she had seen in the dim light that
her dodgers face was pale. She liked
Julia, and she suspected that Caryl
was giving her trouble. And, while
she hesitated, she heard the rustic of

Mr.. Bear had missed his meat and
pies and cake and many good things
he had in his closet, so one night he
thought he would watch and see who
was stealing his food.
He had just cooked a nice fat pig
and piece of roast beef and put them
on the shelf in his pantry, and he did
not intend anyone should get them If
watching could prevent them from be-
ing stolen.
SO Mr.. Bear sat down with his gun
by the window to watch, but Mr.. Bear

Mrs Lindsay would have made a
superb actress.
When the interview was at an end
and Mrs. Pennold had rejoined her
husband, they discussed the disappear

ruin.
Meanwhile, in a modest cottage in
Meadow Lane, in the Bronx, a small
card reading Room to Let" had been
removed from the bay window, and
just behind it's curtains a young man
sat, his eyes fastened upon the house
across the Way-the fourth from the
end of the line. He was tall, dark
young man with a smooth face and
firm-5et jaw, and his new landlady
knew him as Guy Morrow.
All at once, as he sat watching, the
door of the cottage opened, and a
girl came out. There was nothing re-

markable about her; she was quite a
common type of girl; slender, not too
tall, with wealth of red-brown hair
and soft hazel eyes; yet there was
something about her which made Guy
Morrow catch his breath; and throw
ing caution to the winds, he parted the
curtains and leaned forward, looking
down upon her AS she reached the
gate, his gaze drew hers and she lifted
her gentle eyes and looked into his

Guy Morrom sank back in his chair,
and after the warm glow which had
surged up so suddenly within him, a
chill crept about his heart. What could
that slender brown-haired, clear-eyed
girl be to the man he had been sent to
spy upon-to Jimmy Brunell, the

glanced at the car, then at his watch,
hesitated, bought ticket, and jumped
into the back seat.
