Roy Swarney-haS motive for
Beller'S death; evidence points
to him but all circumstantial
and too obvious.
Adele Beller-her apparent In
fatuation with Cap Wiegle gives
her q motive. No other evidence.
Cap Wiegle-has a motive: q

Anne Wiegle--no apparent

MARRY-GO-
ROUND
BY Helen Rowland

What Women Won't Tell
True comradeship in mar.
riage is not actually reached,
until you have loved each other
madly-and then gotten over it
sufficiently to LIKE each other
sanely.
Woman's freedom did not
come in the form of the ballot,
but in the form of a pay en-
velope.
When a woman can go
sweetly to- sleep and no longer
listen for her husbands key
in the latch, nights. it is a sign
of either complete faith or com.
plete indifference.
y When q woman falls out Of
love, she lands with a thud;
but, q man, like a cat, always
lands on his feet and walks
off-to find another woman
who will pet him, make him
comfortable, and restore his
vanity.
The old-fashioned woman
used to give her husband his
one might out" q week; but
the husband of modern won-
an Is lucky If she will give him
one night a week at home.
In choosing a husband, 1t is
so hard to find that happy
medium between the kind who
want sto stay out all night
the kind who wants to loll
aTound the house all day. But
any woman who has tried both
will prefer the rounder to the
hang-arounder.
Love is like the Solae System.
Just as you feel certain you've
got it down to an exact science,
you make another startling dis
covery, and have to begin all
over again and work 1t out on
a new theory.

the swing of these trapeze were

The Infatuated Cats.
by HENRY BROOKE.

Henry Brooke. l706-l7ss. was Q British
poet and writer author OF, I'M yersa sii
OF Quality etcJ
There was a v.llager in Hampstead,
about 10 years of age, who had con-
ceived an uncommon kindness for Ned,
on account of his sprightliness. wit and
good humor. To this condoling friend
he had impaired his grievances. and
on him alone he depended for execu-
ton of the project proposed for re-
dress. (For playing trick upon Mr..
Snarle, Ned had received chastlSement
both from Mr.. Snarle and Mr.. Fenton)
On a certain moonleSS night they
mustered four tame cats and, having
bound some infiammable fuse around
three or four inches of the extremity
of each of their tails, they lodged
them together in bag, and, somewhat
after suppertime, when all the town
was silent, they marched softly and
cautiously to the house of Mr.. Snarle.
There Ned's friend. with his knife, dex-
terously picked away the putty from
a pane of the window of side cham
Der, where no light appeared. Having
put fire to the fuse of each tail sue
cessively, they slipped their cats, one
by one, in at the window. Again having
begged the pane into its place, they
Withdrew to a little distance to watch
the issue.
The poor cats remained silent and
universally inoffensive while they felt
no damage. But as soon as the fire
had seized on their tails, they began
to speak to you in language wholly
peculiar, as one would think, to sentl-
ments and sounds of diabolical inten-
ton.

crept softly and tremblingly upstairs

turning piers. glasses and china, and
whatever came in their way, as though
it had been the very palace of Pande-
monium itself.
George was again on his legs; his
master and mistress had eloped from
the parlor, and met the two maids in
the middle of the entry. They con-
cluded to get as speedily as they might
from the ministers of darkness, and
would willingly have escaped by the
street door, but, alas this was not pos
sible; one of the devils guarded the
pass, and, clinging to the great lock
with all his talons, growled and yelled
in the dialect of 20 infuriated cats
The stairs, however. remained open,
and UP they would have rushed, but
we're so enfeebled by their fright that
it could not be done in the way of a
race.
AS they mounted, by the help of the
walls and the banisters, says Mrs.
Snarle to her mate, in languid and
soft voice:
MY dear and my jewel. It's all along
of you that / am thus haunted. Your
