he did net nay It. Her eyca had
tiavelcd past the lawyer and fixed
themselvea en Klrby Lane. He saw tbe
recognition grew in them, the leap of
triumph in her as the long, thin arm
shot straight toward him.
"That'e the man I"
A tremendous excitement buzted In
the courtroom. It was as though sonic
ena had exploded a mental bomb. Men
and women craned forward te aee the
man who had been Identified, the man
u he no doubt had murdered James
Cunningham. The murmur of voices,
the rustic of rklrt8, the (shuffling of
moving bodies til. id the air.
The Corener rnppcd for order.
"Slience in the couitreom," he said
sharply.
"Which mnn de you mean, Mrs.
Ilull?" nuked the lawyer.
"The big brew n man sittln' nt the
end of the front bench, the one rigut
behind you."
Klrby rose. "Think preb'ly she
means me," he suggested.
An eflkcr in uniform passed down the
nihlc and laid a band en the cnttlcman'H
shoulder. "You're under anest," he
bald.
"Fer what, officer?" asked James
Cunningham.
"Fer the murder of your uncle, sir."
In the tente silt nee thnt followed rose
it little threat keuikI that was net quite
a sob and net quite a nail. Klrby
turned his hend toward the back of the
room.
Wild Ilo-.e was standing in hei place
looking nt him with dinted eyes tilled
with incredulity und horror.
I "A few year age my fatb.r fell Inte
financial difficulties. He wau'faced with
bankruptcy. Cunningham net only re

months later. IUh death was due te n
breakdown caused I by Intense worry.
"Yeu felt that Mr. Cunningham
ought te have helped him?"

young. What my uncle did was the

"Yea."
"And quarreled Wth him?"
"I wrote him a letter an' told turn
what I thought of him. Later., wheu

"Yeu bad a bitter quarrel?"
"Yes."

clearly, dominating the crowded room by
the drama' of Itn undramatle timber.
"My uncle waa sittln' In chair, tied
te It. Ills head was canted n little te
one side an' be was toekln' up at me.
There was a bullet hole in his forehead.
He wan dead."
iThe veiled woman .in black gasped
for air. Her hend sank forward ami
her slender body swayed,
"Loek out!" called the witness te
the woman beside her. ,
Ilefore Kit by could reach her, the

He steeped te lift her bead from the

The face of the woman In black, was
the original of the photograph Klrby
had seen in his uncle's room, the one
upon which had been written the
words, "Always, Phyllis."

nppearnnce of sun -burned cemwtcnc '
nbeut him, n crisp confidence born of,
the rough-and-tumble life of the out-deo-
West. He did net leek Hke a
cold-blooded murderer. Women found
themselves hoping that he was net. The

vanished at sight of him. A man bad

Your dentist will tell you that four people out of
every five past the age of forty have Pyorrhea.
And thousands of younger persons are victims of
this dangerous enemy.
Are your gums sere or tender? De they bleed
when you brush your teeth?
If se, go te your dentist at once and start using Ferhan'a
Fer the Guma immediately.
Fer bleeding gums are an early symptom of Pyorrhea which
quickly loosens the teeth, until 'they drop out or must be
pulled, and causes poisonous pus pockets te which scientists
trace many serious ailments.
Yeu can prevent Pyorrhea, or arrest its course, by the con.
Bistent use of Ferhan's Fer the Gums in
sufficient time.
Brush your teeth with Ferhan's twice a day
or oftener. It will keep your teeth and
gums in a healthy condition.
Remember four out of five ere caugh by
r-yerrnea eecause tney are neglectful. fM ,,tj
Start using Ferhan's Fer the Gums today. "i J fflV
