Maybe he's alive—after all these months—down in the jungle somewlere. But why—" His brow drew togetherina frown, ‘little tannéd corrugations, Janice thought, that made him look curiously ltke a boy with a vexing school problem. “—but why a drift bottle. There are no rivers down there to float a bottle out to sea. None mapped as I remember that coast. I wonder...."” Janice felt an odd sensation of excitement and of unease. Frank, she remembered, was an explorer, familiar with jungle trails. Could it be that he was considering that this story in the evening paper might contain a clue that would induce him to leave Hollywood for the south to search for his lost friend? Her heart beat a little faster. Per- haps she could suggest that he go. It would be an admirable solution of her probleém, or rathér the problem lie might prove to be. “But Frank,” she said. “He's dead. They proved that months ago. If he was not drowned when his plane went down into the sea, he must have been killed it it crashed in the jungle. This happene! months ago. It he survived, surely he could have reported—" What was the matter with her? This was not what she had intended to say. She wanted to encourage him to go; yet her words would indicate nothing to him except that she did aid not think there was any use for him to believe Langdon alive—and léave Hollywood to search for his friend. HE continued, “Mr. Myberg is hav- ing a contract drawn for you, [ heard. We are about to begin a pic- ture. You are needed now that Mr. Ortega—" f He tossed the paper onto an adja- cent chesterfield. He sald something to the effect that evening paper had just the bare details of the bot- tle paper—he would know more in the morning. He smiled and stepped toward her: Wad her life depended upon it she coald not have moved. She stood transfixed, looking at him. His arms were @bout her. She suffered him to tiit her chin and kiss her. “Renfember 1ast night? I knew you cared. You don’t want me t go away, do you? Oh, Jahice, I love you so!” 4 Words tumbled from his lips. Strong words, " masculine words. Something about the non-marriage clause in her contract being drivel, that the idea of her working was drivel. He had enough money for both of them. Love. Love in a cottage. A gay ad- venture. He would take her to strange places he had been. Where ‘he'd been ‘lonely. Where they could sit under the 8tars before a camp- re . . . dinner over, and the dishes washed— " She was away from him. The width of the fireplace was between them.
