OF greatest activity. With the various
bridges connecting the residence por.

a nearer one, OF which the demands OF
this story necessitate clear presenta-

This bridge was called Long. and
spanned the ravine and its shallow
stream OF water not a quarter OF Il
mile below the short road or lane we
have just seen Judge Ostrander enter.
Between II and this lane, narrow path
ran amid the trees and bushes bor-

a short cut 10 a certain part OF the
town mostly given over to factories.

CHAPTER ~.

IL was ten O'CLOCK, not later, when
the Judge re-entered his front door. He
was alone-absolutely alone. as he had
never been since that night OF long
ago, when with the inner fence com

And now this faithful friend was
dead, and it was he who must bear IL

He sought for no answer, nor did he
allow himself to dwell for one minute
on the thought. There was something

Taking down his hat from the rack.
he turned and went out again, this
time carefully locking the door behind
him, also the first gate. But he
stopped TO listen before lifting his
hand 10 the second one.
A sound of steady breathing. accom-
panied by few impatient movements
came from the other side. A man was
posted there within a foot of the gate

made his way around 10 the other set

.RELISHES FOR SPRING
TEMPTING MENU NEEDED AT
THIS SEASON.
Condiments Liked In the Winter Have
Lost Their Savor and Others
Must Be Provided to Take
Their Places.

Springtime appetites should be as
fresh and unspoiled as is the spring
itself. But too often the spring appe-
tite is dulled and II is only by dint
OF constant care the housekeeper or
cook is able TO provide tempting
diet on the spring table.
Winter fare pals at this season
And the usual winter condiments and
anpetizers fail 10 work successfully.
Mustard pickles. chowchow, cole slaw,
olives-all have lost their winter trick
OF whetting the appetite. Celery has
literally lost most OF its crispness and
sweetness by spring. New appetizcrs
and relishes must be relied on TO give
point 10 the daily diet.
Cucumbers are one reliable spring
relish. There is. OF course. much ob.
lection To cucumbers on the ground
of indigestibility. They are usually
indigestlble-that nobody can deny.
But some people do not find them so.
and eat them without fear. So II
they are not taboo on your table,
make use of them. II is n good plan
TO slice them thinly and place them
in iced water In the refrigerator for
an hour before using them. Then
dress them with oil and vinegar and
serve them with fish. Or dice them
and mix them with diced green pep.
per and celery. with mayonnaise, in
cups OF lettuce leaves as n salad.
Tomatoes. too, can be made To serve
admirably the purpose of whetting
the appetite. A very good appetizer
with which 10 begin dinner IL "A round

accompaniment. They may be served
with fish or with the meat course
And OF course all sorts OF tomato
salads are delicious In spring. And a

and serve with other vegetables on

Sweet green peppers are az useful
In warm weather as I'm cold. Chop
them and mix with an equal amount
OF celery, chopped fine. and molsten

on a lettuce leaf for salad. or serve
a spoonful on slice OF thin. crisp

which sent 1t south and east again
toward the lower town. A high bluf
rose at this point, which made the far
ther side of the ravine much more i'm
posing than the one on the near side
where the slope was gradual.
This path. and even the bridge Itself
were almost wholly unlighted. They
were seldom used at night--seldom
used at any time. But II was by this
route the Judge elected TO go into
town; not for the pleasure OF the walk
as was very apparent from the ex
treme depression OF his manner but
from some inward necessity which
drove him on. against his wishes, pos
sibly against his secret misgivings.

Many years had passed since Judge
Ostrander had played the host; but he

IL was for him TO shoot the bolts and
lift the bars; but he went about 1t so
clumsily and with such evident aver
sion TO the task that the sergeant in
stinctively sprang TO help him.

remarked the judge, turning with O sad
smile as he finally pulled the door
