the

he murmured, as If to himself
Caryl turned toward the window
by which the typewriter stood. when
ever you are ready, Mr.. Delaine," she
said, somewhat stiffly, Il am ready
to begin"
The man started slightly. Excuse
me for keeping you waiting!" he ex-
claimed Il was thinking of some
thing else But we'll get down to
brass lacks at once. Mr.. Jennings
has told you of the arrangement"
Yes" the girl replied.
Really" Delame explained, this
interview this morning was more for
the purpose of getting acquainted than
for actual work. although have some
stuff I would like you to copy before
you 60. Do you think you will be
able to do the work."
Yes. indeed Caryl assured him
Then it's settled declared Delaine.
Now, if you will take these papers
and make a double copy of each of
them that will be all for today. You
will find paper. etc. in the drawer
of the machine table"
With nod, he went into the next
room while Caryl sat down at the
typewriter and began to copy the
notes he had given her. She was
excited and nervous, and was obliged
to stop again and again to erase many
blunders made by her uncertain
fingers. &....a.
She was we'll on toward the end
of her task when she heard the door
bell ring. No one answered, and,
when it sounded second time, there
was an impatient movement behind

the room to which Delaine had re-
tired, and his voice called loudly,

of the study opened and solemn,
moon-faced Chinaman glided noisless-

into the hallway, and moment later
Caryl heard the front door open and
a ~jovial voice raised in greeting.

Inc nest day I'll the world knew.
There was no keeping it out of the
newspapers.
Lady Brooke the beautiful wife of
the new 4. c. NJ. G., the great Godfrey
Brooke, traveller. explorer, Empire
Inaker-had mysteriously disappeared,
leaving no trace behind her.
Twents-four hours passed. forty
eight and no result. The police had
completely failed to supply solution
to the battling mystery.
Crdwley had summoned up courage
to call on Brooke early in the morning
after his interview with Mr.. Patton.
The change in Brooke was startling.
appalling He sat huddled up in an
armchair, his great. rugged head bow
ed low on his chest, his strong. cap
able, hairy hands hanging Imply by
his sides.
Brooke. old man." Crawley ven
tured at last; Il can't tell you how
sorry am to hear the news.
But, as he spoke, the moekery Of
the whole thing struck him with pc
culiar force. What a monstrous farce
1t all was! What a tragedy. what a
betrayal, what lie.
Brooke raised his haggard face. His
eyes were bloodshot.
"O1d man" he said weakly, this
seems like judgment on us-on me,
at any rate"
why didn't you send for me?''
asked Crawley. why didn't you tell
me before? had no idea. p"
Again the torrent of lies died on his
lips for very shame.
Somehow or other" said Brooke,
II felt didn't want to. sI-well,i !

hut felt I'd rather meet the blow
alone. But, tell me, old man, what
does 1t mean? What can possibly have
happened?"
