 One of the packages, she knew held an evening gown that had required some minor Talterations; she unwrapped it quickly ano tried it on.
 It proved to be bad move The last time she had worn even- ing clothes had been the night when she'd dressed up. so confi- dently, so happily, to lay hel present at Martins feet; she hadn't worn them since. Imme- diately memories rushed in, scald- ing her. She tried to escape from the pain of the past by looking ahead; she faced resolutely a fu- ture that promised to be, if not dull, rather on the drab side
 She became aware with some thing like relief that for some minutes the doorbell had been pealing insistently in the back of the house downstairs; she heard the door open finally and mans footsteps proving about. She opened her door to investigate.

 Candace guessed that her action had really been a relief to Bruce. He had managed afterward. by dint of turning over life insurance and all other available funds, to satisfy all of his creditors; he had come out of the thing with honor, if with nothing else.
 Father and son were alike as two peas in a pod, Candace thought with impatient admira- tion, Bruce giving up everything for the sake of g scruple, Peter slaving for no money and but little thanks. Impractical idealists. both of them. They need someone to take care of them. Maybe this girl Peter was marrying would be the one to do it.
 An uneasy thought struck her. Bruce was happy here, she knew, he felt himself to be needed and useful. What if this strange girl were to find him in the way? She knew that Peter himeslf looked on his fathers stroke in the na- ture of ai blessing, it was lever he had made use of to pry Bruce loose from a hopeless situation, losing fight against insurmount- able odds; but what if his wife were to resent having him about, half-invalid who might at any time become a heavy burden?
 Consumed with curiosity about the girl, Candace had planned to ask at the first opportunity, What about this gal Petes marrying? Will I be able to o. k. her?" Cas- ually. As though it didn't matter.
 Now, she found, she could not. She was afraid that she might somehow convey her uneasiness to Bruce; and she didn't want to be the one to make him feel inse- cure, possibly unwanted.
 She became anxious to leave be- fore she herself might somehow blunder into the subject, or Bruce could bring 1t up. As soon after lunch as she decently could she said briskly, T can't wait around any longer on the chance of seeing Peter. I'm afraid. I have an awful lot to do."
 Hell be disappointed he missed you," Bruce said. Lord knows you get over here seldom enough. Can't you run in some evening this Week?"

UNCLE BRUCE AGAIN CHAPTER XXIII


 She found herself reluctant to see Peter and his father before she left. Peter had trick, born prob- ably of long association and under standing, of seeing through her; and she had a feeling that this Harper affair would not bear too much inspection, would make her appear to advantage in his eyes.
 She would make no mention of anything but the old lady, of course, and would trust to luck that he had never heard of the grandson or would attach no sig niflcance to his going along with them if he had; but she would have preferred not to have to say anything of 1t at all.
 She rode a bus over to the modest little flat on Henley street with the neat sign in its front window, PETER FRAZIER, M. D., where Bruce now lived with Peter. After she rang the bell she could hear Bruce's footfall. first . firm step and then dragging one that was the aftermath of the recent stroke that had partly paralyzed his left side.

What I was just about to. tell
you when we were cut off," he in
formed the sheriff, was that the
poison had entered Jarvis Thorpe's
body through two small scratches
on his leg"
That" said John Hazard, who
believed in giving credit where it
was due, is what my deputy has
already discovered. If you want

De Crevecoeur's Letters from an
American Farmer" She had been
quite truthful In saying that early
American literature fascinated her.
And the incident Of the rattlesnake
was so unusual that 1t had remained
fixed In her memory. Now, as she
looked at the sleeping rattler, she
saw a solution to her problems.
She had been able to secure Jar
Wis Thorpe's riding boots from his
room without detection. Then, from
q safe position on the other side of
the wall, she had dangled the boots
In front of the rattler and with
long stick had provoked it to at
tack.
Just as had happened on the oc-
casion recorded by De Crevecoeur,

the fangs Of the snake had remained
embedded In the leather. And when
Jarvis Thorpe had pulled OF his
boots after his first ride on his re-
turn to Torrington he had been
fatally poisoned.
1t was Mrs. Shelby, too. who had
left Noel Moffat's silver pencil in
Jarvis Thorpe's room. She herself
had taken the luncheon tray up to
the hysterical girl. 1t had been an
easy enough matter to take the
pencil and to leave 1t where 1t
would throw suspicion on an inno-
cent person.

Sheriff Hazard nodded. "Wether-

there" he said.
For 1t was Mr.. Wetherfether, who
at that moment was keeping guard
over his prisoner, whose skillful
questioning had elected the rest Of
the story from Mrs. Shelby.
On the last day of the Thorpes'

brooding over her troubles, had

1t bad for his mental health to be

with me and mentioned something
about changing his will. That must
have been what finally determined
Mrs. Shelby on her course of ac-

tremely generous legacy under the
terms Of his former will, and she
was probably afraid that under
the new one she would not fare 20
