OUTSIDE THE LAW
By STUART RIVERS Co-author of "Love Afr airs of n Lonely Woman5

closed it again and got out of sight
 without you seeing her, at least not all in five seconds" He seemed to be speak ing 10 himself. for his attention had
 gradually becomed fixed on the couch upon which they had stretched the uncon-
 cious form of Mrs. Darrow.
 That always stands there?" he asked, pointing to the massive piece of furni- ture.
 Always" the judge answered. "I had it put there in the corner so we wouldn't have to move it."
 Tracy nodded, and walking across the room, went to a closer examination of the couch.
 The others followed, watching the lit tie chauffeur with interested curiosity.
 Huh" he said, after a time, during which his fingers felt along the back where it joined the seat. Give us hand here till we see if ye can lift this seat out'
 As he spoke he put his weight against the back of the couch. and to their amazement he lunged forward, half dis appearing from view in yawning hoie that was exposed to the wall. There he exclaimed, regaining his feet and watching the astonished faces Of his companions. Does that explain how she got out in such a hurry? All she
 had to do was to make a run and throw herself on the couch, and that swinging back did the rest. Clever devise.' he went on, letting the back regain it's place. Look how easy it swings down again, but you have to use considerable force l to swing it out. When the woman hit I it she just went through as though no back had been there, then it closed again,
 and that's all there was to it. Come to think of it. the judge put l in. s'I don't think I've ever sat on that couch, at least not for a long time. l use that big chair when I'm in this room
 which isn't often"
