'I only saw them afterward. was looking for the collar, you re- member. They came back to me afterward. knew how Cayley would feel about 1t. Poor devil!"
 Co on," said Bill. Well, then, we had the inquest and of course noticed the curious fact that Robert had asked his way at the second lodge and not at the first. So talked to Amos and Par sons. That made 1t more curious Amos told me that Robert had gone out of his way to speak to him. Parsons told me that his wife was out in their little garden at the first lodge all the afternoon, and was cer- tain that Robert had never come past 1t. He also told me that Cayley had put him on to a job on the front lawn that afternoon. So I had an other guess. Robert had used the secret passage-the passage which comes out Into the park between the first and second lodges. Robert, then. had been in the house; 1t was a put up job between Robert and Cayley. But how could Robert be there with out Mark knowing? Obviously, Mark knew too. What did it all mean?"
 When was this?" interrupted Bill Just after the inquest-after you'd seen Amos and Parsons, of course?"
 "Yes. got up and left them, and came to look for you. I'd got back to the clothes then. Why did Mark change his clothes so secretly? Dis guise? But then what about his face? That was much more impor- tant than clothes. His face, his beard he'd have to shave of his beard and then-oh idiot! I saw you look ing at that poster. Mark acting, Mark disguised. Oh, priceless idiot. Mark was Robert Matches, please"
 "Yes,' said Bill thoughtfully. "Yes But wait moment. What about the Plough and Horses ?"
 Antony looked comically at him.
 You'll never forgive me, Bill" he said.
 What do you mean?"
 Antony sighed.
 Tt was a fake, Watson. I wanted you out of the way. I wanted to be Alone. So-" he smiled and added, Well, I knew you wanted drink"
 THE END.

morning I should probably telegraph to MT. Cartwright of Wimpole street and ask him to identify the body" Bill nodded thoughtfully and went back again to the letter.
 1T see. And you told Cayley that you were telegraphing to Marks dentist?"
 "Yes. And then of course it was all up for him. Once we knew that Robert was Mark we knew every thing"
 How did you know?" Antony got up from the breakfast table and began to fill his pipe. Well, let's see if can go through my own mind again. and tell you how I guessed it. First of all, the clothes" /"
 "Yes?"
 ITO Cayley the clothes seemed an enormously important clue. l felt certain that, in that case, the absence of the collar was unintentional. In collecting the clothes he had over- looked the collar. Why?"
 Tt was the one in the linen basket?"
 "Yes. It seemed probable. Why had Cayley put it there? The ob- vious answer was that he hadn't. Mark had put 1t there.'
 "Go on," said Bill eagerly.
 Well, why had Mark changed down there instead of in his bed room? The only answer was that the fact of his changing had to be kept secret. When did he change? :? The only possible time was between lunch (when he would be seen by the servants) and the moment of Roberts arrival. And when did Cayley collect the clothes in bundle? Again, the only answer was Before Roberts ar rival.' So another was wanted-to fit those three conditions"
 And the answer was that mur- der was intended, even before Robert arrived?"
 "Yey. Well now. it wasn't possible a murder could be intended without any more preparation than the changing into different suit in which to escape The thing was too child ish. Also, if Robert was to be mur- dered why go out of the way to an nounce his existence to you all? began to feel now that Robert was an incident only; that the plot was plot of Cayley's against Mark-either to get him to kill his brother, or to get his brother to kill him--and that for some inexplicable reason Mark seemed to be lending himself to the plot" He was silent for a little, and then said, almost to himself T had seen the empty brandy bottles in that 
 You never said anything about them" complained Bill

SELL IN AMERICA
Demirtash Embroideries Find Ready Market In This Country.

Broussa, Asia Minor, Aug. 26.-- There has developed recently in the United States large market for the native home-spun cloths and em- broideries of the little village of De-
 mirtash, near Broussa.
 The Demirtash patterns are abso- lutely unique. nothing of the kind be- ing produced in any other part of
 the world. According to Miss Con-
 stance Shetman. of Louisville, Ky,
 an American relief worker who has
 had large part in stimulating the output of the native workships, the
 patterns are of Macedonian origin, having been imported into the Brous- sa district about 200 years ago. The work at the present time provides a livelihood for 700 Armenian and 200 Greek refugees.

turbed, says New York Times. But
after she has carried home the pur-

CORY of crimes, big and little, some

fact relatively few escape. Fortu-

the cards against the crook and the
percentage is almost unbearable. says
San Francisco Chronicle. No matter
how clever the criminal may be, sooner
