1T Is TO LAUGH.

Synopsis.-In December, 1918, four

hear one of the quartet outline a
plan to paralyze Great Britain and
at the same time seize world power.
The other three. Hooking. Ameri-
can, and Steineman and Won Gratz,
Germans. all millionaires. agree to
the scheme. providing another man,
Hiram Potts, an American, is taken
In. The instigator of the plot gives
his name as Comte de Guy. but
when he leaves for England with
his daughter he decides to use the
name Carl Peterson. Capt. Hugh
(Bull-Dog) Drummond, retired
ofncer. advertises for work that
will give him excitement, signing
"x10." As result he meets Phyl-
lis Benton. . young woman who
answered his ad. She tells him OF
strange murders and robberies OF
which she suspects a band headed
by Peterson and Henry lexington.
She fears her father Is involved.
Drummond goes to The Larches,
Miss Benton's home, next door to
The Elms. Peterson's place. Peter
son and Lexington stop his car and
look him over. While dining with
Phyllis and her father Drummond
leaves The Larches and explores

envelope, with covering letter to his

Then he took a sheet of nUtepaper,

considerable amusement. judging by

keen observer might have thought

that well-known thoroughfare-see
that he had been there for three hours
remained serenely unconscious of It..
His pal had followed the Dennys to
Paddington. Drummond had not come
out-and the watcher who watched
without was beginning to get bored.
About A 80 he sat up and took notice
as SOME one left the house; but it was
only the superbly dressed young man
whom he had discovered already was
merely a clothes-peg calling himself
Darrell.
The sun was getting low and the
shadows were frightening when taxi

the watcher drew closer, only to stop

With tolerant eye he watched them

and the melody continued to float out
through the open window.
Ten minutes later he was relieved.
It was quite an transformations relief ;
Another man merely strolled past him.
And since there was nothing to re-
port, he merely strolled away. He
could hardly be expected to know that
up In Peter DarreH's sitting-room, two
perfectly sober young men were con-
tompiating with professional eyes an
extremely drunk gentleman singing In
chair, and that one Ct those two
sober young men was Peter Darrell.
Then further interior activity took
place in Half Moon street, and as the
darkness fell, silence gradually settled
on the house.
Ten o'clock struck, then eleven

was not till eleven-thirty that q sud-

20 use the forward pass with some
