green brilliance dazzled eyes.

A hand touched Burnlcle's shoul- der. Mrs. Tateleigh was there. "Your trunks call is through.” she whispered. Burnicle went out, si- lcntly. He took the call and re- turned to his place.

When the burglar came, even Burniele went cold. The others gasped. The Duchess grabbed her collar.

Into the half light had stepped a tall man, in shabby clothes, masked and carrying a cosh.

"Nah then." he growled, "don't iike any liberties. Me pal's out-

"Shut up, Teddy." the Duchess suddenly roared with laughter. '1 thoroughly enjoyed it.”

Burnicle relaxed. He found he was sweating. He wished to good- ness they would stop their tom- foolery. It-it was too realistic for his liking. Far too realistic. i

”Have a drink Teddy". Lorci Betwode was jubilant. Since he had arrayed himself for the occa- sion with a. tinny cigarette case and a. cheap wrist-watch, he could cxult with malicious fervour "Good show! Pity it came unstuek, but?" .

"This won't," said E voice, and the lights snapped out. "This is the real MacKye." Into the tire- lit hearthside stepped a second "burglar". Like Fol'tescue, he had sidled by way of two screens from a conveniently open door. "Shall I show you?" An automatic winked in lils fist. "Anyone dare me to shoot at the logs tliere?"

Agatha"-and Clavering passed over a great glowing emerald- "this is real; the one you are wearing is paste." ,

"Been in trouble more'n once." said Burnicle. "Never coiivicterl- but known to us as a master at counterfeiting Jewels and the like.
