I can't tell you any thing except that there Is something which makes all the things I hoped Impossible.” She could see the gray under his tanned skin. She knew she hnd wounded him bitterly. There was -t terrible quietness In his distinct, clear voice. “Then you never really loved me?1 " I did.” she said simply; "thnt's what makes It so hard.” " If you love me,” he cried, “nothing can come between us.” “Something has come between us I do love you, Itobln, and I shall never care for anyone else; but there Is someone who needs me more than yon do.” “I ’m not going to say good-by,” he said gently. “But you must," she Insisted. “It Is all over, Robin. One little week of happiness and years and years of re gret.” Suddenly she turned from him and walked away. He followed with be seeching gestures until he saw that De Gulllaln was approaching. It seemed to hint that Agatha almost ran to the elder man. “What have you been doing on this lovely morning?” Malet asked. “Breaking my heart, I think,” she answered. "Please wnlk back to the house with nje. I don't want to have to speak to nnyone.” Mulet was not deceived by the smile with which she tried to hide her suf fering. He wished he had words to help her. He walked to the big house, his heart aching because she wns hurt. He wondered what It was about. Of course, It had to do with young Robin McKImber.

And what hut harm does one do who attempts to adjust lovers' quarrels? After breakfast Mrs. Rnxoti sent for her soelnl secretnrj. “Your month Is up today," she said. “I do not think you need remnin. I shall pay you for another month In lieu of notice.” "Why are you sending me away?" Miss Brown asked quletl.v. “You ought to know," Gertrude Kaxon cried. "We’ve watched you trying to get Robin McKImber as If yon were one of our friends Instead r .f being hired to help.” Miss Brown could even smile. “I am quite snre,” she said sweetly, •that nobody who knows me would >ver suspect roe of being your friend./ “And yon oeedn t apply to tis for ecoluiiiendations," shouted the girl. “I shall not." said SIlss Brown calm ly. She gave a little smile and bow and left them. Mrs. Kaxon wished she could walk like that. She wns filled with a sud den sense of having acted badly. She had never let her «laughters know how much she admired her social sec retary. The girl la id made no vulgar scene, ns Mrs. Raxon hnd dreaded. She had not raised her voice: nor had she begged for another chance. She waa calm, aloof, superior.

H a lf an hour later a taxi came to the front door and Miss Agathn Brown left Great Rock. Paul Kaxon did not learn of It until later. He only hoped the household efficiency would not be Impaired.

I ’ve been awfully proud of the way you carried It off." Neeland Barnes went about his work with greater sp irit “When I think of a man of your genius doing this sort of thing,” she said to Fleming Bradney as she shook hands, “I can't admire you enough. She left them, smiling brilliantly. They felt she had the secret of suc cess with her. Yet, alone In the taxi cab, she cried unrestrainedly. Kobin McKImber did not find out she was gone until luncheon. The Kaxon girls had not forgiven him.

Mrs. Me Klmber was more Interested in her home city than the nation’s capital, with Its Jealousies, intrigues, and cou stunt entertaining. CHAPTER XI Peter Mlltnan received the tran script ion Nits hhd made from her rough notes without showing the tre mendous eagerness that possessed him. “You have done splendidly,” he said, and then hesitated a little. " I am al most afraid to read it." “You need not be,” she said slowly. "I think you will find that you have saved your home.'* “Then It is complete success?” he cried. •There Is still more to be done,'' she snld, “but I think we have suc- ct-ded.” She could not bear to talk any more. In Ills library, Peter Mlltnan read the document carefully. He saw ex actly with what a deadly grip Paul Raxon held McKImber. But Peter Mllntun was not yet In a position to turn tills knowledge to account. So far, McKImber was the sufferer in that, whereas only one niaD had known his secret, now It was shared by many. Mllntan thought of the thing Impartially as though he were an arbitrator and McKlmber’s case had come before him. On one side, McKImber and Itaxon. On the other, himself, Barnes, Brudney, and Malet. He persuaded himself that It was Jus tice against Injustice, right against wrong. He had brooded ton long over the prospect of losing his home to have any qualms left. He waited im patiently until the hour when he ex pected Bradney and Barnes. They could not leave Great Rock until past ten o'clock, and it was almost mid night when he passed them Nlta's re port ‘T h e next thing to do Is to obtain that envelope,” Milman snld. “ We know they ure In that room some where.” "There's a big wall-safe of a mod em type," Barnes said. “And therefore absolutely Immune from us,” Bradney commented. “ I huve long felt that there must be an ap prenticeship to this sort of enterprise. Safe-blowing Is practiced successfully by almost all the yeggs who wander up and down <yur country. I know how It is done, but I couldn't do it myself.” “ We dare not hire anyone to do It for us,” Barnes said thoughtfully. “It seems to me we are up against IL I f you haven't enough to hold him up with already, 1 don’t gee what else Is to be done.” ‘T h e re ’s a way out," said Peter Mil- man, “and a simple one.

Why should not Raxon open the safe, as he must do frequently, quite unaware thut someone Is ready to spring at him, tie him up and examine Its con long his father was with Raxon In his distant suite. The delay seemei Intolerable. More than anything else Kohln wanted to find where Agatha had gone. Ills appeal to Sneed brought no results. Then he thought of De Gulllaln. Robin had not hitherto liked this man.. He had been Jealous of all who seemed Intimate with the girl. Bui he decided to make a clean breast of It. “I hnve asked Miss Brown t-J marry me," he said quietly. "Yesterday It seemed as though she loved me. This morning, out on the links, she said she hnd to go, and something had hap pened which made everything Impos sible. Perhaps she has heard things about me that I could explain. Can't you help me to find her?" Malet did not answer Immediately His first Impulse was to help young McKImber. But he remembered In time that he was engaged In a con splracy In which the elder McKImber might he Involved. For the time the two must be kept apart. It would not do to let him suspect he knew her present address. "Alas, that I cannot help you,” he returned. "Madame la Duchesse de Froinnge-Yerte, at whose chateau In the Department of the Loire I first met Miss Brown, Is now traveling In Tuscany. Perhaps a cablegram ad dressed to her might bring results." “How do you spell her name?" Kobin demanded. A few minutes later he came face to face with Mrs. Kaxon and asked her bluntly how It was she had en gaged an Inefficient person. "She hnd references from the conn less of Horsham, at Horsham in England, and Mrs. Hamilton Buxton of Westbury Old Manor." tents at leisure?" It was her daughters who pointed "By G ad!” Barnes said excitedly. j out later that he had obtained the addresses he sought by a ruse. They "It might work.
