are you going to kill? You sound

the small sun parlor where Malcolm
and Jane were talking.

ton he's coming up here"
sHere?"
."Oh, don't mean to stay with us
here, but he may stay with you if
you ask him prettily."
"Let me know when he's coming"
said Perilla, sand I'll be out. I'm
planning a trip to California, any,
way, and can take it then"
s'Perilla, dear, we've got to take
up Farman as burden, you know.
You can't leave him to run around
by himself, you know"
For moment Perilla looked pan
icky, then she said, 'But you told
me, Malky, to. treat him as if he
weren't there. I'm ready to do what

Corey chose his men quickly enough;
he knew just whom he wanted; but
I couldn't settle on my bridesmaids

I wanted to ask them all"
"And were they at the house over
night, the night before the we'd
ding?
Nearly ALL" and Perilla gave him
a list of the men who were there
overnight. Then she told of the re-
hearsal for the ceremony, of the two
Tenney girls coming over, of NAL
colin and Box taking them home, at
which time she and Hilda left the
party and went to their rooms.
"Why do you want to know these
things?" she asked Stone. '"They
can't possibly have any bearing on
the case"
''Not much accustomed to detec-
tives, are your" he said. "What seems
insignificant to you may prove of ut
most benefit to me-"
''But you don't suspect any of my
bridal party!" and Perilla stared at
him.
mo, but you do" Stone returned,
for Perilla had suddenly turned
white and her eyes gazed at him in
wonder. Her lips trembled and she
had clearly had sudden and shock
ing memory.
''Tell me about it," said Stone,
gravely. "Who was it,"

"Boys can have hot passions. Did
he ever follow up that speech, say,
when you became engaged to Mr..
Malden?"
"Well, he acted up the day of the
wedding, but that was only"
''Only what?"
Perilla had been about to say, con-
ly fooling," but she knew that was
not true. So she said, "It was after
we were in the car, ready to start,
he put his head in the window and
kissed me in conspicuous, even in
sulting way. But afterward Corey

COMMON
COURTESY.

No business asset exceeds in
value common courtesy friendly
towns usually prosper.
Common courtesy compels a
merchant to display his merchan-
disc in print-the customer should
not be forced to spend much time
looking for what he wants.
One should not have to wear
ones self to shreds on a treasure
hunt from store to store to see
what up and doing merchants
stock to sell.
The least a friendly store can do
is to display it's stuff in print-re-
member advertising is news
about ones business.

COURT DEFEAT
TO SPRECKELS

NEW YORK, March 2S.-The
marital troubles Of Adolph B.
Spreckels, jr., heir to the sugar
fortune, became more acute here
when the Appellate Division de-
MED him the right to take his
fight on residence requirements to
the Court of Appeals.
Meanwhile, attorneys for Mrs.
Gloria Debevoise Spreckels, his
bride of few weeks who is suing
him for a legal separation, are
planning to proceed with a de-
mand in court for $4,000 a year
alimony.
SpreckelS' attorneys, however.
are considering defying the Ap.
pellate Division by taking their
fight directly to the Court of Ap.
pealS and to the United States Su.
preme Court If necessary. They
claim there is no action possible
in New York as neither SpreckelS
nor his wife are legal residents Of
the State.
