Onlyâ€"here‘s what I didn‘t know till just nowâ€"toâ€" day, in factâ€"what Tom went and did was buy a secondhand car and pocket the difference. Instead of paying the full price for a new Lorimor, Tom beâ€" gan watching for bargains. He found what he wantedâ€"a car that looked brand newâ€"turned back to the dealer after it hadn‘t been driven more than a couple thousard milesâ€"and not a scratch. Yes, there was a dent in the left front fender, but Tom took it down to the factory and got it ironed out and painted over. Nobody wouid ncticeâ€"and it gave Tom a $1,000 cut in price. He says not, but I knowâ€" I know the price of cars. Wellâ€" "Well, I says to Tom," Jupiter went on, "this here‘s to be your «ar to fool with. Take it whenever you‘ve got the time, and do tricks with it. Give it every test you can think of, just as if you was brying a car for yourself. I want to know just what you think of that car when you‘re doue with it. Take it apart, if you want to, though I know what‘s inside, and so do you. Eat with it, sleep with it, get to know that Lorimor car as well as you know the Jupiter car. And when you‘ve got an idea about the two makes of cars come and tell me where the difference is. "But the fact is," he hesitated, and Mary fairly twitched with impatience, "the fact isâ€"now, you ‘keep this to yourself, Maryâ€"but the Lorimor car is a darn good car and it‘s been cutâ€" ting into our sales to the point where it‘s not funny any more. Now I know all about the Lorimor, car. _ They Icven‘t got so much of a washer on it that we haven‘t got, or can‘t put, on a Jupiter. But I‘m damned if a lot of people don:} prefer it to the Jupiâ€" ter. Now, why? "I says to myself: I‘m go‘ng to find out. So I gave Tom $5,000 cash to bey a brandâ€"new Lorimo.. You‘ve keard me say Tom‘s the best mechanic alive, and he is. That‘s why I keep him. He ain‘t so trustworthy in all wiysâ€"I‘ve fourd that out. But I‘d rather have him on my cars than some honest lunkhead. And if he wasn‘t lacking somewheres he‘d be down at the plant, getting $20,000 a year, inâ€" stead of wearing my livery and sleepâ€" ing over a garage." Breathless as she was with eagerâ€" ness to get to the point of the story, Mary could not help recognizing that the faults of Tom were a real heartâ€" ache to the old man. "I had Tom buy it for me. I kept i: secret. Bound to be talk if I bought any car not put out by the Jupiter Motor Company, and I thought it was just as well not to let the Lorimor people be able to say I had to buy one of their cars to get any place. anybody know but just me and one or two others, that there‘s a Lorimor car belongs to me.

But they‘ve been here, Bruce znd the Countess. And what a fight. I hid behind a catsup bottle and got an earful. Listen, did Mrs. Jupiter have a diamond bracelet?" "Yes," Mary said, "she did." "Would you know it?" "I think so." "Well, look on the Countess‘ arm whe.; she comes in. And she‘ll come inâ€"alone! When they got back to town, driven by the obliging young man in whose pocket now reposed the first $50 bill he had ever seen, none of the motoring party kad returned. Not until she entered the lobby did it enter Mary‘s head that she had not telehoned to Bowen. Hastily she called the numâ€" ber he had given her, but he was not there. No one knew whether he had been there or how long ago he had goe. "Wellâ€"it was aâ€"secondâ€"hand car. Looks like it might be the car that The Fly used coming and going, and maybe later on the one that ran your brother ‘down," Jupiter offered.
