It night have happened; and if it didn't happen., then I'm damned if I know what did, or what is happening at this moment." Brendon delayed his answer and his 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 obviously nay duty." "Good boy. And now we'll 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 Shakespearian oritic and biographer of King Edward, Sir Sidney Lee, who died reoently, was undoubtedly wise in changing 'h1 name from Lazarus to Lee, which' he did, on Dr. Jowett's ad- vice, when at Oxford. A publisher once sat in his office to interview the writer of a manuscript, which his 'reader had des�eribed as "a. novel of rare passion and power, prob- ably the work of a woman of mature experience." When a girl of seven- teen was ushered in, the publisher de- clined to discuss the book with her— he wanted to see the author. "I ani the author," the astonishing young person replied; and the pub- lisher then set to work to invent a pen name for her which would tare the public fancy. The lady is now known all over the world as "Victoria Cross." Then take the case of fascinating Claire Windsor, of film fame.

"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 lodger." After luncheon Mr. Ganns set off— in ffin a white waistcoat and other adorn-. rents; 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 simulation of ill health are most painful to the," he declared. "I am exceeding well to- day and all the better for our delight- ful dinner of last night. For nobody' less than dear Peter would I ever sink to pretend anything; it is contrary to my nature and disposition so 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 him in the dining room for a while. Jenny said nothing.

"Did you see him—right in the path —Robert Redmayne?" But the other only stared at Gins seppe and peered forward. "I saw nothing," he said; where- upon like lightning, the Italian's man ner changed.
