v striving to get much needed
rest. She had lived through
such a whirl OF emotions In the two
weeks just past that she was tired
little woman.
OF course, she couldn't sleep. She
had just como from the hospital with
DR.. Lane and asked him what he
thought of Mrs. Blaisdelrs scheme
for having a trepanning operation
performed upon Dan Kellogg. who
was being held as one of the per-
sons concerned in the Blaisdell pay
roll robbery. It was Kellogg who
insisted that John Lindsay had been
his accomplice and Kellogg who said
that John had escaped with the
money. Investigation showed that
Kellogg Rad revealed criminal ten
dencies ever since an accident that
injured his head when he was four
teen.
DR.. Lanes answers. that he thought
sounded so highly technical to Mer-
riam that she had understood almost
nothing save that. II q splinter of
bone were pressing against Kellogg's
brain. 1t might have been responsi BILE
for his actions. but that operating
might or might not make things
right. AS Miss Rowden had said, he
might forget everything that had
happened since.
She found herself thinking a most
whimsical muddle Of morbid things.
She was really drifting to sleep.
Maybe il somebody had trepanned
me I'd be different woman In
stead of frivolous. giddy-gaddy per-
son. who drove her best beloved
away because she was crazy silly for
a good time and men folks to play
around with and silly big house
to live in"
She sat up in bewilderment as Su-
san Sue appeared.
"Mr. Beecher is here" said Susan.
Hes been wanting to see you for
two days. only you were always at
the hospital or the Blaisdells'."
Ralph Beecher was the upstate re-
porter who had generously under
taken to try to solve the mystery of
John Lindsay's disappearance. 1t was
he who insisted that tho 'circumstan-
tial evidence that connected John
with the crime was what he called
"hshy": he who had been working
for days on the slenderest Of clues
to try to sift out the facts. He had
been living quietly in the same board
ing house in Mineola where John had
stayed while Merriam was visiting
her father-the same house where
Kellogg had lived for several months
Merriam greeted Beecher most
apologetically.

Velvet and SILK for Dainty Belts.

These dainty bells of velvet are both
fascinating and unusual for your
large velvet hat. Stitch a spray OF
them to the underbrim and a spray
around the crown so that they will
fall over the side Of the brim. Cut
pieces of velvet ten inches long and
five inches wide. Gather them at the
bottom as tightly as you can. Slip a
round button or mold into it. Gather
the velvet just above the button, then
at the top. Make tassel of colored
