MERRY MENAGERIE
Easter Egg
Hatches Proposal „„,
Wedding proents were ar-
riving iv every post et the
heetletelse home of the anbern-
heired girl who was to wed: her
doetoe-fienea an Easter Monday.
txtetedlys the slim bride-to-be
unwrapped them,
would receive such a rich Yaris
She bad never drearnect she
and They incleded at
Oy of gifts front her relatives
friends,
least half a dozen presents in
eaeltets and containers shaped
like 'Easter Ws,
One "egg" contained a 500s
dollar cheque from, her favour-
ite aunt in California, Another,
when opened, revealed a costly
pearl necklace, the gift of a
Well-to-do girl friend.
There was a sudden knock at
the door. A uniformed tneseene
gee had arrived with yet another
Easter egg, magnificently weep-
pest in green and gold paper.
The girl. was surprised to find
-no clue as to wile had sent it.
It was a traditional Easter egg
made of chocolate—bardly the
present a girl would expect for
her wedding, but thin did not
worry her. But she WES pil?zled
about the identity of the donor.
The chocolate looked tempting
to eat. She had just begun to
break the egg; when her bride-
groom arrived. The pair kissed
lovingly and She began to show
him the gifts.
• She pointed to the chocolate
egg, "Let's eat it now," she said,
offering him a piece.
He took it—then had a sudden
bunch,
"Don't eat ie," he said.' "I've
a feeling three something qeeer
about this cliteolate. Let me take
it up to the laboratory for anal-
ysis.;
He teas back in less than an
hour
"Darling, he said gravely,
taking the girl in his arms, 'net
egg contains enough poison to
kill half a dozen people!"
The police were informed and
attempts were made to trace the
uniformed messenger, He has
never been found.
But the young doctor has his
own, theory as to who sent the
deadly egg. A yes earlier, while
on holiday alsroatr, he had met a
woman wl fell in love with
him, thoughfor him the affair
was no more than a chance hol-
iday friendship.
It is possible, however, that
this temperamental wpman,
• learning of his forthcoming mar-
riage to the American girl, had
become insanely jealous and had
sent the egg to the girl's ,home
in a dastardly attempt to kill- her
and thus rob the doctor of hap-
piness.
Easter eggs have been linked
with love and romance for cen-
turies. One romantic Spaniard
hit on the idea of proposing
marriage to a dainty French girl
he had first met at a Montmartre
dancing club .
He paid a confectioner $250 to
prepare a special egg covered
with silk. Inside it he placed his
proposal of marriage, enclosing
also a diamond engagement ring.
The pretty Parisienne found the
offer irresistible and' the couple
were wed on Easter Sunday.
On view in a Berlin museum
before the war was an iron Eas-
ter egg which had a curious
story. One of the early German
princes had fallen in love with
a princess so when Easter came
• he sent her the egg With a let-
ter telling her of his love.
The princess -was feed of lux-
ury and lovely things and the
sight of an ugly' iron egg so an-
noyed' her that she flung it to
the ground. "
The .impact caused. a secret
spring in the egg to give way
revealing a silver lining and a
golden yolk inside. Ill the yolk
was A . annall crown of rare rubies.
"The princese's annoyance
was quickly changed to delight
and before the Easter festivities.

Webster. "Go and buy one—and
charge it to me,"
Till that moment. Eph had: al-
ways ranked We doctor as the
meanest medico in the world.
What lay behind this change of
heart? Scratching his head, Eplt.
tried to visualize every detail of
the scene earlier that day as
detectives -searcheg the labora-
tory,"rhere was one tiny detail
that had not seethed important
at the time.
Eph sighed with chagrin when
be realized that the forgotten de-
tail was even more unrerhark-
able than he imagined, It was
nothing more than a tattered old
rug, which he had not seen be-
fore, that covered part of the
floor, •
The next moment, his eyes
e:laze, Eph ran to tell big wife
of his discovery. Beneath the
laboratory was a vault .which
had long been closed and sealed.
And with horror Eph remem-
bered that one day, months be-
fore, Dr. Webster had asked him
casually whether the vault was
in good repair.
What was worse, the only en-
trance was through the Roar of
the laboratory by the trapdoor
Webster kept covered with a
rug.
Then Eph realized there was
another way in. He tobk spade,
pick and chisel, and tried to bur-
row his way through the solid
wall.
His wife kept watch but Eph
was interrupted so many times
that by the end of the day he
had moved only a few bricks,
Next day he made faster pro-
gress and finally the last stone
was moved.
Shinibg a light into the vault
Eph discerned the horror he had
always feared. The lamp glowed
on the severed legs and torso of
a man.
Dr. Webster was clapped'into
jail within the hour. In a medi-
cal school, however, it was' not
unprecedented to find a dismem-
bered corpse, and the police
knew they would face a tough
task in proving it to be that of
Dr. Parkman.
In the furnace were found
ether grim relics—splinters of
charred bone, a fused and dam-
aged set of false teeth. Dr. Web-
ster had tried to ensure that no
vital clue to his crime was left.
Having thrown the severed
remains into the vault, he had
been slowly disposing of them.
He had got rid of the hands and
Skull; but painstakingly the sci-
entists tried to piece the other
fragments together,
By careful meastrement they
could only say that the victim
had been of about Parkman's
height and weight.
But it was Eph. Littlefield
who sucessfully wound up the
case, Hearing of the disedvery
of the teeth he went to the local
dentist. And the dentist at once
eecognized them as a set he had
made for Dr. Parkman,
The teeth still exactly fitted
the original mould in his posses-
sion. A deep irregularity on the

Sprawled full length, care-
taker Eph Littlefield peered un-
der -the deer of Dr. John Web-
ster's laboratory. All be could
see was the doctor's feet moving
betweefi the table and the furn-
ace. All he could hear was the
soft shuffle of the doctor's shoes
and water continuously flowing
from the tap,
But there was something .else
. . . a faint but rather frightens
ing smell . , the pungent, re-
pellent odour of learning flesh.
Eph had never known the
furnace to be lit besore. But now
it was so hot that at one part
of the building it could be felt
through the wall. For a week Dr.
Webster had hardly emerged
from his rooms. And through all
that week another of the Har-
vard Utiiversity professors, Dr,
George Parkman, had been
missing without trace.
In , the distant year 1.349 Har-
vard rocked with the riddle. At
noon on a foggy November day,
lean Dr. Parkman had been seen
walking rapidly towards the
medics., college on his way to a
business appointment with some
person unknown . . . but it was
as if he had been whisked off
the earth.
The police searched through
the college buildings: They drag-
ged a near-by elver. They lit-
tered, the town with. reward bills.
Lured by a witness who thought
he had seen Dr. Parkman in the
neighbourhood, they scoured a
wheat warehouse and practically
emptied it of grain.
And all the while Dr. Web-
ster remained in his laboratory,
engroased in his experiments,
When he emerged, locking the
door carefully behind him, a
tubby, beetle-browed little man
gazing blandly through steel-
rimmed spectacles, he was able
to throw very little light on
Parkman's movements.
But he admitted that he was
the business contact whom
Parkman had been going to see.
He had owed Parkman a large
sum of money, he explained, and
had undertaken to repay it. At
noon, on November 23rd Park-
man had duly called, had re-
ceived the money and had re-
ceipted the deed of mortgage.
With these disclosures Dr.
Webster returned to the labora-
tory, locked the .doors behind
him and renewed his secret la-
bours, The police investigations
veered on a -new tack. t Dr.
Parkman had :left Dr. Webster
with a large , sum of money on
him it increescd the probability
of murder with a motive of
theft.
Only Elite Littlefield, the care-
taker, was not so sure, . •
Finding spare keys, Eph, tried
-them in the laboratory doors
and discovered they were bolted
as well as locked against him.
Ile watched Dr. Webster's 'heavy
inroads on the fuel store, noticed
the frequent' use of kindling,
constantly tried the warmth , of
tho wall where the, furnace, roared day and night.
What was happening in the
lab? Eph was sure he would
solve the mystery one day when,
the doctor was at lectures.
Climbing through a window high
in the Wall of the laboratory, he
lowered himself gently. The fur-
nace was alight but Eph found
it was hot a very large fire.
Yet some barrels of kindling
were missing. 'And there was
something else, absent—a heavy
sledgeharemar ,which Eph had
noticed standing in a corner
when he last-=cleaned the rooni.
On steps leaping from the
room Eph's sharp eyes also spot-
ted stains. Putting his tongue
to the stains, he detected the
sharp sting of acid.
That night the furnace burned
warmer and Webster seemed to
work later into the night than
ever. The next day the police
had decided to launch a house-
to-house search, beginning at
the spot where Parkrnan had
last 'been seen — in Webster's
laboratory.
Webster himself unbolted the
door, opened cupboards and
storerooms, explained that the
furnace had been used to burn
dissection rubbish. The detec-
tives were satisfied.
But Eph was more puzzled
than ever that evening—the eve
of the Thanksgiving festival —
whet' he ran into Webster by
chance,
"Have you bought your
Thanksgiving turkey yet?" said'
