"You're not going to do any such

longer than Quinn, who was more than
twice as far away?
With his attention concentrated on
this significant question, Quinn walked
slowly back along the sidewalk toward
the Blackburn home. Suddenly he
stopped and concealed himself behind
a tree. Zuttermeister, muffled in a
heavy overcoat and wearing a cap, had
emerged from a side door of the house
and was carefully scanning his en -
""I don't believe a word of it! You
can't frame me for anything."
"All right, Listen to this: Zutter-
meister said you're the mos who kill-
ed Judge Blackburn. Ho told us just
how you did it—"
"You're lying, I say! 1 didn't-_"
"He said," continued Quinn, "he got
you a job in Judge Blackburn's home,
washing windows. He let you get the
'lay' of the house. He hid you in a
eloset of Miss Blackburn's sitting
room. When you heard her enter the
bedroom, you slipped out, grabbed her
revolver from the desk, and ran up-
stairs and shot her uncle. You laid
the revolver on the floor, hurried out
upon the small portico which opens off
the judge's study, climbed upon the
roof and hid inside the house until
Znttermeister let you escape."
Quinn paused, watching the man
narrowly. His accusation, of course,
was largely based on surmise; but he
knew he had come not far from the
truth when the shriveled little pian,
grinding his teeth in rage, swore
vividly at Zuttermeister.
"You've got it straight," he said
at Last. "I shot Judge Blackburn,"
CHAPTER XVI,
"All's Well—"
At detective headquarters, the miss-
ing details were speedily cleared up.
Zuttermeister, having returned to the
Blackburn home, was arrested, and
when told that his confederate had
confessed he, too, made a complete
confession.
Both Zuttermeister and his accom-
plice were friends of the men whom
Judge Blackburn had sentenced to a
federal penitentiary, and for that they
had plotted to slay the judge. Secur-
ing employment in the latter's hone,
Zuttermeister had purloined a sheet
of Miss Blackburn's note -paper and
written the anonymous letter. Then,
further to direct suspicion her way,
he had hidden his accomplice In her
sitting -room so that he might commit
The Child's Welfare.
There is no reason why even the
most ignorant mother, if shewill read,
need not learn all about how, what and
when to feed her child, and all mat-
ters relating to exercise, sanitation,
fresh air, exercise --anything, and
everything that has to do with the
perfect physical health of the child.
Just now all the stress is being laid
on physically perfect babies. But the
baby has another nature which must
not be overlooked, if we are to do him
justice. The mental, moral and spir-
itual side of the child must be trained.
He must be disciplined. Not beaten
and scolded, coerced or deprived of
proper pleasures. Simply trained to
obey the necessary and right laws, and
taught that he is a part of a society.
where the individual must be willing
to give up many of his personal rights
for the good of the whole.
It is because of the appeal of a
mother for advice, that once more:I
want to lay stress on the fact that
this discipline must begin with the
baby's first cry. Before the child is
six weeks old he can learn, and often
does, that be can get what he wants
by crying for it. And Heaven help
the child and the household where the
child early Learns and practices this

Throw away the feather pillow.

Keep baby in thin shirt and napkin

Dip baby in a cool bath three or

Keep him out of doors, day and

Build him a fly and mosquito proof

The hotter the day, the less food
your child can digest.
If he cries, try a drink of cool boiled
