x 2s Rutbhah Wells is the one spot in the middle of six hundred miles of desert, and beause of this fact, the Iraq Govâ€" ernment has built there a strong fort beside the aerodrome. Outside the four square walls of the fort, the desert stretches in every direction. The fort is held by the Camel Police, and its Next moment he felt the slight â€" alâ€" most imperceptible shudder and the bounce of their wheels touching the ground, followed by the more Proâ€" nounced swaying of the machine as it ran in over the ‘drome to a standstill. ‘"Dunno," he laughed. "When I‘m likely to be using them, they‘re handâ€" ler in my pocket. When I leave ‘em off, 1 shove ‘em in their case." At the very instant she sDoke, a man was edging his way past them. Glynn glanced round and saw the sPectacled Indian, Dass, caught the awift glance at the binoculars halfâ€" way into the jacket pocket, from them to the case slung from his shoulder. Outwardly he laughed carelessly; inâ€" wardly he grnaoed. "Now why, just why did she have to say that," he thought, "at the very moment that darn Indian would hear?" \ "Glynn," she said. "Why do you alâ€" ways carry those glasses in your pocâ€" ket, and never in the case for them that you always have over your shoulâ€" der He leaned over and picked up his binoculars from the seat where he had left them and slipped them into his jacket pocket. Nora watching his movement, glanced up and laughed light]y. ‘Nearly in," he said lightly, "we‘ll have a good hour to break any fast that remains unbroken." He reached his place again as the machine began to tilt gently on its downward glide for the Rutbah Wells ‘drome. "I wonder," he was thinking, "I wonder if this has anything special to do with me and my courier job." "And a nice cold beer and a smoke," #aid the pilot. Glynn left them and moved back to the smoking saloon, his hand resting carelessly on the binocular case slung at his right side. Stefan drops the case and film overâ€" board as they go ashore from the Flyâ€" Ing BRoat. Next morning, shortly after the liner has left Galilee, Stefan and Max, who have stayed behind, thinking their work accomplished. learn by cable that two coples of the film are carried by the Courier. Stefan hires a twoâ€"seater machine and sets off, hoping to catch the liner at its next balt. On the same _ Mail liner . travels NORAH SEAMAN, a girl Glynn had met only a week before, STEFAN, MAX and DASS, agents of "The Vulture," determined to steal the film and prevent use being made of it in India.

It was clear. to me they know each other well, and last thing "But I don‘t know anything about him," said Glynn. "I don‘t see that it affects me." _ _"Then this may interest you, after all. Max was down to breakfast and apparently well enough to eat a good one, within minutes of the liner leayâ€" ing. Stefan got a wire from London, and immediately went frantic about getting a plane that would catch you uP. He got it, and he‘s flying to Rut-‘ bah now." "I don‘t actually know anything," admitted Glynn, "but for a very trivâ€" ial reason I‘m suspicious of him." "No, I don‘t know a thing about him," said Glynn, "Know anything of the Mr. Max who stayed behind because he was Hiot feeling well?" "What I wanted to tell you," said the voice from the telephone, "may mean nothing to you, but just might mean something. Do you know anyâ€" thing of the Mr. Stefan who decided to stop off the liner here, and go on to Haifa on some business. "Thanks," said Glynn eagerly with a sudden hoPe that perhaps something had been found out about the missing case and film. He was disappointed in this, because in answer to his first question he was told that. there was no news to report. "Captain Elliman," said the operaâ€" tor, when Glynn entered his room. "Airways office at Galilee is asking you to sPeak to them." This arranged, Glynn took Norah to their meal with an easier nind. But before they were nalf way through it, a message came from the wireless oD erator asking Glynn to come and see him. "Then just hang around me, watchâ€" ing me and anyone that comes near me without seeming to watch more than you can help. Come on the jump for anyone you see making trouble, and help me sit on his head." f ‘*Whoever got my bag, didn‘t go aâ€" way with it," said Glynn, "But it‘s gone just the same." "Count on me for anything I can do to help," said Doyle, cheerily. "They can‘t do much and get away with it here," said Doyle. "By what I saw from the air, this is just a sPot in the howling wilderness," "I wish you‘d do me another favour, Doyle," he said. "Those people got my bag after all, but I have a fancy they may not be finished with me." As they walked across the few yards from the liner to the fort, Glynn moved alongside Jimmy Doyle, the young Rugger player. "khan" or hotel provides for the Airâ€" ways passengers and those who motor Past by the desert route. In such a spot, Glynn decided that there could be no danger of an attempt on his preâ€" cious Packet, and it would be safe to alight with the others and eat a meal. But he wished fervently that Norah had not chosen that unlucky moment to remark about this binoccular case, and he took care to keep a wary eye on any movement of the Indian to come near him.

But even ten miles is a matter of little more than five minutes flying, and Glynn knew that with the machine in plain sight, the liner must wait its arrival. FALSE TEETH "There he is," cried the pilot pointâ€" ing. "Flying highâ€"good six thousand I‘d say. Wise bird! Must know there‘s less force in the head wind up there." Gladly, Glynn turned to leap up the steps. But on the instant came aJong cry from the lookâ€"out, posted on the highest point of the walls. They looked up and saw the man‘s figure silhouetted against the sky, one arm pointing straight out to the West. "Curse!" growled Glynn, knowing well what the cry and signal meant.‘ The pilot turned briskly. "All aboard," he said. "No sight of him, so we‘ll push off." an omen of danger, and perhaps disâ€" aster to him if he failed to get away without Stefan on board. The word was given and the pasâ€" sengers filed up the steps and into the saloon. Glynn waited to the last with the other two. For some reason he could not understand, he was most desperately anxious they should get off without Stefan rejoining them, and he felt in some way that it was es it," "If he‘s not on the floor here withâ€" in ten minutes," said the official with another glance at his watch, "he missâ€" "Better get ‘em all aboard," said the pilot. The minutes dragged slowly past. Half an hour went, thirtyâ€"five, forty, minutes Glynn and the pilot stood waiting together with the Airways official fidgetting at their elbow. ’ At the end of the regulation hour allowed for the meal, the passengers sauntered back to the liner. They had been told about the machine tryâ€" ing to catch them up and that they might be delayed a little, so while some got in and settled in their com-‘ fortable seats, others hung about watching the sky for any distant speck that wiuld give notice of the apâ€" proaching machine. CAN‘T SLIP OR SLIDE "I see," said the pilot doubtfully. "But I don‘t know how I could exâ€" plain not waiting an hour or so. But we‘ll see." "Course you can‘t dodge orders," said Glynn, "but if you can cut down the time you wait to the barest limit, I‘d be mighty glad. I‘ve a good reason for not wishing that passenger to rejoin us, but can‘t raise any obfectâ€" ion on no more than a suspicion." "That‘s right," said the pilot. "He should manage it all right. I can safe ly hang on for an hour and make Bas ra before it‘s too dark." Glyun left the fireless room thoughtfully pondering, and sought the pilot. "I‘ve been talking to Galilee, Joe," he said. "They‘ve told me about this fellow chasing us up and that you have been instructed to delay here as long as you can to let him arrive in time." "He wouldn‘t normally," explained the Airways official. He had a head wind to fight and less speed than you have. But the hour you wait at Rutâ€" bah gives him a chance, and as he‘s a Passenger by Airways, I couldn‘t reâ€" fuse to do as he asked and send a mesâ€" sage through to your pilot to wait as long as he reasonably could to let Steâ€" fan arrive before the liner left." Stefan shouted from the plane was to Max, telling him to send a wire off at onee. Max evidently knew as much aâ€" bout the business he was to wire as Stefan did." * "That certainly does link the two," agreed Glynn. "I was hoping that with Max out of it there would be only one man with us to watch. I may be in for a tough time again if I have a couple of plotters to beat.
