Serve with chipped ice, r. r The ueenD s Flall By Adam Broome In the long, low-cleinged, dark - timbered morning room with its huge deep recessed fireplace on which a fragrant log was burning. The young man took an egg from the rack on the huge brick hearth and sat down rather disconsolately at the empty table. The others had breakfasted. He picked up the morning paper and 'ran casually through it. Nothing much, as usual. Then he caught sight of a head- line which attracted his rather un - {willing eye: ITHE PARELL1 CASE: ARREST CONFIDENTLY EXPECTED DUR- ING THE NEXT FEW DAYS. .. Mrs, Manton had met Mollie Crro vv - trier in the village a good many n ore times than anyone suspected. It had all be so openly donethat nobody. had had any reason to be suspicious, If Taunton's theory were true, Mrs; Manton :had used the little girl as 0. go-between: to coiled the Hawkes' letter at l3rightinouth. ' The penciled memo on the sweets bag probably referred to some letters she had to collect or already had. collected. e Mollie did not read the paper. The fact that Mrs. Manton had a. "Dr, Hawkes," who letters she used. to collect would convey nething to her, It must have been Mollie who bought the strings and posted them to Westcott. No doubt she had been given the prepared drawing -pin, told to put it, carefully wrapped in the tissie paper, as some sort of a little present, the nature of which she did not know, before the strings were packed up for the post. When the outcry over the curare murders became louder, the old lady's nerve was probably shaken. In each case, if the Inspector's story were true, the deranged woman- had omanhad acted upon some failing in the character of those whom she had chosen as her instruments: in Fran- cesca Pomagna, the excessive senti- mentality and patriotism, mingled with peasant superstition, of the waiter's wife: in the student Brank- some on his fanatical zeal in an ad- mirable cause: in poor little Mollie Crowther on her craving for sweets, which was intensified by her parents' ban. Only in the case of the Notting- ham jewellers had the channel em- ployed been an ordinary . commercial one. The whole thing, as Taunton ad- mitted, was at present theory. But search of the suspected person or her room might—probably would— reveal a lot more. "So you see, sir, there's nothing for us to do, I'm afraid, except to ques- tion the lady. Stephen Garton was aghast— amazed. He was actually, if the Inspector's story could be substantiated, under the very roof of the murderer of Sig- nor Parelli, of Westcott, the West African District Cpmmissioner, of poor little Mollie Crowther and the opera star Paola Bianchi. It all seemed too fantastic and • absurd— like some wild nightmare. Mrs. Manton never saw Inspector Taunton. Her heart attacks had been incessant throughout the night, and not so long after the Scotland Yard man had presented himself to Stephen Garton in the breakfast room below, after a seizure more severe than any which had preceded it, she had closed her eyes—and,her lips for ever. And the full story of the Queen's Ball murder—of the crurare and sflych- nine poisonings which followed ,,t— will never now be told. 1 past, to her thinking, frustrated her ambition. "There was John Octavius West cot!; the diary gave the clue there. The father was dead; but the son was still alive — the sins of the father would have to be visited on him— and unfortunately were. She must have traced him in the Colonial Office list. Parelli had known the father. "In his correspondence we found letters from Mrs. Manton some years back—they've only just reached us from Italy—showing that Parelli, too to whom she sent compositions —had turned them down. So he, too, was a marked man. We can't find any definite evidence in the Bianchi case. But you may remember her in- terview in the 'Evening Globe: She, too, often had to turn down composi- tions of musical amateurs. The fact that she met her death as the result of Mrs. Manton's scheming seems un- deniable. "Mrs. Manton was 'Dr. Hawkes.' Her latter musical studies were prob- ably a blind to cover up her practis- ing the disguise of her own handwrit- ing—using a fine music nib. Brank- some's name she must have seen in some paper reporting one of his rather fanatical speeches. He would have access in the laboratory'to some little-known poisons; and he, -as we know, procured curare — and with what results." It was a long story, and though in the legal sense there was no complete chain of evidence as yet to back it, it was strange how true it rang in the ears of the astonished young man. Taunton had had enquiries dis- creetly made during the past week in the village by plain clothes men. "Good morning. Didn't expect to see you here sir. As it is—I'm very glad." Stephen Garton had wondered why the rather frightened -looking country girl, one of the two servants at the cottage, had shown the early visitor .right into the breakfast room with - ',out the formality of taking him first into the drawing -room. Now he rea- lized the reason. • He recognized Inspector Taunton, of Scotland Yard. He'd met him be- fore at the Home Office when he'd 'called there once to see his friend 'there, and the Inspector had been (then on the eternal Parelli business. The manner of the Police, when they come on duty, as Taunton certainly bad, brooks no delay. "All right, Annie; you the door and go." "But, sir," said the girl, rather alarmed. "There's another gentle- man—Mr. Jones, sir." "It's all right," broke in Taunton. "Ask him to wait somewhere else." He turned to Garton. "I had to bring the local man with me — formality, you know," Garton remembered, with a start, that Jones was the name of the local Police Constable. "So you see, sir—I'in afraid there can be • very little doubt. Of course at this stage I've not applied for a 'warrant. What we usually do is to detain and question a person in the pt,sition in which the law now holds Mrs. Manton to be. There can't be much doubt, from what I've already told you, that the renewed interest in music, brought on by the wireless and the contact with the organist, started the old trouble again. "People who are unbalanced in one way often make up for it in another; ,it's a phenomenon well-known to (psychological science. Mrs. Manton ,lead plenty of time to think things out. Her failure to make her name as a composer, a musician, began to worry her—to prey on her mind. She thought of the people who had, in the can close WAKE UP YOUR LIVER BILE— And You'll Jump Out of Bed in tho Morning Rarin' to Go The liver should pour out two pounds of liquid bile into your bowels daily.

Recover.. Year at the Canadian National Exhib tion _ To Be Marked By Opening of New Ma warmth Band Shell. Music with Lighting Effects a New . Feature Features never before embodied in a bandshell are included in the mam- moth structure at the Canadian Na- tional Exhibition park in Toronto. The new shell is the result of three years research. Accoustics' engineers from several universities have been con- sulted and Fred Mayberry, chief elec- trician of the big annual Canadian exposition has utilized the best light- ing features from the Swift and Ford shells at the Century of Progress, Radio City music hall, San Diego ex- position and in addition visited Paris, Amsterdam, Brussels and Karlsruhe in search of most modern methods. These have been elaborated and spe- cial electrical equipment built to or- der. Band and orchestra conductors will have a miniature simplified ' switch- board immediately in front of the podium from which they will be able to manipulate the lighting effects to suit the moods of the music as they change from time to time during the playing of selections. The Canadian National Exhibition has engaged the Kneller Hall band from the Royal Military School of Music at Twickenham, England. to dedicate the new shell. This organize. tion is composed of bandmasters tak- ing aking courses at the school. All are masters of several instruments, Bev eral are organists and vocalists, some of them are composers of note. This ensemble will be under the baton of Major H. E. Adkins, Mus. B.; L.R.A. M. who will be remembered by the bandsmen of America as guest con- ductor at the American Bandmasters' Association convention in Cincinnati two years ago. • "I feel, if I stay in Shallow any longer ... that I too shall go mad. It's all too awful—too terrible—I— I—can't believe it. But if I stay here any longer I shall begin to believe it. And if I' believed it I'd know I was no longer sane myself. And mother won't believe it. She's already play- ing bridge again, and every time she comes back she has a different theory for the dreadful murders. Oh— Stephen—how can I bear it? How can I stay here? I can't—I can't!" ' She threw herself limply into the young . man's arms as they sat side by side on the sofa by the cosy drawing -room fire — looking through the French windows on to the hard, rime -covered lawn beyond. Tenderly Stephen Garton folded the distraught girl in his arms. He kissed away her tears, smiled—and even as he smiled a faint color came back into Lettice's pale cheeks, and she smiled too. "But there's no need for you to stay here; it's bad for you. My flat isn't very big; but it's big enough for two. You'lI take that London post at last. THE END. Scotland Sending Mission to Canada Goodwill Visit and Trade Exposi- tion Planned for Canadian National Exhibition Bring Vallee Back For Two -Week Visit Famed Radio Showman With Or- chestra and Show Engaged for Exhibtion Radio's famous showman, Rudy Vallee, outstanding Thursday night celebrity of listening America, is re- turning to Canada again this year, for the entire fourteen days of the exposition, He is bringing with him an augmented orchestra and a large stage presentation. His regular radio performances, during the period, will go out to the continent's fans from the Exhibition. • Here will be a gathering of the clans in real earnest this year. For the first time, Scotland is coming. In addition to the elaborate British Industries' sections and the famous Court of Empire where last year, re- plicas of the Royal jewels in the Tower of London were shown, Scot- land will be present with its own trade exposition in the British Trade pavilion. The undertaking is being sponsored by the Scottish National Development Council which is plan- ning to make it a meeting place for Scots and those of Scottish descent from all parts of America. There will necessarily be sprigs of heather, tartans and the bagpipes but "I believe that the benefits of re- peal are not complete because of high taxes on legitimate liquor. It still leaves room for the bootlegger." —John D. Rockefeller Jr. 163!71 Priced as Low as $5.9S1 Now you can Iron In eoel comfort in any part of the house ... even outdoors beneath a Shade tree.
