By ANNA KATHARINE GREEN

The clergyman had not yet descend
ed, and Sweetwater had time to OBJ
serve the row Of little girls sitting In
front Of the bearers, each with a small
cluster of white flowers in her hand
Miss ~Cumberland's Sunday school
class, he co~n5ectured, and conJectured
rightly. He also perceived that some
of these children loved her. His eyes
dwelt Iingertngly on these before pass
ing to that heaped up mound Of flow
ers under which lay q murdered body
and a bruised heart. he could not see
the face, but the spectacle was sufh-
ciently awe compelling without that.
Would 1t have seemed yet more SO had
he known at whose request the huge
bunch of lilies had been placed over
that silent hearth
The sister sick, the brother invlsi-
BILE, there was little more to hold his
attention in this quarter, so he let 1t
roam across the heads OF the people
about him to the distant hall commu-
nicating with the kitchen.
Several persons were approaching
from this direction, among them Ia
dok-the servants Of the house, no
doubt, for they came in all together
and sat down side by side In the
chairs Sweetwater had 30 carefully
passed by. There were five persons
In all-two men and three women.
Only two interested him-Zadok, with
whom he had already made a super
fetal acquaintance and had had one
bout, and a smart, bright eyed girl
with q resolute mouth softened by an
insistent dimple, who struck him as
possessing excellent sense and some
natural cleverness. A girl to know
and a girl to talk to was his instan-
taneous Judgment.
During the services Sweetwater
found himself watching, with an1-
ious curiosity, the attitude and alb
sorbed expression of a good looking
young man whom he WAS far from
suspecting to be the secret representa-
tive of the present suspect, whom no.
body could forget, yet whom nobody
wished to remember at this hallowed
hour.
Had this attitude and this absorb
ton been directed toward the casket
over which the olergyman's words
rose and fell with ever increasing I'M
p~ressiveness he might have noted the
man, but would scarcely have been
held by him. But this interest, sin
+ cere and strong as it undoubtedly was,
centered not so much in. the services,
careful as he was to maintain a de-
coroHs attitude toward the same, but
N the faint murmurs which now and
then came down from above, where
Inconsistencies reigned and the
stricken brother watched over the de-
lirious sister with a concentration
aud abandonment to fear which made
him oblivious Of all other duties and

had been as a mother to him as the

wife Oh the highroad. Then with an
eager Nov let me show you some
thing he led the coroner through the
dining room into the side hall, where
he paused before the staircase.
"upf" queried the coroner, with an
obvious shrinking from what he might
encounter above.
"No," was the whispered reply.
"what we want Is here" And, push
ing open a small door let into the un-
der part of the stairway, be disclosed
q closet and in that closet a coat or
two and one derby hat. He took down
the latter and, holding it out to the
light, pointed to a spot on the under
side of its brtm.
The coroner staggered as he saw 1T
and glanced helplessly about him. he
had known this family all their lives,
and the father had been his dearest
friend. But he could say nothing in
face of this evidence. The spot was
a -four mark, in which could almost
be discerned the outline Of a woman's
thumb.

detective, watching this ~preoccuried
stranger, shared ID some measure hts
secret emotions and thus was pre-
pered for The unexpected occurrence
Of a few minutes later.
The final words had been said and
the friends present Invited to look
their last on the calm face Which to
many there had never worn SO sweet
a smile In life. Some had hesitated,
bat most had obeyed the sumnors,
among them Sweetwater. But be had
not much time In which to fix those
features In bis mind, for the little
girls, who had been waiting patiently
for this moment, now came forward,
and he stepped aside to watch them
as they fled by, dropping as they Old
so a tribute OF fragrant flowers Upon
the quiet breast. They were followed
by the servants, among whom Zadok
had divided his roses. As the last

Suddenly there was a cry, and the
crowd about the door leading into the
main hall started back as wild steps

man rushed into the room.

1t is perhaps worth recalling that
the art of baking loaves anne to
Europe quite late in history. Flat
cakes were baked even in the earliest
times, but as late as the beginning of
the nineteenth century, loaf bread
was comparatively unknown in many
parts of the continent. In 1912, for
instance, when an English captain or
dered loaves to the value of Ell in
Gothenburg, the baker stipulated for
payment in advance, on the ground
that he would never be able TO sell
them in the city if they were left on
his hands.-London Chronicle.
