BEGIN HER ETODAY.
Douglas Raynor is found ahot
through the heart in the early
evening on the floor of the sun
room of Flower Acres, hie Long
Island home. Standing ever the
dead man, pistol in hand, ie
Malcolm Finley, former sweet
heart of Raynor’a wife, Nancy.
Eve Turnr, Raynor's nurse,
stand* by the light awitch. In a
moment Nancy appears, white
faced and terrified. Orville
Kent, Nancy'a brother, comes in
from the south eide of the room.
And then Ezra Goddard, friends
of Finley; Miss Mattie, Ray
nor’s eieter, and others, enter
upon the scene. Detective Dob
bins heads the police investi
gation. An autopsy reveals
that Raynor also wai being sys
tematically poisoned with ar
senic. Lionel Raynor, ton of
Douglas Raynor by first mar
riage, comes to claim hit fath
er's estate. Now Nancy telle
Dobbins that she believes Nurse
Turner hated Douglas Raynor.
“Do you think the shot him 7”
Nancy aikt the detective.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY.
“N'n. Mr. Rnynor. I've not the
slightest reason to think that. But
1 do think—ls your etory of your
drug remedy Is n true one—l do
think tt possible that she wus ad
ministering the poison pellets."
"My story is true, Mr. Dobbins—
oh. please, believe It I knew my
husband was secretly taking drugs
—I found that soon It would be
come an Ineradicable habit. Home
body told me of the cure—lt was
warranted harmless so I tried It on
Mr. Rnynor. I reasoned that If It
didn't cure him. tt could do him no
harm. And. too I cannot tell you
—I don't want to tell you, how un
utterably cruel be was to mo be
cause of the drug."
"THE GIRLS NAME WAS E FFIE TALCOTT—AND IT MIGHT
HAVE KEEN .MISS TURNER."
"Hut I thought," Dobbins watch
oil her closely. “1 thought inorphlns
made people merry nml happy."
"Vos hut It was when he couldn't
get the drug that lie was so terrible.
1 had to hide It from him—and then
when he couldn't find It. he—ho be
came almost like a maniac—he tor
tured me until I had to give It to
him again.*
"You poor woman] 1 don t won
der you wanted to kill him."
If this was a trap, Nan took no
notice of It. She went on.
”1 gave him tho pellets quite reg
ularly for n time—he not knowing
It. of course. I eouhl see no marked
improvement In the matter of the
drug habit, but 1 was alarmed at
noticing symptoms that seemed to*
Indicate that something was radi
cally wrong, lie became slightly
anemic, was short of breath, and
subject to Intense thirst.' 1 spoke of
these things to Miss Turner, but she
said 1 Imagined them and thut lie
was all right.
"I became more alarmed —yet 1
didn't like to speak to Dr. Saxton
uliout It."
"Why?"
"1 think the principal reason was
1 feared he would attribute the con
ditions to the pellets I hud to n giv
ing him—and 1 knew those were
harmless—for I had had them anal
ysed by an expert chemist. So- l
really don't know how 1 came to
think of poison, hut 1 did, and I
bought a little book telling about
poisons and their antidotes As 1
read It. 1 became convinced that Mr.
Raynor was regularly taking ttr
i hl< e> Stem. 1 thought
first of suicide—then I bemm to
suspect Miss Turner of knowing
something about It,”
' And that explains, you think, the
whole matter of the arsenic poison

"Don't you think so?' 1
•Frankly, 1 do not. I at.ll think —
pardog mv brutal plainness, that
all this Is fabrication of your own.

Again, If either the drug, morphine
or the patent medicine >'• a say you
were administering had been found
at the autopsy, your story might
carry more weight, ltut no traces
of those substances appear In the
report of the operating surgeons.
If you suspected Miss Turner why
didn't you accuse her at once?"
‘As 1 told you." Nan spoke with
difficulty, "I didn't—l don't exactly
suspect her—l can only say—l don't
entirely trust her. X hoped. If I

■'Well, Mrs. Raynor. I can't think
this Is a time for such punctilious
consideration of Miss Raynor's feel
lugs, or pvon of your husband's
weakness. Try to remember that
you are under grave suspicion
yourself, of having killed your hus
band, by poison, or by a shot, or
both. Try to remember that your
explanations and excuses, so far,
have no real weight as evidence In
your favor, and for heaven's sake,
If you know anything definite or
truly preJudical to anyone else, tell
it—and help your own cause!”
Dobbins spoke cnibhatically.
“Now," he went on. "what I’m
getting at Is this. If you have
enough real doubt of Miss Turner,
say so—and I'll go straight and
hunt her down and face her with
the question.”
“I don't know ~” and Nan’s wor
ried fnee showed deepest doubt. "It
does seem so awful to accuse a
poor nurse of crime, with so little
to suggest It.”
"Maybe I can add a little,” and
as the short, sharp tones fell on
their ears, Miss Mattie glided Into
the room.
"I've been listening," she said,
seating herself. "I make no bones
of doing that. In any matter con
cerning my brother's death. I've
heard all you two have said—and 1
must confess. Nan. I think you’re
pretty fine. I don't believe, now,
you poisoned Douglas X believe
your story of the drugs and the
cure—you see 1 know you better
than Mr. Dobbins does. 1 am
shocked, of course, to learn that
Douglas hankered after morphine—
it's disgraceful—but to my mind.
It's a small matter compared with
the question of who killed him.
Now, I always disliked the Turner
woman, and moreover. I always
thought there was something be
tween her and Douglas. I mean
something that happened before
she came here."
"That's what I want get nt!"
cried Dobbins, eagerly.
"Come to me, then," said Miss
Mattie, calmly. "Mrs. Raynor Is
Young and trusting she's really
Unversed In the ways of women of
the world. I don't say she didn't
shoot my brother—she suffered,
lord knows! and in a moment of
desperation—but that's not the
point at present. If Nan didn't
give Douglas poison then Eva
Turner did. My brother had n la
mentable episode In his life about
twenty years ago."
"With Eva Turner?" asked Dob
bins. quickly.
"That 1 don't know. Rut the
girl s name was CfTle Taleott—and
It might have been Miss Turner,
under a different name."
Miss Mattie settled hersolf In
her chair, almost as If prepared to
enjoy the recital.
"It was when my brother was
perhaps forty years old. He was a
