and by his side a huge army re
volver. The table is laid for two,
with champagne on Ice, still un
melted. The house is empty of
human beings. C evellng had led

month man.” Mrs. Creveling Is
resolute In her efforts to bring
the murderer to Justice. Alesan.
der, | artner in bu. ness to Creve
ling and unde Mrs. Creveling,
objects to her activity and desire
to unearth the mystery. The
dead man is reported to having
quarreled with Douglas Waver,
ly, who had left the house In a
rage. There had been a robbery
of some Jewclr, and lisa, Mrs.
Crevclinu’s rap'd, was arrested,
let out on bail, and disappeared.

that Is what you mean, but It did oc
cur to me that he was preoccupied
and laboring under some sort of ex
citement.''
“Was he on good terms with every
one?” McCarty persisted. “Did you
notice any coolness between him and
one of your other guests?’’
Mr. Cutter frowned.
“I dul not. He appeared to he on
excellent terms with lilmself and the
world. I may he all wrong, hut his
eccentricities have assuredly become
more marked of late, nnd Isn’t It quite
possible that he mny have had a vio
lent quarrel with some one over some
unintentional or Imaginary Injury,
brooded over It until the tension snap
ped nnd In a moment of 'temporary
aberration shot himself? I ran real
ise how far-felched such an explana
tion may appear to you, hut I can
think of no other. He had everything
to live for and not an enemy In the
world.”
"Hid he hsve any delusions, now?
Was he a crank on any one subject
that you can recall?"
“No. Me was a man with more
than the average self-assurance; his
egotism was marked, but If that were
a gauge of sanity I fancy thut many
of us would he In the hands of alien
ists!" Mr. Cutler smiled, then his
face grew grave, "lie was nrroganl
because he had been pampered and
spoiled from birth, and lie never
seemed able to realise that any one
had a right to cross his will, but we
got on wonderfully well together and
his ileath will be a distinct loss to
me, at least,"
. #
“Well, sir. I’ll not say the tip came
from you, but I’ll look Into this mat
ter of Mr. Creveling being maybe
off hll head. 1 don't mind telling
you that It's the first idea I've got
hold of that might bear out the medi
cal examiner's report. Young and
rich and popular and all as he was.
It stands to reason that he must have
been nutty to do a thing like that.
By the way, Mr. and Mrs. Ford were
here last night, weren’t they?"
"Yes. They dined with me and we
miked until an unconscionable hour.
Clever fellow, Kurd; one of the
shrewdest operators on the street.
Take a few of these cigars with you
If you liked that one,” Mr. Cutter
Invited Cordially, ns he held out n
handful. You won’t find any of the
same sort In the city for they sre
made especially for me Look In or
me again any IPne you care to; 1
shall be glad to learn how your in
vestigation Is coming along."
McCarty thanked hint, reclaimed his
host, for although the words had been
departed. It was nearly six o’clock
and the early spring dusk was set
ting about him as he made his way
to the nearest public telephone booth
and called up Dennis Rlordan.
“As soon as ever I can get Into my
regular clothes," the latter promis
ed. “What was tllat you said this
morning about a dress suit?"
"You’d not bo needing It tonight,"
McCarty chuckled. "r>on”t make It
more Ihan half an hour, for If It’s
not mistaken I am, we have a Job
like the old times before us, penny.
I'll be at the table In the corner wait
ing for you."
Ringing off, McCarty Inserted an
other nickel In the slot nnd, calling
headquarters, got an eager and im
patient Inspector on the wire.
“Is that you, Inspector Druet?" he
demanded cautiously.
“Where Ihe devil have have you
been, Mao? Here, i've been waiting
for your report—”
*’ ’Twfll keep, s.r, at least for a
whilo, for I've nothing definite, but
I think I'm on the heels of something.
You mind that party you took up
this morning on suspicion?"
"Rodansky?”
“No, sir. The valet. Has he laid
low nr yelled for a lawyer?"
’’He's standing pat. Says he'll asn
for a lawyer when he needs one nnd
seems confident we'll have to let him
go for lark of evidence. I had him
up on the carpet for three hours,
hut no amount of grilling will get out
of him where ho was during the
hours between eleven and six.”
"Well, I guess ho's right!” McCar
ty observed "If you’ll take a little
tip from me, Blr, you'll turn him
loose."
“Turn him—. What-t!" The wires
fairly sizzled.
“Let him go, sir, at eight sharp
tonight," McCarty urged. “Clive him
an Idea that you've gained new evi
dence that leaves him out of the
ease entirely nnd you don’t give n
damn where he spent the night flet
that through his head and then throw
him out, but not a minute beforo
eight. Ilavo you Martin there, or
Yost?"
"Martin. Rut. what have you got
under your hat, Mae?"
“My head, sir, and It’s a wonder
'tls still on tnv shoulders with all the
queer dope I’ve hern getting this
day!" responded McCarty with fer
vor. "However, when you let our
bird out have Marlin on the Job. I'll
pick the fellow up Just outside and
do you tell Martin, please sir, to trail
along after me, but do nothing uni II
1 give him the sign. I may he want
ing Yost later, hut If I do I'll phone
again.”
"You're nil wrong, this trim Mac.
but I’ll let you see It through." The
Inspector lnughed meaningly. "Our
bird Is too wlso to lead you to his
cover, hut when he’s trailed Ills brok
en wing before you long enough pull
hint In again nnd come down here
with him. I'ndersland? I've got
something to talk over with you."
“Vi s, Kir," Mri’af ty agreed non
eommlttnlly. "But tint it Ido see you,
Kir, for the love of th« saints, keep
tlm newspaper boy* of the same opin
ion ns the medical exnm’ner. Don’t
let them know but that the case Ik

It might be a nice littlo diversion for
them If you dropped a bint about
there being Insanity In the family
and our late friend having allowed
signs of goln: bugs himself. Don’t
put It too strong, sir; a whiff Is
enough lor them news hounds to get
on the scent and It is being laid care
ful for them and for us too. If I’m not
mistaken."
“I get you," There was a new note
In the Inspector’* tone. "Your party
will be under way at eight sharp."
An hour Infer, over a thick steak
and \rry black coffee, Mct'srty re
counted to the eager Dennis all that ]
had taken place since lie left hltn In
the firehouse that morning.
"And that’s the whole of It!" he
summed up. waving a greasy knife
comprehensively. "Every last one of j
them IdnlTlng and hedging and lying
like Ill'll except the O’ltotirkes and
not a soul of them knowing that ]

was In the old days, but If they’ve
each got their own private reasons—
outside ati aversion to notoriety—for
warding off the Investigation, they
must be a flue bunch of crooks!

her feet; If she don’t actually know

strong suspl. on, and so have the

" 'Twas a fool move she made
quarreling with the old dame she'd
hired to boost her Into society,"
Dennis commented. "Knowing the
woman had aomethlng on her, she'd
ought to have kidded her along to
keep her.mouth shut.”
McCarty - shook his head
"Fool she may be, but ahe knew
that the Frost woman wouldn't talk
unless It was dragged out of her for
f< ar that notoriety would apoll her
chance with another auoker: one
hint of scandal and her graft would
be gone. At it was, when 1 put It

up to her she cleaned her own skirts
by blackening the other woman’s.
What was it that took Mrs. Kip out
of her house at all hours almost
against her will? Blackmail or
something like drink or dope that
she couldn’t keep away from? What
kind of Investments is her money
tied up In that she's flush one min
ute arid broke the next?"
“Like a gambler." Dennis nodded.
"Why did she break her dales and
run a chance of getting in Dutch
with the very people she’d been try
ing to know all these years?" pursued
McCarty. "Why did she keep that
old leech around her at all if she
knew the woman was on to her; for
a cloak? Of course, it all has noth
ing to do with ('reveling* death and
her little game, whatever it Is, doesn't
come under the statutes I’m wasting
time and brains on her, but tomor
row she'll come across with an alibi
for last night or. I’ll take her down
town."
"Tomorrow will he another day,”
Dennis remarked. "What if we had
a quiet talk with Jier now?"
“Recauso we’ve a little date of our
own downtown,” retorted McCarty.
"Now, there’s the Fords. She was
ready enough to talk until she let
that slip about expecting to see CrevS
llng at Cutter's house the night be
fore, and then she looked for a min
ute as though she could have cut her
tongue otit. Why? Whatever It was,
her husband was afraid of her talk
ing too.”
’’l should think when you heard
him usk her If she knew, and then
say that they were done for, you
would have called It a day and run
him In," Dennis observed.
"When the two of them had a per
fectly good alibi that Cutter himself
vouches for?” snorted McCarty. “Use
the brains that God gave you, Den
ny, and don’t be criticizing your bet
ters. I’m thinking Ford's trouble
was not ns to how Creveling died,
but thnt he was dead, and 'twas not
grief that was consuming him either!”
"Then what was It?” Dennis de
manded, nettled at the rebuke.
“That's one of about a million
questions I'm after asking myself,’’
admitted McCarty. “The Creveliugs'
doctor wasn't any help, nor yet Mrs.
Waverly.”
"She's on to her husband's galli
vanting. though, that's plain.” Den
nis tackled his second ploco of pie
with gusto. “Ho said he’d be at the
l'elterre, but she was taking no
chances of proving him a liar by
calling up even to tell him about
Creveling. She’s probably got over
the quarreling stage and had rather
let well enough alone. Who put up
that J 10.000 hail for the girl lisa?
Where Is she now? Who’s back of
l.er?
“The Jewels don’t matter, but 1
•ell you, Denny, I’d like a few words
with her.”
"Let her go,” advised Dennis, quite
as though the elusive lisa were With
in reach of their hands. ” ’Tls not
a thieving housemaid you’re after but
the man that shot Creveling.”
“Tho man that shot him may never
be* found.” McCarty remarked, and
then at Ills companion’s stare of In
credulity he added hastily: “Cutter is
ihe smoothest proposition ol them all.
Of course, h s alibi Is as good ns the
Fords’ since they were all together
In Ills house, hut why did he try to
steer me on, to the Idea of Insanity
as tho reason for Creveling's suppos
ed suicide?
“But you say lie's of a grand old
family with money amt position and
all; what's he go) to be afrnlil of In
an Investigation?” protested Dennis.
“If Creveling whs murdered and ho
thinks he knows who did it, why
should he chlcld him?"
"What Is he doing, or the O'Rourkes
either, going around with a crowd
like that'”’ McCarty crooked his
finger at the waiter. “Mrs. Creveling
was there with the family tree and
so was Mrs. Waverly. according to
Jimmie Ballard, but they both married

For Two Years. Itched and
Burned. Face Disfigured.
Cuticura Healed.
"My face and neck became rough
and full of pimples. After a couple
of weeks the pimples turned to ring
worms and my face was covered.
They itched and burned so that I
could hardly do my work, and my
face was badly disfigured.
"The trouble lasted about two
years. I saw Cuticura Soap and
Ointment advertised and sent for a
free sample which helped me. I pur
chased more and after using two
cakes of Soap, together with the Oint
ment, I was healed.” (Signed) Misa
