BEGIN HERE TODAY Mateo, m Finley. returning from Japan, is Invited to Flower Acre*, the Long Island home of Douglas Raynor, husband of Nancy who ts a former sweetheart of Finley's. Finley discovers that Raynor is tyrannizing over Nancy and is incensed. At Flower Acres are Ezra Goddard, friend of Finley; Nancy, her devoted brother. Orville Kent: Douglas Raynor; Raynor's sister. Miss Mattie, and others. ti-nley realizes that he is reearded with suspicion by Raynor and Miss Mattie because of his old love affair with Nancy. This—and the constant abuse Raynor heaps upon his wife —angers Finley extremely. Raynor overhears a conversation between Finley and Nancy and orders Finley to leave the house "I promise that if you will remove your preserc-e I will at once transform myself into the most gentle, loving and kind-tempered of husbands." he sneers MOW GO ON WITH THE STORY "‘You can never say another word to me of any sort whatever!”' And in a fury Finley left them. He was sure ha hail made a fool of himself. Sure he had harmed N'an rather than helped her. Finley went to his room, hut he did not at once begin to pack his things;. He sat down hy a window and gazed out over the flowers, to the sea and sky. and let his thoughts grow calmer and more practical. Was there no way he could help N’an? Xo task would be too hard, no service too difficult, if he could but make up for the trouble and an noyance he had caused her. For ne had small doubt but that Raynor would wreak on his wife the anger he must feel toward himself. Finley. A long time lie thought and sighed as he pondered. And then. Instead of packing his kit and starting for the train, he bathed and dressed and presented himself on the western terrace just as tea was being brought there. Finley did not look at his host or speak to him. but there were

present most of the family, and a few neighbors, this omiseion was not noticed. “Oh. yes. then you may," she beamed. "After I pass the buns we’ll talk it over." Finley had seated himself, not near Xan, but where he could watch her. In fact, he was beside Miss Mattie, who was more than ready to entertain him. / And it was during one of her long and rambling discourses that Finley, watching Xan, again saw that quick. furtive motion as of dropping something in Raynor's teacup. "Saccharine, sure," he thought. “She can fool him then." he thought. "Rut seems to me she could fool hint oftener and better than she does." Tea over, they lingered on the terrace. Another gorgeous sunset W's under way. "Rarely does that old sun get a chance to sink to rest in such a bed of beauty,” said Kva Turner, who was always loquacious at tea time. “There she goes,” cried Dolly, as the last of the great flaming disk dropped out of sight. “And I must go. too, or mother will blow me up STOMACH UPSET?

sky-high. Who'll walk to the bridge with me?" *‘l will,” said Orry, who was a born cavalier, and likewise fond of gay little Dolly. But they tarried until the other ' guests had taken leave and then, as they sauntered across the lawn, down toward the fridge over the 1 tiny brook that sefferated the two estates, the sinister dusk was creeping 1 In from the darkening horizon. ‘ I'm jealous of your other Prince," Kent bantered, and Dolly said, serii ously, "lie isn't really mine, he's i Nan's.” "Nonsense! What has Nan to do i with Princes?" j "Oh, it doesn't matter that she's 1 married to that old hobgoblin. I mean that can't stop her loving her Prince." ; “Don't, Dolly; it isn't nice for a ; little girl to say things like that." “Nice or not —it's true talk. You see. Nan ought to have married Mr. | Finley in the first place." "Hush. Dolly,” Kent spoke sternly. “Nan's my sister, and I forbid 1 you to gossip about her.” “All right. Orry, I won’t. Miss Mattie isn't your sister, is she? May I tolk about her?” “Yes. if you like." and the young man smiled. "Well, she's a meddlesome Mattie. What do you s-pose she's doing now? She's lookitig down here at us." The two wer< on the bridge now. the little rustic affair that added picturesqueness to the scene. Dolly had turned and was looking back toward the house. ‘ What sharp eves you have." Kent said. looking, too. "I can scarcely see her. The dark comes quickly.” I "Yes." Dolly looked at her wrist-

watch. "It's just 7 o'clock. I must run. Good-by, Orry." “Good-by," Kent said, looking at his own watch, and starting off toward the house. Meddlesome Mattie had been look ins nut her window ar the two stroll ing across the lawn, but there was 1 no more to it than idle curiosly. It was her habit to watch everything: and everybody, in hope of learning something she wa not ; meant to know. From her own room, with the win ! dows all open, she had heard 1-er i brother leave the terrace and go ir.to ; the sun parlor—that was doubtless i to avoid the dampness. She had heard Malcolm Finley, at the same time, leave the terrace and go into the house, walking through the rear hall, arid out. on the east veranda. She had listened intently hut didn't hear Xan follow him —a distinct disappointment to Miss Mattie. Mr. Goddard, she knew, was in his own room. And Eva Turner was hustling about, now in her bedroom, then on the stairs, then to the kitchen and back again—of course, intent upon her dietary duties. Despairing of any further sounds of Interest, Miss Mattie snapped on her lights and looked at her clock. It was five minutes to seven then, time to begin to dress for dinner. And then, though not listening in tently. Miss Mattie's ears were startled by the sound of a single shot. Indeed, at first she didn't resog nize it as a shot. So often a supposed shot had been a blow-out or a hurst tire, that now. when It was really a shot, she naturally thought it something else. For a moment no sounds followed, and then various light footsteps could be heard be low. Still unthinking of tragedy. Miss Mattie stepped out into the hall, and though hall and stairs were as yet unlighted, she felt her way to the banister rail and started slowly down the stairs. When half way down she could discern a white figure standing in the door between the hall and the sun parlor, hut as she went on. the figure which she knew to be that of Eva Turner went through the doorway and the next instant the lights of the sun parlor re flashed on. Miss Mattie scurried the rest of the way down and peered through the hall door Into the sunroom. On the floor lay her brother in an ungainly heap, near him stood Malcolm Finley, an automatic pistol in his hand, and by the door, her hand still on the switch light, stood Eva Turner. She was not looking at Finley, but in the opposite direction, toward the west door of the sunroom. And at that door, in another moment, appeared Xan, white-faced and terrified. Then, as Xan stepped into the room, Orville Kent also came ir\ from the south side, through the outside door that opened on the lawns and flower beds that ran down to the brook. “What is it?" he cried, then, catching sight of Raynor's fallen figure, and taking in ' Finley with the pistol. Kent sprang across the room to put his arm round the shaking form of his sister. “Move, somebody! Do something!” came from Miss Turner in an hysterical shriek. “Oh. Dougles!” Miss Mattie cried,
