Iilaced in custody.
"Her attitude was certainly not

though. But it was just the part
a shrewd woman. 1 iwing herself

"Do you think we didn't check
- up on that, point?" Markliam spoke
wllh disdain. "Captain T.cticock
was at his own apartment that
night from S o'clock on."
"Was he, really?" airily retorted
Vance. "A most model young fella!"
Again Markliam looked at him
sharply.
"I'd like tn know what weird
theory lias been struggling in your
hraln today." In mused. "Now that
I've lot the lady go temporally—
which is what you obviously
wanted- me to do—, and have stul-
tified my own better judgment in
so doing, why not tell niu frankly
what you've got up your sleeve?"
" 'Up my sleeve?' Such ail inele-
gant metaphor! One would think I
was a prestidig'tator, what?"
Whenever Vance answered In
this fashion it was a sign tbat he
wished to avoid iiiakJng a direct
i ply; and Markliam dropped the
after.

Clair's visit. Markliam had lapsed
into an int respective silence which
lasted until we were again seated
in the alcove of the club's lounge-
room. Then he spoke irritably.
"Damn it! I shouldn't have let
her go. ... I still have a feeling
she's guilty."
Vance assumed an air of gushing
credulousness.
"Oh. really? I dare say you're so
psychic. Been tliiif way all your
life, no doubt. And haven't you had
lots and lots of dreams that came
true? I'm sure you've often had a
'phone call from someone you were
thinking about at the moment. A
delectable gift. Do you read palms,
also? . . . Why not have tlio lady's
horoscope cast?"
"I have no evidence as yet,"
Markliam retorted, "that your be-
lief in her innocence Is founded on
anything more substantial than
your impressions."
"Ah, but it is," averred Vance.
"I know she's innocent. Further-
more, I know that no woman could
lie blundering most shamefully."
Markliam grunted indignantly.
"And yet you seem to have re-
pudiated all processes of deduction
whereby the truth may be arrived
at. Have you, by any chance, en-
tirely renounced your faith in the
operations of the human mind?"
"Ah. there speaks the voice of
God's great common people!" ex-
claimed Vance. "Your mind is so
typical, Markliam. It works on the
principle tbat what you don't know
isn't knowledge, and tbat, since
you don't understand a thing, I1 ere
is no explanation. A comfortable
point of view, it relieves one from
all care and uncertainty. Don't
you find the world a very sweet
and wonderful place?"
Markliam adopted an attitude of
affable forbearance.
"Y ,u spoke at lunch time, I be-
lieve, of one infallible method of
detecting crime. Would you care
to divulge this profound and price-
less secret to a mere district at-
torney ?"
Villic9 bowed with exaggerated
courtesy.*
"Delighted, I'm sure," he re-
turned. "I referred to the science
of individual character and the
psychology of human nature. We
ail do things, d' ye see. in a certaiu
individual way, according to our
remp'raments. Every human act-
no matter how large or how small
is a direct, expression of a man's
personality, and bears the inev'table
impress of his nature.
"Thus, a musician, by looking at
a sheet ot music, is able to tell at
once whether it was composed, for
example, by Beethoven, or Schu-
bert, or Debussy, or Chopin. And
an artist, by looking at a canvas,
knows immediately whether it. is a
Corot, a Harpignies, a Rembrandt,
or a Franz Hals. And Just as no
two faces are exactly alike, so no
'wo natures are exactly alike: the
combination of ingredients which
go to make up our personalities,
varies in each individual.
"That is why, when 20 artists, let
us say, sit down to paint the same
subject, each one conceives and ex-
ecutes it in a different manner. The
result in each case is a distinct and
unmistakable expression of the per-
sonality of the painter who did it
. . . It's really rather simple, don't
y' know."
"Your theory, doubtless, would
be comprehensible to au artist,"
said Markhani, in a tone of indul-
gent. irony. "But its metaphysical
refinements are, I admit, consid-
erably beyond the grasp of a vulgar
worldling like myself."
" 'The mind inclined to what is
false rejects the nobler course,"
murmured Vance, with a sigh.
"There is," argued Markliam, "a
slight difference between art and
crime."
"Psychologically, old chap, there's
none," Vance amended evenly.
"Crimes possess all the basic lac-
tors of a work of art—approach,
conception, technique, imagination,
attack, method, and organization.
Moreover, crimes vary fully as
much in their manner, their
aspects, and their general nature,
