Lloyd was no longer comfortable,
Suspicion had fallen definitely upon
her. Queer glances were thrown in
her direction, and il was obvious
that nearly everyone suspected her
OF the attempted burglary.

Doris fe-- an accountable shyness
under the intent gaze of the novelist.
Durand and Miss Fullerton had moved
away, and she was panically con-
-cious that she must say something
to this brilliant man. Her cropping
mind could think of nothing but tick
cts to the course of knowledge, which
remained closed books to her. and she
made an inward vow that she would
leave no smallest detail of them un-
learned.
Had she known Jacques Norvell bet
ter she would have realized how su-
perfluous he considered words. With
the eyes of a mystic, he looked be-
yond eXternale.
You are very unkind to me-" he
murmured. still holding her gaze with
his -caressing eyes.
"Oh, no." Doris protested literally;
II just couldn't think of anything
to say"
a quick smile lit his dark eyes.

which few women possess. But earli-
er this evening, when Mrs. Durand
presented me, you gave Ine a chill lit
tie hand and your eyes registered no

But 1 never saw you before in my
life" protested Doris.
He shrugged disappointed shoulders.
You can't recall? All. well, let me
remind you that back in that other

appeal. Was there no one to rescue
