a window. would start afresh the gossip and Wills
pered words, What can II beyn But nobody seem
cd TO care enough to look after it, anu IL would again
die out of th- pubic mind; and so for years this
mystery has hung around this grand old house and
magnificent family, and is now just coming out 10

The skeleton was a girl-sweet, pretty, and as pale
as ghost-whose mind had been impaired from

effort had been made for years to cure this girl, now
