Al she entered. quietly she selected
one Of the trunks whose contents were
moro smart than the rest, and laid the
gowns out most fetchmgly about the
room.
In the once Of the hotel few mo-
ments later the naturalist entered. He
booked about curiously, then went over
70 the desk and glanced over the reg
ister. At the name Madame Larenx,
Paris. Room a." he paused.
For some seconds he stood thinking.
Then he deliberately walked over to .
leather chair and took prominent
seat near by in the lobby. He had dis
carded his net. but still had the case.
which now he had showed into his
pocket From Q table he picked up q
newspaper.
It was not long before Del Mar
pulled up before the hotel and entered
in his usual swagger manner. He
had returned to the bungalow. read
the note. and hurried over to the st.
German.
He crossed the lobby, back to the
ONCE. As he did 90 the naturalist had
his face hidden deeply In the open
newspaper. But no sooner had Del
Mar passed than the Newspaper fell
unappreciated, and he gazed after him.
as he left the lobby by the back way.
It was only q few minutes after she
had completed arranging her small
stock 90 that It looked quite impress
sive. that Madame Larenz heard a
knock at the door and recognized Del
Mars secret code. She opened the
door and he strobe in.
II got your note," he said. briefly.
coming directly to business and tell
ing her Just what he wanted done.
LET me see." he concluded, glancing
at his watch. 1T is after three now.
She ought to be here any minute"
5 Outside, Elaine drove up to the
rather garish entrance of the st. Ger
main. and one of the boys in uni
form ran forward to open the door
and take charge of the car. She, too,
crossed the lobby without seeing the
old naturalist, though nothing escaped
him.
AS she passed he started to rise and
cross toward her. then appeared to
change his mind.
Elaine went on out through the back
of the lobby, directed by boy, and
mounted a fight of stairs in prefer
ence to taking the lift to the second.
or sort of mezzanine floor. Down
along the corridor she went, hunting

They looked about carefully. There
was no one on that side Of the hotel
Just at the moment.
Ready" responded one. "Quickl''
Together Del Mar and Madame
Larenx passed Elaine. Intellectually
struggling. out Of the window. The
men seized her and placed her in the
bottom Of the car. which was covered.
Then they shot away. taking back
road up the hill.
Hurriedly the naturalist went
through the lobby In the direction
Elaine had gone. and . moment later
reached the corridor above.
Down It, no could hear someone
coming out Of room "a. He slid into
an angle and hid.
II was Del Mar and the woman he
had seen at the bungalow. They
passed by without discovering him,
nor could he make out anything that
they said. What mischief was afootf
Where was Elainef
He ran to the door and tried II. Il
was locked. Quickly he took from his
pocket . skeleton key and unlocked
It. There was Elaine's hat and dress
lying In . heap on the bed. But she
was not there. He was now thor
oughly alarmed.
She could not have passed him in
the hall. Therefore she must have
gone or been taken out through the
window. That would never have been
voluntary. especially leaving. her
things there.
The window was still open. He
ran to 1t. One glance out was enough.
He leaped to the ground. Sure
enough there were automobile tracks
In the dust.
"Del Mars carl" he muttered to
himself. studying them.
He fairly ran around the side of the
hotel. There he came suddenly upon
Elaine's car standing alone. and rec
ognized It.
There was no time for delay. He
jumped into It and let the swift little
racer out as he turned and gathered
momentum to shoot up the hill on
high speed.
Meanwhile. I had been Jogging along

Elaine might by this time have pur-
chased enough frocks to clothe her
for q year. At any rate I quickened
my pace in the hope of seeing her.
Suddenly my horse SHE'D. and q IA
miliar little car flashed past me. But
the driver was not familiar. Il was
Elaine's roadster. In It was q stran-
ger-a man who looked like "bugol-
ogist." a. nearly a. I can describe

room. She had tainted when they laid
her down and loosened the dress from
about her face 90 that she could
breathe. There they left her, ON the
floor. her hands and feet bound. and
went out.
How long she lay there she never
knew; but ct last the air revived her
and she regained consciousness and

her head ached. But she set her teeth
and began struggling with the cords
that bound her, managing at last to

THIRTY-THIRD EPISODE
THE LURE OF THE MODESTO.

GaFIy one morning very handsome
woman OF the adventures type ar
rived with several trunks at the big
summer hotel Just outside the town,
the st. German.
Among the many fashionable people
at the watering place, however, she
attracted no great attention, and in the
forenoon she quietly went in her mo-
tor for q ride.
It was Madame Larenz, one of Del
Mars secret agents, who, up to this
time, had been engaged in spying on
wealthy and impressionable American
manufacturers.
Her airing brought her finally to
the bungalow of Del Mar, and there
she was admitted in a manner that
showed that Del Mar trusted her
highly.
Now" he instructed, after few
minutes chat, Il want you to get &C
quainted with Miss Dodge. She's quite
human. Pretty gowns appeal to her.
Get her to the st. German. Then
Ill tell you what to do"
A few minutes later the woman left
IN her car, so rapidly driven that no
one would recognize her.
It was early in the afternoon that
Aunt Josephine was sitting on the
veranda when an automobile drove up
and very stylishly gowned and bon
neted woman stepped out.
"Good afternoon" she greeted Aunt

woman had assumed It without being
In any way connected with the places
she mentioned.

woman explained. you see, my peo-
