It sat-on the dressing table in the bedroom, dinted and twisted out of shape by the terrific leverage that had been necessary to force it, and beside it lay a brass-handled, cast- iron poker which had evidently: been brought from the living-room and used as a make-ghift chisel with which to pry onen the lock. Vance had glanced but casually at the different objects in the rooms as we made our rounds, but when he came to the dressing-table he paused abruptly. Taking out his monocle he adjusted it carefully and leaned over the broken jewel- case. “Most extrordin’ry!” he murmut- ed, tapping the edge of the lid with his gold pencil. “What do you make of that, Sergeant?” Heath had been eyeing Vance with narrowed lids as the latter bent over the dressing-table. “What's in your mind, Mr. Vance?” he, in turn asked. “Oh, more than you could ever guess,” Vance answered lightly. “But just at the moment I was toy- ing With the idea that this stecl case was never torn open by that wholl: inadequate iron poker, what?” ; Heath nodded his head approv- ingly. “So you, tdo, noticed that, did you? . . . And you're dead right. That poker might've twist- ed the box a little, but it never snapped that lock.’” He turned to Inspector Moran, “That's the puzzler I've sent for ‘Prof.’ Brenner to clean up—if he can.
