CHAPTER VI.
THE ONE WHO CREPT IN THE
PRINATE STAIRCASE

The odd. mOurnful crying lost it
self in the restless lament OF the
wind. The thicket from which il had
seemed to issue assumed in the pal
lid moonlight new unfriendliness.
Instinctively the six men moved
closer together. The coroner's thin
tones expressed his alarm:
What the devil was that? I don't
really believe there could be a wom-
an around here"
"A queer one" the detective
grunted.
The district attorney questioned
Bobby and Graham.
That's the voice you heard from
the house >"
Graham nodded.
Perhaps not SO far away"

the first now TO reach for a rational
explanation of this new phase
we mustn't let our fancies run
away with us The coroner's right
for once. No excuse for a woman
hiding in that thicket. A bird. may
be. or some animal

The detective reasoned in a steady
unmoved voice. only "A mad wom

Here's where he left the path
right enough" he said. 'cAnd our
foreigner wasn't making any more
noise than he had to-"
He flashed his lamp on a fresh
footprint in the soft soil at the side
Of the path. The mark Of the toe
was deep and firm. The impression
of the heel was very light. Paroles,
it was clear. had walked from the
house on tiptos.
Follow on" Robinson command
ed. L told this fellow wanted to
question him. I've scared him off"
Keeping his light on the ground,
Rawlins led the wey across the
clearing. The trail was simple
enough To follow Each Of the
Panamanian's footprints was dis
tinct. Each had that popularity that
suggested the stealth of his prog
ress
As they continued Bobby respond
ed TO an excited premonition. He
sensed the destination Of the chase.
He could picture Paroles now IN the
lOneliest portion of the woods. for
the trail unquestionabIy pointed TO
the path he had taken that after
noon toward the stagnant lake.
Hartley" he said. "Paredes left
the house to go to the stagnant lake
where I fancied / saw a woman in
black. Do you see? And he didn't
hear the crying OF a woman a little
while ago. and when we told him he
became restless. He wandered about
the hall talking of ghosts"
"A rendezvous" Graham answer
ed. HE may have been waiting for
just that. The crying may have been
signal. Perhaps yOuU believe now,
Bobby, that the man has had an
undetermined purpose in staying
here"
i've made too many hasty iudg-
ments in my life. Hartley. III go
slow on this. I'll wait until we see
what we find at the lake"
Rawlins snapped off his light.
The little party paused at the black
entrance of the path into the thicket
He's buried himself IN the
woods" ,Rawlins said.
They crowded instinctively closer
/ in the sudden darkness. A brisk
! wind had sprung up. It ratified
among the trees, and set the dead
| leaves in gentle. rustling motion. 1t
suggested TO Bobby the picture which
| had been forced into his brain the
/ night of his grandfather's death.
The moon now possessed less light,
but il reminded him again OF a
! drowning face, and through the
/ darkness he could fancy the trees
! straining in the wind like puny men.
! Abruptly the thought of penetrat-
! ing the forest became frightening.
The silent loneliness of the sta gnant
lake seemed as unfriendIy and
threatening as the melancholy of
the old room.
There are too many of u.s." Rob
inson was saying. You'd better go
on alone. Rawlins. and don't take
any chances. I've got TO have this
man. You understand? l think he
knows things worth while"
The rising wind laughed at his
whisper. The detective flashed his
lamp once, shut il off again, and
stepped into the close embrace OF
the thicket
Suddenly Bobby grasped era
hams arm. The little group became
| tense, breathless. For across the
/ wind with "A difrused quality, a lack
| Of direction. vibrated 10 them again
/ the faint and mournful grief of a
| woman.

DOUBLE BARRED CROSS
ADOPTED II YEARS AGO

The double barred Red Cross Is
seventeen years old this month. In
October, 1902, the International Anti
Tuberculosis Association, then meeting
In Berlin, adopted the cross as the
emblem Of the worldwide fight against
tuberculosis. 1t was proposed by DIR.
G. Serslron, of Paris. 1t Is a COM
blnatiOn Of the Crolx de Lorraine and
the cross OF the Greek Catholic
church. Both crosses are symbolic Of
charity and help to humanity. Their
combined features were selected and
adopted as the symbol of the hope Of
civilization. -Four years later, In 1900,
the double barred lied Cross was car
ried into this couatry.. II was In 1909,

FIRST SALE YIELDED $4,000
National tuberculosis Association,
= Which Sponsors Sale. viii Place
$4,000, 900 Seals on Sale to
! Finance the Flight Against
tuberculosis.

The Red Cross Seal-as millions OF
Americans know 1t to day. Is an agent
bf happiness and health. 1t was orig
mated in 1907 by Miss Emily p. Bisseli,
of Wilmington, Delaware, who learned
through jacob RIis OF somewhat slml-
lar seals that were sold In Norway for
the purpose Of raising FUNDS Win
which to fight tuberculosis.
Miss Blssell persuaded the Ameri-
can Red Cross to take up the Idea with
the result that seals were sold IN
limited number of communities In
1908. The sale yielded q revenue OF
approximately $1,000. The Red Cross
then decided to issue the seals each
year and to turn the proceeds over to
the National tuberculosis association
and Its affiliated societies for the pur-
pose Of financing the campaign against
tuberculosis. The number OF seals
sold In America increased by leaps
and bounds until In 1917 the total
reached 18O,000,000.
This year the seals are again on
sale beginning December l. More
than half billion seals have been
printed for distribution to state and
local agents. IN addition to the
seals Health Bonds" In denomlna'
tions ranging from $500 to 5000
are to be sold in lieu Of seals ia
large contributors, who do not send
out sufficient quantity of mail In
December to make use Of all the seals
they would like to purchase. The
combined quotas Of all the state or
canizatiOns call for more than $4,000,
600 to carry out the intensive educa
tional campaign being conducted b,
the National fuberculosis Association
and Its 1000 affiliated societies.
The intensive sale OF these seal
represents q practical demonstration
of every lesson that has been learnst
regarding scientific distribution. Eek
perts Of the highest standing IN sale'
management have co-opsratNtl to th'
extent OF assuring thoSe interested
that every resident of ne Unitsf
Stutes will have an opportunity TO buI
