This dazzle of headflghtn, with Ita succeeding darkness, was going to make It most frightfully difficult to epot Nesta. He turned at the end of his beat and walked In the Ledllngton di rection, and as he did so, a small car came slowly up behind him. In c, flash Caroline was out of the car and holding on to him. "Oh, Jim darling!" she said, and wag In his arms. She put up her face, and he kissed her. They had always kissed one another, but this was a different kiss. They were both trembling. "Jim," said Caroline. "Oh, Jim darling, do let me help! You see, I! you get Into the car, we can stand In a good dark place between the lampposts In Eandrlngham Drive and watch the house. You'll miss her If you stay here. It's all quite nlmple and If you won't do It with me, I shall just go off and do It by myself." For a moment his- grasp tight ened. Then hp took his hands away and said, "All right we'd better hurry." , Caroline was still shaking as she started the car. She dimmed the headlights and crawled round the corner Into Sandrlngham Drive. I feel like a toy balloon all floaty! Oh, Jim Isn't It fun?" Jim took her by the shoulder and shook her. "Now look here, Caroline this Is a Job. You're not to talk nonsense, and you're not to snuggle, and you're not to say 'Jim darling.' " Caroline sat as far away from him as she could. TIM went on speaking. " "Now I'll tell you what I'm doing here. Vou'd better be prepared for a bit of a shock. The emeralds were at Hale Place, In the Blue Room. What I want to know Is did you ever tell anyone anyone, DUCKS PREFER A VEGETARIAN DIEI 8ALEM, Ore.

Then with her heart thumping and ber head spin ning, she was set down at arm's length and bold there. "Now you've got to go home," aald Jim In an odd hard voice. "No, it's no use you've got to go. If I get out of this, we'll get married, but until I do you've got to stand clear." "Oh!" said Caroline rather faint ly. Jim's grip was hurting her.

I can't believe it, but I suppose I did do It." Caroline caught her breath. She went on quickly. "Thero'a something else. After I left Susie I lost my way. That frightful storm was right overhead. I blundered Into someone's room. There wne a screen In front of the door, so they didn't soo me." "Who Is 'they'?" said Jim.
