As you go on through life you will find two distinct clas of people. One will go out of its way to help you, to g the guiding directions that it learned by bitter experience. | Pay close attention to these people, especially the old. They know the shortcuts to take and the pitfalls to avoid. The others are plain nasty in varying degrees. At times they’ll seem to be in the majority.

Young people, striking out for themselves have a ‘tend- ency to drift away from the folks at home.

THE STORY “Now, what, is more, both Miss Reed and her parents made it clear that the soldier wag of an excitable In fact Mr. didn’t much appr&e of the He described a man who might very easily slip over the bor- der line between reason and unrea- son, No, Halfyard, you'll not find any theory to hold water but the theory of a mental breakdown. The letter he wrote to his brother quite confirms it. The very writing shows a lack of restraint of self-control.” “The writing was really his?” “I've compared it with another let- ter in Ben@igo Redmayne’s posses- on. It's a peculiar fi I should y there couldn’t be a shadow of doubt.” “What shall you do next?” Halfyard. “Get back to Plymouth again and make close inquiries among the onion boats, They go and come and I can trace the craft that left Ply- mouth during the days that immedi- ately followed the posting of Red- mayne’s letters These will probably be back again with another load in a week or two. One ought to be able to check them.” “A wild-goose chase, Brendon.” “Looks to me as though the whole inquiry had been pretty much so from the first. We’ve missed the key somewhere. How the man that left Paignton in knickerbockers, and a big check suit and a red waist- coat on the morning after the mur- der got away with it and never chal- longed a single eye on rail or road —well, it’s such a flat contradiction to rezson and experience that I can’t easily believe the face value.” “No—there’s a breakdown some- where—that’s what I'm telling you; but whether the fault is ours, or a trick has been played to put us fair- ly out of the running, no. doubt you'll find out soon or late, I don’t see there’s anything more we can do up here whether or no.” “There isn’t,” admitted Mark. “It’s all been routine work and a devil of lot of time wasted in my opinion. Between ourselves, I'm rather ashamed of myself, Halfyard. I've missed something—the thing that most mattered. There's a sign- post sticking up somewhere that I nover saw.” The inspector nodded. “It -happens so sometimes—cruel vexing—and then people laugh at us and ask how we earn our money. Now and again, as you say, there’s a danger signal to a case so clear ag the nose on a man’s face, and yet, owing to following some other clue, or sticking to a theory that we feel can and must be the only right one, we miss the real, vital point till we go and bark our shins, on it. And then, perhaps, it’s too late and we look silly.” Brendon admitted this experience. “There can only be two possible situations,” he said; “either this was a motiveless murder—and lack of motive means insanity; or else. there was a deep reason for it and Redmayne killed Pendean,. after! plotting far in advance to do so and get clear himself. In the first case he would have been found, unless he hhad committed: suicide in some such cunning fashion that we can’t dis- cover the body. In the second case, he’s a very cute bird indeed and the ride to Paignton and disposal of the corpse—that all looked so mad—was supercraft on his part. But, . if alive, mad or sane, I’m of opinion he Reed ked ' the truth of did what he said in his letter to his} brother he meant to do, and got off for a French or Spanish port. So that’s the next step for me—to try and hunt down the boat that took him.” * He- pursued. this policy, left! lowing day, took a room at a. sail- ors’'inn on the Barbican and with the help of the harbor authority fol- lowed the voyages of a dozen small vessels which had been berthing at Plymouth during the critical days. A month of arduous work Mark devoted to this stage of the inquiry, and his investigation produced noth- ing whatever. Not'a skipper of any vessel involved could furnish the Jeast information and no man re- sembling Robert Redmayne had been seen’ by the harbor police, or any independent person at. Plymouth, despite sharp watchfulness. A time came when the detective was recalled to London and heartily chaffed for his failure; but his own unusual disappointment — disarmed the amusement at his expense, The case had ‘presented such few appar- ent difficulties that Brendon’s com- plete unsuceess ‘astonished his chief. ‘He was content, however, to believe Mark’s own conviction: that Robert Redmayne’ had never’ left England but | destroyed. _himself—probably soon after the dispatch of his letter Much demanded attention’: and, Brendon was soon (devoting se) f\ to a‘diamond robbery in the Mid- lands. Months passed, the body of Michael Pendean had not been ro- covered, and the little world of Scot- land Yard pigeon-holed the mystery, while the larger world forgot all about it. v Meantime, with a sense of! secret relief, Mark Brendon prepared to face what had sprung out of these incidents, while permitting the events themselves to pass from his present interests. There remained Jenny Pendean and his mind wap ceeply preoccupied with her. Indeed, apart from the daily toil of ‘work, she filled it to the ex sion of every other perso: eration. He longed unsp y see her again, for though he corresponded during the progres his inquiries and kept her closely in- formed of ev ft he was doing, the excuse for these commun- ications no longer existed. She had acknowledged every letter, but her replies were brief and she had given him no information concerning he self, or her future intention: though he had asked her to do so. One item of information only had she vouchsafed and he learned that she was finishing the bungalow to her husband’s original plan and then seeking a possible customer to take over her lease. She wrote: “IT cannot see Dartmoor a it means my happiest as well as my most unhap, hours. 1 shall never be so happy n and, I hope, never suffer so unspeakably as I have dur- ing the recent past.” He turned over this sentence many times and considered the weight of every word. He conclud- ed from it that Jenny Pendean, while aware that her greatest jays were gone forever, yet looked for- ward to a time when her pres de- solation might give place to a truer tranquility and content. The fact that this should be so, however, astonished Brendon. He judged her words were perhaps ill chosen ‘and that she implied a swift, er return to peace than in realit§ in, for would occur. He had guessed that a yeat at t, instead of merely these four months, must pass b fore her terrible sorrow could beg: to dim. Indeed he felt sure of it and concluded that he was reading an implication into this pregnant sentence that she had never intend- ed it to carry. He longed to see her and was just planning how to do when chance offered an opportunity. Brendon was called to arrest two Russians, due to arrive at Plymouth from New York upon a day in December; and having identified them and testified to their previous) activit: in England, he was free for a’ while. Without sending any warning, he proceeded to Dart- mouth, put up there that night, and started, at nine o’clock on the fol- lowing morning, to walk to “Crow's Nest,” . ‘ His heart beat hard and two thoughts moved together in it, for not only did he intensely desire to see the widow but also had a wish to surprise the little community on tthe cliff for another reason. Still some vague suspicion held his mind that Bendigo Redmayne might be assisting his brother. The idea was shadowy, yet he had never wholly lost it and more than once cgn- templated such a surprise visit ashe was now about to pay. Suspicion, however, seemed to di- minish as he ascended great heights West of the river estuary; and when within the space of two hours he had. reached .a_ place from which “Crow's Nest” could be seen, perch- ed between the cliff heights an@# a gray; wintry sea, nothing but the anticipated vision of . the wonian held his mind. He came ignorant of the startling events awaiting him, little guessing how both the story of his secret dream and the chronicle of the quarry crime were destined to be advanced by great incidents before the day was done. ‘ ‘His road ran over the cliffs and about him swept brown and naked fields under the winter sky. Here and there a mewing gull flew over- head and the only sign of other life was a ploughman crawling behind his horses, with more sea fowl flut- tering in his wake. Brendon came at last. to a white gate facing on the highway and found that he /had reached his des- tination, Upon the gate “Crow’s Nest” was written in letters stamp- ed upon a bronze plate, and above it rose a post with a receptacle fore holding a lamp at night. The road to the house fell steeply down and, far beneath, he saw the flagstaff and the tower room rising above the dwelling. A bleakness and mel&incholy seem- ed to encompass, the spot on this sombre day. The wind sighed and sent a tremor of light through the dead grass; the horizon was invisi- ble, for mist, concealed it; and fro the low and ash-colored vapor the sea rere: out with its monotonou: myriad ‘wavelets flecked here there by a feather of foam. As he descended Brendon saw a man at work in the garden setting up a two-foot barrier of woven wire. It was evidently intended to keep the rabbits from the cultivated flow- er beds' which had been dug from the green slope of the coomb, (Continued in Our Next Issue) a USER NTN John Burroughs, famous natural- ist, obtained money to buy books by tapping maple trees and selling the sugar in his youth, ~ {iy tee SI OS In fhe last century fresh discov- peries’ Of jade have been ntade in Siberia and Central Europe, Of 145,009 employed boys in Mew ett it York state, 80 per cent had* School at) 14‘or earlier, bd t ae ee = 8, an
