Why did both she and DIR. Walke
warn us away from the house?
Who was Lucien Wallace?
What did Thomas see in the shadows
the night he died?
What was the meaning OF the subtle
change in Gertrude?
Was Jack Bailey ar accomplice or a
victim in the footing of the Traders
bank?
What all-powerful reason made Louise
determine to marry DIR. Walker?
The examiners were still working
on the books of the Traders bank, and
it was probable that several weeks
would elapse before everything vas
cleared up. The firm of expert ac-
countants who had examined the books
some two months before testified that
every bond, every piece of valuable
paper, was there at that time. 1t
had been shortly after their examina-
ton that the president, who had been
in bad health, had gone to California.
Mr.. Bailey was still i'll at the Knicker-
booker, and in this, as in other ways,
G~ertrude's conduct puzzled me. She
seemed indifferent, refused to discuss
matters pertaining to the bank, and
never, to my knowledge, either wrote
to him or went to see him. Gradual
ly / came to the conclusion that Ger
trude, with the rest of the world, be-
lieved her lover guilty. and-although
| believed it myself. for that matter
/ was irritated by her indifference.
Girls in my day lid no. r,aeF'- accept
the public's verdict as to the man
they loved.
But presently something occurred
that made me think that under Ger
trude's surface calm there was a seeth-
ing flood of emotions.
Tuesday morning the detective
made a careful search of the grounds,
but he found nothing. In the after
noon he disappeared. and it was late
that night when he came home. He
said he would have to go back to the
city the following day, and arranged
with Halsey and Alex to guard the
house.
Liddy came to me on Wednesday

BUILDING GOOD DAIRY HOUSE
Detailed Directions for Constructing
Suitable Structure Over Spring
on Hillside.

By J.. G. WEATHERSON0
A fine dairy house may be built
over a spring. You know about wha,
size room will be required for your
work. Build the spring house with
the end against the hillside and ar
range it SO the overflow stream from
the spring will run along one side
leaving just room enough to walk be
tween the water and wall. Have
space enough on the other side of the
room for a work bench and shelves
also a walk.
II convenient make a cement floor
If not pave the floor and also the bot
tom and edges of the stream closely
with large fiat stones. Put boards
over the stone floor to walk and stand
on.
Construct a drain pipe to carry the
water for some distance after it leaves
the interior of the house SO the an
proach will not be damp. Have nc
board foundations that will rot OF
mold. Everything about the dairy
house must be clean and sweet. Have
plenty of light on the side where your
work bench is.
II you have good ventilation a gas
cline stove for heating water to wash
the utensils would be practicable az
it would make little heat. II you
must use a coal or wood stove the
room for it should be above the spring
house, not in 1t.
In placing the stones on the bed Of
the stream prop them carefully sc
they will be perfectly Nat so tbs pans
or crooks may be set upon them II
