When Jenny Pendean's husband, Michael, disappears, her uncle, Robert Redmayne, is suspected of murder. Mark Brendon is in charge of the case. Robert remains at large. Jenny goes to live with her uncle, Bendigo Redmayne. Robert visits the neighborhood of Bendigo's home and. sends word for Ms brother to meet him in a nearby cave. Giuseppe Doria, who works for Bendigo, leaves his master at the meeting place. When Darla calls to bring Bendigo home he finds both men have disappeared. There is evidence of a. struggle in the empty dive. Jenny marries Doria and goes to Iive in Italy, where her uncle, Albert Redmayne, lives. When Robert ap- pears in Italy, Brendon and AIbert's friend, Peter Ganns, American detec- tive, renew investigations. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY. "He told the unfortunate man that he must appear by day. Ernesto then mentioned a certain place, a mile from here in a s..uded valley -a little bridge that spans a stream -and di- rected Robert to await his brother at that spot on the following day at. noon. This my Uncle Alberto had already planned in the event of his brother reappearing. "Having heard this, the red man departed without more words and your friend, greatly courageous, kept the appointment that he had made, taking only me with him. We were there before midday and waited until after two , el -eau ereesedyea s- us and we saw neither man nor wo- man." Peter listener intently to these words. "And what of your meeting with him?" he asked. "That was clearly an accident on Robert Redma Jibe's p..rt. I happened to be walking, deep in thought near the spot where my wife first saw him, and, rounding a corner, i suddenly confronted the man sitting on a rock by the path. He started at my foot- fall, looked up, clearly recognized me,. hesitated, and then leaped into the bushes." "How was be dressed?" "Exactly as I saw bum dressed at `Crow's Nest' where Mr. Bendigo Red- mayne disappeared." "I should like to know his tailor," said Mr. Ganns. "That's a useful suit he wears." "Now, Peter, tell us all that is in your mind," urged Mr. Redmayne as he poured out five little glasses of gol- den liqueur. "You hold that I go in some peril from this unhappy man?" "I do think so, Albert. And as to my mind, it is not by any means made: up." Ganns spoke again. "There has been mention made of Mr. Bendigo's lag. He kept a careful diary -so it was reported. I shouldlike to have that book, Albert, for in your state- ment you tell me that you preserved "r did and it is here," replied his friend. "That and dear Bendigo's 'Bible,' as I call it -a copy of `Moby Dick' -I brought away. As yet I have• not consulted the diary it was too Carry it al afs with t, i intimate and distressed rue. But I zeas looking forward to doing so." "The parcel containing both books is in a drawer in the library. I'll gat them" said Jenny. She left the apart- ment where they sat overlooking the lake and returned immediately with a parcel wrapped in brown paper. But whether Bendigo's diary might have proved valuable remained a mat- ter of doubt, for when Jenny opened the parcel, it was not there. A blank book and the famous novel were all the parcel contained. "But I packed it myself," said Mr. Redmayne. "The diary was bound ex- actly ,as this blank voliune is bound, yet it is certain that I made no mis- take, for I opened my brother's log and read a page or two before com- pleting the parcel." "He had bought a new diary only the last time he was in Dartmouth," said Doria. "I, remember the incident I asked him what he was going to put into the book, and he said that his log was just running out and he needed a new volume," "Then the one has been substituted for the other by somebody else. That is a very interesting fact, if true." He took upp the empty volume and turned its pages;; then Brendon declar- ed they must be going. uI.'an afraid were keeping Mr. Roll- rriilayne out of bed, Ganns," he hinted, "Our kits have already been sent to the hotel and as we've got a mile to Walk, we'd better be moving." But Peter spoke and surprised them, 9'm afraid you're going to prod me this sort of friend that stieketh closer than e. brother, Albert. In a word, somebody must go to the hotel and bring back my traveelier'grip, for I'nr not going to lose sight of you again till i7ve'vo got this thing straightened out,," Mee Redmayne was delighted. "How like you, Peter -how typical of your attitude! You shall not leave me, dear friend. You shall sleep in the -apartment next my own. It con- tains many books, but there shall be my great Bouch moved from my own bedroom and set up there in half an hour. It is as comfortable as a bed," He turned to his niece. "Seek Assume and Ernesto and set the apartment in order for Mr. Ganns, Jenny; and you, Giuseppe, will tctiko `And Draw I am ready to talk to you, Mr. Ganns." Mr. Brendon to the Hotel Victoria and bring back Peter's luggage." Jenny hastened to do her uncle's bidding, while Brendon made his fare- well and promised 'to return at an early hour on the following morning. "My plans for to -morrow," said Peter, "subject to Mark's approval, are these. I suggest that Signor Doria. should take Bre_ ndon to the scene in the hills where Robert Redmayne ap- peared; while, by her leave, I,have a talk with Mrs. Jenny here." CHAPTER, XIII. VTR SoDoliM Rr:rvoN'ra kiliCaLAND. Peter Gann sat treat day and spoke to Albert Itedineyrie.on a little gallery that extended from the dining room of the villa and overhung the lake. Here, for half an hour, he talked and listen- ed urttil Jenny .hould be ready for hint, They set the world right together and their thoughts- drifted leto a re- gion of benignant uepiretions, Then Bane Jenny and presently the detective followed her inte a garden of flowers behind Villa Pianezno. "Giuseppe and Mr. Brendon hove gond to the hills," she said, "And. now I am ready to talk to you, Mr, Ganns." He looked'at her beautiful face 'in- tently, "Show me the silkworms,"' he said. They entered the lofty shed rising above a thicket behind the villa -a shuttered apartment where twilight reigned. "Never mummy was wound so ex- quisitely as the silkworneseehrysalis,,t said Peter; and Jeney chatted cheer- fully about the silken industry and its varied interests, but found that Mr. Ganns could tell her much more thane- she han-she was able to tell him. He listened with attention, (however, and only by gradual stages deflected conversation to the affairs that had. brought him. I"resently he indicated an aspect of her own position. "Did it ever strike you that it was a bold thing to marry within little more than nine monhts of your first husband's disappearance, Mrs. Doria?" he asked. - "It did not; but I shivered when I heard you talking yesterday. And call me `Jenny,' not 'Mrs. Doria,' Mr. Ganns." "Love has always been very impa- tient of law," he declared; "but the fact is that unless proof of an excep- tional character can be submitted, the English law is not prepared to say of any man that he is dead' until seven years have passed from the last record of him among the living. Now there is rather a serious difference between seven years and nine months, Jenny." She looked at him with a face full of unhappiness. "r can trust you. You are wise and know life. I have not married a man, but a devil)" He took snuff and listened, while the unfortunate woman raved of her error. Minarets Liniment for dandruff, .44444444.4.444... THE.

The dim, mouldy, carpeted parlor is being replaced by the sun -room and the sanitary hardwood floors, and• the question of light and air in our homes is now conceded first place. How can we build to get most sunlight and the best views -and bring all out doors into our rooms -is the question of the day. The adequate heating of our homes is now possible warm air and hot water superceding the old base your sunny walls and out openings to let in the sunlight. The plan of each room in your new home should be carefully oonsidered as to the right location of the win- dows, in order to give proper wall -and floor space for the furniture. The liv- ing room can be well sunlit from one side, with a four or five light mullioned window, and small openings on each side -of the fireplace: Bedroom windows, two if possible, must be placed so as to give proper light to the dressing table, and so that L EVATICIII B• @LA° iflNC'z•B00 as designing goes, is without doubt, its adaptabtliiy to grouping in the rooms, as well as for heights in stair halls, thus allowing great variety in applica- tion and design. As far as the weath- er is concerned, the easement can be made as .serviceable as the lifting sash, by means of metal weather stripping.. Care should be given in the selection of snitahe hardware, on which de- pends the entire service of this style of window -as is evidenced by the types used by the metal casement sash manufacturers. 7-`10B E:DR DOIMIS -•.i0BEDRD®MS re iec::f �.^r Inane:. -luta « ;';t tc.� l ...,•,• • null r .clan 6 ,safely have a few more window open- ings it oar rooms, without dread of Icold houses.

What you have told me SF to your relations with your Italian husband ,offers considerable food for thought. Does Giuseppe know that you no longer love him?" "I have hid it. The time has'not come to let him know that. He would be revenged, and God knows what form his revenge might take. Till I have escaped from him, he must not dream that I have changed." They parted presently and Jenny returned to the house, while the de- tective, finding a comfortable chair under an oleander bush, sniffed the :fragrance of the red' blossom -above hirer, regretted that his vice had large- ly spoiled his sense of smell, took snuff and opened his notebook. He wrote in it steadily for half an ,iieur;: then he rose and joined Albert Redmayne. The elder was full cf an approach- ing event. - "To think that to -day you and Pog- gi meet!" he exclaimed. "Peter, my dear man, if you do not love Virgilio I shall be broken-hearted." "Albert," 'answered Mr ^ "I have have already Ioved Poggi. for two years. Those you love, I love; and that means thatourfriendship is on a very high plane indeed; for it often happens that nothing puzzles us more infernally than our friends' friends. By the same token, how much do ;you love your niece?" Mr. Redmayne did not answer in- stantly.. n-stantly.. "I love her," he replied at length, "because I love everything that is lovely; and without prejudice T do honestly believe she is about the love- liest, young woman I have ever seen.
