Agency, struck him as about as likely a
name as any; he hurried to their offices.
Meyer & Rubens were on the third floor
of building that had theater at the
street level, quite sumptuous with marble
tiles in the foyer, brass grill for the ticket
office, and display of big photographs on
easels. The hall that gave entrance to the
office floors was wooden and shabby, and
smelt. The second floor was shabbier than
the first, and the third almost dilapidated.
I .OUD voices and laughter came from
the Offices of Meyer & Rubens. The
outer room of the agency was so small
that the half dozen men lounging in it
with their hats on were jammed shoulder
to shoulder. A stout man with curly
black hair and a green plush hat looked
around at Percy. want to see somebody"
I'D like to talk to one of the firm, said
Percy.
"I'm Mr.. Meyer" said the other in a
deep, oily voice. @What can do?'
II want to engage an actor" Percy
was somewhat diffident.
you'd better come into my office. !"
The inner Office was an apartment
about as big as the ice-box in six-room
fiat. Two men were in it, playing cards.
aWill you gentlemen excuse us?s asked
Mr.. Meyer.
The two gentlemen evaporated, and Mr..
Meyer inserted himself behind sick
looking roll.top desk. Percy sat down on
q kitchen chair.
What kind Of an actor do you want?n
asked Mr.. Meyer.
II want man that can play a clever
little piece all by himself. He's got to
look like me enough to pass for me when
he's made up for the stage"
what kind of a show is it?"

Mr.. Meyer broke into smile.
@Do you know he said. aas you come
in says to myself, There's dead
ringer for AL Katz.' Honest, tell
you without the slightest exaggeration,
I thought for minute you was AL. Does
the actor you want have to furnish his
own script, or have you got something
written for him?'
4No; ! haven't got anything ready.
The fact isl Percy stammered, Ill
promised to do something, and it is incon-
venient-I can't spare the time to work
it up-I mean l want to get somebody to
appear for me, but want my friends to
think am doing it myself. Understand?'
"Sure, get you. Now, AL katz could

@You bet. That's high-grade stuff and
no mistake, AL
"There you are. What'll you have?

few jokes, and sing a couple Of songs.
He amt got no regular voice, you under
stand; he just talks 'em, if the orchester
will play him little stop. He will do an
eccentric dance for wind-up. Believe
me, mister, AL is good lad. His work is
high-class. You won't make no mistake
if you engage AL"
3Does he look like me?n
mister, l told you he might be your
twin brother. The same eyes, hair, every-
thing"
where can l see him?1
Let me see. The teams in Apollo two
days, and then AL has three days open.
Could you go to Apollo if I was to make
date for you by wire?"
Percy took the first train to Apollo
about two hours run from his home town.
He had hard work finding anybody at the
theater at that hour Of the day, but he
had no trouble in picking out the billing
OF his man. The team name was aKatz
and Carey, the Bughouse Buns Percy
shuddered. Only the fact that there re-
mained but three days before the Elks'
show prevented him from going home.
Al KATZ did have vague, general re-
semblance to Perce. If the police had
been looking for Perce on murder
charge, they probably would have picked
up AL on description. They were the
same height. Both had gray eyes and
medium shoulders, straight noses and
brown hair. There was something like
Perce in AIS expression, but that was
hard to define. 1t must have been rather
strong to make itself noticed at all, the
two men were so different in dress and
bearing. Perce wore gray mixed busi-
ness suit, blue kersey overcoat, black
derby hat, and rubbers. AL wore mus
tard-colored check suit, spotted fawn
Newmarket overcoat with near-white vel
vet collar and cuffs, yellow shoes with
white tops, black-and-white check golf
cap, and had been drinking.
AL willingly gave ear to Perce's propo-
sition.
4It's pipe, kid" he said. The inter-
view took place at one end of frowsy
bar-room, to which Perce had been di-
rected from AIS clearinghouse. 4We
can slip that acrost all right. I'll sneak
