A bill has been Introduced in the legislature providing for ai tourWay split of the tax. which now entitely. goes to the state’s general fund. However, the biennium budget lacks 828,400,000 of balancing, so there ap- . pears little chance of a ' share of the three cents charged on every pack. v .

Mrs. Ira got a cigaret out ot a gold oox ana nervously held it tor her nusbana to light. She said, “i don’t Know wnat .you mean—adjustment. Surely she hasn’t the nerve to expect damages, or some- '! thing?" \< ! ' i ' Susan said, “Oh, Mother," and turned ner nead away. “Don’t “let such sVorda sully the air," oeggea Ames, laughing,' but Gamadge wasn’t laughing. He said, I ’’She’s quite safe now, ot course, I and with triends who can protect r.er physically; out sne'd like an assurance that Insanity won’t at any time tn the future be imputed ' to her.* "We deserve that," said Susan. “But why on earth,” asked Mra Ira pettishly, "shpuld there be any question of such a thing now, since She’s to her senses?" "Or at least we nope; so," grumbled .Ira. "We hope thtere’U be no relapse." "Oh stuff and nonsense," said Ames. "By I via was in a wroughtup state, that’s aIL And m any case, She's out ot our nands."

Mrs. Glendon nas withdrawn ner statements, ; Miss Beal. Apparently she’s responsible again. That's aIL" Miss Beal, looking squarely at Gamadge, said sdapply, "It ~ isn’t aIL 1 want you to know i never thought she ; was crazy, and 1 never knew what statements she’d made. These people wouldn’t believe it, but she didn't talk. 1 say she never would have talked. But it wasn't my business —1 was paid to take care ot ner and keep ner from annoying people writing letters and on the telephone, and a nurse does what the’ doctor says. Lt she don’t, she’s blacklisted wjth the agencies and the hospitals" Ames said sweetly, “This comes a little late. Miss Beal, but we’re delighted to hear it.

Susah’s voice cut sharply across ■ these plaintive words, “Don’t include me.

No experience, no judgment, nothing but a lb! of Old School sentiment. ’Jimmie wouldn't think this.

They've talked enough about all tpose future splendid trusts. Are yo« erfixy?” 1 fl' don't think Sylvia was, Just because she forgot she'd taken those capsules." So here was somebody stepping up to the danger lino as if it weren't even therel At lastl And, by Jove, thought Gamadge, stepping over It. “Mr. Gamadge," askod Susan, "bow did you ever persuade Sylvia to remember?" Through the stillness tn the ropm Gamadge copld bear the rain (against the windows—oven through th# thick glass and the drawn velvet o” the curtains. He put out his cigaret. “Well, 1 didn’t," he said. *1 Juat persuaded ner that it’s a very unusual thing—that sort of mama breaking out tn a family without any premonitory signals, and nothing whatever in past history t* account for it." Thia Ude of discussion was broken by Ira Cpldfield. He suddenly dapped his bands on his knees, got up as if he had come to a decision, and walked over to _ the fireplace. "Mr? Gamadge," he said, “I feel that on the whole we’ve been very fortunate." Gamadge looked Inquiring. i “You put an end to an impossible situation," Ira went on in a friehdiy tone. "If your methods were unorthodox—" "They had to be," said Gamadge cheerfully, “to match yours." "I know, I know," said Ira, “it ' looks brutal now. But how do you think we felt—while it was going on? It wore us all down, if Sylvia was prisoner, so were we—terrible state of anxiety." “But was it comparable to hers?" “She might have known us well efiough to know that nothing very terrible was impending. After all she only suspected one of us of beuig a lunatic. You're welcome td hbar exactly what we were arranging, and 1 may . assure you that everybody -was kind and frjehdly to her—Smyth was most kind. He couldn’t be anything else.

CHAPTER TVfKNTT “MR. COLDFIELD," asked Gamadge gently, “have you ever been subject to physical coercion?" “She had only to withdraw her statement, and sh« has withdrawn Lt." 1 Gamadge looked at him quietly, then he turned to look at the others. His eyes remained on Mra. Coldfield. "She was told," he said, "that it was too late to withdraw her statement." , "Mr. Gamadge," said Ira, “oould we have believed after her original obstinate behavior about it that she meant what she said? Just try to believe me now, and assume that we were all acting in good faith." “Glad to assume it," saifi Gamadge, “for the sake of argument." “Well, yon ought to know what we were trying to do about my sister-in-law. There's a non-judi-cial procedure in these cases, as Smyth found out for us: and It's a good thingy too—saves the patient embarrassment and distress of mind. No going into court, no publicity," “Nicer for the reLatlveO, too,” said Gamadge. "Yes," agreed Ira shortly, "nicer for the relatives—for everybody concerned. By that procedure, which is abefitutely legal, a pa* tlent can be committed on petition ot a relative or friend, and the certlficatfi ot one reputable phy'ictan. But—here's the hitch, if the relative wasn’t acting In good faith — committed for only thirty days."’ \ Gamadge said. That's a good law. Ot course a period of thirty days tn some kinds of proprietary E"-«pital might settle the question the patient's sanity for all time/* e added, "But 1 was to assume that you were acting in good faith." j J ■ “And so was Smyth," said Ira violently. “He was looking into the whole thing most carefully; 1 should have gone to the place myself. And he wanted■" T khow." Tou might tell Sylvia. No use talking to her here —she wouldn't I even listen." “She, didn't dare listen. She was bending all her faculties to the job of keeping calm. Try it sometime, Mr. Coldfield—try living in those conditions, with a nurse watching to see whether you won’t f show even normal reactions to them." “But you won’t look at our point of view." "I’m looking at IL The situation was tough all round." He rose, and looked at Mrs. Coldfield ‘Tc better be getting back to New York—if 1 might have that luggage to put in the car?" She had been watching him narrowly during the Last few minutes ’ Now, her face cleared of. everything but polite concern, she got uo too. “Mr. Gamadxe. it’s bout

Susan said, “Your voice was quite different. Os course you’d be married." “Why not?" "All the nicest are married, and it makes them a little dull." "Isn't Mr. Watertan nice ? And | will marrying you make him dull ?" < "He’s a little dull already.” She laughed. "It’s part of his charm. It's the way I like him." "You’re in love with that character," said Gamadge, studying > I her. “Crazy about him." < “So 1 am. Mr. Gamadge, Sylvia never said anything about you or your wife—being her friends." "Miss Coldfield, there are many pleasant things about you, and one ■’ of the things 1 find most encouraging is that you ask questions. , Do you realize that you’re the only member of your family that asks questions?" They're afraid to—you scare them. Mr. Gamadge, do try to remember that they're principally scared on my account.” “Your Uncle Ames, too?" I "With Uncle Ames it’s family, all family.

Does being a writer make it all right to come in by the back door and deceive the cook? By the way, I'm sorry about that. I wish you’d tell her sometime that it’s the only thing 1 do regret." "I’ll tell her, but she still thinks you’re a nice gentleman. You know how they are—’Some mistake; be was a nice gentleman.*" Tell her I am a nice gentleman." “She’ll soon know all about it.
