61 '474,
Darby nodded. "I arranged that,
my lord, since the forged letter made
so free with your lordship's name and
that of the present Lord Garvington,
As you probably saw, it was only
stated that the late Sir Hubert had
gone to meet his secretary at The
Manor and that Miss Greeby, know-
ing of his coating, had shot him. The
motive was ascribed as anger at the
late Sir Hubert for having lost 0
great auto of money which Miss
Greeby entrusted to him for the pur-
pose of speculation."
"And is it true that such money
was entrusted and lost?"
"Perfectly true, my lord. I saw in
that fact a chance of hiding the real
truth. It would do no good to make
the forged tetter public and would
east discredit both on the dead and
the living. Therefore all that Inas been
said does not even hint at the trap
laid by Silver. Now that all parties
concerned are dead and burled, no
more will be heard of the natter, and
your lordship can sleep in peace."
The young man walked up and
down the room for a few minutes
while the inspector made ready to de-
part. Noel was deeply touched 11y the
man's consideration and made up his
mind that he should not lose by the
delicacy he had shown in preserving
his name and that of Agnes from the
tongue of gossips. He saw plainly
that Darby was a man he could thor-
oughly trust and forthwith did so.
"Mr. inspector," he said. coming
forward to shake bands, "you have
acted in a most kind and generous
manner and I cannot slum my ap-
preciation of your behavior more than
by telling you the exact truth of this
sad affair."
"I know the truth," said harby
staring.
"Not the exact truth. which closely
concerns the honor of my family, 13th
as you have saved that by suppressing
certain evidence it is only right that
you should know more than you do
know."
"I shall keep quiet anything that
you tell me, my 1ord." said Darby
greatly pleased; "that is, anything
that is consistent with my official
duty."
"Of course. Also I wish you to know
exactly how matters stand. since
there may be trouble with Chaldea."
"Oh. 1 don't think so. my lord. Chal-
dea has married that dwarf."
"Kara. the Servian gypsy?"
"Yes. She's given him a bad time.
and he put up with it because he had
no authority over her: but now that
she's his romi—as these people call a
wife—he'll make her dance to his
playing. They left England yesterday
for foreign parts—Hungary, I fancy,
my lord. The girl won't ccome bark in
a hurry. for Kara will keep to eye on
her."
Lambert drew a long breath of re-
lief. "I ana glad," he said simply. "as
I never should have felt safe while
elm remained in England."
"Felt safe?" echoed the officer sus-
piciously.
His host nodded and told the man
to take a seat again. Then. without
wasting further time, he related the
real truth about the forged letter,
Darby Iisened to the recital 111
amazement and shook his head sadly
over the delinquency of the late Lord
Carrington.
"Well! Well!" said the inspector
staring, "to think as a nobleman
bora and bred should act in this
way,"
"Why shouldn't a noblemen be
wicked as well as the tradesman?"
said Lambert impatiently, "and ac•
c'm'dlug to the socialistic press all the
evil of humanity is to be found in
aristocratic circles. However, you
know the exact truth, Mr. Inspeetor.
and I have confided to you the secret
which concerns the honor of 101' fans
ily. You won't abuse my confidence."
Darby rose and extended his hand,
"You may be sure of teat, my lord,
What you have told me will never be
repeated. Everything in connection
with tilts platter is finished, and you
will hear no more about -it."
"I'm glad and thankful," said the
other, again drawing a breath of re-
lief, "and to show my appreciation of
your services, 17arby. I shall send you
a substantial check,"
"Oh, my 10rd. I cotldu't take it. 1
only did my duty."
"I think You did a great deal more
than that," answered the new Loral
Garvington dryly, "and had you acted
entirely on the eviden'e you gathered
together, and especially on the con-
fession ofthatmiserable woman, you
might have made public much that 1
would prefer to keep private. 'Fake
the money front a friend. Darby, and
se a mark of esteem for a man."
"Thank you, my lord." replied the
inspector straightly. "I don't deny but
what 01y conscience aid my duty to
the Government will allow 111e to take
it slime you put it in that way. And
las- 1 am not. 11 rich titan the melte)*
will bo w'eleome. Thank you."
With a warns hand -shake the in•

offered up a silent prayer of thane -
fulness to God that things had turned
out so admirably, His shifty cough)
was now dead and there w'as no long-
er danger that. the honor of the fam-
ily, for which so much had been sac-
rificed, both by himself and Agnes,
would be smirched. The young plan
regretted the death of Mother Cockle-
shell, who had been so well disposed
toward his wife and himself, but he
rejoiced that Chaldea had left Eng•
land under the guardianship of Kara.
as henceforth-- if he knew anything
of the dwarf's jealous disposition --
the girl would trouble him no more.
And Silver was dead and buried.
which slid away with any possible
trouble from that quarter. Finally.
poor Miss Greeby, who had sinned
for love, was out of the way and there
was no need to be anxious on her
account. Fate had made a clean sweep
of all the actors in the tragedy. and
Lambert hoped that this particular
play was ended.
When the inspector went away.
Lord Garvington sought out his wife
and his late cousin's widow. To them
he remote 11811 that had passed and
gave them the joyful assurance that
nothing more would be heard in eon -

Both ladies were delighted.
"Poor Freddy." sighed Agnes, who
had quite forgiven her brother now
that he had paid for his sins, "he be-
haved very badly; all the same he
had his good 50ithts, Noel,"
"Alt, he had, he had," said Lady Gals
vington, the widow, shaking her un-
tidy head, "he was selfish and greedy,
and perhaps not so lttought-ful as be
plight have been, bet there are worse
people than poor Freddy:"
Noel could not help smiling at this
somewhat guarded eulogy of the dead
but did not pursue the subject, "Well,
Jane, you must not grieve too much:'
"No, I shall not," she admitted
bluntly, "I ant -going to be quiet for a

"shall I bother about the kitchen. 1
shall burn Terecldy's recipes and cook•

Lady Oarviugton evidently really
felt relieved by the - death of her
greedy little husband, although she
tried iter best to appeal' S0i'ry. But
the twinkle of relief in her eyes be-
trayedher, and neither Noel nor
Agues could blame her. She had
enough to live on --since the new lord
bad arranged this in a most generous
manner—and she was free from the
cares of the kitchen.
"So iel go to London in a few days
when I've packed up," said the widow
nodding, "you two dears can stay
here for your secoud honeymoon."
"It willbe concerned with pounds,
shillings, and pence, then," said Ag-
nes with a smile, "for Noel has to
get the estate put in order, Things
are very bad just now, as 1 know for
certain, But we must try to save The
Manor from going out of the family."
1t was at this moment, and while
the trio wondered how the financial
condition of the Lamberts was to be
improved. that a message carne saying
that Mr. Jarwin wished to see Lord
and Ludy Garvington in the library.
Wondering what the lawyer had conte
about, and dreading further bad news,
111e young couple descended, leaving
the widow to her packing up. They
found the lean, dry solicitor waiting
for them with a smiling face,
"010" said Agnes as she greeted
him, "then it's not bad pew's?''
"On lee contrary," said Jarwin,
with his cough, "it is the best of
news."
Noel looped at 11in1 hard. "The best
of news to me at the present nue
meat would be information about
money," he said slowly. "I have a
title, it is true, but the estate is en-
cuntbered."
"You need not trouble about that.
Lord Garvington; Mrs. Stanley has
put all that right."
"What?" asked Agnes greatly agi-
tated. "Has she made over the mort-
gages to Noel? Oh, if she only has."
"She has done better than that,"
remarked Jarwin. producing a paper
of no great size. "this is her will. She
wanted to make a deed of gift, and
probably would have done so had she
lived. But luckily she made the will—
aud a hard-and-fast one It Is—for I

RADIO HAS ITS OWN SIGN LANGUAGE
The language of radio is a complex system of signals such as those demonsstrated here by Ernest Mo1ga11, producer of 010511151 programmes of 11111 WIC''
Vancouver studios. These action pictures, taken in the studios during a broadcast, illustrate the code with which the producer or director of a, programme
keeps things Tutoring smoothly. They are the eilent communication between direatoi', orchestra leader; oast, announcers and engineers, In this above panda
Morgan is shown, first, signalling to the orchestra conductor to "stretch it out" because the programme is running ahead of scheduled time; then the
"cut" signal, in this case meaning to omit an extra chorus in a musical selection; thirdly, the sign "on the noae," signifying that the production is pro•
ceeding as planned; and, finally; the "okay" and the smile, of satisfaction. The show is off the air and• to producer's liking,
