"We uad first what were they? The Indiscretion ot Mile. Brent, a price ticket In the dead liana ot monsieur, a rose petal, two roses, the blackness poor Grainger trod Into the carpet, the broken com' pnrttuent In that safe, and tlio liroon bird that Is broken In two. But do I enthuse? Not su. And why, you ask? Because tbey were not of the living tissue, all those. Did I not tell you?" "Not even that price ticket?" I demanded, "Millionaires aren't shot with 35-cent price tags In their hands every day," "Ah, that! A curious affair, mats out. but not ot the living tissue. J cannot tell you why. A secondary matter, perhaps. : We shall see. And then poor Grainger Is killed and whut have we?" Kllqne's volco took a higher, vibrant pitch.

"There, my friend," and Fllque sproad his hands engagingly, "It is nu open book, You have but to turn the pages. Yon will not tell mo you cannot read what Is writ ton?" "o 3alafre and Bee are out then?" 1 asked, Ignoring his chal lenge. "I did not say so, M. t'Antlqu aire." "But they have no alibis to break!"

"Let us leave tlio gnml Manning In her dutlos," Fllque suggested. As we stepped onto the terrace. Fllque glanced at the outside stair Unit lod up the wost aldo of the east wing to the Hat root above the sun room. , "So charming are these Calltor nlan um adaptations of our old world architecture." Fllque re marked, picking his words with tare, "Consider that llttlo' tair Ho encliantlngly placed and so ad- mlnib'y useless I shall wager you a cigar that It Is never used. Oh, my good Manning," and Flliiua lapprd on one" wludow of the sun room. The girl came running. "Thnt stair there, mo fillc," Fllque snld. "Is It over used?" "Hardly ever, sir," Manning as sured us., "It's Just another pile of stups to keep swept" ' "But that, my little one Is It not a' labor ot love? Could It be otherwise In this templo of beauty 7" "Oh. go on, Mr. Fllque," and Mumilng giggled behind her duster. "I'm not anybody's 'little one.' ' Then setlously: "And It's no tomple nf beauty, sir inside, anyhow. It's a wicked bouse and 1 don't euro who hears mo say so." "The virtue of mademoiselle re deems It," Fllque snld, bowing solemnly.

"And the root door I seo up there opens Into the little hall is that It?" "Yes. sir." Fllque beamed. "It Is clear that mademoiselle Is a woman of intelli gence." "1 try to make the best of the talents that were given to me, sir," Manning said. "Who could doubt It?" Fllquo In quired, and 1 wondered what his game was. "And now, mademo- sellle.' be continued, "you will re member that monsieur was killed between half-past six and seven on Friday evening?" Indeed I do, Mr. Fllque." Aril you were with madamo every moment of that tragic halt hour, yes?" "I was, sir, 1 told Mr. Samuels, too." "Mais out. That Is to say, you were with madame ovory moment of that half hour except, of course. for the was It ten minutes? In which she bathed?" "Of course, sir." and Manning simpered. "Mistress bathes her self, sir" To be sure," Fllquo chuckled. "And when she had prepared her self for tlio bath and slipped on her green robe " "Her blue robe, sir. Her robln's- egg blue " Imbecile that 1 am!" Fllque cried vehemently. "Her - robin's- egg blue, to bo sure!

"And perhaps she bad one hand thrust deep into i pocket of her robln's-egg blue gown? No? I am wrong?" "Oil. but she had. sir!" Manning burst forth excitedly. "She seemed to be holding something tight null I wnnilorod what It was." "Mademoiselle would, being a woman of Intelligence," Fllque mur mured gravely. "But madamo wns um nervous, perhaps?" "Yes. she was." Manning cried, glowing. "All upset. But I didn't think much ot It, for Mr. Parados never treated her properly. But she needn't have snapped at mo the way she did whou I showed her that little stone 1 found on the carpet." "A llttlo green stono?" "That's all It was. sir." Manning continued wnrnily. "1 Bhowcd It to her and she knocked It out or my hand. 1 thought she wns going to slop my face. Keally I did. sir." Mndomolselle has hen problem. But who has not, 1 ask you?" Fllquo laughed. That's right, sir," Manning sighed piously. "We ull have our crosses. "Mademoiselle has tho philoso phy, also," Fllque boamed, nntl bo chucked Manning under tho chin. "But this little green stone you have It, ottit" "No, sir, I haven't. When 1 looked tor It, It was gone. Mistress must havo plckotl It up." Fllque shrugged. "A nothing," he murmured casually. "It. hap pened, this, after madame had bathed?" ' "Yes, sir. You always guess right, Mr, Fllque." "Madomolscllo tempts me to try again." Fllque snld. bowing. "Toll mo, when madame mtered her bathroom you hoard um water running?" "Yes, I did." and Manning nod ded vehomcntly. "For maybe four or five minutes it was. too. It sur prised me tor I'd always prided my self on having mistress's bnth Just right. Maybe that's whnt made ner so touchy." Manning's face at this became troubled nnd she began to pluck nt her apron. "I don't know why you are asking mo all tlipio questions, Mr. Fllque. J do hnio I'm not saying anything I shouldn't." .".Yon, lion," Fllquo protest pd, spreading his plump hands engag ingly.

Such a director invariably has a fondness for depicting gobs always singing, dancing and mak ing wise cracks.
