Mrs. Atwell was enjoying an after
dinner nap when the door bell rang
vigorously. Mrs. Atwell responded In
wrapper and slippers, her eyes still heavy
with slumber.
A broad-shouldered. square-tawed
woman confronted her on the door

"Are you Mrs. Atweil?" asked the
formidable visitor, advancing into the
hallway

said the unknown, striding up TO Mrs
Atwell and dropping heavy hand on
her shoulder.
"Me-go-w -with-you." gasped the start
led woman. "why, what on earth

There. There, Thatil do" interrupted

Terror and amazement held Mrs. At

proceeded straight to the point 4

daffy. and I've got TO take you TO the

A howl OF terror was the Victims only
answer.

Mrs. Atwell TO be sane and Mr.. AtweN a

The puzzle was not solved until At
wells return from White Plains The
commitment papers were intended for a
demented colored woman found wander
