Pure Flour Makes Baking
Crisp and Tender
If your baking is not crisp, or if, to make
it tender you have to make it too “short”
—the fault is perhaps in your flour.
Try Valiers Dainty Flour! It is milled
from just the rich white centers of the
choicest, soft winter wheat. It needs no
phosphate or other artficial ingredients to
“tone it up.” It is always rich in its
natural purity.
Dainty costs a little extra —but the saving
in lard and butter more than makes up
the difference. You can always depend
on Dainty for crisp, delicious baking!

comes in from the south side
of the room. And then Ezra
Goddard, friend of Finlsyj Miss

others, enter upon the scene.
Detective Dobbine heads the

was being systematically poi

Raynor, son of Douglae Raynor
by first marriage, comes to
claim his father’s estate. Dolly

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY

Dolly by Intuition, and, as she
went, she pondered on the ways and
means.
As If In nnswer to her thoughts,
she saw Gannon come out of his
door and go striding off In the di
rection of the Kaynor house.
Whereupon Miss Dolly Fay
quickly whisked herself nbout and
pretended to be going the other
way.
Passing Gannon, she went on.
and. when he was safely out of
sight, she made straight for his
house.
Entering the always open door,
she went Into the one big living
room, which was nlso his work
room and museum, and this time,
ignoring the beetles and butterflies,
she looked eagerly about at the
desks and cupboards which she had
never before noticed.
A medium sized desk seemed to
hold the pap#-s of the old man. and
after a glance about her. Dolly
quickly began pulling out bundles
of letters and papers.
As she had anticipated, they
were for the most part relating to
the science of entomology In one
way or another l>tters. clippings,
memoranda—all seemed to have to
do with insects or birds.
Pntll a type-written paper rather
different from the others caught
her eye. Tt was a large sheet, hut
of flmsy texture. She unfolded it
and glanced over It quickly. She
enught sight of the words, “to mv
wife. Nancv Kent Raynor—” and
she knew she had achieved the ob
ject of her search.

T.ionel Raynor, his fare aflame
with anger staring at her. “You
little thief!" he cried, and then, ns
he strode around to enter at the
door. Dolly's qulek-thlnking mind
led her swiftly to conceal the paper
by slipping It Into the lining of her
coat. There was a rip In the bot
tom of the side pocket, and any
thing put there would, as she welt
knew, drop to tho hem of the coat
and stay Uiere In safety.
This was done, when—and It
was hut a moment—T.ionel entered
at the door from the hatlwav,

"Search me!” said Dolly, slangily,
at the same time putting her hands
in her two coat pockets, careful not
to expose the slitted lining of one
"On my honor, these are the only
pockets I possess, and they are both
empty.”
She stood before him, a slip of a
thing, her simple little one-piece
frock quite evidently possessing no
hiding place, her coat pockets
empty, and her piquant face turned
up to his own with a look of utter
innocence.
"Positively, I haven't it on me,”
she cried, as she threw off the
loose coat, and whirled around be
fore him. "I swear, Mr. Raynor,
that I have not any paper hidden
about my person."
Of course she hadn’t with her
coat over a chair-back near by.
Unsuspecting her prevarication,
Raynor gave her a perplexed look,
even held her coat as she slipped
her arms again Into Its sleeves.
"I resent all you have said to me,
Mr. Raynor,” she announced with
dignity. "I will leave you to look
for papers yourself. I’m going
home.”
CHAPTER XI
Nancy Explain*
The Italian Garden at Flower
Acres, though conventional in de
sign and detail, was so planned that
It was always a picturesque mass
of bloom and greenery. In one
corner was a specially attractive
arbor, and here sat Finley and Nan
Raynor.
“It's out of the question, dear," he
said, “that you and I should shun
each other's society for a foolish
feeling of convention. Your hus
band is dead, and when the time
comes, you are going to marry
me—"
“Oh, no, Malcolm —never—"
“Why, not, pray?" he smiled at
her as at a wayward child. "I’m
not going to hurry you, Nan I'm
not even going to trouble you with
my love-making—hut, unless you
can look me straight In the eves
and tell me you don't love me—then
I shall continue to hope, yes, and
expect—”
“Oh. hush. Malcolm—don’t talk
like that. I never can marry you
until this mystery is cleared up—
and then—less than ever!”
“What do you mean by then less
than ever?”
“I mean that when the truth is
known about—about Douglas’ death,
—lt will bo Impossible for me to
marry anybody—”
“Except me! Now-, Nan, dearest,
you must confide In me.”
"Never!" and Nan Raynor's face
was so full of horror and alarm
that Finley himself felt a shud
der of fear.
“What an opportunity!” ex
claimed an exultant voice, and Dob
bins stepped inside the arbor.
“Just the people I want to see.
And I will inform you that unless
you both answer truly the questions
I'm going to put to you, it will be a
very serious mistake."
"We are not obliged to Incrimi
nate ourselves." Finley said.
“No, but I shall judge by your
manner, by your I
may say I shall judge more by what
you say than by what you do.”
“Re careful, Nan." Finley said,
"of what you don't say!”
But though his tone was jocular
It was obviously a forced light
ness.
“First, Mrs. Raynor, as you may
or may not know, we retrieved that
parcel you thre winto the Falls.”
“Yes?" said Nan. In a low tone.
"And we found that It contained
a dope outfit—to put It plainly,
some bottles of morphine,"
“Yes?”
"And I want you to tell me. If you
please, why you threw It away with
such secrecy and care"
“Because." Nan spoke with an
effort, "because. If It had been dis- j

"Misjudged? Am I misjudging
you now, when I assume that the

”I—l suppose it—belonged to

and trouble, and she glanced
from one man to the other, as if
uncertain what course to pursue.
