Douglas Raynor is found shot

brother, comes in from the
eeuth aide of the room- And
then Ezra Goddard, friend of
Finlay; Mm Mattie Raynor's
sister, and othera, enter upon
the scene. Detective Dobbine
heads the police investigation.
An autopsy reveals that Ray

“NOW, AS TO THAT PRINT O F AN OVERDOSE, I BELIEVE

"No—no, Orry, of course I don't."

''Yes, I know the vnae—”

“Yes Orry but —but they

"They found them, Nnn. nnd
they've analyzed them, ami they

you’d better deny ull knowledge of
them."
"Deny nil—"
"Yes, Natl, pull yourself to

"You believe I was, Orry?"
"Of course not! But thill's neith

"Who?"
"Who? Why. the detective, the
police, the district attorney, the re

Nan. listen; you must deny It—ln

half daird.
"And do It Intelligently. Nan.
See'* It won’t do for you to face

"Yea, of course," and In obed

to put more vigor In her tone,
more force In her voice.
But when they reached the

her with the direct accusation of
having dropped the tahlcts In the

to prevent their being found by the
searchers, aha broke down utterly,

An Awful Accusation.
"It's this way, Orry." Finley said
to Kent, as the two held prlrats

Lionel Raynor, son of Douglas
Raynor, comes to claim his
father’s estate. Now Dolly Fay,
a neighbor girl, intimatea that
she knows more about tha af
fair than she is telling.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY.
"If you don't know anything of
more importance than that X throw
away a worthless parcel, you don’t
know mufeh, dear.”
Non smiled a little at the child,
thinking she was exaggerating her
knowledge of events.
They parted on the bridge, and
Nan climbed the gently rolling hlll
sldo toward the house.
Orry came to meet her.
"Nan, dear.” he said, gently,
“there's troublo afoot. That de
spicable spy of Doldjns has been
ferreting about and has found
some arsenic tablets— do you know
aythlng about them?"
before she was married. I had a
tnlk with her. nnd she looked like
a girl at the very end of her rope.
She seemed desperate—nnd yet
despondent— I couldn't get any
thing out of her. though, she Just
begged mo to let her alone- said
she knew what she was about."
"Y'our father? What did he say?”
"Dad seemed puzzled—more limn
anything else. He tried to ask her
some questions but she wouldn't
answer any of them."
"There was sotno reason," Finney
said, thoughtfully, "some threat
Kaynor held over her. But, never
mind that now It’s up to us to get
her out of all this trouble and start
life afresh for her. I'll tell, you,
Orry, that when the time 'comes,
I hope to tell her all I feel for her
but not now. I won't add the
weight of a straw to the burden
she has to bear. But, as you are her
brother, 1 must talk to you plainly
—What about these poison tab
lots?"
"I don't think. Finley, I can dis
cus* that—even with you."
Finley saw at once he believed
In Nan's guilt.
"But you must. Orry- If Nnn did
try to poison Kaynor, I'd rather
know It.”
"What do you think, yourself?"
"I don't know whnt to think. I
saw Nan—twice—put something In
Raynor's e U p. I thought at first it
was saccharine—then I fried to
think It was some harmless medi
cine-- but why should she do that,
when he had a trained nurse?"
"I know Nan was desperate—l
know Kaynor had brought her to
the last stage of desperation—and
I know she studied up the subject
of poisons. Do we need more
proof?"
"We must know all we can find
out. In order to prove the contrary,
lleres my predicament. Kent. I
know a first class detective, who
would come out here and solve the
whole business In short order—hut.
do we want him? Do we want him
to prove that Nan killed her hus
band—or even attempted to kill
him" Isn't It better to let Hobblns

"Manufactured evidence?"
"Yes; make up some clews—now,
as to that print of an overshoe—
I believe somebody faked tljat —to
turn Dobbins on a wrong.scent."
Kent looked at the other curious
ly:
"Who would do such a thing?” he
asked.
"Why Miss Raynor Is quite capa
ble of such a trick —or old Goddgrd,
or Miss Turner—or your yourself,
If you'd thought of it. It all draws
suspicion away fn*m Nan—"
“Maybe away from you. Maybe
Nan did It for your benefit, Fin
ley?”
"Maybe she did,” Raid .Finley,
thoughtfully. "It wasn't a bad
scheme; except that it was a little
ridiculous to a keen observer. It
was so—so ovbvloos."
"And you propose doing more of
such obvious hocus-pocus?"
"Don’t say that one. Orry, ns If I
were compounding u felony. Rut if
by any such trickery I could di
vert suspicion from Nan, I'd gladly
do It. However, if I were to en
gage the detective I have in mind
—Wise, his name is—he'd see
through all planted clews in a min

of the matter—and. If that Involved
Nan—"
"Then we don’ want Wise —that's
positive.” Kent declared. “Now what
about Lionel Raynor and bis will

"Looks bad to me. That’s the
thing I’d like to put Wise onto.
He’d soon settle the will business,
he’d struighten out all the question
of property and Inheritance,, and
he’d show lip who did the poisoning
nnd who did the shooting!"
"Well, old chap, there's no chance
that you did it. If you’re willing
to have the big sleuth on the job!"
"I didn't shoot ltaynor, but look
here, Kent, I’d swear that I did. If
Nan should be accused of that."
“Don't get that detective, Fin
ley," said Kent. "Let's manufacture
ctews —or whatever your plan is,

A lap on the door sounded, and
Kent admitted Goddard and De

"We've come for a definite talk
about these matters.” Dobbins said:
“it's time things came to a forcus.

GEORGIA COTTON OIL COMPANY

EDWARD A. EVE, Mgr. J. G. PERKINS, Buyer.
State, and these men made the
prediction that Georgia would
largely supercede North Carolina
as a tobacco growing State, the
conditions being actually better in
Georgia for this culture, the soils
being somewhat better, the season
longer and the product as a rule,
better. It was their opinion that
heretofore North Carolina raised
tobacco because she could not raise
cotton and Georgia did not raise
tobacco because she raised cotton,
and they were much pleased—in
fact, entirely satisfied, with the
character of the soils around Au
gusta for tobacco growing; their
statement was that there is none
better. One handicap they saw
here was the lack of a local mar
ket; they would have to ship the
tobacco to some of the South Caro
lina or Georgia towns to be sold.
There was no reason they thought
why Augusta could not become a
large tobacco market.
These men thought it would he
wise for Augusta to exploit this re
gion for tobacco growing, for North
Carolina, Virginia and Kentucky
growers have the Georgia fever. A
sprinkling of growers would soon
cause local farmers to begin plant
ing und would result soon In sup
plying enough tobacco to attract
buyers to a market In Augusta.
These men proceeded to Metter,
Ga., (about 90 miles below Au
gusta), where stated they
learned warehouses were to be
built by the businessmen this win
ter and a market conducted, begin
ning next summer.

Middleton said to a Herald repor

to adveritse this section at this
time for tobacco growing and or
ganize a boosters party of 100 au
tomobiles and tour the North Crao
lina tobacco growing areas with
the cars placarded with advertis
ing matter about this area for to
bacco growing, like “Come to
Georgia and Raise Tobacco"; "To

terest up there at thin 3 time in
Georgia It should prove a profitable
"boosting” trip.
“These men may come back here
and locate. If they do, they state
thev will bring others with them.
They also say that a large number
of white tobacco tenant farmers
could be attracted here to farm on
a share basis, if land owners would
go into North Carolina and hunt
for them.”

THOMSON, Ga.— The library of
the late Thomas E. Watson, said to
be the most valuable private li
brary In the state and which is
scheduled to be sold the first Tues
day in November, It Is thought
very probable will be bid for by
Mercer University .two of the pro
fessors of that Institution being In
Thomson this week for tlfe purpose
of inspecting the library.
Up to October Ist there were 3,-
014 bales of cotton ginned in Mc-
Duffie county which leaves in the
neighborhood of 1,500 yet to be put
on the market according to esti
mates for this county of 4,500 bales.
Great progress was made gathering
the crop during the recent drv wea
ther and while some of the fields
are apparently thick yet as a gen
eral thing the bulk of the crop
seems to have been gathered.
The Columbia Sentinel published I

Strength
—brings joy to yon and
your friends.
EVERY man, woman and child
wants to have strength and
correct weight. It means the joy
of living. To be minus strength
and underweight often proves low
fighting-power in the body. It
often means you are minus nerve
power, minus red cells in your
blood, minus health, minus vitality.
It is serious to be minus, but tha
moment you increase the number
of your red-blood-cells, you begin
to become plus. That’s why S.S.S.,
since 1526, has meant to thousands
of underweight men and women a
plus in their strength. Your body
fills to the point of power, your
flesh becomes firmer, the age lines
that come from thinness disappear.
You look younger, firmer, happier,
and you feel it, too, all over your
body.
More red-blood-cells! S.S.S. aids
Nature in building them by tha
million! There are no unproven
theories about S.S.S., the scientific
results of each of its purely vege
table medicinal ingredients are ad
mitted by authorities. Begin tak
ing S.S.S. today. It will give you
more energy, vitality and vigor and
a more up and going appearance.
tS. a. S. is sold at all good drug
stores in two sixes. Tha larger
eize is more economical.
