FRANCIS EVERTON
(Continued from lastt week)
,The conceited littlefellow looked
round brightly for approbation after
the manner of •some small boy who
knows he's said something rather
smart. Self-satisfied little beggar
Just when J Was (beginning to rather
like him tool The Tundish murmur,
ed something about a doctor's diag-
nosis not always being quite the pig-
headed business he'd described, and
?iillport, filling( up hispipe again,
continued,
"As I was explaining, it was in-
evitable that my first suspicions
•should turn to the doctor, -but there
were several points that led me to
think it might be a . mistake to make
an immediate arrest without further
investigation.• On the floor, near the
bedside table, in Miss Palfreeman's
room, I had picked up a tiny frag-
ment of splintered glass and a good-
sized diamond.
"The diamond had evidently fallen
out of the setting on a ring or a
brooch -it might have belonged to
any one -most likely to ,Miss Pal -
freeman herself, but when we ,came
to search the bedrooms we found no
piece of jewellery from which a stone
was missing. It struck me as being
rather strange, that its 1'o•ss had not
been advertised. Annie had heard
nothing of it and none of you had
questioned her about its loss. It was
possible, of course, that the owner
might not have noticed that it was
missing, but then 1 should have ex-
pected to find a damaged ring either
among Miss Palfreeman's belongings
or in one of the other, bedrooms. Not
very much to go on, perhaps, but I
felt it to' be unnatural that a dia-
mond of such considerable value
shot}tld 'be lost and nothing said:"
.It was my turn to interrupt, and
unlike ,hisprevious attitude, the lit-
tle mall seemed now almost to wel-
come the interruption. I could see
that he was in the throes of ian'exs
quisite`and .I must admit a" thor-
oughly deserved -enjoyment. He was
like a child, I thought, sucking its
favorite sweet, and•••making it last. I
tol'i , -him how I had caught Merger's
et earching the stairs for a six-
pence that Annie found for her later
on, and how my half -awakened sus-
picions had been allayed by the find.
Then the Tundish informed us that
he too had seen her searching, but
in his case on the floor of poor Stel-
la's room. He had been mounting
the stairs to the upper landing,. The;
door of the room was half closed, and
he had seen • movements within, or
had fancied that he had. But when
he had pushed the door open to see
what is was, he had found Margaret
kneeling devoutly in prayer at the
side of the bed.
•Once again I was amazed at the
placid doctor's powers of 'description.
He was uncanny. He described the
little incident 'in the fewest possible
simple words, but like the bold
strokes of a master they made the
picture live. Margaret, on hands end
knees, half frantic, searching the
floor for her incriminating diamond
-then a sudden creak on the stairs,
and the doctor gently pushing open
the door to find her kneeling in
prayerful attitude at the side of Stel-
la's bed -an attitude, surely, to make
angels weep and Sapphire jealous.
The little man 'smoked thought-
fully for a few minutes, rearranged
`the cushions at the back of his chair,
and continued.
"Yes, it wasp fortunate, very, that
finding of the diamond on the bed-
room floor. It might so easily have
been trodden into the carpet. Luck
was on the side of justice' then. And
again luck was with us when, quite
by accident, I found that the little
splinter of glass came from the' stop-
per be the bottle of Chinese poison.
Have you ever examined it carefully,
doctor?"
The Tundish shook his head.
"It's a really wonderful piece of
work. The glass ie, very thin and
fragile and is doubled back under-
neath the curving irregular 'top, curl-
ing inwards again close to the pro
,;ection that fits the neck of the bottle
itself. It was from this. point that
the tiny splines was missing. By
the merest-• chance, I happened to
held the 'bottle up to the light and
look up underneath the stopper when
we were in the dispensary together.
Later 1 found that my little fragment
fitted it exactly,
"I argued that had the doctor add-
ed the poison to the draught, the
addition would have been made when
it was prepared.
"Again, that bedroom key requir-
ed explanation..+ You might just cote
ceivably have returned upstairs and
have thrown the glass amongst the
iivy on the roof, and • having locked
the door, lied to Mr. Jeffcock about
it -it was possible that you might
have done that in order to throw
suspicion on to some one else -abut I
could think of no satisfactory ex-
planation that would account for
your leaving the key in your own
coat pocket. • An oversight, it might
have been, but even at that early
stage of our acquaintance, dropped
bottle stoppers and glaring oversights
did not seem to fit you, doctor,
•
added to "my satisfaction. And if 1
had known what Miss Palfreeman's
uncle has since told me, the inquiry
Would. hardly have been necessary at
all." •
-•• The Tundish, who had been sitting
quietly in his corner of the window
seat, , with his ' hands clasped round
one knee, became suddenly alert.
"Ailed it was hardly necessary for
Ma: Crawferd to discuss my affairs, I
Very much wish that he had not."
"Oh, come now, doctor, a detec-
tive's .mind is choke full of c'u'riosity,
and it Was only natural for any one
(seated. at that !inquiry lto• wonder
what,it was that .had caused Miss
Palfreman's father to icomhnit sui-
cide, and what part he imagined you
had played hi his disaster: All that
Mr.•.,Crawford"told me when 'I pressed
him for ififorsnation was , that now
that his niece, was dead there was na
longer any need for secrecy; that in
his opinion it' had been absurd, in
the circumstances, to keep it secret
at all, and that if matters went a-
gainst yell, he could and would give
certain information that would; throw
a very different. light on the affair."
The Tundisis hesitated. For once
he,.xlooked Alsturbed and at a loss.
"Yes, it is quite tri a that every one
who could have been damaged by the
story is dead, but even so, I do not
like giving explanations cif my own
conduct at their expense. However,
as (briefly as I can, and in the strict-
est confidence, I will give you the
outline of tate unhappy story. Miss
Palfreeman's Mother was a very'
'beautiful and charming woman, and
like all beautiful and charming wo-
men who are stationed at the world's
•oubpoets, she was _subject to more
than her share of ,temptation. She
was soon the centre of the English
speaking colony in Shanghai. She
got badly into • debt and stole and
sold some of her husband's ' official
papers in order to save herself from
catastrophe. But she might have
saved herself the trouble and have
taken her debts to her .:Maker, for
y a few days after the papers
Were missed she was taken seriously
ill of the complaint from which she
died. My,•,friend, her husband, loved
her.. The papers were lost beyond re-
covery. Circumstances were such -that
thbulg{h he suspected me of the theft
he could not •make any open. accusa-
tion, or hope to substantiate it if he
d(d."
The doctor paused for a few min-
utes, obviously pondering what fur-
ther details he should give us. The
light had nearly gone, and I could
just make out the strong outline of
his clear•cut face from where I sat
at the end of ,the window sill `,oppos-
ite to him. The wind was rising and
the ram was beating against the win-
dow now, the drops collecting in lit-
tle rivuletsand streams that wrig-
gled downthe panes. Then he add-
ed in his quiet, unemotional voice, "I
attended her in her last hours, and at
death's door she confessed what she
had done. For the sake of her peace
of mind, and for. the sake of my
friend, I promised that • her secret
should be kePt. I did not know until
yesterday that she had previously
made a similar confession to her bra-
ther in writing. Well, that, briefly,
is the story, and that is why I could
not be mere explicit about the quarrel
with Stella's father and her natural
dislike for me." -
Ethel, what did you think, I won-
der, of the man of your choice, as
you sat there on the settee by Jan-
et's side in the fast fading light. To
me, it came in a sudden flash of en-
lightenment, the reason for the im-
pressive power of this unemotional,
unassuming man,. Bedelock, funda-
mental, essential honesty was the 'one
foundation of his quiet strength. 'A
rock on which he stood deriding fear
and all the petty evils that beset the
half-and-halfer. T, felt a flush of
shame, that I could have allowed my
amateurish reasoning to besmirch
my belief in such a one. My sheets
of notes, and mica table of relative
guilt, which • I still carried in my
pocket, scoffed at me aloiid. But for
you, Ethel, what a glow of happiness
his words must have brought to youl
Of all of us you alone haae trusted
him through thick and thr'ou:gh thin.
You had overdrawn your account at
the bank of blind belief, and your
lover had met the debt and paid you
batik in fell. No wonder your eyes
were pght.
"Anyhow, I decided that in all the
ci"rcumstances I ought to give you
the (benefit of the doubt, but that was
about all I had to, go on when I se-
cured your profnise that you would
submit to a voluntary confinement
if I held my hand. It • never occur-
red to me that I might he putting
you all in danger. True, the key of
the poison cupboard was still miss-
ing, but I had no reason to antici-
pate any general attempt at slaugh-
ter.
"Before the joint conference -in the
dining room, at which I succeeded in
achieving suoh universal unpopular-
ity, I became mere than ever salis-
fied that my decision• had been the
right este, and the inquiry itself only

There was another, little pause
when The Tundish had finished' speak-
ing. We none of us ma any com-
ment and Allport again continued his
explanations.
"As you already ki}ow, I. found
some burnt papers ins Miss Hunter's
bedroom grate,• but you did not know
that there was one unburnt fragment
among the rest. Quite unmistakably.
it • was the corner of a photograph,
and. fortunately it was the corner
bearing .the photographer's name. A
little later in the drawing rooms --
and Inspector Brown were there,
JefFcock-and once again, by the
sheerest piece of good fortune, I
caught sight of exactly the same name
across the corner of a photograplr;of
Mr. Bennett that stood on the top of
the piano.
"It had (been taken' in Sheffield by
Parberry, and 'the letters r -b -e -r -r -y
had straggled across the corner of
the bit I had found in the bedroom
gtate, and allowing for the treat-
ment it had received. --the texture and
quality of the heavy . mounts were
both the same -d could not be cer-
tain that the ,photo Miss Hunter had
;burnt was a duplicate of the one on
the piano, but somehow I felt that it
mightbe, and I decided to find out
m, re about it if I could, and as far
as 1 might, the extent to which' the
two had been acquainted.
u
I did find out a certain amount
froni my direct questions to Miss
Hunter, but it was to ,.Mr. Bennett
that I was chiefly indebted, though I
put no question to him. You will re-
member that one of the questions I
asked you, Mies Hanson, was whe-
ther' the doctor had ever shown any
sign that he might perhaps be at-
tracted by 1VIi'ss Palfreemant"
A quiet "Yes" came from Ethel's
corner of the settee.
"'When I asked that question, Mr.
Bennett quite unnlistakably took a
suddenly increased interest in the
proceedings. 1 concluded that he • had
had a special interest in Miss Pal -
freeman himself, and I felt that there
might still be a motive if 'Miss Hun-
ter had committed' the crime and not
the doctor. Please don't imagine
that I actually arrived at any con-
clusions OAsuch vague' and shadowy
material: I merely felt that the
whole affair required further scrut-
iny."
"But, even now,- I don't think I
understand why she burnt the photo.
Why did she do it?" Ethel queried.
"She burnt the photo ''because she
didn't want it to be found among her
belongings. 'She -Would feel that it
would be too patent that her old
love affair with Mr. Bennett still sur-
lviveds so far as she *as concerned,
and that if it came to light that Mr.
Bennett had been obviously attract-
ed by Miss Falfreeman, it might sug-
gest a possible motive."
1"But she knew that .both. Dr. Wal-
lace and I knew exactly ho'w fond she
has .always been of Ralph," Ethel ob-
jected. "She couldn't count on our
not. telling you."
"No, that is quite true, b•lbhink
that it was a reasonable action for
her to take, all the same. For her to
bring a photo with her on a short
visit was a complete admission of her
feelings. It was definite. The mere
fact that .the finding of the unburnt
corner did help to convince , me that°
she was involved, proves that she
was slight in what she did, if only
she had taken more 'care."
Ethel nodded her agreement. '
"I was dissatisfied, too, even then,
about Miss 'Summerson, I don't know
whether it struck you in the same
way, but to me, there was something
unnatural about her behaviour when
she told us she had lost the key. I
was convinced that she was keeping
information back.
"Very much against the inspector's
wishes, then, I had made up my mind
before the inquiry that I would• not
immediately arrest the doctor, and
after the inquiry, -and in spite of
what came out about the practical
joke and the quarrel with Miss Pal -
freeman's father, I saw no real rea-
son to alter my decision. I quite
made up my mind to leave you undi-
vided, and to put an unknown agent
into the house who could not be sus-
pected of having ,any connection •with
the police."
I saw my darling bend her grace-
ful head lower over the cat.'
"What made you change your mind
then?" Ethel asked.
"He didn't change his mind," Janet
replied.
I had • almost forgotten that Ethel
and The Tundish Were both of them
unaware of Janet's connection with
Allport, and even after sheshad spok-
en they were a little time before they
grasped what her words implied.
It was The Tundish who tumbled
to it first.
"Well, then, Mrs. Kenley," he said
pleasantly, "we are more indebted ,to
you than ever. You relieved us . of
Torquemada here in the chair, you
saved us from Aunt Emmeline, you
probably• prevented us all from cut-
ting each' other's throats, and all the
time you were solving the mystery
that had entangled us .so completely
in its meshes."
"But I don't begin to understand.
You are Bob Kenley's wife, aren't
you? You must be because - of
mother's letter-.-" Ethel, was pro-
perly bewildered, and took some con-
vincing that Janet could be anything
sitter than she had pretended, but
ultimately all was explained, and I
was relieved to see .:.that Janet had
not ie any way lost prestige by what
bad come to light.
"With Mrs, Kenley safely installed
in the house, I went over to Sheffield
to make what inquiries I could. I
was soon satisfied that there had been
something in the nature of a love
affair between Miss Hunter and Mr.
Bennett. I also learnt that she had
been asked to resign from the school
-in which she taught. That was on
the Thursday morning. In the even-
ing When I got back here, I 'was
met with the disturbing information
that the Chinese flagon had been
faand to ,contain nothing but water,
and that the poison itself was still in
the murderer's private possession.
You will see at once thatthat al-
most surely cut out the doctor, unless
he was being very, very ,clear and
had removed it just to make" me come
to the conclusion I did.
"I had practically made up,es my
mind to break up the party and rely
on obtaining further evidence in some
other way, but Janet overpersuaded
me, and we took Mr. Jeffcock partly
into our confidence so that she should
have some one always at hand in
case of need."
When' I remembered how I had
caught them behind the garage, it
amused me, his reference to taking
me into their confidence. I sinned
to myself, and I thought that Janet
was equally amused, but, I made no
comment.
"This is what I imagine actually
happened. Mr. Bennett's obvious at-
tentions to 'Miss Pelfreemann aroused
Miss Hunter's jealousy. Who knows
what castles sho had built, on the
foundation that they were staying in
the same house and playing in the
wile' tournament together? What t
hopes she may not have had with. re-
gard -.to their reunion? Perhaps at
the liaychoIogical moment she heard
her eina ,:

said, doctor, she probably li *w a:
food deal about the Irltiso>;t, lies
mender "her . connection limb Niss
Summerson. I think that the .poison.
must have ?lien taken from 'thio env -
board and•added to the draught Some
time betweex�' sits and seven on the
Tuesday. • VPla1'at made her decide to
keep the 'sett, I can't explain, neither
have .I found out where she put it.
But it would be easy to hide. For
instance, she could haav(e put I1 in one
of her scent battles and have hidden
it in the garden.
"On the Wednesday morning after.
the murder was discovered she prob-
ably lost her nerve to some extent,
and thought she might add to her
safety by .throwing away the glass
and putting the key of the (bedroom
door in the doctor's pocket. As luck
would have it, the doctor unfortunate-
ly drew particular attention to the
fact -that he hadn't locked the door.
'"When Mr. Dane stated at/dhe in-
quiry' that the doctor had laid un-
natural stress on .the fact that you
all of you might have been, upstairs
unknown to the rest during the
Tuesday evening, that probably de-
cided her later actions, and explains
the second notice, and .the hiding of
the newspaper in Mr. Jeft'eock's bed-
room."
"That still puzzles me," I exclaim-
ed. , "Why ion earth didn't she hide
the 'paper in the doctor's room in-
stead of in mine?"'
"I think that she wanted to spread
the suspicion," Allport answered me
after a pause. "And it wasn't a bad
plan either. She had already put the
medicine .glass inside one - of your
socks before she threw it out of the
window among the ivy on the roof.'
But for accidents such as the unburnt
corner of photograph, the splinter of
glass, and the diamond, we might
have been sadly at sea; and it may
interest you to• know, Mr. Jeffcock,
that for a period you were the prime
favourite of our good friend Inspec-
tor Brown,"
"But why didn't you suspect me in
the same way that you suspected
Margaret, just at first, I •mean?"
Ethel asked him.
(Continued next week.)
Balancing theMenu
Balancing the menu is a favorite
sulbject with food lecturers and writ-
ers. In fact, the subject is so much
in the limeligih!t, that the homemak-
er who considers all that is said finds
it difficult to cut a straight path
through the forest of hints•, plans
and suggestions for serving balanced
meals.
While there is no" need' for an ela-
borate system, there is also no magic
scheme of food selection. The near-
est approach to magic lies in the
statement that "good •squiare meals
make the ibest rounded diet." This
simply means that' in three meals a
day, 'made up from a good variety
of foods, you will find satisfaction
and adequate nutribion with very lit-
tle special attention to balancing.
These few details of menu balancing
do require some thought in the be-
ginning but, with experience become
automatic 'or second nature.
Here are a few concrete sugges-
tions to help you round -out your
square 'meals:
1. For arequate nutrition - sup-
ply essential minerals and regulating
foods by serving each day:
1. At leaslt one pint of whole
milk per person (part may be
used on cereals or in cooking).
2. One egg per person (may be
used in cooking or as a meat
substitute).
3. One raw fruit or vegetable
or canned tomatoes.
4. One leafy Vegetable, fruit or
bran cereal for ."bulk."
I.I.. For satisfaction --
1. !Consider the ,nutritional
needs of your family as to age.
activity, growth, the climate and
season.
2. Cater to food habits, likes
and dislikes of the group where -
ever practical but encourage a
taste for a widely varied diet.
'l. Seiave plea.s'ing meals that are
"filling,."! with
(a) Sufficient energy iYi•ods=-
cereals and other starches, sweets
and fats.
(b) - A substantial meat dish
for dinner and a lighter meat or
s'uibstitfite for supper or lunch-
eon. '
(c) Foods with contrast in
flavor, texture and color.
(d) Desserts that fit the meal
and make a good last impres-
sion.
For inteirest and variety -
1. Never repeat a menu without
some. change.
2, -Plan carefully to' avoid left -
evens. When using Ilett -overs,
snake them over into something
different from the original dish.
Avoid over -cooking but be sure
the food is thoroughly heated.
Use extra care in seasoning and
nerving°to make left -overs appe-
tizing.,
3S Study the local market and
take advantage of fresh fruits
and vegetables.
4. Keep lists of fruits, vege-
tables, meats, salads, breads,
desserts that are suitable for
your menus. Go over these of-
ten for new food combinations.

used to furnish that important con-
stituent. The best way to employ
these materials as•a source of organ-
ic matter. is to first eornipost them
with manure for a .period of four to
six months before application •or to
use them in the air drieciecondition
as a litter to soak up the lig d man-
ure in and ai&out the stable. add-
ed advantage is these treatm nts is
that the nitrogen of the peat and
muck is, to a large degree, rendered
available for plant use.

School's Ahead. Snapshoot
When You Go.
In later years, when you are an alumnus, you will get your greatest enjoy-
ment as you look back over the pictures you snapped at school.
WITH the opening of schools a
new season arrives for snap -
shooting and what a paradise for the
boy •or girl who owns a camera.
Whether you go to a little country
school with one room or a great uni-
versity your opportunity for snap -
shooting Is unlimited, providing you
use your eyes and the proper amount
of good judgment. Just as a news-
paper reporter develops a "nose for
news" just so you should develop
an "eye for snapshots."
There are, of course, the obvious
shots of the school building or build-
ings, as the case may be, and you
will want them; but what about pic-
tures of new classmates, teachers,
old friends, baseball and football
practice, the basketball teani 1eav-
frig for a game out of town and many
other interesting story -telling pic-
tures?
It doesn't make any -difference
what kind of a camera you have you
ean take pictures under certain
conditions with a dollar box, camera
that, for record purposes, are abouA,
as good as those made with an ex-
pensive folding model.
Did, you ever think of taking ac-
tio, gictures with a bob. camera? It
can be done. Suppose you are sittingg,
in the grandstand watching= excit-
ing football or baseball game. You
anticipate an exciting play -full of
action. If the light is, good and you
are two hundred or more feet from
the scene of action you''will get your
picture. At that distance, of course,
your images will be small but an en-
largement of the point of interest in.
the snapshot will give you a picture
you will be proud to show to your
friends.
When taking action pictures with
a box camera don't snap the picture
while the subject is whizzing direct-
ly across your line of vision. A1wp,y
shoot at •an angle 'of approximatel'e"
45 degrees.
For those/who are not, familiar
with diaphragm openings and shut-
ter speeds let me explain that a box
camera opened to its largest "stop,"
or lens opening, is comparable to
approximately 1.11 on d folding cam-
era and the shutter works at ap-
proximately 1/25 of a second.
If you are fortunate enough to own
a camera with a fast lens and shirt -
ter, that is a different story. Sup-
pose, for instance, that your camera
has.an Y.6.3 or f:4.5 lens with shutter
speeds up to 1/300 of a second. You
are a fortunate person for you can
get much closer to the scene of ac-
tion. Open the diaphragm to its
,largest aperture, set your s'butter
speed at 1/100, 1/200 or 1/300, de-
pending on the speed of the action
and fire away.
In school you study and experi-
ment to gain knowledge of your sub-
ject. The same system applies to
snapshooting. Study your camera
and experiment and you will find it
will pay you profitable dividend•§ in.
interesting, story -telling pietureu
that you will enjoy looking atfor
years to conic.
