That I3 Something
If a man knows he is mediocre
he can console himself by sup-
porting noble and high - minded
causes.
It is a Hindoo epigram that
"money will buy a dog, but only
love will make him wag his tail.”
Kach day, praise the deserving
and somewhat less often scatter
rebukes among the undeserving.
Very little of education is mis-
taken. If it does nothing else it
confers polish.
Would It Urrburden Us?
Not enough pains are taken to
put the great issues of the day in
understandable form for the mil-
lions.
Failure after long perseverance
Is much grander than never to
have a striving good enough to
be called a failure.
We all think our “hearts are in
the right place,” no matter how
freakish our aifections.
Some men don’t give up — and
hence win — because it is too
much trouble to give up.
Man Wants But Little
When a philosophical soul looks
on the happiness of others he sees
that much of it is shallow—mere
delight in the possession of mate-
rial things.
If you have the talent to be sar-
castic, you’d better be afraid of
it.
Time is money; it is something
better: A period for enjoying
your friends.
Don’t start anything that you
can’t finish, and don’t finish
everything simply because you
started it.

Great Babblers
Those who have few things to
attend to are great babblers; for
the less men think, the more they
talk.— Montesquieu.
When Women

your strength you had for your
favorite activities, or foryour house-
work . . . and care less about your
meals . . . and suffer severe dis-
comfort at certain times . . . try

CHAPTER XII—Continued
—22—
"Was tho third caller you or Mornno?
And then I remembered two things.
Morano took the 2:12 to Philadelphia
to check on those finger-prints. He
wouhlnYve done that If he’d known
Kelly was dead. The house was dark
and si leu t when Morano got to Six-
teenth street. He thought Kelly’d gone
to bed, and so he went to Philadelphia.
I wag sure of that. And I was sure
that the man who killed Kelly wore
gloves.
"On a hot night.
"Not because he’d thought of finger-
prints. but because lie was accustomed
to wearing gloves, even in summer.
"It was red-hot the day I came here
to tell you about Nolan.
"And your gloves were lying there
with your hat.”
Peter smiled, faintly.
"I remember, too," he said. "You
picked one of them up. But, of course,
I might merely have been carrying
them."
Barry smiled, also.
“You might," be admitted. “But the
glove that fell on the floor was turned
inside out. People don’t carry gloves
that way.”
“Well,” Winslow observed, "Harwood
didn’t make any mistake when he said
you were a good newspaper man.
You’re right about everything. My
wife was Mrs. Selby. She thought
Selby was dead, of course, when she
married me. Two or three years ago,
I met him on the street. He was
d—d decent. ‘Believe It or not, I
was terribly In love with Julie,’ he
said. ‘I still am. Ilut God knows I’m
no husband for her, and you are.
You’ve nothing to fear from me,’ he
sniff.
“But I did fear. All my life, I’ve
had one conviction. Murder will out.
Everything comes to the surface sooner
or later. I urged Julie to get a divorce.
‘I can’t.’ she said, ’without more dread-
ful publicity. It would ruin your ca-
reer,’ she said. Always thinking of me,
Julie Is.”
He touched the tell tale magnet, al-
most lovingly.
"We were still talking about It," he
continued, "when Julie went all to
pieces again. Just as she had when
the tabloids printed the story you saw.
I took her to Europe. When we came
hack, Selby’d disappeared. I didn’t
even know his new name, and. of
course, I didn’t look for him. I per-
suaded myself the danger was over.
"Then came the Jefferson street grab.
"I was upset about what the news-
papers said of Judge Hambldge. I’d
no idea of what was back of that, of
course, and he didn’t tell me. I figured
that they’d got to hlin, somehow. And
then Morano telephoned, the night of
the murder, to say Kelly’d been to the
Cocoanut Bar. He’d had the marriage
certificate some time, and. through an
underworld connection, he knew Selby
was alive, hut he’d only Just found out
that Selby was Morano. Someone had
told him that afternoon—probably the
flame man who tipped off Lula’ tele-
phone message to Harwood. Kelly
had said to Morano. ’Now I’ve got you,
• nd Hambldge, and Winslow.’ ‘He has.
too,’ lulls added, ‘uiJess yon can find
n way out of 1L’ ”
Winslow’s hand closed tightly.
"Julie was upstairs, asleep,’’ he said.
’’She’d left me an hour before, radi-
antly happy. I went to see Kelly.
Heaven knows what I Intended to do.
(Vrtalnly not murder., I was about to
ring the bell, when I saw the key In
the door, and used It. Kelly was talk-
ing to Hambldge. I recognized the
Judge’s voice, and slipped Into the din-
ing room. Listening. I learned why he
had written that decision. And I heard
Kelly say, ‘If It ain’t filed by noon to-
day. I’ll have your sister-in-law arrest-
ed for bigamy.’
“Hambldge said, ’fou con do what
you like; 1 won’t tile It.’
"The cut-glasH decanter was on the
table In front of me. I picked It up,
almost mechanically. Kelly was In the
ball then, shouting ‘squealers* and ’beat
It.’ I suppose I had some vague Idea
of helping my brother In law. I don’t
know. Anyway, I opened the door be-
tween the dining room and the drawing
room. And, as I did so, Kelly came In
from the hall, closing that door behind
him. His left hand was still on the
knob when he saw me.
" ’More squealers!’ he shouted. ‘Wit-
nesses! So you heard, did you? Well,
by God, you’re not going to tell any-
body r
"He lifted his right hand, and there
wns a revolver In it.
"Another Instant, and he’d’ve fired.
“I hurled the decanter.
“It was Just Instinct. I didn’t take
aim. There wasn’t time. If I meant
to do anything. It was to hit his pistol
arm. I don’t really know where the
bottle did strike. The side of Kelly’s
head, probably, for It landed against a
metal door-hloge, rebounded, fell Into
a chair, and rolled off to the floor. A
moment afterward*, Kelly went down
In a heap.
“He wasn’t dead. A long way from
It, for the gun bad dropped out of his
hand, and ho reached for It. I picked
It up. Ten seconds later, Hambldge
was on the other side of that door, try-
ing to open It, onto calling Kelly. I
turned the lights out. Hambldge left.
I put the revolver Into my pocket, and
got the certificate out of Kelly’s.
There was a white push-button In the
frame. I pressed It—or thought I did.
"It never occurred to ine that Kelly
was anything more than stunned. I
went home and burned that marriage
certificate. There was no other record;
I’d made sure of that. A few hours
later, Hambldge phoned to say he’d
filed his decision. There was nothing
about Kelly In the morning paper. I’d
no Idea he was dead until long after
dinner that night at Southampton.”
Barry nodded.
"Of course, my first Impulse was to
give myself up,” Winslow said. “But
what good would that’ve done? They
couldn’t convict me. I’d killed In self-
defense, and could come mighty near
proving It. But, In doing so, I’d’ve
given away the secret I’d struggled to
keep all these years. I’d’ve smashed
Julie utterly, and ruined Hambldge,
and Pat. Nobody was harmed by my
keeping my mouth shut There wasn’t
a chance of their finding Bidder guilty,
or anyone else. If they’d done that,
I’d’ve confessed In a moment”
"I know,” Barry declared. "That’s
what you meant when you said, ’If we
have to get the guilty man to free
Rogers, we’ll do It. hut let’s give the
court a chance first.’ ”
“Yen,”
Peter rose, and went to the window.
"The difficult thing,” he continued,
“was not to confess. With that hoy In
Jail. But It was letting an Innocent
man suffer a few weeks, or an Innocent
woman all her life. If you’d seen
Julie’s face, when she collapsed, after
hearing of Selby's arrest—” He paused.
“Of course, neither she nor Hambldge
knows I killed Kelly.”
Barry said, “They’ll never know It
through me.
"Bon voyage,’’ he added, blithely, an
Instant later, his hat In his hand. "And
come hack soon. I'd like to have you
two at my wedding."

The simplicity but irresistible
charm of princess frocks ac-

popularity and appeal for those
who sew, and this one will make
an instant hit with the mothers
of growing daughters as well as
with the daughters themselves.
Slightly fitted at the waist to ac-
cent the mild flare of the skirt,
this pretty and petite princess
model goes together like a
charm, the result of a minimum
of effort and expense. Puff,
sleeves, a contrasting Peter Pan
collar, and a row of small bright
buttons down the front complete
the picture.
