spy, and not a mero prisoner of wee.
There was no place for coneealnaent 1

stairs, in the attic, or on the roof.
The chance was worth the trial, and
there could be no better time for Mich

servanta remained about the 'house
would be busily employed algo, and
probably I ehould have the entire tip-
per portion to myself. Deciding to
make the venture I had my hand ofl
the knob of the door. when it was
opened quietly from without, and I
was startled by the sudden appearance
of Peter. Whatever excitement may
have prevailed among the other mem-
bers of this peculiar household this
model servitor remained with dignity
unruffled. He* surveyed me calmly,
rubbing his bald head with one hand.
• "You will pardon the delay, sir," he
said calmly: ,"But circumstances have
arisen changing the original plans.
Will you kindly accompany me?"
• "But where, Peter? I don't wish to
be seen by these new arrivals."
"Have no fear, sir," condescending-
ly, and with an authoritative wave of
the hand. "The officers are at table,
end will -know nothing of our move-
ments." .
I followed 'meekly enough, and he
led the way up the broad stairs to the
second story, turning to the left in the
upper hall, and coming to a pa,use be-
fore a partially opened door. A:glimpse
within made me deem it a music room,
although I could see merely along one
wall.
"You will enter, sir, while I return
to the guests below." '
With one glance into this perfectly
expressionless countenance, half sus-
picious of: some new trick, I stepped
across the threshold. The curtains
Were drawn, and the room seemed
dark after the sun -glare of the hall. I
advanced a step or two, almoill

I swung about as on a pivot and saw
her standing with one hand upon the
high .back of a chair, her blue eyes
smiling merrily. I felt the hot rush of
blood to my cheeks, the quick throb of
pulse, with which I recognized her. I
was so surprised that, for the instant,
the words I sought to utter choked in
my throat.
"You have not suspected?" she
asked. "You did not know this was
My home?"
"Nothing was farther from my

EMULSION

A Carelessly Treated Cold
is the source of most sickness because drugged
pills, syrups and alcoholic mixtures are
uncertain and unsafe.
Scott's Emulsion has been relied upon by
physicians for forty years as the safe and sensible
remedy to suppress the cold and build up the
enfeebled forces to avert throat and lung troubles.
Don't tolerate alcoholic substitutes, but insist
on the Genuine Seollos Emulsion. One bottle usually
lasts longer than a cold. Every druggist has it.‘ ngs
