"So much for that," said, Jane. "Now all you have to do is first to turn each word round and read it ngain backwards. Let,GreE0i'l' do ma Barbour obeyed.

--We put an 'a' into the fourth word," explained Jane, "but you'll .-1-c why in a moment when you mine to it. The 11' isn't sounded, so me parrot missed it, but it be- longs all Ililhl-"
Then, very slowly, Gregory vrnlrd the truth and read as lows:-w

Srtlll much to make a-song about," he said. "and if you turned all the mixer words backwards. why did you leave 'cache' and 'west' "
Rut Gregory was able to explain ths.
"A reasonable question, Nicholas, and the answer is clear. If you mined 'cache' backwards, you would get the letters 'ehcac,' which do not constitute a pronounceahle zound in any strict sense. and sim-
tcrs and you got 'tsew.' Neither a rude Iallormsn nor a primitive parrot could make anything of these vocally, lo Benny Boss. left them as they were. "Now," he con- tinued. "much stands revealed and this feeble enigma. has been ad- vanced one step towards solution, but it would be idle to say that all is transparently clear as yet. Did yhr researches carry you any fur- ther. Jane,"
"Rather." she answered. "I knew it was no use expecting any of you to help, so I did it all myself."
"Push on then," said Tom.
"Not content with making every word go backward, Benny Boss made the whole sentence go back- ward." explained Jane. "The one thing followed the other instantly in my acute mind. though none of you even saw that. New read the definitive and complete edition, Greg-.. .

"Let's go," suggested Tom, Jane agreed.
"But Just one moment more be- fore we start," she said. "Nothing, like simplification when one is' dealing with the masculine brain. Now you've heard how Benny boil- ed down his secret for the pan-ot;l no doubt before he had finished' he was quite sure the bird had! got it right; but here is my last edition.

"Getting an expedition together and plunging into the equatorial depths of the Pacific Ocean? would you suggest anything so mad, Jane?" asked Gregory.
"You're beginning at the wrong end - most unscientific, darling. No: the first thing to do is to col- lats all the known facts. weigh them in the balance and then de-
cide if it's good enough," explained .
Jane. "Needless to say I have col- lated all the known facts."
"There aren't any," declared An- gus, and she pretended disappoint- ment.
"You can say that! And I've had hundreds of cast-iron facts from Tom's own lips. And you heard them, too. This must be the dire results of relations in Aberdeen," mourned Jane.
"Now listen," she continued. "We '
have next to combine all that we know of Benny Bass with what he taught his parrot, pool the result and decide, on the findings, exact- ly what we're going to do about it."
"If you have already decided, as I begin to suspect, Jane. then it is probably going to be our task to modify your decision," declared Mr. Barbour.
"I haven't decided at all," she answered. "It's nothing to do with me. I may know what I'd like to happen, but what does the wish of one lone woman matter? Well, it's like this - Mr. Boss dredged in Lake Titleaea on an understand- ing with the Garcia brothers. Then he made a slip, as the cleverest
