SS' N ()PSIS,
Special Investigator Dundee believes
that Juanita :,elfin and Dexter Sprague
were both murdered because they were
partners in a blackmail seheine, while
the police theory is that they were killed
to avenge ''Swallowtail Sammy" Savellf,
whom Nita is supposed to have double-
erossed.
Of Dundee's six possible suspects—
Judge Marshall, owner of the death
weapon; Polly ileal. and Clive Ham-
mond, who married suddenly after
Sprague's death; John Drake Janet Ray-
mond, in love with Sprague, and Flora
Miles—his case is strongest against
Flora. Re believes it possible she killed
Nita, thinking Nita has told her hus-
band, Tracey, of s, a seaudal involving
her, and that Tracey killed Sprague to
protect his wife from a (Marc' of mur-
der. Taking up the trail in New York,
he finds that the dress in which Nita
was cremated and which he thinks was
her wedding dress, was bought in Janu-
ary, 1915. He then goes to the Forsyte

amble, as she seated herself at her
dressing table and indicated a decrepit
chair for the detective. "I was won-

tantly, "nothing ever came out on any

"healthy as any other girl in the school though she was, she was even mole

maids—"
"Did you tell Nita these stories and
point out the pictures of the girls?"
Dundee had to risk asking. " ear after I went on the stage -1917.
Miss Earle froze instantly. Natur- y
ail she interested in the school, We were in the chorus together in

way"
"Theriedo you know, Miss Hart,
whether Nita got married during the
winter?" Dundee asked.
"Why, yes, she did!" Serena Hart
a:.sweaed. "I can't remember exactly
when, but it was before the show
closed, because the poor child was a
deserted bride days before the closing
notice was posted:"
"Deserted!" Dundee exclaimed.
"Did you meet her husband, Miss
Hart?"
CHAPTER ILII.
Bonnie Dundee's heart leaped, but
he forced himself to go softly. "I
suppose," he aid casually, "a fash-
ionable school like this has plenty of
carefully hushed -up scandals—"
"I'll say it has!" Miss Earle re-
torted inelegantly, and with -ghoulish
satisfaction. "Money can do any-
thing! It makes my blood simply
boil when I think of how those For-
syte girls in Hamilton—so smug and
snobbish in their hick town `society'
must be running poor Nita down, now
that she's dead and can't defend her-
self! .. If the truth was only known
about some of them—"
Dundee could almost have embraced
the homely, life -soured spinster—she
was making his task so easy for hien.
"I've met thele all, of course, since
Mrs. Selim was murdered," he said
deprecatingly, "and I must say they
seem to be remarkably fine women
and girls—"
"Oh, are they?" Miss Earle snort-
ed. "F1oia Hackett—llrs. Tracey
Niles she is new—didn't happen to
tell you the nice little fuss she kicked
u when she was here, did she?"
"She looks," Dundee agreed, "like
a girl who would have erode things
lively."
"I'll say so! Miss Pendleton nearly
had nervous prostration'" Miss Earle
plunged on, then fear blanched her
face for a moment. "You know you've
promised you'll lever tell Miss Pendle-
ton or Miss Macon that you talked
to me!"
"You can depend on it thee I will
• - , r. tect you," Dundee • assured her.
"When did Flora Hackett kick up her
little fuss?"
"Let's see . . Flora graduated in
June, 1920, so it meet have been in
1.919 ---yes, because , he had one more
' ;ear here. She took the lead in our
annual Easter play in 1919, and just
because Serena Hart complimented
' pier and told her she was almost as
gond as a professional—"
"Serena Hart!" Dundee wondering-
ly repeated tire name of one of Am-
erica's moat popular and beloved stage
stars.
"Yes, Serena Hart," Miss Earle re-
peated proudly. "She was a Forsyte
! girl, too, and she went into the chorus
!herself. Miss Pendleton nearly died
because she was afraid Forsyte's pre-
cious prestige would be lowered; but
1 when Serena became a star Fori yte
was proud to claim her. i , Anyway
Serena comes to the Easter l.lay every
year she can, and so she saw Flora
acting in the Easter play in 1919, and
told her she was awfully good. She
was, too, but not half the actress that
little Penny Crain was, when. she bad
the lead in the play four or five yeas;.

prompted.
"Well, the next clay after the play
the Easter vacation began, you knew,
and Flora forged a letter from her
father giving her permission to spend
the ten days' Easte • holiday with one
of the girls who, lived in Atlanta,"
Miss Earle continued, with great rel-
ish. "Well, sir, right in the middl:+
of the holidays, her father and mother
carne and asked for Flora! They
wired the girl in Atlanta, and Flora
wasn't there, and the Hacketts were
nearly crazy. But as luck would have
it, Mr. Hackett ran into a friend of
theirs on Broadway, and this friend
began to tease Mr. Hackett about his
daughter's being a chorus girl!"
' "A chorus girl!" Dundee echoed,
taking care not to show his disap-
pointment.
"Of course they nabbed her right
' out of the show, but that wasn't. the
worst of it!" Miss Earle event on.
"They tried to hush it up, of course,
but the `,turd went through the school
like, • wildfire that Tera; wasn't only
in the chorus, but that she `was living
with an actor she'd been writing ftn
letters to long before the 'wrier play

"Did Oh hear his name?" Dundee
asked.
"No," Miss Earle acknowledged,
"But I'll bet anything it as the truth!
Why, Flora was soman-era.ay she
flirted scandalously with every male
teacher in the school." '
"I suppose," 'Dundee prompted
crWftlly, "she wasn't any worse than
some of the other Hamilton girls."
magnetic than when seen from t to
footlights. Serena Hart was one of
the most attractive womee Dundee
had ever met—and one of the kindest,
he felt suddenly sure.
"When did I first meet Nita Leigh?"
she repeated his question. "The first
and once when she said it made her
mad the way chorus girls were run
down, I told her that in my opinion
society girls were worse than actress-
es, and—well, of course, I gave her
some examples, a lot of them; worse
than anything I've told you; about
Flora Hackett and Janet Rayr fond,"
• "By the way," Dundee asked, "how
did Nita happen to get the jok, here
of directing • the Easter plays?" "''
"That's what the reporters wanted
to know," Mise Earle smiled.
"Did Serena Hart get her the job?"
Dundee, asked.
"Yes.. . . Wait, I'll show you the
letter of recommendation she wrote
for Nita to Miss Pendleton," Miss
Earle offered.
She went to a walnut filing cabinet

she thrust into Dundee's hands. He

Dear Miss Pendleton: The
bearer, Juanita Leigh, is rather
badly in need of a jab, and I have
suggested that she apply to you
for a chance to direct the Easter
play. I have known Miss Leigh
personally for 10 years, and have
the highest regard, both for her
character and for .her ability.
Since you usually stage musical
comedies, I think Miss Leigh,
who has been a specialty dancer
as well as an actress in musical
comedy for about 12 years, would
be admirably suited for the vtork,
Knowing my love for Forsyte as
you do, I do not have to assure
you that I would suggest nothing
which would be detrimental t the
school's best interests.. Fondly
yours, Serena Hart,

"She was wrong there, but I know
it wasn't Nita'a fault," Miss Earle
commented upon the last sentence of
the letter.
"Is Miss Hart appearing in a play
now?" Dundee asked.
"No, but she 's rehearsing in one—
'Temptation'—which will open at the
Warburton Theatre next Monday
night," the secretary answered. "At
commencement Tuesday night, Serena
told Miss Pendleton how awfully
sorry she was about Nita, and gave
me tickets for the opening. You go
to see her... I know she's rehearsing
at the theatre this afternoon, because
she said she would be all week,"
"I will!" Dundee accepted the sug-
gestion gratefully, as if it had not
occurred to hint. "But first I want
you to come out to lunch with me. I'm
sure you know of some nice tearoom
or roadhouse in the neig'hborhood,"
During the luncheon, which Miss
Earle devoured avidly, without its
interfering with her flow of reminis-
cences concerning the girls she hated,
Dundee was able to learn nothing
more to the detriment of Forsytr's
Hamilton alumnae.

Cutting Marrow to Make
Short Leg Grow Faster
Drilling holes in children's legs
which are too short because of infan-
tile paralysis hastens their growth.
Through the holes the central core
of blood vessels and bone marrow is
cut in two—a new surgical procedure
described to the American. medical
Association by I)r. Albert B. Fergu-
son of the New York Orthopedic Hos-
pital, Says Dr, B. E. Free in bis
Week's Science (New York) :
"Long bones, such as those of the
human leg, have. two different blood
supplies, one through the bone mar-
row and the other through the living
membrane that covers the outside of
the bone. Dr. Ferguson had noticed
that in accidental fractures or other
cases in which the blood supply
through the marrow was interrupted,
the bone frequently lengthened faster
than it would have done otherwise.
"Working on this clue, sixteen child;
ren with one leg shorter than the
other have been treated by an opera-
tion in which two holes are drilled in-
to each of the leg bones about one-
third of the way from each end, a
knifelike tool is inserted through this
hole and the blood -vessels of the mar-
row are cut through and interrupted.
The holes in the ones do no harm, and
the blood supply through the mem-
brane outside the bone is not dis-
turbed.
"Dr. Ferguson reports that every
bone so treated has been growing
!faster than the corresponding bone of
the other leg by about an eighth of an.
inch a year, which indicates that the
operation may provide a general way
of giving such short -legged children
two legs of nearly the sait'Se length."
