"Seems quite like a fairy tale."
Just then the moon came out from behind the clouds. I was scared the woman would catch sight of me, for I was full in the moonlight. I tried to move back a bit. The jerk I gave was too much for that rotten old branch. With an almighty crash, down it came, and Julius P. Hersheimmer with it!" "Oh, Julius," breathed Tuppence, "how exciting! Go on."
"I mustn't keep you. Go on with the affairs of the nation. I must get back to my case." Two days later Julius Hersheimmer returned from Manchester. A note from Tommy lay on his table: "DEAR HERSHEIMMER, "Sorry I lost my temper. In case I don't see you again, good-bye. I've been offered a job in the Argentine, and might as well take it. "Yours,

"Now, Mr. Hersheimmer, perhaps you will be so kind as to come to the point?" "I guess that won't take a minute," drawled Julius. Then, with an abrupt change of manner: "Hands up or I shoot!"
"Where are you going?" "To buy the car, of course," replied Julius, surprised. "What make do you like? I guess you'll do some riding in it before we've finished."

"Miss Finn," he said, "this is your cousin, Mr. Julius P. Hersheimmer." A faint flush flitted over the girl's face, as Julius stepped forward and took her hand. "How do, Cousin Jane?" he said lightly.
It will be COLOSSAL!" "Money doesn't worry me any," explained Julius simply. Dr. Hall turned an appealing face to Sir James, who smiled slightly. "Mr. Hersheimmer is very well off very well off indeed." The doctor's glance came back to Julius with a new and subtle quality in it. This was no longer an eccentric young fellow with a habit of falling off trees.
Have you here now, or have you had here at any time, a young girl called Jane Finn? He repeated the name thoughtfully. 'Jane Finn? he said. 'No. "I was chagrined, and I guess I showed it.
