been Mrs. Jupiter's favorite among
her various homes because her
memory was too vivid there. Mary
knew. But she did not care; the
Gypsy" suited her purposes even
better. A plan OF almost diaboli.
cal cunning had occurred to her!
AS she rapidly thought out its de.
tails. she knew that she must speak
to Mr.. Jupiter about 1t now. for
certain preparations would have to
be made beforehand. to insure
safety all round-for herself, for
the necklace when it was in her
possession. and possibly for the old
man himself.
She might take chances herself
but she would never again take
chances on behalf of anyone else
the load Of responsibility she al.
ready bore was heavy enough.
At her earnest request. they left
the almost untouched meal and ad.
journed to the library. safe from
the avid ears of the servants.
There, as clearly as she could, Mary
set forth the facts she and Bowen
had gathered about The Fly. 1t
was not a conclusive show Of evi.
dence, but 1t was strong. It needed
final link to make 1t impregnable
that final link could only be The
Fly's confession.
There was still the chance-she
did not admit it, but it was there
that though it had been the Fly's
gun with which Mrs. Jupiter was
shot. Eddie's hand had fred it. II
that were true, she wanted to know
1t. but she did not want other peo.

So they must do without the police
For notoriety followed when one
dealt with the police-she had
found that out. And in that one

would always be coupled with hers
since the official announcement OF
their engagement. even fiber

All this she had to make clear to
Mr.. Jupiter. as well as her plan to
capture the Fly. When she had I'm

"You sure he'll be there?"
"It's almost q certainty, Bowen
thinks. His horse races at Hialeah
on the 18th. He'll show up, all

to let him 60. He's careful. Bowen
says he's the smartest crook un

Jupiter grunted.
1T the police can't swat him. how
do you expect to?"
"By avoiding their methods, ant

had calmed himself, he said:

was almost weeping.
EEAR for him, in his present

She forsook the subject Of Bruce
for the time being.
"Very WE'LL" she said quietly. "If
you're sure you want to do that.
You've always been kind to me, but

I've never done anything to deserve

Its all settled. And It ain't so
much. Not half Of what people

time the taxes are paid and all. you
won't be so rich you'll bend your
back carrying it." This was pure
swank. Mary knew, but she let him
say it. II 1t pleased him to belittle
his wealth, It was q pleasure he
could afford.
II ask only one thing" she said
soberly. "That nothing be said
about It just yet. No one must
know"
He was obviously disappointed
but he agreed. grudgingly. It would
have been infinitely soothing to that
long.festtiing wound to his pride
and his affections which his sons
way OF life had dealt him to let
the world know that Bruce was to
be punished. In his own peculiar
self.sumciency, Bruce had always
evaded him. This was the only
way the father could hurt him.
Mary knew that Mr.. Jupiter was
heartsick over the open break with
Bruce from the listless tone with
which he spoke Of his yacht, for the
