TheAstonishing Adventure of Jane Smith _(Continued from Yesterda s Star.) He went on looking at Titten. At last he said: Jane, 1 think 1 must Bomething in confidence. Sir William, as you know, is conducting impor- tant experiments for the government. How important you may perhaps have gathered from the extraordi- nary precautions which are taken to Prevent any leakage of information. These experiments have resulted in two valuable discoveries represented, for purposes of official correspond- ence, by the terms formula ‘A’ and formula ‘B’ Within the last week ‘We have had indis ble proof that formula ‘A' has offered ot a foreign power is the reason for my presence here ow these are facts. et them sink into your mind, then read over what 1 have Jjust| taken down and tel how vou square those facts Rena statement Jane picked up the notebook at the written words facts in the forefront and remarked candidly “It does your rather, it Henry assented. silent. book " ver mm(l .‘lvuul our hr-adi o tell .‘nu the rest of it isn’t only what Renata heard: it's the things L.,n I\:\‘yr happening—Ilittle things in a way, but Henry, sometimes 1 ) think’ they are more frightening just because they are little things. mean, supposing you know you' ing to be executed, you b S up, and it's all in the day’s \\nr\\ but if you are out at a dinner party and you suddenly find poison in the soup, or a bomb in the middle of the table decoration, it's . . . well, it's unex- pected—and—and perfectly beastly Jane's voice broke just for an in- stant. Henry's hand came quickly through the torchlight, and rested on both hers. It was a satisfactorlly large and heavy hand. She told him about her interview With Ember at the flat, and one by one she marshaled all the small hap- penings which had startled and alarmed her Henry waited finished. Then he said: lq. This lip-reading—you know, my dear girl, it's a chancy sort of thing; it seems to me that there are un- limited possibilities of mistake.” “Some people are much easier to read from than others. Lady Heri- tage is very easy. I'm sure I was not mistaken; she was saying, ‘It she overheard anything, would she have the intelligence to be dangerous? That is what I ask myself,’ and she sald, ‘Despise not thine enemy,’ and ‘Anything but Formula “A."' Now Mr. Ember very difficult. T can’t really make him out at all. His lips don’t move. It's no use not believ- ing me, Henry. Look here, I'll show you.” She caught up the little torch, and turned the light upon his face. Say something,” she commanded. Henry's lips formed the words, « *Jane, T love you very much indeed"— \and Jane switched off the light. “Henry, you're a perfect beast! Play fair,” she said, in a low, furlous Wwhisper. Sorry. again.” Jane allowed the ray to light up Henry’s mouth and chin. The hand that held the torch was not quite steady. This may have been the re- sult of anger—or of some other emo- tion. As a result the light wavered & =ood deal. Henry's lips moved and Jane read mloud, “A sleuth should never lose its temper.” Henry's hand caught the little shak- ng one that held the torch, and gave it a great squecze “How frightfully clever vou are, and—oh, Jane, what a goose!’ T'm not,” sald Jane. “But don't you see that, with Re- nata’s story in your mind, you would be looking out for things? You couldn’t help it.” “What do you think, then, Heritage saying that Mr. verdict was inclined to be ‘Guilty, but recommended to mercy, whereas she sald that she hersel? doubted the guiit, but that if she did not, she ‘would have no mercy at all? Do you know, that frightened me almost more than anything. I don't know why. That wasn't lip-reading; I beard the words with my own ears.” “But—don't you see—"" He paused. *Let's get back to facts: Formula ‘A’ has been stolen and offered for sale. Renata, undoubtedy, overheard some- thing relating to Formula ‘A’ Now, supposing Mr. Molloy or one of his friends to be the person who is doing the deal, don't you see that the pos- sibility of Renata having overheard something compromising would be suflicient to account for a good deal of alarm? “If Molloy and his friends had stolen Formula ‘A’ and were trying to dispose of it, it would naturally be of the highest importance to them to find out how much Renata knew, &nd to take steps which would insure her silence They would almost cer- tainly try and frighten her—that's how it seems to me. “Then where does Mr. #n?" said Jane. “He w *“Are u sure?” “Renata described him,” sald Jane. #She sald he was the worst of them L he knew No. But breath of eertainty ‘'she called in the fur coat The of him as Number Two. “But vou don’t know Ember For a moment Jane felt that she was sure of nofhing; then, with a pwift revulsion. her old fears, sus- picions, certainties, received vigorous Feinforcement Henry,” she said, “listen. You're on the wrong scent—I know you are. I can’t tell you how I know it, but ¥'m quite, quite sure. If you were an narchist, and wanted to produce gome horrible thing that would smash clvilization into atoms, how would you set about it?—where would you go? Don't you see that the very safest place would be somewhere ike this, somewhere where vou could earry on your experiments under the cover of real experiments? It's like the caterpillars that pretend to be gticks—what do you call it?—protec- tive mimicry “Jane! id Henry m sure that's what they have done. T'm sure that there is some- thing dreadful going on in this house. IAnd if you can’t square what Renata theard with what you know of For- mula ‘A, why, then I belleve that there must be more than one Formula #A’ Don't you see how cunning it would be for them to take the name pf a real Government invention to cover up whatever horrible thing it fs that they are working at?” There was a dead silence. “Another Formula ‘A’?" said Henry, elowly. Then, with an abrupt change of manner “Leave it—all of it—and tell me gome things 1 want to know. Sir Wil- Yiam, for instance—he was put out at my coming down, I know-—but what is he like as a rule? He does not slways drink as much as he did to- pight, deos he?” 'unnkmdm Henrgy X thdnk he 1 what he had = tell you with stare Henry's her mind, set of head go round doesn’t They both sat Then Jane put down the note- me It until she had quite Wasn't it all right?

But that's not strikes me most The thing 1 is that he do 't seem to do any work. Mr. Ember is supposed to be his secretary, but he ally does all his work with Lady Heritage. She goes on all the time. time. She spends hours in the labora- tories. 1 believe she works there till ever so late, but Sir William just sticks in his study and broods. 1 thought how strange it was from the very first day. “And Lady Heritage? Put all this mysterious business on one side and tell me what you make of her?” | Jane hesitated | he’'s—she’s disturbing. 1 think she has too much of everything, and it seoms to upset the balance of every- thing she touches. She's too beauti- ful for one thing, and she has too much intellect, and too much, far too much, emotion. I think she is dread- fully unhappy too, with the sort of unhappiness that makes you want to hurt somebody else. You know what she sang this eve I think real 1d would to That's suddenly; least that—what's v feels like that, a smash—everything. ' Jane broke off voice dropped to the thread, “Oh, what" that?” As she spoke like why her hand met Henry on the switch of the torch. The light went out Jane clung to one of the hard, strong fingers as she listened with'all her ears. She heard a foot- step, light and unmistakable, and it stopped upon the threshold There were about 20 really terrifying silenc and then th the door turned slowly Jane heard the creak of the hinge, the minute rattle of the latch. Then the handle was released. but slowly and with the least possible noise. There was another silence. Jane pinched Henry as hard as she could, and though this, of course, re- lieved the strain she felt dreadfully afraid that she would scream unless something broke through this dread- ful quiet. Something did break through it next moment, for there came a low knocking on the door, and with the first sound of that knocking Jane recovered herself. With an extraor- dinary quickness and lightness she was on her feet and out of the cup- board, the cupboard was shut, and Jane, her shoes noiselessly discard- ed, was sitting on the side of a rumpled bed, a fold of the sheet across her mouth, inquiring in sleepy, muffled accents: “What is {t? Who's there?" The knocking had gone on steadil Now it stopped, and a voice said, “It is I, Lady Heritage. Open the door.” Jane threw back the bedclothes so as to cover the chalr at the bed- foot—a chair upon which there should have been a neatly folded pile of clothes—pulled off her stockings, and took the key out of the dressing-table drawer. “Oh, what is it?" she said, and fum- bled at the lock. Next moment the door was open, and she saw Lady Heritage in her white linen overall and headdress, the latter pushed back and showing her hair. Lady Heritage saw a startled girl in a red flannel dressing gown. Be- tween the moonlight and the light from the passage there was a sort of dusk. Lady Heritage put her hand on the switch, but did not pull” it down. Instead, she sald quickly “I saw a light under the door. you {117 Jane rubbed her eves. “A light?” she said. Raymond crossed the room quickly her seconds of Are and felt each of the electric bulbs. “A light?" sald Jane again. Lady Heritage went back to the door and turned all ths lights on. “Do you always lock yourself in?" she said. “And why did You take the key out of the door?” “Was it wrong? They say that if you lock your door and put the key away, even if you walk in your sleep, vou don't go out of the room. I shouldn’t like to walk in my sleep in a big house like this and perhaps wake up in a cellar or out on the terrace.” Lady Heritage did.an odd thing. Something flashed across her face as Jane was speaking, and she put both hands on the girl's shoulders and pulled her round so that she faced the light. Jane met, for a moment, a most extraordinary look. It did not seem to go through her as Mr. Ember's scrutiny had done, but it shook her more. " She looked down and said shakily: “What is it? Oh, please tell me if I have vexed you—oh, please.” Lady Heritage took her hands away. “I had forgotten you walked in your sleep,” she said. “I don't like locked doors as a rule, but I suppose you had better keep yours fastened. 1 shouldn't like you to walk into the sea and get drowned, or break your neck falling off the terrace. Get back to your bed. I'm just going to mine. I've been working late.” She went out, and it was a long, long time before Jane, who had heard the soft footfalls die away in the dis- tance, dared open the door and take a hasty look along the corridor. It was_quite empty. After another pause she went to the cupboard door and opened it. The flooring stretched unbroken: there was no square hole and no Henry. She sat down on the floor, hesitated, and then knocked lightly. Under her very hand a board rose with a little jerk—a line of light showed, and Henry's volce said softly: ‘All clear?” Yes, be quick; I daren't wai “Who was it “Lady Heritage.” What did she want?” “I don’t know. She said she saw a light. Henry, she frightens me, she really does.” The board rose a lttle higher. “A sleuth who gets frightened is no earthly: said Henry firml “Now, look here, Jane, I can get you out of this quite easily if you want to come. You are the only person in the house whom I haven't inter- viewed. Mr. Ember sald that of course I shouldn't want to see you, as you did not get here until after the leakage must have taken place. I made no comment at the time, but it is perfectly open to me to insist on seeing you, to say that I am not sat- isfled with the interview, and to take you back to London for further in- terrogation.” Henry had opened the trapdoor about a foot.” His face, lighted from below, looked very odd with the chin almost resting on a board at Jane's feet and the trap held up by one hand and only just clearing his hair. Jane would have wanted to laugh if his last suggestion had appalled her less. “Oh, you mustn't,” she said. “If you do that, it's all up. Mr. Emger would never, never, never allow you to interview me. He'd be afraid of what I might say, and he'd find some awful way of keeping me quiet. As to letting me go off to London with you, well, if we started we'd certainly never get there. And, oh, Henry, please, please go away. I'm sure they suspect something, and If she comes again, or if he comes—oh, Henry, do wor (Continued In Tomorrow's Star.) . Leginska Gives Concert.
