She nodded. Her eyes, which were emerald
green, widened.
I'D like to CO." Gilda said
Tho Tragedy At the Bah.
A masked figure followed them noiselessly up
stairs and slipped behind tho portieres to observe
them.
Sutton, face to face with his first real adventure,
was fascinated by the little Queen in Green-not
prepared perhaps to encounter such youthful shy
at behring's. And now he attempted to dis
her identity, rather roughly, but she evaded
his curiosity and ardent advances and coaxed him
to show her behring's quarters.
The masked man watched them out of narrow
eye-slits. They visited tho farther rooms; then,
having satisfied her curiosity, the Queen In Green
turned on her dainty heel
As the two retraced their steps she prettily avoid
ed Sutton's love-making. It was only after he
masked and they had stopped by the portieres-so
close that the man behind them could have stabbed
then-that the girl turned impulsively to Sutton,
put her arms around his neck. and took his kiss
passionately as he gave it.
It lasted but q second. She stepped back against
the portieres Both seemed holly embarrassed.

bic than It had already revealed.
The two men watched him; the leisurely certainty
of everything he was doing preoccupied Sutton.
why, she's deadr said Pockmsn coolly
This girl is deadi" repeated Pocknsn, still look
ing significantly at Sadoul. Then he shrugged his
bony shoulders, went over TO the telephone, and
called his laboratory. While waiting he said 70
Sadoul: Here's my chance, by God It will take
about three hours" he added, and half an hour
more"-
Five hours had passed since Pockman had dexter
ously performed his startling operation -Four
hours since Sutton reverently had laid the single
rosebud across her breast and fallen into troubled
sleep beside her bed
Only the striking clock brought him back to con-
seriousness.
For little while he stood gazing into darkness,
dreadng to move. Then, very slowly he turned
and went to tho silent bedside.
And noticed that her clasped hands had fallen
apart.
Lethargy still fettered mind and body; duly he
noticed; DULY attempted to account. Then the
shock came. For her right hand clutched his rose
bud. And her fingers stirring now-the hand
almost imperceptibly creeping across the counter
pane.
At that instant the girl opened her eyes.

\AIUKNlNE, without delusionS,
- sadoul went about his business in
life doing no particular good. and
with capacity for harm limited
only by his talents. He had been little
of everything, and always clever-art
student, medical student, reporter, critic,
observation-disclosures, adroit.
He entertained no decisions concern
ing mankind, its friendship or its love;
he neither expected nor desired anything
of 1t except the saturnine amusement Th
which he extracted from it, and which
was his principal form of pleasure.
Then Chance tripped him up. An oAA
swering his call for English stenog-
rapher one day the American firm the tn,
Rue Colchas sent him girl, Gilda Green
way equipped to take dictation. H..
1t appeared that Gilda was equipped for
more than that Sadoul silently went
mad about her.
Sadoul became her shadow everywhere. And
save only for certain lines of resistance, he seemed
to have utterly mastered her. But those occult line
held.
His impression upon her had already been made
he could stamp 1t deeper, the girl was not In low
with him. She never would be. And he knew 1t.
She seemed to be a passionless little thing, he

Early in Spring cabled offer from New Yor
brought Sadouls affairs to a climax For three day
Sadoul beat at her very soul to club It into submis

Again he battered her with his implacable will
till her bruised, stupefed mind gave up. But tn
lines held.

He was having his way with her-or tried to be

And then Destiny pulled an ugly face at him
For the girl utterly refused to submit to the relig

Then as he encircled her waist again
she drew swift, agonized breath and
lurched forward against him.
He reeled under the sudden impact; her
silk-clad body sagged, her masked head
fell backward, and then, as he caught her,
the Queen in Green collapsed in his arms.
Sutton tried to find her pulse, and
failed; tried to locate her heart, and
couldn't. There was nothing to loosen.
He opened a window and came back to
her. Then he went out to the gallery and
shouted down through the clatter and
music:
"Sadouli Sadoul! Come up herer
'Your girl-the girl you brought with
you-has tainted. You'd better find DR..
Poclman and come up. don't know

Sadoul and Pockman, in gorgeous cos
tunes but unmasked, entered together in
a few minutes.
Pockman bent over her; Sadoul and SUIT
