"I was followed here, passed on to your floor-waiter. You are a spy, are you not?" she added, turning to the man. "But of course you are!" "Madame!" the man protested. "I do not understand."

The floor-waiter had manifested himself silently in answer to the bell, and was standing in the doorway. "Simmons!" Mr. Brewster turned to him wildly.
