Myra Heath was peculiar. She never used cosmetics. never wore colors. She had a mania for collecting glass. and it was a rare old whisky bottle from her collection that the murderer used to kill her. Candles were burning at her head and feet and nearby was a card marked. ”The Work of Perry Heath.” Strang- est of all. she was heavily made up and gsrbed in gay colors. The peculiar thing about Heath's disappeaspnee is that all the windows and doors had been locked on the inside the night before and were found that way in the morning.

Let them hunt for me as much as they like—they'll never find me. Goodby, Little One. and my to forget me yourself." The voice ceased abruptly. and the dead silence told Bunny she woeod hear nothing more. She hung up the receiver, and walked slowly back to the porch. where the others still set. They looked at her so expectantly that she felt she must satisfy or at least W their evident curiosity. “It was a man: I know." she said. slowly. "He thinks I am in danger. and warns me to be careful. Espe- cially. ho warns me against the waitre- over at the Heath house. That Emma—he thinks she is tell- ing tales about me.‘ "She is," Teddy spoke out bluntly. He had concluded that he could best help Bunny by tolling her all he knew. and letting her profit by it. "They are not true." Bunny said. calmly. "mama is making up stories.” "I heard her, last night.” Buck said. not locking at her. but gazing intently at the cigaret he was light- ing. "I have to admit. her state ments had the ring of truth.” "Bah!" said his aunt. "you don’t know truth when you hear it.

If anybody told you the earth was flat. you'd begin to think that very likely it ia't Bunny smiled a little. but she looked at Buck. seriously. "Did you really hear Emma talk?" she asked. “What did she say?" ‘Toddy‘hesitated. and than said: "I believe I'll tell you. for I think you flight to know. She declares she saw you going upstairs at half past one o'clock. the night of the murder. She says you were walking slowly. and you were carrying your vanity ease—the one you have lost." "How did Emma come to disclose this fact?" Bunny spoke coldly. her eyes almost glittered. and her whole expression was unlike her usual sun- :17 smile. , “She said Garter told her to do it." Teddy went on. looking at her new. and trying to gather an inkling of her real thoughts. "Garter!" Bunny gave a sudden start. and a frightened lock appeared in her eyes.‘ In some ways.

"But they consider this matter their bwn affair,” Buck said. watch- lng her. ”You see. they are the de- tectives. That man. Mott, is Just waiting a little longer for Perry Heath's return—" "Perry Heath will never return.” Bunny said, with a note of solemnity in her voice. Mrs. Prentlse‘ intuition lifted its head. "Was that Perry Heath talking to you on the telephone last night and this morning?! she demanded. - Bunny returned her gaze. “No.” she said. simply, and shook her head. The girl's mind worked like light- ning. She wanted to confide in these kind friends. and ask their advice. but Ferry Heath had forbidden her to any he had spoken to her. and his word was low. Yet she must not antagonize these people with whom she was staying. she must make them believe in her truth and innocence. She must whoedle Mrs. Prentiss into a real friendship. and she must charm young Buck. until he was blind to her faults. Well. these things ought to be easy for her—for Baby Moore, who had ahays. so far in her short life. charmed anybody she wished to. But these folks were so—no. not suspicious-but so curious. yes. that was it. they were curious to know about her doings that night. Well. they must not know. that was a sure thing! Why. her finger- prints and Larry’s. too. were on that bottle, that awful'bottla that had brought about the death of Myra! And her vanity case—oh. why did they harp on that act Did they know—oh. what did they know? And Just here. Mrs. Prentiss broke in on her thoughts again. “What were you crying about so bitterly when Carter came to your room to tell you the sad news? Please tell us—it will be so much better for you to confide in friends. Now. if you tell us the whole story. we can understand the case better and we can be of real help to you." "Oh. I can’t—I can't—" and Bun- ny was crying now. Not sobbing. but Just silently weeping. and the tears ran unneeded down her pink cheeks. ' But they left no stain. for never once. since the sight at Myu. and her painted face. had Bunny touched rouge or lipstick. “Well. let me tell it, and you check me up." Teddy said. "You went downstairs late at night to get your vanity box that you had left in the studio." "How did you know that!" “All right, I know.” and he nod- ded his head in satishction.
