why M.xnr.i: h:i,t almost sii.ki; ijy mils. irKKi:rs STORY ' Say that over again!" 1 demmd- ' i v':tedly and then bit my lip in exasperation at the slip I had made. Little Mrs. Durke; stare i ;tt me frankly. ' What do you rrvvin?" she ask!. 1 I rejected quickly. There was but, one thing to be done, j tell the truth, or something near it in an off-, hand manner, so she'd think noth-; ins more of the incident. I knew ; better than to make a mystery of anything upon which my inqulsitie llttlo neighbor could ponder. "I'd like to hear you descirbe nnce more that man who wishes to rent your house I replierl, desiring to gain time -to arrange my story. "He was a handsome., foreign, Spanish-looking chap, with milstachios and pointed beard," she returned, "but why do you ask?" She was full of excited curiosity, and again I mentally anathematized my careless tongue. "Recause I saw a man who looked like that the other day, and thought, as you did. that I had seen eyes like his before. He gave me the same impression of having' known him. but, of course, we were both mistaken." I strove to make my voice as careloss and matter of fact as possible in the vain hope that Mrs. Durkee would drop the subject. Rut she was like an active little ferret on the trail of a rat. "How perfectly thrilling!" she said. "Madge, mark my word, he's somebody we know in disguise. Where did you see him?" "How perfectly ridiculous!" I retorted, a bit tartly, for her suggestion startled me in a spite of its litte.absurdity. "I only caught a gli'npse of the man on the street, but his unusual appearance, and an impression of recognition in his eyes stayed in' my memory, to be brought out by your description. Rut let's not waste time over anything so absurd. Tell me about your interview with this handsome, mysterious stranger." "Twice the Amount." Mrs. IHirkee shook her pretty head sagely. "You'll see!" she predicted darkly. "And just wait till you hear the lest of my story. I'm sorry I rented my house to them now, even if they did give me twice the money I asked. There's mischief afoot I'll be bound. Rut I can't get out of it now. I've taken the money and have signed a lease for the season." "Twice the amount of money you asked!" I exclaimed, for she had really startled me this time. "SupI use you begin at the beginning and tell me all about it." "Well, as 1 told you. I went to the hotel they named in their letter'and found this man. He explained that his uncle was an elderly invalid, come to the north in search of health and quiet, and that they had but one servant, a Japanese. He asked two or three questions about the house, but seemed to take everything for granted. I had a queer feeling almost ns if he knew about the place beforehand. Then he asked my price, and when I told him $400 furnished for the season ho bowed in a most captivating foreign fashion, and said: "'Madame. I am going to do an unusual thing. I am going to offer you twice the amount you named.' "I know I stared at him as if I thought he had suddenly lost his mind. And then he smiled in an amused sort of way, although I could seen he was a bit anxious for all his smiling, and said in a quick sort of a way: " 'I am doing this because for various reasons; I do not wish to jrive you the usual references.' Cause for Krflevtion. "Well, Madge, you can imagine i vyas flabbergasted. I.ut he didn't give me a chance to say anything, just went on talking. " 'Rut I can assure you. madame. you do not need to have the least uneasiness.' he said in a. way that would have made ar.v woman beIieve in him. 'My uncle is exceedingly nervous. and he lias many friends who would insist on coining to see him if they knew he wi re bear New York. And then there are i'1'..vp business reasons why we do do not wish o'.r preser.ee known -r for Min e wi ei;s at leat. If you do :.ot think t . :ce the .- m iut you named Is enough I a:i prepared to o'fer more. We are a your mercy." and he w-l a ca n. "! don't know how V- 'il it."

though he'jt somebody in disguise who really knows me?" "You ridiculous little romancer!" I evaded, kissing her. Rut her story had given me much for ref.ertion deep thought.

ii at m.ih;i:"s tiioi r.ns cox. Yixrr.R nr. it was a i'act. Curiosity is not one of my besetting sins, but I must confess that as I walked home from Mrs. Durkee's there was but one thought in my mind, and that an overwhelming desire to catch a glimpse of the men who had thrown so much mystery about their renting of Ivr v-ouse. For her description of the man she luul s-cn tallied exactly with the appearance of the foreigner, real or pretended, whom I had seen in a taxi next to mine during a blockade of Fifth av.. and in whose eys. hauntincly familiar. I was sure I bad caught a glance of startled recognition. Mrs. Durkee had said thut the man had told her he had with him his uncle, an "elderly invalid." I remembered the swathed, huddled figure I had seen in the taxi, the figure which had raised itself evidently to look at me. and had been pushed back with every evidence of quick dismay upon the part of the Jirst man. It was a preposterous thinsr, of course, that any one who knew me should be coming disguised to the house next mine. Rut I was getting used to the bizarre, the unusual. I thought, a bit wearily, that after my adventures of the week preceding my return home from Lillian's 1 wouldn't be surprised -at anything in the. world that might happen to me. There might be a very real menace also in the presence of these mysterious men in the house next door to me. Hidden securely iu the odd Chinese vase in my room was the important paper which my father had sent to Allen Hrake through me, and which Mr. Drake, after deciphering the code it contained, had given back to me. charging me to keep it safely until it should be required of me. A Stern Determination. I didn't understand in the least what possible reason there could be for some of the arrangements which had been made for the transfer and keeping of this mysterious code. Why my father should have allowed so long a time to elapse between the day he sent it to me and his cable message instructing it deliver ed to Allen Drake, or why. when Allen Drake had once deciphered it. he hadn't destroyed it instead of giving it back to me. These were questions over which I had puzzled my brain considerably, and the answers to which I had given up solving. Of two things 1 was sure. I was guarding the paper, and the clique of enemy spies, in which dace Draper was a leading spirit, would stop at nothing to secure it if they knew it were in my possession. Suppose they had found out I had the palter. and suppose the hysterious men who were to be my neighbors, were the emissaries sent to secure it! The thought made me shiver, although the day was balmy. The curiosity which had been aroused by Mrs. Durkee's narrative changed to a stern determination to meet my m-w neighbors face to face as soon as I could manage to do so. "I'll .lut Do That." This was something easier planned than accomplished. however. The mysterious lessee had made another condition with Mrs. Durkee, one which had annoyed her inquisitive soul. "I think it's a shame!" she had pouted. "I'm not to get another glimpse of them. Rut one of the stipulations he made was that I and my personal belongings should be out of the house before they arrive The Japanese servant will reach here a day ahead of the others, and I'm to give the keys to him. and then depart, bag and baggage. My handsome foreigner explainer this by saying that his uncle was exceedingly nervous. and couldn't be.jr a chance encounter with strancers. Rut I'm beginning to think it's mighty fishy myself. I do hope they're not criminals in hiding. Why. Madce, they may have murdered somebody, and lie bringing" t ho body home in a trunk to bury in my garden!" Her eyes round as a .startler child s hail beld tbe beginning of real apprehension. "What blood nnd thunder movie did you attend last?" I had mocked "Why pet imagine something worth while?
