!, night and this morning. Then her spirits rose a little. After all, this was only Saturday afternoon. They had the rest of the day and Marvin could not avoid her indefinitely. Probably, when he was not so con scious of being alone with her, that abnormal constraint would relax enough to permit her to probe
 again into these dangerous subjects. At present he had rankly de- serted her--quite obvious stranded
 her on her own front lawn. She had hoped to prolong their talk un- til perhaps the Belgian returned. She wondered if Tom were making any progress, over their sales dia- grams, with Statlander. If so, 1t would only hinder his probing if she were to join them. Well-she d
 better get a book and make the bets of it.
 She rose and went up the soft grass. Nearing the house she walked more and more slowly. No. she was not exactly nervous but
 somehow there lay a deeper sha- dow there than should have been on the front terrace. The house seemed so silent, so ominously breeding. If she went in Non. sense, 1t was her house, her home!
 Tom was inside. and what If ne were not? She was often here alone all day, except for the maids, or course
 That thought turned her mind to ward the faithful helpers in her kitchen.
 She had not seen them since her hurried visit this morning and she wanted to speak to them now, To express her appreciation or the way they had stood by Tom and ms mother earlier in the day. Rosie must be wondering, too, if anyone would be back for tea and Annie about dinner. Linda veered toward the dining room wing, walking along the soft turf without stepping on the gravel path.
 Al the very end of the house, where a decorative clump of bush es blocked sight of the door of the sunroom she stopped. She could hardly have said why. But She realized that for second or two she had subconsciousl been aware of the murmur of voices and now they were very plain. She won dered idly what delivery boy had come so near the front of the house He could not be by the kitchen door for the vocies would not then sound so near. Unless they were looking for her, Rosie or Annie sell dom came around here. If they came from the service door 1t was usually to so toward the road or the garage.
 The garage! At the assoclatlon of ideas. her mind came back sharp Iv to the moment. She became acutely aware of herself and her surroundings-and that low, half whispering so near. Except for 1t, the air fairly pulsed with soundless ness, this quiet. hot July afternoon on the deserted lawn. Then from her vantage point she heard voice she could not mistake, deliberately

 His voice rose coaxingly over the protest of a lighter one.
 Sure, an yell give me another! Whats one kiss but the first drop out of the sky with the whole of the rain to follow? Come, now--am I so obnoxious to ye?"
 "Oh, but please, sir!" Rosie's voice and with an edge of some thing--could it be fear? Certainly 1t was not just the fiirtatious re- sistance of a buxom Irish girl bar tering a solen kiss.
 'Sir-sir' is it? Have acted the grand gentleman with you that you try my soul with any such fool ishness? Twas not with any sirs or madams that we bothered last night when we talked of County Athlone = and others things. Why should you come out at all to talk with me if you must use such man. nerful politeness
 "'Twas of last night thought you wanted to speak when you beckoned me so secret-like behind Annie's back"
 "'Twas not of last night - for that you have assured me you have forgot!" There was nothing gall lant in the sudden sharpness of hts voice.
 "Yes, sir" The girls voice was subdued, but not repentant. Rather she seemed definitely waiting and in the pause that followed, the un- seen listener realized her own posi- tion as eavesdropper. Should she refuse to overhear and tiptoe nobly away? Probably she should-but nothing would induce her to do so She was rewarded by another at- tempt on the part of the Irishman to get around Rosie-at least that was the interpretation Linda shrewdly put upon the situation.
 "Yes, sir and yes, sir'!-Rosie 'tis the perfect echo you are! But the kitchen door is so near you cannot forget your lessons in re- spectful behavior. Come. now-do you stroll over with me to the neat little establishment I call, mine The ould dragon in the kitchen will not miss you. We can rest us m comfort with pot of strong tea between us and no one any the wiser" .s "The Madam will be needing me-" Linda had the grace to bush or feel like blushing behind her covey of bushes. Iris tea for all of you I must brew very soon. sir. What was it you wished to say to me before go in ?"

May I sit here and scribble a
 few notes?" said Sally, coming in quietly this morning. T won't say

 your mail"
 "Of course, you can," replied.
 T won't be long; just few spe- cial letters remain. "There," said, half an hour later, "what weighty problem occupies the mind of that

 Well. . she began, T love all the parties my friends are giving

 but it's not always easy. Tonight, for instance, we are attending a dinner given us by an old friend or Dicks mothers. I have a lovely new red dress I never have worn.

advise her! That hardly fitted In
 with this theory. The old man might have warned her or remon- strated with her over some too ap- parent intimacy, but what advice
 would he have given? Why that emphasis on their talking together :?
 "He was so anxious to find out, she slowly analysed every word of Marvin,s brief, confusing outburst. whether Cousin Amos and got together to talk something over after the dance. He wanted us not to talk about something. What :? Was it that Cousin Amos blamed Tie for the supposed filtration? :? How idiotic! But that wouldn't ac- count for Marvin's being - not frightened, exactly. Apprehensive, that's the word. He most awfully didn't want us to get together and to compare notes. But that again isn't reasonable. What had he done that we could discuss that way? Did Cousin Amos know some thing-?"
 Linda gave herself a little shake. "Now I'm just reading things into what he said. Everyone knows Marvin's the high-mindedest sort of person. It must have been sln1- ply calldown over his way of fo- cusing on me. Tom noticed It and I told him it was just Marvin's queer way. But Cousin Amos Of course had to infer the worst-and go straight to the point with the wrong person"
 She sighed. There had been good cause for Marvin's rage and his subsequent avoidance of her. She knew his fanatic standards of be- havior. She could not imagine. thinking swiftly, any single sugges- tion that would so quickly, so sure- ly, infiame him. Would it infiame him to murder? Perhaps not alone
 .-but with something else. equally insulting no, she really had no Justification for imagining any other motive. Nor, probably. did she need one. This slur would as surely enrage Marvin as the idea that he was ungentlemanly would infuriate DeVos and that he was unsportsmanlike would offend Stat lander and that he was social and mental inferior would hurt Shaughnessey. Uncanny Cousin Amos--to hit so surely at the weak ness of each one. The special in- suit that would instantly drive him into that state of insensate passion that might fairly be called madness and murderous madness!
 Again Linda sighed. The way of the detective was not easy. She was less a success than her first eagerness has assured her she would be. She knew-at least, she Marvin might have Killed Cousin Amos. < But she pre- ferred fact to guesswork. She did not know what had been said and certainly she had failed to find out the details of Marvin's actions last

 The driver nodded. He waited for the light to change. Then he started to follow the car. But Phil had had the advantage of the light. He was far down the street.
 Faster, faster, faster-the taxi- cab sped on. All of sudden q shrill whistle made the driver slow up. A police man was halting hiTu.

 The traffic officer examined her face carefully. "You look honest All right, go ahead, but after this watch the lights"
 The taxi spec on. Faster, faster, faster again.
 '"That cop won't look again. There isn't one of the rest of the street." the driver explained.
 But Phil had turned a corner and was IOSt.

Whether your living room is panelled or not, and even though you cannot afford genuine antique furniture, you can furnish it in the colonial spirit, for faithful repro auctions are now available. Those in maple with edges and tops smoothed and rounded to repre- sent the effect of age on old pieces and with a finish that matches the results of generations of waxing are particularly attractive.
 Reproductions of early American furniture, including upholstered pieces, can be obtained in groups in which each piece harmonizes in form, in color, and in period with the others. That makes it possible to furnish a room a piece or two at a time and adds the fun of col-, lecting to the pleasure one natur- ally gets from buying new things for the house.
