"Bo awful to have this happen in my house. . .! I'd rented it for the season, you know. . .! And now H 'nothing could Induce 'me to stay on. , . .! Whoever could have done it? You poor child! On the very eve of your wedding! And yon adored him; didn't you? Such a charming man! Bo suitable! And Graves is saying such queer things about that delightful boy, Miles Holden! I'm furious with Graves! You know . the lower classes. . .such odd minds! I'm wretchedly upset!" "'What--what is Graves saying?" The same instinct that makes us bite on a painful tooth forced Mar- cella to the question. ¢/ "Something about a late call. I was in bed, and I don't know. Graves is half blind, I think, and in any case that downstairs hall is frightfully badly lit. . .an antique stable-lantern. .one would hard- ly recognize one's best friend. . ." Thought Marcella, with quick fear: "Is she trying to shield Miles? Is' all this chaser to cover up what she suspects, against her will?" Lady Warrington pattered. on: "It too absurd to think he could be In the neighborhood, because if so--where would he stay but here? His girl--Leonie Day---is here. I am his friend. The house is open to him. - A knock came to the door, inter- rupting the veNement flow, Lady Warrington went to open it, trailing her peignoir on the floor. She was considerably 'workedup,' as was only natural in the circum- stances. . An officer of the law stood on tHe threshold. He held something glit- tering in his hand. "We found this in the long grass not far from the window, Ma'am," he said quietly, cautiously display- ing a revolver. Both women fell back at once. "Don't be afraid. I took out the other cartridges." 'He 'turned the Weapon round. "Ordinary pattern, but it'll give a clue." He looked keenly at Marcella, and Lady Warrington sald: THE PACE THAT KILLS WOMEN It is getting more and more diffi- cult for many women to keep pace with phe demands made upon their time and energy in family and social 'Hite without paying the penalty of i1l- health--that dreadful backache, pain in side, headache, nervousness, or the torture of a displacement. Before any more serious ailment develops, wo- men should take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, which strength- ens the system and rings glorious "health to sick and ailing 'wotlien. "This is the young lady who was going to marry the--the murderad man." . "Ah!" He drew out the syllabie. | "We shall want her evidence. Has she just arrived?" ? Marcella nodded dumbly. : The three went down to the hall, Graves was marching up and down, like a sentry. " "Comé here, my man. The last person you knew of, to enter the house before the murder was--" "Mr. Holden, sir," came the quick reply. "Did you notice anything peculiar about him?" The butler hesitated. "He was excited. - He sald he must see Mr. Treman, right away. It was important." * "And you went up to Mr. Tre- man's room, and knocked?" - "Yes, sir. Mr. Treman was in his dressing-gown, reading a book, in an armchair." "Did he agree to see Holden?" "He didn't seem too pleased. He kind of hesitated, and then asked me what the gentleman's business was, and couldn't it keep until the morn- ing?" "And you said--?" "Just what I said to you, sir-- that the gentleman seemed agitated and said he must see Mr. Treman." The police official raised . his brows. "Peremptory, wasn't he? what then?" "Mr. Treman gave a short, hard kind of laugh, muttered something that sounded like: 'the fool!" and then told me to show him up." "You did so?" "Yes," A pause. Graves looked uncom- fortable, as though more lay be- hind all this, and yet he dreaded to unfold the tale. "What time was this?" "Round about eleven, sir. Maybe a little later." "And everyone else in the house was in bed?" "In their own rooms anyhow, sir," said the butler. He looked at Lady Warrington, as though for help. She nodded confirmation. "Had you retired?' : Graves looked embarrassed. "Br--yes--in a way of speaking. But I hurried on my things, and went to answer the door. I kept the gentleman waiting perhaps five minutes. He looked apologetically at his mistress. He wasn't suppos- ed to retire until eleven-thirty. The police official was jotting down the answers in a little book. "You showed Mr. Holden up to Mr, Treman's room, and then wait- ed downstairs?" .« ; "Yes, sir. But I got tired of waiting, and. went up again." He hesitated. "There werd sounds of dispute, air. Mr. Treman's voice was raised. I couldn't help hearing--" The head of 'the police looked ex- this Mr. Wat, 3 IE J YH ¥ Olive Roberts Bartor Peddler and the Cook. While Nancy and Nick and Daddy Gander were watching the King of Yum Yum Land eating the wonder- ful dinner that the magic fork and the magic teapot provided, things were not going so well in the palace. The peddler sat on the throne in the king's place, with the king's crown on his head and the king's golden stick in his hand and the king's velvet robe over his shoulqd- But nobody can be a king if he is a peddler at heart and the ped- dier was a mean peddier to begin with, . On t that he was having in. digestion, for the cook was stil sulking and serving horrible meals from the kitchen. "I should at least nar been made Royal r of the Bird Cages," the cook kept saving over and over again to himself. "After doing a favor for everybody, what do 1 get? Nothing! I can be a cook all the rest of my days. And if I have to be a cook, I am going to take it easy. I'm not going to fix a thing that I don't have wo, So for dinner he had cold mutton and salty potatoes, and tough beans, and horrid ple with a soggy crust, And really the coffee was like dish- water, : When the peddler went into the royal dining room and sat down at the royal table in the royal chair, he smacked his lips, (having been brought up with no mann at all)-and tueked his napkin iid chin (which also showed that , he had been brought up with no man- ners) and thumped his knife and fork on the table. ; "Bring on the foou:!™ he com- manded.

"A quarrel?" "Practically, Sir." Marcella shivered. The web was tightening. . . .everything was be- ing chonicled in that dreaaru: uttle book. "What did you hear?' Graves hesitated again, opened his mouth, shut it, and opened it again. He looked extremely like a tish. "Well, 'we're waiting.
