When either his bachelor household or bis literary s labors wera going aglee, he went to Aunt Sue for advice, and found It. His latest trouble was a failure to ; concentrate In the noisy apartment r be had recently rented. When phono} 1 graphs or pianos were at peace, other 1 I distractions would arise claiming bis p annoyed attention. "I'll quit the place soon as 1 can , find other quarters," Stewart said. "But in the meantime?" "In the meantime" Aunt 8n? Inter. rupted, "you shall go oa with the writing of your book la Doctor Jes rap's suburban bungalow. Doctor hai > long been a friend of mlfie and left t the key of the place with me, while attending some medical convention. It's the very spot for quiet work, beautifully Isolated in a waned gar* den." As usual, Aunt Sue's solution was a wise one. Stewart Ogden felt a serfse of relaxation the moment he entered the silent, tasteful llylng room. Stewart's book grew steadily In volome and Interest, as the evening passed. He was enjoying himself lmmensely. "Only twelve," he mused as a chime v caught his ear. "I shall be able to 1 work on for two hours yet." ' Then Stewart beheld a strange tab* lean. It was as though he, In the shadowy living room, with its shaded llglit^above the desk, were gazing at a movie screen, with actors registered there, Instead of Into the severe white laboratory. For into this laboratory came suddenly a man stockily built, with a cap drawn down on his face, an? as, instinctively, Stewart snapped off the solitary light, the capped and cloaked figure sank to the floor before the safe, and began ' with directed torch to study its casings. Stewart, breathlessly observing, could read the Inscription "Doctor Jessup" on the safe; noiselessly he slipped into the square opening beneath the desk and awaited developments. The next | move of the picture was more surprising. A girl came swiftly into the square of licht, and as the man worked on at the safe's combination she made quick Inventory of both office and living room. Her cursory glance about both momentarily lighted apartments apparently reassured her. "You were right, Steve," she said. "There Is no one here. 1 looked through the rest of the house as I came. Now, hurry!" The man jumped to his feet Impatiently. "I can't make It," he grumbled. "Must have mixed the numbers. Trj It, OInny, and?hurry yourself l" Instantly the girl was upon her knees. She laughed a triumphant, whispered sort of laugh as the safedoor responded. Skillfully she drew 0 ' * ' ' ' -.t X ' . , \ \ X r co., / .-t ; . iL?. ^Vv1 ^yv-r- ? ' ^ from the" Interior various packages. "There yon are, Steve," she murmured. '!And that had better be all for tonight Get on your way quickly!" ? The min stood looking down upon her as she dropped the securities Into a bag hft-held. "Please, come along, Glney," he said. I' "Silly!" she exclaimed. "You will be able to make that train easier if I am not with ,you. And if you cannot get back ali right, I am not afraid of anyt^|pg. "Fearless Glnny, yon know," she (quoted to him. Reluctantly, the big fellow lingered. "Sometimes," he complained, "I wish you would be arraia, umny. Before Stewart In hit hiding place could realize what to do, the girl had pressed her companion out through the door and locked It after him. Stewart's decision was promptly made. Though the actual culprit had , been allowed to escape, he determined now to hold safely the accomplice; ^to him "Fearless Glnny" should make both explanation and restoration. When his arms closed swiftly about . her, after one sharp glance Into hla face, Fearless Glnny bore out her name. Calmly she rested against Stewart's shoulder. "Well," sho asked amusedly, "what , are you going to do with ine?" s "I am going," he decidedly answered, "to telephone the police-." "The police have no terror for me," she rfaocked. "In two minutes 1 can make them believe me Innocent." , She looked up at him saucily. "They'd be mere likely to suspect you," she said. Awkwardly, Stewart Ogden led his i charge over to t^ie divan; the telephone was within reach. The girl curled ber lingers In frieiftly manner through bis detathing aftn. i "I would not call up If I were you, Mr. Author," she advised. "I'm not such a desperate character after all. Fearless Glnny'is Just brother Steve's name for me. To your dear Annt Sue .1 am known as Miss Doctor Virginia ** - I o fenht Jessup. neiurueu uuupc<.?wj nvu. a medical convention.
