ger of some kind and had given
 warning.
 1 This is just exactly what had hap 1 pencd. Tattlcr is the watchman of | the marshes. Wherever he goes he
 is always on the watch, and the in-
 stant he sees anything suspicious he
 gives the alarm. Because his whistle
 can be heard so far all the marsh i folk have learned to look on him as i q sort of watchman and to be on Iguard whenever they hear that whistler. So Tattler is true to his name. It is, of course, a nice kind Of tattling, because it is doing his Ineighbors a good turn. It has. how ever, made him greatly disliled by some who miss a dinner because of his tattling.
 Danny himself decided that as long as he didn't know what the danger might be, the wisest thing for him 10 do would be 10 get back home. So away he went as fast as his short legs could take him. Just as he reached the hollow log in which he had made his home familiar voice said Hello! So this is where you are living"
 Danny gave a little squeak of startled surprise. Then he found his voice: Hello" said he. "Yes, this is where l am living. My. how you startled me, Jimmy Skunk!' For it was his old friend of the bathhouse, the black Jimmy Skunk.
 What were you running so fast for?" inquired Jimmy.
 Danny looked a wee bit foolish. 'I don't know" he confessed. "Tattler the Yellow-lces gave an alarm and everybody scmed 10 take it as danger signal, so ] ran home"
 Jimmy grinned. If you run every time you hear Tattler down there on the marsh. you'll spend a good deal of your time running" said he. "Tattler is a good watchman all right but he whistles when there is no need of it. He is such q timid fcl- low himsrlf.& and so very watchful, that he whistles an alarm at the least hNtN Npttltu or uuuSudl OllIlE- Hes a great traveller, that fellow is"
 "Is he any greater traveller than fine other foatherod folk who go south in tbe winter?' inquired Dam ny.
 He travels twice as far as most Of them do,' replied Jimmy. At least. that is what l have been told. I am told that there are very few birds go as far south as he does in the winter. In the spring he goes almost as far north Perhaps 1t is tho dangers of these long journeys that make him so watchful and sus- picious. By the way. I thought you were going 10 lnt me show you things.

I told my little kins- | woman of th box of poisoned candy (which Lucia had prepared for Philip ] SCarsdale and of her note 10 him, land also said she had left a note for Iher husband in which she told of ! her plot 10 take both him and Kath- crime on her journey into eternity. and Of her maledictiOn against me for my interference with her plan.
 But won't that be published 9" Katherine asked in the same quick alarm which 1 had felt. No" I assured her, "because Lucia left another note, also ad- dressed to Hal, in which she said that she had discovered she must die horribly, that she could not face it and was taking the easiest way out. Their family physician took the note 10 give to the coroner, so there will be no scandal and no questioning.
 She drew a long breath of relief.
 Ask Him to Tell Hal"
 "She left no other message?" she .queried after a minutes silence.
 If she did" I evaded. 'Dr. Mere .dith would hardly let anyone see them beside himself, would he?"
 No, l suppose not" she agreed abscntly, and in my turn I breathed freely.
 She did not speak again for long time. then she broke the silence with an abrupt Will Dicky sec Hal again soon?"
 'I am sure he will.
 "Then will you ask him to tell Hal of my deep sympathy and un- derstanding, and of my longing to help him. It is the only way I can send him message; for, of course, under the circumstances. I must neither write him nor see him. And, oh. Madge, Can you understand that just now 1 feel as if I never wanted 10 see him or hear from him again?"

 Sure enough there was a cash girl at my locker, and the moment l hung up my hat she said, Miss Dean, Doctor Flint asked if you would come to his office"
 Certainly" I answered and fol- lowed her.
 Doctor Flint met me with q very serious face as I opened the door, I could see that he was trying to smile, but he made me feel that if he smiled very long his face would crack.

 That got the doctors goat at once. Finally, after clearing his throat once or twice. the old hypo- .crite said most pompously, 'I will not disguise from you, Miss Dean, Ithat the Morton Department Store is placed in most disagreeable posi- Ition by the death of Miss Cleaver."
 He stopped and waited for me 10 speak.
 "Yes?" The word was as insolcnt as I could make 1t.

Does Katherine Mask Her True
 Feelings For Hal?
 I found Katherine at the lowest point Of the wall separating River side Drive Park from the railroad tracks. She was standing notion less, looking out upon the Hudson, but I knew that she saw neither the rippling waters of the river nor the sunlit Jersey hills beyond. Indeed, so absorbed was she in her own thoughts that for fear of startling her by my sudden appearance I called her name softly before I was quite up to her.
 She turned swiftly, with a face so drained of color that l was alarmed. But at the look which must have flashed across my own countenance she smiled wanly.
 Don't be frightened, Madge," she said, coming swiftly up to me. 1T am all right. It's only that I'm try ing to acquit myself. Oh-Madge!

 She was clinging 10 me now with an abandon which l never had seen in the self-contained little nurse. It was no time for half measures. l took her by the shoulders and held her off from me, looking at her with a sternness I was far from feeling.
 Have you lost your mind also?" I demanded. If you haven't, let me tell you now that you were in no possible way to blame. that Lu- cia Meredith's last thought and last message were for Philip Scarsdale. It is a terrible thing to say, but in my opinion the world is a better place with that woman out of it. And how infinitely better for her She had a quick. easy death instead of lingering, torturing one. made more horrible by a sudden attack of insanity. Come, Katherine, this isn't like you.

 The featured players, Emil Jan

 in this country in Quo Nadis" and Passion" has added a host of fol- | lowers by his latest success. In the character of Boss, one of the Euro pean Trapeze Artists, tanning gives
 a supreme portrayal of the agonies

 The vaudeville program for the first half of this week consists of the following scelct acts. The Musi- cal Johnstons open the bill with some very pleasing xylophone num-
 bers. Nile and Mansfield follow with
 a lively sketch of newlywed life that is true in a good many cases.
 The sketch. although true to life, is l aided throughout by clever comedy. Julia kelety, the versatile French | actress give a very entertaining performance of songs and comedy
 talk. Her rendition of the French Flower song fairly we'll stopped the

CAPITOL SHOW LIKED

The crowds are still attending the Capitol after its opening last Satur- day evening and are still being as- tonished with the renovations given the theater this past summer. Patrons are visibly surprised at the beautiful theater and to those who have not yet paid it a visit we will say that it is worth while doing so as New Britain has right to be proud of the newly renovated Capitol.
 The attraction for today and Wednesday offers Thomas Meighan in absolutely the greatest role you have ever seen him in. His acting even surpasses the famous role he played in "The Miracle Man" Mir. Meighan is ably supported. by two leading women, Renee Adoree and Aileen Pringle.
 William S. Jeffs and the Capitol orchestra have also made a decided hit with Capitol patrons and Mir. Jeffs directorship and the results he accomplishes with the orchestra is already 8 feature of this theater and will be more so in. the near future.

this continues, further tax reduc- ton might be undertaken later. but he warned that any business depression now would require an increase in rates If the levies were reduced beyond the present.
 The fact that tax returns for this quarter are comparable with those of year ago somewhat sur prised officials in view of the fact that the full effect of repeal of the capital stock levy, entailing an an- ual loss of s100,O00,00O, was felt almost entirely in this quarter, when such tax usually had been paid.
 Increased corporation taxes off, set the loss of the capital stock levy somewhat, and Mir. Mellon stated that If another tax reduc- tion were made soon, he felt that the corporation levy shoudl receive consideration. He emphasized, how ever, that all tax reduction should walt until safe treasury margin was assured, and "all categories of taxes can be cut"

 TAX SLASH NOW
Treasury Head Wants Present Schedule Given Years Trial

Washington, Sept. q LPl - Con- sideration Of federal tax reduction should wait at least another year for full test of the present rates, in the opinion of Secretary Mellon.
 At his first conference with President Coolidge since his recent trip abroad, the treasury secretary painted an optimistic picture Of European conditions and expressed the belief that the American debt settlements impose no burden upon the debtor nations. He expressed belief that France will ratify the debt agreement with the United States.
 Mir. Mellon, announcing that tax collections for the September quar- ter again had exceeded estimates and probably would approximate s425, 100000. said that there could be slight cut in rates now, but that he would not recommend such action.
 Increased tax receipts this year, despite the reduction in rates, were attributed by the secretary to the prosperity of business last year. Ii
