As in a dreadful dream, she heard Lady Warrington ramble ony distractedly: Bo awful to have this happen in my house. . .! I'd rented it for the Season, you know. . .! And now nothing could induce me to stay OR. . . .} Whoever could have done it? You poor child! On 'the very eve of your wedding! And you 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 wretehedly upset!" "What--what is Graves saying?" The same instinct that makes us bite on a painful tooth fofced Mar- cella to the question. , "Something about a late call. I was in bed, and I don't know.

Thought Marcella, with quick fear: "Is she trying to shield 'Miles? Is all this chatter to c6ver up what she suspects, against her wili?"- Lady Warrington pattéred on: "It too absurd to think he could be In the neighborhood, because if so--whers Would he stay but here? His girl--Léonle Day--is here. I am his friend. The house is open - to him. - : A knock came to the door, inter- rupting the vehement flow. Lady Warrington went to open it, trailing her peignoir on the floor. She was considerably 'workedup,' as Was only natural in the stances. : i 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 said: THE PACE THAT KILLS WOMEN It is getting more and more diffi- cult for many women to keep pace with the demands made upon their time and energy in family snd socal life without paying the penalty of ill health--that dreadful backache, pain in side, headache, nervousness, or the torture of a displacement.

He drew out the syllabie. "We shall want her evidemce. Has she just arrived?" Marcella nodded dumbly. The three went down to the hall. Graves was marching up and down, like a sentry. "Comg here, my man. The last person you kmew 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 said 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 kéep 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." this = Mr. Well, 7 ~ ART-RUGS Cleaned in a Twinkling ACK-BREAKING sweeping and beating are not vanish instantly with light mopping, bringing back the bright colors as fresh as new. : The siirface is accident-proof, seamless, water- proof and cannot absorb dust like woven floor coverings.

"Round about eleven, sir. Maybe a little later." "And everyone else in the house was in bed?" "In theif own rooms anyhow, sir," sald 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.
