But the din- .yooms of Madame Polinska's 'house was cool and shadowy and frag- bowls placed on the table and bui- The dark, beamed ceiling was rest- ful to the eye after the glare of the sun light and the opened French windows showed a brief vista of a cool green strip of garden. The luncheon, perfectly served and perfectly prepared as always, consisted solely of cold dishes which Nan spec. ially liked. She remarked to her hostess how pleasant it was and what a relief from her own small apartment where the heat was too unbearable for sleep. "My dear," Madame Polinska's eyes were thoughtful, "I have been thinking OU cannot be efficient. when your whole digestive is in rebellion. Dizziness and that dread- p to the end of the tongue are signs > for a long time--why shouldn't you give up your apartment and come to stay with me here? The house is far too enormous for my needs and I'il admit I get a bit lonely at times." "But," Nan stammered in surprise, "it would be an imposition, surely?" "Not in the least," Madame assured her. "You would be doing me a favor. If you feel better about it, we could share expenses. As I mentioned be- fore, I'm seriously economizing so that I can devote everyone of my spare pennies to my charity, It would be too selfish to live here in luxury while the little children of my country are dying for lack of food. Besides, there is a garage in the rear and yousould |- keep your car there and says Soi a ha bit yourself--of course n t you need to." Her eyes travelled appraisingly over Nan's pretty and obviously expensive summer frock and the jewels on her slim fingers. "You really look extremely well ta- ken care of," she remarked, It was on the tip of Nan's tongue to say: "Oh, my husband gives me a generous allowance," but she checked herself in time. 'She was uncomfort- ably aware, however, that something in Madame Polinska's attitude, unex- prgssed but none the less apparent, suggested that the source of her in- come might not be entirely legimate. However she accepted the Russian woman's invitation gratefully, Her own apartment had really become un- bearable, accustomed as she was to the spacious rooms -of Larrabee's big house and the summer cottage at the seashore. She moved her effects the following day and ran her car into the garage with the feeling that she had made a fair exchange for its use. When she told Brandon about her change of residence, he shrugged and smiled. "You 'seem to get them all, both you apparently. It's the first time I have ever seen Polinska falling for anybody. She is a pretty canny soul and usually has her eye open for her own advantage." "But she seems generosity itself," Nan protested. "Look how she is giv- ing up all her time for charity." "Charity fiddlesticks," Mona Vail cut in as was her habit, "she is getting enough publicity and atten on from sotiety around here to more than pay her for those silly little talks she gives and calls real work. If you want my opinion, she really does it to hear the sound of her own voice. How that wo- man can talk if she gets hold of a lis- tener." "Oh, shut up," Mona," Brandon told her irritably, "you always have something nasty to say about people." "Is that 50." She sprang up from her chair, cheeks angrily flushed, eyes flashing. "Well, you don't have to lis- ten to it if you don't like it." She grabbed her hat off the top of her desk, jammed it carelessly on her head and flounced out, slamming the door behind her. Brandon made .a humorous gesture, half mocking, half rueful. "Charming little disposition she has, hasn't she? Don't be embarrassed, it's nothing unusual, I am treated to those little scenes ten times a day." It seemed to Nan that he spoke ra- ther lightly of his financee to a casual pupil and she began to believe what Madame Polinska had told her--that the engagement was more on Mona's side than his. : It didn't increase her liking for him and again she found herself hoping that he would get his just reward some day from a girl more clever than Mona That night after dinner, Madame Polinska said: "My dear, I noticed today that you received a gown from Sterns. Do yon happen to have an account there?" Nan nodded. "It's the best shop in town, I think." "Then I wonder," said Madame Pol- inska slowly, "If you'd let me purchase a new costume there on your account, I'll pay you when the bill comes in. You see, I only receive my allowance from Russia quarterly and it's a bit overdue." A trifled surprised, Nan aevertbelese gave her consent.

New Yor 'When ight ot the nine Egyptians found guilty of murdering the Sirdar of Egypt, General Stack, had been sentenced to death, the story of their detection was made public. It was a difficult piece of work, ilifully done. The assassins had completely vanished after their bloody deed. Suspicion naturally fell upon a pum-~ ber of the followers of Zaghlul, and several of them were arrested. But the time of their detention, during which they all proved their innoe- ence, was utilized by Colonel Russell, Chief of the Cairo police, and In- gram Bey, of the Detective Service, to get on the trail of the real crim- inals. Two dgtectives had overheard a couple of Egyptians who were bro- thers discussing the detalls of the murder. Froin this source it was learned that a certain Ismail was supposed to know all about the as- sassination. Then the report was given out and the statement was printed in an Arab paper that he had gone to the Minister of the Interior to make a clean breast of it. At this the others took ht and fled to Alexandria, whanos fhe out for Tripoli.
