Breakfast was brought. Mechani-

it away.

Probably a hypochondriac.She wants
to see you, but feel rather as if
she is not going to welcome you
with open arms. Do you know her
at all?"
'Only what I have heard of her.
But she is my husbands mother
81 didn't talk with her directly,
but 1 was informed that the funeral
services would be held at Maiden
Hall, and that her son would be
buried in Richmond"
Every well; that is for her to de-
eide"
Mr.. Harwicke, manager of the
hotel, arrived then, and Perilla and
Doctor Horribly went to the living
room to meet him. Just as the doctor
was abount to suggest calling in a
mortician Mr. Lowell and Malcolm
Fairfax arrived.
Perilla threw herself in Mr. Low
ellis arms, at the same time drawing
Malcolm to her. Only for moment
she gave way to her emotion and
then, recovering her poise, she spoke
in her usual tone, though her voice
trembled.
"Just moment said John Lowell,
''Perilla, dear, you must-you must
tell us just what happened"
"But I don't know, father. I mean
I don't know what-what Corey di-

"Have you, Doctor Hornby?" Low
ell went on.
mo, sir. It is a most curious case.
There is no possible reason that the
man should have died. I have made
a most thorough examination, and
find no hidden weakness, no unsu
spected organic trouble, no flaw in
an unusually fine constitution. I
should have guaranteed Mr.. NAL
den's life for years. would be most
glad of your further advice, Mr..
Lowell Of course, the family doctor
in Richmond, who has doubtless
known the subject long time, will
agree or disagree with my findings.
l trust I shall be informed which.
The case is exceedingly curious. I
can find no reason whatever for
death, and I am utterly at loss to
explain the circumstance"
''Is there, by any possibility, a
chance for wrongdoing, for foul
play"
''Not the slightest! Mr.. Maiden
was here alone with his wife, to all
appearances as well as ever, when
he simply fell to the floor, dying"

II dread seeing her." Perilla said,
as they started their drive. II know
she wont like me-"
Don't take it like that, SIS" and
Malcolm, helping her in, smiled at
her kindly. maybe you won't like
her, either, but you can't help that.
You have part to carry through,
and I'll warrant you'll do it just
about all right"
Worn by the strain she had so
long been under, Perilla's head
nodded and refreshing sleep
brought to Maiden House a calm,
self-composed young woman, ready
to meet whatever might be her fate
or her experience.
The place was a typical old south
ern home, and had Perilla gone
there with Corey, as she had ex-
pected she would have felt all it's
charm and grandeur, and gloried in
thinking she was to become one of
the fine old family. But as they went
up the long drive the beautiful
flowers and foliage seemed to be-
come more and more like black
| forest.
AS they mounted the steps of the
Colonial porch, the great doors were
swung open by two elderly men
servants, who bowed stiffiy.
"This way, if you please ma'am,' %
and the older man, looking almost
like Uncle Tom, ushered them into
a pleasant reception room, looking
out on some gardens.
The man disappeared, only to re-
turn in moment, and bid them into
another room. This was quite evil

room, being comfortable, luxuri-
our type, and showing decorations
and mementoes of the past.
In large and rather formal chair,
sat an elderly, sharp-featured
woman, whose handsome face was
deprived of beauty by the express
sion of Miniature and unkindness
that marred it. Ignoring John Low
ell she stared at Perilla, and in a
harsh, cold voice she said:
$50 you're the girl who married
my son!"
Surprised at this sort of reception,
Perilla managed to control the re-
sentiment she felt. and said, quietly,
eyes, Mrs. Maiden, am, and I"
A skinny, claw-like hand was
shaken in her face, and the croaking
voice went on:
"And murdered him."
John Lowell stepped forward in
wrath.
'Come, Perilla, I will not let you
be submitted to another speech like
that"
"You will not 60, you will re-
main!'
almost shieked the old lady, but
Lowell stood his ground.
II will not stay to submit my
daughter to another speech like that!
A speech that I cannot stoop to
reply to-"
II can, father, leave it to me. Did
you love your son, Mrs. Malden?"
Glove him! Far more than you can
guess or imagine"
''Then you cannot believe he
would marry girl who would muir
der him. If you loved him, as you
say, you know his goodness and
charm, you know his tenderness and
gentle kindness. I, too, know all
those things, and I know even more
Of his love and deotion than you do.
But know, too, that if you say such
thing as that anyone killed him,
I know you are insane. Nobody in
his right mind could think for a
moment that anyone could kill Cor
ey Maiden, least of all anyone who
loved him."
The old dame fairly quivered as
she looked at her daughter-in-law.
"Yet he was killed. she said
storn1ily. "My boy was sound and
without weakness or blemish of any

ance examiners said so, I, his moth

quire what the "doubtfuls on the
private polls taken by both parties
really meant. The canvassers did not
know. They insisted that the voters
wouldn't say. 1t occurred to me that
a Republican voter on the w. P A.
pay roll might be afraid to tell a
Republican canvasser that he was
going to vote for Mr.. Roosevelt. but
why should the same voter hesitate
to tell a Democratic canvaSser his in
tentions?
Reticence Becomes New Factor.
1t begins to look as if the people
in the low income brackets not only
took a vital interest in the election
but that they were reticent about ex-
pressing themselves in advance for
fear of reprisals If the election went
against the candidate of their choice.
This is a factor to be reckoned with
in the future by both parties, espe-
cially as the size of the electorate
grows to such huge totals as were
reached Tuesday.
If these voters wouldn't tell a party
canvasser their intentions, they prob
ably wouldn't tell the DR.. Gallup poll
representatives or answer a Literary
Digest ballot. 1t begins to look as if
the secrecy of the American ballot
was beginning to extend not only to
election day but to the days in ad-
vance of election as we'll.
