The silver denning method asked for
some nooks ago has just boon sont in.
I am glad not only to publish it, but
to recommend it. for it does away with
hard rubbing ami prolongs the life and
use of your silverware.
• leaning silver: This method re
moves tarnish and decolorations by
immersion- Have an aluminum pan
containing boiling water and add to it
a generous bit of washing soda. About
a tablespoontul to a quart of water.
Pip the silver 111 this oxydixing bath.
But better than this is to use a deep
granite pan. Put the boiling water and
the soda this and then lay in a sheet
of aluminum. The water in the pan
must cover the silver completely and
you watch you will see the tarnished
riares brighten until the whole piece
is a clear white
This method is satisfactory on alt
silver that is not worn through to the
plated ware, but it must not be used on
silver that is oxvdized, for it will ro
move this as well ,as spots.
To make colored kalsomine or tinted
whitewash, with a glos< that can )*>
applied over papered walls: Prepare
the whitewash as usual and then heat
it until it is just boiling. Add, while
it i? hot, one tablespoon of powdered
alum, one i r,p of cooked flour paste and
half a pound of glue chips. Stir until
t'ie is dissolved, then mix indigo,

buff, grey or reddish tiuted wash. Ap
ply this before it is quite cold. It will
! cling to any surface.
This is not so sanitary as painted
walls, but it is much better than soiled
wall paper and very useful for many
interiors that need to he made clean

If it is applied over paper pull off
auy that is loose or fasten it securely
before putting on the wash, for this is
heavy and it will pull it loose.
The recipe for .lavelle water is
wanted again. It seeius to be constant
ly in demand, and no wonder, for it is
the best washing fluid of all: Put one
pound of washing soda into four quarts
of water, add a tablespoon of unslaked
lime. Boil this in a porcelain kettle
until you have but two quarts and a
pint left. Let stand in the kettle until
the lime has settled, then pour the clear
liquid into bottles and throw away the
sediment. Cork tightly and use but one
cupful to a boiler of clothes.
The Old English glass cement is from
a book on collecting ami it is trans

isinglass into a small bottle until it
is almost full. Pour on alcohol and
cork the hottle firmly. Set this in a
water bath or over a radiator until
the isinglass dissolves, when it is ready
for use. It must be warmed each time
'it is used.

"The murderer is still on the ship. ''
I protested. "And just now tbe dei k
is—hardly a place for women. Wall j
1 until this afternoon. Miss Lee. B.\ '
; that time 1 shall have arranged for a
i guard for you. Although God knows.'
with every man under suspicion, where I
we will find any to trust."
"You will arrange a guard!"
"The men have asked uie to take
charge."
"But—l don't utiderstaud. The first
mate"—
"is a prisoner of the crew.''
"Will you allow me to Jeave this!
room for tlve minutes'/"
"If 1 may go with you. and if yon
will come back without protest."
"You are arbitrary!" she said resent
fully. "1 only wish to speak to Mr.
Turner."
"Then—lf I may wait at the door."
"I shall not go under those condi
tions."
"Miss Lee." t said desperately.'
"surely you must realize the state of
affairs. We must trust no one- no
ene Ererv shadowy corner, even
closed door, may hold death In its most
J terrible form."
"You are right, of course. Will you
wait outside"! 1 can dress aud l>e ready
in tive minutes.*'
1 went into the main cabin, now
bright with tbe morning suu. which
streamed down the forward coiupau
ionway. The door to Vail's rooiu across !
was open, and Williams, working in
nervous haste, was putting it in order.
Walking up and down, his shrewd eyes
keenly alert. Charlie Jones was on
guard, revolver iu hand. He came over
I to me at once.
"Turner is moving in there." he said,
jerking his thumb toward the forward
cabin. "What tire you going to do

ders and bang us with a belaying pin!

"lie is the owner. But one tiling we j
can do. .lone-. We can keep him from

He came out more dead than alive. j
"Williams." I said sternly. "I give,
you au hour to get rid of every ounce'
of liquor on the Ella, lieinemlvr. not!
a bottle is to be saved."
"But Misinh Turner"—
"I'll answer to Mr. Turner. Get it
overboard before he gets around."
CHAPTER VI.
Pruonen.
_____
MY first thought had been for the
women, and. unluckily, to save
them a shock I had all evi
w—_J deuces of the crime cleared
away as quickly as possible. Staius 1
that might hare been of invaltiaule
service in determining the murderer
were washed away almost before they
were dry. I realised this now. too late.
But the ax remained, and I felt that .
its handle probably contained a record j
for more skillful eyes than rhine to
read, prints that under the microscope
would reveal the murderer's identity
as clearly as a photograph.
I sent for Bums, who reported that
he had locked the ax in the captain's
cabin. He gave me the key. which I
fastened to a string and hung around
my neck under my shirt. He also re
ported that, as I had suggested, the
crew had gone, two at a time, into the
forecastle and had brought up what
they needed to stay on deck. The fore
castle had been closed and locked in
the presence of the crew and the key
given to Bums, who fastened it to his
watch chaiu. The two hatchways lead
ing to the hold had been fastened
down also, and Oleson. who was ship's
carpenter, had nailed them fast.
'i be bodies—aii ready, Leslie." Burns
said, his face working. "What are we '
going to do with them?"
"We'll have to take them back." j
"But we can't do that. It's a two
weeks' matter, and in this weather"— '
"We will take them back, Burns." I
said shortly, and he assented mechan
ically:
"Aye. aye. sir."
Just how it was to be done was a
difficult thing to decide. Miss Lee had
not appeared yet. and the three of us,
Jones, Burns Hnd I. talked it over.
Jones suggested that we put them in
one of the lifeboats aud nail over it a ■
canvas and tarpaulin cover.
1 shuddered, but the Idea was a good
one. and I asked Burns to go up and
get the boat ready.
"We must let the women op this aft
ernoon," I said, "aud. if it is possible, i
try to keep theui from learning where
the bodies are. We cau rope off a part I
of the deck for them and ask them not
to leave it."
Miss Lee came out then and Burns j
weut on deck.
"You must not keep us prisoners any
longer. Leslie," she said. "Put a guard '
over us if you must, but let us up in
the atr."
"This afternoon. Miss Lee," 1 said.
"This morning you are better below."
She understood me, but she had no
conception of the brutality of the'
crime even then.
"I am not a child. 1 wish to see
them. I shall have to testify"—
"Vou will not see them. Miss Lee." j
"Will you take me to Karen's room?"
I could see no reason for objecting; ;
but so thorough was the panic that,
bad infected ua all that 1 would uot'
allow her iu until I had preceded her. '
and had searched in the clothes closet I
aud uuder the two bunks. Williams I
had not reached this rooin yet. aud
there was a pool of blood on the floor.
She had a great deal of courage. She
glanced at the stain, and looked away
agaiu quickly.
"I—think I shall not come in. Will
you look ai the bell register for me?
What bell is registered?"
"Three."
"Then it was not my sister's bell
that rang. It was Mr. Vail's!"
"It must tie a mistake. Perhaps the
wires"—
"Mrs. Turner's room is utimher one.
Please go back and ask her to ring her
bell, while 1 see bow it registers."
But I would not leave her there
alone. I went with her to her sister's
door, aud together we returned to the
maids' cabin. Mrs. Turner had rung
as we requested, and her bfll had
registered "one."
"He rang for help!" she cried, and
broke down utterly. She dropped Into
a chair in the chart room and cried soft
ly. helplessly, while 1 stood by. unable
to think of anything to do or say. I
think now that it was the best thing
she could have done, though at the
time 1 was alarmed. I ventured, finally,
to put my baud on her shoulder.
"Please!" 1 said.
She stop|ied crying after a time, and
I knew the exact instant when she
realized niv touch. 1 felt her stiffen:
without looking up. she drew away
from my hand; and I stepped back,
hurt and nngry-the hurt for her, tbe
linger that I could not remember that
I was her hired servant.
"Mr. Turner is awake, 1 believe," I
»aid stiffly.
"Very well."
She turned back into tbe main cabin;
but she paused at the storeroom door.
"It is curious that you heard noth
ing." she said slowly. "You slept with
this door open, didn't you?"
"I was locked iu."
She stooped quickly aud looked at
tile lock.
"You broke it open?"
"Yes."
"You are sure it was locked?"
"The bolt is still shot." 1 showed
her.
"Then-where is the key?"
"Tlie key!"
"Certainly. Find the key and you
will find the man who locked you in."
"I'nless." 1 reminded her. "it flew out
when I broke the lock."
"In that case it will be on the floor."
But an exhaustive search of the
cabin floor discovered no key. Jones,
seeing us searching, helped, his revol
ver iu one hand and a lighted match in
the other, handling both with an aban-
"Thi»—thi» is horrible, Leslie," he said
dou of ease that threatened us alter
nately with fire and a bullet. But
there was no kev.
"It stands to reason, miss." he said,
when we hnd given up. "that since the
key isn't here, it isn't on the ship. That
there key is a sort of red hot give
away. No one is going to carry a thing
like that around. Either it's here in
this cabin—which it Isn't—or It's over
board."
"Very likely. Jones. But 1 shall ask
Mr. Turner to search tbe inen."
She went toward Turner's door, and
Jones leaned over me, putting a hand
on iny arm.
"She's right, boy." he said quickly.
"Don't let 'em know what you're after,
but go through their pockets. Aud
their shoes!" be called after me. "A
key Blips into a shoe mighty easy."
But, after all, It was not necessary.
Tbe key wus to be found, and very
soou.
Exactly what occurred during Elsa
Lee's v|»lt to hor brother-in-law's
cabin I have never learned. He was
sober. 1 kuow, and somewhat dazed,
with no recollection whatever of the
previous night except a ha»y idea that
he had quarreled with Richardson.
The voices from Turner's cabin came
steadily, Miss Lee's low tones. Tur
ner's heavy bass only now and then.
Once I heard her give a startled ex
clamation, and both Jones and I leaped
to the door, But the next moment she
waß talking again quietly,
Ten minutes—fifteen-passed. I grew
restless and took to wandering about
the cabin. Mrs. Johns came to the door
opposite and asked to have tea sent
down to the stewardess. I called the
request up the companiouway, un
willing to leave the cabin for a mo
ment. When I came back Jones was
standing at the door of Vail's cabin,
looking in. His face was pale.
"Look here!" he said hoarsely. "Ix>ok
at the bell. He must have tried to
push the button!"
1 stared In. Williams bad put tbe
cabin to rights as nearly as he could.
The soaked mattress was gone, and a
clean lineu sheet was spread over the
bunk. Toor Vall'a clothing, as he had
taken It off tbe night before, hung «n n
mahogany stand beside the bed. and
above, almost concealed by his coat,
was the bell. Jones' eyes were fixed on
the darkish smear, over and around
the bell, on tbe white paint.
I measured height of the bell
i from the bed. It was well above and
to one side—a stnear rather than a
print, too indeterminate to be of any
value, sinister, cruel.
"He didn't do that. Charlie," 1 said.
"He couldn't have got up to it after"—
That Is the murderer's mark. He
leaned there, one hand against the
wall, to look down at his work. And.
without knowing it. he pressed the
button that roused the two women."
He had not heard the story of Hen
rietta Sloane. and as we waited t told
him. Some of the tension was relnx
inc. He tried. »n his argumentative
Herman way, to drag me into a dis
cussion as to the foreordination of a
death that resulted from an accidental
ringing of a bell. But my ears were
alert for the voices near by. and soon
Miss T,ee opened the door.
Turner was sitting on his bunk. He
had made an attempt to shave and had
I cut his chin severely. He was in a
dressing gown and was holding a
handkerchief to his face. He peered
at me over it with red rimiued eyes.
"This—tills is horrible, Leslie," he
Mid. "1 can hardly believe it."
"It is true, Mr. Turner."
"Wh-why was 1 not-called at once?' 1
he demanded.
"I notified you. You were—you must
have gone to sleep again."
"Where's Williams?". He turned to
me.
"I can get him for you."
"Tell him to bring me a highball.
My mouth's sticky." He ran his
tongue over his dry lips. "And—take
a message from tne to Richardson."
He stopped, startled. Indeed, Miss
Lee ami I bad both started. "To—
who's running the boat, anyhow—Sin
gleton ?"
"Mr. Singleton is a prisoner in the
forward house," I said gravely.
The effect of this was astonishing.
He stared at us both, and, finding cor
roboration in Miss Lee's face, his own
took on an instant expression of relief.
He dropped to the side of tbe bed. and
his color came slowly back. He even
smiled—a crafty grin that was inex
pressibly horrible.
"Singleton!" he said. "Why do they
—how do they know it was he?"
"He had quarreled with the captain
last night, and he was on duty at the
time of the—when the thing happeued.
The man at the -wheel claims to have
seen him in the chart room just before,
and there was other evidence. I believe.
The lookout saw him forward, with
something, possibly the ax—not deci
sive. of course, but enough to justify
putting him in irons. Somebody did it,
and the murderer is on board. Mr. Tur
ner."
His grin had faded, but the crafty
look in his pnle blue eyes remained.
"Where are—they?" he asked in a
different tone.
"On deck."
"We can't keep them In this
weather.''
"We must," I said. "We will have
to get to the nearest port as quickly
as we can. and surrender ourselves and
the bodies. This thiug will have to
be sifted to the bottom. Mr. Turner."
He fell into a passion at that, in
sisting that the bodies be buried at
once, asserting his ownership of the
vessel as his authority, demanding to
know what I, a forecastle hand, bad
to say about it. He ended by demand
ing Williams.
I opened the door and called to
Charlie .lones to send the butler, and
stood by. waiting for the fresh ex
plosion that was coming. Williams
shakily confessed that there was no
whisky on board.
"Where is it?" Turner thundered.
"1 ordered it overboard." 1 said.
