Her gaze met Harry's, and <>nre more his fe>t shuffled uneasily on the bare floor as he dug his hands deep Into his porkets. As from a great dr-’ance. she heard the officer again speaking, repeating: "Yes. ma'am, they could have trade a clean getaway—if It hadn't been for this girl pulling off that stunt—’* Over a broad, blue shoulder. Jingo me? John Dey's eyes. 'What stunt, officer?” he asked, quietly Mrs Dey was looking up over Betty Loui yellow head cuddled in the furs a* her shoulder and Ann Westmore s’ood in the circle of her mother arm. Judge Davies was smiling! “The stunt that ended In this! Lordy heavens, this clrl tore the city wide open with one splitting scream where traffic was the thickest. She was heard for blocks. Better tell 'em your story, my girl—” Jingo shook her head wearily, turned from them "When we caught 'em.” the officer went on turning back to his audience "That bird—Barnes—was trying to choke her. That’s the stunt she pulled—and she timed it just righ*. "As for your emeralds, ma'am, we don’t know anvthin’ about ’em. There wasn't anything in that car but this e:rl—the kid*—and the.se two crooks.” Jingo pulled herself to her feet and turnd to them, leaning against the table for support. “You'll find your emeralds in the cedar rlc.et at the end of the hall beneath the winter blankets.” she said slowly. “I know Vera was after them she had the combination to the safe and they were waiting for —for the big break!” Sh laughed harshly. Then hand went tip to her lips 10 still their trembling "That's why I didn't put them back I was going to telj you last night—” She tuok a step toward Harry Barnes.

"l d.d doublecross you, Harry. And after all. you're the best friend I ever had—since dad died.” "Bpeak up. girl, tell your story." "They wouldn't believe me—" wearily. "Jessica.” John Dev had crossed the room and stood beside her. Please—” “It was just as Vera said—” slowly. Harry Barnes’ voice broke in. taut aa a steel wire. "She'* lyin’!” he cried. “She's not givin' it to you straight!” "It was Just as Vera said —only the other way around.” Jingo continued. "She was ready to go with Harry—and take them—th© children. She said nothing could stop her—she threatened. There was nothing else to do ” "You knew she was in the house for that purpose.” a n.’pped Mrs Dey. “You knew—" Jingo brushed her hand across her head wearily. “I knew—they were planning on the emeralds. I didn't know it would be—the children. The Jewels were safe. I I locked her in the closet, put on her hat—and went with him. "He said nothing could—stop them. I knew that—even I—could not—stop him. That’s all. It was the only thing I could do. then—but I know you won't believe me—” "I believe you, Jessica.” John Dey spoke softly, bending his head. She looked up at him. her hands clenched tight at her sides. “You won't ” she said clearly. distinctly. "You won’t believe me —when I tell you—l am Tom Carter’s girl. Tom Carter —was my father! And you called him one of the most dangerous characters in the city—three years ago.” a a a SLOWLY he turned to face Ann West more. Her hand came up to her breast. “I--am the exhibit that Dr. Bob told you about. I am that person —brought up by—by Tom Carter! Dr. Bob meant—me! And the year was up—last night! That is why I didn't tell—before. I wanted to justify Dr. Bob's faith in me. “I wanted to show you—” she turned to face John standing be-
side her: “And you—that Dr. Bob was right. I promised—but I waited too long.” "Tom Carter's—daughter!” The words snapped from Mrs. Dey’s straight lips. Harry Barnes took another shuffling step forward. “Yes, ma'am, she's Tom Carter's daughter.” Jingo's hands were clenched tight *n the soft shimmering folds of the blue dress. After a moment. Harry's voice came across the room again, brusque, surly: "But it—was Vera who was workin’ on this deal. That's why she took—a job as maid in your home—waitin' to get a chance at the stones. She called me last night —said they were not in the safe, but we could take the kids—knew you'd come across quick.” He stopped and ran his tongue over his lips. “Go on ” the officer commanded sharply. "Her ” Harry jerked his head toward Jingo. “ year was up today. We were goin' to light out together.” Then he laughed shoit-

ly. “That was the plans—but she was stringin' me along. I know, now. She was meetin’ me nights—because I made her!” He brushed his hand across his eyes and stepped back beside Sam. a a a 'T'HE door opened behind them and an officer curtly motioned for the two men to leave the room. Harry turned again and raised his head. For a moment his eyes met Jingo’s. Then they traveled slowly down over the blue dress to the silver slippers. His mouth was twisted as he looked up and across the room came his tense whisper: "Doublecrosser!” The door closed with a click. Harry was gone. "We'll be outside. John.” and Judge Davies held the door open for Mrs. Westmore and her daughter. Mrs. Dey smiled and held out her hand to Jingo. "Will you forgive me, Jessica? I am sorry—X did not have Dr. Bob's faith. You will teach me—?” She took her small grandaugh-
ter's hand and led her from the room. "We are going home now, Jessica.” John said as he took both her hands in his. -But—l—” “I know. I have known for a long time. Dr. Bob told me—before he died. He told me when I wanted to tell you I loved you. He asked me to wait.” “Oh —” and she drew In her br2ath with a little sob. “You knew —and you trusted me?” “I loved you and where there is love, there is trust." His hands were on her shoulders and he was drawing her to him. “If Dr. Bob is looking down right now,” he whispered, his face pressed against the dark head at his shoulder. ‘ How happy he must be to know —” “To know I have not failed him.” Jingo said softly. "He knows I have proved that—” “That you are the most wonderful girl in the world, with a heart of gold. What does anything matter—except that we love each other—” Over his shoulder the silver star against the night sky twinkled in its frame—a window high in the wall. “But you haven’t told me you love me, Jessica.” John smiled down at her, his eyes crinkling at the corners.
