Tuppence Enters Domestic Service.

Tuppence Enters Domestic Service.
When Tommy set forth on the trail
of the two men, 1t took all Tuppence's
self-command TO refrain from accom-
panying him. However. she contained
herself as best she might, consoled by
the reflection that her reasoning had
been justified by events. The two
men had undoubtedly come from the
second floor fiat. and that, one slender
thread Of the name Rita" had set
the Young Adventurers once more
upon the track Of the abductors of
Jane Finn.
The question was what to do next?
She retraced her steps to the entrance
hall of the mansions. 1t was now
tenanted by small lift-boy, who was
polishing brass fittings, and whstlng
the latest air with good deal Of
vigor and a reasonable amount of ac-
curacy

all events, she invariably got on well

albert be it." said Tuppence. She
glanced mysteriously round the hall
The effect was purposely broad one
in case Albert should miss 1t. She leaned
toward the boy and dropped her voice ::
II want word with you. Albert"
Albert ceased operations on the fit
tings and opened his mouth slightly:
Look! Do you know what this
is?" With a dramatic gesture she
flung back the left side Of her coat
and exposed small enameled badge.
1t was extreE.ely unlikely that Albert
would have any knowledge of It
indeed, 1t would have been fatal for
Tuppence's plans. since the badge in
question was the device OF a local
corps originated by the archdeacon in
the early days Of the war. It's pres
ence in Tuppence's coat was due to
the fact that she had used II for pin-
ming in some flowers day or two
before. But Tuppence had sharp
eyes. and had noted the corner of a
three-penny detective novel protrud-
Ing from Albert's pocket, and the i'm

her that her tactics were good. and
