A cry broke trom Wilton's lips; he
raised his arms and let them fall again,
Payne glanced at the jury. Thelr eyes
were riveted on Kitty's face. He knew
that he had scored. A disagreement
even an acquittal—Iif all went well,
“Thank you," he said quietly.
The crown attorney, who had been
whispering with Bowyer, came for-
ward to cross-examine,
“You told us, Mrs. Bostock,” he sald
in his suavest tones, “that you loved,
and still love, the defendant. How
long have you loved him?”
“Ever since I first saw him,” whis-
pered Kitty.
“How soon after your marriage did
you make his acquaintance?”
“I saw him first on my marriage
day, at the church. He was my hus-
band's best man.”
A stir among the spectators, Payne
clenched his fists and groaned. Every-
one saw what was coming-—everyone
but Kitty.
“Then you were in love with him
before vou married Mr. Bostock? Not
long before—let us say half an hour?
You married a man whom you had
ceased to love for half an hour?

“But you realized it soon after?

Kitty desperately

“Put them out of here” he bawled
“It's a trick—a staged trick to win

“Be silent!” thundered the judge;
and then he turned to Payne, who
was at his side, speaking in a low
voice,
“The court will adjourn for half an
hour,” he ordered. “And no person
will leave this courtroom in that Inter
val."
Molly, with a little cry, ran to the
dock and flung herself into Wilton's
arms. And at this the bullding rang
again with the spectators’ cheers, It
was not for a full minute that the
guard drew her away.

CHAPTER XXII
The Amazing Truth,
“Donald MeDonald to the witness
box!” sald’ the court clerk.
Helped by Payne and the policeman,
the old factor made his way painfully
toward it and sat down,
Death was upon him ; so meager and
weak he looked that it seemed as If
the man lived only in the Impassioned
fire of his eyes and the purpose that
knit together his trembling body.
“You are acquainted with the clir-
cumstances of Joe Bostock's death?”
asked Payne. “Tell us what you know
about it.”
“I killed him,” sald McDonald, sim-
pls.
Bowyer leaped to his feet; the
crown attorney, turning, as if he had
been prepared for the movement,
pushed him down sharply Into his
chair.
Then the story, at last unsealed,
burst from the factor's lips In an ir
resistible flood.
“Ave, I shot Joe Bostock!” he cried.
“Often I'd warned him what would be
if ever he came betwixt me and mine.
And when he sent Will Carruthers
there to steal Molly from me-—for I
ken weel that was Joe's doing—I
knew the time had come,
“Tom Bowyer there had a hold on
me. Aye, Tom, your time's come, now,
and I've listened to ve so long ye'll

back was turned. I drew a bead on
his heart and fired. They bhith fell
down. I ran back to the store and
went to bed. Jules didna see me, and
Molly hadn't come hame.”
He groaned und hung his head upon
his breast. The voice of Payne cut the
silence like a knife,
“You are teiling this of your
free will, McDonald? he asked.
“As God is my witness! I'm tellin’
this because my time's come now, and
I wouldna have Will Carruthers swing
for that red fox yonder”
“What was the nature of Mr. Bow-
yer's hold on you, McDonald?”
The crown attorney stood up with a
wry smile,
“I object to that question,”
quietly.
“I'l put it in this way, then:
did you hate Joe Bostock?”
“Aye, I'll teil that,

1 You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best
Have you ever gtopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex
tensively advertised, sll at onee drop out
of sight and sre socom forgotten? The
reason is plain—the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curstive value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says, “Take for
example Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, s
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case jt shows excellent re
sults, as many of my customers testify,
“No other kidney remedy has so large a
sale.”
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of Dr,
Kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulfills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments, corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid
which causes rheumatism.
