The safe had been opened, he cried, gasping and wheezing for breath. Miss Tally’s envelope was gone. Nothing else. Only the envelope. The strange.thing about it was that his agitation was not affected. It looked to me to be real.

Of course,” said Francis Tally .carzlessly, as if it didn’t in the least matter. “The point is we don’t need the papers that were in the envelope. There is a perfectly simple way for my sis ter to prove. her identity. And ) suppose she is willing to do so at once and end this uncertainty.” “I'll match your own token, Fran- cis,” said Sue pleasantly. RANCIS whirled sharply to look at her. Even Lorn, who had, as usual, mysteriously turned up at a crisis, seemed to sense something under her voice, and,I caught his speculative, thoughtful look and wondered about it. There bad been something queer about Lorn—some impalpable dif: ference. It had come with Francis Tally’s unheralded arrival, but if was nothing to which 1 had a clue. What had he been dolng—what, perhaps, bad he discovered? There was | certainly . something - very strange back of his guarded dark eyes as he watched Francis Tally. “What do,you mean?” Francis voice went upward a note or ‘wo. *“Only that,” said Sue’still pleas antly. Francis’ “ace slowly darkened. “But, my dear girl,” he said, “it is. you who must prove your iden | tity to me. Don't you think you are reversing matters a little?” “No,” said Sue quietly. There was resultant commotion that brought firmness under her volice, but it was them all—Francis and Sue and Loru and Crethe—into the lounge, still quiet and, curiously, there was a spark of gayety in the glance she 1 felt sure that neither Grethe nor | flung toward me. 1 was interestec Marcus had knowp of the theft of to pote that Francis’ face was lese the envelope ~ue had entrusted to bland. ‘What would he say?

Grethe, with ‘a sharp word tc Lovschiem, vanished, Lovschiem followed her, and Lorn, looking un deejdedly after Prancis, as if wait ing- for. some indication of Francis wishes, sat down beside me.
