"Do you think I .would speak so openly In order that you might tell all the world with your gabbling tongue? Yes, and I'll epeuk more openly still before I leave. Lady Rachel Sandal did not commit suicide, as my mother said. She was strangled, and by me." Sylvia clapped her hands to her face with a scream. "By you?" "Yes. She had a beautiful brooch. I wanted it. I was put to bed by my mother and kept thinking of the brooch. My mother was down the Etairs attending to your drunken father. I stole to Lady Icaehel's room and found her asleep. I tried to take the brooch from her breast. She woke and caught my hand. Hut I tore away the brooch and before Lady Rachel could scream I twisted the silk handkerchief she wore, which was already around her throat, tighter. I am strong I always was strong, even as a girl of fifteen. She was weak from exhaustion, bo she soon died. My mother came into the room and saw what I had done. She was terrified and made me go back to bed. Then she tied Lady Rachel by the silk handkerchief to the bedpost, eo that it might be thought she had committed suicide. My mother then came back to me and took the brooch, telling me I might be hanged if It was found on me. I was afraid, being only a girl, and gave up the brooch. Then Captain Jessop raised the alarm. I and my mother went downstairs, and my mother dropped the brooch on the floor, so that it might be supposed Lady Rachel had lost It there. Captain Jessop ran out. I wanted to give the alarm and tell the neighbors that Krill had done it, for I knew then he was not my father, and I saw, moreover, how unhappy he made my mother. lie caught me," said Maud, with a fierce look, "and bound a handkerchief across my mouth. I got free and screamed. Then he bound me haud and foot and pinned my lips together with the brooch which he picked off the floor. My mother fought for me, but he knocked ,her down. Then he fled, and after a long time Jessop came in. lie removed the brooch from my mouth and unbound me. I was put to bed, and Jessop revived my mother. Then came the Inquest, and it was thought that Lady Rachel had committed . sulejde. But she did not," cried Maud exultantly and with a cruel light in her eyes. "I killed her I" "Oh," moaned Sylvia, backing against the wall with widely open eyes. "Bah, you kitten!" sneered Maud contemptuously. "I have not half doue yet! You have yet to hear how I killed Krill." Sylvia shrieked and sank back in her chair, staring with horrified eyes at the cruel face before her. "Yes." cried Maud exultingly, "I killed him. My mother suspected me, but she never knew for certain. Listen. When Hay told me that Kril was hldiujc as Norman in Gwynne street I determined to punish him for his cruelty to me. I did not say this, but I made Hay promise to get mo the brooch from Beecot. Ou no other condition would I marry him. I wanted the brooch to pin Krill's lips together as he had pinned mine when I was a helpless child, but your fool of A lover would not part with the brooch. Tray, the boy, took It from Beecot's pocket when he met with that accident" "How do you know Tray?" "Because I met him at rash'3 office several times when I was up. He ran errands for Pash before he became regularly employed. I saw that Tray was a devil of whom I could make use. Oh, I know Tray, and I know also Ilokar, the Indian, whe placed the sugar on the counter. Ho went to the shop to kill your father at my request. I wanted revenge and the money. Hokar was saved from starvation by my good mother. II came of the race of thugs, if you know anything about them." "Oh." moaned Sylvia, covering her face again. "Ah, you do. So much the better. It will save my explaining, as there is not much time left Wfore your fool arrives. Ilokar saw that I loved to hurt living creatures, and he taught rae how to strangle cats and dogs and things. No one knew but Ilokar that I killed them, and it was thought he ate them. But he didn't. I strangled them because I loved to see them suffer and because I wished to learn how to strangle in the way the thugs did.

Sylvia was sick with fear and dis-; I'll show you how lloKar taught me.' gut. ' For Clod's sake, don't tv.l me She jerked the handkerchief tight, but any more," she said imploringly. Sylvia got her hand under the cruel But she might as well have spoken ! bandage and shrieked aloud in deto a granite rovk. -You shall hear i fpalr. At once she heard an answer-

everything." said Maud relentlessly. I asked Hokar to strangle Krill. lie went to the shop, but when he sawthat Krill had only one eye he could not offer him to the goddess Bhowanee. He came to me at Judson's ho - tel after he left the sugar ou the conn - ter and told me the goddess would not accept the offering of a maimed man. I did not know what to do. I went with my mother to Pash's ofaee when she was arranging to prosecute Krill for bigamy. I met Tray there. He told me he had given the brooch to Pash and that it was in the inner office. My motht was talkiug to Pash "within, and 1 chatted to Tray outside. I told Tray I wanted to kill KjiU acd

that If he would help me I would give him a lot of money. He agreed, for he wag a boy such as I was when a girl fond of teeing things suffer. You can't wonder at it in me," went on Mlr8 Krill coolly. "My grandmother was handed for poisoning my grandfather, and I expect I Inherit the lore of raurd?r fror; her." "I won't listen," cried Sylvia, shuddering. "Oh, yes, you will. I'll soon be done." went on her persecutor cruelly. "Well, then, when I found Tray was like myeelf I determined to pet the brooch and hurt Krill hurt him as he hurt

me," she cried vehemently. 'lray j told me of the cellar and of the side : passage. When my mother and Pash j came out of the inner office and went j to the door I ran In and took the ; brooch. It was hidden under some j papers and had escaped my mother's j eye. But I searched till I got it. Then j I made an appointment with Tray for ; 11 o'clock at the corner 01 uwue street. I went back to Juusons uotei, and my mother and I went to the theater. We had supper and retired to bedthat is, my mother did. We had left the theater early, as my mother had a headache, and I had plenty of time. Mother fell asleep almost immediately. I went downstairs veiled and in dark clothes. I slipped past the night porter and met Tray. We went by the side passage to the cellar. Thinking we were customers, Krill let us in. Tray locked the door, and I threw myself on Krill. He had not been drink ing much or I might not have mastered him. As it was he was too terrified when he recognized me to struggle. In fact, he fainted. With Tray's assistance I bound his hands behind his back, and then we enjoyed ourselves." Sylvia rose and staggered to the door. "No more no more!" Maud pushed her back into her chair. "Stop where you are, you whimpering fool!" she snarled, exultantly. "I have you safe." -Then she continued quickly and with another glance at the clock, the long hand of which now pointed, to a quarter to 4. "With Tray's assistance I carried Krill up to the shop. Tray found an auger and bored a hole in the floor. Then I picked up a coil of copper wire which was being used in packing things for Krill to make his escape. I took it up. We laid Krill's neck over the hole and passed the wire around his neck and through the hole. Trav went down and tied a cross stick on the end of the wire so that he could put his weight on It when we strangled" "Oh, great heaven!" moaned Sylvia, stopping her ears. Maud bent over her and pulled her hands away. "You shall hear, you little beast," she snarled. "All the time Krill was sensible. Ho recovered his senses after he was bound. I prolonged his agony as much as possible. When Tray went down to see after the wire, I knelt beside Krill and told him that I knew I was not his daughter; that I intended to strangle him as I had strangled Lady Rachel. He shrieked with horror. That was the cry you heard, you cat, and which brought you downstairs. I never expected that," cried Maud, clapping her hands. "That was a treat for Krill I never Intended. I stopped his crying any more for assistance by pinning his mouth together, as he. had don mine over twenty years before. Then I sat beside him and taunted him. I heard the policeman pass and the church clock strike the quarter. Then I heard footsteps and guessed you were coming. It occurred to me to give you a treat by strangling the man before your eyes and punish him more severely, since the brooch stopped him calling out as it stopped me me," she cried, striking her breast. "Oh, how could you how could" "You feeble thing," said Maud contemptuously and patting the girl's cheek, "you would not have done it, I know. But I loved It I loved it! That was living indeed. I went down to the collar and fastened the door behind me. Tray was already pressing on the cross stick at the end of the wire and laughed as he pressed. But I stopped him. I heard you and that woman enter the 6hop and heard what you said. I prolonged Krill's agony, and then I pressed the wire down my self for such a time as I thought it would take to squeeze the life out of the beast. Then, with Tray, I locked the cellar door and left by the side passage. We dodged all the police and got into the Strand. I did not return to the hotel, but walked about with Tray all the night, talking with joy." cried Maud, clapping her hands, "with you, do you hear? When it was S. I went to Judson's. The porter thought I had been out for an early walk. My mother" Here Maud broke off, for Sylvia, who was staring over her shoulder out of the window, saw a form she knew well at the gate. "Paul Paul," sho shrieked, "come come!' Maud whipped the black silk hand kerchief round the girl's neck. "You i shall never get that money," she whia- j pered cruelly. "You shall never tell ! anv one what I have told you. Now j ing shriek. It was the voice ot Deborah. Maud darted to the door and locked it. Then she returned and, flinging Sylvia down, tried again to tighten j the handkerchief, her face white and ! fierce and her eyes glittering like a demon's. Helrv-helD!" cried Sylvia, and her voice grew weaker. But she struggled and kept her hands between the hand - kerchief and her throat. Maud tried to drag them awar fiercely. Deborah as battering frantically at the door. I'aul ran round to the window. It was not locked, and Maud, struggling with Sylvia, had no time to close it. With a cry of alarm Paul tfcrew ua

the window and jumped Into the room. At the same moment Deborah, putting her sturdy shoulder to the frail door, burst it open. Beecot f.ung himself on the woman and dragged her back. But she clung like a leech to Sylvia with the black handkerchief In her grip. Deborah, silent and fierce, grabbed at the handkerchief and tore It from Maud's grasp. Sylvia, half strangled, fell back in a faint, white as a corpse, while Paul struggled with he savage and baffled woman. "You've killed her," shouted Deborah and laid her strong hands on Maud, "you devil!" She shook her

orcf!y. "I'll kill you!" and slie shook er again. pauj threw himself on his knees beside the insensible form of Sylvia an,i left Deborah to deal with Maud, That creature was gasping as Mrs! Tawsey swung her to and fro. Then she began to fight, and the two' women crashed around the little room, upsettlDg tne furniture. Paul took Svlvla In his arms and shrank amlnst th wall to protect her. A new person suddenly appeared, no less a woman than Matilda. When she saw Maud in Deborah's grip she flew at her sister like a tigress and dragged her off. Maud was free for a moment Seeing her chance, she scrambled out of the window and ran through the garden down the road toward the station. Perhaps she had a vague idea of escape. Deborah, exerting her great strength, threw Matilda aside and without a cry ran out of the house and after the assassin who had tried to strangle Sylvia. Matilda, true to her salt, ran also to help Maud Krill, and the two women sped in the wake of the insane creaturt who wa3 swiftly running in the direction of the station. People began to look round, a crowd gathered like magic, and in a few moments Maud was being chased by quite a mob of people. She ran like a hare, neaven only knows if she hoped to escape after her failure to kill Sylvia, but she ran on blindly. Into the new 6treet of Jublleetown she sped, with the roaring mob at her heels. She darted down a side thoroughfare, but Deborah gained on her silently and with a savage look in her eyes. Several policemen joined in the chase, though no one knew what the flying woman had done. Maud turned suddenly up the slope that led to the station. She gained the door, darted through it, upset the man at the barrier and with clinched fists stood at bay, her back to the rails. Deborah darted forward "You shall never get that money." Maud gave a wild scream and sprang side. Then she reeled and fell over the platform. The next moment a train came slowly into the station, and Immediately the wretched woman was under the cruel wheels. When she was picked up she was dead and almost cut to pieces. Lady Rachel and Lemuel Krill were revenged. CHAPTER XXVI. YLVIA was ill for a long time after that terrible hour. Although Maud had not succeeded in strangling her, yet the black silk handkerchief left marks on her neck. Then the struggle, the shock and the remembrance of the horrors related by the miserable woman threw her into a nervous fever, and it was many weeks before she recovered sufficiently to enjoy life. Deborah never forgave herself for having left Sylvia alone and nursed her with a fierce tenderness which was the result of remorse. "If that wretch 'ad killed my pretty," she said to Paul, "I'd ha' killed her, if I wos hanged fur it five times over." God has punished the woman," said Faul solemnly. "Serve 'er right." rejoined Deborah heartlessly. "What kin you expect fur good folk if wicked ones, as go strangulating people, don't git the Lord down on 'em. Oh. Mr. Beecot," Deborah broke down into noisy tears, "the "errors that my lovely one 'ave tole me. Sieh murders and gory assassins'." "I gathered something of this from what Sylvia let drop when we came back from the station," said Beecot anxiously. "Tell me exactly what she said, Deborah." "Why that thing as is dead, an' may she rest in a peace she don't deserve, tole hew she murdered Lady Rachel j Sandal an' my ole master." 1 "Deborah," cried Beecot, amazed. j Ton must be mistaken." i "No, I ain't, sir. That thing guv my ; L1J queen tne orrors. jes you ear, Mr. Beecot. and creeps will go up your back. Lor' 'ave mercy on us as don't know the wickedness of the world." (To be concluded tomorrow.)

FOR MADAM AND MADEMOISELLE

By

FASHION FANCIES With the fall season silk has come into its own again as the dominating fabric for the separate waist. Fancy silks, plaids, Perisian and oriental designs have made a great imprt-ss upon the fall lines and have almost de termined the cut of the waist. In the plain silks, peau de cygne and taffeta will be the l.-ading factors while in plain silks taffetas and loulsines will find all favor. Fancy silks have been produced in corol and combinations which tone in admirably with the most favored velvets and cloth suits. Other materials which are used to a great extent are piqiu-s. linens, cot tons, light woolens and net, both figured and plain. The reason for the popularity of the silk waist for fall and winter is that it can be developed in both simple mil elaborate styles. It is suitable for every occasion when it is correct to wear a separate waist. A pretty idea for a silk waist Is to use a lace yoke or chemisette to give a square neck effect. This not only gives u tailored air but is decidedly more becom ing to mote women. In fancy silk waists the cross liar plaids are very pretty. They will be cut so as to give Wie broad shouldered and slender waist effect and for this reason the best models will be cut on the bias. Rather broad plaits will be used. These plaits will frequently be so used as to overlap the sleeve. In the plaid and perslan silk waists blue and green, brown and green and red combinations are most favored. The reason for the blue silk is that blue occupies a favored position in the color of tailored suits. Net waists are also In favor and pretty trimmed with bands of lace and heavy medallions. Kcru nets hold the foremost position but golden brown will also be used. It is said that black will occxjpy third place. Net waists are being made over both chiffon and china silk linings. The chiffon lialngs, if they are of white or cream tone are more in fashion. The white slip will be frequently used under the black net waist when a very dressy effect is desired. Costume skirts for formal wear will be generally of a length barely escaping the ground in front and dipping slightly in the back. Yet, there will be exceptions to this rule, for dancing frocks for debutantes will barely escape the ground, while some of the gowns Intended for formal afternoon and dinner wear, particularly those intended for restaurant dinners, will be of the same length as the fashionable ball gown. Here is an undoubted concession to the hygienic demands of the American woman, and dressmakers who cater to the most exclusive trade are so in accord with it that they aver the skirt which clears the ground is a much mor graceful one than that which Just touches It. Lingerie bows, composed of delicate embroidery and lace cither heavy or fine and generally in butterfly shape will be worn this winter with the linen colors. These are becoming the dainty styles of neckwear, which will be correctly worn with the lingerie and silk waists. Windsor and four-in-hand ties, in attratcive colors will be called for by the younger element. These, too, will be worn witli the embroidered linen collar, but it must be remembered that Dame Fashion does not accent, but rather discourage, mannish styles this season. A great deal of the style value of these silk ties will lie in their coloring, which must be moderately light in tone and in various shades of blue, leather, russet, green, yellow, violet and Burgundy; In other words, it should be selected to correspond with the millinery colors. From all Indications Irish crochet lace will continue in vogue all winter. It is considered remarkable considering the length of time it has been used on both winter and summer frocks to say nothing of the separate collar and cuff sets which do so much to relieve the severe tailored suit. A FEW RECIPES Cldnr Apple Jelly. With cider fresh from the press, try making cider appleJelly. Wash and wipe rather tart, fineflavored apples; quarter and put in pre serving kettle with sweet cider to nearly cover. Cook gently until the apples are soft; then strain and measure the Juice. There should be about half as much cider as fruit. Allow for each pint of Juice a pound of sugar. Heat the sugar in the oven and cook the Juice twenty minutes. Turn in the sugar, and as soon as dissolved remove the spoon. Cook five minutes longer; then pour into hot, sterilized glasses and seal when cold. Old Fashioned Cider Apple Sauce. Take one gallon sweet, fresh cider, and boil down to two quarts. Have ready a half bushel sweet apples peeled cored and quartered. Put the boiled cider in a porcelain kettle, add as many apples as It will hold without crowding, cover closely and simmer gently without stirring until the apples are tender. Then skim out the apples and add more, and so on until all are cooked. Put the apples in a stone crock, pour the juice over them and set away over night. The next day drain the syrup off the apples, cook until quite thick; then return to the jar. The apples should be tender, but distinct, and the syrup nearly all absorbed. A few quinces sliced fine may ! be added If desired. They should be cooked almost tender in cold water before adding to the cider. Sour apples may also be used with boiled cider; but the fruit will need sweetening. Here is a good recipe for chtli sauce: Eight quarts of ripe tomatoes, one pound of brown sugar, one cupful of salt, one ounce of cloves, one ounce of cinnamon, one pint of strong vinegar, one quart of small onions, one ounce of celery seed, one ounce of allspice. one teaspoonf ul of black pepper, one red rerter. The tomatoes should be measured after being seeded and chop ped. Put them in a saucepan over the fire and simmer one hour. Chop the onions and grind the spices, Mix au

SUSIE SMITHERS.

the ingredients given with the tomatoes, simmer for one hour and seal while hot in large-necked bottles. HOUSEHOLD HINTS Chilblains usually come when one i3 run down and t e blood is thin; if this is your case youd would better take some tonics, such as iron, and if you are very thin, you would do well to eat fattening things. Take a great d'-al of butter and some codliver oil. You should not scratch or irritate chilblains, for if you do they may become sores, which will give you a great deal of trouble. Unless you build up your system and strengthen your constitution, you will be liable to have them every time that you expose yourself to the cold. A good remedy is to bathe the parts that are affected twli'o daily with acetate of zinc, a dram to a pint of water, followed by the application of zinc oxide ointment containing two per cent of carbolic acid. Iodine ointment is also good. If it seems too strong add to it some vaseline, to make it more mild. You will be wise not to tamper with the color of your hair. Light hair often lias a tendency to grow darker with age, but it will not Improve your looks to use anything on the order of a bleach to prevent this. Moles can be. burnt off by the application of acids and caustics, but you would better not try to do it yourself. It takes experience to know just how much caustic to apply, for if one uses too much a, scar worse than the mole I will result. Hunches of sweet clover tied and hanging, blossoms downward, give a delicious fragrance to a room, and when the clover is thoroughly dry, it is ready to ba put ia pretty cheese cloth or silkollne bags, and laid on tin'! shevles of the linen closet or in t lit; drawer with the lingerie, where it af- j fords a refreshing suggestion of sum- j mer fields all through he winter, and will last until the return of the sweet ! clover season. A good sized crust of bread put in the bottom of the kettle when cabbage or cauliflower is cooking, will prevent the odor of that vegetable from permeating the bouse. Crocheted dishcloths will last longer than any other kind and will be found easy to keep clean. Crochet them in an open stitch about a foot square. Use a heavy white crochet cotton or keep for this purpose the string that comes around parcels. An apple cut in half and put in a cake box will keep a cake moist indefinitely. You have doubtless heard of using a quilted pad under the Ice, which it is claimed effects a great saving. I arrived at the same result by laying a folded towel or pad of canton Ilennel under the ice, having two In use, so that one can always be clean and well sunned. It is surprising how It keeps the ice from melting, much more so than wrapping In a cloth, which does not allow the cold to disseminate fresly enough. Here are the best sauces for meats: With roast beef, grated horseradish. With roast veal, tomatoe or horseradish sauce. Roast mutton, currant jelly. Roast pork, apple sauce. Roast lamb, chestnut dressing, cranberry jelly. Roast venison, black currant jelly or grape jelly. Roast goose, tart apple sauce. Roast quail, currant jelly, celery sauce. Roast canvasback duck, apple bread, black currant jelly. Roast chicken, bread sauce. Fried chicken, cream gravy, corn fritters. Roast duck, orange salad. Roast ptarmigan, bread sauce. Cold boiled tongue, sauce tartare or olives stuffed with peppers. Veal sausage, tomato sauce, grated mesan cheese. Pork sausage, tart apple sauce or fried apples. Frizzled beef, horseradish. Pork croquettes, tomato sauce. Corned beef, mustard. Lobster cutlet, sauce tartare. Sweetbread cutlet, sauce bechamel. Reedblrds, fried hominy, white celery. Cold boiled fish, sauce piquant. Tripe, fried bacon and apple rings. Broiled fresh mackerel, stewed gooseberries. Fresh salmon, cream sauce and green peas. 1 rV "u V ' .4 . nnnst in point or perfection the pick of
