"1 might just as well say That you don't care whether he did it or not, and I begin to think that I shoulden be far from the truth if I did, say that. Ev- erything proves that he . doped the draught, and you can ides him and fondle his hands! You don't even re- serve your judgment and say this man may be a vile murderer - you just flaunt your absurd hero worship in front of us •all. If he had a spark of .clecency in him he would give him- self up." "Oh, yes, I know that is exactly what you would do. I ,can just see you doing it. I suppdse you haven't given a thought to what this will mean to daddy's practice." ",„Why, what on -earth do you mean? Surely he is not implicated in any way? It can't make any difference to him." "Oh, can't it!" • It was horrible to hear them quar- relling, and I tried onee. or twice to interrupt them, but in their anger they ignored us entirely and might have been alone. At last I did man= agesto get in the remark that "every one should be considered innocent un- til their guilt has been proved." It was a fatuous remark - worthy •Margatet herself -and Kenneth sneered that seemed to have rather funny ideas on the subject of inno- cence. •It wee• 'Margareti. .however, who ultimately turned the discussion in a more pacific direction. She point- ed obit that Ethel knew the doctor about ten times as well as the rest of us, but even so she didn't see how any one could be expected to entirely ignore all the evidence against him. "However," she concluded, "Mr. All - port as good as said that he thought that he probably did it, but that there may be just an outside chance that he didn't. Well, for my part, I am quite willing to wait until he has in- vestigated that outside chance," and she turned to Ralph, asking him what he thought about it. Ralph paused perceptibly before re- plying. "There is nothing to be gain- ed by beating about the bush. Allam port would not have said what he did if. he had 'much real hope fror,n his outside clue. But, for your sake, Ethel, and because of your father's practice, I am willing to agree to any- thing he 'asks us to do. • Hotie.stly, though; so far as the practice is con- cerned, I can't see that it makes much difference.. This sort of thing can't be hushed up, you know." protested that ife the outside clue proved relevant, it aid make all 'the 'difference in the world. Then, none besides ourselves need know how heavily Dr. rHlans•oe's locum had been involved, and, endeavouring to carry out the Tundieh's request, I conclud- ed with, "For my part, whether this clue leads to anything or not, I shall take a lot of convincing before'I 'can believe that either he or any of the rest of you are poisoners," but even as I said the words, I was wondering, "If the doctor hasnit done it; then which of the others has?" "Right, then now we all know ex- actly where we are," Kenneth grum- bled. "Ethel and you have quite de- termined that he is a hero, I know that he's a blackguard, and the other two know that he is, one, but don't quite like to say so. .You had better let the little man know. I can only hope that it won't be for long, and that you won't insist on my pretend- ing to be friends." "No one but a fool would think you capable of pretending anything," I retorted, aid went in search of All - port. I had heard him busy with the tele. phone whilst we had been. making our decision, and I found him talking with the inspector in the drawing room. He was balancing himself on the curb round the fireplace, and I imagine he had been laying down the law to the local official, who looked annoyed and uncomfortable, and emitted a grunt of emphatic disapproval as I entered the room. Allport was grinning at him, his grotesque little face pucker- ing up in his amusement, and as he came towards me he patted the big man on the back, -saying, "Well, that, my big friend, is what I am going to do whether you like it or not." The drawing room at 'Dalehouse is an exact duplicate of the dining room F'0 far as its dimensions are concern- ed, and -with its long Georgian win- dows it must, I imagine, have been a difficult roOm to furnish. Mrs. Han- son had done her best with it, but the deep arm -chairs and comfortable settee always looked to me out of place and a little apologetic, like a party of chorus girls, who,. going to a night club, have landed in, a bish- op's palace by mistake. A grand 'piano stood at right angles to the in - hide wall, It was little used, and on the top were several family photo- graphs in frames. II had taki Allport that we were ready for him when I interrupted id's conversation with the inspector, and he came towards me smiling. 1 could not help thinking that he, was pleas- ed with the inspector's opposition. When he reached the piano, something caught his eye, however, and I saw his amused expression die away and 'one of astonishment take its place. Then, to my surprise; he picked' up one of the pihotagraphs, and after scrutinizing it closely, took it out of its frame and examined the back. In- spector Brown stood watching him frotnethe hearthrug, and I gazed' at hlra.frorn the doorway. We.exchang- ed an amused glance, his, I faneied, tinged with despair, but, quite uncon- cerned, Allport pot the photograph back in its frame, replaced it care- fully on .the piano, and bowed to us each in turn with a whimsical "That is another little puzzle for you," he Said. 11 shed- him of our decision. • I"Grood, and was it unenimous?" '5We have all decided to do what- ever you tell us to," was all I re- plied. As 90011 as we had rejoined t h e others he sent 'one of his men to •find The Tumlish, and then he made us promise individually that we would do ,exactly 'what he asked without' any reservation, and that we would tell him everything we knew that had any bearing on the matter. We took our places round the table, he at one end, and The Tundish at the other. I felt that the doctor's ordeal had begun,' and I wondered what be would say about the key and whether he would make any statement about his quarrel with Stella the night before her death. But we were to .be rupted 'again. The man wile had been stationed in the hall came in) and 'whispered a ,few words in All - poet's ..-ear. Allport nodded. "Yes, show her in at owe," he said, a n d turning to the doctor, "Miss Sum- merson has just 'returned. The plainselathes man must have told her something of what had hap- pened, because, though she looked anxious and worried, she expressed no •surprise when she came in and found us sitting round the table. She had already :nit on her white overall, and as she stood just inside the door with her hands clasped in front of her and her fingers working convuls- ively, I thought she made rather a lonely piteau.s pieture. 'Somehow or other, Miss Summerson both surprised' and intrigued .me. Neither the lie she had told in the dispensary on the morning of my ar- rival, nor her general pallid, hesaat- ing appearance seemed to be in keep- ing with the character. The Tundish had painted and the neat precise print I had been compelled to admire or, the deetor's bottle.' She ought, by ail the rules, to have been dark, de- cisiee, efficient, and fifty, and there she stood against the door - about twenty-three, I thought - nervously clas.ping and unclasping her h.artels, her colourless hair scraped hack in to a kind of run, her pale blue. eyes with their fair lashes turning first to the deceit. and then to Allport, ani her .white face and overall all help- ing to complete a picture that could only represent incompetence and fright. I argued to myself, that if normally she was efficient, then now she was afraid, and .that if on the other hand she was not frightened now, then she could never be careful or precise, but to that eoncluslon the writing on the labels gave the lie, so I guessed that she was badly scar- ed. We were soon to learn one reason for her embarrassment, however, for before Allport had time to ask her any question she said in a voice that trembled with emotion, "Doctor, I've lost the key to -the poison cupboard, what can I do? What shall I do?" 'Please tell us all about it, and if you can, when and where you lost it," Allport questioned, in his iciest tones. "I didn't miss it until I got to-'-." she stammered and then to our gen- eral discomfiture she reddened to the roots of her pale hair, put her hands to her face, and burst' into tears. Ethel got up and went to her side, whilst the rest of us waited unhap- pily for the flood of tears to abate. The detective looked angrily over his shoulder at the clock, "I never went at all," she sobbed at length, turning towards The Tun - dish. "I told you an untruth about going to the time off end thought that you would be more likely to let me go if I gave some definite reason. I am so very sorry." She dried her eyes, and halving made her little confes- sion seemed to regain some of her. composure. "But what has all that got to do with your losing the key?" Allport snapped. "Please do answer my ques- tion." She explained that she carried the keys in a special pocket that she wore underneath her skirt.' They were, ap- parently secured to a chain attached to some part of her underwear -five or six on one ring, and the key of the cupboard, being specially important, on a ring qf its own, connected to the rest by a piece of leather lace. When she had opened -the .eu.pboard on Tuess day morning she had noticed that the leather was becoming frayed, and had made up her mind to haves it re- newed. The key was there 'when she locked up the cupboard at three o'clock the same afternoon, and she had put it back in her pocket as us- ual and had then gone home. She didn't notice that the line was broken and the ring with the key gone, until she undressed on going to bed. "What did you do then?" "Nothing, what could I do? It was eleven'eaclock." "But surely you ought to have come and told the doctor first thing in the morning -it was rather an important key to lose, wasn't it?" "Yes, but I thought that 'most like- ly it must :have dropped out on to the dispensary floor.. I don't use the poeket for anything but the keys." "Where were you this morning? In Merchester?" "Yes, first thing.". "And yet you didn't come to make sure that the key was safe?" "No," and atter some hesitation, "I couldn't." "Now, why couldn't you?" "Well, for one thing I had told Dr. Wallace that I was going to Milling - ham for the night when I wasn't, but it wasn't altogether that." "What was it then?" ra-cl don't want to tell you." •"But, my dear young lady, you must tell me. This is not a game Of clurrups, it's a serious matter, Come stow, what is it that you don't want to tell me?" "ca -got engaged this meriting." f 'Oho! Yee, bet surely you ceuld 'hare spayed jest halt an hour to. ask about the key?';" 1930 you see 1 didn't know that I was 'going to get engaged. My fiance came to stay with us yesterday af- ternoon. He Was going away by car first thie Morning, and we had arranged 'beforehand that I was to go as far as Boston with him, and then came back by train. We started at half -past six. • I was upset about the key but I wasn't goring to give it all up„ It-ryou see, it meant too much to me." "And quite right too," came em- phatically from The Tundish, and, "Yes, I should think so indeed," from Ethel. "Then it amounts to this,"' contin- ued Allport, who seemed quite callous to the girl's obvious and natural em- barrassreent, "you last had the key at three o'clock yesterday, and you missed it at eleven o'clock when you went to bed. I suppose you made a thorough search /of all , your .other .pockets and your bedroom and so forth?" • eyes?, "We11-, then, will you ,please go in- to the dispensary and write down very carefully and in full detail exactly what yon did and where you went, between three and eleven o'clock yes- terday. , That"s all I want for the present." Mise Summerson had barely reach- ed the door, however, when he called her loads again and askedastked herto s,how bim the other keys. She fumbled a- bout underneath her overall and pro- duced •a small bunch of 'keys on a ring at the end of a chain. "Tell me exactly how the other key Was fastened to these." "It was on a little ring by itself fastened to this ring -by a short piece of leather 'lace." "But what a most extraordinary ar- rangement! Why didn't you keep it on that ring along with the rest? It Would have been safer, ivouldn't it?" "Yes,.4 suppose so, but these are my own keys, and I wanted to keep the "Other separate." "Why?" Miss Summerson made no reply, but stood miserably in front of him, fiddling with the bunch of keys. "You are sure tfiat all this about the leather lace is hot imagination?" "No," almOst inaudibly, then, "I mean to say yes, there was a lace just like I've said." "Hare you ever seen this queer ar- rangement, doctor?" The Tundish, I thought, hesitated for the merest fraction of a second, then he said pleasantly, "No, I don't think I have. I knew Miss Summer- son had the key secured to a chain, somewhat in the way she has describ- ed, but I never had ahy reason to handle her keys or ask her exactly how they were attached." Allport sat drumming with his fin- gers on the table for a time, then he shrugged: his shoulders, and told her curly that she could go, adding, "Please be careful to be exaot in the report Dye asked you to write out." aMiss Summers= hurried from the room. CHAPTER VI The Inquiry in the Dining -Room "No one has found the key, I sup- pose?" was Allport's fust question as soon as Miss Summerson had shut 'the door. "The maid would have re- ported if it she had found it when she swept out the dispensary this rnerning, I suppose. Miss .Hanson?" "Yes, but if you like I will go and ask to make sure," Ethel replied. ."No, dcn't bother to do that." Then after a pause he asked, "And which of you were in the dispensary last night after Miss Summerson lacked the cupboard at three o'clock? Were you ?" He asked each of us the question individually in turn, and it transpired that Ethel and They` Tn- dish alone had passed from the hall into the dispensary itself, though I had been in the consulting room at •the time of the accident to the boy. I ,bergan to think that the inquiry would he a lengthy one if each ques- tion were to be repeated so monot- onously, but he seemed to take an en- ormous interest in our replies, and to wait with a kind of ghoulish ex- citement after each, "and were you?" as though he were hoping to catch us in the admission of an indiscretion. 'shave often thought of that hour in the stifling dining -room at Dalehouse as the most tense and exciting of my experience's, The little man, seated at the end of the table, was angrily de- termined to search out the truth. In deadly earnest he looked at each speaker as one by one we answered his numerous questions, but he found time to glance swiftly round the table now and again to see what impres- sion this question or that had made on the rest of us -then back again, • HOTEL_ WAVEfklEY COMFORTABLE CONVENIENT MODERN WRITE FOR FOLDER.

To Ethel, I feel sure, and to me as well, his calm andhis dignity were splendid. ' To Kenneth, 1 am equally sure, they were nothing bat an additional proof of guilt. ,I could. 'gauge his every thought -no• one but' ,a villain oduldekeep thus collectedin the face of such suspicion -innocence, surely, would have shown more cons. cern? And Ethel, how could She seemed to hang on the doctor's every word. From him to Allport, as answer followed questions were brutal and direct, proud and glad for the dignified reply. He a murderer, a poisoner, and she the girl whom he lovecl-I believe his soul was sick with jealousy,. And Margaret and Ralph, I could see, though him guilty too -but they were more aloof -they did not con- demn and they had some sort of feel- ing of pity.' There we sat through, a long, long hour, the blinds drawn against the stretaning sun, the pleasant garden noises aiming in through the open windows. The clock ticked the time slowly and leisurely away, and once there was the sound of tramping feet on the stairs, as they carried Stella's body down to take it to the 'mortuary. The room was at fever, heat and our pulses raced" as Allport tortured us each in turn. "And your'key, 'Dr. Valliee, where do you keep it?" ' in me waistcoat pocket." • "Not_a.vemy safe, pla.ce...aisrely?" "I have always found it so." "You are sure it has not been out of your possession?" 04Yes, I could swear to that." "Wlhat do you doswith it at night?" "I •don't do anything with it. I leave it in the pocket." "And you really 'think it safe to carry a key of such importance loose •in your waistcoat pocket?" "Yes, I think it is as safe there as it would 'be anywhere else." "Humph, and now I want you to tell me about these," taking out his pocket-boolc and unfolding the notice The Tundish had printed and the two duplicates he and I had printed later on at breakfast. :Ile turned to the doctor for infor- mation and was told in detail albout the practical joke, about ourconver- sation in the garden, and about Ken- neth's inquiry at the,breakfast table. The Tundish spoke simply and to the point, omitting nothing, not even our arrangement to lie like troopers in our efforts to mystify the rest. "Humph, it all sounds rather extra- ordinary, •you know, doctor, not what I should have expected of you some- how. I take it there was no ulterior motive?" was a practical joke and nothing more." "You don't think it necessary to tell the truth then, I gather, on ev- ery occasion?" 'No, I don't," The Tundish answer- ed pleasantly. "Come now, Mr, All - port, you know that that is not quite a fair implication. I submit that any one might have arrange& the joki, and then have agreed to bluff it out as Mr. .1eIrcock and I did. You might just as reasonably call a man a liar and r. sheet beat -Ilse he was fond -of a game of poker." But Allport took no notice of his protest and turned to Kenneth. "Yeu, I understand, conducted this inquiry. The doctor has confessed that h.: was tespensible far the notice and for the disturbed beds. How was it that you felled to find him out? What did you -firol out?" "We came to no definite conclu- sion at all, but I wasn't then awarc that the doctor and Mr. .Jeffcock only te:1 the truth when it happens to suit them," Kenneth answered with en uely sneer. "We well divided, hut me all felt sure that it was one of the two. I think it is rather signifi- cant, however, that Dr. Wallace took gond care to point out in great de- tail that any one of us had the op- portunity to be alone upstairs at seme time or other during the even- ing without being missed. He went out of his way to prove it, and now I know why," he added, turning to the doctor with a scowl. Ethel half sobbed, ' "Oh, how ab- ominable of you," hut Allport would brook no interruption, and rapped the table With his knuckles directly she opened her mouth. "You think he stressed the point?" he asked, turn- ing once more to Kenneth. "Yes, I do." "And what have you got to say about it, Mr. Jeffcock?" I replied that I considered that The Tundish had made an entirely accur- ate statement about the whole affair, and that while I agreed with Kenneth that it was he who had pointed out that we all had the chance of doing it, it was in my opinion the natural outcome of our plot to confuse the rest, and that I could not agree that any particular emphasis had been giv- en to the point. I was surprised to see that All - port paid really serious attention to Kenneth's horrible suggestion. He sat frowning, drawing little squares and designs in a noteboqk he had placed on the table before him when the in- quiry began, and in which from time to time he had jotted something down, whilst we sat round the table watching and anxiously waiting for what he would say. "Yes; I think it is rather impor- tant," he said at length, looking up from his book and down the table to where The Tundish sat° facing him, his chair tilted ;back and his knees against the 'table' edge, "Would you mind repeating die arguments you used?" I've already „admitted that it was I who stuck. up the notice and played the silly rpractical jokes." "Yes, you have, doctor, bit that is not the point. The implication is that 1101' 4v4.. 18:et44,19:11-1.7ilelet'NTe;b7C).*314Hrs''V;:4.:..Ieff084.agstist.- cies to cone Vs ,ftret tluutgl*t11:0!'fleatv*A„ going to neneSetoshe,.

Even little Allport was impressed. "Yes, that certainly sounds realistic, and innocent enough," he laughed, het he went 'ever it all again, neverthe- less, pausing to peke notes in.: his book, and asking each of us in turn -to corroborate the statements t h e doctor had made. It was ultimately established that he had given Annie the medicine to take .upstairs im- mediately before he joined the other five -Stella, Margaret, Ethel, ,and'the two boys -in the dining room for supper. ' I had been alone upstairs. whilst I changed, and could have add- ed the poison either then, or later, • when as a matter of fact I was wan- dering about in the garden just prior to the accident.

When Annie appeared to answer it, he sur- prised us all by asking her whether the little heap of washing he had no- ticed on the dresser, when he had searched the basement, was ..the clothe.s that had been ironed the night before, and whether they. had yet been put away.

A word about subjects for enlarge- ments -particularly if they're to be used as gifts. Choose pictures that will mean semething to the recipi- ents. A shot of Fido trying to climb a tree after Cleo, the cat, will be vastly appreciated by big brother or sister away at College, but It won't mean very much to Aunt Cynthia who doesn't care for either dogs or cats. Some of the best enlargements we'veseen have been landscapes -or seascapes. Mountains usually make good pictures. A friend of ours makes a practice of getting informal shots of his friends which are enlarged and de- livered to the various cronies as gifts. All of which simplified his gift Problem. With the coming of summer you will be getting many pictures that will make beautiful enlargements such as a picture of grandmother in the lower garden, or sister standing In front of a tree filled with beauti- ful spring blossoms. Opportunities for hethitifie pies tures are countless at this three Of year, SO go forth With YOUr &enure and get them. • • JOtINyAl/ ottilpi* EVERYTHING considered, snap - shooters are a lucky lot. As we have seen, they have the edge on or- dinary mortals In the matter of real- ly personal, meaningful birthday or other types ef greeting cards. And they have the means of creating gifts oI exceptional charm and value. These particular "means" are the snapshot negatives from which beau- tiful enlargements can be made. If you haven't yet experimented with enlargements, now's the time.
