But, when their plot against Green seemed likely to ucceed, they discovered a place where the will could plausibly be found in spite of the previous search.

H ‘When he reached Corner Cottage Mrs. Netherton was standing in her garden. She smiled at him. “Ah, Mr. Haswell” she said. “When two young people are inj love and don't know it, what should be done about it? Bill and Audrey have been pals so long that they seemed to get to thet brother and sisterly stage. Then this trouble came and they did not | meet often. Audrey came to me, and I could see she was just mis- | erable without Bill. As to Bill—a| sore-headed bear was by compari- son a docile pet. So what should bc’ done?” Jimmie's eyes twinkled. Tt was indeed a comedy that the young| people should dissemble their love for her sake, while she, discerning it at the precise moment when it was officially in abeyance, shouldl‘ be worrying as to how she was to bring them together. “You say Audrey called? Did you | hint at anything?” | “No, I left her in my room a half hour ago and told Bill thers was some one for him. I did not say| who is was, but T pushed him in and locked the door. T am wonder- ing what I ought to do next.” As she spoke, Bill and Audrey suddenly appeared, arm-in-arm, round the corner of the house. “You forgot the window,” he told his mother. “My dear Bill,” she retorted, “ltn took you half an hour to rcmember‘ it “Looks as though I'm in the{ way.” Jimmie was grinning. “T hnvel to the wedding.” | “You shall be!” said Audrey. “But, —if Bill doesn't mind—" i THE END Company) BATTERIES AUTHORIZED SERVICE STATION CAPITAL ELECTRIC COMPANY SECOND AT SEWARD MYSTERIOU Starting Nonday, March 16th Ao BB ST I WS AUTHOR BEAU 7 GESTE | cre‘ates_"'ano'the??f’thrilling\,! . dashing adventure story WAYE
