MADE AN UNEXPECTED HIT
Mark Sheridan, With an Act Not on
the Bill. convuIsed an English
Audience.

One often has amusing experiences,
the humor of which only strikes one
afterward. Such a one occurred to me
number of years ago, at very small
hall In the provinces. where the stage
accommodation was so limited and OF
such primitive kind that some of us
had to use the back of the stage as
dressing room, our ablutions after the
show being sometimes performed in a
common or garden bucket placed on a
chair. One night-it was winter, and
the audience was almost as chilly as
the weather. had finished my turn,
and stripped to the waist, was "ablut
ing" violently in the old tin basin,
when somebody made a mistake, and
instead of lowering the curtain, the
back sheet was pulled up, disclosing
me to view.

way, which was perfectly incompre-
hensible. man of his ability would
not have left broad trail across the
center of his lawn for all to see.
There was, moreover, no trace of him
that our men could ferret out at any
station within reasonable distance. A
motor was possible. but there were no
marks Of its presence next morning
In the slush Of the roads. That fact
learnt from curious groom who
had aided in the search, and who.
with a similar idea upon him. had
carefully examined the highway at
daybreak.
When l clambered to the top of
the wall found that the snow upon
the coping had been dislodged. /
traced the marks, as you saw, for
about dozen yards. Where they end
ed l, too, dropped to the ground out
side. There | made a remarkable
discovery. Upon little drift OF snow
that lay in the shallow ditch beneath
were more footprints. But they were
not those of Ford. They were the
marks Of long and narrow boots, and
led into the road. where they were
lost in the track of a flock of sheep
that had been driven over 1t the day
before
II took a careful measurement Of
those footprints. They might, OF
course, belong to some private inves-
tigator; but they gave me an idea.
Could some man have walked across
the lawn in Ford's boots, changed
them to his own on the top of the
wall, and so departed? Was 1t the
desire of some one to let 1t be sup
posed that Ford had run away?
when / examined Ford's private
rooms l was even more fortunate.
From the bootboy l discovered that
the master had three pairs of shoot
ing-boots. There were three pairs in
the stand. Some one had made a
very serious mistake. Instead of hid
ing the pair he had used on the lawn,
he had returned them to their place.

You've caught my clever friend,
see. Kindly go through his pockets,
will you? He has something must
ask him to return to me-"
We found 1t in Jackson's pocket
book-a cheque. antedated a week, for
five thousand pounds, with a covering
letter to the manager of the bank.
Ford took the bit of stamped paper,
twisting it to and fro in his supple
fingers.
1T was smart of you, Jackson" he
said. addressing the bowed figure be-
fore him. Il give you credit for the
Idea. To kidnap man Just as he was
bringing off big deal-well, you
would have earned the money"
But how did you get down here?''
struck in the manager.
He told me that he had discovered
an old hiding-place-a priests hole
he cp'led 1t, and l walked into the
trap as the best man may do some
times. AS we got to the bottom of
that stairway he slipped a sack over
my head. and had me fixed in thirty
seconds. He fed me himself twice a
day, standing by to see didn't holloa.
When l paid up he was to have twen-
ty-four hours start; then he would

| The trick was becoming evident. But
where was Ford? In the house or
grounds, dead or alive. but where?
Il was able. through my friend the
bootboy, to examine the boots on the
night Of our arrival. My measure
ments corresponded with those that
Jackson, the valet, wore. Was he
acting for himself. or was Harbord.
or even Ransom. in the secret? That,
too, 1t was necessary to discover be-
fore showed my hand.
Your story Of Harbord's midnight
excursion supplied clue. The sec
retary had evidently followed some
man who had disappeared mysterious
ly. Could there be the entrance to a
secret chamber In that corridor? That
would explain the mystifcation of
Harbord as well as the disappearance
Of Silas Ford. II SO Harbord was not

CHICKENS FOR A FARM
American Breeds Meet Demand
for General Purpose Fowl.
5est Recommendation for Plymouth
Rock Is Excellent Growth Of
Chicks, In Which Quality They
Are Without Superior.
(By e. o. ERF.)

The American breeds of chickens
have been made by the mixing of GER
tain types. They have been formed to
pose fowl and they fulfill this demand
better than any other breed.
These breeds are more variable in
traits than breeds with more years Of
uniform ancestry to their credit. If
strict selection is not maintained the
American varieties are inclined to
vary and revert to ancestral types.
The barred variety of the Plymouth
Rocks is the original Plymouth Rock,
