have to do it,"
Shall we 60 right up?" The
question was SuperfluouS but
served as a greeting.
On the way up in the elevator,
Mantel said, II suggested to Vane
that he go to hotel for the night
:. as soon as he got out on bail.
He didn't like the idea of coming
back here"
II can understand that" Ingles
was grim.
Possibly not what you think at

something quite different"

argue on the value of a word, my
dear fellow. The point is that I
asked Vane to meet us here at this
hour"
But I thought you wanted to

IT do" Mantel assured him,
land there are certain things that
I can investigate better with Mr..
Vane on the premises"
The elevator came to a stop,
and the two men got out and
moved to the same door through
which the inspector had passed
to such a shock two nights before.

Steps rang outside the cell door.
Times up, Miss" came the
harsh voice of the guard.
You gotta go, Miss" warned
the guard, land here's another
visitor"
Cyrus K. Mantel entered the
cell. Without glance at Betty
he said to Vane:
I've arranged for bail, my boy,

papers arrive. I've got several

We'll, run along, you've got it,"
You bet I have" she cried, and
walked swiftly from the cell, with
never a backward glance at the
creStfallen Vane.
The evening paper bore head
lines in bold print to this effect:

He looked at the inspector, his
eyes narrowed.

heavy perfume seems out of

chosen things" He lifted his eye

THE finely chosen things, as
you put it," IngleS answered the
gesture, ARE representative of

heavy scent is-or rather was

found him night before last?"
Right here in front of the fire,
slumped over in his chair"
WAS he unconscious?"
HE appeared to be out cold
:" Ingles hesitated. Il hate
to say it, but, at first, both the
other officers thought that he was
foxing. Later we felt sure that he
was doped."
Cyrus K. nodded. Find any
signs Of a struggle?" he asked.
None at all, and that's a funny
thing, too. Everything was in per-
feet order-eVen the bed"
What do you mean by that?"
Cyrus K. was surprised.

her eyes dropped from his.
Yes, this morning early. He's

he was here to help me. Oh, do

think he CAM"
HE can if any one can" she
assured him sturdily. Uncle
Cyrus can find a clue where every
one else had despaired of there
being one. and he can follow q
clue, once it is found to the Nth
degree Of deduction. Uncle Cyrus
never gives up. and he doesn't
fail. If there's anything for him
to work on"
Everything that there is seems
to be against me-" Vane was
moody and somber again, his tenn
porary brightness Of interest gone.
Il must say that if I were in their
place, I would think as they do.
It's a good lesson for anyone to
learn. Not to judge too quickly
on what seems to be. Circum-
stantial evidence is a cruel thing"
he laughed shortly. They say
that sometimes jailbirds become
philosophers" he said, "but I could
choose an easier chair to do my
thinking in than that overwarm
one they have up at Sing Sing"
Betty Strengthened up, and
looked him in the eye.

him that some of the fire Of her
hair had crept into her voice.
That's no way to get out Of a

She held up a silencing hand.
"Oh! I know how hateful it is
when you are in trouble to have
Pollyanna come in and preach

swept on. "try to think Of all the
things that might help Uncle

could have sworn I knew look dif-
ferent to me now, and lots Of

hers. "begin to seem almost pos

on his arm. where's 1sobel?"

But that's impossible!" Betty
was impatient. You must know"
II don't know" he repeated.
"They say she's dead, and that I
killed her. But l.. L don't know"
Betty studied the thin eSthetic
face before her compassionately.
Her eyes dwelt on the richly wav.
ing black hair, followed down the
aristocratic, thin-nostriled nose,
rested SreathleSSly on the gener-
GUS, curved mouth. and came to
rest at the firm square chin. Here
was a man, she thought, who
would injure himself to help an
other, but who would be as help
less as a babe unborn to assist
himself in any way outside of his
own geniuS-choSen profession. And
yet, she knew that man is Ca
pable Of strange crueltieS where
his passions are concerned and
a little doubt crept into her heart.
HAS anyone arranged about

Cyrus K. was slangy.
well, Lawrence Vane has al
ways been a recluse-very few
people that he really liked or
bothered with. And one thing
he always forbade in his studio,
and that was gossip. So no one
ever told him about 1Sobel, and
if he had heard anything, he
would have discounted it as jeal-

she said, pulling on her gloves
and avoiding his eyes.
Betty" he started toward her.
"YouIl have to call up your paper
o.. you just can't"
1T don't have to call them" she
laughed nervouSly, they just
called me. I have to go right away
and interview Lawrence Vane,"
she lifted wide, tortured eyes to
his. "You can drop me at the

In her chosen career Of news
paper writer she had many un-
savory assignments, but none that
had really come close to her
heart before. This was almost
too much. to have to visit in
his cell, the man she loved hope
lessly. to have to tear apart the
veil that he had drawn over his
sorrow so that a curious public
could stare and gloat.
She gave her name and showed
