arate room-a pretext based on
the precedent set by many sum-
mers.
For this reason alone it had
been necessary for him to have
everything ready while the sum-
mer " still in full swing. And
as = had now committed himself
to a holiday in mid-July the mar
gin was limited to the period be-
fore they started and perhaps q
few weeks after their return. On
every account he hoped that the
earlier period would be available.
In point of fact he was given
good deal Of anxiety. For days
after midsummer a strong south
westerly wind blew with great
persistency, and was followed by
a week of almost continuous rain.
It was not until the second week
in July that the weather cleared
and the temperature began to rise
to an extent justifying him in
leaving Esther to sleep alone. She
proved reluctant on this occasion
to let him go, but his usual quiet
obstinacy got him his way with
out real friction.
He had given her two full doses
Of the medinal, and subsequently
two further ones of five grains.
He was not quite sure of the path
illogical requirements of the case,
but a renewed study of his Fa-
nous Trials and a standard work
Of medical jurisprudence had con-
WINGED him that the absence of any
trace Of the early doses was like
ly to be remarked upon if the OF
CANS were examined. But in view
Of the variation in the amounts
found in similar circumstances he
| judged that the doses he gave
would be sufficient.
He was unwilling to administer
any more for two reasons. One
was the need Of having enough Of
the drug left for his purpose out
of the original supply-he would
have no excuse for obtaining any
more until well into the autumn,
if at all, and in any case it would
then be too late. The second rea-
son was more subtle. A definite
Improvement in Esther's health
and spirits, which was a probable
consequence of her taking the
medinal as prescribed, would
prejudice the general plausibility
Of the tragedy he was preparing.
His tactics worked out excellent
ly. For rather over a week Esther
averaged eight hours of sound
sleep, and the benefit was sensibly
reflected in her general appear
ance. Then she began to slip
back, and the bitterness of yet
another disappointment induced, in
her a condition so peevish and
| gloomy that the ideas Tim had
planted in the minds of his friends
were given a noticeable corroho-
ration.
The time was ripe.

FOREST FIRE LOSS
SLIGHT FOR MONTH
Only 1868 Acres Burned Over With
Damage of 1915 In Septem-

Daily Dispatch BNreau=
IN fhe Sir Walter Hotel.
Raleigh, Oct. 5-Forest fires burned
over 1858 acres of woodlands and did
1915 worth of damage during the
month of August, according to the
report just issued by w. G. McCor-
mick, assistant State forester in
charge of forest fire control, the De-
partment of Conservation and Deve-
lopment announced today.
This damage was done by only 20
fires and the average loss per acre
was only 90 cents. Only 1923 acres of
merchantable timber was burned over,
only 404 acres Of young growth and
only 252 acres of open land.
Not a single one of the 20 forest
fires in August was traceable to
hunters, fishermen or campers and
none to brush burners, the report
shows. Three fires were believed to
have been started by sparks from
railroad locomotives, three to lumber
ing operations, four to incendiarism,

CHAPTER IL

, ONE MORNING at breakfast,
when Esther was looking particu-
larly haggard after an exception
ally bad night. she said to Tim:
"You know, l hardly slept a
wink last night. I'm afraid I've
got so used to the aspirin that it
isn't working any longer"
i He nodded.
II was afraid that might hap
pen-it doesn't altogether sur
prise me-"
do you think I could increase
the dose-or have it every night
INSTEAD of every two nights"
II shouldn't do that. It wouldn't
lido your nerves any good. MOI
think what you need is to try
something else. I'll ring up
Harold after breakfast"
He managed to forget to do
this, however, and by keeping out

his departure he gave her no OPP

ltion."

won't be much better. wish he'd
give me something stronger"
"Oh, I don't know. dare say
the change will do the trick"
He stroked his m u a h e
thoughtfully. He was not at all
pleased. Bromide suited his pur-
pose no better than aspirin. The
quantity required was too I'M
handy, and the result in any case
too uncertain. This would
mean a delay Of fortnight, or at
least a week.. The new prescrip-
ton would have to be given a
proper trial.
However, he concealed his vex-
alton, and proceeded to deal with
the bromide in exactly the same
way as he had with the aspirin,
except that this time he never
=. gave her dose at all. It did
not take Esther more than a few
days to come to the conclusion
that her latest sleeping -draught
had absolutely no effect on her.

"a curious simile yity of detail. .
This time DR., Arkwright called at
