They are afraid of that," ahe said trimly, "afraid nf It because they know that a world peace would put an end to their trade of secret di-plomacy. That la why I want to be Introduced to Count Caslmlr." It wnt a little difficult for Tommy to follow the working of her mind. I do not know that any one at that time could hare guessed exactly what ahe meant. Looking hack over the whole thing now It aeema pluln that with the help of Caslmlr ahe Imped to get Into Lyatrla without a pHxaport. He waa. as ahe hnd some-how in ii linked to discover, a conaplr-nto- r and a secret agent.

Tommy again meets Janet In a telephone booth, where ha had gone In an attempt to aecapa from Caalmlr. least wont to Introduce Janet Church to any one. He did not at that mo-ment even know her name. He did not want to see any more of Count Caalmlr. He did not want But a curate Is only a man, and though Tommy had no Intention of entan-gling himself with an unknown lady at the Mascotte, he thought It might be Interesting to see her, speak to her, perhaps to offer her a glass of wine. Tommy was Inexperienced In such matters, but he thought that any lady to bs met at the Mascotte would probably expect to be offered a glass of wine. "Of course," said Janet, "I have more or lets made Count Caslnilr's acquaintance already." 8he was thinking of her Interview with him In the corridor outside Tommy's bed-room. "But It's always better to have a formal Introduction," she added. Tommy waa not paying much at-tention to what she said. He was thinking of the lady at the Mascotte and wondering whether his phrase book provided the German for "May dlctlvely. "and Lord Fdmund Troyte will be furious. Bu the first thing Is to get to Lystrla. And Count Caa-lmlr can do that for me if he will." "I've no doubt that he will," said Tommy politely. "I'm very glad to hear you nay that, for, of course, you know." ' "I don't know In the least," snld Tommy. "I don't really know any-thing. Indeed, If you asked me this minute, I could not tell you where Lystrla Is." Tommy finished the last sip of his cocktail. He felt elated and ex-tremely cheerful. "In Introducing you this evening," be said, "shall I tell Caslmlr all about the world peace and the Christian churches, or shall I simply say that you're my aunt?" "I am averse to any form of t." said Janet. But" "There are times" said Tommy. "He might not grasp the full of my mission to Lystrla." "Then Td better tell hlra you're my aunt," said Tommy, "unless you'd rather I said sister." Janet looked at Tommy. He la only twenty-si- x and looks younger, owing no doubt to the virtuous life he has had to lead under the eye of my sister Emily. Janet la superior to the' desire to appear younger' than she la, which Is supposed to be weakness of her Bex. "You'd better say aunt." she said. "Very well," said Tommy. "My aunt, who Is looking after me." "A young man," said Janet, "la the better ofT having an aunt to look after him In a city like Berlin. I feel sure that the Mascotte Is a dangerous and undesirable place." e e e e e a a At half past nine Tommy drove up to the door of the Mascotte. He was received by a stately man In a hand-some uniform and led up a flight of thickly carpeted marble stairs. At the top he was handed over to a su-percilious young lady with slartling-l-y red Hps and very pallid cheeks, who took his overcoat and hat front him. Under the guidance of another splendidly clad retainer he passed In-to a very large and most Impressive room. The lights were dim and faint-ly pink. The air was heavily scented. Tommy looked round him a little nervously. He hoped that he might see Janet Church. Her companion-ship would have sustained and helped him. Hut she was not there. Except for sir servitors In gold and purple clothes, there was no one In the room. Two 'of these men took charge of Tommy. They walked one on each side of him, both a little In front of hlni. They conducted him across the room. At the far side of It they halt-ed In front of a pair of heavy cur-tains wj'h'h hung over an archway. With a solemn and dignified sweep of their arms they pulled the curtains apart to right nnd left. Then, bow-ing low, they motioned Tommy to pass on. He entered a still larger room, very brilliantly lighted, so brilliant-ly lighted that for a minute he stood blinking, unable to see distinctly. (TO BB CONTINUED.) CHAPTER VIII Continued The door of the telephone box opened and Janet Church cartfe out. Caslmlr, like Tommy, recognized her at once, though he had only seen her once before and then In a dressing gown and boudoir cap. He was not particularly pleased. Perhaps she had talked to him In the morning as she had been talking to the third secretary at the embassy. HeTbowed to her, but he moved away. "Please," he said to Tommy, "half ten at the Mascotte. Till then" He pulled himself together and pro-duced another quotation. ""Now, good digestion welt on appetite, nnd health on both.' " With another bow he turned, crossed the hall and passed the whirling glass door, narrowly escap-ing a determined effort of the guard-Ia-boy to hit him In the back. Janet Church watched him till he vanished. Then ahe turned to Tom-my. "I've been asking questions about that young man," she said, "and I find he's In Berlin on some kind of secret mission connected with the as king of Lystrla." "Oh, Is he?" said Tommy. "I thought he was a tout for a night club." "In These Continental Towns," She Said, "If Generally Dangerous to Drink Water." I offer you a glass Champagne, he supposed, was the proper wine to offer to a lady at the Mascotte. The waiter whom Janet had chased away when they first sat down was hotering round the table again. With a recklessness which surprised him-self Tommy ordered: "Bring two cocktails." Janet turned on him with an add smile. "It's rather unusual," she snld, 'to find a curate drinking cocktails at ten o'clock in the morning. If you really are a curate you wouldn't do that." The waiter, who was Interested In the4r talk, was very quick In fetch-ing their cocktails. He set them down on a little tray In front of Tommy. Janet looked at hers with a fierce scowl. Tommy pushed the "That's what he pretends to be perhaps," said Janet, "but he Is strongly, suspected of being engaged In some royalist plot. The third sec-retary at our embassy told me so this morning." If the third secretary had been In-discreet enough to tell Janet Church anything about anybody It must have been before she began talking to him about her passports. No young man, unless be was reduced to terror by threats of violence would have spok-en to her at all afterward. But I do not think it at all likely that any diplomatist, even a third secretary, would have shouted confidential In-formation Into a telephone. It seemed to me much more likely that Janet Church had been making inquiries about Caslmlr from the head waiter or the hall porter. All porters of ho-tels like the Adlon know a great many things, both true and untrue. "I suppose he's a friend of yours," said Janet. "No, he Isn't," snld Tommy. "I mean neither of them Is." He was uncertain at the moment whether she was speaking of Count Caslmlr or the third secretary. "Just come over with me to a quiet place," said Janet. "1 want to talk to you." Tommy followed her, unwillingly, to a retired corner of the hall, and sat down beside her on a deep sofa. A waiter hovered round them and asked whether they wanted cocktails. Janet drove him away at once. "I'm not asking you to tell me who you are," she said, "or what you're doing here." "I don't in the least mind telling you. I'm a curate and I'm In Berlin for a holiday." "Vry well," said Janet grimly, "and Count Caslmlr is a restaurant tout, and Tm the prima ballerina of the Royal opera bouse In Vienna." . Janet prides berself on the power of sarcasm. "Surely," said Tommy, "yen can't bo " thing toward her. She looked at It again with a milder scowl. Tommy took It off the tray and set It down before her. Janet stopped scowling. "In these continental towns," she said, "It's generally dangerous to drink the water." It Is the British teetotaler who Is responsible for the superstition that all the water on the continent of Europe Is poisonous. Having accept-ed that as an article of faith he holds to It firmly. He is, therefore, entire-ly against his will, obliged to drink wine when he crosses the English channel. Janet tossed off her cocktail. Tom-my, who did not know that cocktails ought to be swallowed In a single gulp, sipped his. Now, the effect of cocktails taken on almost empty stomachs by people unused to wine of any sort is sur-prising. Janet became confidential. She told Tommy that the officials of the British Foreign office had con-spired together to prevent her going to Lystrla, and that Lord Edmund m(' PricedSedan to IQ with 0 I SUdingGsar 1 Transmission 1 R EASY TERMS J 07IRLAHD all roira STEEL DOOR SEDAN DEALERS EVERYWHERE A8w9ttBnath at alt times After eatlne o aklaf, and siavererM the breath.

Authority on Cardt The expression "according to Hoyle refer lo Edmond Hoyle, a writer on games, who was born In England in 1672. Little Is known about Iloyle's life. Tradition says he was educated for the bar. At any rate, he went to London, where he spent much of his time writing on games and giving les-sons In card playing, especially whist. He published a book in which he sys-tematized the laws and rules of whist, a game on which he was considered an authority. His name became prover-bial as an authority on games. Playing a game "according to Hoyle" came to mean playing It fair and ac-cording to the recognized rules. Hoyle died In London In 1789. Kansas City Star.
