For this new stenogra- pher, Miss Koll, was from first to last an unsolved mystery. She was baffliag from the first day she stepped Into Varnum's office to this memora- ble day when her actions seemed (0 shatter every foregone conclusion that Clarence Banks had on the subject of women, But besides being a mystery, Miss Bell was fascinating enough to charm & more strongly fortified heart than | MYSTERIOUS MISS BELL! a mystery makes a woman | ELAND, FLA., FEB. 27, 1913. g H !

She was one of those tantalizing quiet young wom- en that countless years ago occasioned the sage remark that “still waters run decp.’ She was, in her work in the office, very friendly, to a certain point, but beyond that point there seemed to be a barrier. There was one excep- tion and this contradiction added to the mystery and made a certain Mon- day after Miss Bell had been in the oflice about two months one of the most memorable in Clarence Banks' career “I say, Miss Bell,” he said. “How about staying down to dinner with me tonight. You give a fellow so lit- tle chance in the office, and I am naturally a friendly sort.” Miss Rell only shook her head and sald, “No, thank you.” Eventually, however, she did with | reluctance consent to go to luncheon with him and Banks could not help noticing the apparent—or was ft feigned >—enjoyment she derived from their chat, nor could he hide from her his admiration for her. Then for a few weeks they drifted into a delightful friendship. She was aware of his admiration for her but In her consciousness of it she kept him at bay. Still Banks could not ! she was with him One day-—Miss Bell's last day in the office — something happened to strengthen Banks' suspicions Mrs. | Varnum, a Kkind-he rted, gray-hatred woman whom Banks had heard his senior partner speak of with the great. est admiration, ailled at the office on her unexpected arrival in the city aft- er several months' absence from home, She went unannounced into her hus- band's office. Banks saw her through his half open door and then in frantie haste Miss Bell rushed upon him through the door that connected his office with that of his senior partner. She regained her composure quickly but on some absurd excuse remained in his room till Mrs. Varnum had gone.
