INSTALMENT TEN A Bench For Two Dale jumped into a taxi and hurried away to keep the appointment of which he had spoken. His face had worn a light frown when he left the restaurant but it changed quickly to a whimsical expression. At one Of the entrances to Central Fark he dismissed the taxi and walked briskly inside. A girl was seated on a bench, and he gave hera quick and unobtrusive inspection, then raised his hat. "I believe you are Miss Adele Castle" he murmured. "Yes," said Adele, regarding him a little doubtfully out of her dark, troubled eyes. "But you" she hesitated "certainly you are not the Picaroon." "Why not?" he asked lightly. Her lips relaxed a little. "Anyway, sheep's clothing is becoming to you." "Thsaks. Is there room for two on that bench r She edgftd awar a little, making room for him, and she was still retarding him witlt a shy, questioning glance. "I'm glad you came." said Dale, sitting down beside her. "I was not sure you would." Well. I hesitated a bit, but when one is desperate, then there is nothing to do but clutch at whatever straw may come along." Dale nodded. He twirled his stick between, his knees and gazed Thrilling' Mystery Story In 30 chapters HERMAN UN DON seem to have information In your possession that could destroy my father." "Nonsense, Miss Castle. You are not at my mercy. You don't believe for a moment that I would use the Information I have in an unprincipled manner. Da you?" "No," she replied faintly, after a little period of hesitation, during which she scanned his frank ixpresslon arid clear-cut features.

Let me tell you a! secret. The Picaroon visited Doctor Moffet's house one dark nijrht' about a month ago. It was just chance that brought him there: that time. He didn't see Doctor Moffett, but he observed a num ! ber of curious things. He decided! to make a return visit and find out some more. That's hov he happened to be present during your interview with the doctor." "Oh, I see." She smiled faintly, but soon her face sobered again. "He told.mj he is the ugliest man in creation. That's one reason why he doesn't want to be seen. Now, If we should come face to face with a very ugly man" Dale laughed. "Yes, that would shatter Doctor Aloffett's anony mity. If he really is as ugly as he told you, then he would be very conspicuous In a crowd. Rut it s possible he told you a lie." "I hadn't thought of that." Well, we can't be certain. Maybe he lied, or maybe he told the truth."
