Pinkham’a Vegetable ComixMind a trial
after all the evidence that is continually

than any other medicine in the world.

together. Gaston and his wife are
going to Maine for a trip and ask
Nelson 5) live in their apartments.

that have scared them. Going to
the apartment a few days later
Nelson again meets Barbara, his
accidental acquaintance. Nelson
meets the building superintendent.

“I don’t believe in things like that.”

“How do you know?”
“Didn’t I hear him asking meself
about It? He heard them, many
times.”
“How,about the others—the serv

“They may have that. Niggers is

The relations between Mr. Bradford
and Rufus Gaston puzzled me. Miss
Bradford’s recollection of her father’s

Indicated* that he held no high opinion
of him. . My great-uncle’s actions
throughout had been peculiar. His
suddenly sending for me and insisting
on my coming here to live, his Insist

combinatldn of the safe, all now took
on a sinister aspect. It certainly was
peculiar that he had gone off without
leaving me any-address where he could

Then, too, there was my own unex

In some way it was connected with my
having come to this place to live. Had

me? Was It the work of the biack-

”1 don’t mean anyone,” I hastened

“Tt’a me key yoti*re wanting. Is If?"
She produi'ed it from a |MM*ket of
her gown and handed It over, first
unknotting It from a corner of her
kerchief where she had tied it for safe
keeping.
“And indeed If It’s meself you’re not
trusting with a key after Mrs. Gaston
loiting me have It for these ten yearfc
hack. It’s your own bed you can be
making. I’ll not be coming near the
place again.”
In fine Indignation she flounced out
of the place. To tell the truth I was
not sorry that she had announced her
decision not to return. * While my Im
pression of her was that she was-a
i wimple-minded old woman of uttermost
djionesty, I was Just as well satisfied
*that no one but myself should have
entry to the apartment until I had
finished my. investigations and had
made further progress In solving the
mysteries that were so rapidly devel

of the window and was rewarded by
seeing hers appear at the same mo

“We must not talk long,” she warned
now “Someone might ^ee us. Have
you learned anything new?”
“Yes.” I whispered. ‘Tn my uncle’s

“How strange!” she exclaimed.
“Where i# Mr. Gaston?”
“I/don’t know.” .
“That’s funny.”
“It’s more than that. It Is decided

could be reached.”
