Eng"!;sh authorities have found sood u?e for an instrument of defense which had been dircarded as useless after the war. It is the aerial listener. This consifted of a number of large horns which were directed eastward to catch the whirring sound of hostile airplanes approaching the coast. The listeners prevented many an air raid on the English coast cities, be-cause they caught the eound oZ the enemy engines long before the human ear could. Now these aerial listeners are bein? u?ed as radio loud speakers. The set shown In the photograph was recently used at a military exhibition at Tolworth. England. Iladio messages were sent from airplanes flying above to the field below, where they were magnified by these "listeners."

"H'm. Working a passage overcould that have hen it?" 'That right, sir." raid Elsie eagerly, '"lit-'d worked hid passage over." "Well." "And then Mr. Mark said loudly sort of tr.umphant-like It's my turn now. You wait." '"Triumphantly?" "As much as to say his chance had come." "And that's all you heard?"

it wasn't a pistol-shot after all. After a moment or two he goes; to the

library door again. The profound hllence makes him uneasy now. No harm in going into the office Jjst to reassure himself. So he tries the door and finds it lockedl What are his emotions now? Alarm, uncertainty. Something Is happening. Incredible though it eems. it must have been a pistolshot. He is banging at the door and calling out to Mark, and there is no answer. Alarm yes. But alarm for whose safety? Mark's, obviously. Robert is a stranger; Mark is an intimate friend. Robert has written a letter that morning, the letter of a man In a dangerous temper. Robert Is the tough customer: Mark the highly civilized gentleman. If there has been a quarrel, it is Robert who has shot Mark. He bange at the door again. Of course, to Antony, coming suddenly upon this scene, Cayley's conduct hr.d seemed rather absurd, but then. Just for the moment. Cayley had lost hi3 head. But, as soon as Antony suggested trying the windows. Cayley saw that that was the obvious thing to do. So he leads the way to the windows the longest way. Why? To give the murderer time to ecnpe? if he had thought then that Mark was the murderer, perhaps, yes. But he thinks that Robert 's the murderer. If he Is not hiding anything, he must think so. Indeed he say? so, when he sees the body; "I was afraid it was Mark." he says, when he finds that it i Robert who is killed. No reason then, for wishing to gain time. On the contrary, every instinct would urge him to get into the room as quickly as possible,

and seize the wicked Robert. Yet he goes the longest way round. "Why? And then, why run? "That's the question." said Antony to himeeif,- as he filled hUe pipe, "and Mess me if I know the a r. w er."
