i PAGE TOUR Bi ' - Ml n JXX EaaaW MHT H W INSTALMENT XXXV - From upper 5th avenue she drove to 34th street, then swung west and turned into Broadway An exciting sense of expeetancy took hold of her as she joined the mad, churning, jostling procession that crawled along in the glare of the white lights. Crowds were pouring out f ihe theatres, jamming the sidewalks and flowing o.ver into the street, 4 long undulating stream of faces. Electric signs wiggled crazily, motor horns blared, traffic whistles shrilled, the whole thoroughfare was a rigadoon of brilliance and din. And it thrilled Adele to think that in this clamoring, glamorous hurly-burly there was probably a pair of eyes looking clandestinely at her. She could scarcely move now. The car crawled only a few paces at a time, then stopped. At one of these stops she glanced quickly back. 'She had an impression that the door in jhe back had opened, then quickly closed again. She looked into- the tonneau, but no one was there. The jam cleared, and she crept forward, but she could proceed only a few yards, before a red globe flashed a stop' signal. She was wedged in a tightly massed legion of motor-care. Waiting, she glanced out over the welter of traffic. Forty- ejghtu street. It could not be . long.no-. . 1 A green signal flashed, and the legion thstfgfcff 'forward. Some thing flickered through the air and caught against the Inside of the w-Indshieia. Her hkrt gave a little! bound. She proceeded to the next stop, then unfolded the missive. "Grant's Tomb," was all It said. With a puzzled air she tore the note to bits while she waited for the signal to proceed. It seemed a strange rendezvous that Dr. Moffett' had designated. Again she was slowly squeezing her way through the crawling mass. Soon she turned west into Riverside drive. The congestion ceased she could go a little faster now. Presently the gray, ghostly masses of aj monument loomed against n horizon studded with lights. She slackened her speed. Dimly she saw a irrav ficure a short tance aead. A hand reached outj The steering wheel slipped for and made a signal. She stopped,, an Instant in Adele'sOiand. and the gray-clad figure slipped! "Careful." Joan cautioned, into ihe seat beside her.

And what was awaiting here at the end of the journey Would Dale be there, or had something happened to detain or mislead him? She dismissed her anxieties with a teas of the head and In-' haled deeply of the keen, invig- orating night air. The landscape grew more sparsely settled. Thev traversed shadowv iunirle nnH long, dark stretches of open land. They had just left Greenwich behind them when Joan urged "her to slow down at a cross road. Adele glanced at the mild in dicator. They had come only SO miles, although it. seemed much longer. Ahead of them stretched a long, winding ribbon of State road. Crossing this was a narrower dirt road extending In either direction into thick woods. Again Joan leaned out and looked back, and then she pointed to the woodland on the rkht-hand side of the main road. With a faint stab of trepidation Adele swung the car toward the heart of the black jungle. It bounced and slithered as It left the macadamized VghwaVj then righted itself. The headlight flung a sharp glare into the1 woods, as If to explore secrets 'that might lie I hidden ahead. ," ' ' ' "Almost there, now," saiHtfoan. "Where!" Adele a"sked. Her companion laughed a little. "I think the place w-is oncel called Cedar Lawn. It's a stunid name, for there are no cedars onjy oaks and pines. But then names don't mean anything most Vn Doea Dr. Moffett own It?" "Yes, but that's another name that doesn't mean much. I's an old estate that's gone to wrack and ruin. Dr. Moffett picked it up for a song a few years ago. It was a whim. He didn't expect ever to use it, but now M She paused and glanced back again. "I think we are safe now.! I didn't know," and she turned her head and gave her companion a shrewd, smiling glance, "bul what somebody might try to follow us." "Who?" "Oh, you can never tell. Mr Instance, -for cularly, "sometimes permits an opponent to think that he is the cleverer of the two." "And you think that Is what Mr. Dale is doing. We'll maybe. We'll see." The road narrowed. There were frequent turns and rocky places grew thicker, and more, tangled Suddenly. Joanr lausrhed' n clear, fjuiy,oncd laugh, of Jiheer amusement.

The road was becoming almost impassable. On the sides rose huge, scowling boulders. The woods looked a little threatening In their shroud of blackness. She set her jaw firmly against the little horde of fears snapping at her nerves. "That's the spirit," Joan re- marked.' "There's nothing to b afraid' of." Adele tossed her head In exasperation. Her companion seemed to have an uncanny knack of reading her thoughts. You will like Dr. Moffett," Joan assured her. "He has a pleasant kindly voice, and but I forgot. You hive already met him." A small sh!"er ran through Adele. What a weird metiny It had been! A voice speaking out of a green illumination 1 "Yes, but I didn't see his face." The other girl regarded her fixedly. "No, and I hope for yaur sake that you, never shall." Adele stared at her for a cu-ment and the wheels slithered into a big rut. "What do you mean?" Joan laughed nervously. "Dr. Moffett doesn't like to be seen by people. That is, he doesn't like to he seen in his role of Dr. Mof fett In his other role, he doesn't mind. Lots of people have seen him in that other role." Have I?" asked Adele after aJ moment's deep thought. les, but you didn't imagine he i was Dr. Dr. Moffett MH.tt. It you h.W ever then then look out! Her voice was edged with a note of dread that gave Adele a fint chill. In her mind she ran over her list of acquaintances. One of them, if her companion were telling the truth, must be Dr. Moffett. but which one? She could think of no one who seem ed to fit the role. "But there isn't much danger of that, Joan went on reassui- ingly. "Dr. Moffett is too care-1 rul." 1 hey fell silent. Adele's thoughts ran a twisted course, but time after time shi came back to Joan's warning as to what would happen to any one who should see and recognize Dr. Moffett. It was only a vague hint she had thrown out, but the very vagueness of it caused Adele's imagination to picture It as something horrible. A light twinkling among the trees made her heart beat a little faster. Another feelings of uneasiness came, but she fought it down. They emerged upon a plain where the growth of woods was less dense, and presently the headlights revealed an iron gate In a tall picket fence. "Cedar Lawn," said Joan. A shadowy form opened .the sate. Adele drove throuirh nHn "f irom J0U amnt ne that it it it,1, clang shut behind l!. " than you he heard her.

The headlights shone on a scene of decay neg. lected flower beds, famished shrubbery, gaunt, naked trees that stood In clusters over the grounds.
