When I re- turned to Seattle in 1918, the previ- ous years of exposure and rough living had taken their toll and I commenced to suffer with rheuma- tism, constipation and indigestion, that weakened and pulled me down so much that I was afraid I'd final ly have to give up entirely.
 After all other medicines failed to help me started Sargon, and that was the beginning of my pres ent splendid health.

SYNOPSIS: A household of hate becomes a scene of tragedy without grief when the detested Dan Parados is shot to death. The only known persons on San Lucas Island are connected with his estate. Anatole Flique, a Paris detective who chances to be present, gets the jump on the police for clues. He finds Parados murdered, then con ducts a dinner table murder game" before revealing the crime. Alibis flow freely as Samuels, a deputy attorney, questions each member of the household. A yellow flower pet al is found in Parados' safe. Celia Ferris, Parados' secretary, fears this may duplicate her sweetheart, Claude Annersley. He was wearing a yellow rose in his coat lapel just before the murder.

 And yellow roses frequently lose their petals Annersley replied. T can't help it if the person who killed Parados happened to be wear ing a yellow rose. That's my bad luck. You've forgotten Miss Jahries' statement"

Chapter II ANNERSLEY SPEAKS OUT

Annersley's voice was tender as he patted Celia's hand.
 Its all right, Celia. I didn't kill him. Miss Jahries gave me all the alibi I'll need. What do you want to know, Samuels?"
 "The truth. What was the trouble between you and Parados?"
 "Business-the Fleetwood Trad ing company"
 "Go ahead"
 q met Parados ten years ago, Annersley began bitterly. He hadn't much money then. The idea of the company was sound. Para dos wanted another hundred thou- sand. I let him have it. He was a wizard at business.
 We made money I was satis- fled, up to a couple of months ago.

Bitterness was in Annersleys eyes. The company didn't mean much to Parados by now-he had a dozen-but it meant everything to me. There was an opportunity to get some beach property, he said. Did I want to go in pretty deep? did, since he recommended it. l had about $50,000 loose-and turned it over to him.
 "A month later he told me the stuff was worthless. An error of judgment he said. The liar! He said the board-his board-had voted to accept a ridiculously small offer from another of his compan- ies. It would finish the Fleetwood company and take my $50,000 too I'll be out $150,000!"
 You will be? Hasn't 1t gone through yet?"
 Its pending"
 "Mmn. What are you doing here tonight2"
 T thought I'd try a last appeal.
 Tt failed?"
 "He was killed before I could talk to him." Annersley said husk- fly.
 What did you mean by pend ing'?" Samuels asked.
 Just that-pending. I don't be- lieve Parados had signed the au- thorization," he went on uneasily.
 Why was Parados trying to break you, Annersley?"
 That was his little way. He he wanted people to hate him"
 "Yes, but why did Parados be- gin to express his hatred for you at this particular time?"
 I've told you"
 NO. you haven't. There's a req son"
 "Dig for it, then!' Annersley shouted.
 "Terl him, Claudel" Celia plead ed. It must come outl" But An nersley was silent. Don't you see? Parados liked me-and Claude and I were engaged! There, you've got it."
 "Why did you remain here, Miss Ferris?"
 Celia colored. T did because don't you see?--if had broken with Parados he would have ruined the Fleetwood company and Claude!" Celia began to weep.
 Kirk looked up just then.

 ''Viola!" F'lique exclaimed.
 A warm glow spread over An nersley's face. but it was Celia who expressed what both of them felt. "Oh, Claudel" she wept ecstat- ically.
 Are you satisfied?" Annersley in- quired dryly.
 Its your trick Samuels admit ted. When did you first notice that rose, Flique?" he demanded.
 But moment ago. I cast my eyes down and it was there. It will be necessaire to commence again, yes2"
 Not altogether" Samuels said. T suppose your husband wasn't given to buttonholes, Mrs. Para dos?"
 "Dan!" Mrs. Parados laughed, without humor. He once dis charged an executive for coming into his office with a spring of mignonette in his coat
 T don't wear buttonholes, either, MT. Samuels," Caroline said un- expectedly.
 Her blue eyes were challenging and derisive. Her courage had im- pressed itself upon me and I felt pride as it reasserted itself. Sam uels' eyes smouldered with sus- picion as he looked at Caroline. The interruption at that moment was fortunate.
 "The phoenix is gone!" Mrs. Parados suddenly shrilled. "Dan's jade phoenix"
 Mrs. Parados was pointing at the empty glass case on the mantel- the glass case that had caused Parados such acute distress just be- fore I had left him--a few minutes before his death.
