"Thank God for you and your love, Germalne," he aald brokenly; "but yoa should never have done tbla. What did you expect to do here?" "I don't know," ahe anawered. "I hoped with all my aoul that there would be no need to do anything. But I I was afraid." "Afraid? And yet you came?" "I came because I was afraid," ahe whispered. "You were alone "I came because how would you get back If anything happened?" "And all this lime you have been cramped up In that study little hole!" . "You would have turned back It you had known," ahe aald. "I knew that. Out you could not afford to turn back. Oh Colin!" It was the first time she bad ever called him Colin. And now the name had come shyly aa her arma had tightened around his neck. "Yea" he laid hla cheek against hers "but still" "After what you told me last night," ehe Interrupted quickly, "I realized what all this meant; what It means now to to both of ua to get In touch with tbla man Lazarre, arid I know that tonight he muat be told about Dollalre. Woll, you are here now, and It la too late to turn back." "How did you manage this?" he demanded. "In collusion with Jacques, I suppose?" "H, Mr. Detective Writer" W there waa suddenly a trickle of laughter In her voice "where Is your Imagination? When 1 went Into the house, I went at once to the kitchen to Antoinette and Jacauea. And I aald: 'Mr. Howard will use the launch this evening. He wanted me to go with him, but of eourae, I had to tell a little fib 'I am too tired, and I am going straight to bed. I think It would be very nice, Antoinette. If you would make eome hot coffee ana sana wlches for Mr. Howard. "The rest, of course, was very simple. I didn't go to bed; I went down to the wharf and hid myself behind one of the sheds. When Jacquea came In with the launch and went back to the house for the coffee and aandwlchea, I well, I Just got down Into the launch and tucked myaelt away." He lilted her face to bla. "There la only one Oermalne," he laughed softly. 130 NAZI COUPLES SAY 'I DO' AT ONCE BERLIN, Aug. 33. (UP) A mm wedding of 130 'Nut couples took place here today.

You don't even know which one of al! i hose who are there la Lazarre." "1 don't know what 1 am going to do," be answered frankly. "I can't ask for J.aiarre without the rest ol them afterwards asking. Lazarre how I came to know anything about him. "I can barge up to the club and tell them one and all that In my room at the hotel tonight I over heard enough to know that a raid waa to be made upon them, pretend ing, of course, I have no suspicion that they are other than a lot of wealthy sportsmen Indulging In the sport of salmon-fishing In which case, tbey being naturally suspi cious of everybody, the first question I would probably bo asked to teat me would be why I did not bring help with me from Cap a l'Oroge? You see? "And If I admit I know them to be crooks, I am likely to find my self In an exceedingly awkward po sition. Who la Mr. Donald Howard, one time of Boston and now of Cap k l'Orage? I could explain all tbla to Lazarre, and leave It to him to make what explanations he saw lit to the others, If I had tho luck to run Into him first off, but well, there'a the 'but.' r& mm p I waa afraid." "The vital thing la that, foi Lazarre'a aake, a warning has got tc be given. What they'll do then, 1 don't know. Thoy may cut and run . tor It; on the other hand, and which Is much more likely, knowing them for what they are, they'll probably fight It out In which case Lazarre Is as likely to got his as anyone else. But before that I've got to get La zarre eorted out from the rest ot them some way or othor, and some way or other manage to got a word with him In prlvato. I'll have to be guided by circumstances, that's all." "AI UCI1 too complicated, she aald little anxiously. "But why did you land so tar away from the club? I am sure you could have gone al most right up to the club Itsolf. Shall we do so now? You won't have so far to walk." "And run the chance ot you bolng seen I Not much I" he ejaculated de cisively. "I didn't go any farther be cause I was afraid of running Into fast water. Aa It Is, I thank my stars now that I landed where I did. Just the nicest kind of black shad ows here against the bank! I couldn't have chosen a bettor hiding place for the boat and you." "Very well," ahe agreed; "per haps that's ao. I am to be boat ten der, then?" "You are," he atated promptly. "And you're not to leave it, I'm the aktpper tonight, and thoso are or ders. I won't be away a moment longer than I can belp. I shan't atay for the show, of eourae" he laughed lightly "now that you're here. Whatever else I do, I've got to got you out ot thia before the fire works start." "Yes," ahe aald quietly, "lhat'a another reason why I came." It waa an Instant before he grasped her meaning, and, staring at her, understood why her eyee were wet again. (Copyright, Is)), Frank I.
