Aoorea Island, the HappieSt and

Hugo Parton, writing in the Outing
Magazine, says that the happlest and
most beautiful spot on earth .o-dly is
the island of Moorea, one of the Society
Islands, in the south seas. As a con.
trast to strenuous American methods
this description sounds alluring:

Poetry Defined.

George p. Morris, the author Of
"Woodman, Spare That Tree" was a
general Of the New York militia and a
favorite with all who knew him. Mrs.
Sherwood In her "reminiscences tells
how another poet associated the general
with a definition of poetry.
Once Fitz-Greene Halleck, the author
Of "Marco Bozzarls," called upon her in
New York in his old age, and she asked
him to define for her what was poetry
and what was prose.
He replied: when Gen. Morris COM
mands his brigade and says, Soldiers,
draw your swords" he talks prose.
When he says, Soldiers, draw your
willing swords! he talks poetry"

CHAPTER XVIII.

-
This event gave me no little anxiety
at first, but it wore off when l came to
consider it calmly. l could not believe
in the mans statement respecting a GRIM
inal charge in reserve. 1t was not likely
he would keep back the stronger induce
ment in leading to compromise. As for
his witness to prove that Awdrey had
been instrumental to my delay, that was
nothing; he could get as many witnesses
of that kind as he chose at a pound a
head. No; it seemed to me nothing but
a mere attempt at extortion, got up,
probably, by Yeames, his mother and
Bax, who thought, very likely, that l
should be rascal enough to stand in with
them.
/ fattered myself that l had shown
Bax the folly of his proceedings" and
that | should neither see nor hear any
more of him or his criminal charges. And
this belief was strengthened when two
days later Lynn Yeames appeared in
Coneyford, and his mother returned to her
cottage.
He went the very morning of his ar
rival to DR.. Awdrey, and in the after
noon l saw them going along the High
Street together, Lynn with his arm linked
in Awdrey's. They were going towards
the farm to see about some alterations
and improvements that had occurred to
the doctor in the others absence. l felt
sure then that the intimidation scheme
was abandoned.
h. Nothing occurred for several days; but
on Friday, the Goth of March, Miss Dal-
rymple called upon me. She was as pale
as a ghost. Her hand trembled in mine.
"Oh, Mr.. Keene ~ she exclaimed, what
Is the meaning of these rumorsW
"Sit down, my dear" said l, guessing
what she meant. "Sit down; now tell me
what it is you have heard"

you from arriving at the house in time for
Mr.. Flexmore to sign his will. A man
has confessed to being employed by him."

ment.

plate to which Is secured the piece OF
rope or twine. The plate is laid on
the center Of the bundle and the twine
carried twice around. On the second
turn it Is caught on small hook In
the plate and then carried around the
opposite end Of the bundle, the end of
the twine being inserted in v-shaped
extension on the plate. In the free end
Of the twine are number of knots
equal distances apart. These knots are
pulled through the plate to firmly bind
the bundle, the peculiar shape of exten-
sion preventing them from slipping
through after the twine has been re-
leased. The inventor claims that this
can be manufactured cheaply, render.
ing its use practical.

CHAPTER XIX.

The examination resulted in this !:
Whether accidentally or otherwise,
enough of noxious substance had found
its way into Flexmore's body to have de-
cidedly accelerated his death. The news
spread like a plague; within twenty-four
hours every one had it, man, woman and
child, without distinction of rank or sta
ton. Every one went about open-mouth-
ed to find someone to give the news to. A
dozen persons said to me:
Have you heard the result of the ex-
animation? DR.. Awdrey did hasten Flex-
more's end"
Then why is he at larger asked.
why has no warrant for his arrest been
lssued?"
They could only shrug their shoulders :;
but could explain the matter to them
Flexmore had not been affected by the
poison at ALL The arsenic was found in
his mouth, it had not touched the diges-
tive apparatus, and for this reason: 1t
had been administered after the life had
left his body. This was the report made
by the authorized doctors who made the
examination.
Upon this report no one could be ac-
cused of any crime legally, nor at the
present juncture could charge be insti-
;uted. That the poison had not been
given in the form of potion, such as
Miss Dalrymple had been charged by DIR.
Awdrey to administer, was clear from the
fact that it was found in the form of
powder, and must have been dropped in
my old friends mouth when his jaw drop
ped after death. Still, it had clearly been
given with view to prevent any posi-
bility of return to life and it was equal
ly evident to the majority of people that
Awdrey, who knew the contents of the
viii to be signed, alone was presumably
desirous Of preventing a return to life,
for only very small minority knew that
Lynn Yeames also had strong reason for
making death sure at that time.
Now, though there was no evidence to
commit Awdrey, circumstances were suffi-
ciently suspicious to enable the Yeames
party to contest the will. But had still

as could:

And pray what charge Is that Mr..
Bax" l asked with pretended indiffer-
ence.
"A criminal charge We reserve ire
spect for Mr.. Lynn Yeames' feelings
Here's the fact-we can throw will into
chancery, and ruin DR.. Awdrey, if we
make facts public. Lynn Yeames does

right to money-give 1t up to Lynn, who
has. Loses nothing-avoid scandal

Have you anything more to add to
this proposition?" asked.
Nothing except this-stay proceedings
for a week-time for you to arrange with
Awdrey, and give us decision. One week
from to-day-you understand"
Perfectly well; there is no necessity
to keep you waiting a week for a decis-
ION; you shall have it at once. On behalf
of my client and myself, l refuse to have

anger, that if you could prove your Grim
inal charge against DR.. Awdrey, am the
last person in the world who would COM

take measures to punish the man who did.
Get out of my house!'
He got up on his little legs, gasping
and stammering, dropped his gloves out
of his hat, got purple in the face in
picking them up, gasped and stammered
again; but quickly made his way through
the open door with his small blue eyes in
the corner, for all the world like a pig

Because l thought it merely a scheme
to extort money. A man named Bax
spoke about it. He tells me be is a friend
Of the Yeames family"
| He went of at once to find Lynn. And
not long afterwards l caught sight Of the
pair in the High street, Lynn with his
arm linked through the doctors, and 4
look on his face that seemed to bid peo-
pie observe that he still believed in Aw-
drey's innocence. While l was looking
after them, a colleague clapped me on the
shoulder, and said in a low voice, nod
ding toward the two:
Which is the Judas?"
There can be no doubt about that"
l replied, unless Judas be too good a
name for Lynn Yeames."
II am not so sure about that, Keene
| don't like Awdrey's quiet, long-suffering,
martyrish manner. He's a clever man
ten times cleverer than Yeames-clever
enough to make big venture. II l had
to judge without evidence, l should &C
quit Yeames and hang Awdrey. And
believe il you could only clear your mind
of prejudice"
l would not wait to hear more OF such
fustian. l had no patience. In due
course | made formal application for
the post-mortem examination of Fle1-
more's remains. To my astonishment l
learned that the inquiry had been already
demanded and accorded; the examination
was to be made at once.
Lynn assures me, and | believe him."
said DR.. Awdrey when we next met, that
he has been opposed to his mothers ac-
tion from the very beginning. He could
not with any delicacy tell me of her pro-
ceedings. He himself insisted on Bax
quitting his mothers house."
