A financier, Procopius Cable, knows there is oil in pro fusion in Lystrla. and with an English king on the throne the output could be secured for E n g land. Norheys. In love with a stage dancer. Vi ol a Temple/ is not enthusiastic o v e r the propo sition. The patriarch, Menelaus, highest ecclesiastical dignitary in Lystrla, is heartily In favor of the restoration o f the monarchy, and Cable has generously financed the sentiment. Calypso is m ak ing a livi ng dancing in the "Mas* cotte," Berlin cabaret. Norheys refuses to entertain the idea of g i v i n g up Viola Temple, to whom he is secretly engaged. "Uncle B i l l ’s’’ sister Em il y urges him to secure a passport fr om Lord Tr o y t e fo r a certain Janet Church, strongminded female who wants to visit Lyst rl a in the interests o f a society for world peace. Janet Church leaves for Berlin. "Uncle B i l l " is again appealed to by his sister to find a certain curate (name not g i v en) who has lef t his parish in Ireland for a vis it to Berlin, and cannot be found. CHAPTER V— Continued “ Viola threw Ills dirty money In his fate,” said Norheys, “ and you'd have thought that would have been 1 enough for him. But It wasn't.

It seems to me a callous thing to do. scarcely what I should call Christian. Anyhow, he went there. At least he sakl he was going there, and I suppose he really did, for that Is where the postcard came from. He left his address before he started, in case anything went wrong !u the parish and we wanted him hack. Directly the poor canon broke down Mrs. Pyke telegraphed to Ber lin, hot no answer came. Then I tel egraphed. When I got no answer I telegraphed again to the manager of the hotel. I got a reply saying that he had left two days after he ar rived and not given any address. “ Now I know that with your Influ ence and all your London friends— I am sure Lord Edmund Troyte could do something to help us— ” Apparently I was to set our con sular service to work to find a curate who was rampaging about Central Europe. I should look a nice fool if I went to the Foreign ofHce with a request like that. I was inclined to agree with Emily. That curate of hers should never have been a clergy man. I sympathized with her, and with Canon Pyke, and with the par ish. I even sympathized slightly with the curate. But I was not going to do anything. I slipped Emily’s letters into the "Unanswered” basket on top of her earlier letter about Janet Church. But SIH h ng -‘ st £P USKIDE IN Say “ Bayer Aspirin” o Accept on,y i tperc Serious operation avoic ded FOR OVER 200 YEARS Then My Servant Brought Me in Some Letters Which Had Just Arrived by Post. I was not allowed to dismiss the mat ter from my mind. I got another let ter the next day. “ I ’m afraid I forgot to mention,” she wrote, "that the address he gave us was the Adlon hotel. He said that If anything went wrong In the parish he would come hack at once." She had not forgotten to give me that address. What Emily had for gotten to tell hie was the curate’s name. That rattier tied my hands, or would have tied them if I had meant to do anything. Next day I got a fourth letter from Emily. In It she enclosed twelve penny stamps. "Please get our ambassador in Ber lin to telegraph,” she wrote, "as soon as he finds out where our curate Is. I don't know what It costs to send a telegram to Berlin, but I send twelve stamps which ought to be enough considering the present state of ttie exchange. Besides, an ambassador probably gels his telegrams sent cheap.” That letter Joined the others in-the basket. By the same post came one from Canon Pyke himself written in pen cil from his bed. He began apolo getically. He would never have dreamed of troubling me with Ids pri vate affairs had not his friend Mrs. Chambers (my sister Emily) urged him to write to me on a subject very near to his henrt at the moment— the lost curnte. '•The dear fellow,” he went on. “ is not In all respects exactly what a clergymnn ought to be. At the same time, he is a worthy young mnn. full of heartiness and energy.

His letter Joined Emily's In the basket. Then Emily took to telegraphing to me. She Is a frugal woman whose spare money goes to missionary so cieties, bnt she spent a lot on tele grams They kept getting longer and longer. There was no doubt that she was In earnest about finding that curate I disposed of the fourth telegram la tb* usual way. Tb« pUa la tba ba.iket on my desk was becoming large. Then my servant brought me In some letters which had Just arrived by post. 1 glanced at the envelopes anxiously, fearing that either Emily or her dear Canon Pyke had written again. 1 was relieved to find that the only real letter was addressed in Edmund Troyte's writing Along with It was a postcard. I begun with Edmund Troyte. He invited me to dine wltn him that very evening. “ You and 1,” he wrote, "nobody else. I want to talk to you about Norheys.” I was gettmg a little tired of be ing talked to about Norheys. I ad mit that 1 am that young man's god father. hut that does not make me responsible for all his actions. Lord Edmund ought to be capable of look ing ufter Ids own nephew. Then It occurred to me that If Edmund Troyte went on worrying me I might as well huve the satisfaction of wor rying him. I would tell him the story of Emily’s curate and see how he liked being consulted about business which Is none of his. I telephoned my acceptance of his invitation and then went buck to the postcard. It came from Janet Church and announced that she hud got as far us Berlin and meant to go further. Janet was staying In the Adlon ho tel. The address reminded me of Emily’s curate and a really brilliant idea occurred to me. I would giva her a little In return. I wrote her a long letter in which I explained that a really valuable curate had disappeared, having been last heard of at the Adlon hotel In Berlin. I said that foul play was suspected, which I am sure was true. Emily evidently thought that the young man hud gone off on a disrep utable spree, which would have been foul play on his part. Canon‘ Pyke feared that he had been decoyed Into a den of infamy and there robbed— foul play on the part of someone else. I asked Janet to stay a few days longer in Berlin to go Into the matter thoroughly. It was just the sort of thing she ought to do. “ The curate's name,” I wrote, “has unfortunately not been told me. But that won't be any real obstacle. There cannot be many English curates at large in Berlin. I f you find one at all, he'll probably be the one we want. He lias a hearty man ner, Is full of energy and good spirits. In all probability bis face Is round and plump. My sister Emily Is most anxious about him, so I ’m sure you’ll do your best.” Then I wrote to Emily. “ I'm delighted to help In any way I rnn In the good work of finding your lost curate. I am dining with Edmund Troyte this evening and Intend to put the whole case before hint. You can confidently count on everything pos sible being done. I have nlso writ ten to Janet Church, who Is in Ber lin. She Is Just the kind of woman who will find a curate however care fully he is hidden— or, If your suspi cion is Justified, however carefully he has hidden himself. It would he a thousand pities If he were perma nently lost. But we need not antic ipate that. Give my kind regards to the canon.” CHAPTER VI Troyte and I dined very comfort ably and, being wise men, talked about nothing unpleasant until th« business of eating was over. When I had finished my second glass ol port we went Into the library for otir coffee. A servant put a small table before us, set coffee, cognac and cigarettes on It and then went away. I was just about to begin the tale of Emily’s lost curate when Troyte asked me an abrupt question. “ Do you know where Norheys Is?” “ At this hour,” I said, “ he’s gener ally in the Belvedere.” The Belvedere is the theater In which Miss Temple dances. Norheys, unless he has some Important en gagement elsewhere, hangs about her dressing room until her turn is over. Then he drives her home. “ lie's not at the Belvedere to night,” said Troyte. “ In fact, he’s not In town at all.” “ He didn’t say anything to me about going away,” I said, “ but then 1 haven't seen him for the last two days.” “ Nobody has seen him for the last two days,” said Troyte. “ I wanted to speak to him today and I tele phoned to his rooms. Ills man told me that he went away the day be fore yesterday. He left no address, so his letters aren't being forwarded. I made Inquiries at his clubs, hut he left no address at any of them. All hi* man could tell me was that he went off with two suitcase* and the taxi man was ordered to take him to Charing Cross.” Well, In tha circumstance* It do«* **«m a bit Important to know whert la Norhaya.
