In the north Caucasus. the
Germans were advancing rapidly

forces south of Krasnodsr.
The task OF the forces defending
Stalingrad, II was said, was made

German air attacks.
The situation grew more grave

Lord, "some one wished her dead"
Hercule Poirot murmured: q won

mean? 2"
Poirot shook his head. "Not yet"
He turned about. eve have been all
through the house. We have seen all
that there is to be seen here. Let us
90 down to the lodge"
Here again all was in order; the
rooms dusty, but neat and emptied of
personal possessions. The two men
stayed only a few minutes. As they
came out into the sun, Poirot touched
the leaves Of a pillar rose growing up
a trellis 1t was pink and sweet
scented. He murmured: DO you
know the name Of this rose? 1t is
Zephyrine Droughin my friend"
Peter Lord said irritably: what
of it,"
HercuIe Poirot said: "When l saw
Elinor Carlisle, she spoke to me of
roses. 1t was then that began to see
not daylight, but the little glimpse
of light that one gets in train when
one is about to come out of a tunnel.
1t is not so much daylight, but the
promise Of daylight"

Coffee on a shelf above. There was a
sink and draining board and a papier-
mache washing-up bowl In front of
the window was a table.
Peter Lord said: at was on this
table that Elinor Carlisle cut the
sandwiches. The fragment of the
morphine label was found in this
crack in the floor under the sink"
Poirot said thoughtfully; "The police
are careful searchers. They do not
miss much"
Peter Lord said violently: "There's
no evidence that Elinor ever handled
that tube. I tell you, some one was
watching her from the shrubbery out
side. She went down to the lodge and
he saw his chance and slipped IN, un-
corked the tube, crushed some tab
lets of morphine to powder and put
them into the top sandwich. He never
noticed that he'd torn a bit off the
label of the tube and that it had
fluttered down the crack He hurried
away, started up his car and went off
again"
Poirot sighed. "And still you do not
see! 1t is extraordinary how dense an
intelligent man can be-"
Peter Lord demanded angrily: "Do
you mean to say that you don't be-
Heve some one stood in those bushes
watching this Window"
POirot said: eyes, 1 believe that :"

"Then We've got to find whoever
it was!"
Poirot murmured: I'VE shall not
have to look far, I fancy"
do you mean you know ?'
II have a very shrewd idea"
Peter Lord said slowly: "Then your
minions who made inquiries IN Ger
many did bring YOU something 3"
Hercule Poirot said, tapping his
forehead: my friend, it is all here,
in my head Come, let us look over
the house"
They stood at last in the room
where Mary Gerard had died.
The house had strange atmos-
pbere in it: it seemed alive with mem
cries and forebodings. Peter Lord
flung up one of the windows. He said
with a slight SILVER: This place feels
like a tomb
Poirot said; IF walls could speak
It is all here, is it not, here in the
house the beginning Of the whole
story" He paused and then said
softly: 1T was here in this room that
Mary Gerard died"
Peter Lord said: "They found her
sitting in that chair by the window I"
Hercule Poirot said thoughtfully:
"a young girl-beautiful-romantic?
Did she scheme and intrigue? Was
she superior person who gave her
self airs? Was she gentle and sweet,

ruSned over.
Poirot said softly: Then it would
seem, my friend, that we have come
upon something tangible at last"
Peter Lord said: "Some one was
here that morning some one who was
not Elinor Carlisle, nor Mary Ger
rard, nor Nurse Hopkins
Poirot said: This is very interest
ing. Come, let us make our investiga-
tions. Let us see, for instance, sup
posing a man Cor woman) We're to
wish to approach the house unseent
how they would set about it q"
Halfway along the drive q path
branched off through some shrub
berry. They took this and at a certain
turn in it Peter Lord clutched Poi
rot's arm, pointing to a window. He
said That's the window of the pan
try where Elinor Carlisle was cutting
the sandwiches"
Poirot murmured: "And from here,
any one could see her cutting them.
The window was open, if 1 remem-
Der rightly?"
Peter Lord said: "It was wide open.
1t was a hot day, remember"
Hercule Poirot said musingly:
Then if any one wished to watch I'M
seen what was going on, somewhere
about here would be a good spot"
The two men cast about. Peter Lord
said: There's a place here-behind
these bushes. Some stuff's been tram
pied down here. It's grown up again
now, but you can see plainly enough"
Poirot joined him. He said thought
fully: eyes, this is a good place. 1t
is concealed from the path, and that
opening in the shrubs gives one a
good view of the window. Now, what
did he do, our friend who stood here?
Did he perhaps smoker"
They bent down, examining the
ground and pushing aside the leaves
and branches. Suddenly Hercule Poi
rot uttered grunt.
Peter Lord Strengthened up from
his own search. "What is it,"
"a matchbox, my friend. An emp
ty matchbox, trodden heavily into
the ground, sodden and decayed."
With care and delicacy he salvaged
the object. He displayed it at last on
a chaaf Of nOtananaT. taken from his
pocket.
Peter Lord said: "It's foreign. By
Jove, German matches!"
Hercule Poirot said: "And Mary
Gerard had recently come from Ger
many"
Peter Lord said exultantly: "We've
got something now! You can't deny
it."

"Good-morning, Horlick. This is
Horlick. This is Horlick, the gardener
Poirot. He was working here that
morning"
Horlick said: Eyes, sir, was.
saw Miss Elinor that morning and
talked to her"
Poirot asked: "What did she say
to you?"
''She told me the house was as good
as sold, and that rather took me a
back, sir; but Miss Elinor said as how
she'd speak for me to Major Somer-
veil, and that maybe he'd keep me on
if he didn't think me too young
perhaps as head-seeing as how I'd
had good training under Mr.. Stephens
here"
DR.. Lord said: Did she seem much
the same as usual, Horlick?"
"Why, yes, sir, except that she
looked a bit excited like-and as
though she had something on her
mind"
did you know Mary Gerard %
Poirot asked Horlick, the gardener.
"Oh, yes, sir. But not very we'll"
Poirot said: what was she like 2"
Horlick looked puzzled. Like, sir?
Do you mean to look at?"
mot exactly. l mean, what kind
of girl was she?"
ooh, well, sir, she was very SUI
perior sort of girl. Nice spoken and
all that. Thought lot of herself, l
should say. You see, old Mrs. Welman
had made a lot of fuss over her. Made
her father wild, that did. He was like
a bear with a sore head about il"
Poirot said: "By all that I've heard
he had not the best of tempers, that
old one?"
"No, indeed, he hadn't. Always
grumbling, and crusty as they make
them. Seldom had civil word for
you"
Poirot said: "You were here on
that morning. Whereabouts were you
working?"
Mostly in the kitchen garden, sir"
"You cannot see the house from
there?"
"No, sir"
Peter Lord said: "If anybody had
come up to the house-up to the pam
try window-you wouldn't have seen
them?"
mo, 1 wouldn't, sir"
Peter Lord said: "When did you go
to your dinner?"
zone o'clock, sir"
"And you didn't see anything-any
man hanging about-or car outside
anything like that?"
The mans eyebrows rose in slight
surprise. "Outside the back gate, sir ?
There was your car there-nobody
else's."
Peter Lord cried: "My car? 1t
wasn't my car! 1 was over Withen-
bury direction that morning. Didn't
get back till after two!"
Horlick looked puzzled. 81 made
sure it was your car, sir" he said
doubtfully.
Peter Lord said quickly: "Oh, well,
it doesn't matter. Good-morning, Hor-
lick
He and Poirot moved on. Horlick
stared after them for minute or two
then slowly resumed his progress
with the wheelbarrow.
Peter Lord said softly-but with
great excitement: "Something-at
last. Whose car was it standing in
the lane that morning?"
Poirot said: "What make is your
car, my friend?"
"a Ford green. They're
pretty common, of course"
"And you are sure that it was not
yours? You haven't mistaken the
day."
Absolutely certain. 1 was over at

 Tn considering possible changes in credit policies 1t must, of course. be borne in mind that a certain loss ratio for bad debts Is likely to parallel sales volume and that the extra profits possible from high production and sales levels have, in the past, often been counterbalanc- ing offsets as against bad debt losses.
 "Then, too, there have been the credits for such losses in income tax payment, and these have often re- turned fifty per cent of the actual losses. But with many lines of pro- duction curbed at the present time, reconsideration of so-called desir- able loss ratios is in order in view of possible declines in non-war sales volume.
