It was Bigelow mounted the steps be- tween Kocky and tlic officer. All the fig'it was '^owk from him. A squa 1 car slid up *o the curb- stone as McCale turned to follow the trio.

Don. vy (ook over with a brus- queness that was unfamiliar. He herded them all into the library, where an astonished and shaking butler was fussing around Miss Adelaide. Slie stood, a figure of stone, drained of all aniination. Her face was gray against the mantel, anguislied. "Steplien," she said in a mur- mur that became a cry. The young-ol(i face of Stephen looked half ugly, half despairing in the dim light. There was a haunted look behind his eyes. He wet his lips with the tip of his tongue. Suddenly he slumped into a chair. "Yes", McCale said. His sophis- ticated mouth curled in triumph and his tone was brittle. "Jt was Stephen Bigc'ow, dressed as a sailor, whom we saw loitering about the entrance to the Common just before the murder. lie looked up at the house once, remember? He must have seen us at the bay window of the drawi.ig room, for the ne.xt time I notiicd him, he was reading a paper, probably to hide his face. When Vallaincourt approached the house, he nmst liav' come across the street into the shelter rf the arcaway that goes under the front steps â€" the service entrance. When Curt was passing, he sinij)ly stepped up to him and fired pointblank." McCale loi)ke<l at Donlevy and his men. who were grouped over the crestfallen culprit. Donlevy looked \\\i at him. It was so simple, nally. now that it was explained. He <lid say, the ghost of derision oi. his lips, "Peculiar no one men- tioiicfl a sailor '-anging around." "I know," .^IcCâ- ale answered bit- terly. My fault entirely. I pride my.seW on having a photographic niin<l, .-nd I missed • at, Ido. .Men in I he service are so common about the streets these days that they go almo<it unnoticed any- where. That is where he was so clever. Who would conned a sail- or with the liigelows? One thing I should have seen, though, most certainly. I'll never forgive my- self for that." â- 'Wha'.'s that?" asked Donlevy. McCale reached out and took the hat Stephen Itigelow had in his hand. He rocked a finger and spun the thing around hkc a plate. 'Wei;, I'll be damned," Donlevy exploded. "I don't blame )ou." There was chagrin in McCale's tone. "This hat is perfectly round which identi- fii's it as the type worn a number of years ago. The style wa$ clungcd about five years ago. The newer rues tilt up in front like a regimental officer's cip without a visor. If I'd loticed that one thing, I'd have realized ihe sailor we sav, was a phoney." He sighed. , "It miglif Hiave saved a life." He thought of Shari I.yyn. Donlevy cleared his throat. Then there was a rustle of feathers and satin at the door and \'ictoria wbir'.'d i:i. Her eyes were bright and her m,->.ke-up stood out in ghastly re.icf against the paleness of her face. Her fingers jerked to her hair and a shviel: died on hor lips. Two officers moved forward automatically. She blurted some wild gibberish that foretold rising hysteria; then suddenly was quiet. "So you did it," she said slowly. "My God, I didn't think you had the guts. Vou fool, you fitter fool. She isn't worth it. you know â€" not worth it." I5y this lime Donlevy was rat- tled. He moved in on Stephen with a circle of his moii. He gave the charge so low it was hardly audi- ble. His voice dropped for an in- terminable minute before he step- ped back. .\s he did. McCale saw Bigelow's jaw move, his head come up slowly. Tired, furtive eyes lit up as he I >oked away from the group that surrounded him. A sin- gfe tear ran out of the corner of an eye. « >c « He got to his feet, lowering his head as he slowly turned to take them all in. No one moved toward him. He gave them a contemptu- ous glare. Finally he turned to Victoria and spOke his last words in their presence. "Vou il tell â€" Mother? ' His voice broke. She nodded. "Let's go." said Donlevy. They took him away. They had left the Bigelow house in a storm of question? from the first reporters on the scene, in the din of explosions from photogra- phers' flash bulbs, in the confusion of the comings and goings of of- ficials from police headquarters and the district attorney's office. McCale was looking forward to the peace and quiet of his own apartment. *â- â- â€¢*â-  ♦ When they reached it, they found .Ann Marriot dozing by the dying fire, ."^he jumped \\\i. smooth- ing rumpled hair into place.

It came over the radio about an hour ago. You would have to wrestle with mur- derers, wouldn't you? You sure you feel all right?" She was try- ing hard- to cover up her concern.

Your Handwriting and You By Alex S. Amott Many requests for baiidwritiiiy an- alysis reach me and I am pleased lo report many interesting and varied handwritings. When writing your request, it is advantageous to send one or more full pages of script written in ink on good quality plain pai)er. Ink is more satisfactory than pencil due to its permanent qualities, also ink will not smear or run on quality paper. Paper without ruled lines . is necessary as the spacing and direction of the writing is an extra consideration in the analysis. Use the pen with which you are accustomed to writing and not a pen with which you al"c not famil- iar. The pen nib should be free from corro.sion as a coated nib caus- es heavy and lif,ht shadows in the scrijit with uneven and wave- eriiig lines. Writing that is untidy with blots, scratches and smears due lo a bad pen nib, hi.-'Ier in conveying the true personality of the writer. Write in the best hand- writing you can«vhilc in a comfort- able and natural writing position. When tlic above suggestions are followed, the script contains all the elements of your true personalily. H Ihc script is distorted and care- Icsly written, the analyst must make allowances for such discrepancies when making an analysis. Anyone wishing a more complete analysis pleast send telf-addrested stamped tnvelot'e to Box B, room «l, 7i Adelaide St. West. Toronto.

Arc ihe.v satisfied with present educational facilities for their children? Are Canadian women shining up to their responsibil- ities among the women of the world? Questions like these will be discussed at a two-day Women's Forum to take place at the Can- adian National Exhibition Aug. .10. ;'.l. Kate .Aitken, Director of Women's -Activities, has announ- ced . Miss Mabel Stoakley of Toronto has been named chair- man of the four sessions to be held in tlie theatre of the Col- iseum, West Annex. "Guest speakers in the panel discussions will attempt to clar- ify the place of women in an intelligent Canada," Mrs. .Aitkcn said. "They will talk over wo- men's responsibilities in the home, the community, the nation and the world." Representatives of all wo- men's organizations and wcmen everywhere are invited to at- tend these sessions to ask ques- tion.^ and join generally in the open discussions. . Keep It Covered . Science announces a new cooking rule, according to Pathfinder: Cover the pan when heating milk. Why? Light destroys riboflavin, the B-vilamiii for which milk is the main source. Keeping the milk in the dark retains most of it. Other advantages are that milk heats slightly faster when covered, and the hd keeps a skin from formiiit; on the surface. One cau- tion: Covered milk boils over easi- ly, needs close watching. Sunday School LessM Parents and Their Children Politically Impossible Voter: "ll'hy.

Golden I e.ft â€" Vrfini up a chilrt in Ihe n-ny he should go: and tvhrii he is old. he will not depart from il.â€"l'ruvers 22:5: The Bible is a tcj;t-book not tmly of individual salvation, hut also of family religion. When Ihe Philippian jailer (Act* 16). terror-stricken lest his prison- ers should have escaped, but reas- sured by the voice of Paul, cried "What must 1 do to he saved?" Paul replied, "Believe o.i Ihc Lord .Jesus tlirist. and thou shalt I>e saved, and thy house." Bui family religion had deep roots In ihc Old Tcstamenl. and in the .lewish literature Were many pre- cepts, giving wise counsel to par- ents, and selling forth the duties of children, thus establishing with clear- ness the conditions of family wel- fare and a happy home-life. .Some of the choicest of these pre- cepts constitute our lesson. It ought to be noted how strongly they stress the law and commandments. "My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mo- ther." There must be standards of righl, and a sense of responsibility, if there are lo be sound relationships and happiness in the home. The acceptance of parenthood without an adequate sense of re- sponsibility is the root of a great deal of home breakdown and trag- edy today. A first essential of a good home is gsod parents. What can be expected of children, if their par- ents do not set them a good cjc- ample? ^foreovcr, precept and teach- ing arc not enough, for children wiH soon delect insincerity, and the worst of all counsel we could give to our children would be to say, "Don't do as I do, but do as 1 say." "Train up a child in the way he should go," is the Bible's injunction to parents, with the assurance that when he is old he will not depart from it. Alas ! that assurance is not always justified, lor many influences are upon the child, as well as those of the home, and too often they break down and destroy what the home has sought to do. The most acute of our social and rehgious problems of today are as- sociated with home and family life Bad Pun Department A certain ambitious young movie actress complained to a declining star: "It irks me to think that I get only one hundred thousand dollars a picture.' 7 tvhich the other rejoined : "Nice irk if you can get il."
