"Jealous? Of course I am. I in sist upon knowing." "I promised I wouldn't tell any. one," Pat hesitated. Karl s voice was smoothly persuasive. "But liebchen, we are to be married. You must not have any secrets from your husband." Pat's brown eyes were troubled. "Well, I don't know." Karl took her hand, "You must tell me," he insisted. "I suppose now that we are engaged, it's different" Pat admitted, "Anyway it's really nothing for you to be jealous about. You see, Paul is my brother. He's using an assumed name because some time ago he used to work for the government" "Indeed?" Karl Miller said, rising quickly. "I find that information extremely interesting." It seemed to Joan that Paul was taking an unnecessarily long time looking for the code. She watched impatiently as he rechecked each drawer, wondering at his calm deliberation. "Please hurry, Paul! Let's get out of here." "Queer I can't find it. They must have it here somewhere." "What does it matter now? We have the other evidence. You said these papers incriminate KarL Isn't that enough?"

You act as though you actually enjoy this." His face grew serious. "I don't like it for your sake, Joan. But so far as I'm concerned, it couldn't have worked out better." "WTiat do you mean?" "I counted on Karl's finding us at the beauty shop. I wanted him to. I think he'll lead us to the rest of the gang this way." Joan sat down gingerly on a dirty, faded chintz chair. "But you said those papers were enough." Paul lit a cigarette. "They were, but I still have a few ends to tie. We're not in any actual danger yet Trust me for that." Paul watched Joan as she explored their tiny prison. "You have more nerve than any other girl I ever saw," he said, admiringly, repeating what he had said the night Karl killed Strom and Joan had promised to help trap Karl after Paul revealed he was an FBI man. "My knees are shaWng," Joan admitted, smiling, "but I wouldn't let Karl know how I felt It would give him too much satisfaction." "Good girl!" Paul approved. "And." Joan continued, "this may be your idea of 'no actual danger but it doesn't seem that way to me." The gentle throb of the ship's engines warned them the freighter was moving. "Here we go." Paul said. "Try to trust me, Joan, that this is the best way. I took you with me was tonight deliberately because I worse for would be it that afraid you if you were left behind." "What about Pat?"

Out for a drive in her an elderly lady managed to get involved in some army rnaneu- vers. As she approached a bridge a sentry stopped her. "Sorry, madam, he said; "you can't cross this bridge. It's just been destroyed." The old lady peered at it through her spectacles. "It looks all right to me, she murmured. Then, as another soldier came along, she asked: "Excuse me, but can you tell me what s wrong with this bridge?" The soldier shook his head.

"What have you done with her?" Paul demanded. "Shut up! Give me that envelope. We're getting out of here. Come on, Joan. I'll keep you with me." Paul walked ahead and Karl followed with Joan. His grasp on her arm was painful but she did not wince. She was too proud to let Karl Miller see that he had hurt her. There was a long ride down the Embarcadero. Neither Karl nor Paul spoke. As they went through the warehouse and up the swaying steps of the gangplank, Joan was surprised at her own calmness. She was no longer afraid of Karl Miller. She followed Paul's example of superb may. "! 'r 1 l.'V 7.7 l.-- aw b, w M XI IK?..::-;iJ7.- This, We Find, Was pony-car- thrifty sewing adventure!
