 However, I don'tthink that you need worry for either your son or Leslie if you just stay out of it and those about her will leave her alone.
 There has been altogether too much fuss made over the fact that Leslie might have children and then would feel sorry that she had adopt d little Jack. Personally ] do not think that she will ever know any difference in her love for either, the one she bears or-the one she chose 10 make her own.

 At last, Wise drew long sigh, as of very surfeit of the beauty before him, and turned to the group, who awaited his questions, with widely different anticipations.
 It was tea-time, always a pleasant function at the RaynOr house, and Ezra Goddard had arranged that the first inquiries of the detective should be conducted under the guise of social chat rather than an official grilling.
 It transpired that the detective knew the history of the case.
 De careful In your statements" !" he counseled. There is nothing so uncertain as human evidence If I am to get at the facts of this case. I must have the most meticulous efforts on the part of you all to speak the truth. Let us take this point of Mrs. Raynor's position when Miss Turner put the lights on. { Miss Turner, can you swear that Mrs. Raynor was leaving the room ?'
 "Yes-oh, yes"
 Was she frightened-looking?"
 "Yes, indeed she wss."

Douglas lay oil the floor Finley stood near him, revolver in hand, Miss Turner was at the north door, or just inside it, and Miss Matte was close to her. But As l came in at the south door my sister was just entering the west door. She was not going out, she was not fleeing or running away, she was coming in -I saw her-her face horror stricken with surprise and fright"
 Miss Turner gave supercilious smile.
 MT Kent is quite right" she said, "'but it must be remembered that he came in few moments later than the rest of us. That was Mrs, Ray nors return that he saw. l saw her leave the room, hastily, as l said, and I then saw her return, coming in at the door, as her brother also entered at the south door. This, think, explains the seeming dis crcpancy in our accounts"
 Kent looked baffled. More nerv- ous than ever, he picked at his coat collar-pulled his handkerchief from his breast pocket and returned it there. drummed on his knees with his fingers and finally said:
 Mir. Dobbins. you have only Miss Turner's unsupported word for that and I hold that is not sufficient"
 Poor Dobbins looked worried to death. He saw no loophole of eX- planation-it was all to him deep incXplicable mystery. The only

You had a kind oc an idea that Leslie was spending her time at her fathers silk led and weeping in her room, now didn't you?

West at the afterglow of the sunset. It was growing dark but there were few silvery clouds fading to gray. And even If l had come up the hill looking toward the. house l could not have seen any one who had come out of that south door, if he had been care ful to skulk along in the shadows of the shrubbery, which doubtless he would have done."
 That's true" Finley said, "and l agree, MT. Dobbins, that you have that south door unaccounted for and you must take into considera- ton the possibility that the mur- derer of MT. Raynor escaped that way"
 "Granting that possibility, then" | Dobbins continued, "1 say that we have here present the three known to have been at the other three doors, and MT. Kent, who appeared at the south door very little later. I would like a sworn statement from each of you as to what you saw and heard. MT. Finley, will you speak first, and remember you are on oath"
 T heard the shot went from the east Yeranda to the east door of the sun room, l went in ,and l saw Douglas Raynor on the floor, a re- yolver at his side. I picked 1t up an involuntary act, for which l have no definite explanation, and at that moment, Miss Turner snapped on the lights"
 Did you see Mrs, Raynor In the room? Recolect. you are on oath. !"

 Coming in or going out?'
 "As I was so amazed at the sight Of MT. Raynor, and little blinded by the sudden light, l cannot posi- lively answer your question. But to the best of my knowledge and belief she was coming in
 The quiet tones, the straightfor- ward air did more to carry convic- ton than emphasis could have done Nan looked at him gratefully, and Orry showed relief at the words.
 You think she was going out, Turner?''
 T know she was" said the nurse T saw her even before l saw Mr. Raynor and l can swear she was hast ening out of the room."
 Mrs. Raynor, do you care to tes- tify?"
 ''No-I'd rather not"-said Nan in a voice so low as to be almost inaudible.
 Eva Turner said nothing, but tho triumphant look on her face told o1 her conviction of Mans guilt.
 q haven't spoken yet" Kent said deliberately. "I suppose l have right to be heard, Mir. Dobbins?"
 "Certainly-I wish you would re count what you saw when you ap ptared on the scene."
 T came in at the south door, Orry began, land I found the seem much as you have all described 1t

The Magician living on Treasure Island had told the Raggedys and the little fat Captain that he made the treasures and buried them upon the island go that people would come and search for them. And he had said this There are treasures bur led all over the island and you 2n find them by searching almost in any direction"
 The Magician had also told the Raggedys and the little fat Captain that it was lots of fun hiding the treasures and watching people search for them because it was just like a game of hide and seek.
 Now the fierce Brigands will dis cover @ treasure upon Watch Tower Hill" Raggedy Ann said. Cause the Magician said there was a treas ure buried there too, so let us so another way and see if we can find a treasure too"
 And, as there was very pretty little stream Of water running through the woods. the Raggedys and the little fat Captain decided to follow it's banks so that they could hear the laughing and tinkling of the water as it tumbled over the messy stones,
 And they had hardly got started upon the little path at the side of the brook before they heard loud shouting and they knew it was the fierce Brigands. They have found . the treasure" Raggedy Ann said 'Ill bet a nickel they have"

In this season when the first colds of the year are likely to make their appearance, it is pretty good idea to give the youngsters list of "don'ts" and be sure they heed them.

 Don't let them kiss anyone.
