A couple of steps brought her to the window, and ehe pressed closely to it, Tistening, and wished she dared to open it. There was no sound from outside. She leaned her forchead against the &lass, and wondered how many years Bad passed since the morning. It seemed impossible for this day to come to an snd Then quite suddenly a key turned in the lock, and the door opened, not wide- 1y, but as one opens the door of a room where some one is asleep. A man's head was silhouetted against the hall light. Part of his shoulder showed in a dark overcoat. He spoke, and a hint of brogue beneath a good deal of American twang informed Jane that this was her official I‘!her. : “Are you awake, Renata?’—and, as he asked the question, a second man came up behind him and stood there listening. 3 “Yes,” said Jane, muffiing her voice with her handkerchief. * He hesitated a moment, and then said: ‘Well, good-night to you"—and the other man, speaking over his shoulder, id in an easy, cultivated voice without any accent at all: “Pleasant drcams, Jane’s “Good-night” was just audible and no more, but obviously it satisfied the two men, for the door was shut, the Xey turned and withdrawn, and pres- ntly hali light went out, and the darkness was absolute and except where the midnight ¥ Just less black than the interior of the om. After what scemed a long, long time, Jane undressed and got to bed. Tt was strange to grope for and find Renata’s neatly folded nightdress. Presently she lay down, and pres- ently she slept. Time ccased; the day was over. She woke suddenly a few hours Jater. Tt was still dark. She came broad awake at once, and sat up in bed as if soma one hud called to her. er mind was full of one horrifylng thought. The plank—what 'with the plank?

Jane got out of bed, shivering. vent to the window, opened it eaned out. The yard, mews, nd parapet—all were veiled in the jsame thick dusk. She strained her ves, but it was impossible to distin- uish anything. There was nothing fror it but to cross that horrid little Jhall again, open the window and make sure. With the key in her hand and min- jgled rage and terror in her heart she felt her way to the door, opened it roiselessly and ssed barefoot He window The hasp was stiff, creaked and the window stuck Recklessness took possession of [Jane.

The crash with which the plank landed seemed to have deafened r, but as the vibrations died away e heard, sharp and unmistakable, the click of a latch and hurrying foot- eps. The mnext moment her door was ened and her light switched on. Riuck as thought. her hand was over hr eyes and the sheet up to her chin. Molloy stood in the doorwa and jrond him the othe 'What's doing?

She was nata Molloy under lock and key, @ 1n front of her = tched a day t might be even more crowded th dventure than yesterday he jumped out of bed, and as she ssed her eyes brightened nd her rage rose.

Her baz worried her a tle, but it was just such a plain hther bag as any one might pos- [ss. She ransacked it carefuily and lowned over an envelope ldressed Miss Jane Smith. What in the lorld was she to do with it? There were no matches, so it could bt be burned. After some thought ho soaked it in water, scratched the lame to shreds with a hairpin, and, umpling the wet paper into a ball, bssed it out of the window.

Obviously Molloy's fare- well was not to be sald in private. Jane looked at him with some curl- osity—a tall man, strongly built, with a bold air and a florid complexion. It was he who had opened the door, and he stood still, holding the handle and looking, not at Jane, but over her shoulder. For this she felt grate- ul. “Well, well, then, I'm off,” sald Mol- loy. “You'll be a good girl and do as you're bid, and I'll be having you out to keep house for me in less than no_time.” From what she had seen of Renata, Jane fancled that a sob would meet the occasion. She therefore sobbed und pressed her handkerchief to her ey here, there,” said Molloy, hastily. He bent and deposited an awkward kiss upon the top of her head. Then he took his hand from the door and gone. The lift gate clanged, and Jane realized that the real adventure had begun, The man by the window threw the end of his cigarette into the fireplace and came toward her. “‘Parental devotion is a beautiful thing, isn’t it, Miss Renata? Suppose we have some breakfast.” A meal, a proper meal, enough to eat! As she passed into the dining room and beheld a ham, coffee, and boiled eggs, Jane felt as If she could confront any one or anything. Be- sides, the first trick was hers, In the full light of da: d under th old, pale eyes, she had passed as Renats She allowed herself to sigh and dab her eyes, and then—oh, how good was the rather stale bread, the Lon- don egg, and the indifferent ham. The man watched her quizzically. As she finished her second cup of coffee, he remarked that she had a good appetite, and there was some- thing in his tone that cast a chill upon the proceedings. Jane pushed back her chair. ‘ve finished,” she said. ‘Well, then,” said the man. “I think we must talk. Yes, sit down again, please. I won't keep you very long.” Jane did as she was told. Well. Molloy’s gone,” he said. “You know what that means? He's washed his hands of you. Just in case—just in case, you've been relying on Mol- loy, T would Ifke to point out to you that his own position is none to s cure. The firm he works for has not been entirely satisfied with him for some time. It is, therefore, quite out of the question that he should influ- ence any decislon that may be come to with regard to yourself. His going off like this shows that he realizes the position and accepts it. Self-pre ervation is Molloy's trump suit, first, last and all the time. I shouldn't ad- vise You to count upon trifles like parental devotion, or anything of that sort. In a word—he can't help you, but T can.” The man speke, and a his features. “Just be frank.” he went gn. “Tell me what you really heard, ahd Il see you through.” Jane let her oyes meet his. That smile had puzzled her: it was so spon- taneous and charming, but it did not reach his ecyes. | She looked and found Yhem cold and opaque, and as she looked, she saw the pupils narrow, expand, and then arrow again. He got up from his chair, walked to the mantlepiece, stopped for a light to his cigarette, and came bpck again with a thin blue haze of smoke about him. “Perhaps T haven't heen altogether frank with you,” he said. “That little romance of mine about a firm of chemists who employ your father you really didn't believe it? No, T thought mot. The fact is, that first night T took you for juét a schoolgirl, and one can’t tell schoolgirls every- thing. But.now, now I'm talking to you as a woman. T can't tell you everything, even o, but I can tell you this. Tt's a Government matter, a most imnortant one, and it is vital that 1 should know just what you overheard.” Jane looked down. “I don’t understand,” she said in a low voice. “I was dreaming and T waked up suddenly. There was a screen in front of me, and some one on the other side of tlfe screen called out very loud, ‘The door, the door! That's what I heard.” She felt the pale eyes upon her face, Then with an abrupt movement the man came over to her. “Stand up,” he said. Jane stood up. “Look at me.” Jane looked at him. After what seemed like a very long time, he threw out his hand with an impatient gesture. It struck the table edge with a sharp rap, the spring that held his wrist watch gave, and the watch on its gold curb flew off and fell on the floor behind Jane. She turned, glad of an excuse to furn, and bent to pick it up. The back of the watch was open; her fin- mers caught it and closed it Instantly, but not for nothing had she told Henry that she had gimlet eyes. The back of the watch contained a photo- graph, and Jane had seen the photo- graph before. Henry's volce sounded in her ears. “It ‘was done from Amory’s portrait of her, in 1915—the vear of her marriage.” . umber Two, the man in the fur coat, Remata's “worst of them all,” had in the back of his watch a pho- tograph of Lady Heritage! Jane lald the watch on the table without giving it a second glance. leaned forward sudden smile as he changed CHAPTER VI As the wateh slid back into its place beneath his shirt cuff, the man spoke with an entire change of man- ner. - “Well, Miss Renata, that was all very sHUff and businesslike. You mustn’t hold it up against me, because 1 hope we're going to be friends. Don’t you want to know your plans?” Jane looked at him with a little frown, “My plans “What is going to happen to you. Oh, please, don't look so grave! It's nothing very dreadful. You have heard of Sir Willlam Carr-Magnus?” “Yes, of course,” said Jane., She hoped that she looked innocent and surprised. “Well,” sald the man in the fur coat, “T happen to be his secretary, and that reminds me, T don't beljeve ou know my name. Your father and his friends use a ridiculous nickname, which sticks to me like a burr 4 but let me introduce myself—Jeffre Ember, and your friend, if you wiil have me.” The charming smile just his face, and then he said in a quict, serious wa r William’s daughter, Lady Heri- tage, has commissioned me to find_her an amanuensis—companion—no, that'’ not quite right either. She doesn't want a trained stenographer, or a young person with a business train- ing, but she wants a girl in the house—some one who'll do what she's told, write notes, arrange the flow- ers.” . . . T dare say you can guess the-sort of thing. She is wil- ling to_give vou a trial, and your father has agreed. As a matter of I'm taking you down there to- touched sald Jane, because she seemed expected to say something, and for the life of her she could not think of anything else to say. (Continued in.
