I vTi I p k Wtf Is a Clean Cutter 7 iw mi I I f A Mystery Unraveled By MARY G. COLBY My father died before my mother, and at ber death a woman who had been In the family kept up the bouse and took care of oie. I was then a girl of ten, Dot old enough to kuow anything about tny affairs or why Ming Meade assumed the position she occu pied. Bbe was not uu agreeable per son, as I remember her In those days, but she was all I bud In the world to love, and 1 tried to love ber. Bbe gave me to understand that she bad promltied my mother at her deatb she would take care of me and Bring me up. The only person wbo ever to my knowledge came to see ber was a smooth faced professional looking man, wbo used to have long conversa tions with her. After awhile I learn ed that his name was Cheatham and that he was au attorney. There was something repellent about him, and whenever he came to the house 1 touk pains to keep out of bis way. One thing did not coincide with Miss Meade's statement that she was sup porting me. This was that while she was miserly with regnal to herself she was liberal with regard to me. 1 b:ul all the expensive clothing I wished and was never denied anything needed or coveted. 1 was educated at the beat schools and at sixteen was sent to a finishing school. One thing Mtsi Meade positively forbade I was not allowed to visit any of my schoolmates The day before I was eighteen years old Mr. Cheatham called to see Mis M ea de. a nd 1 hey bad n discussion which. Judirirr.: from their eiirmsiness must h;n e ln-mi a vitv tmpor::nil one I heard Mr Cheatham Bay, "If you'll lenvo It to me 1 can brim: it out ail rijiht without any great ri.-li; IT you manage It as you propose you'll wreck yourself and me too." The words made no Itnpn slon on meat the time, for I su ppo.su I they re ferred to some private matter between the lawyer and Miss Meade that did not concern me. Afterward I thought a great deal about them. When I came of age. and especlully after this Inter view, 1 noticed that Miss Meade was very much absorbed about something and appeared worried. To be worried was unusual with her, she being one of the most composed persons I ever ; met ' I was now old enough to wonder ; where the money thut was spent on me Hud I was spending came from. I put a few leadinj.' questions to MKs Meade, which she parried. I began t" ! think there was some mystery In our relations, but was not prepared to hi list on knowing anything she did no! tell me of ber own free will. Having been brought up with the Idea that I owed everything to her. 1 did not care to risk "killing the goose that laid the golden otrg." One day when she was not at home I wished for something from the store room. She alwitys kept the room lock ed, and no one knew where the key was except herself In a box contain ing metal odds and ends was a bum h of keys. I tiled (hem one by one llh I found one that would unlock the door I wKhrd to pass. I'inrudiui: from n desk was a paper, wtik-h t po tested myself uf. anil found It to lie a letter writ i en by my father to my mother before they were married de lariiii; that he had (,'lven her up. since he whs pooi' and she possessed a primely fortune. This was ustonNhlng uews to me. How could It be that I was-dependent upon one who had been my mother's 'lotiseh iid manager and must have aft r my fit liter's death taken a part In he management of his nlYalrs 1 he San to surmise an explanation. I bad not heard cither that my mother had been rich or had lost her property. It looked to me that the money I was spending must be derived from that fortune my father referred to. The more 1 thought about the matter the further 1 went in my Inferences till I iH-iran io suspect that Miss Meade had taken advantage of my tiaviui; fallen Into her hands when a child to get hei lutein's on my mother's fortune I confess I did not know hnv t-.:mt-e In ttie matter. Had I been a nan It would have been easier, but for a girl not far past eighteen I could eo no way of uncovering the uiys tery. Keeping my suspicions from MN Meade. I resolved to secure advice The father of one of my schoolmates was a lawyer, and through her I se tired an Interview with him. He got nil the Information I could give him alxMit my father and mother nnd pit mi ised to look the matter up. It was not loin; before through his daughter he asked me to call uou him. ami when I did Po he told me that my mother trul died leaving n preat dent of un pnvduotlve property, which was now vie Mim; n fine Income. And this was the money on which I wrs living ami procuring all I wished for. Hut what was Miss Meade s oh loet In telling me that I was depend ent tipnn her? l v In iv i-up nm lit mn tst mninil , the fact that I had this knowledge and iiniil tt tvnrli tn Invn-stlc'iti mr nriti erty. no rouna itnit ror years .miss Meade, whom my mother had left nit j guardian, aided by Cheat ham. had ' iHM'n endeavoring to Involve the estate m drtt to br.
