A fort night later Olive Dumbarton 1M found in her library holding a dagger over the dead body of her husbanu. She 1» arreated ana held for trial, aud detectives are put on the ease George Bostock, the publisher, and Valerius Ualbralth take an active lutereßt In the in vestigations, and the former la uhadowed by luspector Mack worth Angela Mezza, an Italian woman, swears to Mrs. Dumbarton and Inspector Mackworth that the murder wan committed by her husband. The Inspector discovers Pletro, a model and former companion of Mezza. Richard Headwick, on leaving Oxford had devoted himself to literature and failing to acquire fame or fortune, had then turned critic and publisher's reader, and finally became manager of Bostock's business. The publisher's natural gravity, re serve and self-suppression at first un favorably impressed Headwick; but gradually recognizing his employer's mental strength, deep feelings and sen sitive disposition, he saw that Bostock was not an ordinary type of man. but that he held within himself emotional forces which under certain circumstances might become strong factions for good or evil in his own life or in that of others. By degrees a mutual regard, founded on understanding, arose between these men brought into daily association and with many tastes in common; a regard that slowly gathering strength, eventu ally developed into a sincere and faith ful friendship on both sides. Now when Headwick heard from Mackworth of the accident which had happened to the publisher, his regreat and anxiety were great, and he instantly prepared to start for the hospital that lie might see George Bostock if possible, or if not, that he might learn the state of his condition for himself. But before Ileadwick could leave his rooms Mack worth put a few questions to him re garding the publisher's relatives and friends. "He has no relatives; of that I am perfectly sure," replied Headwick as he snatched up his hat and umbrella. "And his friends?" "Well, I suppose I may consider my self his closest friend. You know, of course, he was much interested in Mrs. Dumbarton ?" "I was aware of that," replied the in spector drily. "You think there is no one else who should be told of this acci dent in case of—" "Why, it's not so bad as that?" ex claimed Headwick abruptly. "Perhaps not, but it's always well to—'* "No, there's no one else," Headwick answered as he hurried down the stairs of his chambers in Gray's Inn and rushed into Holborn in search of a cab. Mackworth followed slowly? debating with himself whether he should tell Mrs. Dumbarton what had happened or not. Eventually he decided to consult her cousin on this point, and leave it to him to act as he thought best. Valerius was at home and on seeing the inspector looked at him expectantly. "You have news?" he said, anxiously. "Not of the kind you desire, sir," an swered Mackworth, who then proceeded to tell what had befallen George Bos tock. Galbraith's prominent blue eyes bright ened with excitement. *'l will say nothing about it to Mrs. Dumbarton at present; she has troubles enough already without adding to them," he said.* "But she will read of it in the news papers," suggested Mackworth. "She never looks at a newspaper now, fearing she might see something unpleas ant about herself." "But if Mr. Bostock dies?" "It will be time enough to tell her then." The inspector felt that there was noth ing more to be said on the subpject. He had noticed that no word of sympathy, no expression of regret had fallen from Valerius on hearing of the publisher's misfortune, and Mackworth was shrewd enough to gauge the feeling which ex isted in Galbraith's mind and to guess its cause. The inspector said good night and turned away, but scarcely had he reached the door when Valerius called hiin back, his voice sounding somewhat strained, his manner betraying hesitation. Look ing at him, Mackworth saw that his eyes were full of eager inquiry, that his pale face was full of pained agitation. "Supposing that—that Mr. Bostock dies?" he said, with emotion. "Yes." "Has it never struck you—has it never occurred to you that a secret—a secret you are now striving to fathom might die with him?" Mackworth looked at him with some surprise, thinking that Galbraith's sus picions had gone hand in hand with his own. "Such an idea did strike me, sir." i"Have you any clew—any direct clew connecting him with this—this deed?" asked Valerius quickly. "If I had he would have been arrested beforetthis.l' 1 Valerius was disappointed. "Yet I feel sure " "Circumstances seem to point in that direction, sir. Do you know anything which would help me to a discovery?" "No, no, I have merely had my sus picions "Nothing more?" questioned Mack worth. "Nothing more. If he dies the blame will still rest upon Mrs. Dumbarton?" "Time can only tell," replied the in spector laconically. CHAPTER XIX. Early in the morning a skilful opera tion was performed on George Bostock by Sir Pugli Tate, who, having enlarged | the wound, removed the depressed por j I tion of the bone. Immediately after it i had been raised the patient opened his | eyes, and cosciousness returned, j When he had been carried back from the operation theatre to the private ward I I he occupied, and was once more in bed. ' one of the first persons he saw was i Headwick, who bent over and took his ; j hand. ; "Where am I?" the patient asked in j a faint voice. "In University Hospital." "How long is it since the accident hap pened ?" "Only last night The surgeon thinks you are doing well and will be all right i shortly." Bostock heard the words with atten- j tion, and after a considerable pause ! asked: "Is there any danger of—death?" "Not the least," Headwick cheerfully answered. Bostock's dark eyes fixed themselves j on space; no sign of satisfaction, relief | or pleasure had shown itself upon his face at the words which promised him ■ a continuance of life, nor did the thought j , that filled him with inward emotion be tray itself to his friend, though its ef fect was presently seen when the patient i gave a sudden gasp as if for breath and then closed his eyes. In a moment the sister was beside him. "He has fainted," she said as she hur ried to apply restoratives. The house surgeon, just then absent, was quickly called, and after attending to his patient he turned to Headwick, saying: "I fear your presence has excited him, and as he must be kept quiet you had i better leave now before he becomes con ! scious again." Headwick reluctantly took his depart ure, nor was he, on calling in the after noon, allowed to see Bostock. And next morning, on presenting himself, the same prohibition was extended to him, 011 j which he asked for the house surgeon. 1 When the latter appeared his manner j was grave, and, 011 Headwick inquiring ! if he might not see his friend, the sur- 1 | geon shook his head. •«I will confess tliat I have murdered David Dumbarton." | "After you had left,"' he said, "there was free bleeding from the wound, and the pulse went up to eighty-eight. This must have been caused by excitement.'' "I know of nothing which could cause him excitement," answered Headwick, his mind going back to business affairs. "Is he better now?" "I am sorry to say he is much worse," the surgeon answered, quietly. "Worse?" exclaimed Headwick, appre hensively. "Yes, there is loss of motor power in the left arm, which I fear is gradually increasing. There is as yet no loss of sensation, and he can freely move his left leg.' - "Is loss of motor power a dangerous symptom ?" "It is one which I regret to see," the surgeon cautiously replied. "Is he conscious?" "Quite."' "Then pray let me see him; it may be a relief to him." After some slight hesitation Headwick was allowed to visit his friend, on the condition that he did not remain longer than five minutes. On Headwick enter ing the ward Bostock looked at him eag erly, as if he had been long expecting him. Headwick explained why he was unable to visit him the previous day, add ing that he was now permitted to re main only a few minutes. "Any news?" the patient asked, a look of apprehension in his feverish eyes, for ' which !iis friend could not account. "No, business goes on quite smoothly. Set your mind at rest." "I was not thinking of business," the publisher said hastily. "Of what, then?" "The tragedy—the TToxton Road trag edy," he said, with a rapid utterance wholly tinlike his usual manner. "As you know, the trial doesn't take PICTORIAL MAGAZINE AND COMIC SECTION RAIN CSATSffi lUVOFIIIt SIAK IR.SUIIIU.K -f - \ [ Y/ .

Eh?" ; "I think not. You musn't excite your self." j "No, I must keep quiet," Bostock said. I striving to subdue his emotions, and 1 presently adding: "Go and see Mack worth—say I sent you—and you may ! have some news for me when you come • heer again." After promising to obey Headwick, ! whose time was up, took his departure, i grieved at what he had heard of his I friend's condition, but as yet unappre | hensive of the future and unprepared for j what was to come. The day wore tedi ously by, and he was just thinking of calling on Mackworth when a telegram from the house surgeon of University ! Hospital was put into his hands, re ; questing his immediate presence. | Without daring to think what might J await him he jumped into a cab and a j few minutes later was talking to the house surgeon. "I am sorry to say Sir Pugin Jiinks your friend's symptoms give rise to the gravest fears," the medical man ex plained. "The loss of power at the left side is now complete; his temperature is no. The internal bleeding has been re newed. "Then you think he cannot live?" "I believe he's beyond all hope, and as it's best he should know he cannot re cover, I sent for you to break the news to him. He may wish to settle his af fairs." "ITas it come to this?" asked Head wick. his distress apparent in the tremor of his voice and the pallor of his face. "Yes, and there is no time to lose," saying which the surgeon led Headwick I * ■ —— to the ward once more, where lie was to perform the hardest task that had ever \ fallen to his experience. He could never afterward remember in what words he conveyed this terrible message of irresistible fate, but he hoped the pity he felt made them fall with lighter weight from his lips than if they had come from a stranger. They elicited no surprise, no terror, no grief. There was even something of satisfaction, con tetnnient and relief in Bostock's manner as he said: "I thought so; I felt from the first that I must go; it is better I should." There was something of apprehension and supplication in his voice as he turned to Headwick and said: "Bring George Coris here at once and don't delay." "No; your own solicitor?" "No; my will as already made. There is something more that I must do, lose no time,' he said, in an urgent, impatient tone. "Something more?" repeated Head wick, startled, not so much by the words he heard as by the feverish, breathless manner in which they were uttered. Yes, I will make a full confession be fore I die." ou ?' said Headwick, incredulously. "I George Bostock, said, raising his bandaged head, the wild light in his eyes lending a terrible expression to his white, distorted face. "I will confess that I have murdered David Dumbar ton." CHAPTER XX. Half an hour after George Bostock an nounced his intention of making a con- j fession a little crowd had gathered in the ward where he lay, a scared, weird look ' >IPB.

It was wth something of relief that they heard George Coris raise his clear, distinct voice, and addressing the pa tient, say: "I will now read to you the confession ! of murder you have made in the presence of a magistrate, and other witnesses here assembled." George Bostoek moved his head by way of response, his eyes fixing them oqjw 'jojpijos OIJJ uodn K[jaaeo SOA[JS after a second's pause, took up the docu ment he had written and read it aloud as follows: "I, George Bostoek, of my own free will, and in anticipation of my immedi ate death, do hereby make confession that on the night of the 21st of Septem ber last, I encountered the late Davi J Dumbarton in the Hixton Road near his wife's house, whereupon a quarrel en sued between us which led to blows, and ended by my inflicting 0 wound upon him from which he died a few minutes later in the presence of his wife, whose pro tection he sought. "And I furthermore declare that I, without solicitation or aid, but in a mo ment of passion committed this grievous crime, the blame of which I deeply de plore to have allowed to rest upon one entirely innocent of its guilt. And in token of the truth of these statements, "I take my oath in the presence of wit ness and subscribe my name." The oath was hurriedly taken; then with feverish eagerness he held out his hand for the pen with which he hastily wrote hi 3 name. Then letting it drop from his fingers, he, with an air of in tense relief, lay back upon the pillow of that narrow bed from which he might rise no more, his face ghastly, his eyes luminous, wild and fixed upon space, his mind heedless of what went on around him, the appending of the witnesses' sig natures, the dispersal of the group which had witnessed this scene, the approach of the doctor. George Coris lingered a moment at the door while he spoke to Mackworth in a subdued voice. "I will undertake to do that, sir," the inspector replied. "You will see him at once?" "Yes. I will drive to his place without delay." " Then I will leave the matter to you. Don't forget to explain it was impossi ble for me to call on him this evening."' "1 will not forget, sir," Mackworth re plied. (To be continued.) Home Economies. By MINNA SCHATT CRAWFORD. This is the season of the year when the housewife's nimble fancy turns to the making and baking of Christmas sweets and cakes. The flavoring ex tracts which enter into the composition of these goodies are not only expensive, but much given to adulteration. There is but one safe way to get sure and pure flavoring extracts at little cost, and that is by preparing them at home, j The sense of security one feels, the rich delicacy of the flavoring, and the very great saving in money are more than sufficient compensation for the little trouble involved. In a recent article in Good House keeping on the quality of flavoring ex tracts, R. 0. Brooks, formerly State Chemist of New Jersey, and food in spection expert of the Pennsylvania dairy and food commission, writes as follows: 'Chemical analysis proves the astonishing fact that out of sixty-two brands of flavoring extracts purchased in the open market, only twenty-six were found to be legally pure." "Of the eight brands of vanilla extract found to be adulterated or of very poor quality, two were found to contain wood alcohol. The use of wood alcohol, the injurious effect of which on the optic nerve is an established scientific fact, in a household preparation used in food (and frequently, as in ice creain, not dis sipated by cooking) is reprehensible, in fact, criminal. It constitutes one of the forms of food adulteration that can be classed as dangerous to health, the great majority of food adulterants being worthless, fraudulent or inferior, but harmless substitutes, which cheat our pocketbooks, spoil our cooking, and cor rupt our palates." Many vanilla extracts, particularly those marked "compound," are mere so lutions of artificial vanillin in a very weak alcohol, reinforced with prune juice and colored with caramel (burnt sugar) or a coal tar dye. Such a prod uct is necessarily much inferior in flavor and wholesomeness to a genuine vanilla extract. The vanilla "bean," correctly speaking, is not a bean at all, but a long pencil shaped pod, containing thousands of mi mite black seeds. It is the fruit of a vine (vanilla planifolia) belonging to the orchid family, originally found in Mexico, but now cultivated in South America, Java, Mauritus and other trop ical regions. The finest vanilla beans attain a length of from eight to ten inches and can be bought at retail for about twenty cent apiece. One of these beans will mak.' half a pint of the very best vanilla ex tract by the following simple method Cut a large, plump vanilla bean into tiny morsels with a silver knife, being very careful to save all the little tiny seeds which fill the inside of the bean, and the white, sugary looking particles that form a bloom on the outside. Place the_ cut-up pieces in a bowl of china or white enamel ware, cover with two thirds of a glass of cold water and place on the back of the coal range, or where ever it will heat very slowly; cover closely and let stand for three or four hours; do not let it come to a boil.

Wherever it is impossible to get the best grade of vanilla beans, either of the following formulas had best be used: Two ounces of vanilla beans, cut into small pieces, placed in a wide-necked jar and covered with one pint of pure grain alcohol. Let stand closely covered for two weeks, strain through filter paper j and it is ready for use. | The standard formula of the U. S. j Pharmacopoeia is : Half pound of vanilla j beans cut small into one quart of proof pirit. Keep closely covered for two weeks, strain through filter paper, and it is ready for use. This forms the best quality vended by druggists and sold at exorbitant prices. When vanilla flavor is desired for ice cream or custards it is best to use the vanilla bean instead of the extract. A very small piece of bean, of say, an inch in length, will flavor a whole quart of ice cream. It should be added to the cream before cooking. The woody part of the bean can be removed before serv ing. The tiny black spots caused by the presence of the vanilla seeds are not at all objectionable, as they are prima-facie evidence that the true vanilla bean and not the villainously rank tonka bean or other fake vanillas have been used. Fruit flavorings, such as orange and lemon, are even more easily accom plished than vanilla, since they make use of the peel, which otherwise would be thrown out. To make orange flavoring for cakes or candies wash the oranges very clean before peeling. Use a sharp knife and pare very thinly in order to avoid the white or bitter portion of the rind. Take the thin peel of about six large oranges, or enough to weigh a quarter pound, cut fine, place in a white enamel or china bowl, cover with half pint cold water, place on back of coal range where it will heat very gradually, let stand about four hours, but do not let it come to a boil. Remove from stove, when cool place in a bottle, add half a pint of water and half pint of sherry wine. The wine may be omitted if preferred. Lemon extract is made in almost ex actly the same way. To quarter pound of thin lemon peel which has been finely minced add half pint cold water; bring almost to the boiling point in au enamel or China bowl; let it stand to cool, strain closely through cheesecloth and bottle; add one pint of pure grain alcohol or Peppermint Extract.—This may be half pint alcohol and half pint Rhine or sherry wine. made from fresh mint leaves carefully washed and stripped from the steins, then cut into shreds and covered with pure grain alcohol in proportion of half pint of alcohol and quarter pint of water to quarter pound of the fresh mint leaves. Place in a well stoppered bottle or jar, let stand two weeks, shaking at frequent intervals; this makes a deli cious flavoring for after dinner mints or to flavor meat sauces. Ihe druggists' formula for mint ex tract is half an OUtlCe of oil of pepper mint to half a pint of alcohol. To this add a handful of peppermint or parsley leaves _ and let stand a week to color. Druggists sometimes use sap green to color mint extract when leaves are not obtainable. \\ intergrcen extract is made by add ing one ounce of the true oil of winter green to half pint of pure grain alcohol and_ coloring with cochineal. Be careful to imprc-s the druggist that you want true oil of wintergreen, otherwise he may substitute the synthetic oil of win tergreen, which is a coal tar product and used in certain lotions and liniments for external application only, and is a deadly poison when taken into the stomach. Many confectioners use this synthetic wintergreen as flavoring because of the I great expense of the true oil of winter preen. which costs about thirty cents an ounce.

Ginger extract, made of the fresh green giner, or of the dried white root when the green is out of season, is very pleasing for use as an addition to stewed dried fruits, such as pears or apples, as well as flavoring for ginger cookies. Cut up two ounces of ginger root, cover with scalding water, let stand until cold, strain into a bottle, and add half a cup of pure grain alcohol. A mixture of ginger and lemon ex tract makes a delightful combination for flavoring hot pudding sauces, also for cookies. CANCrcitOt. PERMANENTLY Ct'rtES C4NCEK AND TIIMOH. No pain Xo senr.
