BEGIN HERE TO -DAY.
Mark Brendon, criminal investi-
gator, is trying to solve the mystery
of the disappearance of Michael, hus-
band of Jenny Pendean. Jenny's uncle,
Robert Redmayne, is missing and sus-
pected of murder.
Jenny goes to live with her uncle,
Bondigo Redlcneyne. Robert visits
Bendigo's neighborhood and sends
word to his brother to meet him in a
nearby cave. Giuseppe Doria, who
works for Bendigo, takes his master
to the meeting place. When Doria calls
to bring Bendigo home he finds an
empty cave.
Jenny marries Doria and they go
to live in Italy, where Jenny's uncle,
Albert Redmayne, lives. Robert is seen
in Italy. Peter Ganns, famous Amer-
ican .detective, assists Brendon in his
investigations. Brendon meets Robert
and the latter shoots at the detective.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY.
Brendon demurred. "Remember,
I'm not a stranger to him, Ganns. I
saw and spoke with him by the pool
in Poggintor-Quarry before the mur-
der;"
"What of it? You've never spoken
with him since; and, what's more,
you've never seen hint since, either.
You've seen a forgery. It was a forg-
ery that looked at you on ypur way
hack to Dartmouth in the moonlight.
It was a forgery that robbed the farm
3or food and lived in the cave and cut
Bendigo Redmayne's throat. It was
a forgery that tried to shoot you and
missed."
Itis Ganns took snuff again and
continued.
"Mind," concluded Peter, who had
early ewer
,urs, "I'm not saying that I am right.
len only saying that, wild though it
sounds. it fits and makes a logical
story even though that story beats all
experience. It might have happened;
andif it didn't happen, then I'm
dammed if I ItnowWhat did, or what is
happening at this moment."
Brendon delayed his answer and his
y n
face was racked with many poignant
emotions.
"I can't believe it," he replied at
length, in a voice which indicated the
extent of his mental amazement and
perturbation; "but I shall nevertheless
do exactly as you direct. That is well
within my power and obviouslymy
duty."
"Good boy. And now well have
something to eat. You've got it clear?'
The time is all important."
Mark scanned his notebook in which
he had made voluminous entries. Then
he nodded and shut it.
Suddenly Mr, Ganns laughed. The

other's book reminded him of an inci-
dent.
"A funny little thing happened yes-
terday afternoon that I forgot," he
said. "I'd turned in, leaving my note-
book
otebook by my head, -when there came a
visitor to my room. I was asleep all
right, but my heaviest sleep won't hold
through the noise of a fly on the win-
dowpane; and lying with niy face to
the deor I heard a tiny sound and lift-
ed one eyelid. The door opened and
Signor Doria put his nose in. Over he
came as quiet as a spider, and I let
hits get within a yard. Then I yawned
and shifted. He was gone like a mos-
quito, and half an. hour later I heard
him again. But I got up and he didn't
do more than listen outside. He want-
ed that book bad—you can ghees how
bad."
For two days Mr. Ganns declared
that he must rest; and_ then there came
an evening when he privately invited
Daria to take a walk.
"There's a few things I'd like to
put to you,»' -he said. "You needn't
let on to anybody, else.'about it and
we won't start together. You know
my favorite stroll up the hill. Meet
me at the corner—say seven o'clock."
Giuseppe gladly agreed.
They .ascended the hill side by side
and the elder invited Doria's aid.
"Between ourselves," he began, "I
am not too well pleased with the way
this inquiry is panning out. In plain
words there's some dope coming be-
tween Ms.rk and his work, and I
should like to hear what you think of
him, you being an independent witness
and a pretty shrewd cussee
"Marco is in love with my wifee"
answered. Giuseppe calmly. "That is
what's the matter with hint. And, as
I don't trust my wife in this affair
and still believe that she knows more
about the red man than anybody else,
I think, as long as she hoodwinks
Brendon, he will be no manner of use
to you."
Peter pretended to be much aston-
ished.
They proceeded slowly and Peter
kept the ball of conversation rolling
while he pretended to be ° very busy
with his plans and projects:
Then a very strange thing 'happen-
ed.
happened. For there stood Robert Redmayne,
his great, redhead and huge mustache
thrusting out of the gloom. Ire stared
quite motionless. His hands were by
his sides; the stripes of his tweed
jacket could be seen and the .tilt but
tons on the 'familiar red waistcoat.
Doria started violently, then stiffen-
ed. For a moment he failed to conceal
his surprise and cast one look of evi-
dent horror and amazement at the
apparition.
"What's wrong?" asked Peter.
"Did you see hinl—right in the path
-Robert Redmayne?"
But the. other only stared at Giu-
seppe and peered forward.
"I saw nothing," he `said; where-
upon like lightning, the Italian's man-
ner changed. His concern vanished
and he laughed aloud.
"What a fool—what a fool am I! It
was the shadow of the shrine!"
Gangs instantly dismissed the • sub-
ject and appeared to attach no iniporte
ance whatever to it; but Doria's mood
was altered: He became less expan-
sive and more alert.
"We'll turn now," announced Peter
half an hour afterward. "You're a
smart lad and you've given me a
bright thought or two. We must lec-
ture Mark."

For the night immediately following
Doria's experience at the old shrine,.
Albert Redmayne and bis friend, Vir-
gin() Poggi, had accepted Meek Bren-
don's invitation to dine at the Hotel
Victoria, where he still stayed,

"You did the trick to a miracle," he
?said, "You're a 'born actor, xn.y•see,

with it just as well as mortal man

hoped. Well, Doria was fine. We

Robert Redmayne, it got him in the
SolarHiatus—T'm doggone sure of
that. For just a moment he slipped,
but how could he help it?
"You see the beauty of his dilemma.
If he'd been straight,he'd have gone
for yell; but he wasn't straight. He
knew well enough that his Rabert•Red-
znayne--•the forgery—wasn't on the
warpath to -night; and when T said I
saw nothing, he pulled himself to-
gether and swore he hadn't either.
And the next second he realized what
he had done! But too late. I had my
hand on my shooting iron in my pocket
after that, I can tell you!"
Peter then indicated his purpose.
"He'll not guess we're moving quite
so quickly • and, by so doing, we antici-
pate his stroke, That; at least, is
what I mean to attempt with your
help, if possible. To -night and to
morrow morning I keep beside Albert;
then you must do so; because, after
lunch, I have a meeting with the local
police down the lake at Como. The
warrant will be waiting for me and I
shall return after dark in one of the

shall come up with lights out and land

"Your part will be to keep Albert
in sight and watch the others."
An hour later the detectives saw
Signor Poggi to , his boat and then
walked home with Mr. Redmayne.
Peter had provender concealed about
his person and presently he explained
to his friend that things were now
conte to a climax.
At the villa Brendon left them- and
Jenny welcomed her uncle. The girl
begged Mark to come in for a while
before returning; but it was late and
Mr. Ganns declared that everybody
must retire.
Mark presented himself early on the
following day. And it was Jenny who
first saw him. Then Peter ' Gamna
joined them.
"How is uncle " asked Mr. Red-
mayne's niece, and Albert's friend de-
clared the old book lover found himself
indisposed.
Ganns then announced his intention
of going later._ta.. the town of Como,
and he invited Doria and Brendon to
accompany 'him; but Mark, already
familiar with the part he had to play,
declined, while Giuseppe also declared
himself' unable to take the trip.
"I must make ready to return to
Turin," he said. "The world does not
stand still. while Signor Pietro is
catching his red man. I have business,
and there is nothing to keep . me here
any longer."
After luncheon Mr. Ganns set off—
in a white waistcoat and other adorn
raents; Giuseppe also . left the villa,
promising to return in a few hours;
and Brendon' joined Albert in his
sleeping apartment.
Redmayne was dressed and lying
on a couch beside the window.
"This subterfuge and siinulation of
ill health are most painful to me," he
declared. "I am exceeding well to-
day and all the better for our delight-
ful diii.ner of last night. For nobody
less than dear Peter would I ever sink
'to pretend anything it contrary to
my nature and dispositicnso to. do."
Doria returned for a while during
the afternoon. He drank wine, ate
fruit and addressed most of his con-
versation to Brendon, who spoke with
hint in the dining room for a while.
-Jenny , said` nothing. • Then i)oria
turned 'to. her and bade her pack his
clothes..

Insects' Sense of Smell.
Many inseets have a keen sense of
amen. A piece of decaying meat so
covered that it can not be seen will,
on a warm day, attract numerous flies,
eoni-e of which apparently scent .it at a
dietance where no odor is discernible
to man.
Many of the social insects recognize
the members of their householdd by
snmell, and the male of some Species
seeke his mets by the olfactory sense! 1,
Among insects Abe organs of emelt
