We can probably get some kind of a conveyance to tuke us over" But Mrs, Greenberg thriftily pro- tested. “Na, Na!" she wagged her hand negatively, “That would be imposin’ on good nature, Mr, Woozer, I've heard how they sting you over to that Lone Hill Inn. My sister-in- law stopped there once, and she says all they had was crabmeat salad and tea for three, and when the check come—would you believe {t?—it was thirteen dollars and forty cents, Posit-tve-ly. Not countin' the walter, “Na, Na! If you want to take Miss Da Costa and go, it's all right. We'll wait until you get back. And you needn’t mind about us here. We've got & good lunch in the car.” . The. Princess demurred faint-heart- edly, and Charlie, who wanted to pat Mrs, Greenberg's fat shoulder for this show of tact and sound common- sense, pretended to accept her de- cision with reluctance. “Go ahead, Elsie,” urged Miss Schupp and Miss Mc¢Carthy, There was no question in their minds that their frienid had made the conquest of an eccentric millionaire, ‘and they were generously inclined to help the good cause along. Juarez Charlie, fearing a change of mind, hurried the Princess into the garage-keeper's flivver, and they drove away with the shock-headed boy act- ing as chauffeur. His proximity and willingness to overhear everything that was saig permitted nothing but the most cas- ual conversation, mostly in the nature of badinage on Charlie’s part, But under his lively banter he ne: r white brow with roail “Say/' her the Ranger girl paused, tapping ¥ face elearing; “is k" sle Charlie, unable te follow her, leaned nearer across the table, “Rut what makes you think thal “Because | simply ecouldn't place that woman as anything but a trained nurse. Bhe acted like she'd heen horn in & white eap, and learned her letters off a fever-chart.” The slight pallor of excitement showed through Charlie's dark skin, He reached for the carage, and filled the Princess’' glass, “A tall, blond woman ?" He tried the ruse he had used on the garage- keeper, “No; medium-sized and dark, At- tractive, She wanted to exchange it for a prim, little toque, Well, the long and short of it was that 1 agreed to have a duvetyn toque made up for her, and send It to her at the hos- pital” Charlie lowered dentially, Mrs. Ranger has not been well, Dut don't tell any one that she's in & hospital," “Oh, that's it? Then I did get It right.”” 8he showed a natural pride in having her surmises confirmed, “You say the woman left her ad- dress?" He looked a little worried, his voloe confl. CHARLIE BEGAN TO CONSULT HER ABOUT THE MENU. “We have to be so careful about any- thing getting out.” “Yes; she wrote it down for me: Doctor—Doctor-— something’s —Sani- tarium, Barcelona, Long Island. Wait a minute! I've got the name, Bristow. Doctor Bristow's Sanita- rium,” Charlie felt an insane impulse to get up and wave his arms and shout. ‘| The Princess was a mascot. He called the waiter, and begged forgot his purpose. Yet even altcr they reached the Inn and were seated at a small table, the gentle flattering third degree which awaited the princess had still to be deferred. In that expensive environment, with groups and couples of the new-rich al labout them, and one of those in- timately attentive waiters hovering over them, Miss Da Costa became self-consciously absorbed in her own impersonation—the finished cosmo- polite viewing the multitude through a non-existent lorgnette. In order to recapture her wander- ing attention, and also to get rid of the irritation of a persistently buzzing fly, Charlie began to consult her about the menu, ordering so prodigally that she gasped and remonstrated. Elsie seemed to be _turning some- thing over_and over In her mind. Suddenly $he came back to the pres- ent, all vivacity, her blue eyes spark- ling. “Do you know, I've just been think- ing about that hat, and I believe I've struck it at last. Listen.” She made 1ittle spears at him with her fork. “Hope Ranger's not missing at all. She's going into musical comedy or the pictures ,and this hullabaloo is all & publicity stunt. I'm right?” Charlie’s expression committed him fo nothing. “You think fast, little one. Go on, and Il tell you whether. you're get- ting warm or not.” “Well, as I take it, Hope didn't like your choice; so she tossed it over to her mald, and the maid saw a chance to make on it.and brought it back. I suppose it was the maid, al- though I'd have sworn—" She - i : Home-made Remedy Stops Coughs Quickly The Dost oo h medicine you ever used. A famlly supply easily and quickly msde.

There was nothing too much he could do for the Princess, Then, with the walter suggesting this and that costly honne-bouche, he made an excuse and hastened to the telephone to call up Ranger, at his country-house in Westchester, CHAPTER XVII, “Lorry, they got away' with it Charlie broke the news without pre- amble as soon as he had Ranger on the wire.

Char- lie's volce suppiied the exclamation point. “That’s raising the ante with a vengeance, Still, what else—-" “I won't do it, T can’t raise that amount of money on a moment's no- tice."” Ranger went up in the air. “I've got to talk to you tonight, at once. We can't get anywhere over the wire, You'd better come out here to the house.” To Charlie's quick ear, It seemed as if there were a slight shift in the telephine connection. He imagined he could detect through their conver- sation the sound of some one else breathing. “Hold on just a second, Lorry. Have you heard anything new from Philadelphia?"” The question was a code warning arranged between them to indicate that some one was listening in. An interval of about two minutes passed, and then Ranger spoke again. “You were mistaken. all the extensions, and the only per- son who could have done any eaves- dropping was Fitch, the footman, who was down in the hall, and he was twenty feet away from the instru- ment and half-asleep. Anyhow, it's all right now. I've shut off all the switches except this one, and put Mary L.ou on guard. Besides, there's nothing to say, that the whole world couldn't hear.” “Isn't there?"” Charlie couldn't keep the elated ring out of his voice. “‘Well.let me tell you, Lorry, that I've dug up'd great new clue, the most promising yet. In fact, I don’t think it's too much to say that I ex- pect to have Hope definitely located by tomorrow."” “No,” as Ranger stormed him with excited questions; “I'm not going to say a word more over the telephone.” “But, Charlie; listen!” Ranger en- treated. “You're not going to play a lone hand again, are you? Ior heaven's sake, remember what hap- pened today. Show a little reason; at least come here to the house and talk it over with me.” Charlie’s mobile face hardened as he listened. “Sorry, Lorry,” he an- swered crisply. “But this requires quick action.” And deaf to Ranger's expostula- tions, he hung up the receiver. With his old confident swagger, he made his way back to the Princess. “It's been lovely, Mr. Juarez'" she said; “but I'm afraid I ought to go now . They'll be waiting for me, you know." “With everything she did, she in- creased Charlie's good opinion of her. Itching to be off on his qiést, he had been wondering how long courtesy would compel him to sit there before he could, suggest leaving. Charlic felt that he had more than got his money's worth. ~ In his large and generous mood, he gave the waiter a princely tip. Also, he remembered liberally the hat-boy, the door-man and the fellow who opened the door of the flivver.
