A Wife's Confessional

REVELATIONS
What Madge Hoar When She Elnds
Lee (.'how.
A I drove out of the yard, on
my way to the laundry, where I
hoped to find Lee Chow, 1 told my
aolf, grimly, that the present con
tents of my brain resembled hash
ed brown potatoes more than any
thing else of which I could think.
I.llllan'a assertion that the Chinese
servant of Hugh (irantlund, whom
the had known, was not named
"Leo Chow," but "Ah Moy," had
bewildered me sufficiently, but
when she, with Apparent inadvert
ence, had dropped the Intimation
that she had some knowledge of
Hugh Grantland's disappearance,
which I did not possess, 1 felt that
I was at sea Indeed.
Curiously enough, if was not the
doubt of T.ee Chow's Identity, with
all Its sinister significance, which
most occupied my thought.'. The
question which beat Insistently
against my brain held a more per
ional note. What was the reason
for Lillian's silence concerning
Hugh Grantland's "bitter hour," of
which she had just spoken.
With a flush, I remembered that
enee or twice In that hectic time
when Hugh Gratitland and I were
associated In war work, Lillian had
dropped a friendly caution upon
one or two occasions betraying her
fear that I was becoming too much
Interested In the army officer for
my own peace of mind. I knew that
long ago I had proved to her that
her anxiety had no foundation, but
was It possible ? "With an im
patient shrug of my shoulders. I
threw the whole annoying subject
from me, and found relief for my
jangled nerves In the motorist's
first aid for Impatience, stepping on
the pas.
Lee Chow's Faith Doubted
By the time I reached the village
I had banished everything from my
mind, save my doubt of Lee Chow's
faith. That was enough, however,
In itself, to ."end the thermometer
of my courage toward zero as I
parked the car in front of the laun
dry. I faced Indeed an Impulse to get
away from the place as fast as I
could manage, an impulse which I
conquered only with the opening of
the door upon whose knob I had
laid my hand. For the interior of
the laundry, a familiar scene to me,
was Innocuous in appearance. Only

arated the shop from the living

"I can not understand, John, why
I have not heard from you this
morning. At what time are you
Coming to take me to the train?
"You are not going to take the
morning train? You are no sure
we will go today? What do you
mean? Here, I am all packed up,
my bonnet on and my outside wrap
on a chair. I have already had Miss
Anderson send my trunk to the sta

do that?
"I thought I would relievo you
of as much worry as possible. I
must say, Jack, that you are very
inconsiderate of me. You should
have thought of ran the first thing
when you thought it might be im
possible to take me to Atlantic City
today. What is that matter? Is It
business?
"I must say, Jack, that I think
you are paying altogether too much
attention to your business. There Is
rio reason why you could not hae
put off whatever Is keeping you
here and taken me to Atlantic City
today. Your mother and your wife
are entitled to some of your time.
Have you told Leslie that you are

"Oh, that is the reason, Is It?
Leslie has been called unexpectedly
to Albany. Don't try to excuse her
to me. She prohah'-y left Atlantic
City because she knew you w-ere
taking me over. I must say Leslie

even you are. What could hac

OF A WIFE
Quarters of the proprietor held any
possible appeal to a fearsome Imag
ination. The proprietor, the same Chinese
who had come to the house upon
the pretext of bringing nie a ginger
jar lo advertise his stock of curios.
j did not look up as I entered. He
went on with his work of giving
out packages to the customers,
three In number, who were already
In the room. Yet there was 1m
1 pressed upon me the conviction
i that he had seen and rerognlzcd
! me, but was waiting, as I was, for
tins other customers to leave, be
fore he spoke.
As the hi.st. customer made bis
way to the door advanced toward
the counter behind which the laun
' dryman stood. Ilo gave his mechan
ical smile, and his even more me
chanical "How do." In my turn, I
perfunctorily Indicated the window
of curios.
"1'lease let. me see that teapot," I
said a bit curtly. When he had
placed it before me, Just as the
door closed, leaving me alone In the
shop with him, I spoke crisply and
to the point.
"Do you know where Lee Chow
Is?"
He looked at me blankly, and I
saw that lie meant to deny all
knowledge of the man I sought.
But from behind the dark thick
curtain came the measured words:
"Leo Chow here. What does boss
lady want?"
A Xel for Courage
For a foolish panic-stricken sec
ond, I fought the impulse to flee
from the shop. The words sounded
unaccountably sinister to my over
wrought imagination. My courage
was not bolstered either by the re
membrance of Lillian's warning to
be very sure that I had an exit
from the laundry in sight before I
entered It. But I conquered both
Impulse and memory and spoke In
a ca'm, level voice of which 1 was
proud.
"I want you to come to the farm
as soon as possible," I said. "An
old friend of your "boss man' Is
there, and If you wish to aid your
master, you will do well to see her
and tell her all you know."
He paused perceptibly before an
swering. "That vcr' good," he said at. la.st.
"Tell Missee Underwood, I come to
farm r' soon. Say also, Lee Chow
want to talk ver' much to sick lady.
Missee Graham bettor go quick
back home now. Not stop on way."
John, I don't want to go to Atlantic
City without you.
"I'm not sniveling. I'm crying be
cause my only child for whom I
have sacrificed so much has treated
me with such great disrespect.
"Oh, I beg your pardon. I didn't
know you wanted me to say good
by. That you bad a long distance
call in. Most sons would think that
might wait until Hieir mother had
finished talking. All right, I'm used
to being set aside for anything Toy
you.
"No, I will not call you up again.
Tf you want to speak with me, you
wiir find me here waiting for you.
I shall tell Miss Anderson to go
down to the station and send the
trunks back.
"All risht, I'll leave them there
for a little while if you think best.
"I suppose you understand that
jou have made me a great deal of
trouble and set my nerves on edge
and set my heart thumping. No
one ser-nis to realize, net even you,
that the slightest excitement is very
bad for my heart.
"Call me up when you hae made
your plans. I shall probably not be
able to leave my apartment today
even If you wish to go to Atlantic
City later. Goodby, my son, I'll
try and not tie too unhappy over
your habitual necleel."

-TABLES ON
DISEASE
"Speaking of typhoid fever
germs," Mrs. Mann continued,
science has learned that some peo
ple are just natural human car
riers of the little parasites.
"These people, carriers, as they
are known, may be perfectly well
themselves, but the germs hang on,
and on and on.
"One of the most unusual carriers
was a cook known as 'Typhoid
Mary.' Between 1902 and 1907,
while employed in six different fam
ilies, she infected 26 peraons.
The gum drop field In the deep,
deep woods was very pretty to look
upon. It seemed like the field was
covered -with pretty flowers of all
colors, but they were real gum
drops. The red ones were at raw
berry fUvor, the green ones, litne,
the white ones vanilla, the black
om s lieeriee and so on. Each color
wns a different flavor. And the gum
drops grew upon short stems and
were very easy to pick.
Now the liaggedys did not know
It, nor did Mr. Tuney or Lady
Undy, but the gum drops were
very magical and had been planted
there for Ihe purpose of catching
people who tried to visit the castle
with the golden towers.
So. as ioon as our friends had
eaten sixty lev cn of the gum drops,

magic of the magician, and stood

And there they stood when Mrs.
Orundy, the witch, came running up
howling ever so loud on account of
the bite the strange creature had
given her on hf-r heel.
"Don't eat any of the gum drops,
Mrs. Grundy:" Raggedy Ann called
to the wlteb.
The witch stopped howling and

HEALTH-
CARRIERS
"In 1!07 she was taken to a hos
pital and found to be a chronic car
rier. She was released and was lost
sight of for a time, but in 1915 25
cases of typhoid occurred in the
Sloan hospital of New York, and
Mary was found to have been em
ployed there.
"Many other cases were probably,
though not certainly, traced to her
activities, and 1t is even possible
that, she was the cause of the
waterborne outbreak of 1300 cases
at Ithaca, N. Y., In 1903."
T.indy. "I know why you do not
wish me to have any of the gum
drops," she cried. "It's because you
want them all for yourselves, that's
why!"
"Indeed, it isn't!" Rapcedy Ann
.aid. "Xou will be sorry if you eat
them!"
"Ha. ha, ha! Tou can't fool me
that easily!" the witch chuckled.
"Just wait until I eat sixty leven
of them, then Til go back and give
that strange creature the hardest
thump he ever had!" And she pick
ed sixty leven gum drops and sat
down and gobbled them very fast.
Rut when she tried to take more,
she found her arms would not move.
"Wow!" she howled. "What is
the trouble with me! I can't move
my arms to pick more gum drops!"
"You should net have made a pig
of yourself!" Raggedy Andy said,
forgetting that he had done the
same thing.
"Can you move. Raggedy Ann?"
Mrs. Grundy asked.
"Not even a smidgin!" Raggedy
Ann laughed. "The gum drops wi.ru
magic. That is why I warned you!"
"You mean thing!" the Witch
cried. "JUst wait until I get Lady
I.lndy's magical wishing sMek! I'll
pay you back for this, Raggedy
Ann!"
"Isn't she silly?" Mr. Tuney
laughed. "Raggedy Ann Isn't to
blame!"
Before the witch could n ply, the
Strang; creature came running up
with the witch's magic charms.
"Hurry!" tlvs witch said. "Place
all the charms in a circle and say
"Hokus Pokiw, let Mrs. Grundy
be free from the magic of the gum
drops."
"And will that fix you so that
you can walk?" the strange crea
ture asked.
"Certainly. silly!" Hie witch
howled. "Hurry! I want, ti get. out
of here so I can take Lady Lindy't
wishing stick away from her!"
"Aha! If that is the case, then
you shall sit there a long time!"
the strange creature cried as he
placed the charms In a circle and
released Raggedy Ann and her
frienda from the magic of the gum
drops.
"Now we will run along!" the
strange creature said, "for I would
never think of helping such a sel
fish witci take the wishing stick
away from I.ady Lindy!" And 'he
rtrange creature gave the witch's
magic charms to Raggedy Ann to

, BEG1X HERE TODAY
Sir Dudley Olenlstcr, suspected of
Ihe murder of' hla cousin, James
Glnnlster, has a atranga caller In
the pcraon of
Simon Trlckey, whoss bloated
face culminates In one big red blob
at th end of hU nose. Trickey'a
plan to blackmail Sir Dudley ta ln
lerrupted by the arrival of
Dr. WiUoughby Melville, and
James Wraggc.
NOW GO OX WITH THE STORY
From under half-closed lids Doc
lor Melville watched for the effect
of this request, apparently ao Ill
timed on hla host.
Sir Dudley walked quickly to his
writing table and filled In a "bear
er" check for five guineas.
"There you are, sir," he aald,
handing it to the black-coated can
vasser. "I don't mind parting to
a gentleman who asks pretty, but
I'll be hanged if I shell out to a
blackguard who tries to 'bluff me."
"Now I wonder," mused Inspec
tor Wragge presently as he atrolled
down the drive after pocketing the
check and thanking the donor. "I
wonder whether a man who de
serves to be hanged would refer to
the operation so lightly. I also won
der who the red-nosed blackmailer
is. Tosslbly I shall have the pleas
ure of traveling back to town In the
same train wdth him."
And aa he made his way to the
railway atatlon he further reflected
on his good fortune in having met
at the lodge gates the West End
specialist who had treated him for
"nerves." '
Meanwhile Doctor Melville was
taking leave of his host in spite of
blustering requests that he should
remain.
"Out of the question," he resisted
firmly. "My patients have first call
on me. Besides, I can't be of any
use to you here, now that the In
quest has let you out. Your best
plan Is to keep quiet and let the
rumors die down, unless there Is
something vital that you are con
cealing from me."
Sir Dudley dropped his eyes be
fore the probing ga7.e.
"No," he said. "No, I haven't
concealed anything from you, Mel
ville. I didn't kill my cousin
George."
Melville shrugged his shoulders
and went away to pack his bag.
His brows were drawn together In
a puzzled frown.
"You may not have killed your
cousin George," he muttered, "but
you have done something, my friend,
that la pretty rotten. And if I am
any judge of physiognomy you con
template doing something else that
won't bear Inspection. It would be
interesting to know what view
Wragge takes. I must look the emi
nent detective up in my case-book
when I get home."
CHAPTER VIII
Violence
The evil which the nerve special
ist believed Plr Dudley to be plot
ting was not long In coming to ma
turity. On the day after Trickey'a
call and Melville's departure from
Beechwood Grange he went to Lon
don and put up at the Millennium
hotel in Piccadilly. On the eame
afternoon he had a taxi called and
gave the driver the address of Lady
Marrables in Cadogan Gardens.
Kathleen and her dowager guard
ian, after being practically turned
out of the Grange, had ostensibly
resumed their normal existence.
All Kathleen's old suspicions of
her cousin Dudley had been revived
by the weird incident In the Beech
wood coverts. The trouble was that
she did not know to whom to turn
for aid. That local wiseacre, Ser
geant Mitchell of the county police,
had agreed with the verdict of the
'jury and she was Ignorant that
Scotland Yard was interested.
She had forgotten Mr. Stephen
Colne's offer to Sir Dudley of his
official influence in that direction,
but the offer had not been made to
her and She was reluctant to ap
proach the cabinet minister. There
remained only her lover, Norman
Slater.
And then, about the time that
'Sir Dudley was leaving Ills hotel to
call at Cadogan Gardens, a dis
reputable stranger was ushered in
who revived her drooping hopes.
A discreet and elderly parlormaid
answered Sir Dudley's ring and In
formed him that her ladyship was
not at home. Yes, Miss Glenlster
waa in, but for the moment ahe
wns engaged with another per
son. Struck by the woman's tone, the
baronet inquired if the person was
anyone be was likely lo know.
"Hardly, I should think, air, ex
cept perhaps In the way of busi
ness," was the demure reply. "He
looks like a dog fancier. I don't ex
pect he will be long, if you will
come in and wait."
Sir Dudley accepted the Invita
tion and was shown Into a 'cloak-and-hat
room, whence he had a
view of the hall. He had not been
there two minutes when he heard
steps descending the stalra. A mo
ment, later the paflormaid crossed
his line of vision, conducting Mr.
Simon Trlckoy, red-bulbed-nose,
loud-check suit and all complete, to
the front door.
The baronet started up to Inter
cept hia former clerk, checked the
Impulse and waited till the maid
appeared to take him upstairs to
the drawing-room. When he was
announced Kathleen as folding
and placing In her purse a altp of
paper. She completed the operation
carefully before she deigned to no
tice her latest visitor.
"Well?" she said, looking up at
last, "this la an unexpected honor
after being turned out of the
Grange ao recently."
Evidently this was to be a duel
sans mercl on either side.
"I had to ask my guests to leave
because most of them were con
spiring against me," replied ir
Dudley. "You and that puppy Slater
worse than any. But 1 am here to
open the doors el Beechwood

Grange to you again. A genaroua
offer, since I now find that you ara
Intriguing with Simon Trlckey."
"That la kind of you," mapped
Kathleen, "But I am not at all aure
that I want to have the doora of
the Grange opened to me, 1
shouldn't foel very aafe there."
Glenlster took a step forward,
his huge bulk towering ever the
Urn girl who confronted him, cool
and unafraid.
"Let me make It clear to you,"
he replied. "I want you to come
back to the Grange aa my wife, You
wdll be aorry If you don't. I want
you because our marriage would be
the best answer to the suspicions
you have done your best to foster
tho suspicion that I murdered
your brother."
"Well, didn't yon?" aald Kath
leen dryry.
"I will take my oath I didn't."
"If you didn't do it with your
own hands you caused hla death."
This new allegation seemed for
tho fraction of a second to discon
cert the accused.
"I will take my oath that I never

saw George Glenlster, alive or dead,
after he went to America."
"And I don't believe yon on oath
or anyhow," retorted Kathleen. "I
am as firmly convinced that you
are responsible for my brother's
death and that he died at Beech
wood as if I had seen you kill him.
As to marrying you, the proposition
would have been almost as absurd
if all this had not happened."
The baronet had recovered.
"Then let us come to grips!" he
broke out. "Here is my ultimatum
If you don't marry me I will make
your name socially damned up and
down the land. Captain Slater Was
seen to come out of your room late
at night."
"You beast!" her fresh young
voice found vent at last. "The true
story of that night would do you
far more harm than me. You know
very well what Captain Slater and
I set out to discover, and how we
were thwarted because you heard
us following. In a day or two I
shall be able to tell the world
and Incidentally the police a good
deal more about you. Oh, Norman,
you are just in time."
The last sentence was addressed
to Captain Slater, who had entered
the drawing-room. The young sol
dier took in the situation at a
glance. Here was all the material
for a most lovely row.
"What am I in time for? What's
the racket-?" he Inquired quietly
and with a measuring eye on the
a few crisp words Kathleen
told him how her cousin had made
her an offer of marriage and de
scribed in Dudley's own language
the alternative he had threatened.
Norman listened till the unpleas
ant recital ceased, and then there
commenced such a scene as Lady
Marrables' decorous drawing-room
had never been set for In all Its
humdrum history. Norman's rush
was that of a maddened bull and
would have been his own undoing
had Glenister been an adept in the
art of self-defense. Quickly recog
nizing that he might be courting
disaster, Norman checked his ex
uberance and Introduced a little
science into his method. Two or
three sledgehammer blows did the
bigger man aim, but they fell on
empty air and thence onwafd the
fracas became a brutal assault..
Up and down the room Sir Dud
ley stumbled, kicking over furniture
and crashing Into low-hung pic
tures, with his agile, assailant ever
In pursuit a,nd administering pun
ishment to the handiest part of hia
anatomy. His curses gave way. to
labored breathing and finally he
crumpled up and lay sprawling
over the end of a couch.
"There, you swine!" said the easy
victor. "That'll teach you."
Hefore the lesson to be learned by
Sir Dudley could be defined the
door was opened and a man Btcpped
In rather hurriedly. He wore eide
whlskers and a mustache, and
dressed in a suit of drab reach-me-downs.
He bore no resemblance to
the clean-shaven cleric who had
called at Beechwood Grange on be
half of the Mission to Blackfoot
Indians, and his voice was like the
crack of a whip.
