What's this nonsense you were burbling about cables and Greta?” He had a habit of shouting every- thing he said, as if he spent most of his existence in a home for the deaf. He was tall and almost incredibly thin, with broad, somewhat stooping shoul- ders, long, artistic-looking fingers and a lean, bearded face. Taverner had not seen him for upward of three years— and yet he could have sworn that he was wearing the same sult of brown tweeds, with its baggy knees and pockets that bulged as if he were accustomed to stuff them with his paraphernalia. “How are you, Dick?” He motioned the other to sit down. “I don't quite know what to say about Grela,” he continued. “She's gone to Italy right enough. I saw her off my- self yesterday morning. I'll let you have a look at that cable presently. It was pretty clear though. It stated that you were seriously ill and wanted to see her at_once.” Haye stroked his beard and glared into the fire. “Extraordinary!” he muttered; “most extraordinary!—Who was it addressed t “SCHOOL OF WASHINGTON Conversational Method.

Thrilling Stery of a Young Secret Service Man's Battle With Crime and Rescue of Girl in Peril. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 5. 1928.° Haye spread out his hands and dropped them on to his knees. “It is very remarkable!” “I should never be surpfised,” pur-| sued the other, “if Greta walked into my study one fine morning with the an- nouncement. that she proposed getting | married on the following day. She might be precipitate, but she'd be frank about it nevertheless. No, Dick, I hate to pose as an alarmist, but there’s more in this confounded business than meets the | eye.” He touched the bell. “You think so, en?" “I'm cure of it. You can bring in the whisky, Jarrett—and tell Mullins to see | that Mr. Haye's bed’s aires He sprang up suddenly and began | acing the room. 2 “You've more than an inkling, Dick, what my job is. A career of this sort brings. one enemies. You could hardly expect it (o be otherwise. These enemies are divided into two classes—those who know who I am and those who would like to know. In a general sort of way, these enemies of mine and myself wage a war of mutual hate without actually ever coming into contact with one an- other, We are the generals, so to speak, and our representative agents serve as cannonfodder. Our warfare is waged along certain fixed lines, and according to certain accepted rules. Occasionally, however, a foe comes into the fleld who treats these conventions with contempt. And it Is a person in this category who, I believe, has spirited Greta away. The painter sat back in his chair, with his legs crossed and the tips of his long fingers pressed together in front of him. “And do you mean to tell me my | daughter has been kidnaped by—' “By a fellow styling himself the Lizar said Taverner bluntly. There was & brief period of silence while Jarrett brought in the tray and set it down, " “Greta,” pursued the baronet, “is due in Rome at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning. T'll wire my fellow there to look out for her. I'll let my men in Ra- pallo know, too. They're immediately interested in the Lizard, and may be in & position to follow him up. He rang the bell again. Jarrett appeared in the doorway. “You rang, sir?” “ “Yes; ask Mr. Baird to come in. “Very good, sir.” A few moments later the door opened admitting & tall, bronzed, gray-haired man, with & pronounced military bear- ing. “I want you to get out two cables in code, Baird, if you don’t mind. One is to go to Lamotte at Rome and the other to Marney:—Miss Haye due Rome ‘Thursday mor{{lll;u 8 u'crl;rck..nuumrdy ‘:‘!‘; tempting to Inap. 0 piw’e‘r,‘ i He glanced at his brother-in- law for approval. “I fancy that should answer our purpose.” Haye nodded. 5 “I have no suggestions to make. Taverner looked at Baird. “We'll get these off as soon as pos- sible. If anything occurs to me before | the morning we’ll have time to wire | again.” . i '“l understand perfectly,” said the other—and the door closed softly. ‘Haye had helped himself to the whisky. “That's not the chap you had when I saw you last,” he remarked. “No. I—er—I was rather unfortu- nate with my lndst secret;ry.‘__flz met with & sudden end, poor chap! Sir Ian did not say what his end had been; he did not want to harrow the other's nerves. Haye was rather like a volcano in imminent state of eruption. “What :nxk‘umwu think it was this— this Lizard, o Taverner had returned to his chair. “I have my reasons.” His non-committal answer evidently annoyed Haye, for he moved restlessly, and two patches of crimson appeared on his cheeks. s “Hang it all, Ian” he burst out: “GQreta’s my daughter, you know, even though I have shoved the responsibility of her upbringing on to your shoulders. 1 think you might be more explicit.’ Taverner moistened his lips. ‘The crater was sending out smoke already! “You've got to be patient, Dick,” he sald. “We're treading on pretty dan- gerous ground. There are lots of secrets that I am prevented from touching upon, even in the privacy of my family circle. I try to make it & habit not to jump to conclusions. When I said that the Lizard had abducted Greta it was not an effort to be dramatic or even wise. My deduction was based on very solid earth—on a series of events which have happened during recent weeks. The Lizard is the only opponent who has ever carried the war into my own territory—into this very flat, in fact. I am as sure as you are sitting opposite me now that this bogus cable, and any- thing that may have occurred after its recelpt, is the work of a man who cherishes s;:lme peculiar grievance against mysell.” gHe took & mouthful of spirit and re~ placed the glass on the table. *This fellow was particularly well in+ formed. He knew of the private stair- case by which my agents come to visit me from time to time; he had a key to the door which leads from it to my study; apparently he was thoroughly conversant with the movements of my | household. It hardly requires a strétch of imaginstion to assume that he was aware thai I had & niece of whom I was very fond. If he desired to hurt me he could él:ve :‘levlsed no better way than to kidnap her.” Haye picked a cigar from the box, tested agalnst his ear, and lit it with- out_troubling to remove the hand. “Who is this Lizard, Tan?" ‘That st precisely what I am trying to fin¢ oul The cigar had tilted to & truculent angle. . Haye only lacked the cap to make him the living image of & famous Actionary skipper. “But your agents—" “Could tell you no_miore about him than I can myself. He is a mystery. We have rio very clear idea as to his motives or his ideals, if he has any.” “A pretty dangerous fellow.’ “Very!"” “Good Lord!” Haye shifted his back from one cof- ner of his chair to the other, and the furrows on his forehead deepened. “But hang it all, Ian.” he blurted out, “this is horrible, horrible! My daugh- ter—lured from your house by a false wire—fallen into the hands of & ruth- less, international desperado of whose {dentity you are unaware * * *! Great heavens, man! What are we going to do? What can we hope to do?” ‘Taverner blinked. B “We'te nat certain yet' that she has been taken. One of my men may be able to put in an appearance before it is too late,” He drew his chair closer to the blaze. “I have a particularly good fellow in Rapallo at this moment, & chap who was.my adjutant in the war, and in whom I have the greatest con- fidence. Hc has tackled the Lizard on two occasions at least, tackled him with his bare fists in face of a new and sin- gularly effective weapon. If we héar no news of Greta in the morning I'll take him off the job he’s on now and in- struct him to concentrate on the Lizard.” ¢ m’The volcano smote the table with his t. “If we hear no news of Greta in the morning,” he shouted, “or if we hear bad news of her, I'll fly to Italy myself, even if it costs me every penny I possess to do sol” Taverner smiled. “I'm_afraid it would all be wasted, Plck You would be absolutely power- less. “Damn it all, Ian! I could try!" Mira's Kitchen. ringing of the door bell sent Mira Bassett hurrying to the door. Mr. Hull stood there smiling, and beyond him was the green truck which con- veyed purchases made at the Hull fur- niture store to the homes for which they were intended. “Good morning, Mrs. Bassett,” said the genial salesman. ‘“We've got some- thing here for you that your husband bought this morning.” Mira tried to smile as the two men bore in the davenport and placed it in her small living room. It was a deep, puffy, inviting thing but out of keep- ing with the rest of the furniture. “There, now!” said Mr. Hull. “How's that? Fine article, en? Your husband has good taste, Mrs. Bassett.” ‘Then he departed, pleased with his sale, leaving Mira alone in thoughtful contemplation of the davenport. A few days before Will had unex- pectedly received some money which he had thought entirely lost—a loan that had outlawed. In his joy at the recovery of the amount he had sug- gested to Mira that they celebrate by getting something for their home that they wanted. Mira had pleaded for a thorough renovation of her Kkitchen. Will had said nothing, but she had that he understood. Instead he had bought this davenport. Mira returned to the kitchen, where she was making cake. Her eyes filled with tears as she looked about the room. The paper was dark with age and soll, the paint worn away with many washings, the linoleum full of holes. But it was the old iron sink and the stove that troubled Mira most. At this moment ashes were sifting down from the grate upon her cake, for the oven had given out. When Will came home at noon he -.xl;ncted praise for his purchase, and Mira gave it dutifully. Flinging him- self at length upon the soft cushions of the davenport, Will grinned at her delightedly. \ “Here's where I shall spend my Sun- day afternoons,” he declared. At lunch he complained of grit on his plece of cake. Mira said nothing. What good would it do now to explain about the oven? All the money Will felt he could afford to use had gone into the davenport. She spent the afternoon trying to reconcile the rest of the room to the new piece of furniture. But even low- ered shades could not conceal the fact that the luxurious davenport was as much out of place as a satin frock at a picnic. ‘That evening Will rested in state with the lamp drawn close to the head of the davenport where he could read. It was Friday evening, too, and usually he took Mira to the movies on Friday evening. But he was too comfortable with his bock to thinw about the movies. Saturday morning, in the midst of her work, a portion of plaster, paper and all, fell from the ceiling. Worst of all, some of it fell into the pan of cooky dough she was kneading. Her dough was spoiled, her hair was full of lime, her eyes smarted. But instead of erying Mira grew angry. She had been Will Bassett's wife for 18 years. As a bride she had found the house just as his mother had left it. Little had been done to its interior since, for although Will earned good wages he was frugal to the verge of stinginess. He also thought what was good enough for his mother surely ought to be good enough for his wife. ‘Without the house looked well enough, for Will kept it painted and he trimmed the grass weekly, For 18 years Mira had kept the machinery of the home running from an imperfectly fitted en- gine room. She had accomplished marvels where many other women would have failed, but the time was past when & piece of tin and a brick in the stove, a strip of old window shade on the ceiling or a plugging of putty in the leaky sink could succeed. Rebellion filled her heart, resolve crystallized, in- spiration dawned. ‘That noon when Will came home to Junch he found the table empty. Mira lay on the davenport. “What's the matter? Aren't you feel- ing well?” demanded Will, aghast. “I turned my ankle. I shall have to keep off my feet for & day or two,” Mira answered. “And lunch isn’t ready! I am sorry about your ankle, but I was planning to go fishing this afternoon with Len Pelers.”. As she did not reply, he went on: “I suppose I'd better stay home and look after things, eh?” “The kitchen's a sight,” sighed Mira, turning her face away. “I'll see to that. Don't you worry, my dear. I'll have everything fixed up in & jiffy. What had you planned to have for lunch.” Will took off his coat and rolled up his. sleeves with an air of gay attack. He could do things about the house if he wanted to, for his long-ailing mother had carefully trained him. He laughed as he tled Mira's apron ut his waist, A moment later came a shout. “What's happened here? I never saw anything like this mess.” He bhad found the wrecked ceiling, the pan of cooky dough full of plaster, the littered floor. He found other things, too, in the course of preparing the meal. The old stove refused to draw and smoked vigorously. He tripped over hole in the linoleum, and for the first time noticed that the sink was a sieve. At lunch he was thoughtful. Imme- diately after Anne Spry came with a dish of gelatin for Mira. Anne was the neighborhood’s by-the-day. “Wish you'd stay and work this aft- ernoon, Anne,” Will said. Anne shrugged her shoulders. “You can't get me in that old kitchen. I couldn’t think of having my neck broken by falling plaster, and, anyway, I like modern imps myself,” she re- torted. Will rubbed his head. HI Presently he got up and left the room abruptly. It was 10 minutes before he returned. “What about those pictures, Dick?" he said. “Those? Oh, they can go hang! I saw the fellow this afternoon, and he’s not overparticular as to time. ‘Taverner rubbed his hands together. “Right you are’” he returned. “I suppose we can take that as settled.” Haye gaped. “Take what as settled?” “We fly to Italy tomorrow. I've just telephoned the air ministry, and they see no reason why it should not be managed.” The volcano had lulled into quies- cence. He just flopped back on the cushions with every trace of eruption mafority of his statements, his recent declamation had been purely hot air. He had never been in an airplane in his life, had never intended to undergo the experience. long succession of poses. daughter seemed in danger he had posed as an anxious parent. “I—er—I suppose it is necessary.” he faltered at length. “I mean—the air ministry and all that—it's an awful lot of bother—especially if nothing serious has happened.” ‘Taverner smiled #gain. “My dear Dick,” he retorted, “what on earth use is it to have a relative by marriage who can pull strings if he doesn't pull 'em sometimes. Your men- tion of a plane gave me an idea. I rather wanted to go to Italy myself. I'd like to see how my chaps are getting on there.

An_hour after Will left the house Mr. Pratt knocked at the door. “Will Bassett sent me up here to do some work,” he said. “He s the | kitchen needs papering and painting. |I'm ready to begin if you can have me, Mrs. Basset! “Why, I can, of course,” Mira ex- claimed happily. “Guess it's about time we had the old house overhauled.” Will said at | noon. “You need a_new range, Mira. Soon as you can walk you better pick out one—and a new sink and linoleum. | Might as well make a good job of it while we're at it.” Mira put her arms about his neck |and laid her cheek to his. Her check was wet. He held her close. And per- | haps in all the 18 years of their mar- riage they had never been so fond or so happy as that moment. “WIlL"” she said pleasantly, “I want to confess. My ankle—" He grinned. “I understand. You played off fine, dear. I don't blame you. I had to have a good lesson.” “That’s what I thought,” Mira said, “when I planned it. But I did fall actually, tripped over a hole in the linoleum that I thought I was used to. | So, you see, I—I had something of a | lesson, too.
