"But you wont If you Jump at conclusions tho way you did this morning. If I were a malefactor in this household, your findings on that would reaasure me very much." Hale returned the smile. Then get what comfort out of It you can," he said very deliberately. He carried from tho room an unpleasant memory of Craig's raised eyebrows and inscrutable expression. On the outer landing he stopped with a alight exclamation. The mortal remains of Daisy had disappeared. He looked around carefully. The eati body might have been pushed off tho landing and down the atalra during his brief but spirited combat with Craig. There was no sign of it now, either on the staircase or on the floor below. Ho tapped on the laboratory door, pushed it partly open, and put his head around the aide. Craig eras sitting exactly as ha had left him. The lata lamented la no longer lying hero in state," Hale reported. What do you suppose has happened to her?" Craig came to the door and looked around.

Tho smile Irritated Hale, and at the same time sent a slight chill down his back. So would that cobra have smiled, if cobras could smile. Having eight lives left I suppose Daisy got up and went about her business," Hale said curtly. Hale felt sore, both physically and mentally, as he descended the laboratory staircase and returned to his own room. Aunt Hosanna greeted his return, to tho camp with hospitable warmth. Mrs. Spencer Forbes was openly enthusiastic. Bert gave him a perfunctory nod and did not speak at all during luncheon. Hale was shocked by the young mans condition. Every muscle in his face seemed twitching and his eyes were those of a tortured animal. Hales Ups set With Herbert Kneels nd matters were certainly approaching a crisis.

Yet he doesn't give the boy a decent allowance. Wilbur says that Bert often has to borrow a few dollars from him, because he's se short of cash. "1 hadn't seen Uncle Cass for years till I turned up this summer. There was nothing close about him when I was a kid. Hale was recalling his agreement with Knee-lanHe was getting his board, his room, and a hundred dollars a month. James Banks was probably receiving as much. A hundred dollars a month was not a liberal salary, even in depression times, for an experienced young civil engineer who had been earning ten thousand a year. But b was not engineering now, and ha was glad to have that hundred dollars a month and his comfortable quarters at the Camp. In return fbr them, however, ho was acting as secretary, amateur sleuth, and game leader. The reflection reminded him that he had been neglecting his social duties. He got up to go. I'm supposed to lead 'the gaieties at Halcyon Camp," he confessed. "It takes some doing.

" A man came around the aide of tho house and waved a Panama hat at Mrs. Nash. She greeted him as a brother and introduced him to Halo as Doctor Nicholas Crosby. She added that he had a camp two miles further up the shore. Halo sat down again for a few minutes and studied Crosby with interest He had heard of him. Crosby dropped into a chair, accepted tea tea, and took Bex in with a dear, wide-eye- d glance. "Youre with Kneeland, he said, or something, arent "Nephew you? Godson.
