Tuppence Enters Domestic Service.

Tuppence Enters Domestic Service.
When Tommy set forth on the trail
Of the two men. it 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 Adventures 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. It was now
tenanted by a small lift-boy, who was
polishing brass fittings. and whistling
the latest air with a good deal Of
vigor and a reasonable amount Of &C.
curacy.
He glanced round at Tuppence's
entry. There was a certain amount

The boy grlnned responsibility.
"Albert. MISS" he corrected.
albert be It." said Tuppence. She
glanced mysteriously round the hall.
The effect was purposely a broad one
in case Albert should miss 1t. She leaned
toward the boy and dropped her voice:
IT want a word with you. Albert"
Albert ceased operations on the fit
tings and opened his mouth slightly:
look! Do you know what this
Tsp With a dramatic gesture she
flung back the left side Of her coat
and exposed a small enameled badge.
It was extremely unlikely that Albert
would have any knowledge OF il
indeed. II 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. Its pres
ence In T%uppence's coat was due to
the fact that she had used II for pin
ming in some flowers n 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
mediate enlargement OF his eyes told
her that her tactics were good. and

Banks, when we runs into a heavy fog.
Air turned cold. Iceberg clost, thinks l.

head. The Hampton Rhodes was one of

what happened to the Hampton Rhodes.
He spat gracefully and accurately upon a

that was gone. Wal, was shet of that

Fumbled about in his hip pocket until
hastily offered him plug of chewing.
He scritinized the plug closely, turning it
over and over. Then he bit off a gen.

waggled like unto those of Tutti-Frutti

HITCH IN NEGOTIATIONS
OYER RUHR INDUSTRIES
IndustriaIists Refuse to Open Shops
Unless Working Hours
Are Increased

| BY The Associated Press
Paris, Nov. 13.--An important hitch
has occurred in the negotiations be-
tween the authorities of occupation In
the Ruhr and the industrialists headed
by Hugo SHINES for the resumption
of operations, said in official circles
| to be due to the efforts of the indus
Itrialists to obtain the approval of the
allies for a plan TO oblige the work
men to work overtime. The heads of
Industry declare that unless the hours
OF labor are extended from eight hours
to 10 hours per day 1t will be impos-
sible to make deliveries on reparation
account
1t Is held at the French foreign Of
| fee that If the workmen in the Ruhr
Iagreed to furnish nine hours of labor
| it would provide an immense addition
al profit to the industries. and that
with the 1o-hour day they could make
that profit over and above anything
they delivered on reparation account,
so that the proposition amounts to the
shifting of the reparation burden TO
the shoulders of the laboring popula-
ton.
The French government, II is said,
Is not disposed to favor any scheme
that would thus shift the burden and
at the same time put immense addi-
tional profits into the pockets of the
coal and iron magnates.
An official of the foreign office re-
called today the estimate made by
Fred 7. Kent of the American econom-
ic committee of the international
chamber of commerce. that one hour
a day extra labor by the employees in
German industry would enable the
country TO pay annually $4,000. 900, 900
gold marks In PREPARATIONS, and the IN
ference was drawn that two extra
hours would more than suffice to meet
Germany's reparation obligations with
out demanding any sacrifice from the
industries.
II is felt here that Herr SHINES and
his associates are maneuvering 10
make the allies responsible for the ex-
tension Of hours OF labor which the
industr1alists themselves are demand.
