"Me? One moment don't follow you. If appearances advertise me--well, there you are. If you take the trouble to read my little manifesto for myself, you would catch its drift correctly. Oh, I'm not a rich man." Mr. Parkins smiled steadily past them, "Anything I ́may have, 1-er-fancy I can hold. Some people can't. Oh, yes!"

Humph! That is your look-out. We wark you, that is ours. At any rate, there seems a pretty general notion in the neighborhood about you; and the gang knows it, be sure, If you retired nobodies"

Possibly could give the police themselves a few hints. It seems so. I merely say it seems so. But, there! Servants chatter! Mine doesn't I keep only one, on that account ; and you'd hardly call her a knave, she's the other. 1;don't say, for instance, she doesn't know there's a wire atretched across this passage every night-yet, a simple wire " The policeman had sniggered audibly. "Not, mind you, where our friend would look for it- ankle high; my wire would take him across the gullet. And he'd hear a fairly loud bell in my bedroom."

Very good, Mr. P. The inspector tumed: "Your bedroom is naturally the last place on earth where a cracksman would dream of sus- pecting a safe-just so t When anything hap pens, I simply say don't go writing to the Press about police incompetency, and offering your cheap advice. That's all.'

"Is it?

There's a nice little battery switched on inside. Worth the seventy shillings, that arrangement. I can sleep middi ing sound-others can't. Call it something to go on with, eh?"

Mr. Parkins roused a shade earlier than usual that next morning. As a rule, he could.

roll over and start a fresh dream quite com: forial; but the thought of Jim Snow hap 'pened to come between, and he lay wonder ing whether he had done quite the right thing and whether Marjorie was going to mops in her room all that day. Because, if so- Hello! He swayed up, as with an electric shock. It was not a fatherly pang of remorse: merely the fact that his door seemed to stand ajar. Ay, and more than far. A nameless sweat crawled out upon him. He jerked the pillow aside: the keys were conspicuous by their absence. He looked across at the little safe-the pride of his advanced age. Safe? It was not safe at all. The door of that stood

wide open.

He stumbled across. Cheque-book, cash-box, bundle of securities, presentation gold watch and chain-all were gone.

For minutes Mr. Parkins stood with both

hands to his head, before the flash-thought-the meaning of it-reached him. Snow! His revenge, his significant words of the day before! Snow i the man who had wormed the facts fram Marjorie-made love to her with this dastardly motiva | Snow!

But Mr. Parkins was not listening. He had slid down beside the uniform-doffed ironically there by the two cracksmen who had called to give advice in exchange for useful information. They had vanished with his valuables, and but it is as well to have a vell handy at these painful denouements.

All the same, it almost appeared as if, by the time that Jim Suow wot his increase of salary, there was unt such a hopeless gulf between their respective incomes.
