What would be the effect of

"I don't know; / have never taken
more than two, but j fancy that
three would produce a slumber more
profound even than an a%nesthetic
brings and which would make one
sleep until the effects had worn off,
and then be very ill aftcrward. Ser
geant Barry, is that what was the
matter with me this morning? l told
you how dizzy | was and how my
head ached. Did someone drug me?

that Laurel had been murdered
there. practically beside me-, and I
had slept so stolidly through it ALL"
"I don't know yet" Barry replied,
adding in n significant tone: DIN

night, Miss Tudor"
1.-THE hot milk!' she exclaimed. 81
don't think hat it did, now that you
remind me of it. 1t seems to me
that there was a chalky quality in l.
and the touch of ~acridness that one
sometimes notices in buttermilk-
something like fermentation! But
Laurel drank it with me! She took
more than L. Could those powders
have been mixed with it, and killed
her?"
No, it would only have produced
a sleep a little more profound than
your own Barry replied. You may
have suffered slightly from your
share of it this morning, but [ think
Something else was the matter, too.
The symptoms you described to me
are identical with those induced by
a slight inhalation OF the gas which
killed your cousin"

sounded from the porch. MY dear,
where are you?"

Fay turned to the detective in swift
dismay. "Oh. you see that l must

Miss Tudor, at any question l may

When she had gone he replaced in

Violet turned upon her.
YES" she cried scornfully, you
would go on playing the innocent!
I wonder if you realize that you owe
me an explanation"
Polly took breath to speak, but
Barray cut in:
Nine. Dawson owes no eXplana-
ton to anyone. If there is any
fault, it is mine. Perhaps 1 do owe
an explanation. tt is simple. We
got separated. quite accidentally
from the others after the studio
party. We searched in vain. Some
turning some suddenly ~concocted
plan of theirs, cut us off. We wan
dered on, glad of a breath of air.
We thought of the markets. and
went to them. It's quite a usual
thing to do There's nothing sus-
picious or open to criticism about it.
I've brought Madame Polly home
and there is our story" He bowed
to Polly. Good night, little Queen"
he said quietly, " OF rather good
morning. I regret more than I can
say, this-this contretemps."
Polly mumbled confused greetings
to~them both and entered the house.
The concierge was s%crubbing the
marble hallway. 1t was good to see
Nine. Dubois comfortable back, her
rudy, kindly face. y
Bon jour. madame!" Polly called

Did you bring any of them to

Barry inquired.

the Magic Green Shoes. Without a
word he reached out and pulled all
four goloshes from the feet of the
Twins and in a second more he had
the Green Shoes off too, and was
stretching them over his own enor-
mou claws with grunts of joy.
All the while Nancy and Nick
down on their knees, rubbing and
scrubbing at the horrid sticky mess
on the floor, wondered duly what it
was all about. The words of Twelve
Toes were true. They remembered
nothing.

"Chap. 55-The Rebuff'

Violet walked to the corner again.
The concierge made no reply save
to apply to her sweeping a vigor
that expressed disapproval of this
smartly gowned visitor who came at
such an unheard of hour inquiring
for Nine. Dawson. If Nine. Dawson
went to a party and chose to spend
the night with her friend, Mile.
Brady, what affair was it of any
one else? Huh! And the good house
keeper flicked her dust with a will
The rattle of a taxi made her look
round. 1t drew up at the curb and
at the same moment the lady who
had come inquiring returned from
her stroll to the corner.
Out of the taxicab stepped
Nine. Dawson and a gentleman.
The concierge's mouth fell ajar with
amazement. Surely it couldn't be,
and yet-there was the evidence of
her own eyes! She waited for no
more, her shrewd wits telling her
that the handsomely dressed lady
was there. for some ugly purpose
She didn't want to know. She gath
cred up her cleaning things. and
went into the house.
Violet contrived to come UP just
as Polly was being helped from the
cab by Barray.
"Well, Welt" She advanced with
hands extended. Where have you

got lost. Polly, and I came over to

with, restrained sharpness. you

mean by waylaying us in this fash

Neither do I like your traipsinG

as you do, what do you mean by
such conduct?' You may well make

Polly made a movement as If to

NEW YORK-Summer toys for
the little miss of seven or eight are
quite as smart as those designed for
her mother. The same loose beltings
and cleverly cut and tailored collars
are found on her coats, and her
hats, just as are mothers, are pro-
durable in the very fabrics of which
her frocks and wraps are made. The
costuming of the small girl is a de-
light and an art.
A popular fabric for the fashion
ing of girls wraps and hats is En-
Tour, which is used for the model
shown. En- Tour is of medium
weight and turns the dust nicely.

This amiable attitude is rudely nssall-

One would suppose that MIR. Ford

His own committee racked Its brains

fact explains why the ncighbors talk.
In 1920 the borough Of Manhattan
WAS the scene OF 126 homloidcs and IN
1921 the total was 1862. while the first
three months OF this year the record
was SO, which indicates that the
chances OF meeting sudden and
violent death arc increasing In the
greatest city OF the country. For 20
OF tho murders In 1920 no arrests were
made and Of all OF those arrested for
homicide or murder only ~ were con-
victed. In 1921 III persons wcrc mr.
rested for homicide or murder and OF
these ~ were convicted. showing that
homicide Is not altogether a danger
Gus recreation In the great city.
Unluclily the statisticians have
done little with Chicago's record but
what they have CLEANED may be
briefly summarized here. In 1920 there
were 116 murders within tho city and
for 80 OF these no arrests were made
but in 1921 the number OF murders
mounted to 1862, which was nearly one
a day. This account is abbreviated

LOOK TO THE SOURCE.

Don't forget" says the Delaware
Ledger OF Newark. "to ask the candi-
dates for the General Assembly what
their views are regarding State taxes,
and get them TO pledge themselves to
reduce them before you grant them
your vote. II is our only chance of
getting back TO a normal basis"
But this course will not be sufficient
There may be candidates who will
pledge themselves TO anything in ad-
vance OF the election, in the hope OF
securing votes. and then violate their
pledges when II comes TO the test OF
action. Time and again have constitu-
encies been grossly deceived in thi,
manner.
The most important consideration
in the matter OF selecting good candi
dates and electing them is to ascer.
tain their real character and the par
tisan influences they represent II {
candidate is known TO stand for tn,
partisan influences which are main
ly responsible for the load Of extrav
agance and high taxes that has beeI
imposed upon the people of Delaware
those who desire relief should yot
against him, no matter what may b.
said In his behalf or by the candidat
himself. Therein is the only safety.
