"If the rest of the world knew how suspicious you two people are of each other, it would dismiss the threats of the propagandists like Schroeder with the contempt they really deserve," he remarked: "you mustn‘t take offence at that, my dear Carlimero, because you are sufficiently intelligent to appreciate the truth, I know." The other nodded. "Yes. T know the truthâ€"it is being driven home to me more deeply every. day. We should have been better off alone. As it is, we are being dragged along tied hand and foot to Kuhnâ€" reich‘s chariot. And that is going to prove a Juggernaut; killing all who ride in it." "As a neutral I can watch the presâ€" ent international comedy with complete detachment"" said Rahusen. After waiting to see what effect the words might have on his hearer, the Man with the Dead Face continued. "I have come to join forces with you, the son of my dead friend, at the express command of Signor Brassiano himself." "My coming to London is really a plece of secret contemporary history," he remarked, with a mirthless smile. "But first of all tell me: how are you getting on with your esteemed conâ€" freres at the Ronstadtian Embassy?" "I hate the brutes; they ate unâ€" civilized barbarians!" declared Carliâ€" mero.

"Why?" ejaculated the listener. The Man with the Dead Face smiled his mirthless smile. "For the very simple reason, my deay fellow, that the Lavanians, intending to kill two birds with one stone, denouncâ€" ed the Caronian engineers to the Ronâ€" stadt Secret Police, and the latter did the rest!" "Horrible!" commented Carimero "horrible!" Rahusen shrugged. "Yes, horribleâ€"if you are thinâ€"skinâ€" ned," he commented, "but you Carâ€" onians would have done exactly the same thing if the situation had been reversed. The supreme joke was that the real plans had been brought to London meanwhile.

"Dangerous? Yes, I suppose it is but you ought to know my record sufficiâ€" ently "well, Carlimero, to realize that danger has no threat to me." The thin lips curled back to show wolfish teeth. "And after the reception that swine Strassber gave me when by a fluke Standish and Bellamy beat me the last time I was here, I shall be only too pleased to pit my wits against those of Ronstadt. Yes, most certainly I shall!" smiling again. Carlimero held out his hand. "I welcome you not only on your 0wn behalf, Rahusen, but also on behalf of my country; we will work togetherâ€" not only against England, as representâ€" ed by Standish and Bellamy, but against Ronstadt, as represented by that swine Greisner!" Meanwhile Greisner, on his way back to the Ronstadtian Embassy, was evolâ€" ving another plan whereby he could both humiliate the man who had been rash enough to insult him that night, and strike Standish a deadly blowâ€"a blow from which this time there could be no possible escape.

"Of course I saw itâ€"but I don‘t come blabbering home like some husbands, breathing fire and disaster on the woman I love! You ought to know me better than that, Sonia." Standish gave the headlines on the front page a casual glance. "That new cook‘s turning out very well," he said, to his wife‘s exasperaâ€" tion. "I don‘t think I‘ve ever tasted tetter porridge than this." "*Never mind your porridge; why don‘t you pay attention to me?" And again she held up the copy of her newspaper. But Tiger did not reach out to take "No., Tiger, I haven‘t gone to the trouble of having you watched yetâ€" but at the theatre last night I met Elsie Summers: it was she who said that she "I know you quite well enough my dear," she remarked sighing. "And what‘s the verdict?" "Need you ask?" "Well, I‘d like to know all the same," spearing at a kidney. But Sonia would not be drawn; inâ€" stead of replying to this direct hint, she turned to her newspaper again. She was very much a woman. "According to the "Daily Megaphone", the explosion might not have been caused by terrorists after all; they seem to think that it was the work of enemy agents." "Shopping this morning?" She nodded. nal ng O falr "WHY THE NEW CAR" "I thought I would .. . will you be wanting the carâ€"the new car?" she went on, without batting an eyelid. Tiger was equally maskâ€"like. "It‘s a beauty, don‘t you think? Bill offered me the pick of the new bunch." "What happened to the old one?" You told me nothing about the exâ€" change." Tiger leaned towards her. "Is it possible that the wife of me bosom is developing the habit of asking unnecessary questions?" "I think it‘s a lovely car, darling," she compromised. She knew from the expression on her husband‘s face that Tiger was in no mood that morning in spite of his bantering manner, to be "put through the hoop," as he termâ€" ed it. He was up to something she knew; there was a mystery about the new car, but as he had not decided yet to give her his confidence she would have to be content with drawing her own conclusions. That was the worst of being married to a man like Tiger; it was a mixture of heaven and the other placeâ€"and the latter always seemed to materialise when she felt most hapâ€" py. "CGood! How did you like the show last night?" Tiger‘s manner had changed; the tenseness had gone out of his voice:; he was like a schoolboy again "It was quite amusing," she answerâ€" ed: "but I do wish that these modern actors would learn to talk instead of mumble." It had been an awkward halfâ€"anâ€" hour or so, and once again Tiger felt pangs of conscience. But, dash it, he couldn‘t tell her the truthâ€"how could he possibly say that he had been abligâ€" ed to take up the old Standish custom of slugâ€"hunting because the son of a man he had been forced to kill was out for his own blood? It just couldn‘t be done! The only thing was to be as speedy as possible in hunting this rat Carlimero out, and sending him to join hi parent. What is this?" he cried.

The latter in return lookâ€" ed as though he had just received the Accolade. self. As he strolled down St. James Etreet, exchanginng greetings with a man every dozen yards or so, he felt that life had never been so pleasant The old joie de vivre was present in quite large quantities at that moment. "Good morning, Mr. Standish," he said, with the smile he reserved for his special favourites. "Will you please ring up Whitehall 00113 immediately?" "Good morning, Latimer; I should like your opinion of this one." Taking out one of the pipes that he had purâ€" chased at Louis‘s the previous afterâ€" nmnoon, he drew the porter to one side and waited for the yverdict. "I don‘t think I‘ve ever seen a more beautiful grain, Mr. Standish," was the reverential comment after a couple of minutes of rapt inspection. "I‘m glad you like itâ€"put a little whisky in the bowl for a few hours kefore you start on it," and to the amazement of the servant he had passed on. t * Twenty minutes later, pretending to curse the fate which was sending him out into the cold, cold world instead of allowing him to bake in front of the huge smokingâ€"room fire, Tiger found himse}f in very familiar surroundings. How many times had he passed into this secret room of the Director of Q.i1.? In the big rack outside the smokingâ€" room, he found a note. Opening this he read: "What‘s the idea, Old. Fright?" he asked of Bellamy. "Didn‘t you tell me to get into touch with you at the club," was the affectâ€" edly indignant answer. "Certainly! But dash it all, I don‘t expect to be rung up by you at all hours of the day and night! I had searcely got into the place before I had to spend twopence dialing you.
