In the hail lie came face to face with Dr. Steiner, who was about to call on Henderson.

Dr. Munsell picked up the parcel. It contained a Secret Service body and a card, reading; "Here is Burke's badge. He wont need It any longer, because he was unlucky enough to discover the identity of

That same day, when Arnold went to his office with Hart, he discovered that Henderson had already assumed control "Did my friend Arnold take good onre of you. yulnn?" Henderson asked Hart. "Swell. But 1 don't think I was ever cut out to be a chauffeur. I want to aee some action." "You will," Henderson replied At that Instant, the clerk looked in and Informed Arnold that he had an appointment with Dr. Steiner at four. Arnold turned to Henderson with a mixture of resentment and

fear.

"I see. Oh—so you're going to

After Arnold had left. Henderson turned to Hart and invited him to pull up a chair "You wouldn t think to look at Arnold that lie was

"You know the -oman up at the house, Edwards, supposed to be housekeeper? Well, she's really trained nurse She's up there i

I il tell him how we did It and l'|l ask

Hawkes to send more men."

Hart had gone to Arnold's houso to gather up his belongings before sotting out on the mi-sion. As be was leaving, ho met Julie. Hello. Julie I was afraid I wouldn't get a chance to sets you before I left.” "You're not leaving us?" •'Yes, with a great regret."

"Why?" "Orders."

‘Tm terribly sorry. Ever since I came to live hero I've been groping In the dark, and Tm still groping But somehow I felt safer when you

were here.*’

"Before I go. I want to give you n little tip Maybe I shouldn't tell you this, but your father Is In a bud business — dope—and you know

what that means."

“That's part of my groping. You've been part of It. too.” “Never mind about mo—think of your father He» in wrong with

I'd get him out of hero quick." At that Instant the door opened

and Arnold entered. Hart quickly changed the subject T was Just

saying goodbye to Julie. Mr. Arnold.

I took the liberty of giving her a

picked up his grip "Tve got a date with a freighter.” He took Julies hand and looked earnestly down at
