Peter Benedict X "I l-m. and so they are, or I wouldn't have reached the same conclusions myeeit in something like the eerne time. Superinten- ‘dent Barker spent days trying to make the whole thing mean some» thing much more complicated, and I must say he succee‘ “ in ovoiv. lng several messages equally plausible. But after all. why shouldn't. it mean what it seems to mean? They could not gueas it would ever so astray. They cook all due precautions and a few over; but Why Slwuld anyone human assume that this slip of paper ehould go astray. and fell into our bends? I'm eick o: trgyin‘ u, rind eocret meanings.

"Let's! All we have to do le get into their inmost circle. ask to see Q their list o! locations suitable for‘ 5701191118 drills by parachute. ask for e regiment o! police end e tew dozen army seerchilghte. and welt tor the 11d to blow oft the copper. Simple!"

"I wasn't being u obvious u ell that," said Peter meekiy. "I wee merely thlnking- Oh, blow! I Clnlt get it clear yet. Come an. end let's dance. I'll tell you what I mean. ea soon as I know my- self."

He heaved himself out. o! the cushions. and held out a hand to her. Taking it. her brows knit in ' e worried trown. she murmured. halt to herself: “More Collbri — Mere Cob-Would you say that was the same person? I mean-the password to the mariajuuna. und the signature to the orders?"

"I've been considering they It may not be a person. It may be e convenient. password. as it was in the Green Scorpion. Did you ever think oi that?"

They danced the oncsiep 0.1:. Peggy was surprised to find now tired she was. and was not sorry when he observed the increasingly recurrent phenomena of her yowns, and laughed at her. and took her hcme to the Maibro.

It had been. at any rule. a [vult- ful sort oi tiny. Tlicy were n good day's journey nearer to thcrr ob- jccilvc. and had lost no ground themselves. since Peggy's hon;- Iides had not been in question. But it all seemed a little like a dream as she lay half-asleep I against Peter's shoulder in the taxi.

. “Where shell I see you tomor- row?" she asked as they parted. . “I don't. quite know. I'll ring you ‘first thing 111 the morning." l She agreed slccpllv, and sai-l l goodnight to him_ with o contented imind. But she was hardly prepar- ‘ed to be awakened by the ringing ' of the telephone bell at quite such an unearthly hour -ior a Mayfair- lish, blase courtship such as {liens was supposed to be —-a.s halt-past |elght in the mornl-ng. She had slept. heavily, and awoke to the lahriil sound with a suddcrmcss which was startling

She reached for the instrument without getting up. Not Peter's voice. but the peremptory squawi: a! a parrot. saluted her ear. Sh almost dropped the thing in h as- tonishment; almost but. not quite. Fer-hops it was the flashing out 3f a vivid dream which kept her mind so open and receptive now. Any- thing could have seemed ordinary and real after that wild other- worldly experience. She replied to the unseen parrot sweetly Lhat yes, this was Eleanor Vandeleu. 1

"So sorry, my dear," said the parrot shrilly, “to call you up at this unearthly hour. But you got about a0 extensively, don't you. that. it's really rather difficult ir. be sure of finding you at any par- ticular ii-me in any particular i1la~c I thought I'd be sure for once."

“You bet I got around all I can. said Miss Vandeieur dcmuvcl; "That's what I'm here for. BuL--. oh. the foal I am. of course I know who ll. is. Lady Cowic! Ycs. bill. you sec, I'm still in bed. and only lust. awake --li I am awake."

Both ends ot the wire chuckled though Lady Co\vle‘s cilucklc was more oi a screech. Something in Peggy's mind nagged that she hzci i forgotten it; somcthhig important, something significant. Shc knew it was there. but she could not get hold o! iz_ Ami in the mean- while: a

"I want you to come over this liternoon," said the parrot \\'ll!(‘l\ was Lady Cowlc. "and Luke cock-

‘bulls with us. Filthy things, but what would our village idle-is do at five o'clock without them? One carrot least change one‘: dross for the occasion, and that fill; up halt on hour or so. What. with one thing and another. we just manage to till up the day."

‘Tm one of the village idiots." said Peggy. "I like them."

"You'll like my beautiful piano better. I promised to play tor you. and 1 have a hurrch —l mean a hunch don't IT-thet you don't believe I really cen. And there'il he g tew elders here. perhaps worth even your young while to cillii"‘ vote for. soy --t.en minutes. I pro- mise you vtntege wine."

it thoughtfully into the mouth-
