"Thank jou." If tho words of her
questioner contained nn ulterior sug

of being oblivious to It, listening with
a urave calmness to ins next question.
"When ou csenped Into tho tree,
were you In J position to hear what
went on In tho road?"
"I was "
"Tho men In tho road searched Herr
Hnmnierslev?"
"They did"
"And at last ho escaped?"
"Yes."
"Do you remember hearing him
shout nil thing as his motor moved
awav?"
"Yes.
"What was It"'
'That they hadn't searched tho ma
chine or words to tint effect."
Von Stromberg glanced nt Illzzlo,
who was leaning forward In his chUr,
eager to Kpeak.
"Well, Herr Klzzlo?" ho asked.
"That was a diversion Intended to
give Miss Mather moro time In which
to escape. The scumd package was
not In the motor. At that tlmo thero
vvns no second package."
Doris Mather's voice wns raised Just
a trifle, but for the moment It domi

Then why didn't ho put them both

"I suppose because ho wanted to be

Von Stromberg grunted. "I see But
why did jou help Mr. IlKmmersley to

they wero dangerous to Hngland?'
"I didn't know what they were. 1

She faltered.
Von Stromberg wav cd his hand.
Oh, very well. It does not matter.
Who did jou think was pursuing Mr.
Hammersley?"
"Agents of Mr. Illzzlo."
"Why did jou think that?"
"Because I heard part of what hap
pened between Mr. Illzzlo and Mr. Ham
mersley In the smoking-room at Lady
Heathcoto's and I knew that Mr. Illz
zlo had threatened Mr. Hammersley,"
"Did you think tha men who followed
you In tho other machlno were UcrmMt

Doris answered qulckb'.
"Oh nn. T una mure that they were
men of Scotland Yard."
"Are you sure no;'
"Oh, jcs. Subsequent events have
proved It to mo conclusively."
"Oh I What events?"
"The things that Mr. Illzzlo did nnd
what he wrote."
"Ho wrote to jou?'
"Yes."
Hlrzto wns swallowing uneasll, his
fkco pale, his hands trembling.
"nxccllonz, I can explain at another

Von Stromberg regarded him coolls.
"I will hear jou nt another time.
For the present Frnuleln Mather will
speak. What did Mr. Illzzlo write to
ou that led you to think that Mr.
II zzlo was In communication with
Scotland Yard?'
"This letter. Hxcellenz" She put her
lingers Into her waist and handed a
crumpled paper to the General. Illzzlo
hart risen agnln nnd would have Inter
posed, ibut Von btromberg waved him
aside
"You will all keep silence until ques
tioned," ho said abruptlj', and then
smoothing tho letter upop his knee,
read It with great caro and dellber
nipnpQtf itixzlrt ttinde an effort at
composure, but only succeeded In bring
ing out n nnnuKercniei nun wiiwik his
hrnu. Unmmersley watched Von Strom

lontents of this letter, but the attitude
of the girl was uisiinciiy reassuring.
'nn Ktromhppir'M brow nucltered dis
agreeably nnd his long nose neared the
paper, while his ejes peered at the sheet
as though his ilery gaze would burn In
to I t. ....
He read the paper through twice nnd
then brought his hand down upun tho
table with ii crash vhlle his voice thun
dered nt Illzzlo, toward whom ho ex
tended the note.
"It Is signed with jour initials. Did
j-ou write this?"
Illzzlo bent nnd examined the letter.
"Uxccllenz. I did, but It was with
the object of bringing Miss Mather
"Silence! Perhaps jou do not recall
Its terms. I will refresh jour memory."
"Excellent If I had not written that
letter Miss Mather would not have "
"Bo quiet. Sit down PIeae lHten.
'I am telling jou this'" ho read, "'to
warn jou that mv gcnerosltj' to Hum

bition, but by the continued esteem with
which I still regard joursclf. I do not

I have refrained for jou, Doris. Hut l

mav not be nblo to have him'"
Von Stromberg paused und laid the
letter upon the table. "I could read
more," no paid, " but that Is enough.
When did jou recelvo this letter, Frnu
leln?' "Tho day after Sir. Hammersley was
shot."
"And. noting upon It, jou went to
Ben-n-Chlelt to trv to persuade him
from the. causo of Gcrmanj"
"Yes," she said tlearlj',
"You failed?
"I did."
"H m." Tho General paused nnd
turned to Illzzlo.
"What hive jou to say?''
"Merely, i:cellcnz, that I thought
Mlsi Mather knew too much for Ger
man 's good and I chose this means
of getting her to Ben-n-Chlelt."
"Where sho could witness a secret
meeting between two officers of my
department? Bah! Herr Blzzlo, your
story leaks like a reve. It la full of
holes." He toueheil the hell at his
elbow and Von Wlnden appeared. "Tou
win convey jierr juzzio to tno room
on the third floor. Put a guard over
him."
Illzzlo started to his feet, his face
ghastly, while beads of moisture stood
out upon his forehead,
"Vou will not glvo mo n clianco to
explain?" ho protested huskllj'.
"J. on will be given n hearing to

"Take him away!'1

"I understand, Excellent. But II

What You, Mr. Dealer,
Must Appreciate About Coca-Cola's
Restricted Output
The reason why you do not get your full supply of Coca
Cola will appeal to your patriotism. To save materials for
war use, Coca-Cola's output is restricted by the Government.
The Coca-Cola Company is proud to do its full part in con
servation, and at the same time is endeavoring to help the
Government in preserving industry.
Please recognize that we are making every effort to supply
you with the utmost quantity in strict accordance with offi
cial regulations. Please appreciate that your difficulties are
ours and ours are multiplied by the number of our friends
and dealers throughout the country, whose business it is our
object to strengthen and maintain.
It is important for you to realize that every ounce of. Coca
Cola we are manufacturing and distributing to you, every
glass you sell over your counter, is in effect legalized allowed
and authorized by Mr, Hoover and the Food Administration
after full compliance with their purposes. Coca-Cola repre
sents a product that loyal dealers may be proud to offer.
Order from your regular jobber and we will go the limit
to meet your demands and at the same time meet the re
quirements of our Government and yours.
VI
,:
When authorized Coca-Cola is called for, give your customer,
the genuine. If you are out of Coca-Cola for the minute
don't offer an imitation which has not" loyally done its part in
conservation, but which is trying to take advantage or ouf
restricted output to pass itself off as' a substitute.
To stand by loyal business, defend honest products, and pro-, ,
tect the public against deception these are not only duties-
or patriotism, iair piay ana conscience, Dut uiey are cnaracrciv ;
principles of good business, and the only principles thaftSr'
in the long run. a ,, , i",
