ing his hand on Muller's knee. Asta did not speak, but she reached
out in the darkness of the cab, caught Muller's hand and would have
raised it to her lips, had not the little man drawn it away hastily. "It
was only my duty, dear young lady," he said. "A duty that is not onerous
when it means the rescue of innocence and the preventing of crime. It is
not always so, unfortunately--nor am I always so fortunate as in this
case."

This indeed is what Muller calls a "case with a happy ending," for
scarcely a year later, to his own great embarrassment, he found himself
the most honoured guest, and a centre of attraction equally with the
bridal couple, at the marriage of Kurt von Mayringen and Asta Langen.
Muller asserts, however, that he is not a success in society, and that
he would rather unravel fifty difficult cases than again be the "lion"
at a fashionable function.
