Ri ho SYNOPSIS: Frankie Derwent IS not to aure Roger BasslniBton-ffrench murdered thf mnn identified as Alexander Prtlcliaid as utio was when she staged an "accident" with the help ol Bobby Jonet. and secure! Admittance to the Busstngton-flrench country house. She Is convinced afeo Hint the victim's real name was Alan Oaritalrs, althoiiBh that remains to be proved. Meanwhile the name o( a Dr. Nicholson, a Canadian running a drus cure nearby, has eulered the equation. Chapter 20 DIt. NICHOLSON Prank ie attacked Svlvia the fol lowing morning. She started by ash lug carelessly: "What was that man's name you mentioned last night? Alan Car stairs, was It? X feel $urc I've heard that name before." "I dare say you have He's rather a celebrity In his way, 1 believe He's a Canadian a naturalist and big game hunter and explorer. I don't really know him. Sou.e friends of ours, the Rlvlngtons, brought him down here one day for lunch. A very attractive man big and bronzed end nice blue eyes." "I was sure I'd heard of him." "He'd never been over to this country before I believe. Lust jeu. he went on a tour through Africa with that millionaire man, John Sa vage the one who thought he had cancer and killed himself in that tragic way. Carstairs has been all over the world. East Africa, South America simply everywhere, I be lieve." "Sounds a nice adventurous per son." .said Frankie. "Oh, he was. Distinctly attract ive." "Funny his being so like the man who fell over the cliff at Marchbolt," said Frankie. "I won der If everyone has tf double." They compared instances, but Frankie was careful to make no further references to Alan CarEtairs, In her own mind she was quite con vinced that the victim of the cliff tragedy at Marchbolt had been Alan Carstairs. He fulfilled all the condi tions. He had no intimate friends or relations ill this country, and his disappearance was unlikely to be noticed for some time. Very good then. The next step was to learn more about Alan Car stairs. His' connection with the Bas-sington-ffrenches seemed to have been of the slightest. He had been brought down there quite by chance by friends. What was the name? Rivington. Frankie stored it In her memory for future use. "I don't want to be poisoned or knocked on the head.'' she thought with a grimace. "They were ready enough to bump off Bobby for prac tically nothing at all" Her thoughts flew off at a tangent to that tantalizing phrase that had started the whole business. Evans! Who was Evans? Where did Evans fit In? VA dope gang," decided Frankie. Perhaps some relative of Carstairs was being victimized, and he had de termined to bust it up. Evans may have been one of the gang who had retired and gone to Wales to live. Carstairs had bribed Evans to give the others away, and Evans had con sented and Carstairs went there to sec him, and someone followed him and killed him. Was that somebody Roger Bass- j lngton-ffrcnch? It seemed very un-! likely. The Criymans, now, were far more what Frankie imagined a gang of dope-smugglers would be likely to be. That evening Dr. Nicholson and his wire were expected to dinner. Frankie was finishing dressing when she heard their car drive up to the front door. Her windew faced their way, and she looked out. A tall man was just Plighting from the driver's seat of a dark-blue Tal ACROSS Alack Water vapor SlUtty proper Diplomacy City hi Califor nia no defeated llomnn em peror Movo upward ItelRiilnR boiiuly Mini Closed tlfhtly liock 'as tens Continent; abbr.

Frankie withdrew her head thoughtfully. Carstairs had been a Canadian. Dr. Nicholson was a Canadian. And Dr. Nicholson had a daik-blue Talbot. Dr. Nicholson was a big man with a manner that suggested great re serves of power. His speech was slow and on the whole he said very 111 -tie, but he contrived somehow to make every word sound significant. He wore strong glasses, and behind them his very pale bUe eyes glitter ed reflectively. His wife was a slender creature of perhaps 27, pretty, indeed beautiful. She seemed, Franke thought, slight ly nervous and chattered rather fev erishly as though fo conceal the fact. "You had an accident. I hear. Lady Frances," taid Dr. Nicholson as he took his seat beside her at the din ner table. Frankie explained the catastro phe. "That was too bad.' he said, as she finished, having peihaps mace a more detailed story of it than seem cd strictly necessary. But you seem to have made a very good recovery. "We won't admit she's cured yet. We're keeping her with us," said Sylvia. The doctor's gaze went to Sylvia. Something like a very faint smile came to his Hps, bur passed almost immediately. "I should keep hei with you as long as possible," he said gravely. Frankie was sitting between her host and Dr. Nicholson Henry Bas-sington-ffrench was decidedly moo dy tonight. Ills hands twitched, he ate next to nothing and he took no part in the conversation. Mrs. Nicholson, opposite, had a difficult time with him and turned to Roger with obvious relief She talked to him in a desultory fashion, but Frankie noticed that her eyes were never long absent from her husband's face. Dr. Nicholson was talking about) life in the country. "Do you know what a culture is, Lady Frances?" "Do you mean book-learning?" asked Frankie, rather puzzled. "No, no. I was referring to germs. They develop, you know, in specially prepared serum. The country, Lady Frances, Is a little like that. There is time and space, and infinite leisure suitable conditions, you see. for development." "Do you mean bad things?" "That depends, Lady Frances, on the kind of germ cultivated." Idiotic conversation, thought Frankie. Why should it make you feel creepy? Yet it did I She said flippantly, "I expect I m developing all sorts of dark qualities." He looked at her and said calmly: "Oh no, I don't think so, Lady Fran ces. I think you would always be on the side of law and order." Was there a faint emphasis on the word law? Suddenly, across the table Mrs. Nicholson said, "My husband prides himself on summing up character." Dr. Nicholson nodded his head gently. "Quite right, Molra. Little things interest me." He turned to Frankie again. "I had heard of your accident, you know. One thing about it Intrigued me very much." "Yes?" said Frankie, her heart beating suddenly. 'The doctor who was passing. The one who brought you in here." "Yes?" "He must have had a curious character to turn his car before going to the rescue." 'I don't understand. 'Of course not. You were uncon scious. But young Reeves, the mes senger boy, came from Staverley on his bicycle, and no car passed him. Yet he comes around the corner, 31 Cleansing agent 23. Term of re spect 24.

"I don't remember." said Frankie. "I don't think so." "You sound like a detective, Jas per," said Mrs. Nicholson. "And all about nothing at all." "Little things interest me." said Nicholson. He turned to his hostess and Frankie drew a oieath of relief. Why had he catechized her like that? How had he found out all about the accidentr "Little things Interest me," he had said. Was that all there was to it? Frankie remem bered the dark-blue Talbot and the fact that Carstairs had been a Ca nadian. It seemed to her that Dr. Nicholson was a sinister maw. She kept out of his way after din ner, attaching herself to the gentle, fragile Mrs. Nicholson she noticed that all the time Mrs Nicholson's eyes still watched her husband. Was ir love, Frankie woncered. or fear? "Well," said Roger after they had gone, "what do you think of our Dr. Nicholson? A very forceful per sonality, hasn't he?" "I'm like Sylvia, 'said Frankie.

"Brown Speck." said Old Profes sor Big Wings, "I want to give you wis piece oi paper on which, in my best webbed printing, Is engraveu the fact that you have been gradu ated from my class." Brown Speck took the piece of paper which was made out of a thin piece of bark and bowed before Pro fessor Big Wings. Then the Profes sor offered a foot to shake. As they did this they both toppled over Into the pond, but they proved to oe excellent swimmers. "Ah, quack, quack," quacked Mrs. Quacker, "I always say that 1 want my grandchildren to be good at sports as well as at studies. See how Brown Speck can swim I" After this all the ducks had re freshments. But Brown Speck became the cen ter of a fight. He wanted to show he knew all about bugs by eating as many as he could and then telling everyone what kind they were. uan t you tell without eating. Brown Speck?" "No. no," he said, "one who has studied bugs as I have, knows that one cannot be certain unless or, has proved the problem." ' "A lot of talk," quacked the little ducks, "to get away with a lot of eating." And Mrs. Quacko, who overheard this, thought that really Mra. Quack er had wasted Brown Speck's time in having him so educated. He hai merely learned how to be greedy.
