Secret Gardens -
I hope there are not many who

green fields of England—the fair,
lovable country that is the most sat-

sessed those woods and valleys and

spirit of the English tradition. But
'whether it would appear for others

top of a narro v lane which climbs
from the little hamlet of Spain, It
was enobanted ground, enclosed from
the world as from the bright fields
that skirled its edge, until the wood-
cutters came and the Sound of the
axe and the voicee ravished that love-
ly listening silence that was differ-
entfrom tall the other silences 1 have
ever known.

When I confided to him that 1

would "do," what would travel well
through the Tropics, what the exile
would eagerly welcome, and a few

Cavanaugh, criminal psychologist, learns
Bleu, married lite has been very unhappy.
Peter Piper, a Ifeh'ald reporter, while
trying to interview Dr. Ca,anaugh
meets .Barbara Cavanaugh. and finds that
ehe was engaged to Don Ellsworth be-
fore his marrsage.
Dr, Cavanaugh identifies the :the burn•

,this, Mrs. Kane, ;Sheila's maid, is arrest-

safe.
CHAPTER XXVI.
"Whew!" Peter 'exhaled his pent
breath in a long, whistling sigh. "So
Ellsworth's , made off with the evi-
dence that his marriage wasn't pre-
cisely a love match. Not that I blame
him for disliking the lady. I think
I'd have disliked her considerably, my-
self."
"It looks that way." Dr. Cavanaugh
stared gloomily into the empty rave
ity. "I'm sorry. It doesn't prove
anything, of course."
"Wen, it's rather an indication, isn't
it? It shows that Ellsworth thought
the information contained in those
papers was dangerous—and it
wouldn't be dangerous unless it led to
something he wanted to hide. He
wasn't aware that the Kane woman
knew about it, of course."
"Precisely," Dr. Cavanaugh agreed
wearily. His face with its deeply
graven lines looked suddenly older.
"I wish he'd thought of that. It's the
mistake so many people make—the
mistake of not realizing that conceal-
ment, whatever the motive, is bound
to be taken as you've taken it. And
it makes it impossible for me to help
hien. If he hadn't already taken these
pagers, I was going to warn hint for
heaven's sake to leave them alone.
I've known him a long while, you
know... I wanted to prevent his doing
a foolish thing—if I could. But now
it's out of -my hands. I can't go to a
man who's possibly guilty and tell
him the wny he ought to proceed to
establish the appearance of inno-
cence."
Peter, his,hands thrust deep in his
pockets, strode to the window and
stared out into the darkness. Narn-
ing? The doctor had meant to warn
Ellsworth.
Had he been warned already—
warned that the papers revealing his
forced .nurriage still existed and were
likely to be found unless he got theni
out of the way? Who could have
warned him—except Barbara? Bar-
bara, who fainted when she learned
that Sheila O'Shay's body had been
found—Barbara, who had once been,
and perhaps still was, in love with
Ellsworth—Barbara, whom Peter.
himself had told of the breachof
promise throat.--Borabra, with the
candid brow and the shining eyes of
a child, Barbara with that wary, with-
drawn look that clefted interpretation
Peter's shoulders dropped dejected-
ly. He felt an irrational indignatir:l
against Sheila O'Shay for getting b •r
self murdered and dragging Bait ra
into it. The sharp sound of the Seale
door dosing recalled him,
"Wo'd better see what else there
is while we're here," the doctor said
with a slight shrug of his shoulders,
us if he were shaking off an intan-
gible weight. "We'll leave Don out
of it fez' the present, and concentrate
on Mrs. Ellsworth. She seems a per-
son who might have left considerable
traces behind here'
"I don't like her," Peter mnnoun'
with great- definiteness, "Too MI
fussiness." He thought suddenly
a girl whose clothes were slim anti
straight, in a robin full of firelight
and orange marigolds. "I wouldn't
have married her if she'd bluffed me
with a dozen breach of promise tufts."
White for Evening
A charming evening ;wrap made
Ion the new linea seen during a
recent fashion show held in Lon-
don.
"Nevertheless; several men old."
"Did—?"
"Marry her. She was a woman of
very devastating charm, and if she
had no conspicuous force of intellect,
she had an unusual force of will. She
always got what she wanted—until,
poor lady, some one rebelled and gave
her what she wanted least of all. 1
did not know her very well, but you
hardly needed to know ber to • see,
that."
"But a woman who kept all that
junk!" Peter's voice vibrated with
youthful and uncomliromising distaste.
He waved a hand toward the dressing
table mirror, whose edges were conn-
pletely bordered with old invitation
cards, dance favors, dinner place -
cards, even the stubs• of theatre tick-
ets.,
"Precisely," the doctor said drily.
"Nothing eelouds the judgment like
Moral disapproval. If you're interest-
ed in finding out who murdered Sheila
O'Shay, it's just possible that you
ought to be grateful for her passion
for hoarding souvenirs."
He bent forward across the dressing
table, made a quick and thorough sur-
veyof the various bits of paper at the
mirror's edge, anti' turned to the small
ornate t'esk with a drop-leaf lid which
stood against the wall,
As he lowered the flap which, when
opened, formed a shelf for writing, a
veritable avalanche of letters, bills,
envelopes and programs cascaded
from the bulging interior.
"I rather thought she was like
that," the doctor mused; with a glance
at the crammed holes. "When Mrs
Kane mentioned that she had caved
the breach of—promise papers. That
was a rather motiveless thing to do.
except for the uncommon type of per.
son who has a sort of collectors' mania
for preserving everyemomento of her
past life. And in that case there
may be other significant mementos. 1
think we'll have to look them over.
Rifling a Iady's desk is not a very nice
occupation; but then, we're investigate
mgthe lady's murder, and murder is
nota very nice occupation either. 1
hardly think we can afford to stand
en etiq.:cite."
Peter sat astride the dressing table

Yungs, his folded arms resting across
Its lots back, and watched the doctor's

toss them in a mounting pile on the
floor at his feet.

"No. He's an irascible young man,

"Yes," agreed ?etet with a grin,

"I told you 'I was a housebreaker,

"Ethel?" Peter rested his chin on

turbable back.

"No power on earth could persuhiie

votion to Ellsworth: It is quite true
that I thought my visit here might be
of benefit to him. • She relished' the no-
tion of the great investigator saving
her master from unjust' suspicion. In
fact, she fairly gloated over the whole
performance, and her own connection
with it. Well, it looks as if every-
body's hopes—yours and mine and
Ithel's—aro pretty well blighted.
The net result of all this is nothing

Before turning in for the night we
strolled along the quay to count the
flashing lights—there were sixteen or
more, as I remember, dominated by
mighty Ar -Men, stenciling on the ivest-
ermost reef, guarding, as our friends
put it° the route to America.
They told us, too, that the French
Have been pioneers in the "science" of
construction of lighthouses, and that
of all the achievements of the engin-
eers, perhaps none is more noteworthy
than the building of Ar -Men, begun in
1567 but not finished for fourteen
years. The first year there were only
eight hours when work was possible,
the next year eighteen boors, and the
time increased as the structure rose
above the level of the waves. Between
the island (Sein) ,and Ar -Men, a dis-
tance of over five miles, extend the
notorious reefs, hidden at high tide,
enown as ',Pout de . •In,"
White are the blinding flashes of Ar-
Meb; white, too, the flashes from Seth,
which, with undeviating regularity,
lighted the ]house walls seen from our
"window, Opposite, across tihe•distant
Raz de Seih, shone the green eye of
Vieille, red or white, when seen from
shore; other lights pricked the sky
like fixed. stars. As I watched, there
aroso from behind the breakwater, be-
yond the sleeping barer, a gibbous
moon, orange as a Breton sail. In its
train, at respectf'•l distance, Venue
'followed, and still later I observed (for,
who can sleep on such a night?) the
faintly gleaming Pleiades.
A silvery path lit by the moon led
temptingly to anchored ships. Only,
the house walls and the shimmering
water were turned to 'atch the full
glare of Sein's glassy eye.
Dawn and high tide brought with
them a frieze of fishermen against a
background of sky and masts and
swirling gulls. Clad in the subtler
blue, never in scarlet, the iishermen,
each with solitary oar on shoulder;
laden with lobster -pots or cork floats,
itrampetl in succession along the dune.
Swift were departdres with the wind.
Sloops slipped from their moorings,
jibs straining, topsails raised with
creaking cordage. Oneby.one the boats
passed from sight into the' mysterious
haze of early morning, Seaweed fires
smouldered along the shore, the smoke
curling skyward. Women hurried by;
carrying flails,- bound for the tiny
stone -walled fields where rye was to
be winnowed. Breaking through bar-
riers of mist, the newly rising sun pro-
claimed another slay.—Amy Oakley, in
"Euchautee Brittany."
'tBy jovel" he murmured; and again
"By love—I wonder nowt"
He had been staring straight be-
fore hint with his ch:n on his folded
arms, his eyes fixed •,n vacancy. But
suddenly he realized what he had
been looking at, all a'ong.
With a bound that tipped the chair
over bebind hint, -ha sprang to the
telephone table and wend the direc-
tory. For fifteen minutes he had
been gazir-g absently ata narrow pro-
jection which marred the smooth line
at the edge of the pages along the
top; and then, in a flash, that little
projection had taken on meaning.
He fluttered the pages in fingers that
trembled, and drew out a letter. Then,
with the single thee; half remove,1
front the jagged tear by which the
envelope had been opened, he paused.
It might be anything—it might be
nothing. But the dcetor had opened
the window to him. Whatever it was,
it belonged to the lector.

voice, Voiding out the nattering slip of

calmly righted the chair behind bine,

GIVING
Some persons give cheerfully ac-
cording to their ability, and such per -
eons leave joy and cause joy in con-
sequence. Other. persons give grudg-
ingly because' they think they most
give something, and want it to be
as little as possible. They have, and
they cause, little Joy in the giving.
They are to be pitied by those who
know the true joy ot iheerful giving.

give according to their means, and
some according to their meanness..
