Chris- tine believes that he is a fake. Af- ter the show ends, she remains. Chandra comes to her at once. CHAPTER V "I ani glad you waited," Chan- drabegan with a direct simplicity Christine had not expected. "No doubt," she said icily, "this was a fair exchange. But don't you think you might have .let me in on the plot:" "Miss Thorenson"—his smile was tired—almost, if seemed to Chris- tine, worried—"I suppose there's no way of convincing you that . I really want to help you?" "So yoti do know my naniel But then, of course, you've had pie followed by some of your spies ever since I got off that train--s- perhaps rain—perhaps even before. .

I ought to do—aside frons inspect- ing my baggage for an unmention- able object presumably placed there by a person or persons unknown?" "I could suggest—but it would do no good," he told her wearily, "that if you find—what 1 have rea- son to think you will—you com- municate with me at once, by a messenger I will gladly place at your disposal. I shall then be in a position to advise you." "Thanks a lot," Christine flash- ed. "I'I take my chances on the persons unknown?' * * * As she marched out, she glanced at her watch.... After 11, and she waa a good two miles from home. Well, she needed a brisk walk to clear her hind after all that hocus- pocus. Of course the idea that she could be in any danger was just funny. The whole scenario was ridiculous- ly clear—beginning with that tele- phone girl—and all so crude and bungling, Yet, in spite of her bravado, Christine jumped when a voice said at her shoulder, "it would be you. Don't you know that no girl with eyes and hair like yours is safe from unwelcome attentions on this Boardwalk at night?" "So it seems," Christine said when she could control her voice. "No 'doubt' if you had your way ctufew `would ring at sunset for every wo- man under 80." * * * The bareheaded young man must have run; up the stairway from the beach,for he was breathing quick- ly,'and his hair was rumpled. "Well, he went on with such infectious •pleasure that Christine found ,Herself feeling for the first tone t1,bat,• day that it was marvel- ous to he young and alive, "may- be I'll r,u;ible to enjoy my meals now.

So here's a puddin'—especially spring -timed, and easy to snake be- sides.

She only knew now that she felt more at home with this tanned stranger whom she had met barely 24 hours ago—more warmly glad to see him—than she would have felt with any one she had known a lifetime; and that her pleasure in being with him again was as right and natural as the clean sea breeze. "I'm cold, too," he was going on plaintively. "Something hot to eat would feel right good at this minute —and Decker's is just a comfor- table walk along the Boardwalk. That's the one place in Surf City that doesn't reek with fried pota- toes... . And I hate eating alone. Come on, Miss Thorenson," he wheeled with an engaging grin, "be a good scout." "I'd like to, only."—Christine laughed for the first tune that day —"except that the fellers call you I don't know your :name." "I answer much more docilely to 'Bill,' but if I forgot to mention it, the rest of it's Yardley," he told her. Then he added with someth- ing behind the smile in his eyes that made her catch her breath, "I hope you're going to like it." * * * While they were waiting at the table Bill had found by a window that overlooked the sea, Bill said, "It occurs to me that there's a lot about me besides my name that you don't know. I raise horses for a liv- ing—mighty fine horses. But the market wasn't too good this year; so I took over the riding school here. You see, I've had a handi- cap over you all along. When I heard you say you were Mrs. Tal- bert's cousin. I knew you wouldn't be interested in lifting my watch." "If you'd known the whole truth," Christine said wryly, "you'd pro- bably have kept your hand on that watch.... Not that I'm not Mrs. Talbert's cousin; but there've been occasions—not so long ago—when a nice 17 -jeweled watch would have made my fingers itch." "Christine," he said abruptly, '.'something's worrying you. billy ndt get it out of your system "You'll -probably 'latish," tl is- tine 1 Ce'i ad a feeing all along that I ought to; but somehow nny sense of humor doesn't seem to be work- ing this week -end." * >r * Yet when she did tell him the whole story of that preposterous day, he did not laugh. Instead, he frowned over his cig- aret, "So Chandra took a hand? That bird cuts a pretty wide swathe. People come here to con- sult him about everything from the baby's first tooth to the outcome of the presidential election: financiers, successful writers and artists and actors; political bosses, social reg- isterites. They say he used to be an actor, He's probably part psy- chologist, part mystic, part shrewd business man, and part stage man- ager. I've never heard of his being involved in anything really shady. In fact, if Chandra told me to go home and look under my bed for Barntun's elephant, I'm not sure I wouldn't take a chance." They had left the restaurant, aril had strolled back to the Twentieth Century Pier., Suddenly Bill broke off, "Look — there's something wrong!"
