If he'd known that both Rose and Johnny saw him on both occa sions, ho would probably have told Jan about It himself. As It was, he thought It unnecessary to say anything to anyone. Frankly, ho was worried. Bo cause if . Leiiore did find out whuro he lived, und with whom, she would undoubtedly make trouble. Sho was not taking his abandonment of her llf;htly. She was employing every means she knew to win blm back, to In trigue his Interest once more. He was not loot enougn lo linns ii Impossible, either, even though he distrusted and disliked her. If she worried him, she was also healing the hurt in him. making him heart-whole, for she had lost the newer to shako bis emotions. Yet. Lenore was shrewd and clever as well as beautiful and 'charming. In short, to Insure his integrity, he wanted to put dis tance, nlenty of It, between him self and her, but ha did not want to leave the Merriners. He was caught, almost literally, "between the devil and the Ueep bluo sea." Hose, coming into the house to ehunua clothes on this first glorl oils day of June, met Jan on the stairway and remarked care lessly. "Metier watch Derek darling. Hos having heart trouble Willi a gorgeous blonde! Jan stopped. "What do you mean?" "I've seen him a couplo of times talking ardently to a girl at the Surf club. I don't know who sho is. I'll try to find out, if you want lo know?" "I don't waul to know. It's his business, isn't It?" Sho went on downstairs, her spirits leaden. Not. she assured herself, because of Derek and a girl, but because hor prized sketches of Neptune had been returned tills afternoon with a not too unsyuipathetlcally worded rejection slip. Sho went out and sat on Iho porch with her small, round chin run ed In her hands. Until the return of the sketches she hudn'l oulto realized how much she'd counted on selling them.

The utitT died out of I'erek's face. Consternation, amazement. wonder, took Its place. He said. loudly: "Well. I'll he damned! ISo that's what she thinks of mo!" With tho hypnotic intentness of man in the urip of a grim do- termination, ho strode in to lhe piano, his proud head lifted, his eyes brilliant with emotional re hirlh. His finger ,-oimhl keys and h Riortoiis, rushing flood of music filled the old house from collar io rooftop. He played on and on with tho hunger of a man break ing fasL It was as If a torrential sea of music deluged the house and its inmate, drowning out tho net t iness of everyday t roubles, hrpaklng tho bonds of little slave worries, sundering the chains of every thins mundane, laying bare the Inner buirit of all existence with the sheer. & ful magnifi IT IBIS cence of sound. He stopped playing as sudden ly aB he bad begun. "It has come back to me," be whispered In a tone of prayer. "At' last I've found my soul!" Still In a trance, not even see Ing the white-faced huddled fig ure at the top of the stairs, Derek picked up the bundle of sketches and went out In the night. Air Mall Letter Jan woke late, sat up and peered from her window. The Bky was overcast, gray, depressing. No sound disturbed the quiet of the house. The tin alarm clock an nounced the hour to be eight forty. Either she'd forgotten to set the alarm, or It hadn't wakened her, she thought. At all events, Norma must have prepared her own breakfast. Queer that Derek hadn't knocked on her door be fore now with a demand for food. Suddenly she remembered their quarrel, and Its aftermath. Remembered she hadn't heard him come In last night even though she'd lain awake hours, miserable and wretched and re morseful, repenting the horrid scene. She shouldn't have lost her temper and flared out at him like that. And she had been wrong He had repudiated ber accusation of failure by loosing a flood of vital, living tone. He had told her with bis fingers of bis recovery, of his gift reborn. He bad been a conqueror playing bis own tri umphal march! "I'M find him, and apologize, with trimmings," she promised herself. She Jumped out of bed. looking about twelve years old In her pink, flowered pajamas and tumbled curls. Neptune lifted bis head to stare at ber curiously, decided breakfast was not too imminent, und burrowed his nose once more under the plumo cur tain of his lull, keeping one eye open, however, His mistress certainly appeared upset about something this morn ing, he observed In his sphinx- like fashion. SJie seemed lo be having a difficult time deciding what to put on. Much as he loved her he thought her very foolish tnd lemiuluo of late. Arising used to he a matter of jumping Into those blue pants of hers, giving her hair a lick and a promise, dousing her face with cold water und hurrying to cook breakfast. He sighed nn inaudible cat sigh. Recently life had become Increas ingly difficult. She powdered and painted and fussed with her hair. and sometimes changed clothes two or three times before she was satisfied. j "Neppy." Hhe said, tickling lhe ft.-..., ..-kiln ....(,.1. It I,. l.i r lllu hiti "ulnn L-lHl'iiiir ui inn liko Hint you fickle animal. This is tho first time In weeks you've deigned to, sleep on my bed. Didn't Derek allow you on the roof last night?" On the way downstairs, sedate ly accompanied hy the cat, Jan rehearsed her speed, of apology. Going hesitantly Into the kitchen she found it empty, everything neatly in place as she'd left It the night before. Norma must have taken her breakfast in a cafe. Maybe Derek was waiting on the roof for her call to breakfast. Rut he was not on the roof and an examination of tho tent showed his bed had not been slept in. Distressed, mure worried than sho would admit, sho began the routine duties of another duy, hoping he would turn up before long. He didn't. Not until tho afternoon mail brought an air mail letter post marked San Francisco did she realize, with raw sick terror, what had happened. For the letter was from Derek. "Dear young mariner: You've done your penanco. so I'm re moving the albatross from round your neck. I'm en route , to New York by plane, ready to storm the citadels. If can do it you'll hear from mo I again, but not until I've aban doned my light little castle of self-pity. I took your sketches j for good luck. Thanks for I everything, puss. ( Dorek. the Salvaged." 1 Sho read lhe bold, scrawling letter over and over until they blurred. Derek gone! fhere wasn't time for even a good cry. Dance rang for service and then there was marketing to do and dinner to prepare and dishes to wash. When it appeared sne would at last find a moment alone. Johnny and Rose sought hor out with disturbed und an noyed faces. ( To be continued) Anti-Defense Sabotage Told by F. B. I. Chief WASHINGTON. Aug. (AIM ,1.
