Gatlin retired from baalaese. willed Penelope all his money, and was about to begin a search fer his daughter when a motor aoeldont ended his Ufa. ; CHAPTER H.?Some ten years la tar, la San Francisco, Stephen Burt, a rising young psychiatrist, was presented by Dan McNamara, chief of police, with a new patient?Nance Belden, a girl whose terrible child hood had left her with a dual per sonality, for which her "saddle nose" was in part responsible. McNamara did not think she was a responsible criminal and obtained Burt's ex part testimony in court Even Lun ar. the doctor's faithful oflice nurse, was won over to her cause despite Nance's hard-boiled exterior. CHAPTER IIL?Nance's criminal record outweighed Doctor Burt's clear explanation of her case and she wee sent to San Quentin peni tentiary for two years Lenny vis ited her and Nance persuaded her to smuggle out a letter which a confederate stole from her handbag outside the prison walla CHAPTER IV.?Nance escaped, al though shot, by swimming out to a speed-boat manned by friends and went te Lenny's apartment Lenny told Chief McNamars, who ordered her to bring Nance to his apart ment and phoned for Doctor Burt CHAPTER V.?Ono of the men in the boat on which Nance escaped? two of them ez-convi^ta, the other a bootlegger?had been wounded and they went to Burt's office, where McNamara found them. The bootlegger he let go and he took the others to his home, ordering the uninjured one to care for Nance and his paL From them he learned that Nance's seal name was Pen elope Gatlln. Detective Sergeants Flynn and Angelloti, seeking the reward offered for Nance's appre hension, went to Land^s apartment in search of Nance. Looking over her San Quenttn cell, McNamara found a blank check on a San Jose bank. CHAPTER VL?From the San Jose banker McNamara learned that the girl he knew as Nance Belden wss Penelope Gatlln, heiress to f750,000. The banker did not know 'enelope't whereabouts. Mrs. Gat lln was now the wife of a man named Merton. McNamara ordered Detective Sergeants Flynn mid An gelloti to "lay off" Lanny, whom they suspected of harboring Nance. CHAPTER VIL?When Lanfly got home one evening she found Nance sound asleep, curled up on her guest-room bed. Several days later the hardboiled exterior of Nance Belden suddenly vanished and the girl became the refined Penelope Gatlln. Her partially restored mem ory led ber to tell Lanny of her wealthy father, Theodore Gatlln. and of her girlhood In Franca "Tried slippln' her ont the back door, eh?" Angelloti exalted, and dashed through the house, with Lan ny at his heels. As he went out the kitchen door, Laimy slammed and bolted It behind him, and then, even as D*n McNamara had predicted, nature took her coarse. Nance dropped the remainder of the bombs and came dashing down the stairs. "Good-by, Loony, darling." she cried happily. "We'll meet again." Lan ny switched off the hall light, and Nance was through the front door and gone. Across the street two coopes stood at the- curb, the mo tors of both turning over slowly. Alternately the girl's finger was pointed st each car. "My?mother she murmured, and when, through tha aid of thla childhood formula, she had made her decision, she leaped into the coupe of Messrs. Flynn and Angelloti and went rapid ly away. Lenny, watching her from tha darkened doorway, saw that -she had taken tha wrong car, bnt was afraid to cry out and warn her.

Angeilotft - voice trembled with the sincerity of his purpose. The respective wives of the worthy i*lr telephoned down to the:. chief of the detectives next morn ing and informed him that their husbands were confined to bed with influenza. It was not a police car In which NtfQce bad escaped, but the private vehicle of Detective Sergeant Flynn, and its loss tronbled him un til the car was found, abandoned . out In the Mission, about twenty- ! flour hours later. A glance at the speedometer comforted Flynn. The car had been driven six miles. In company with Angellotl (both now happily recovered from their ter rible experience) he drove In the same car from Loony's house, via the most direct route, to the point where c patrolman had picked up the car; thence via the route fol lowed by the patrolman when he came off duty and drove the car; to > the central station and reported It The mileage was six and two-tenths miles I "She's holed up within a block or two of where she left the car," Flynn decided. .< "Not such a cold trail, after all," Angellotl exulted. "We'll Just have ] to patrol the neighborhood In our off moments. Fm sure the girl doesn't know she swiped your car, and that she gave us a clue to fol low her." U?z _ Zt J.U J ? A.? 1.

"I think It might be a good idea to Interview the druggist In the neighborhood and see If she's been In to buy a new lipstick." A round of the neighborhood drug stores, however, proved barren of a new lead, and as they had other matters claiming their attention, they were forced to abandon the search that day. Dan McNamara" was much too in- 1 telligent to make inquiries of the assistant district attorney who had Issued the search warrant, but when informed that Flynn and An gelloti were down with flu he called up Lenny at Stephen's office, and received a meticulous report "You say the girl fled in the car my dicks arrived In?" he queried. "That's terrible. A description of the car must have been broadcast to all outlying police and the surrounding country stations Immediately by Flynn and Angelloti, and Nance will be picked up somewhere down state." "We've done our damnedest," Lan ny replied cheerfully. "Angels can do no more. I borrowed the car you left'out front It's in a garage. Fll send you the claim check." For a week, the chief waited for news of Nance Belden, but no news came through beyond some gossip around the central-station that the car had been driven but three miles and then abandoned?for which evidence that the Almighty was still on his side the worthy fellow was grateful. > So Nance was still In the city! McNamara's mind worked so auto matically he did not even have to ?. . tell himself that, undoubtedly, she had taken sanctuary within a short distance of the spot where she had abandoned Flynn's car. nor did be have to remind himself that Flynn and Angelloti would come to the same conclusion. He had no diffi culty In ascertaining the spot where the car bad been recovered. "Folsom street and Sixteenth, eh?" he reflected. "Residential flat buildings and cheap apartment houses, cheap rooming houses and worlringmen's hotels. No. she wouldn't go to one ot thoge. Not what she is?she has class?and she has two hundred dollars in her pos sesion. She's holed up with a friend. What friend? Why, Ella Cates, of course."
