and Chaun net was intensified by this latest turn in the affair She read for an hour in the library but the air was close and she threw aside her book drew on a light coat and went out upon the veranda A storm was stealing down from the I hills and the fitful wind tasted of rain She walked the length of the i veranda several times then paused at the farther end of It where steps led i out into the pergola There was still n mist of starlight and she looked out I upon the vague outlines of the garden with thoughts of its needs and the gardeners work for the morrow Then I she was aware of a light step far out I In the pergola and listened carelessly to mark it thinking It one of the house 1 servants returning from a neighbors but the sound was furtive and as she waited It ceased abruptly She was about to turn Into the house to sum ¬ mon help when she heard a stir In the shrubbery in quite another part of the garden and in a moment the stooping figure of a man moved swiftly toward the pergola Shirley stood quite still watching and listening The sound of steps in the pergola reached her again then the rush of flight and out In the gar ¬ den n flying figure darted in and out among the walks For several minutes two dark figures played at vigorous hide and seek Occasionally gravel crunched under foot and shrubbery snapped back with a sharp swish where It was caught and held for sup ¬ port at corners Pursued and pursuer were alike silent The scene was like a pantomime Then the tables seemed to be turned The bulkier figure of the pursuer was now In flight and Shirley lost both for a mo- ment ¬ but imme ¬ diately a dark form rose at the wall She heard the scratch of feet upon the brick surface as a man gained- the top turned and lifted his arm as though aiming a wea- pon ¬ v J Then a dark object hurled A dark obJect struck through the all him in fie face struck hint squarely in the face and he tumbled over the wall and Shirley heard him crash through the hedge of the neigh ¬ boring estate Then all was quiet again The game of hide and seek In the garden and the scramble over the wall had consumed only two or three min- utes ¬ and Shirley now waited her eyes bent upon the darkly outlined pergola- for some manifestation from the re maining Intruder A man now walked rapidly toward the veranda carrying a cloak on his arm She recognized Ar ¬ mitage instantly He doffed his hat and bowed The lights of the house lamps shone full upon him and she saw that he was laughing a little breathlessly I Thfg fq re8n ortuuzlte MISS Cl11o ABOUT HAIR Lossto

hills and the fitful wind tasted ofrain She walked the length of the i

veranda several times then paused atthe farther end of It where steps led i

out into the pergola There was still n

mist of starlight and she looked out I

upon the vague outlines of the gardenwith thoughts of its needs and thegardeners work for the morrow Then I

she was aware of a light step far out I

In the pergola and listened carelesslyto mark it thinking It one of the house

servants returning from a neighborsbut the sound was furtive and as shewaited It ceased abruptly She wasabout to turn Into the house to sum ¬

mon help when she heard a stir In theshrubbery in quite another part of thegarden and in a moment the stoopingfigure of a man moved swiftly towardthe pergola

Shirley stood quite still watchingand listening The sound of steps inthe pergola reached her again thenthe rush of flight and out In the gar ¬

den n flying figure darted in and outamong the walks For several minutestwo dark figures played at vigoroushide and seek Occasionally gravelcrunched under foot and shrubberysnapped back with a sharp swishwhere It was caught and held for sup ¬

port at corners Pursued and pursuerwere alike silent The scene was likea pantomime

Then the tables seemed to be turnedThe bulkier figure of the pursuer was

now In flightand Shirley lostboth for a mo-

The game of hide and seek In thegarden and the scramble over the wallhad consumed only two or three min-utes

¬

and Shirley now waited her eyesbent upon the darkly outlined pergola-for some manifestation from the remaining Intruder A man now walkedrapidly toward the veranda carrying acloak on his arm She recognized Ar ¬

mitage instantly He doffed his hatand bowed The lights of the houselamps shone full upon him and shesaw that he was laughing a littlebreathlessly I
