In the hall the physician hesi- tated, then spoke under his breath: “Come this way, Thorne.” And side by side the two men walked the short distance to Arnold Wins low's bedroom. Winslow lay sleeping partly on | nis right side. Tre doctor turned | back the sheet and blanket, which were pulled up to his chin, and ex- | posed his throat. On theMwhite flesh bruises were distinctly visible. | With a movement so deft that it elicited McLane's silent commenda- | tion, Thorne drew out a small mag- | nifying glass and studied the marks on the skin, then gently replaced the bed covers without disturbing | the sleeping man. | It was not until they were in the | lower hall once more that the detec- | tive spoke. Was he choked into insensibil- he asked, in little more than 2 whisper. “I would say so,” cryptically, “but his wife claims it w another heart attack.” McLane picked up his hat and overcoat and with a significant jerk of his head in the direction of the card room, led the way there irstead of toward the front door. Mrs. Winslow’s statement that | her husband has put the Kane case in vour hands has decided me to speak of certain facts,” he hesitated, [then with a quick, friendly smile; “perhaps I'll regret my impulse, but with an appraising glance at Thorne nding gravely by him, “I feel you will respect my con- fidence.” < “I will” and the finality of the tcne pleased the physician. “It is not my custom to discuss conditions I find in the homes of my patients,” he went on. “A doc- tor is frequently looked on as a father confessor, and we cannot Lelp becoming aware of information not intended for publication.” “I understand supplemented Thorne quickly. “Suppose I que: tion you,” and as McLane nodded his acquiescence; “Where did you find Mr. Winslow unconscious?” “In bed,” succinctly. “Mrs. Wins- {low said he fainted in her boudoir, and that with the help of Lambert she got him to his own room and on [the bed when he fainted again. He regained consciousness soon after T got here and dropped off to sleep. {1 so happens” McLane leaned |against a corner of the larger ma- hogany card table: “that Winslow came into my office ten days ago, complaining of failing eyesight; so he underwent a strict physical ex- amination at the request of his oculist; the tests gave no indication o/ any heart trouble.” “How about his blood pressure?” “Just above normal; mothing to have produced this condition,” with a wave of his hand toward the ceil- ing. “I told him to quit drinking bootleg liquor and perhaps his sight | would improve.” “Is he a hard drinker?” quickly. ot ordinarily, no.” McLane hesitated. “I imagine Mrs. Winslow cid not always approve of some of the stag parties he gave,” with a reminiscent chuckle, then sobering instantly; “by the way. she's the gray mare in the stable and no- body's fool.” “And yet she told you her hus- band was ill from a heart attack?” McLane shifted his weight to his right foot. erhaps she was kid- ding herself,” he suggested; ‘vou | can never tell about a woman.” Thorne's eyes gleamed under his | heavy lashes. “Is Mr. Winslow at- | tentive to other women?"” he asked, | auickly. The doctor shook his head. “Not im my knowledge,” he answered. |From what I've seen it is a most Larmonious household.” | “Even since jthe advent of Miss Chase?" and McLane caught the cager note in his voice and looked ac him questioningly. So far as I know, yes,” he re- plied. “Miss Chase is a remarkably rretty girl. It is a great misfortune that she is so crippled.” Thorne came closer. *“Have you attended her professionally?” Then, the physician shook his head, ‘were vou ever asked to by Mr. Winslow 2" 1 light- “Never. Why?" observing Thorne with interest. The latter did not reply immediately. “It strikes me as strange,” he said dlowly, after a moment,* that Mr. Winslow should have sent for Dr. Kane to come from Boston to examine Miss Chase when Yyou, their family physician, are here on the spot.” (Copyright, D.

Stockholm Oct.ober 7 — (UP) — Sweden, too, has a Foreign Legion, but it is made up of sons of emi- grants who wish their heirs to keep the Swedish nationality and there- fore send them here to perform their military service. Some of these boys hardly know Swedish. Thus a conscript by the name of Dahl, born in Tanger, is |now enrolled in the Royal Svea Bodyguard and a Spanish born lad named Glas is in the same regiment. The machine gun company has three young Swedes, born in Fin- land, and from Egypt there are al- | ways some recruits.
