True to prediction, Mr Allis questioned me very adroitly con- arrangements tea together in her rogm. Remembering the in- junction he had laid upon me before I ojined Mrs, Allis, I answered all her questions fully, even volunteering in- farmation, when all the time I learned to rebuff her coldly for her smiling impertinence. 1 had to struggle all the time, too, against losing myself in speculation as to the woman's motive in inviting me to her rocm and thus pumping me. That it had some bhearing upon her plan—which, unknown to her, I ha discovered—to steal the paintings in the Cosgrove parlor, I was certain But st how shc expected to use her knowledge of our rooms and habits in her scheme I could not see. Of course I realized the reason for her look of satisfaction in that Dicky was a heavy sleeper—in- formation which Dicky had laid great stress upon my giving her. Naturaliy. she would nat like .to have light sleepers in the house when attempt- ing a daring plan like hers. But how the fact that Dicky slept in the back room could interest her was beyond me, although Dicky had warned that she would ask that very thing. What did Dicky suspect? He said just before I left him to go to Mrs, Allis' room, that he was sure he saw through her scheme. [ felt as if I could net wait to get to \nd find out what he meant. “Join Me Tach Night.” I dared not show the impa- tience, however, and it to me | that the tea drinking would never end. Tt was almost unreal to me, this pro- saic room of the Cosgrove farmhouse which Mrs, Allis had canverted into a bizarre den with her oriental draperies and pillows. gorgeous kimono, and in the Jight of the cand with which had displaced the kerosene lamp, Jooked mystic, dangerous. Rut finally. after she had extracted great variety of information from me, she said as she proffered me a third cup of tea: “You don’t know what a Codsend vou have been to me tonight, Mrs Graham.

TROPICAL BIRDS IN FLOCKS AT KEENEY'’S Mabel Nestor's remarkable collec- tion of tropical birds have heen the synosure of many admiring eves at Keeney’s during the week and lovers of beauty and talent in birds of gay plumage who have not been at the playhouse since their advent should not miss the opportunity afforded tonight when the act closes its New Rritain agement. The act itself baffles descfiption. One is trans- ported to the jungles of tropical climes ,the natural environment of Miss Nestor's birds, agd it requires but little strotch of the immagination to see hundreds of these wonderful creatures as they flit about in their wilderness homes. Miss Nestor’s has had excellent results in training the arious species in her flock and the tricks they perform are startling in the intelligence displayed. The other acts on the vaudeville bill are worthy of attention. They will be offered for the last time in New Britain tonight. The last chance to see two other big features will be given tonight, Charlie Chaplin in “In the Rink” and Edna Mayo in “The Return of heading the photoplay program.

Yet it stood empty of the one occupant for it on whom Nicoll had set his heart. Janet would not come. He had just made up his mind to fiill her place with the editor of a ri- val magazine and the gang working under his spur was feeling the full brunt of the displeasure his decision brought with it.
