heart was only pity for the woman
who had suffered so much.

For a few moments my mind work-
ed in the midst of confusion. Save
her, somehow, I must, but the problem
did not at once resolve itself very
clearly. It was no use to tel her to
run away. She Would be caught. It
is a testimony to my disturbance that
the solution did not come to me until
the woman, with a profound sigh, let
herself sink back, while from her
weak hand the revolver fell upon the
floor. I pulled her to her feet. I
realized that it must be getting light,
that something must be done now:
"Look here," I said. "I don't know
you. I didn't know him. I don't care
whether you killed him or not, but I'll
help you."
"Yes," she said, looking up at me.
In the beautiful green eyes lay ehild-
ish trust and complete wearinees
I puked up the revolver: "There's
only ono way. We must make it look
ea if he committed suicide."
"Yes," she said, listlessly,
"Will you wait here for a moment.
while I . . arrange things?" She nod-
ded, but just as I reached the desk
and its ghastly oceupant I heard her
footsteps behind me. She dared not
remain alone. I caught a glimpse of
her now and then, as I fitted the fin-
gers about the 'weapon. I managed
to curl the little finger M make firm
the grip of the nerveless hand. Yes,
it was complete. Then I was surpris-
ed to hear behind me a hysterical lit-
tle laugh, and the woman's voice say-
ing: "He was left-handed." I could
not help maple through my horror at
this revival of the spirit of self-
preservation, and shifted the revolver
to the left hand.
"Now," I said, turning to her. "It's
quite aimple. Where does your doc-
tor live?"
It seemed a long thne before Doc -1
tor Felstead came. I had had trouble'
r with him over the 'telephone, for he
did not seem to understand how a
✓ person who was riot a patient should
want him so early in the morning. At
t last, I made him realize that there
d, was a casualty; he arrived at twenty
t to seven. Alt that time I had been

"What? How?" I asked.
"Oh, it's quite clear." I was too

now, for I saicidn an even tone: "Of

Perhaps the most curious of these
old standards wee the inch in the reign
of Henry of enry EEngland. In 1224 the
rule was laid down -that three barley-
corns equal one inch; The barleycorns
were to be dry and were to be taken
from the middle of the ear and, laid
end to end, The rule continued that
12 inches equal one foot; 3 feet equal
one ell or ulna; 53 ulna. equal 00-0
perch; 40 perchee.long and 4 in
breadth equal one ALCM The measure-
ment or land therefore depended on
the fundamental unit of ,barleycorn.
One can readily see the multiplication
of error which must result in the mea-
surement of land anti the trouble it
would cause in this age' where city
frontage often reaches a value of sev-
eral tacresand dollars a foot.
