There must be no possibility of its leaking out. You understand?” “Quite so. Sir John, quite so,” re- plied the manager. “I have been con- ducting this agency for over twenty years, and never yet has a patron of mine charged me with having given his secrets away. We are as inviolate as the grave, sir—as the grave ijtself.” “I have met with some losses of late in buying foreign bonds,” observed Sir John as he drummed on the desk with his fingers. “1 see, sir.” “And at the present moment I am a little pressed for cash.” “That is liable to happen to all ot us, sir.” e should'nt be, if I didn't want to buy Lord Benson's steam yacht. He offered it to me at a low price last week and I as good as closed the sale with him. I don’t know that it's a good Investment, but I rather passed my word, you know.” “Exactly, Sir John,” smiled the man- ager, who knew that his patron was lying like a trooper all the time, As a matter of fact, Sir John, though a man of nearly 50, and supposed to be staid and uncorruptible, had be- come struck with a music hall singer and had \quite lost his good sense. He wanted money to carry out somec ex- travagant wishes of hers: and the steam vacht business was all in h's eve. ““My wife, you know,” continued Sir John, “has diamonds to the value of £15,000. If she would lend them to me for a few months I could raise £7000 on them and get throligh and pay her back all right when certain invest- ments mature. Yes, I could do that, but you see—you know—* “But yvour lady objects, to them 2 “That is the point. sir—that is the point.

Three years previously Sir John's wife had been visiting at a country house where a robbery had occu d and her memary for faces being guod. she had spotted him almost at once. She told him so to his face, and pin- ned him down to it. and he was mak- ing ready to go and spare himself her contempt when she asked for a few words in private with him. The con- ference took place on a bench on the lawn with games going on all about them. “In order that you may understand what I want’' began the woman, must confess to you that I some “Certainly, my Lady 5 is not so unusual nowadays.” “T have a friend who has given me a tip on certain stocks, and if T only had £5000 to invest T am sure of a great return within a few weeks.” “But there is Sir John.” “He does not believe in women speculating. He would not give me a dollar. “You could quietly pawn your dia- monds.” “But he would be sure to miss them. No, T must try some other way.
