p M CASE of CAVENDISH * IOPyRIGHT. BY RANDALL J

CHAPTER Xl—Continued. —lB Yet what house- was this that she should be here? How did it happen that we were at the same place? Had she come voluntarily; or a prisoner? Had she been tricked into coming? or brought by force? and was she held here helpless to escape? I tried the door softly—it was locked. This, coupled with the fact that the key was upon the outside, served to. answer the main question. However she came, she was now being held a prisoner. We muSt both be in the same hands, in the unscrupulous grasp of this desperate gang of jcrimlnals. determined to .gain from us at any cost the secret we were supposed to share. I hesitated, but for only a moment, debating with myself the best course to pursue. Should I endeavor to escape front the house alone, and then return to her rescue with help? or face the greater danger of attempting to take her with me? The former move involved exposure of her whole connect'.on with the affair, and I was afraid to take upon myself the responsibility. I knew not who she was. or why she had*become involved in this mesh of crime. I feared Harris’ knowledge, the evidence he might disclose, and what his passion for revenge might drive aim to do, if he once found his game decisively blocked. It would he better for me to tell her ail first and then act at her direction. I reinserted the key in the lock noiselessly, shot back the bolt -and opened the door, stepping quickly within to instantly shut out the glare of liglit. it seemed to me this was accomplished in utter silence, but, as the door latched behind me, she was upon her feet, plainly startled bjrthe Intrusion. . •Who are you? What does this mean? —why, Mr. Severn!” “Yes,”. I responded quickly, yet. making no effort to atlvanyu, “you have nothing to fear; only do not speak loudly.” "But please explain. I—l am cot afraid at you, of course, but how do you--happen-to- be here.?'' ___. “Perhaps yon will permit me to ask a question first, whicli may sound ridiculous enough—where am I?” “You do not know that even? I can at least answer with certainty,” her composure returning; “you are at 247 Le Cotnpte street.” “Waldron’s house; that possibility never occurred to me. Sounds strange, doesn’t it? 'jut the truth is I was brought here unconscious.” “You were attacked?" “Slugged in Costigan’s saloon?"' I explained shortly. "It took three of them to do it. but they did a good Job. That must have been about midnight. Wl-.at time Is it now?"

“It is after four; who J)re they?” “Harris. Waidron and, Costigan—--Boroeombinatlon.” ) “But why should they slug you, Mr. Severn ?” “Simply because of mj\ connection with the mysterious Miss I explained. “Harris had rhosentn associate us together, believing we who murdered and .r-obbed Alva, and, where the spoils are bidden. They i endeavored first to put me through the third degree, and When I refused tq,, squeal—as you know simply because I possessed no knowledge to communicate—they resorted to force, and here I am.” Her eyes, wide open, questioning, were upon my face. “They—they asked you about me? Why should they suppose you know anything?” ■ ■ , "Largely because we were together at Perond’s. I presume. Harris clalms to know you—who JO# are. is that'true?" |— “It -may be,” she adfljitted., ’‘What hss happened tonight almost convinces m->. I came here willingly, only to find aiyself a prisoner. Sarah Waldron telephoned roe that she was ill, and needed me. I have known her ever since I was a girl; we were -from the same town, so. really I thought -nothing Unusual of her call. I have seen no one here since I came —no men, I mean —and did not remove my clothes, In anticipation of being called.” “She claimed to be here alone?" " "There are roomers on the floor below,'but I met none.” “But I found your door locked,” I Insisted. “That is very strange. I heard nothing. Perhaps if you will explain what they asked you, we may come to. some' understanding of what tills all . means. Does Harris accuse the of the robbery?" “Tes and of the murder. The way he tells it the thing,does sound rather ugly.” I confessed regretfully, hut believing the time had arrived for plain speech between us.. "At least I was In uo position to controvert his claims." “You imply you suspect me also' of tills crime?” “No, not that! I haw given you my but it has been given blindly. You have refused me your confidence. I do,not even know your name, your place of residence, how you became Involved in this cordon. You must, acknowledge I am badly handicapped when it comes to attempting Jour defense.” ’*• “You have been very true,, vejy kind.” -she admitted, and extended her . hand. “You njusl|knop- how greatly L appreciate such faithfulness, Mr. Severn. But tell me what Harris bolds.

to b proof against me. If all this be true, we cannot waste time here in talk.” CHAPTER XII. At the Foot of the Stairs “No, it will soon be morning, and ail way of escupe hloeked. He is willing to swear that you agreed to permit Alva to drive you downtown, and that you actually departed together.' This charge can perhaps be answered by the testimony of Krantz. If he can he got on the witness stand, as you have told me he accompanied you. on a street car.” “Which is true.” “I accept your word, of course, but Harris does not,- and I must confess he has some evidence to -create suspicion.” ‘You say that!” “I must, to be perfectly honest. I will even confess there have been times when I doubted. Let me tell you—Alva was undoubtedly killed with a dagger hatpin, exactly ljke that one in your hat there,” and- I pointed to it on the dresser. Her eyes turned that way In an expression of stnrtled surprise. “Killed with a hatpin like that of mine?” “Yes, there is no doubt ns to the nature of the weapon. I know more about that than Harris, even.” “How are you so sure a hatpin was the weapon used ‘i The police reports say nothing like thftt.” ."They do not know; I do. The truth is, I was the first to discover the murder. I related to you my conversation with Harris, after all others had left the foundry. We must have been there alone for an hour. When we left we separated, believing this to be safe, and I walked downGans*street alone in the rain. Some blocks below the foundry I came upon this cur, bumped up against the curb, and apparently abandoned, the rear door’stood wide open, and inside, and felt about, merely from curiosity. My fingers Touched something lying on the floor, and, when I drew it out, and looked at it In the -light-of-a dlstont-street-lamp, I discovered it to be a dagger hatpin, discolored with blood.” She stared at me in horror. “Like that one there?” “Exactly like it. I had seen the one in your hat. and remembered.” "You thought it must be mine? That—that I had murdered him?” “I hardly believe I thought at till. But I investigated the front seat,

Then I knew.” ‘ ~. ■ “Knew what?” "How the man had been killed. I believed then htw alone; I had reason to, for I overheajd his invitation, and your answer. I recognized the weapon as one you had in your possession. 'My first thought was that it would utterly condemn you if pver found.” "And, even then, you sought to protect me? You cared enough for that?” "I hardly know; It must have been true enotlgh. I scarcely doubted but what it was your act —only I jktsuudod myself that the man roust have attacked you, and that you struck in self defense. I would not believe you guilty of deliberate murder. I meant to give you a chance; so J took .the weapon away with me.” She drew’.* lung breath. “Np one saw.you?” “Not a soul; the..street was absolutely deserted,'" I wiped off the blood, and hid Jibe knife in my pocket until I reached the hotel; then I concealed it at the bottom of my valise.” “It is still there?” “No; something led Harris to suspect I was not Duly, and he set out to investigate. He had my telephone number; nnd easily located both hotel and room. Wafting until I left the key, he entered, and went through the valise in search of anything ire could fin'd. He. came upen tire dagger hatpin, remembered that you had just such a one in your hat that night, and Instantly Jumped to the conclusion, as he bad seen the wound, that this, * v-; J

was tne weapon of murder, tie l>< lleves we were working together, urn' this was why I lmd concealed thi knife.” “And you? you believed that?’ i “T Relieved In you," I said earnestly “At first I thought It must be you; then I saw that pin In your bat again, when I knew I lmd one just like II hidden at the hotel. Tills gave me new hope, until I returned and discovered my valise slit open, and the dagger gone. I knew of no one who would do sneh an act —or had occasion to—except you, In an effort to destroy evidence. “Then Inter, when that Vns cleared up by Harris acknowledging that he was the one who got the pin, I told him about your having your own In your hnt at Perond's. He only laughed, and said you were smart enough to buy another, ns soon as the first was found missing; that doubtless there were plentv to be had." “He's right; there ure. At leust I know of one shop on lower Broudway where they are for sale.” She stoppdfl suddenly, with a peculiar gesture. “Why, now I think of it, Sarah Waldron has one exactly like mine; 1 bought it for her." “Ivan Waldron’s wife?” "Os course; that's rather odd, isn’t it?" ' “It (yens up a line of thought, anyway. Conld you find out, do you suppose, if she has It still? What does'she know about her husband?" The girl laughed softly. “Know! Less even than I do, 1 Imagine. He doesn’t show up here oftener than once In six months, and Sarah gets nothing from him. She wouldn't know—why?” “Because, after all, it might he the Russian; If it was he would have to lie to Harris, and pretend to know nothing. You heard how those two talked at Perond's. What did yon make of it?" She drew her eyes/together, leaving the marks of a frown on her forehead. “That they had planned together to rob Alva? that Waldron was to be hidden somewhere outside, and was to wait for Harris- to signal him that the money had been paid over." “Exactly; Harris failed to^ learn that the money changed hands, and consequently did ’ riot signal. But Waldron. nevertUelesh, was outside waiting; had no doubt spotted Alva’s machine, pnd was ready to act. The one thing we do not know Is —did Alva start home hlone; or did one of accompany him? If the latter supposition is true then that fellow must have committed the murder, with Waldron a possible accomplice.* after the crime. If not trqe, then the only other .solution is that Alva picked Waldron up for companionship. Were they acquainted at all?" ..-■■■

“I think so, but,am not sure; you said' Waldron first reported this chance to Harris." “So lie diii; then it is quite possible the.two knew each other.. That would make It easy for thejlussian to ask a ride. Whoever struck the blow was in tile rear seat. Tills theory fits in alt right with his actions toward Harris." What do you mean to do?” “Shadow Waldron; he is sure to expose himself sooner or inter. We must get away from here, out of the hands _of tin se fellows. Could you find your way to the stairs in the dark?" "Y’es. I have been here often." “Then I'ai* going to turn out this lights before opening the door." She led the way confidently enough moving Silently along the wall, 1 keeping close so as to touch her. A few steps brought ‘ us forth into the hall at the head of a flight of stairs lending downward. My fingers gripped tiie banisters, while she stood aside to let me pass. “You better go ahead now: the next flight Is directly beyond this, and ends at the street door.” “You will follow?" “Os course; I shall keep right behind you.” Wp went down Step by step, not a stair crenkJng. or a sound louder than our own breathing.

TO REMOVE TATTOO MARKS Process Is by No Means Easy, Though Modern Science Has Shown It to Be Practicable. 'Jgttoblng Is the mechanical introduction of pigments under the skin af)d a very well-known process. The pigments employed are carbon, cinnabar carmine ami indigo. Most meftiods employed to remove those-marks, says- Science, anjl Invention, are hy a reactive and a destructive inflammation which will result in the formation of a crust, later cast off together with tattooed markings. One method is to retattoo the iiiAck*. with a solution of 30 parts of zinc chlorhl and 40 parts of water. A mild inflammation will result; a crust forms and about a week later this falls off, leaving n scar which gradually heals. Later a repetition of this may" he necessary.

CHEESE MAKING OFFERS MEANS OF UTILIZING SURPLUS MILK

-

Simple Equipment for Making Cheddar Cheese at Heme.

Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture American or Cheddar type cheese is palatable, rich in food value, and It may be kept for long periods without refrigeration. Every housewife knows of a number of palatable dishes made from cheese which serve as a change in the ordinary diet As it may be made at any time of the year where there is a surplus of milk, cheese making offers an exceptionally advantageous means of conserving for later use milk which might otherwise be wasted, suggest specialists in the United States Department of Agriculture. ■ Approximately five or six hours are required from the time the milk is placed in the vat for heating until the cheese is put into the hoop for final pressing, and during that time it is not necessary for the operator to give it his entire attention. From this point until the end of two weeks only a few minutes each day are required to turn the cheese. After that time the i-hceee Is turned only twice a week until fully cured. Best results have been obtained in regions where the nights are’ cool throughout the summer and where cool ‘water may be Obtained. Approximately 1014 potmds of cheese ure obtained from 100 pounds, or 11 2-3 gallons, of milk containing 4 per cent butter fat. It is important to have fresh, cleuu, whole milk for cheese-waking. If milk is to be kept, overnight it should be cooled to a temperature of 60 degrees F. or lower, and held at that temperature until used. The milk should not be held more than twelve hours, as it is very important that it be perfectly sweet. A Wash boiler, large kettle or tub may be used for cheese-making, but if cheese is to be made frequently a regulur cheese, vat is more satisfactory. A cheese vat 'ls so constructed that hot or cold water may be circulated around the milk for regulating the temperature.’ Control of temperature throughout - the manufacturing process is essential. A good thermometer, therefore, should be used. The milk is heated in the vat o$ wash boiler to a temperature of 86 degrees F., at which it is held until after the curd has been cut Rennet to Curdle the Milk. Cheese made without the addition of coloring matter is light yellow or straw color; if a ’deeper stiade of yellow IS desired a small quantity of coloring Is put in the batik. Regular cheese color should be used, and not butter color, as the latter colors the

GIVES GOOD PICKLE FLAVOR Spiced Vinegar Is Frequently Valuable for Pickling—Herbs Useful for Garnish: Spiced vinegar Is used liu making pickles, for flavoring gravies, potato salad, aud similar dishes. For pickling it Is especially valuable, as the flavor .from spiced vinegar Is the same all through the pickles, while if pepper, cloves, and dill are allied directly to the pickles the flavor Is more concentrated at the places where these spices are put. The herbs from which the spiced vinegar Is made-may be used ns’ a garnish by' mixing them In the pickle. 1: i An excellent spiced vinegar is made hy filling a wide-mouthed bottle or a Jrult jar to within two inches of the top with, spiced' plants- of different kinds, such as slices of horse radish and onions, u/nbels of dill, ripe seed of white mustard and celery, green seed of nasturtiums, fine stems and leaves of tarragon, basil, and sweet marjoram. A pod of red pepper may also he added. The bottle •w.- Jar is then filled with Vinegar, heated to 160 degrees F-, .corked or sealed and left for about three weeks. At the end of the three weeks, strain the ..vinegar and fill In small bottles, fork nod seal with melted paraffin or sealing vvax.

fat but not the curd. Rennet Is added in the proportion of one-third ounce, or two teaspoonfuls, to 100 pounds ol milk. First dliute the rennet with a pint of cold water, then stir It in thoroughly, and leave the milk and container undisturbed for 30 minutes. Cut the curd when sufficiently firm; do not crush or break it. Stir the curd gently from fifteen to twenty minutes. Heat it at the rate of two degrees in five minutes until the temperature reaches 100 degrees F. JStlr It while heating. Hot-Iron Curd Teat. Allow the curd to remain in the whey at 100 degrees F. until firm and until enough acid has developed v Do not let the curd mat together. Sufficient acid has developed when the Curd applied to a hot iron will form strings one-fourth to one-haif inch long. The curd is firm enough if* a handful of it pressed together between the hands falls apart readily when the pressure is released. Draw off the whey and put tie card on a draining rack which has been Covered with a muslin cloth. Do not let the curd form Into pieces larger than a hickory nut. Keep the curd warm while on the rack. When the curd forms strings from three-fourths to one inch long on a hot iron, add salt at the rate of three ounces for terf pounds of the curll. Have the curd nt a temperature of about 85 degrees F. Put It in a hoop lined with cheesecloth and apply pressure gently. Cheese hoops may be obtained from dairy supply houses. Tile cheese Cloth is left on the finished cheese. After one and one-half hours tne cheese should be taken out and dressed, that is. all wrinkles are taken out of the cheesecloth which covers It. When the cheese hits been properly dressed it should He put back in the press and full pressure applied for 24 hours. Then the cheese is ready for the curing room where it remains at a temperature between 50 and GO degrees for two weeks. The cheese should be turned daily in the curing room until it Is pafalllned to prevent it from drying too much, and also to prevent mqjdlng. Tiie paraffin Is heated (6 a temperature of 240 degrees F. and the cheese roiled in It. After this has been done the cheese need be turned only twice a Week. Cheese may be cured enough to be eaten when six weeks’old; the flavor, of course, is then quite mild. Farmers’ Bulletin 1191, “Making American Cheese on the Farm,” gives many dotgtls qf the process and equipment for cheesewnaklng.

GOLDEN TEXT-I determined not te know anything among you. save Jezui Chrlgt and him crucified.—l Cor. 2:2. REFERENCE MATERIAL-I Cor. 2:1-4 4:12; II Cos. 11:7-9. PRIMARY TOPIC Tentmaking ant Teaching. JUNIOR TOPIC —Paul Working ant Preaching in Corinth. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —Teaching and Tentmaking In Corinth. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —Paul tn a Commercial Center. The establishment of the church at Corinth Is an eXumple of missionary endeavor for all ages. The method employed, which resisted in success then, will result In success now. I. The True Mleeionary Method (vv. 1-3). Paul came to Corinth a stranger In a strange city. He did not have an advance agent to do his advertising; neither did he have hto photograph put in the daily paper with sensational announcements, upon his arrival. in Corinth. He did not have a trained singer with him; neither did he have his salary guaranteed. His method in gaining a foothold in Corinth was as follows: 1. Finding a home (V. 2). Tills he found with Aqulla and Priscilla, Jews who were recently expelled from Rome by the cruel edict of Claudius. Being Jews, .he found natural affiinlty with them. 2. jfle toiled for hU* daily bread (v. 3). He was of the same craft with them, being tentmakers. Every child among the Jews was taught some trade by means of which he could gain a livelihood should occasion require. One, of the rabbis said that he who failed to teach his boy 4 trade taught him to steal. 11. Preaching in the Synagogue at Corinth (w. 4-8). 1. Though compelled to toll for a living while getting a foothold in Corinth, he did not lose sight of his main work (v. 4). He reasoned in Jhe evnngngue every Sabbath, persuading the Jews a in/ Greeks. In this respect lie was like William Carey, the cobbler. When Carey was asked what his business was he replied that preaching the gospel was his business, but that he cobbled to make expenses. While the missionary' should not be .above’ honest toil when necessity arises, he should not allow toil to interfere with the preaching of the gospei. 2. His activity was increased when Silas and Timothy came (v. 5). This resulted from three causes: (l) They brought good news from the church at Thessalonlca (I Thess. 3:6). To hear of the steadfastness of those, vs ho had confessed Christ under our ministry puts new vigor into our labors. (2) They brought pecuniary gifts from the Macedonian churches (Philip. 4:15;. Tl Cor. 11:9). Being relieved from the necessity of toll for a living, they now could devote more time and energy to the preaching of the gospel. (3) Silas apd Timothy became assistants to Paul in the work, thereby strengthening his hands so as to enable Wa to accentuate hjs efforts. 3. Paul opposed (v. 6). His increased activity was met with .Increased opposition. This can always be expected. 4. Paul announces his purpose to turn to the Gentiles (v. 6). Because, of their blashphemy and opposition he ceased to work among the Jews. There Is a time when good judgment causes one to abandon work where efforts have been fruitless, but it Is difficult to know Just when to do it. 5. He did not go far away (v. 7). He sufficiently near that those whose hearts God touched could easily find him. It is likewise true that although Christ is obligejl to depart from tfie soul that refitSes Him entrance, He lingers with yearning love around that heart. 6. His success (v. 8). Crispns, the chief ruler of the synagogue, was converted. PCrhaps the severity of his action in turning away from them moved Crispus to action. Pressure for immediate decision is helpful to some —they realize it is now or never. Many others followed the examine of Crispus. Paul varied from his usual custom and baptized Crispus (I Cor. 1:14). 111. Paul's Vision (vy. 9-11). His experiences since coming to Europe were very trying. He needed encouragement at this time. If fs Just like the Lord to come at the time of the servant’s greatest need. 1 Note the Lord’s iverds to him: *l7 “B 4 hot afraid.”-"When one Is executing the commission of the Lord he -deed not he afraid. 2. “Speak, and hold not thy peace.” The one who has heard the voice of God cannot refrain from speaking—cannot lie still. 3. “I am with thee.” The Lord Is with everyone who faithfully carries out lSs cornmisjjon. 4. “No man shall set on \hee to hurt thee,” The one sent by the-Lord to do a work Immune - from danger and harm until his work is done. - 5. “I hnYrimieh peoplq in this city.” It is most encouraging to know that In the great cities the Lord has His own people and that the one who goes in His name shall have fruit for his service.

Those—Three Good Men. The word of the Lord camd again unto the, saying, son of man, when the land slnneth against me by, trespassing grevlously, then will I stretch out mine hand upon It, nnd will break the staff of the bread, thereof, and will send famine upon it and will cut off man nnd beast from It: though these three men Sfoah, Daniel, and Job were In It, they would they should deliver but their own souls by their' righteousness, salth the Lord. —Ez® UeV 14:12-14, **' "=■*
