At first sight, Mrs. appeared an ordinary, rather at- tractive, pretty and well dressed gentlewoman. For an appreciable number of seconds the gaze of Dr. Charters met that of Mrs. Lauderdell, as the blade of one fencer holds that of another, in silence and stillness, ‘as each watches and waits. The silence was broken by the woman. “Is she getting better, Doctor?” “I wouldn't say that.” “But she's going to, Doctor?” There was a clear note of anxie- ty in Mrs. Lauderdell’s voice. “A difficult question. It depends on so much.” “On very much, Doctor?” Dr. Charters slowly nodded his {head. devil is the matter Lauderdell asked sud- Lauderdell Withqut speaking she opened her | handbag and from it took a mem- orandum case.

Entering his consulting room and closing both doors, Dr. Charters proceeded to make upon the case- card of Miss Marjorie Lauderdell entries showing a swift downward progress accompanied by marked mental deterioration. Suddenly rais- ing his eyes, he realized that a tall, broad-shouldered gray-haired man stood between himself and the open window. On his face was a look: of menace and hatred. In utter amazement the Doctor stared as the intruder exclaimed: “Half-hung Simon!"” (Copyright, 1930, by Frederick . Stokes Co.) Threatening death averted by a broken limb!
