He had hoped so much from the black -beard- ed Italian with the air of a Corsican bandti that it was hard to have his hopes and flights of imagination thus rudely brought to a halt. "But there's something a little more cheering," went on Taunton. "We did get some information from Francesca. And though it's true that it doesn't take us very far for the present, it sloes give ground for fur- ther enquiries." The Commissioner, who had been sitting bolt upright for the past few minutes, relaxed again. Then there were grains of hope after all. The Chief Inspector brought out a bulky pocket -book and Laid it on the before him. "I think, sir, the best thing I can ask you to do Brett is to read this letter." He drew from the pocket -book a creased sheet of foolscap paper, which he carefully unrolled from a piece of oiled silk which he lead a seri to protect it. "Then at least you will see that I've not just been hav- ing delusions." And General Berwick, after he had read the first few lines, began to see the force of Taunton's sugg ee tion about delusions. He took the letter and laid it carefully on his blotting pad, produced a pair of horn -rimmed reading glasses, and be- gan to study it. The `sheet on which the letter wt written was a piece of ordinary, blue -lined, ruled foolscap, rather dirty and considerably frayed at the edges. The writing was in ink which had began rather to fade, and the style was neat, very upright, with each letter carefully formed, and giving the impression that the writer had tried to disguise his usual hand. There was no eoniplete address. , lxcuso lee, sir," said Taunton, "But before you begin to read the letter itself I think it would be a good idea to look at the ltewspaper cutting pinned to it." "Sorry," said the Cmm�,issioncr, "I hadn't noticed it." He saw now that there was a pin through the top left hand corner of the sheet: and turning the letter over he 'saw a printed eating' front eI' "Sounds plausi the Commissioner, looking more puz- zled than ever.

Taunton's description of the case as fantastic was amply enough borne out by the nature of the letter which the Commissioner now proceeded to read. There was no address beyond the.. word "Brightmouth." No day of the lnonth was stated, but the month itself was given as August. "Dear Madar.—I have heard from your husband hero, to whom you must not speak a word on the subject of this letter, that you are a good Italian, also that you hold anti -Fascist views. But now is the tine to lay aside politics. I am no Italian myself, but 1 am a devoted lover of Italy and of Italian music, And especially I admire your Signor Parelli who is going in October to conduct his great Symphony for the first time in England at a Queen's Hall Promenade Concert. 1 should like to be sure that this was going to be a great success. It Means 1'nueb for Signor Parelli--for the music . of the future. But one cannot be sure. There are influences of which I know which are at work against him and I believe—I know—I have the means to counteract them. And I have chosen you to be the sat iour of your country—I can call it noth- ing` less. I cannot, alas, myself put my plans into execution, but I think from what I hear of you from your husband that you will he a more than worthy substitute. If you suc- cessfully carry out the pion which I have fashioned you will Toe able to look back upon the past and feel that you have saved your country and Signoi Parelli." General Berwick read thus far and then looked up in perplexity. (To Be Continued' Rural Ontario is Called Sound Rural Ontario, "with all its diffi- culties and the criticism levelled a- gainst it, is sound municipally and fenan.cially," H. L. Cummings, De- puty Ministy of Municipal Affairs, declared before the annual conven- tion of the Ontario Association of Rural Municipalities. "I have no fear of Rural Ontario becoming a problem," he added. Ac- tual debenture debt of the rural ar- eas, he declared, was $8,400,000 and was being paid off faster than new debt could accumulate. Mr. Cummings called, however, for better systems of auditing and accounting in the rural districts, Be- cause of inadequate methods, lie de-. lured, "it has been possible to get away with murder."

There might be less scoffing, or pretence at it, if all speeches were as fine as that de- livered recently to the Ottawa Can- adian Club by Dr. Hamilton Fyfe, Dealing with education, Dr. Fyfe didn't tell how many millions we were spending on it, or how many fine school buildings we have, or how many thousands of pupils. Instead, he told us something of what education should be. It should be, he said, this: that students should be taught "how to learn."

Some folks have big problems which they treat lightly, others are apt to mag- nifyr trifles, 'but we all have our prob- . This week I am going to try and answor a big problem. It has come to me from a young lady whom I think is very sensible indeed, She writes to me in part: "I have been keeping company with for over three years. We are .very fond of each other, and I am sure we are suited to each other and could be extremely happy together. A, month ago ,re became engaged. Ile has often spoken of marriage before, but I nlwayo hesitated. At last I've promised to marry him and now I think I have made a mistake. Frank- ly, I am afraid of marriage because, for the past five years, my mother has been in a mental hospital and I sometimes have the thought that her trouble may be hereditary. Of course he knows all about it and he says it does not matter, but that fact does not seem to ease my mind." My correspondent is to be admired for her wise forethought. She cer- tainly reveals a highly developed type of social consciousness. Due it may be she is worrying herself unduly. After all, not every inmate of a men- tal hospital is suffering from. hered- itary insanity, There are a great many cases in which the patient has become mentally unhinged simply as the in- evitable consequence of undue strain and worry. The past quarter of a century has been a very trying one, and many folks have simply been un- able to bear the strain. It is true that there are many in our mental instit- utions who might not have been there if the proper help had been secured in tinge. But that does not alter the fact that they are there, and that tae t young; people the further truth that educ- ation is a continuing process, that it is not something which ceases with! graduation from some university, but: must be persevered with and de- veloped throughout the whole of life, then as a people we would be better edueated. John Richard Green, the great his- torian, died when a comparatively young man. He had had a university education, and was a great scholar, but lee never lost his curiosity about Iife and its meaning, and over his grave they carved this epitaph: "He died learning." If more of us could deserve a similar epitaph, this, world would he infinitely better.

This young lady should find out for herself just exactly the nature of her mother's trouble. She should have no difficulty in doing this. A talk with the family physician would sure- ly bring her an interview with the superintendent doctor bf the institu- tion in which her mother is confined. These doetors could tell from the case history whether her mother's afflic- tion Is hereditary or not. If it' is not hereditary, then her mind will be at case, 1 think, were 1 in this young lady's position, I would pursue this line oil action right away. Why go on worry- ing and fretting before you are sure there is anything to worry about? The chances are there is nothing to worry about. Even if you should dis- cover that the trouble is hereditary, well, even then, that does not mean that you are going to go the same way. I think it is now generally ac- cepted that we only inherit tenden- cies, and there are many cases on record which prove that those inher- ited tendencies can be overcome. II you take care of yourself and look af- ter your health, if you keep a cheery. optimistic outlook and avoid worry and fear, I ate quite sure that every- thing will be all right, Besides, the young man to whom you are engaged knows all about it,. You are not hiding anything from him. so, if you discover that the trouble is hereditary and there are signs that you might become afflicted, you could agree to marry, and if both of you are very fond of children you might adopt a child. The one thing you should av- oid void is anxious worry and fear.. N 3TE: The writer of this column is a trained psychologist and an au- thor of several works.
