At five minutes to one. however.
even this condition was amended. A
youth from tho hali-porter's oilice
put a package into my hand which
had just been left by a messenger. I
opened it. and found half a. dozen
familiar morocco cases. A portion
of the jewelry, which I had never
thought» to see ace-in. was in my
hands. It was now clear to me that
my husband had either already re-
turned or wus on the point. of doing
so. and that my help was needed.
Nevertheless three days went by
without a. sign or message from any-
body, three days during which I lived
lifter he fashion of a cat. curled up
in th and luxury. clinging to
the feel of my clothes. rsveling in
the perfumes of my bath. eating
good food and drinking wins with
slow but careful appreciation. I felt
the life revive in me. the blood flow
once more through my veins. Dur-
ing those three days nothing in this
worll would have driven me back to
my poverty. I would have commit-
ted almost any crime rather than re-
turn to it.

N the fourth day I met Norman
Greyes. I was leaving a. hair-
dresser's in Curzon Street when

and evidently looking for a taxicab.
I was within I. foot or two of him
before he recognized me. I was con-
scious of a keen and peculiar thrill
of pleasure ss 1 saw something flash
into his stern. unimpresslvs use.
Enemies though we were. he was
glad to see me.

"Good morning, Sir Norman,” I
said. holding. out my hand. "Are
there no more criminals loft in the
world. thnt you taks holiday?"

He smiled. and . put his clubs
through the open window of I. taxi-
cab which bad Just drawn up by the
side of the curb.

"I am tired of hunting criminals."
he confessed. "Battles. they are
turning the tables. They arc hunt-
ing mo.”

“Indeed?" I answered. ‘That
sounds as though my husband were
coming back."

"There are rumors of it.” be ad-
mitted. "Ara you staying near
here?"

"I am living at the Albcmarls
Court." I told him. “Why not have

At half-past three that afternoon I
received the invitation which I had
been expecting, and at four o'clock
I stepped out of a taxicab and em
tered the ofllces of a firm of solici-

"Is he safe?" I asked.

"Safe?" Mr. Younghusband re-
peated a, little vaguely. "\Vhy not?"
There was a moment's silence. I
looked around at the shabby but im-
posing contents of the office. a: the
lawyer's mildly puzzlgfl expression. I
drank in the whole atmosphere of
the p ce, and I was dumb. Mr.
Younghusband suddenly smiled. and
tapped with his forefinger upon the
table. He Was like s. man who has
suddenly seen through a. faulty
phrase in some legal document.

“I apprehend you." he said. “For
a moment I was not altogether able
to appreciate tbs significance of

ous place. and I understand—er—

would welcome a call from you."
“You have his address?"

"Yes—his warms." lfe repeated.
“Precisely! I have it here—Number
Eleven. Jackson Street."

"Mayfair?" 1 inquired.

"Mayfalr." he assented. "The ad-
dress reminds me, madam," he went
on. "that you must be prepared to
see your husband—er—not in the
best of health. He is, in fact. in a
nursing home.”

“Is be seriously ill?” I asked.

"I believe not.” was the deliberate
reply. "'You will have an opportu-
