enough, later.

me. Mr. Jamieson?"
I!- fc^d the trace to look uncomfort
*1 'e. "So." he said. "If you had
killed Mr. Armstrong, you would have
leu no clews. You would have had
too touch intelligence.”
After that we got along better. He
was f; king in his pocket, and after
a minute he brought out two scraps
of paper. “I hare been to the club

Mr Jamfewcn smiled at my face.
"Ms old tricks." he said. “That

said before, is puzzling.”
The second scrap, folded and re

"To an extra bathroom." I said
scornfully. "Haven t you a thumb

His audacity was the on'y thing
that saved me: his amused smile put
me cm my m t-U’e. and I ripped out a
perfectly good scallop before 1 an

"Why did I step into the tulip bed?"
I asked with interest.
"Toa picked up something." he said
good-humoredly, “which you are go

"Am L indeed?" I was politely cu
rlews "With this eaaarkable insight
of yours. 1 wish you would tell me
w here I shall find my four-thousand
dollar motorcar.”
"I was just coming to that." he
said. "You will find it about 30 miles
away, at Andrews Station, in a black
smith shop, where it is being re
paired.”
I laid down my knitting then and
looked at him.
"And Halsey?” 1 managed to say.
"We are going to exchange infor
mation.” he said. "I am going to tell I
you that, when you tell me what you
picked up in the tulip bed.”
W'e looked steadily at each other; It
was not an unfriendly stare; we were
oaiy measuring weapons. Then he
smiled a liit’e and got up.
"With your permission,” he said, ”1
am going to examine the card room
and the staircase again. You might
fhirk over my offer in the meantime."
He went on through the drawing
room, and I listened to his footsteps
growing gradually fainter. I dropped
my pretence at knitting and, leaning
back, 1 thought over the last IS hours.

I was roused by hearing Mr. Jamie
son coming rapidly back through the
drawing room. He stopped at the
door.
"Miss Innes," he said quickly, "will
you come with me and light the east
corridor? I have fastened somebody
in the small room at the head of the
card room stairs."
I jumped up at once.
"You mean—the murderer?" I
gasped.

"Possibly," he said quietly, as we
hurried together up the stairs. "Some
one was lurking on the staircase
when 1 went back. I spoke; instead
of an answer, whoever it was turned !
and ran up. I followed—it was dark
—but as I turned the corner at the
top a figure darted through this door
and closed if. The bolt was on my
side, and I pushed it forward. It is a
closet, I think.” We were in the upper
hall now. "If you will show- me the

Trembling as 1 was, I was deter

hardly knew what I feared, but so
many terrible and inexplicable things
had happened that suspense was
worse than certainty.
“I am perfectly cool." I said, “and I
am going to remain here.”
The lights flashed up along that end
of the corridor, throwing the doors
into relief. At the intersection of the
small hallway with the larger, the cir
cular staircase wound its way up. as
if it had been an afterthought of the
architect. And just around the cor
ner. in the small corridor, was the j
door Mr. Jamieson had Indicated. 1
was still unfamiliar with the house,
and I did not remember the door. My
heart was thumping wildly in my ears,
but I nodded to him to go ahead. 1
was perhaps eight or ten feet away—
and then he threw the bolt back.
"Come out," he said quietly. There '
was no response. "Come—out,” he j
repeated. Then—I think he had a re- j
volver, but I am not sure—he stepped j
aside and threw the door open.
From where I stood I could not see i
beyond the door, but I saw Mr. Jamie- ;
son's face change and heard him mut- 1
ter something, then he bolted down
the stairs, three at a time. When my j
knees had stopped shaking, 1 moved
forward, slowly, nervously, until I had
a partial view of what was beyond the
door. It seemed at first to be a clos
et. emptv. Then I went close and ex
!
aniined it, to stop with a shudder.
Where the floor should have been was
black void and darkness, from which
came the indescribable damp smell
of the cellars.
Mr. Jamieson had locked somebody
in the clothes chute. As 1 leaned over
I fancied I heard a groan—or was It
the wind?
CHAPTER VII.
« A Sprained Ankle.
I was panic-stricken. As I ran along
the oorritlor I was confident that the j
mysterious intruder and probable mur-:
dere-r had been found, and that he
lay dead or dying at the foot of the:
chute. I got down the staircase some
how, and through the kitchen to the
basement stairs. Mr. Jamieson had
been before me. and the door stood
open. Liddy was standing in the mid
dle of the kitchen holding a frying'
pan by the handle as a weapon.
"Don't go down there," she yelled,
when she saw me moving toward the
basement sairs. "Don't you do it. Miss i
Rachel. That Jamieson's down there
now. There's ouly trouble comes of
hunting ghosts; they lead you into
bottomless pits and things like that, j
Oh, Miss Rachel, don't—" as I tried
to get past her.
She was interrupted by Mr. Jamie
son's reappearance. He ran up the
stairs two at a time, and his face was -
flushed and furious. i
"The whole place is locked." he said
angrily, "Where's the laundry key
kept?”
“It's kept in the door." Liddy
snapped. "That whole end of the cel
lar is kept locked, so nobody can get
at the clothes, and then the key's left
in the door, so that unless a thief
was as blind as—as some detectives,1
he could walk right in.”
“Liddy," 1 said sharply, “come down
w ith us and turn on all the lights.”
She offered her resignation, as us
ual. on the spot, but 1 took her by the
arm, and she came along finally. She
sw itched on all the lights and pointed
to a door just ahead.
“That's the door," she said sulkily, j
“The key's in iL" i
But the key was not in iL Mr.1
Jamieson shook it, but it was a heavy
door, well locked. And then he stooped
and began punching around the key
hole with the end of a lead pencil.
When he stood up his face was exul
tant.
“It's locked on the Inside." he said
in a low tone. “There is somebody in
there."
“Lord have mercy!” gasped Liddy,
and turned to run.

MODERN COW-BARN TO
SHELTER NINETY ANIMALS
Details of Con*ptete Structure and So Designed That Its
Capacity May Be Increased or
Decreased at Will.
Floor Plan for Large Dairy Barn.
A plan Is shown herewith of a mod
ern dairy barn, with capacity for
ninety cows. As will be seen by the
floor plan, there are stalls for eighty
milk cows, ten stalls for dry cows or
young stock, two bull stalls, and a
large calf pen in one wing of the pro
posed barn, says a writer in Farmers’
Review. The opposite wing has eight
single stalls, and four double stalls
for the horses. Opposite the horse
stalls or stable Is a large feed room;
also a large room for the wagons. The
two silos are each 18x34 feet In the
clear, and will hold ISO tons of silage
each, or sufficient for feeding 100
cows. The barn Is very complete, and
so designed that its capacity may be
increased or decreased, without affect
ing the general arrangement or the
exterior architectural appearance of
the barn. The two wings may be built
later if desired. Possibly every dairy
man would not want the horse barn
in connection with the dairy barn. The
main barn can be built larger or small
er, as required.
The barn as designed has a gambrel
roof, or as some call it. a double or
hip roof. The walls are twelve feet
10 the eaves, and the lower story eight
feet in the clear. The stalls are built
uf gas pipe, and the pipe supports the
celling. The cows stand back to back,
but this may be reversed If desired*
The entire floors, gutters and mangerd
are formed of cement. The walls anti
ceilings receive two coats of Portland
cement, both exterior and interior.' j
The mangers are arranged to be flood
ed when watering the stock and th^
floor has drain traps at convenient!
points for draining away the wasl\
water with an ordinary one-inch hose.
The entire barn, including the walla •
and ceiling, may be washed down in
short time. The gutters have four
inch drain tile leading to manure pltsj
| The silos are of cement, as is the
foundation. The roof is covered with;
manufactured roofing, and all exposed
woodwork receives two or three coat a
of best paint.
Feed and litter carriers are Installed
and reach all parts of tb- barn. Thej
walls have ventilating ducts or shafts,
between the studding at proper dis-’
tances. leading to vent starks in the,
roof. The studdings are 2x6 Inch, and
the ventilators are built between
same. The stucco, or cement finish'
for the exterior walls, compares favor
ably with the wood construction,
where sand is not too expensive, and
it requires no paint, no repairs, is?
wartn in winter and cool In summer
It will last practically forever.
SUCCESSFUL IN
SHEEP RAISING
Bcsrinners Should Study Care*
fully the Methods and Prac
tices of Men Who Hava
Profited by Experience.
(Kv R R RUSHING.»
When you start with sheep or pre
pare to start you can approach some
■heepmen with such questions as you
lesire information upon
There are a !ot o! good sheepmen
n the country. They are willing to tell
■ on it you ask them what are the
’rocks" you would wreck upon. Then
s it no: good judgment to consult such
uen?
The first question about environment
ind condition will be largely set
led by the circumstances, financial
md otherwise, of the beginner.
We suppose he is an average farm*
>r with perhaps TO or SO acres of land
md wishes to keep sheep—a small
'ock—In addition to his other stock.
4e tas very little knowledge of sheep
ind consequently knows little about
)reeds and has little idea of what he
could like best
Would it be wise for him to be
empted to foolishly select some breed
hat his neighbors, who are making a
;uccess of sheep, do not have, or per*
inps know nothing about, and for that
;ole reason?
We are safe In following the prac
ise ot men who have made a success
if the business, with slight chauges as
■onditions would demand. 1 should
»uy trora one of the neighbors it his
heep were healthy and suited me. If
had very little money I would buy
ew at first
A beginner once bought fire ewes—
md culls at that—paying $10. They 1
lad been bred to a pure bred ram. He I
mt them in a field adjacent to a box i
tall where he fed them some oats dur- i
ng the winter.
They brought eight lambs. The best ‘
amb he said to a neighbor for fire dol
ars, half the cost of the dock. Four
luck lambs sold to the butcher for $15.
rhe three ewe lambs were kept to in
irease the flock.
The next season the eight ewes with
3 lambs following were sold immedi
itely alter shearing Tor $35. A clear
irofit ot course, counting wool and
nanure to balance keep ot the flock.
The great secret ol this success was
care. This is only one of the many ex-;
amples of just such kind of business
that can be done when the man is de
termined to do the business.
Dairying on Poor Farm.
A poor geueral farm by intelligent
management through dairying may;
be made into a rich farm and bsf
placed on a high paying basis. It is
the most direct and the cheapest way
of feeding the soil and of making it
grow more fertile and productive each
year. Rough and concentrated feeds
given to dairy cows not only go for
producing milk and butter, but for
rich fertilizers to build up the soil
with the proper handling of the
manure. The man who makes dairy
ing one of the main branches of his
farming, and sticks to it for a num
ber of years, may not get rich quick
ly. but he is sure to get rich sooner
or later.
Capacity of Milk Bottles.
The capacity of milk bottles Is
something which at the present time
is occupying the attention of the citv
sealer in all the large cities. In grad
uating thousands of bottles recently
all bottles that were found one or
more drams under capacity were
marked so much short and all bottles
running over in capacity were marked
O. K., which would leave the con
sumer to believe that none were over
capacity and that they were being j
wronged by short measure. In fact,
the consuming public were getting
many thousand quarts of milk more
than the number of bottles would in
dicate.
Kilting Tree Pests.
When the leaves begin to grow, the
canker-worm may commence to move '
up on the trunks of rruit and other
trees. Bands of tar or printer’s ink.
if put on the tree trunks in time, will
catch many of the pests.
As soon ns the leaves start on cur
rant or gooseberry bushes, cut out all
slckly-looking or non starting canes
and promptly burn the cuttings.
Borers are probably within and in
this way they can be kept in check '
___________ * *;
Box for Setting Hen.
Twelve to fourteen inches square i
are about the proper dimensious for
a box in which to set a hen. A larger j
box will give the eggs room to scat- '
ter and thus be chilled, while a smaller
box may crowd the hen. resulting in
broken eggs.
