"None," replied Dollimore as he turned to the door.

He returned to the Superinten- dent: "it may mean nothing or a great, deal," he said. “In the first place he has been to Paris several times, according to the endorse- ments on his passport."

“You've got Paris on the brain". Iucros snapped.

Never before in the history of Mossford had there been so many newspaper men in the town and the capacity 0t the lit- tle room was severely taxed. Peo pic were standing in groups out- side the Town Hall watching the arrivals and wondering who they were.

Miss Stenning, a slim figure in a black frock, des- cribed calmly, almost coldly, how she had discovered the body.

I don't see why you should be perplexed about what would happen to you if you married this man. Any child could give you the answer.

I say nothing about the wrong you contemplate committing against the mans wile in taking her husband from her, because} think that in- stead of hurting her you are doing her the greatest possible favor. Any woman who has a mean husband who abuses her is l_ucky to get rla of him and should thank the vamp who relieves her of him.

But don't delude yourself by thinking that a man who has mistreated one wife is going to be a model husband to another wire. Tnere is no magic in the marriage ceremony that changes a man's disposition or character. The man who was cruel to one wife will be cruel to another wife.
