I gathered up the fragments of Morgan's lantern and went back to the library. The lights In half the candlesticks had sputtered out I extinguished the remainder and started to my room. Then, In the gi;eat dark hall, I heard a muffled tread as of some one following me not on the broad staircase, nor In any place I could Identify yet unmistakably on steps of some sort beneath or above me. My nerves were already keyed to a breaking pitch, and the ghost like tread In the wall angered me. Morgan, or hla ally, Bates, undoubtedly, 0 reflected, at some new trick. 1 ran Into my room, found a heavy walking stick and set off for Bates' room on the third floor. It was always easy to attribute any soi t of mischief to the fellow, and undoubtedly he was crawling through the house somewhere on an errand that boded no good to me. It was now past two o'clock and he should have been nsleep and out of the way long ago. I crept to his room and threw open the door without, I must say, the slightest Idea of finding him there. But Bates, the enigma. Bates, the incomparable cook, the perfect servant, sat at a table, the light of several candles falling on a book over which he was bent with that maddening gravity he had never yet in my presence thrown off. He rose at once, stood at attention. Inclining his head slightly. Yes, Mr. Glenarm." Yes, the devil! I roared at him, astonished at finding him sorry, I must say, that be was there! The stick fell from my hands. I did not doubt he knew perfectly well that I had some purpose In breaking In upon him. I was baffled and in my rage floundered for words to explain myself. I thought I heard some one. in the house. I dont wnnt you prowling about in the night, do you hear? "Certainly not, air," he replied In a grieved tone. I glanced at the book he had been reading. It waa a volume of Shakespeare's comedies, open at the first scene of the last act of Winter's Tale. Quite a pretty b!t of work that, I should say, he remarked. It was one of my late masters favorites. Go to the deyil! I bawled at him, and went down to my room and slammed the door in rage and p , s s o d . whom.'

One of the doctors told me that the only thing to do would be to try Grape Nuts, so I got some and prepared it as follows: I aoaked 1 tablespoonfuls in one pint of cold water for half an hour, then I strained off the liquid and mixed 13 teaspoonfula of this strained Grape-NutJuice with six teaspoonfula of rich milk, put in a pinch of salt and a little sugar, wanned it and gave It to baby every two hours. In this simple, easy way I saved baby's life and have built her up to a strong healthy child, rosy and laughing. The food must certainly be perfect to have auch a wonderful effect as this. 1 can truthfully say I think it is the best food in the world to raise delicate bablea on, and is also a delicious healthful food for grown-upns we have discovered in our family.

Going to bed at three o'clock on a winter morning in a house whose ways are disquieting, ater a duel in which you escaped whole only by sheer good luck, does not fit one for sleep. When I finally drew the covert over me it was to lie and speculate upon the events of the night in connection with the history of the few weeks I had spent at Glenarm. Larry had suggested in New York that Pickering waa playing some deep game, and I, mysolf, could not accept Pickering's statement that my grandfather'! large fortune had proved to be a myth. If Pickering had not stolen or dissipated It, where waa it concealed? Morgan waa undoubtedly looking for something of value or he would not risk his life in the business; and it waa quite possible that be waa employed by Pickering to search for hidden property. Thla Idea took strong hold of me, the more readily, I fear, since I had alwaye been axlous to aee evil in Pickering. There was, to be sure, the unknown alternative heir, but neither she nor Sister Theresa was, I imagined, a person capable of hiring an assassin to kill me. On reflection I dismissed the idea of appealing to the county authorities, and I never regretted that resolution. The seat of Wabana county was 20 miles away, the processes of law were unfamiliar, and I wished to avoid publicity. Morgan might, or course, have been easily disposed of by an appeal to the Anmandale constable, but now that I suspected Pickering of treachery the caretakers importance dwindled. I had wanted all my life for a chance at Arthur Pickering, and in thla affair I hoped to draw him into the often and settle with him. I slept presently but woke at my usual hour, and after a tub felt ready tor another day. Batea served me, as usual, a breakfant that gave a fair aspect to the morning.
