PRECEDING EVENTff During a "holdup" at the Dutch Mill, Chicago night club, a patron, Dunn Clayton la killed. Lieutenant Lieuten-ant of Police Stanton question a club visitor, "Buck" Trembly. In Clayton'e pocket Stanton found a note signed "Malsle," making: an appointment with the dead man at the Dutch MIL Stanton la inclined in-clined to suspect Trembly of the murder. At a Wisconsin winter camp a boisterous crowd includes Preston Brown. An apparent stranger arrives. Later, two men, driving, come on the scene. The stranger leaves in hie car, and the two men follow, passing him. A viaduct la out, and one of the two men removes the danger signals. The stranger, In his car, goes over the embankment He Is dead when found. Brown has been killed. In his papers Clayton's name is found and Stanton connects the deaths. He goes to. Wisconsin, and finds the dead man is Trembly. Trembly had caused Brown's death, apparently an accident A Vermont Ver-mont lawyer, John Whlttlesex, reading of the case, recalls the names In connection with an odd will made by a man named Turner. Turn-er. Turner had bequeathed the Interest In-terest on 16,000,(00 to six men, Blair, Ashley, Roberts, Brown, Trembly, and Claytonold friends." The Income, at the death of each beneficiary, Is to be divided among the rest. Turner's son Is left a small income, though at the deaths of the six beneficiaries of the will he is to Inherit all. Turner dies shortly after making the will. Whlttlesex suspects foul play in the three deaths, and writes to the Chicago police. Stanton Interviews Inter-views Asa Darling, one of the executors ex-ecutors of the will. Darling tells him he believes Turner wanted and expected the six beneficiaries of the will to kill one another, they having In the past Injured him beyond forgiveness. The will Is his method of revenge. CHAPTER VI ... -7- Mr. Roberts Makes a Call. tt( OCCASIONALLY you'll hear - from me," Stanton saia to the young couple as they stood In the front doorway of old burial and coffin-length uncertainties. - "Did you ever consider how they will get you out of that house If you live In It until you die?" "It's the window for us," said the boy. . "We're anticipating it, cordially. cor-dially. It will be a romantic escape. Like a bird." "Don't be In a hurry about It," said the lieutenant. "Certainly not," said young Mrs. Turner. "You'll hear from me," said the llleutenant ts he clicked the gate. "You're only three removes from a lot of money." "We couldn't abide it," the girl called after him. The lieutenant waved them farewell. fare-well. He looked at his watch and saw that he had an hour of the morning before lunch, and when he came to his hotel he walked on by It to the Hasbrouck house, head quarters of Washington when the army inarched back from Yorktown to the Highlands. The late October sun was warm, and the lieutenant strolled about within the inclosed grounds, reading read-ing the inscriptions on the French guns of His Christian Majesty and observing contemplatively the tomb of Uzal Knapp, "the last of the Life Guards." . Even more than an Unknown Soldier In Arlington, Westminster, at the Arc de Triomphe or elsewhere, else-where, Uzal Knapp Is the military apotheosis of the enlisted man. His is the lone watch of the Highlands. His name is known, not unknown. His tomb on the bluff by the Hudson is in the living shade of his com mander in chief. . The spot is Uzal Knapp's with the old cannon of an eclipsed Sun King blazing with darts and their assertion of "nec pluribus impar ratio ultima reg-num," reg-num," castings of Berenger at Douay. Democracy has lived. The Sun King Is dead. Three cheers for Knapp! Stanton gave Uzal a soldier's salute sa-lute and walked back to the hotel. In the red-carpeted dining room of the Palatine the colored head waiter wait-er came to him. "Lieutenant Stanton V he. asked. "Yes," said the lieutenant "Mr. Darling has telephoned asking ask-ing you to call him at your convenience." con-venience." ' "Thank you," said the lieutenant He finished his lunch and went to a telephone booth. "Who do you think Is standing on my hearthrugr Mr. Darling asked. "An unfair question. Unless It's Pompey." "It's Ronald Roberts, a bit ner- TOUS." "No," said Stanton. "I assure you, yes. And as Tve told him you are here he wants to see you. The gentleman is fidgety." "May I come right overf Td suggest it" The man Stanton found on Mr. Darling's hearth-rug was trim, of medium height, black-haired with gray above the ears, restless, dandified, dandi-fied, shifty-eyed and undoubtedly in a state of mind. His tailoring was good and his lithe body took it very well A slender gold watch chain crossed his vest and almost constantly he fingered it with one hand or the other. "This is Lieutenant Stanton, Mr. Roberts," said Mr. Darling. 'How do you do," said Roberts. "I'm told you're Interesting yourself In this thing." "Anyone might be interested. I was assigned to it" "The lieutenant will have a great deal to do with it, Mr. Roberts," Rob-erts," said Mr. Darling, "and maybe it would be the simplest start if you would tell him as you told me why you made this visit" "I've Just learned of the death of Clayton and Brown and Trembly," said Roberts. "I've been abroad. When I arrived in New York I read of It and yesterday I saw in the World that a Chicago detective was in White Plains examining the Turner Tur-ner win." "That was my genial little friend, the probate clerk," said Stanton. "He wished me luck and then gave the boys the story. And why not at that? Let's see, when did you read this?" "Yesterday morning." "That's right for what I seem to have asked you, but when did you read of the death of your friends?" "A week or ten days ago." "If the story Interested you, you might have cut it out Sometimes people do." Roberts took a clipping from his pocket "That's right" said Stanton, glancing at it and returning it ''You are familiar then with the principal known facts, but that story was printed October 11. This Is October 23. What catfsed you to come to Newburgh today?" "Is this a police examination?" "Yes. The beginning of one." , "I'm not sure I'm prepared to submit sub-mit to one." "Don't give that dilemma a thought Jusf answer questions. Why did you come here today?" "I've been perplexed and concerned. con-cerned. It suddenly occurred to me that Mr. Darling was the one for me to see." "Well, Mr. Roberts," said the lieutenant, lieu-tenant, "you observe that your Income In-come has been Increased, whether the method perplexed you or not" "What do you mean by that?' "The divide is only three ways Instead of six, as I understand It," said the lieutenant "Even If the news of the death of your friends was a shock there was that consolation." consola-tion." "Friends 1" he exclaimed and laughed sharply. "What I want , to know Is what's It all about? Who is killing these men and why? You can't explain It by coincidence. That's too fishy." "What do you make of It? You don't Imagine that it Is all among friends, reducing the overhead to increase the dividends?" the lieutenant lieu-tenant asked. "What else can I think?" Roberts made a gesture of impatience which suggested dismay. "Why should you think so? You three who are alive were supposed to be in Europe. We find you here. Are we to conclude that you were the one who took the red lights away from the bridge approach?" "G d, no, manl" Roberts almost yelled it "Well, then," Stanton persisted, "the whole theory breaks down. Even If Turner-will beneficiaries did start cracking one another out for Increased returns there must have been a character not in me rint on that Wisconsin road. You . hPrf. but Innocent The other two are abroad." T was at this point that Roberts nervousness became quite apparent an frlzht There's where you're crazy," he said. "They're both here. H 1, man! They're here. Wasn't Ashley Ash-ley on the boat with me? Blair probably was, too." "Probably?" the lieutenant asked. Couldn't you know?" "Frankly, I kept to my cabin after I saw Ashley. I assumed Blair was with him. I didn't trust them. If i wanted to commit murder a ship's the place to choose." You'd be an awful fool If you did," said the lieutenant "But why did murder occur to you? You didn't know anything of Clayton, Brown and Trembly then." "Ill refer you to the Turner wilt said Roberts, "and then to anyone who has had a chance to know Blair and Ashley. The whole thing was only a question of who and when. Turner wrote that plot Europe Eu-rope wasn't big enough for the three of us. That's why I was coming com-ing back; Blair was with Ashley on w. I aaw them both on Fifth Ana aw r Beauty Talks By MARJORIE DUNCAN A A A Famous Beauty Expert I'm not going to be hunted down." "Mr. Roberts," said the lieutenant "as you may have surmised, I am In doubt I have some convictions and some of them concern you, but there are many doubts. We know Arthur Trembly shot Dunn Clajton or had him shot We know Arthur Trembly threw Preston Brown on e knife blade. We know Arthur Trembly Trem-bly ran off the road and was killed. But we don't know, you see, who took away the red lights. If you and Blair and Mr. Ashley had been in Europe at the time and had remained re-mained there you might have left us speculating as to what agencies you could have employed, but we could not have placed any one of you on the road by the lights. But it appears that you were all three In this country. When did you arrive, ar-rive, Mr. Roberts?" Roberts looked at his questioner as if he suspected his answer would not be satisfactory. "I landed October 7," he said. "And your boat?" "The Empress of Australia." "Oh," a reflective exclamation from the lieutenant "Did I misunderstand misunder-stand you, Ron, when you said you landed In New York and that Mr. Ashley was on the boat with you?" "That was a slip, a'n inadvertence. inadver-tence. We were on a Canadian boat I came direct from Montreal to New York.' "You landed at Montreal, and not Quebec?" "Naturally, for the connection to New York." "Odd. The Empress of Australia does not go above Quebec. Another inadvertence, probably. The ship's list will prove that you were on the Wik ft 1 s myff "You D n Little Louse! Will You Come Clsan?" boat Your hotel registration In New York will prove you went there. Consequently you didn't go from Quebec to the Eagle River region re-gion of Wisconsin, you were not there October 3 because you did not land until October 7. We've got to give the three of you that break, Ron. All we need is a verification of It on the ship's list and the hotel ho-tel register." "You'll not find It I didn't use my name in coming over." You d n little louse! Will you come clean? Pompey, bring me three feet of garden hose." The lieutenant arose to meet Roberts Rob-erts face to face, and Stanton's bulk and conviction dwarfed the other's physical and moral nature. "Come clean, before I handle you. Come on, now. Pompey, get me the hose." Mr. Darling rose In horror. "Stop!" he cried. "What Is this In my house?" Stanton turned to him and smiled. Your Roman centurion. Profes sor.

When did you landr I Roberts was silent v moment. I came over September 15 and landed land-ed in New York." "Was It the truth that Ashley and Blair were on the same boat?" Stanton Stan-ton asked. "Yes; that is, I saw Ashley as I said. I keut to my cabin, but I saw Blair with Ashley a few days after landing." "Not yesterday, then?" "No, it was five or six weeks ago." "So. The entire six of you were here two weeks before the first of these killings." "That's true, but now listen, Mr. Copper. I'm not an assassin. I've been covering, but it's been to protect pro-tect myself. That's alt I don't mind hazard and danger. Pve had them in my day. But I can't stand being stalked like game. I haven't got the nerves to be expecting a shot from the brush or the alley. So I've been going to pieces In a way, D n them. If they would shoot It out I'd take them on, but I'm not equal to this assassination. That's all there is to It Lieutenant can't stand It I'm not hot enough. I can't kill first So I've got to wait for it I can't do it . You can say I'm yellow. I guess I am if this Is the game. I could have killed Ashley and Blair. There wasn't much chance of its being difficult or dangerous. I could have got Ashley any time at sight, out on the deck, even in his room. Who In h 1 would have suspected me? I could have got Blair in New York. What's another murder In New York? But I can't do it I want to throw them off me. That's why came here. I give up my share. I'll get along." "But, Mr. Roberts," said Lieuten ant Stanton, "you can't give up to their satisfaction. So long as you live there Is an Impediment to the redistribution of the estate in the hands of the sole surviving beneficiary. bene-ficiary. And that I think, is the object being pursued." T think you're right" said Rot erts. "I've tried to think it other wise, but I can't I may be yellow. but I can't go through with it" "Of course yotf're yellow," said the lieutenant -Roberts turned on Mm. "No copper cop-per can tell me that I've been more places which asked for guts than any copper ever saw." "One of them made Thomas Turner Tur-ner your enemy," said Stanton. "You might tell us that piece of yellowness." "Lieutenant," Mr. Darling pro tested, "this has been Interesting, but" "I know what your objections would be, Mr. Darling, but isn't our pattern defining Itself? You may know why Mr. Turner made this will. I can guess. Mr, Roberts here knows. Roberts, do you want to tell us?" "I presume Turner thought he had been Injured. He was wrong as to me." "How were you six associated with Mr. Turner?" the lieutenant asked. "And where?" "Once, for me," said Roberts. "I don't know about the others. The seven of us were In a Peruvian Jungle. Turner was taken desperately desper-ately ill. I volunteered to make a dangerous trip to get a doctor. I don't know what happened. I got out but I couldn't get back. I was too sick myselt I don't know what the others did." "You were Inclined to think that Mr. Turner was sincere when be said his bequest to you was in gratitude?" "It was unexpected, but I had no reason to think it was In enmity." "It would seem that he planned a massacre and evidently not In gratitude. grati-tude. He must have been pretty sure of the character of some of Choice of Toilet Preparations WITH science and genius helping help-ing beautv culture to make such splendid strides, the choice of an effective facial preparation has become a simple matter Indeed. Women study themselves, their beauty needs. They also study various va-rious preparations. They experiment experi-ment to see whether the preparations are suited to Individual needs. So that the choice of a cream or lotion lo-tion is becoming more and more exact ex-act more and more scientific Having with confidence chosen a preparation, the next step is to know exactly how It should be applied. The maximum In efficiency and beauty can be hoped for when preparation prep-aration plus method are right It Is essential for' the modern woman to know how to give herself a rejuvenating and refreshing re-freshing treatment A telephone call may mean a last- minute engagement Then, she is challenged by the new beauty need, the wish that she could do it all for herself, the desire to know how, Method Is equally Important as the choice of preparations, and method has not been sufficiently em phasized. Give an intelligent wom an the reason for doing a certain thing a certain way; explain the how of it and you will have appealed ap-pealed to her sense of reasoning. The directions read: "Apply upward and outward to counteract the nat ural tendency for muscles to sag and droon downward." DlrecUons for using a bicacn should warn the purchaser not to apply too near the eyes or nostrils. Because even a mild bleacn is too strong for the delicate tissues around the eyes. And bleaches should never be used too near the brows and lashes or the hairline for fear of lightening the hair. A skin tonic should be made to do double duty. When sponged over the skin It removes every trace of cream or grease. Apply on a piece of absorbent cotton and patted up ward and outward with brisk slapping slap-ping movements, It stimulates the circulation, regulates the oil con tent of the skin and promotes its health generally. Directions should emphasize the wisdom of removing creams and lo tions as carefully as they are ap plied, always upward and outward, patting off as gently and firmly as sou pat when the preparation is ap plied. Thus the elasticity of the skin is preserved, without stretch ing and without breaking the Ucll cate tissues.

Use Cosmetics Subtly N SPITE of the many millions of dollars spent annually on cosmet Ics, the number of women who have never known the enhancing effect of rouge or powder is staggering. And they do not constitute bacn woods people or those "out-on-the-farm," far away from civilization. RIcbt in our big cities you will find them. Some still cung to me ultra-conservative and ultra-old fashioned idea that it Is sinfully wrong to use a bit of rouge. These women have to be educated to the modern way of doing and the modern way of applying mate-up. The art of make-up has passed throuch many stages. The expert mental stage when women applied so little, they failed to achieve the desired effect; then the exaggerated stage when they ruined the effect by the other extreme. But modern make-up methods have, fortunately, achieved the happy medium. Rouge is delicately deli-cately applied and blende to lend a look of natural bloom and health. The color seems to come irom beneath the skin. A look of health and beauty it lends life to the face and sparkle to the eyes. Powder Is not put on In pounds not today. Its purpose Is to give th skin a toned-down, well groomed look, to put the finishing touch to a picture or periecuon. And a lipstick gives the lips more color and deftly used It Improves the outline. One can wear upstics without "telling the world." It need not be bold or obvious. Modern make-up methods really make women lovely. The function of make-up Is to give back to the skin that natural, neaitnrui glow, which the fast pace of modern Uv-j tag takes from the skin. If yoa are one of the tnonsands who have not yet started to use make-up, throw off the shackles of oldfashloned ideas, get up enough courage to go to the best store In vour vicinity. A capable salesgirl can help you to choose a rouge of frriAil ouailty. proper texture and consistency for you. a shade to match your skin. She can explain exactly how It should be blended, too. Ail this applies to powder also.
