failed to return at a designated time;
carefully examined his service revolv-

the business suit he decided to wear.
Satisfied with these arrangemeots, he
dressed rapidly, and then packed his
bag, bearing It in nis hand as he de-
parted in ample time for tee point of

place designated, and he found him-
self alone in a rather desolate spot,
with which he was In no way famil-

but hes being requested to bring a
bag containing evening clothes, some-
how suggested riding, rather than
walking, and consequently his eyes
followed more or less Intently the con-

He grew restless and doubtful as the
moments slipped. past. Then suddenly,
without the slightest warning, a black
limousine Whirled in alongside the
curb, and came to a stop lmnledlately
In front of where he waited. The
chauffeur, dressed In plain dark livery,

thoroughly to that disposition for ad-
venture of which you wrote."
"Nothing more could be desired, I
am sure," he confessed, surprised at
her tone, and glancing toward her. "I
certainly am left completely In the
dark, unable even to clearly distin-
guish my mysterious companion In
adventure." •
"And there really Is no longer any
occaside for such concealment," She
lifted the heavy curtain beside her,
permitting the grey light to rest upon
her face. "I preferred not to be seen
at the park for obvious reasons; but
here, alone with you, such precaution
Is quite unnecessary. We are to be
either friends or enemies, so frankness
Is the best course."
He saw the face of a young woman
of twenty-four, or five, with dark eyes
and heir, her cheeks flashed with
health and excitement, her lips smil-
ing. It was n face of unusual attrac-
tiveness, not regular, perhaps, in any
of Its features, yet filled with charac-
ter, and gloving with life. He liked the
girl, and believed In her.
"I con Duly thank you," he said,
rather lamely. "Although I do not
understand now how we could ever
become enemies, Sorely, that is not a
threat?'

Georgia, Your mother, who was of
the well-known Bullock family, died
when you were about fifteen, and her
Widowed sister has sinee been the
housekeeper. You are n graduate of
the University of Virginia, being
fourth 'in your class in scholarship.
Your engineering course was come
pleted in Massachusetts, and you later
became connected with the Wyant
Contracting company, of Chicago. You
were here, however, only a very brief
time, making but few acquaintances,
when the war broke out. You im-
mediately entered the tlrst officers'
training school at Fort Sheridan, grad-
uating with the rink of first lieuten-
ant, and were assigned to a regiment
of engineers, among the earliest to
sell for France. While there you were
wounded twice, and cited once for
special gallantry In the rescue of n
seriously Injured private. Your last
wound caused your return to the
United States on a special mission,
and also won you the rank of captain.
Since then you have been honorably
discharged, but have made no effort
to resume protesslohal work. You
are twenty-slx, and unmarried. Is
there anything else you care to
know?"
"I think not; really your agency has
been most elfelent. And so this re-
view satisfied you that I was really the
man you sought?"
"No t did not wltoll satisfy, but it
i c n Y Y,
looked promising. You were evidently
courageous, and a gentleman. These
qualities were essential; whether in
ether respects you measured upto
my
purpose, could only be ascertained
through a personal interview. There
was n0 other way."
"And now?" he persisted.
"Still encouraging, I must admit,
although the test Is not yet complete.
However, we are now approaching the
end of our journey. Before we turn
in I ant going to tisk a favor of you -
call me Natalie."
"Natalie; that will be easy."
"And also forgive me if I fail In
always addressing you formally ns
Captain West. I presume your friends
511,3' Matt, do they not'?"
";lone Have that habit."
"Then I claim else the privilege."
She bewildered him, left hila In won-
derment as to what she would do next,
hut there wns scarcely time in which
to 111)81•er before the speeding limou-
sine turned abruptly into a private
