"CONTRABAND , ’ lt gS

SYNOPSIS When Gregory Sallust first saw rhe girl, in the Casino at Deauville, t was near midnight on the last day >f the young Englishman's leisure,y tour through Normandy. Sallust, ■ former Intelligence officer, is now confidential investigator for a great British commercial corporation. The girl, tall and beautiful, came into the gaming room accompanied by a strange little man. not a dwarf vet curiously ill-proportioned, whom Gregory recognised as a sinister figure in international affairs. When, at midnight, the girl left the Casino alone, Sallust followed her. She meets a man in aviator’s toga and the two are trailed by Gregory to a room above a chbap case, where the man is attacked by three hoodlums. Gregory helps him escape Gregory then takes the girl, Sabine, to his hotel to save her from police questioning. There he tsks her the meaning of the coded telegram he found in a black notecase on the floor of the case room after the fight. While they are talking her odd little companion, calls Sabine on the telephone, telling her the coast is clear for her to return to him. Gregory tries to get Sabine to admit that the thugs who attacked the man (a Scotland Yard officer) were in her friend’s employ. She warns him that it ia aometimes dangeroua to know too much. CHAPTER IV "A threat, eh? Come, that's ungenerous, since you’d be in the Deauville police station at this moment If I hadn't got you out of that cart. More, it’s rank ingratitude when I propose to keep you here all night to save you from arrest. Remember, the man who your friend’s thugs tried to do in was an officer from Scotland Yard. When our special branch men operate on the continent they always keep in touch with the local police, »o if he has escaped he will have made his report by nowgiven your description—and the authorities will be wanting you pretty badly.” For a moment she was silent, then with a little sigh she sat down on the arm of a low chair. ”1 am so tired, she mu linored, passing her hand across her eyea. ’’Perhaps you are right Monsieur, but it is ungallant that you should take advantage of -ny situation.” He smiled, one of those rare warm smiles which could at times make his grim face so attractive, and laid a land on her shoulder. “Don’t worry, please,” he said softly. “I hope we are going to see ;uite a lot of each other in the fu- : ire. so the last thing I want is to .nake you think me a bore. I only want to help you. I’m sure it’s best for you to stay here the night, though. Y’ou can have my bed and I’ll shake down with some cushions and the eiderdown in the bathroom. We'll talk things over in the morning." She nodded slowly, not doubting for an instant that he meant exactly what he said. Gregory made a practice of never being called and usually slept late in the morning. But at half past ei’ht the bathroom door opened and Sabine put her dark head round Hie corner. As his eyes opened he stared at her in bewilderment, then the events of the few hours before flooded back to him and he sat up. “I am so sorry if I disturb you," j she said, “but I have been awake a I long time and I am hungry; also, I would like a bath.” “Righto! Give me ten minutes, please, and I’ll see what we can do about some breakfast. Feeling better this morning?” “A lot, t’ank you.” She smiled and shut the door. He shaved his lean face with quick sure strokes, brushed his tumbled hair, slipped on his dressing gown, and then joined her in the bedroom. Her evening dress and stockings

telephone, and a quarter of an hour later the floor waiter appeared with the dishea and coffee upon a tray. He was accompanied by a porter carrying a cabin trunk, which he set' down carefully as he said, "thia has Just arrived, Monsieur. I was ordered to bring it up to you at once." When the men had gone Gregory examined the trunk. It was addressed to him and he found it unlocked. On opening it, he saw a note inside. It read: Dear Mr. Salluit: I tnut that gw hare taken eare of my little friend, Sabine. Some people in my petition might find ground* for eerioue annoyanee in her desertion of me, but at my age I can afford to be tolerant towards the escapades of young people. I only hope she was not disappointed in yon. Now that this little frolic is over, however, she will naturally wish to return to my care at the earliest possible moment. To facilitate that end I send under your name a complete outfit of her day clothes. Should she fail to rejoin me by noon I shall consider you lacking in appreciation of the courtesy I have extended to you and proceed to teach you a sharp lesson in good manners. I do not sign this <m Sabino will know from whom it comes. Gregory grinned. He did not need to ask Sabine from whom the letter had come, and knowing something of the sender he felt that the veiled threat was by no means an empty one. Yet he had no intention of truckling to it

al. It was submitted and sustained. A waiver of notice was filed by the state board of tax coninds-

self. But what shall we do afterward? How would you like to spend the day?” She became grave at once. “I must get back and rejoin my friend. Otherwise he will be angry and when he is angry it is not good.” "Listen.” Gregory leaned forward eagerly and took her hands. “If you wish to do so, you are perfectly free to walk out of this room now. From the beginning I’ve never had the least intention of turning you over to the police, I’m sure you know that, but if you go now I may never see you again. All I’m asking is for another hour or two with you. This is the last day of my holiday. I’m returning to England this evening by the five o’clock boat Won’t you be very sweet and kind, risk a spot of trouble with the old man, and spare me a few hours today? Just long enough to drive somewhere and Innch together in the sunshine. I'll have yon back in Deauville and safe at. home by four o’clock. I promise.” ’’You have been kind—and generous.” She hesitated a second. “But this may be most dangerous for you." “Danger has never stopped me doing anything I wanted to yet, nor you my dear. We’re two of a kind and thrive on it—be honest now—aren't we?” "Cest vrai,” she said softly. “All right then, I will do as you wish, but the consequences—they must be upon your own head.” (To Be Continued) Copyrlcht, lIJT, by King Featurci Srndtr*t<, la<
