The dawti was breaking into full day, and the rpirits of the trio rose with the sun. The black hours in and near that hillside shack seemed to Tait like a bad dream. He turned to Myma. "Feeling better?" "Yes ... a little." "Anne and I have decided you should sleep some more, though in my " apartment. Another 20 minutes and well be there." But when Tait arrived at his apartment building he decided that caution would be the better part of. valor. Instead of parking near the entrance way, he drove around to the alley. "I'm going up and hae a look. It may be that Dannie Feeley's got suspicious and has someone waiting wait-ing for my return. You girls sit tight here in the car." He grinned at Myrna. "And I expect to find you here when I get back." She managed to return a smile. Til be here," she said. ... Tait hurried up the back stairway stair-way of the apartment, slowing down only when he reached his floor. Quietly he opened the door from the back landing into the long halL To his relief, no patrol-ir.g patrol-ir.g stranger was in sight.

"You see, I came last night. ou hadn't arrived, and I per suaded the janitor that I was a friend cf yours. I hope I didn't exaggerate, Tait." "It's not necessary to exaggerate with the janitor if you've a $5 bill," Tait said. "I really expected .that you'd return and then somehow I fell asleep in that very comfortable chair. I hope you'll forgive me. But under all the circumstances . . . " His voice trailed off, and he made a gesture which said that Tait would unquestionably, understand. under-stand. "What can I do for you?" Tait was still standing. He was puzzled at Rogers' curious visit, was nervous nerv-ous about the two girls in the car. Suppcre they grew disturbed at hisi long absence, and walked into thepartment to investigate? "I I don't want to rush you, Rogers. But the fact is, I've an early appointment." ap-pointment." Again Rogers smiled. "I won't be long. Here's the point, Tait. I've known you for quite a while, and I've always liked you. Somehow Some-how I got the impression, down there at the Pacific Plaza last night, that you were interested in this terrible business." "Interested? How do "you mean?" . - ' "Well, curious, then. I can understand un-derstand that. After all, you're a newspaper man by training. You've been at the finish of a lot of things like this. But this is one that I wouldn't get worried about, Bob." . -r" fpiIEy seemingly mild suggestion A startled Tait. "You you're not giving me warning, are you?" "Of course not" Harris Rogers laughed disparagingly. "It's just a friendly tip. And, frankly, it's for my sake as well as yours." "I see ..." Tait drew cigarets from his pocket and offered the pack to Rogers. Then, carelessly, he closed the door into the hall. Turning, he said, "Now we're getting get-ting somewhere. What's really on your mind?" , - "Just this. As you know, I managed man-aged Dombey himself as well as The Swingateers I'd like to see the, band go on, both because it means a good spot for me, and because be-cause of of I.Irs. Dombey. Poor Lud is dead. I don't know who killed him. I'd like to get my hands on him but I think it's more important to keep things go-ingIor go-ingIor the girl he loved And I'm telling you, Tait, if they start investigating in-vestigating all over the placid there'll be a bad mess of publicity. public-ity. That wouldn't be good for either the girl or her business." "Her business?" "Of course you didn't know but Dombey made her a partner in Swingateers. She's liable for the debts of a corporation, and there are plenty." Rogers held his palms upward. "I tried to control Lud, but he was impossible when he was on a spending spree. Never realized that the money couldn't last forever. But with luck, Tait, I can bring things into shape, keep Myrna from getting into a mess, and probably make her wealthy." Tait was silent a moment. Then: "I get the idea. But I don't quite see how it would help to stop investigating in-vestigating Dombey's murder. I'm afraid that Dannie Feeley couldn't see your argument." "Naturally not. The police will keep on investigating. But it's a tough case. You know that. It may slide along for considerable time.- - The photographer smiled. "In other words, you figure that the fewer who "are 'interested,' as you put it a moment ago, the less chance of getting the reputation of Dombey and the band dirtied UP" "That is it precisely. 1 thought you'd see it my way." . HPAIT shook his head. "But I A don't see it your way, Rogers. In the first place, the most logical suspect that the police have right now is Mrs. Dombey. Until they can get some leads elsewhere she's going to have a bad time. In the second place, I'm not at all certain cer-tain that she's interested in the money you can make for her with Lud's reputation and his band " "Do you know her well enough to be sure of that?" Rogers wanted to know. "It occurs to me that their acquaintance before marriage mar-riage was rather short." ' Ignoring the remark, Tait proceeded: pro-ceeded: "In the third place, Rogers, Rog-ers, all I have is your word that Dombey's affairs are in a mess and that his past might not look well in print.". "And you doubt my word. Is that it?" "No not just yet, at any rate. You might give some notion of what you mean and then IH be glad to tell you whether I'm willing will-ing to believe it." Rogers' face darkened. "All right, Tait. I can tell you plenty . . ."The manager of The Swingateers Swing-ateers dropped indolently to the arm of the chair. "I think that when I'm finished youll be ready to forget that Lud Dombey was killed." - (To Be Continued) ' I . "If t at m . u L'fcvj, - a , V .,' w a . . v m.

In Russia, where it was desired to increase cross-pollcni-zatlon, bees have been trained to like those flowers which they previously disliked. This was done . by feeding ; the beea on ayrup from the flowers they did not frequent.
