GERMAINE'S COURAGE
TIB m holding her close to him
as they itood there together In
the bolt, her tace hidden now on
bis ihoulder, his Angers playing
. with atranda of her hair, aoft gold
In the moonlight, brushing them
back from her forehead.
"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.
The 200 persons collectively re
sponded "I do," to the Nasi pastor
In a local church, while hundreds of
curious looked on at the unusual
spectacle.
Bevel si Haal officials attended.

'oiiiyl" fcliu aiullcu back at him;
...a then, seriously: "But, Colin
i..iat are you going to do now? 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.
