UNIPER-HALLETT’S next obvious step was to report to

Lord Archwin of Crosley that he had arrived at the

Stromberg laboratories just as the Strombergs learned that

somebody else had made off with the precious dormouse.

He didn’t relish the prospect. Lord Archwin might have re­gretted already sending an untrained young sprig out to gum-shoe and be glad of an excuse to call the deal off and put a professional Sherlock on the job. So Juniper-Hallett was re­lieved next morning when he learned at the Crosley building that Archwin Taylor-Thing was down at the Exposition, which was closing that day.

Juniper-Hallett was starting out of the receptionist’s vesti­bule when he noticed a man sitting with a brief case—not a businessman’s fancy leather one, but a plain rubberoid bag— in his lap. The man had a large quantity of curly black hair, tinted spectacles, and beard. Juniper-Hallett did not know any men with beards, but still this one did not look unfamiliar to him.
