Ransom sank into a seat; Hazen

Mr.. Ransom, I condole with you upon
your loss. My sister was a woman OF
uncommon gifts"
Mr.. Ransom bowed. He had no
words for this man at moment OF
such extreme excitement. He did not
even note the latent sting hidden in
the others seeming tribute to
Georgian. But the lawyer did and
Hazen perceived that he did, for paus-

lawyer.
A shadow darkened the disappoint-

turned them upon Ransom.
Instantly that gentleman spoke.
"I have received but moiety," said
he You need not envy me the

"Who has it then?" briskly demand

She?"
Mr.. Harper never knew why he did
1t. He was reserved as a man and,
usually, more than reserved as a law

from the table and turned to leave,
he quietly remarked:

RETURN FROM GALVESTON
Mr.. and Mrs. r. w. Perry
Return Thursday From
Extended Southern Trip.

Mr.. and Mrs. r. w. Perry, who re-
ride on Second Ave. returned Thurs
day afternoon from their southern
trip. They left one month ago for Hot
Springs, Arkansas, and found the tourist
rush somewhat on the wane. The East
ern, one of the larger hotels in the re-
Sort will close for the season on April

probably follow suit soon after. The
heat was excessive at Hot Springs dur

being harvested. The cost of most
food stuffs Mr.. and Mrs. Perry found
slightly higher than at home, butter is

while fruit and vegetables are much
cheaper. They report Galveston, where
they spent a fortnight, beautiful city
with fine residence districts. Tropical
flowers are profuse, Wisteria vines
often cover trunks of trees and the
flowers hang down from the branches.
The travellers, who had planned to visit
Arizona before their return, decided to-
omit this part of the trip because of the
heat, which was becoming more disa-
greeable every day.

CHAPTER xxi.
A Suspicious Test.

let him make his experiment
IL It will do no harm, aud if it
gliYSNI rids us of him, well and
G good"
Such was Mr.. Harper's decision
after hearing all that Mr.. Ransom
had to tell him of the present situa-
ton. Ransom expressed his satisfac-
ton, and left the room with lighter
heart than he had felt since Hazen
came upon the scene. He did not
know that all he mad been through
was as nothing to what lay before
him.
1t was an hour before he returned.
When he did, it was to find HaZen
and the lawyer awaiting him in ill
concealed impatience.
Have you done it?" exclaimed Haz-
en-, leaping eagerly to his feet as the
door closed softly behind Ransom.
81 couldn't get hold Of Mrs. Dec any
sooner" replied Ransom. "Anitra is
having her hair brushed, or something
else of equal Importance done for her
in one Of the rear rooms. So we can
proceed fea r1essly. Have you looked
to see If yt"1 can get good glimpse
of her door <hrough the keyhole OF
this one?"
Haven't you already made trial
of that? Then do so now" suggested
Hazen, drawing out the key and lay
ing it on the table.
R11t this was too uncOngenial a task
for Ransom.
81 shall be satisfied" said he, "if
Mr.. Harper tells me that it can"

"very well Here is the chalk"
falling on his knees and adjusting his
eve to the keyhole. "Or rather, you
can see plainly the face of any one
approaching it. I don't suppose any
of US expected to see the door itself"

an entering the door, we want to see.

Ransom thought a minute. then

with che quick twist produced the
following:

Correct" muttered Hazen, with
what Harper thought to be a slight
but unmistakable shudder. "One would
think you had been making use OF
this very cabalistic sign all your life"
"Then one would be mistaken. l
have simply a true eye and a ready
hand"
"And a very remarkable memory.
You have recalled every little line and
quirk."
That's possible. What have made
once I can make the second time. It's
! regularity of mine"
There was no mistaking the con-
tinued intensity Of Hazen's gaze. Ran
som felt his color rise, but succeeded
in preserving his quiet tone, as he
added:
Besides, this character is not a
wholly new one to me. My attention
was called to it months ago. 1t was
when l was counting Georgian. She
was writing note one day when she
suddenly stopped to think and I saw
her pen making some marks which
considered curious. But / should not
have remembered them five minutes,
If she had not impulsively laid her
hand over them when she saw me
looking. That fixed the memory of
them in my mind, and when l saw

membered it. That is why lent N.Y.

of lines was true"
Hazen's hand stole up to his neck,
a token Of agitation which Ransom
should have recognized by this time
"And her account of the use We
made of it tailed with mine?"
"She gave me no account of any
use she had ever made of it."
THAT was because you didn't ask
her."
Gust so. Why should l ask her?
It was a small matter to trouble her
about"
"You are right" acquiesced Hazen,
wheeling himself away towards the
window. Then after a mOmentary
silence, 1T was SO then, but 1t is
likely to prove of some Importance
now. Let me see if the hall is empty"
AS he bent to open the door, the
lawyer, who had not moved nor spok-
en- till now, turned quick glance on
Ransom and impulsively stretched out
his hand. But he dropped it very
quickly and subsidized into his old at
titude of simple watchfulness, as Haz-
en- glanced back with the remark:
There's nobody stirring; now's
your time, Ransom"
The moment for action had arrived.
Ransom stepped into the hall. AS
he passed Kazen, the latter whisper
ed:
Don't forget that last downward
ouirk. That was the line she always
emphasized"
Ransom gave him an annoyed look.
His nerves as well as his feelings were
on a keen stretch, and this persistence
of Hazens was more than he could
bear.
"Ill not forget the least detail" he
answered shortly, and passed quickly
down the hall, while Hazen watched
him through the crack of the door,
and the lawyer watched Hazen.
Suddenly Mr.. Harper's brow Wrink-
led. Hazen had uttered such sigh OF
relief that the lawyer was startled.
In another moment Ransom re-enter-
ed the room.

The door Ransom had carefully
closed. Harper watched through the
keyhole. The remaining two stood at
his side breathless, waiting Tor MS
first word. 1t came in whisper:
She's approaching her room. she
looks tired. Her eyes are stealing
this way;-no, they are resting on
her own door. She sees the sign. She
stands staring at it, but not like a
person who has ever seen it before.
It's the stare of an uneducated Wom-

not understand. Now she touches IL

BY the time this reaches you it will
be time to be thinking Of your incu-
bator. Get the best. None of them
are too good. IT is said that all large
machines are hot air and the small
ones are hot-water. For my own
part, | would not use hot water. True,
the changes in them are not quite so
sudden, and If you let the lamp go
out they will hold the heat longer.
Well if your regulator in any way Will
not control the changes, and If you are
going to allow the lamp to go out, do
not go into the incubator business at
all.
Since chick i'm April is worth two
in June, you can see that if you hatch
and raise one-fourth of the eggs you
set you are still ahead, and the early
fall pullets OF these early matches
bring in the shekels in the fall monlt-
ing season, but care and experience
will do better than this. The earlier
you get the experience the better OF
course. the instructions with the ma
chine will guide you. Reject, howev-
er, all the turning devices which the
maker has attached to make il sell.
Disturb the eggs as often as the hen
does and air frequently. Do not be
afraid Of cooling. Have at least two
thermometers, and see that there are
no cool places above your trays. The
heat must be applied from above
and must be measured just at the
upper edge of the eggs. If possible
for this reason have your eggs as
nearly all of a size as possible. Have
your thermometers hung always at
the same place. If you place them
on the eggs one may be lower than
the other and you will have a differ
ent average heat every time you turn.
Be sure that one thermometer is cas-
lily readable from the glass door. A
model incubator heats alike at all
points, but few are model Hence
the need Of two or more thermome-
tiers TO make an average. With this
