to go back to the scene of the quar

on the landing and you saw and

“Not then. No, sir."
“Not then—I see. But later you
did?
“Later my father-in-law told me
that It was because he had seen the
item In the paper”
"The item, yes—we have that
here. But you saw the two men
fight?—yes. And now tell me, did
you hear your husband say any
thing In that fight? Begin at the
beginning—”
“They talked so low—and so
fast—” Ellen said, beginning to
tremble, "I couldn’t hear It all; But
I heard Mr. Josselyn call out:
‘That’s a deliberate falsehood 1* and
then my husband said that he coaid
not say that to him—”

“I don’t think he said that. I
couldn’t say—”
“Exactly,” Ryan said, You were
excited and frightened by this noise,
and naturally you only got a vague
Impression of it.” He glanced at a
paper before him. "Go on. Mrs.
Josselyn, you saw the blow struck?”
“Yes, sir. I saw Mr. Josselyn
reach for the paper-cutter, and I
screamed. I think.”
“Why did lie reach for it? What
had his son said?”
“He said ‘I’ll stop you—!’” Ellen
began, and was silent.
He was terribly excited and
angry.” Ryan said quietly, not look
ing at her, “and lie shouted, Til
stop you’.’ What else?”
Ellen glanced at George.
“Why, they were speaking both
together—and so fast—” she began.
“What did he say that made you
call out, ‘Oh, no, Gibbs!’ dr *Oh.
don’t. Gibbs’!” Ryan asked.'
“He said something about a lie,"
Ellen stammered, “he said he would
—he said his father was saying
things that weren't so and that he
would kill hint If he went on—”
“I see!” Ryan said quietly, glanc

“Well, go on. You said something
about the sentimental attachment
your husband had conceived for his
stepmother. Did that worrv vou
very much?"
“It made me unhappy, « little,"
cnien said simply. "But I never
thought anything was wrong. 1 told
ray father-in-law last night that
there was nothing wrong,” she add

all forget it. and that he must not
feel too badly about it."
“Tell us again w hat happened
after your husband rushed out?”
the district attorney said. She re
peated bet story, attempting to use
the same language; she had quieted
the old man, dined with him and
her son, taken Tommy up to bed,
come back to say good-night at
about eight o’clock, and talked for
an hour or more with Lizzie, and

USE SULPHUR 10
Broken Out Skm and Iitching
Eczema Helped Over Night.
For unsightly skin eruptions,
rash or blotches on face, neck,
arms or body, you do not have to
wait for relief from torture or
embarrassment, declares a noted
skin specialist. Apply a little
Mentho-Sulphur and improvement
shows next day.
Because of its germ destroying
properties, nothing has ever been
found to take the place of this
sulphur preparation. The mo
ment you apply it healing begins.
Only those who have had unsight
ly skin troubles can know the de
light this Mentho-Sulphur brings.
Even fiery, itching eczema is
dried right up.
Get a small jar of Rowles Men
tho-Sulphur from any good drug
gist and use it like cold cream.—
