You wouldn‘t call it risky to set across the Atlantic in a Cunard liner, "_ "But what‘s the danger?" persistâ€" ed Stefan, "The Mail liner is going through, isn‘t it. You don‘t risk any more than her pilot does." "Good enough," said the pilot quiet ly. "Get aboard. It‘s your lookout if we forcedâ€"land in the desert." ‘"What‘s the matter with you," stormed Stefan. "Why are we wasting all this time? Are you afraid and if so, what of ?" The pilot turned to Stefan: "It‘s a lossup whether I can get through or have to make a forced landing, and there‘s always some risk in that." An Airway official came hurrying to them. "Rcport just come in," Ks said. "You‘ll have strong head winds against you from here to Rutbah. D‘ you think you can make it?" The pilot looked at him distastefulâ€" ly. "My people told me I was engaged to fly you to Rutbah Wells," he said calmly. "That‘s just on three hunâ€" dred miles off, and my extreme range is very little over." ‘ Max sympathised again most hearâ€" tily and called for another drink. Mecanwhile Stefan, eager to get away, hurried to the pilot, loudly and anâ€" grily demanding why he was wasting "But would it be any goodâ€" I don‘t want to pry into your business of course," said Max. "But would it help to wait or go back?" "I doubt if it‘s any good my going onâ€"fact, I‘m pretty sure it isn‘t. Y‘see, my only reason for going was to take out what was in that bag and to explain to the people it was for that itâ€"erâ€"it was the genuine arâ€" ticle, as I could swear personally. Sorry 1 can‘t explain better, but I was sworh to secrecy about the beast ly thing I was carrying." l But he hinted nothing of this to Max, was apparently most grateful of the offer, had a drink with him, rursing his bad luck, wondering what on earth to do now, admitting (with seeming caution that he had wired to London to ask what he was to doâ€" wait there, go on to India, or return to London. Mr. Max came to him and offered his sympathy, and suggested that if it were cash that had been lost and the loss temporarily embarass e d Glynn, perhaps a little loan would be acceptable. Glynu by now. was most susPiclous of the man. He recalled again the abrupt but evident order which Max had passed to the Indian he had been warned against. The newsDapers in the bag were London ones and were of the day before the Air Mail had started, so that it was clear a duplicate bag had been used, and had been brought all the way from London. been stolen and that a reward of £100 would be paid for information that would lead to the return of the bag or its contents. Glynn made a point of fussing about demanding that he be sent back with the police to the flying boat to make a strict search there, going out to assist the search and returning to have slips pPosted aâ€" bout the hotel and everywhere likely to be of use, increasing the reward to Glynn asked it to be announced that a very valuable despatch case had At different points of the route they plan organised efforts to rob the Courâ€" ler, and at Athens the attacheâ€"case, which Glynn always carries with him, is snatched.

Then "You think you‘ll still go right through to Karachi?" she asked. "I‘d think so," he said smilingly,, "since I wasn‘t stopped back at Galiâ€" lee. But look down again. Take my glasses and have a look. See that thin straight scratch along the ground with a lot of car tracks like a main road running on one or other side of it. Got it? That is the line that was the line that was ploughed across the desert as the first guide to the pilots flying this route. We still find it useâ€" ful at times, although rothing like as vital as it was in the first days . It was a great bit of work. Took the air force survey Party seven months to score that scratch with two lots workâ€" ing in to meet in the middle of six hundred miles of goshâ€"awful desert." â€" "It‘s rather wonderful," she said, staring down at the thread like line. "Seven months over that awful counâ€" try, And we take how long?" ; "I‘ll tell you why I‘m feeling so good," he said, lowering his volce. "We‘ve dropped a passenger I‘m glad to be rid of." "Why?" she asked curiously. "I‘ll tell you some time," he laughed "but not just yet. Anyhow, I‘ve plenty to make me happy surely, since everyâ€" one knows I didn‘t get a cable as 1 thought I might, ordering me to let this old beauty go along without me." Glynn told it all with a zest and enâ€" joyment that was infectious, and afâ€" ter a time Norah glanced at him curâ€" lously. "It almost seems as if you were glad that case of yours was sto len," she said. "You seem positively merry about it or something." ‘ He held an open map, to keep Pointing out about where they were, and showed her how to Pick ont the ruins of Roman occupationâ€"forts, walls and aqueducts, and at last their furthest out frontier fort. And beyond there again, there were plainly markâ€" ed circles and squares linking remains of ditches and walls of a race of Stone Age people, dating far back into preâ€" historic times. \ "Nasty place to have to come down,‘ remarked Glynn cheerfully. "Used to be lots of risk of that in the old days, but just none at all now. And there‘s lots of interesting items down there, barren although it is." ‘ CHAPTER IX CLOSE PURSUIT Almost a hundred miles away the liner was steadily driving her way inâ€" to the head wind. The fertile green hills of Palestine were changing below them to the bare and naked country of tbe_desert, and Norah, looking down on it, remarked on its dreary desola tion, Max waved his understanding, and the engine, after a quick testing out run up slowed down as the pilot swung out on to the ‘drome, roared uD again into full song. A swift rush and the machine was up and away, headâ€" ing at top speed for the liner‘s next halting place. Max had been standing by listening to this talk, and after a hasty word with him, Stefan climbed up into his Place. A mechanic mounted and adâ€" justed the safety belt about him and in answer to Stefan‘s demand "What‘s this for?" the pilot answered him, "It may save you breaking your neck, if we forced land. But use it or not just as you please. It‘s your neck anyway." The mechanic jumped down, and Stefan shouted down to Max. "Send a cable at once to say I‘m after them and hope to catch up and go on with the liner." "Better hop in if you mean to go," said the Airways man hurriedly. "He is as good a pilot as there is in Palesâ€" tine, and if he doesn‘t get through, no body else can." The pilot turned from him and without a word began to climb into his cockpit. but it might be in an open boat." "Nuff said," remarked the pilot la conically. "Do we go, or don‘t we?" "Yes," said Stefan angrily. "I beâ€" lieve it is all nonsense, if you are a capable pilot."
