■r i — CHAPTER THIRTY-FpUR I AMES suddenly struck the table I with the flat of his hand* turned i away and sat down in his chair before the Are. He clenched the ; hand and spoke hurriedly, 4n a thin, Angry, voice, “God Almighty, the women the Coldfield men marry and cherish—the unspeakable women they bring into this house! you know Serene’s quality now. My mother, poor lady, was colorless. But this—this—” he glanced . at the envelope on the table and looked away—“t h1 s perhaps excuses me for wondering at the time whether Glendon’s wife wasn’t another of our strange women, bent on disgracing us. Can you— he looked at Gamadge pleadingly—“cah' you unjderstand why 1 wasn’t quite fair to her when she came to me. with that story ? I’d seen those ' Garthwain letters, and then when I , looked into the box after 1 read that Quarterly article,: they were gone. 1 don’t mean I thought she’d ’ taken them. No indeed.’* ; “I suppose you couldn’t bring yourself to destroy them when you first found them?” , "Couldn’t, simply l coi|dd|n't; a* a man of letters, you know," said Art®, ■ \ I “It was a reshonaibllity.” “Vandalism—l couldn't bring myself to it. What I feeply tried to pvrauade myself was that Susan would inherit them, and throw piem |out unread—unsound-—as rubhiHii, At least the naapnnsilillity Wouldn't he mine. I left It to dastiny- put destiny never manages tilings as we fureson, Well, whan •neat 11 looked for them ihpy were gone, |as I Midi find having read the nr|U?le, I knew where,'r ••Anti you couldn't gfiesi at the agent?" Amea struck the table again, knows what friends a woman like tliat picks up, or where she firnin thvni ? Hjhr’a afwnvA at my poor brother forjnoney, yoti know; on whom does she spend it ? 1 dare say she’d find good use for the proceeds lof, this sale. I UonT know what Serene's honor brought in the market.’’ I • \ “Ten thousand." Ames put his head hack'to stare.. "Ten thousand! Well, that’s high. I Imagine that Garthwain wouldn't think so." ; “It would have been more with the envelopes.” . .. •That— ’* Ames pointed to the blue envelope again—“yoU mean it’s at my disposal ?" T “Unless you feel the, heed of it as evidence.",. . 1 ' '.| “But what kind of evidence do 1 ne,ed, more than I have?? Gamadge sat down th the other chair. He asked, “Mr. Coldfield, do you really mean that you never realized until last night. While we were talking, the possible truth in Sylvia Coldfield's story?” Ames didn’t answer; his jaw sagged a little, his fingers played with the blue envelope, thalt idiotic stare had come back into bis eyes. TYour brother knew aljl about th4 Garthwain letters.” said Gamadge. “He’d read them, he’d left them, he read the article in the Quarterly and went and looked for them again. They were gone, and he knew where too. But he, had evidjence against the thief, and later ho had proof. Do you remember. that fingerprinting outfit?” Ames nodded vaguely. “There are no prints on that nqw" ksald Gamadge, indicating the bit*© envelope. “It's had care-

Ames stammered, “Last flight .1 —but I cast it out of my mind. Fantastic." | 'r ' “So your sister-in-law, Glendon’s widow, thought. But when she thought so, she didn’t know about the Garthwain letters.” Ames suddenly got to his feetHe said faintly, “I must have some brandy. 1. . .” he went to the cupboard, and came back with the decanter and two of the little glasses. Hjs hands were trembling. He filled the glasses, sat down and began, to sip ■at his own drink. After a minute he cleared his throat, and said more loudly, "Motive, yea No proof now." “But evidence—lots of Evidence. Don't you want- to hear what it is ?" Gamadge, his elbow on the table, was leaning towards him. "Your brother’s widow won’t use it: but don’t you think, the rest of you ought to know that there's a poisoner under your roof? Do you think that with such a murderer there may never be a next time? And the next time you might have police in the house —and the y'd search more than th® attics." “Allies ?" ' "Mr.\ Coldfield, last night ZNmn Hmyth tried to open a trunk; your brother Ira's wife said it was full of old things, and that it was lock® ed. This afternndn I unlocked l|» It isn't full of old things It's full of valuable furs and dream, thing! that Agnes didn’t recognise; They rout nearly ton thouNsnd dollars, <>i I'm much tnmtalum " Ahiea said, hie voire quivering, "ihe'e mad for dreaa." .‘•Blit what opportunity would your brother's wife have tor wearing those thlnga?” Gamadge lanuied. "You're an iniolHgont man, Mr. Ctfidfield. Think, Don’t blind yourself through prejudice HOw could she ilo it without yot|r brothers knowledge?” He oat back Slowly. "It was the agrrit that interested, me from the first, you know." • Ames nodded again, still vaguely. “1 didn’t see any other approach," said Gamadge. “ts 1 followed up your lead about Myers and the Licker information you wanted, was purely from a sense of duty—Mr. Salmon didn’t seem a liktely prospect to me. o The agent of course had to be a man of standing and reputation, apparently good for the ten thousand dollar guarantee, or those English people wouldn’t have listened to him; but what man of standing and reputation would take such • risk? No matter how safe the agent felt, there is always a riskand it was ruin for him If some-i thing went wrong. Did he need money,? Nonsense; Such a man wouldn’t do a thing of that kind for the whole ten thousand, or half of it, or any commission you care to name. No, something else came into that deal. Why did his principal trust him 40 absolutely ? Why did he violate all business and personal standards of honor? I thought he’d behaved like a man in love. “But even a man in love wouldn't presumably act unless !he felt safe, and he wouldn’t have felt safe unless ths Garthwain deal was protected by family sentiment. The principal in this affair would in case of trouble be protected by the

When writing a dote to decline an invitation, should on° make it formal? A. This depends upon the nature of the invitation. If it is written formally, that is, in the third person, then your reply must be written in the formal style. If the invitation .is written informally, then you'reply in the same vein. Q. May one ever use the fork for eating a double-decker sandwich? , A. Not if it Is of the' "closed sandwich’’ variety. It should be eaten with the fingers. If it is an “open”, sandwich, then the fork 18 used. Q. When "cutting in" at a dam e, should a man lay his hand upon tba girl’s shoulder or arm? ' A. No; he should touch her partner’s shovldec and ask pleas-' 1 c.Utly, "May I cut ( in"? Motorist Arrested j Pn Traffic Charge liwrnr, Fell 15.

He couldn't have afforded therefore to pay back the ten thousand himself; was he less prosperous than he seemed.” “Os all the family friends 1 had heard of, Venner seemed least unlikely to fill my requirements. He Was comparatively young, therefore perhaps comparatively adventurous. His business is not so stabilizing as some others, he might still be riding on his father’s reputation. He knew the Coldflelds, whlat they’re like and what they’d do |tn certain circumstances. He’s unattached, has only himself to think of; he and his father before him must have had long-standing relations with English men of business, And they'd often need the services qt a solicitor. He’s extremely good-looking; a love affair wasn’t by any means unthinkable. I've Seen him, Mr. Coldfield—he's a r i of experience and a very att ve one.” Anics mumbled something "lie doesn't deny it," said Gamadge. "HP's our man. Mr. Coldfir'd, you’re a man of experience tuo. Would Vennei he likely to underwrite a deal In stolen goods for love <>t a ihlddle-aged married woman, whn'n (losing her figure and her looks and h«a nothing to give him hut herself?

Mr, Goldfield—l’m trying id prepare you." Amps moved his shoulders in • gwdtito of refusal. "L-ot’s imagine." said (larmulge, "that V»mner swung the deal for a young ’giri who had fa Urn violently in love with a moat eligible young mao The competition must havo bccn gruelling no doubt she was as far out of hie financial class ns Zclmn Smyth was out of hers. She must go on visits, go to important parties, travel, keep herself tn tits eye. He was young, \ and she knew how likely his affections were to wander." There was a shrinking motion of Ames' shoulders. “Her father couldn’t give her the really large sums she needed,” continued Gamadge. “but she chanced uflon a. way to help herself—with the help of a friend. She bought what she wanted, and she rentpd a place in New York to keep/the things tn. to change in—perhaps to meet the friend in ? But She soon threw him over, and what could he do about it without implicating himself ? “She got her man. She could manage now without the new clothes, and she would be glad to get rid of the expense of her room in New York. That trunk was never opened—she got the things up here and packed them away until she could smuggle them out somehow with her trousseau when she was married. After that, whe would question her possession of them?” \ ■ Ames was shaking his head, more as if in despair than in negation. His hands gripped the arms ot his chair, his eyes were fixed on the fire. ’ (To Be Vontlnued)
