SYNOPSIS Rus Hatttrick married tb« aotod surgeon, Rruls Hutturick. t*n months after ths d«atb of hi* hrst vrlf*, Crystal. Rm had nursed Crystal in h*t fatal illtwaa. Ths marriage is pistonic, Bruls having told Rm tranhly that ths rsamm ha wantod her for his wit* was haemu of his IS-yssr-old daughter. Madgt. Ths lattar manta Rm, but Rm has a staunch ally in Staven Henlrie, Crystal's step-brother and well known compaoet Th* night of her social debut. Rm is disappointed when Bruit send* hie aMlatsnt and protege. Dr. Andrew Crittenden, to escort her to the opera In hie place. Andy Meme surprised to Me Alicia Pelham, Steven’s fiancee and Crystal's best friend, at the opera. He etuns Rue With the announcement: “They believe Crystal wa* murdered ’I Someone had written the police, suggesting that they iUVMtigate her death Rue is suspected, of coutm. Andy say* poison was the only explanation of her death. He takes Rue to a nearby drugstore for a Mdative. As they emerge, they Me Alicia entering Brule's coupe St the theatre entrance, but Rm believes they must be mistaken Andy trofesses hie love for Rm and begs er to go awey with him Rm repulses him, saying she did not commit murder and will not leave Brule. Arriving home. Rue finds Detective Miller and Funk waiting to question her. It was when she wm asked if she had given Crystal any drugs that Rut remembered a significant incident which she does not disclose to th* police. She had given Crystal the medicine which Juliet Carder, the day nurse, had prepared and left on the table. When she took it. Crystal noted its bitterness, saying "Andy must have changed my medicine today." After the detective* go, Andy take* hi* leave, warning Rue to My nothing Brule arrive* home at 1:30, tired and wan. He telle Rue he con- < Muted to the eahumation of Cry*-, tol l body and they will soon know th* truth. CHAPTER NINE Rm said: “Is It true? Was she —murdered?” Brule eould be cither brutally di-; rect or neatly, coolly evasive; she, had seeo him in both moods. He looked at her, now, speculatively. • What did Andy tell you?” “Andy didn’t find you, then? When he left here he said he was going to see you.” Brule looked at the glass he held. Upped it a little and Mid: "I haven't seen Andy since about six. I take it he told you the main points.” "He told me about the letter*, about the police coming to your office. They were here tonight." “Tonight!” It startled him; *bs eould see that by the way his *y«a narrowed and lighted and the way his mouth xtruigfatem-d itself under his mustache. Hr added after a moment: “What did they want? Did they question you? What did they ask you?" She told him swiftly, word for word as near a* she could remember them. When the came to her memory of the mediein* she faltered But Brule extracted it quiekly. "Did you tell them you had given her the last dose of medicine?” . “No—that is, Andy Mid that naturally I had given it to her and that he had prescribed it." “And did you give it to her?" •Tea." "You remember it distinctly? 4 "Ye*. Yea, 1 do." -WThy?" "Because—became she Mid it wa* bitter. And then she drank it." She had meant to question him. She etill meant to. But be wm questioning her. "DU you tell th* police thatF "No. No. 1 didn't" "Why?” be mked again, watching her. “ih-caui* 1--Brale, you must tell to*, was aha murdered?” For a moment ah* thought he in-

tended to evade again, bat bo didn't. Inatoad he put the wnall giaoa de liberately down on the mantel and turned sternly back to her again. “You want th* troth, don't you, Roa? Wefi ttMto-1 don't know." "But—but tobat do you think? What are w* going to do? What " "Nothing There's nothing we can doauw.* "Do you mean " "I mean only that. There’* nothii< we eaa de. Them things take . tMt*; perhap* iheyll never dterover anything that lend* credence to . t heir notion Any kind of chemical , saalyni* after so long a time has

passed is diMeult. Vnleaa, of course, they know what to look for; but you can’t just fumble in the dark; different poison* show their presence by different and varying teats. Unless the poliee doctor* know whet to I look for, and 1 take it so far they ,i do not know, it will be difficult—it ; may even prove impossible to find I I and prove the pretence of any partieular chemical in a lethal quan- , tity. The thing to do I* rit tight. Go - on with your mm! routine. I won't say f<-rget ft—" I "Andy thinks she wa* murdered.” ■ Brule'* rye* were bright, dark, f altogether enigmatic. r “Tee, I know.” "Do you think *oF I “I don't know. Rue. I've told yon r that When she died I did think once of suicide. But I saw no reason for r publicising that—speculation And r I had no very good reason* for it. ■ Except— well, you were there when . aha died. Yeo know bow um xpected it was." I "Who eould have killed her?” "Again, I don't know. It doesn’t - seem very likely that she was mur- ; dered I don't think the police will ever be able to prove anything." “Who wrote thore letters? It must be someone who knows something of her death -and the truth of it." Brule lifted hia eyebrow. “Or someone who wants to make : trouble. I don't know who wrote them. But when the tumult and i shouting have died down for lack of rvidenee, I Intend to find out." When that look was in Brule's face the nureee at the hospital cowered. It waa only something cold • and dark in bis eyes and a kind of tight look around the clean line of his jaw. But Rm knew it well. She said: “There must be something we can do—• Aw—w—i■■■ ■ i ii —. to. ss*MM~-

•Believe me, my dear, there* nothing Did Andy take you to the opera r’ "I—couldn't »toy. He told me after w* arrived. Wo went away. AHria wa* there She left Just be for* w* got In th* ear. We went into a drugstore, and when we came out w* saw her leaving.” "Did you? Well. Rm— l'm off to "But ..." Mis aworance baffle*! - her; yet he was right, too. Whs’ could they do that night? > "Andy said you were trying to I pull wires " i| “Oh 111 do what I can. Guy a

' coming in tomorrow. 11l talk to him just in earn*. Don't let this worry you too much. Rue. 11l see to it the police don't bother you; Guy will cook up some kind of protection for you. After all. they have no proof of anything. And they'll probably never have proof." "But if the was murdered—" -We!!*" "Oughtn't we —do something? > Tell the police-" I "Why*" “Why. because it’s right. Be- • ■•» “Crystal's dead. Madge ia very much alive and young. You are, too. Rue, and you are my wife. Steven ia frail and horribly sensitive, and i Ms mueie ia at no eman value. 1 1 myself have my—email importance j • in the world. Andy was het attendI ing physician, and he's just entered . upon what promises to be a brilliant i career. Why ruin five liven? .. . I Yon don't know, Rue. what a mur» der inquiry is. . . . Now, my child, go to bed." He went to her and put hie hand -for a moment under her chin and I looked down at her, smiling a little. “You'll have weathered many thing* : by the time you reach my age. How ’ old are you, Rue? Twenty-five ..." "Twenty -six." "I'm clone to forty. I've worked i bard. I've learned, I think, In a ■ hard tehool to control emotiuna I “You—" she stopped abruptly, ’ checked by the hard directness of hie eyes. i “You were about to oay I have no ' emotion*. Won't that it? Well, I that ia as may be. Co to bed. It’a ' eoid here. Hl have another drink ' before Igo up." i (To be continued) CwritM V» M«m* a teMSMI Bmokwu »> awe > in mevi fas a... . —
