"You had a ivaltress here. 1 Miss Ellen Juries." Bing begun curtly. "I'd like to speak to her room- mate. if you please."

The proprietors son recognized Bing also. "She's in the dining room getting the table ready for breakfast," he repli-ed- as curily. It's the girl over by the window. The one with the silver in her hands."

"Oh. hello." Mae said amlably.

“Back again? Say. did you find Jonesey that day?" “I-did. but I lost her afterwards. 1' wondered if you could help mo. Did she ever tell you anything a- bout hetsclf?" .

His heart was hammering now. He realized it ould do him no good to ask qu stlons about Ellen Jones here, but he h-ad the snapshot of Joneaey in hrs hand. The store was empty save for a 1on8. lean graybcard behind the counter. He peered at Bing over his spectacles, then studied the picture through them.

"Know who siie is?” he echoed. repeating Blng's questiovn. "Why. I calculate that's Ellen Corliss, isn't lt?"

"Hive you any ides where she is now?’ Bing broke in.

"Why, down in New York. 'last I heard. She's an interior decorator, as they call it. Sounds like sort of
