What horrible and mysterious power, was forcing the three Drake brothers.
 HOBART, the Wall Street broker, ROGER, the scientist, and ANDREW, recently returned from Australia, to place themselves in ridiculous situations Sedate, mid dle-aged and wealthy. the three were now terror-stricken. Some power had forced Hobart to de- liver a mock speech in the public square, Roger to burlesque a scien- tif1c address, and Andrew to sit on the floor and play with toys. They were sane, and
 PATRICIA DRAKE, daughter of Ho- bart secretly secured OWEN MILES. detective sergeant, and his colleague, scOTTIE McCREDY, to investigate, Miles is employed as houseman and Scotte as a gardener. On his first morning, letter, which Miles learns did not go through the mail, arrives and throws Hobart into 8 passion Miles tells Scottie to watch MISS JERUSHA DRAKE, spinster sister of the brothers, whom he discovered in a wildly excited state late at night before an open grate in which she was burning papers of some kind.

Dunno Rip mumbled 1.-TWO fel- lers come through here de yother night-an l ordehs dem away an says de nex' time dey come back I'se gwine to shoot"
 What did they look like?"
 But Rip could give no further in withdrew
 Miles locked up the house and re- tired. The family breakfasted late on Sunday and Carter was we'll enough to serve them but he came out to the detective who was helping in the pantry and asked: William. will you go up to Miss Patricias door and tell her the folks are waiting for her?" Miles hurriedy ascended and knocked upon Patricias door but no reply came to him and after repeating the summons again and again he ven tured to turn the knob. The door swung inword, revealing an empty room, the bed smooth and untouched, and lying in a heap across a chair where it had been carelessly flung was the gown which Patricia had worn the night before. Sle was gone.
 CHAPTER X.
 Miles proceeded straight to the dining room: he must see for himself what reaction the first shock of the news would bring to the family.
 Miss Patricias not there ma'am," the detective said quietly.
 "Not--not there?" The woman's lips barely formed the words and a muttered oath came from Andrew, but Roger only stared while the faint color ebbed from his thin face, leav- ing it waxen.
 Patricia My God, not that Not fthat last blowt" Hobart started up as Miss Drake sank back and Andrew cried out furiously: You see what you've done? You brought it on yourself-."
 oAndrew." The gentle Rogers tone was suddenly stern. You need not add your recriminations to the situation. Patricia is Hobart's daughter, not yours!"
 T must know! I must see for my self" Miss Drake rose. swaying slightly. and left the room
 It's that young rascal Dick Kemp,' Hobart exclaimed. T told Jerusha it was mistake to keep too tight a rein on the girl at this time but she overruled me. I'll get that father of his on the phone-!"
 Wait until Jerusbo returns" in- terrupted Roger. ''The child may have left a note that will explain her absence. may go, William"
 The detective had been ostensibly busying himself at the serving table in the corner but now he was com pelled to retire to the pantry where Carter confronted him.
 T heard!" he exclaimed. You're sure she's gone, William7"
 Didn't ] say the bed hadn't been slept in 2" Miles returned. Where are you going?"
 "To tell Hitty" Carter called back over his shoulder.
 With surprising agility considering his ailment. he darted through the farther door.
 Hobart Drake was seated at his desk sealing an envelope as Miles en- tered in response to his ring.

COON WITH THE STORY

"when-?" Scottie began,
 "wednesday night. here in the house. No one knows but me and I'll tell you about it later"
 Miles continued his duties and no opportunity presented itself to speak to scottie until lunch As he served the midday meal Miss Drake an- nounced:
 "Ora Hawks has returned from her trip to California"
 For | moment there was silence while Andrew ate unconcernedly on. Roeer was almost furtively regarding his brother. Finally he asked, with an embarrassed cough
 You will call, Andrew, no doubt?"
 why should I?" The other looked up coolly and then added with short laugh. T had almost forgotten her existence. Has she changed much? ?'
 Not in appearance a little stouter, perhaps." Miss Drake answered with 9 slieht frown. She is coming for tea this afternoon, 50 you will be able to fudge for yourself"
 rt was late afternoon when in an- wver to the summons of the doorbell he admitted the expected visitor. ahe WIS . stout, severely gowned woman of middle age with graying hair slicked back tightly beneath . smalh stiff hat and a pair of shel- rtmmed glasses athwart the bridge of m inquiring nose.

 How can you ask? should have known you anywhere Tn the world." he returned with suspicious fervor. Then he added hurriedly "Tll get cleaned up at once and come in for tea, and we can have a good talk"
 "1 will wait for you" She turned and moved back slowly toward the house while Andrew stood as though rooted to the spot gazing after her.
 When she had disappeared a single comment from the man reached Miles ears.
 "Damnation,"
 Look" Seottie seized Miles arm and his low voice sank to a husky whisper. There. over the hedge!- Coming from the direction of the vil- lage. Who is it?"

 How do you do, Andrew? Am I the last of your old friends"
 "Ora'' Andrew Drake had wheeled with her first word and held out his hand. Then he drew it back with an apologetic shrug for it's begrimed state. He was coatless in the balmy spring sunshine and both shirt sleeves had been rolled to the elbow, but now he started hastily to pull them down. She noted the action and even from where he stood the detec- tive could see the deep flush which mounted suddenly in her fat, round face.

 'Yon's Anarew Drake, himself!" Scottie breathed, but the woman was speaking once more.
 No gynae 2 Garn!" She laughed stridently. T don't care tuppeny wot it is, but I'm going to have my rights!-'Ow far buck did we leave the bloomin car?"
 They turned and moved back along the pathway in the direction from whic hthey had come. Scottie strengthened with a grunt.
 Two women. eh?" Our friend An drew had an unlucky day. l think l can guess who this one was, just now; the lady you met yesterday"
 "Yes,' Miles replied. Tt was Maizie.'
 CHAPTER TX.
 It was Hobart Drakes unbroken custom of years to return home inn mediately after the market closed at noon on Saturdays, but on the day following that of the arrival of the new gardener, lunchtime came and passed and he did not appear nor did any word come from him.
 There is a station taxi coming down the road and-yes. Hobart is in- side! exclaimed Miss Drake when tea was served
 When Miles reached the library door once more the measured tones of Hobart Drake came distinctly to his ears.
 Sorry. but there were many de- tails to attend to in settling up my affairs"
 Settling up?'" It was Andrew, and the devil may-care note had vanished from his voice.
 T am no longer a member Of the stock Exchange" announced Hobart Drake quietly.
 "of all the d-d fools.' Andrew exploded. First Roger and then you, both of you lying down and talk ing it! By God, l thought there was more fighting blood in the family than that! You're afraid-!"
 It was still comparatively early when Miles was free to join scottie
 There's only one new angle to con- sider" Scottie remarked at last. That is Andrews attitude in the mat ter He's not thinking of the fresh gossip, It may be that he has made a good bit of money through Ho- bart's inside tips in the market and doesn't want to lose the graft. What was that?"

 They crept around the house and were skirting the hedge when sud den movement behind a tree brought them to halt.

 A tremulous voice spoke out of the darkness.
