Outside the cotton belt, it costs

No, she couldn't tell! Later,
when Tim and Eleanor were safely

real truth.

repeated.
She met his searching gaze with
wide eyes of innocence. "Game ?
I'm not the athletic type. I'm a
frightfully poor sport at games"

her. I'm giving you chance to
explain yourself, and it's fairly
plain you don't want it. That's

but you can't pun this tricky stuff.
It may intrigue some men. 1t

CHAPTER so

Z IMPULSIVELY, bre a tn held,
Gay slipped into the nearest chair
as Wayne played the piano. She
would go before Wayne noticed
her. But for a moment at least,
she wanted to listen. Gay loved
music deeply, and though her APP
probation was untaught, it was
none the less keen.
Fascinated, she watched his
hands. Long fingers, sensitive and
powerful. Gifted hands, able to
design the intricate mechanism of
a motor; able to bring music,
fragile as star-dust, from the key
board of a piano.
Something told her that Wayne
knew she was there, listening. But
the music held her spellbound. She
couldn't go. She didn't want to
go. In the back of her mind, Gay
realized she was showing lament
able lack of pride. To all appear
ances she was seeking him out,
when he, with pointed Indifference,
had avoided her since their brief
encounter this morning.
She didn't care, at this precise
moment, what Wayne thought of
her. Nothing mattered except the
music that filled the room.
He played on for time, appar-
ENTITY absorbed in his own perform
Ance, as he modulated from Chopin
TO Ravel, and from Ravel to the
sophisticated modernism of George
Gershwin. Then he brought his
hands down in a series of descend
ing chords, and rose quietly to his
keet.
II hope you enjoyed the concert.
There's no charge on Tuesdays or
Saturdays"
His f1ippant, unfriendly speech
disconnected Gay, who also had
come to her feet. "I did enjoy
your playing, very much" she an
severed, with disarming sweetness.
I'm sorry if I disturbed YOU"
"You didn't. I was playing for
my own amusement, and to pass
the time till cocktails are served"
He caught her hand as she moved
toward the door, "Wait a minute.
I'D like to talk to you."
II must CO." Gay insisted, even
while she settled back in the chair.
t'1'm supposed to meet Tim"
LET him wait. I said wanted
Ito talk to you"
Inwardly, Gay was hating her.
Iself for the singing ecstasy she
felt at his physical nearness, but
she managed to affect a profound
interest in the smoke rings from
'Wayne's cigaret, watching them
while they dissolved slowly in the
still air.
Last Saturday night" Wayne
began, sharply. why did you lead
jnne to think-What's the point of
ut all? What sort of game do you
think you're playing, anyway"
For a wild moment, the truth
ltrembled on her lips. Why not tell
Wayne the whole story about her
arrangement with Tim to awaken
Eleanor's jealousy? He'd under
stand, then, why she had chosen
Tim, instead of himself, to drive
her home from the penthouse
iparty.
But she had agreed whole heart
eddy to Tins proposition. She
must go through with it, even if
Wayne became her open enemy.
Open enmity, she told herself,
would be easier to bear than his
variable moods: now tenderness
and passion, now edged sarcasm
or cold reserve that shut her

case of his entire career.
It all started in a comparatively
innocuous manner, Mr.. Christopher
Pippet, an American gentleman, is
bringing suit to presume the death
Of the Earl Of Winsborough, to
whose title and estate he claims to
be heir presumptive. But Mr.. Pip
pet is unfortunate in his choice OF
legal adviser and falls into the
hands of a shady lawyer who tries
to fake the evidence and thereby
exposes himself to a criminal
charge.
DIR. Thorndyke Is consulted. He
Is looking for fraud, and not only
detects this, but also discovers q
clue to a notorious robbery, and
later, to mysterious murder.
Meanwhile, the peerage claim is
settled; but afterward there Is q
further and more thrilling surprise
for the reader.
THE ROBBER BARRONS-

robber bafons? They were the men
who seized power in America after

they "built up the country" devel-
