I had found 8 certain numb- ed peace in the pact of outward amity and concealed indifference which we had kept up since Grace Draper's suicide had cleared Dicky's mind of the awful suspicion he had | held against me. But my heart told me that the peace had passed and that the old uncertainty was shak- ing me.
 Harry Underwood, however, gave me no chance for either of what Lillian calls the Spection twins, Re- tro and Intro. As we climbed the three flights of stairs leading to the roof for he had ignored the eleva- tor, he rapidly, but in low tones, outlined his reasons for taking me there.

 I knew better than to utter any disclaimer of his statement. He was not giving me a compliment but stating his belief, and I answered him simply.
 "11l do the best I can" I said, and he patted my shoulder compan- ionably.

 His voice was loud and nonchal- ant, and for several minutes we served our tennis balls against the wall as if we were wholly engrossed in the practice. Then solicitously in quiring if I were tired, we sat down upon the seat which Olina and I had occupied, and in pantomine I showed him where the arrow had dropped. He marked the spot and then turned cautiously toward the direction from which it was plain the arrow had come. My eyes fol- lowed his and I had hard work to keep back an exclamation of dis may,
 In the doorway of the roof bunga- low which was exactly in the line of our vision, stood an elderly wom- an whom I had seen several times in my trips to the roof for exercise. She glared at us for the fraction of a second then clammed the door vigorously.

 But what are you going 10 do when it is ended? l asked the qucs~ tion of my iavorite bookseller, who answered that he was going to be- gin to eat again and to watch his weight. As soon as if begins 10. in crease he is going back on the diet again.
 If will increase just as certainly as he increases hls amount of cal oric intake beyond the needs of his body for routine physiologic wear and tear. But he won't stay on the diet. He will get tired of it.
 The 1S-day diet has the pyscholo- gical appeal of mob action. There is the desire 10 he doing what cv- erybody else is doing, There is the thrill of competition.

 tel Guest.
 I wasted no time in questioning Harry Underwood's command to ge my wraps, tennis racquet and ball! in readiness for trip to the roo with him. His peremptory tones anc manner, and the lines in his fact told me that he had found mucf work and worry since I had brought him the mysterious message fasten- ed to an arrow. It was not for me to detain him with question oi quibble.
 But when I came into the living room with a beret on my head wearing q sweater and carrying the tennis things, MT. Underwood look ed up approvingly.
 "You're a quick dresser, Lady Fair" he said. i've got a minute or two left, so join the circle while I spill what I've found out"
 Lillian made a place for me on the couch beside her, while Harry and Dicky drew their chairs oppo- site.
 "They're trying the old psychol- ogv stuff" he said. That note said all our precautions were vanity vanity or words to that effect. They want Prince Georges, it goes on, and if he will give himself up to them, they will give the word of the Ken ellos that neither Mary nor Olina will he harmed. Otherwise-well' the threats aren't exactly bedtime stories for nervous ladies. Don't worry, Lady Fair. The girls aren't in any danger, What's hothering me is the fact that those devils have been able to plant somebody here beside the dame we know about on the floor below"
 "The supposed writer?" I asked as he paused.
 "Yes. She's innocuous. now. be- cause we spotted her early enough to keep cases on her. She doesnt move anywhere without somebody trailing her. But she was here long enough before we got on to her to spv out the land for somebody else and that's the lad-or lady-we're wanting. For it's a cinch that some where in the hotel is a person pos ing as a guest, who in reality is a member of Kenellos. And that's dis tinctly bad medicine for us. But I'll spill the rest to you when we get back"
 Is Madge in Danger?
 Look here," Dicky said peremp- torily. "Is there danger for her up there. For if so, she doesn't go,"
 There was something in his tone which made my pulses jump. It was the dominant protective note, to which any woman responds, no mat ter how modern or how feministic she may be.
 Not a bit Mir. Underwood re- turned. You've got crust to think I'd take her anywhere there'd be danger
 "Piffle." retorted Dicky, "also Pap! and Pop! You wouldn't do it consciously, of course, but you and Lii have such confounded one-track minds that when you're on a propo- sition like this you lose oil sense of perspective. And then, of course. there's no Such word as danger in your own vocabularies. Everybody has to hand it to you there"
 Thanks for the cauliflower, even though served without cream sauce" Mir. Underwood grinned imperturb- no danger for your frau. l shall

 Old Mother Nature.
 It is no wonder that Peter Rabbit rubbed his eyes and stared and then rubbed his eyes again Certainly it was a strange creature-at least, a strange looking one when it came out from under q stone near the Laughing Brook. Peter knew it for member of the insect world, but in all his experience he never had seen anything like it. It had a big. rather square head with prominent eyes. There were two long autcnnae, or feelers. Projecting from the mouth were two great curved jaws. Peter could imagine how it would hurt to be pinched with those jaws. At first he thought that this curious insect had but two wings. In q mo- ment or two, however, the wings were spread and he saw that there were four such as the dragonfly has. They were somwhat lacy in appear ance, but much speckled. When they were spread they were quite five inches across.
 Peter took q step forward and the great insect suddenly took wing and flew away. It al.ghted on a big rock not far off Peter scratched d long ear with a long hindfoot. Then h- scratched the other long ear with the other long hinIfoof.

TARIFF FIGHTERS
EVENLY MATCHED
Friends and Foes of Policy
Involved in Flexible Plan
Equally Confident.
BY the Associated Press.


Contending factions In the Senate
dispute over retention in the tariff bill
of the 7-year-old policy of permitting
the President to change customs duties
continued to express confidence of sue
cess yesterday, after round. of con-
ferenceS.
The Senate took a day off for the
first time since 1t began considera lion
of the Hawley-Smoot measure, three
weeks ago, and all groups, realizing the
influence victory will have for their
respective causes, were bending their
energies to corral all possible votes.
Republican leaders, backed by Presi-
dent Hoover in their efforts to keep
the flexible principle in the bill, retire.
ated they had enough votes to win
when the issue is decided this week.
Democratic chieftains countered
strength to repeal the provision. They
were supported in this view by the Re-
publican independents, who share their
sympathies on the question.
Single Vote May Decide.
That the issue may hinge on a
single vote was indicated by Senator
Smoot, Republican, Utah, who said
he was unwilling to give the Demo-
Gratis pair for Senator Copeland Of
New York, en- route home from Europe.
The finance committee chairman
viewed the readiness of the Democrats
to vote Friday as based on the condi-
ton that a pair be obtained for
Copeland, but Senator Simmons, North
Carolina. ranking minority member Of
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-09-29

the committee, said he was prepared
for the ballot without q pair.
Smoot said he would ask for q vote
by 4 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, but
thought decision would be delayed
until later
The terse remark. "As the flexible
provision goes, so goes the bill, dropped
by Senator Sackett Of Kentucky, q Re-
publican member Of the finance COM
mittee, seemed to sum up the feelings
of the administration Republicans.
Anxious to strengthen the Demo-
cratic cause. the Republican indepen6-
ents held meeting during the day
and decided to propose an amendment
to the Simmons proposal for repeal
Of the flexible provisions, and for max
ing the Tariff Commission an agency
OF Congress alone.
Norris Proposal.
Framed by Senator Norris, Repub-
lican, Nebraska. the amendment would
provide that whenever the commission
recommended a change in a duty to
Congress, consideration should be con-
fined to the item or items in the re-
port. thus avoiding a general revision
every time the commission acted.
The proposal, which the Democrats
are inclined to favor, would be in the
nature of a declaration of policy
against opening up the tariff to general
revision every time the commission re-
ported.
In event the minority plan fails, the
Republican independent group is under
stood to be prepared to offer another
amendment in the form of q compro-
mise, but still giving Congress the final
say as to rate changes.
It would allow the President to pro-
claim new rates after investigation by
the Tariff Commission, but also would
provide that either house, within 90
days, could nullify the proclamation by
resolution.
