"she struck me as being an ugly customer, and when she left, about II o'clock. and went across to the Arm strong place, was not far behind her. She walked all around the house first, looking up at the windows. Then she rang the bell, and the minute the door was opened she was through it, and into the hall
 How long did she stay?"
 That's the queer part of it. Riggs said eagerly, She didn't come out that night at all I went to bed at daylight. and that was the last l heard of her until the next day, when saw her on a truck at the station, covered with a sheet. She'd been struck by the express and you would hardly have known her-dead, of course. think she stayed all night in the Armstrong houses and the agent said she was crossing the track to take the up-train to town when the express struck her

 Not so bad as that, Miss lnnes, Riggs said eagerly Nina Darlington came from the town in California where Mr Armstrong died. Why was the doctor so afraid of her? The Car rington woman knew something. l lived with Dr. Walker seven years. and l know him well. There are few things he is afraid of l think he killed MT. Armstrong out in the west some where, that's what I think What else he did l don't know-but he dismissed me and pretty nearly throttled me for telling Mir Jamieson here about Mir. lnnes' having been at his office the night he disappeared and about my hearing them quarreling.'
 What was it Warner overheard the woman say to MT. Innes in the H. brary?' the detective asked me.
 She said I knew there was some thing wrong from the start. A man isn't well one day and dead the next without some reason

 Ills recovery was destined to be al- most as sudden as his disappearance, ana was due directly to the tramp Alex had brought to Sunnyside.

 The pernicious habit of allowing a baby to have pacifier or his thumb to suck cannot be too severely con demned. A child has both sets of teeth in the mouth at birth and any undue pressure on the gums as con- gtant as this habit, is sure to throw them up and out making the ugly pro ieeting teeth. This Is not the worst result either of the habit. for mouth breathing and adenoids are often tho outcome. It is necessary to have these adenoids removed by the knife
