In his bearding heuM at breakfast,
time hevhad heard wait, one. discuss
ing the .magnificence of the Parnassun
the -latest Werd In1 American luxury,
which Londen was .atrugglng te cu cu
tept as a matter of course. Without
consulting Nadia,- he, took her them;
and' when they were Mated in the
domed dining -room, guessed that he
bad make, a mistake.
"Yeu don't like this place?" he asked
solicitously. ' , .
"Very much aa a place," she an
swered. "But, you see, I urn uel
dressed for the part."
1 He glanced 'at het-wilh critical ap
proval. Her dress waa pure white, her
hat of black . lace. . with some fluftY
trimming, that sbmehew made her loeii
iragiie and very young.
"That seems n trifle absurd, if I
may Bay' be," he remarked. "Speaking
ns'n man, I think yaarndrcss is quite
perfect '
"Thank you," aaid Nadia, with a
flush and. a laugh. "But it. is net
the men who count. Every woman in the
room known te a pound "what my clothes
cost. i .It may seem te' a man small
minded te think of such h thing, but
if you're a woman you can't help it,"
"Ah, well," said Jarreman, "that 1b
a defect which can be' corrected in n
few- hours. I vden't knew1 anything
about dress, 'except that it is simpiy a
matter et .ordering things. It you'll
write (he names of a few first-clats
Bhepu en the back of this menu, I'll
have credit accounts opened for you
before we get up from this table."
1 As he epekc he passed her the menu
and a fountain pen.
Nmlla stepped him with a gesture.
'Net new. Please I, want te say
something," v
Jarreman, waited. "
'.'But I Must De SemeKInd of Werk!
"Don't think me ungrateful for all
the things .you want te de for me,"
she began. "Teil must knew that I
am , net. But I cannot sit Btlll
and have things poured into my lap, as
it' were. "Yeu want me te order the
kind of frocks, that go with n place
like thlsC New, Ifm net silly nbeut
things. I like mice things beautiful
things. But I wouldn't like te be
idle, I must de seme kind of work."
Fer a moment. Jarreman stared at
her. He was perturbed, and perturba
tion, was dangerous te him. He tried
te analyse His agitation.
Something in her words compelled his
respect. Ab.that was it. She had
trapped him into an involuntary ad
miration of her, and he felt as though
she had stolen a weapon from him. Hi
must drive, everything from his mind
except the necessity for humoring her,
and at the same time keeping her in his
sight, bs much as possible.
'There came te him an idea for kilt
ing two birds with one stone, and he
smiled at himself at the grim jest.
"Of course!" hesaid, in a voice that
.suggested a depth of understanding. "I
might 'have known that you would net
consent te leading a butterfly existence.
New, I have alreadydecided that I will
have te have a resident mvrefnrv.
Would It perhautt.sult you te' help mu
with my' work? ,
' Nadia lapked tc'.-prised, but seemed tc
sec no goeu reason ter reiusai.
"Why, yes, I might de that, if you
think I could de it satisfactorily," she
returned, "De you mean work in con
nection with your estate?" v
'.'Ne, net my estate." replied Jarro Jarre
man. "My innocence."
Her eyes widened like a child's. He
went en: "I shall nsk no one no ft

nna i were taming together in thnt office
this morning I made a resolution that
I would leave no stene Unturned to
ward . proving ny innocence. That
will mean endless work. I have cer
tain acts which I had net at the tlrfie
when I was convicted'; but these facts
are incomplete. There will be endlesc
correspondence with detectives, filing of
documents, and clerical and secretarial
work in general. I am net counting
en immediate success it will be' a long
job. Will you help me in it?"
"Oh, yes---yes," said Nadia, eagerly.
"But it will be terribly difficult, won't
it, after twenty years te find the guilty
man, I mean?"
"In this case it's net n matter of
searching for an unknown man," re
plied Jarreman, watching, ber closely.
"It. is a matter of establishing 'legal
proof. I knew the man who did it
he has been dead nearly ns long as 1
have been in prison. Se, you see,
16 our work is successful, it will de
no harm te any living creature,"
"Bul have you known all thcM
years?"
Stranechg Leve Endures
"All these .years," repeated Jarro Jarre
man. "But it is ene thing te knew
something for a moral certainty, another
te be able te produce definite legal
proof. The man for whe.e sin I Buf
fered was a one-time friend et mine

His ivelce faltered slishtlv. but ulir
did ndt perceive'it. Te him It was evi

passion. He could net help adding:
"Will you cle all In your power f
help me prove that Jehn Camden was
guilty?"
She bent her head. She looked
brighter new than she had at first, and
he suddenlv realized that she was henu .
tiful in a delipate, distinctive way that
in e proper petting intent wen become
arresting. His spirits rose still higher.
He would provide the setting, and let
her loveliness exact all the horaage it

they should leave.
"I should suggest that we go te my
bank new," said Jarreman.
Nadia assented nnd seen they were
interviewing a deferential manager, The
girl watched and listened while an ac
count was opened for her with a de
posit et a. thousand pounds, .
She waa glad when it was ever and
she felt herself free te go. She parted
from Jarreman with a premise te take
up her residence with him next day.
Then' alie walked sdqwly back te her
bearding house!
She reached it lest in thought, She
mounted the step slowly, and put the
key in the deer. Then she started vio
lently and wheeled round. Wilfred
Stranack bad come up behiud her. He
greeted her with grave courtesy, '
'"Yeu didn't get my letter?" she
fnlterd, leuuliiL' for flight.
"Oh, ye," returned Stranack.
"That'a why I'm here. Its' early for
