THE WHISPEKINU CALLmv. Inspector Wra^jre followed the old butler through the green baize door on the tii>-toe of expectation. Here at last was a man who for years had lived at the verj' heart of the happen- ingrs which led up to the Beechwood i mystery and who seemed to want to tell him thinps. The pantry proved to ' be a cosy and secluded den, far remov- ' •d from the clatter of the kitchen, I hardly in a poMtion to throw stones from your poor little glass house, Ivy. Your disclosure to me aout that dose of poiion would interest Scotl|tnd Yard far more than your unconfirmed recol- lections of Simon's diary." For a moment tho woman seemed to be nonplussed by the baronet's counterstroke. "I don't care," she broke out agrain. "I'd go to the gallows gladly, If you were to hang, too. And Simon's diary will work that all right." "But you haven't got Simon's diary â€" at least so you say," Sir Dudley re- turned. "Look here, Ixtt, why can't we run this on business lines? We are both tarred with the same brush, and the tar is thicker on you than on me. I^et's call it a deal. I don't be- lieve you were fool enough to burn Simon's record, which would bo your only real hold on me- I wili give you ten thousand pound.s for it." "You brute â€" to Sfuppose I want your money," her anger rang out. "You have got to accept my terms or I give you nway." Sir Dudley shrugged and, walking to tho table, poured himself a stiff drink. "If that is your ultimatum', here's mine," he said calmly. "As soon as you start giving me away I shall lay I "No error there, sir," the butler re-|an information against you for doing and evidently a sanctum into which due caution they mounted a back stair minor satellites of the household case, traversed several corridors and would not dare to intrude. { so came to a spare bedroom on the Hinkley produced a bottle of port front landing. Mere the butler did and with trembling fingers filled two '[ something to the carved mantel-piece glasses. "I'm all shaken up, sir," he said. "I heard you tell the mn.ster that Miss Kathleen and Captain Slater have •loped â€" but it can't be true. There was no need for them to run away to- gether. Both of age and Lady Mar- rabies set on the match. There's some- thing behind it all." Wraggc felt that it would bo good policy to give confidence for confidence. "I agree with you," ho said. "I don't mind telling you that for tho moment 1 am more concerned with Miss Kath- leen Glenlster's safety than with tracking her brother's murderer. What exactly do you apprehend has befallen her, Mr. Hinkley?" "God knows," was the reply. "I don't trust the master since our young lady turned against him over that ] ghastly finger, sweet as ho u.sed to be on her. Ho was away all yesterday till late at night, and he went out again after breakfast this morning. He had only just come in when you called." "Sco here, Mr- Hinkley, all this is very serious," tho Inspector said in his moat seductive tone.

Did the reprobate intend to reveal his presence, and if not what were the chances that he would be able to re- treat without being seen? Mrs. Con- ings by had her back to the window and unless she turned round the ap- I pnrition there would remain unnoticed i by her so long as it preserved silence. I But Sir Dudley had only to raise hi.s I eyes from the woman confronting him and he could hardly fail to perceive I the malign countenance of his former i clerk. This was exactly what happene<l. I In setting down his empty glass the baronet had to turn slightly to the win- ' dow, and the detective, watching him like a cat, saw by the gleam of sur- ; prised hoiTor that he had recognized j Trickcy. Wragge could scarcely con- i tain himself. Would Sir Dudley rush I forward, fling open tho window and j demand explanations from the disso- j lute blackmailer who had so myster- I iously risen from the dead, or would I he conceal his discovery from the wo- man who had somehow faileil to ad- minister a fatal dose to the man out- iden, Mr. Hinkley!" Wragge egged, j "There is not a moment to spare." j The butler gave some brief direc- |tions and a minute later Wragge emerged from the gunroom door by which Norman and Kathleen had left , the mansion on a certain memorable night. A few steps brought him round the angle of the house and so into view of his quarry. Mr. Simon Trickey was still hovering near the library window, having only withdrawn far enough to be invisible from the in- terior. (To be continued.) ARE PALE PEOPLE WELL? Some pale people are well, but not many. Pallor generally means thin blood. When, In addition, you are short of breath, and your heart pal- pitates after slight exercise and you perhaps show symptoms ot indiges- tion and nervousness, there Is no doubt about It. You are In an amae- mic condition. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are the logical remedy for anaemlma, for they begin at once to build up the thin blood, strengthen the nerves. Increase the appetite and aid digestion. But do not wait too long. Thin blood Is a stealthy and dangerous foe. If you will send your name and ad- dress to The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockvllle, Ont., they will send yo\i two little bookletts, "Building Up tho Blood," and "What to Eat and How to Eat," both ot which will bo found very useful In the home.
