qIndigestion is making an awful record
as cause of sudden deaths. 1t is beat
ing heart-failure in its CHASTITY harvest.
qYou read in the papers daily of appar-
emily healthy and even robust men being
suddenly attacked with acute indigestion
after enjoying hearty meal, and Of their
dying in many cases before a physician
could be called i'll.
qThis should be warning to you who
suffer with regular or periodical attacks
of indigestion. If these unfortunate VIC
tins of acute indigestion had taken a
small dose of Green's August Flower be-
fore or after their meals they would not
have fallen a prey to such sudden seizures.
QAugust Flower prevents indigestion by
creating good digestion. 1t also regulates

And, t1inging quarters right and left,
he smiled in such pompous, self salts
fed way ut the hurrah and scramble
which ensued, that it was well worth
my journey there just to see this eNhi-
bition of combined vanity and good
humor.
"Now go!' he vociferated; and the
urchins, black and white, flew away,
flingng up their heels in delight and
shouting: "Bully for you, Uncle David!
Well come again next year, not for
twenty -tives, but fifties."
II will make it dollars if l only
live so long," he muttercd. And deign-
ing now to remember the question
had put to him, he grandly remarked:
II am going straight into town. Can
l do anything for you:"
Nothing l thought you might like
to know what awaits you there. The
city is greatly stirred up. The coro-
ners jury in the Jeffrey Moore case has
just brought in verdict to the effect
that suicide has not been proved.
Naturally, this is equivalent to one of
murder
"Ah"' he calculated, slightly taken
aback for one SO invariably impressive.
"And to whom is the guilt of this
crime ascribed!' he presently vcn,urcl

"Now, Miss futile, will you tell us
why you went to that drawer-if you
did go to that drawer-immediately
after Mrs. Jeffrey left the house?"
She had probably felt this question
coming, not only since the coroner
began to speak, but ever since the evil
dence elected from Loretta proved that
her visit to this drawer had been Sc
cretly observed Yet she had no an
swer ready.
II did not go for the pistol" she
finally declared. But she did not say
what she had gone for and the coroner
did not press her.
"You had another errand in that
room?"
She let her head droop just trifle.

CHAPTER XVI.


~ AEANWHILE, and before any
of us had left this room, one
fact had become apparent
Mr.. Jeffrey was not going to
volunteer any fresh statement in face
of the distinct disapproval Of his sister,
in-law. AS his eye fell upon the dis
trict attorney, who had fingered near,
possibly in the hope of getting some
thing more from this depressed and
almost insensible man, he made one re-
mark, but it was an automatic one,
calculated to produce but little effect
on the discriminating ears of this ex-
perienced official.
81 do not believe that my wife was
murdered" This was what he said.
at was n wicked verdict. My wife
killed herself. Wasn't the pistol found
tied to her?'
Meanwhile a fact which all had not
ed and commented on had required to
my mind and caused me to ask a
brother officer who was walking out
beside me what he thought of Mr..
Moorc's absence from an inquiry pre-
sumably of such Importance to all
members of his family.
The fellow laughed and said:
"Old Dave has lost none of his pecul-
iarities in walking into his fortune.
This is his day at the cemetery. Didn't
you know that? He will let nothing on
earth get in the way Of his pilgrimage
to that spot on the 23d of May, much
less so trivial an occurrence as an in
quest over the remains of his nearest
relative" ~
1 felt my gorge rise; then thought
struck me and asked how long the
old gentleman kept up his watch.
"From sunrise to shutdown, the boys
say. l never saw him there myself.
My beat lies in an opposite direction"
1 left him and started for Rock Creek
cemetery. There We're two good hours
yet before shutdown and resolved to
come upon Uncle David Mt his post.
1t took Just one hour and quartz,
to get there by the most direct route
could take, five minutes more to pen
citrate the grounds to where superb
vehicle stood, drawn by two of the
finest horses had seen in Washington
for many long day. AS was max

Simultaneously with her withdrawal
the CLEAN of sensibility left the faces
Of the Jury. and the dark and brooding
look which had marked their counte-
nances from the beginning returned,
and returned to stay.
The celebrity with which that jury ar
rived at its verdict was shock to us
all. 1t had been quiet body, Offering
but little assistance to the coroner in
his questioning, but when it fell to
these men to act, the precision with
which they did so was astonishing. In
half hour they returned from the
room into which they had adjourned,
and the foreman gave warming that lie
was prepared to render a verdict.
Mr.. Jeffrey and Miss Tuttle both
clinched their hands; then Miss futile
pulled down her veil.
I'VE tind," said the solemn foreman,
"tlat Veronica Moore Jeffrey, who on
the night of May II was discovered
lying dead on the floor Of her own UNI
occupied house in Waverley avenue,
came to her death by means of bullet,
SHOT from piston connected u Aef
wrist by a length of white satin rib
bon.
"That the FIRST conclusion of suicide
is not fully sustained by the facts.
"And that attempt should be made
to identify the hand that fired this pis.
toll"
1t was as near an accusation of Miss
futile as was possible without men
tioning her name. A groan passed
through the assemblage, and Mr.. JEFF,
frey, bounding to his feet, showed nj
inclination to shout aloud in his VIC
lent Indignation, but Miss futile, turn
ing toward him, lifted her hand with
a commanding gesture and held 1t SC
till he sat down again.
1t was both majestic and an utter
ly incomprehcnsible movement on her
part, giving to the close of these re.
markable proceedings dramatic eli
max which set all hearts beating and
am bound to say, all tongues wag'
cling till the room cleared.
