When 4 Girl M0rries
By ANN LESLIE.


 Over me. I kinda worked to g Hedwig where she would did1 have to work-with Bertha" he [ p5led sheepfsh1y. You see, MT Harrison. I've been suspicious Hedwie ever since the night we tra1 ed that Dick West in the auto"---
 But you were driving the cart'H cried. When MT. Neal and I chas, Dick West to the gate, there you we in the car waiting for him.
 9es'm. But I was watching ba, of the hedge. and done some rt1I ming behind the shrubhery over MI son Towers way to get to the c ahead of him, I seen him under tj windows there. I seen him speak that girl Hedwig and how she kin3 Jumped, Then that time I had Du| row in the garage and you faintd and they all sent every one fumpin' get doctors and things: I seen He| wig snoopin. And once Or twicel caught her hanging around when V, folks was talkin'. So I says to rrll self, says l, that this is the answer something I once told you before. And that's how I'm sure Wd will try to keep a watch on yd! though I can't make out how tIey do that Remember, ma'am ?"
 l remember your saying that. Fl agreed. But even if I were to go far as to believe that Dick Wd thinks I'm worth following with spy, I'd credit him with sense aneul to employ far more clever one thI poor, faithful Hedwig"
 Where do you get that rfaithf| stun, ma'am ?'' asked Lyons with idea of being disrespectful.
 hn Sfo II gy left to take a better positioj Hasn't she always stood by?'' [ auslxI reminiscent1y
 "Of course that might be becalI she was paid to stay" announcI Lyons with conviction. ''Or- it lniaI De that she wasn't always a spy aI that West bought her over when rsoi| other scheme of his failed"
 As he spoke, there fitted acrI my mind a notion of the eroxvi | frfendliness established between DI Lee and me. Was it possible tf} Dick West had been disappointea his expectations regarding my po' old prodigal father? Was it poss;ilI that he had been compelled to IoI elsewhere for a tool and to pick whatever came to l1and-though it | a blunt and rusty instrument Iil
 
 No sooner imagined that reiecfA l shook my head and said:
 Lyons, I don't question your faffN fulness and your good intentions. -fN l can't doubt the loyalty Hedwia- s1,N so oIten proved She was once gel timely fond of me. And nothing All know of has happened to turn hI against me. So, failing a. motive. can't suspect that the woman whose original loyalty and deUotion me I am sure has turned spy.'
 Sure nothing has happened to tiiJ her against you?" persisted IyoI shrewdfy.
 ''I am sure" I replied
 We'll ain't," he flung back me. 'So. begging your pardcX mafam, I'm going to keep on keek ing in right with this Hediwig. Al if you'll only believe in me enou to stop my Bertha from flying off t ! little grateful. You'll do that, even you do think I'm bit nodona1, vol you, ma'am?"
 I'll do that" I chuclzIed open. now. 'tBut I think your worryii over nothing, Lyons Bertha nev you except Loyalty and d F voted1y. She didn't suggest susrE cions"
 'Yesn," he said submissiveIy a1X ''But if she shows sfg5 of tantruns you'l1 known how to ha d1e her.
 Then he stood in silence until gave the order to drive me back and so to the second aanaI ng interview of that afternoon
