CHAPTER V.-Continued.
Does that brighten you? Are you
SO affected by the thought of blood?"
Don't ask me. And put the thing
under my pillow! l thought it was so
so pretty"
Mrs. Watkins" Mr.. Gryce from
that moment ignored the daughter,
did you see it there?"
yes; but l didn't know where it
came from. had not seen my daugh-
ter stoop. l didn't know where she
got it till | read that bulletin"
Never mind that. The question
agitating me is whether any stain was
left under shat pillow"
Il didn't see any stain, but you can
look for yourself. The bed has been
made up, but there was no change of
linen. We expected to remain here;
L see no good to be gained by hiding
any of the facts now"
None whatever, madam"
Come, then, Caroline, sit down
Sand stop crying. Mr.. Gryce believes
that your only fault was in not taking
this object at once to the desk"
Yes, that's ALL" acquiesced the de-
tective after short study of the shak-
Ing figure and distorted features OF
the girl. you had no idea, I'm sure,
where this weapon came from or for
what it mad been used. That's evi.
dent"
Her shudder, as she seated herself,
was very convincing She was too
young to simulate SO successfully emo
tons of this character.
I'm glad of that" she responded,
half fretfully, half gratefully, as Mr..
Gryce followed her mother into the
adjoining room. I've had a bad
enough time of it without being
blamed for what I didn't know and
didn't do"
Mr.. Gryce laid little stress upon
these words, but much upon the lack
of curiosity she showed in the min
ute and careful examination he now
rmade of her room. There was no
stain on the pillow-cover and none on
the bureau-spread where she might
very naturally have laid the cutter
down on first coming into her room.
The blade was so polished that it
must have been rubbed off some
where, either purposely or by acct
dent.
They returned to where the girl still
sat, wrapped in her cloak. sobbing
still, but not SO violently.
'Will-will he tell?" she whispered.
The answer came quickly, but not
in the mothers tones. Mr.. Gryce's
ears had lost none of their ancient
acuteness.
4 do not see that should gain
much by doing SO. The one discov-
cry which would link this find of yours
indissolubly with Miss Challoner's
death. l have failed to make. Do you
remember the exact spot where you
stopped, Miss Watkins?"
No, no. Somewhere near those big
chairs; ! didn't have to step out of
my way; | really didn't"
Mr.. Gryce's answering smile was
study. 1t seemed to convey a two-fold
message, one for the mother and one
for the child, and both were comfort
ing. But he went away, disappointed.
The clue which promised so much
was. to all appearance, false one.
He could soon tell

WE SHOULD CARE
FOR GOOD HEALTH

An exchange in commenting on
the way Of mankind in taking
care Of their health, says: "The
simplest and the plainest laws Of
health are outraged every hour
of the day by the average man.
Did Adam smoke? Did Eve wear
~corsets? Did Solomon chew gum?
Did the children Of Isreal go d.
rectly to a beer garden after eros
sing the Red Sea? Did Rebecca
eat gum drops and ice cream
and call for soda water? Adam
was the first man and was made
perfect from head to heel. How
long would he remain SO after
eating a mince pie before going
to bed? Suppose he slept in a
SKI bed room with the doors shut
and the windows down7 Suppose
Eve had laced herself up in a
corset, put on tight shoes, sat
up all hours Of the night eating
her fill Of trash and sizzled! her
hair. When you come to look at
the way a man misbehaves him
self you can wonder he ever lived
to get here.
