the evidence of Identification much further,
and perhaps throw more light still upon
the case. Then comes the matter of the
letter; that looks like poser"
"In what wsy?" asked Sullivan, sharply.
"The Door woman writes this letter before
her interview with her husband. Do you
follow me?''
"Quite."
''She says in her letter that she will not
send 1t until she has made an appeal to her
husband and failed. Let us suppose now
that Mrs. Latour went to her husband, and
instead of succeeding, as the poor woman
seems to have had some slight hope that she
might; failed utterly, and never left the
place alive. How did the letter reach the
hands of Miss Marchant? Answer me that,
Mick Sullivan"
But Sullivan had no answer ready. After
remaining some time in deep thought he
ventured to suggest that Mrs. Latour might
have gone away again and posted her letter
and then returned, and that her husband,
finding her so persistent, put her out of the
way.
Utterly improbablel' cried Doggett.
what should she return for after she had
posted her letter? My view of the case is
this She went down to see him by night
for the sake of privacy. Think of his posi-
ton. Latour must marry his cousin to save
himself from ruin. His wife, he finds, has
discovered all. She knows that he is going
to marry another woman She knows who
that woman is, and where she lives. He tries
to laugh the matter of, and when that fails,
he threatens her. She is enraged, and returns
him hot words in her anger. He is in des-
perate position when he finds he cannot
move her, confronted as he is with exposure
and certain ruin. He has revolver in his
pocket and as she turns to go he shoots her,
aud probably with Gillett's help, buries
her. If we had not discovered the place had
been fired by him he would have paid Miss
Bradley's mortgage off with the insurance
money, rebuilt the premises, taking care
not to have that particular spot where he
had buried his wife disturbed, and the
poor thing would have been lying in her
grave still. and the murder would never
have been found out"
"Dcgggett, you are a geniusl' cried Sui
livan, in a burst of admiration.
"Am I?'' asked Doggett. coollv. ct am
not genius enough to fathom how a dead
woman walked out of her grave and posted
her letter to Marchant, and then walked
back again."
'The letter is facer," said Sullivan.
1T is facer," said Doggett, "but we
will clear that up somehow before very long
or my name is not Doggett''
Dogget, cried Sullivan, syou should
have been called Dogged. I never knew
such a fellow to hold on; and with this
mild joke the two cronies parted for the
night.

Mr. CrOunsc was reared. a knd-hearted man, who
never lost chance hold hope 10 the despairng
or sympathy the suffering. He was always really
with the proof that however hard neghbOrs lot Wa,
il might have been MANY f0ld worse: and his in
genuity at finding rccOmpcning gain for every loss
that any might suffer was a matter OF local
wOndement. -
one day somebody told Uncle Billy that his neigh
Dor, Thomas DarrOw, had fallen under the cars and
lost a leg.
Uncle Billy stood in silence several minutes look
ing at the ground Then, raising his eyes. he said
Well. I'm awful soi1y for poor Tom. but there $
consolation in the thought that pair o socks
N last him twice as long as they ust to, and to man
as poor a. he is that's good deal"
The next day Uncle Billy called the injured
man, and TO his surprise learned that Tom had lost
both legs. A little Disconnected. Uncle Billy stood
by the bed in solemn consideration Presently. how
ever his face frightened and he said
well, Tom If you hal 10 lose one leg it's mighty
good job that you lost two"
Z" Oh, Uncle Billy" said Tom, how you say
such thing"
"'Cause it's true, Tom true as Gospll. You see if
you'd only lost eg you'd DC ihinkin' about IT an
worritin' about II all the time but you see, tho
loss of each II 10 keep your mind of the
loss of the other It's great blessin you lost 'em
both. Tom steal o only one"
