The one thing he talked out was

Lax ton's arrival at Woodcot, the

Tho last episode of that agitated
day was almost as bizarre any.
Cousin John had accepted a
ctearet from mo and risen from tho

dining room, and I saw him stiffen
as IiIh Rlnnco fell on tho window:
be had at at tablo with hla hack

"What madness!" lie muttered,
and drew the curlalnu across.

Ilo relaxed and said a word of
apology to my mother.
1 le slept In the room I.axtnn
had occupied tho night before.
When 1 went to see him In the
morning ho said he thought the
bent tiling bo could do was to report
sick ami stay In his room till ho
had news. Then nobody who might
hear of Cousin John would he sur
prised if he was nuver visible. Not
word passed between us nbout
Veronica or Mrs. Soabroko, nor did
I say anything of the events at
N'ew.)neo on tho previous day.
I did mention In tho course of
the talk tho name of Tell. His faco
darkened.
"I should prefer," anld he, "not
to discuss Pell."
Veronica's bltto eyes had put me
Into a very curlons position. That
fact hf.d been evident the night be j
fore. It simply shrieked at me at ;
breakfast time. j
My mother was down first. When j
1 entered tho room she poured my
co flee, then handed mo tho news- j
paper and said:
"I'll leave you now. I shall be
In the garden." j
This was unusual, I divined
some Intention. As soon as I
opened tho paper, 1 saw It. She
wanted mo to reflect before ex
claiming. Tho paper contained a short and
extremely sketch account of the
affair at New nines Abbey the i
shooting of Tell through tho key
hole by some unknown marauder
who had half murdered Professor
Uixton before wholly murdering

I gathered that this would bn '

I ho most etllclent "sleuths" who In I

Varnish Has Many
Possibilities and
Preserving Qualities
By the Architects Small
House Service IJurcuu of the
United HtwU's, Inc.
The more familiar we are with
the pioductK which supply tho fin
ishing touches to our woodwork and
furniture, the better results we can
obtain fiom thdr use. livery house
wife knows that varni.h han highly
protective propcrtietj that It resists
dirt and preserves the wood from
deterioration bt:t few realize just
why this is so. A little understand
ing of the component parts of thhi
useful medium, tho process of its
manufacture, and the various
prudes which are. available will
guard a':airi:;t lto misuse.
Most modern varnish is composed ,
largely of tung oil commonly
known ub China wood oil) and
rosin. Tin? two are heated in a
copper, or Moncl mctul kettle. The i
rosin prevents tho tung oil from !
solidifying when it reaches a high i
teiripenture. Fonuil gums and
nyr.lhetie gums, an well us Unseed :
oil, are ah.o added in many cusps. !
When "cooltlng" is complete the
kettle Is withdrawn from the fire
and allowed to cool to the proper
temperature, when the "thinners"
turpenthie or mineral spirits, or
a mixture of the two are added
to reduce tho varniwh to working
cunfiiMlency.
Different Grades and Purposes
Kvery sort of.aurfaco ha Ub
own uffinlty In the varnlah lino. A
vtunish that Is suitable fur furni
ture will not do for the floor,
which requires a very tough and
eluatic grade of varnish to protect
it ugaim t . rough usage. Ho when
you purchase a can of varnibh, be
mire to tdute the purpose for which
you Intend to use It.
Abide fioui ita value as a wood
finish, there are rnuny little tricks
with varnhdi which will mive mon
ey, lime mid labor. A coat of Var
nish un linoleum floors is u. greut
aid to the busy housewlre. If the
linoleum hus previously been
wuxed, the wux should be removed
witli benzine before the varnish b
applied, .
V&ralfchlng the wall paper In the
nuraery, or in any room frequented
by ehlldieu, Is always advisable. If
this is done when the wull paper Is
new, the murks of sticky little fin
gers are easily washed off. Wall
paper, however, should be varnished
only when It is firm and tight,
Varied Use
Closet shelves and the Insldes of
draweiT. so often neglected will
be much more sanitary if they are
given a coat of varnish. oors that
are hard lo close and drawers that
refuse to open are little nnnoyanece
that are bound to happen in every
Inusehold. If the edgeo are
smoothed down with sandpaper and
varnished over, the difficulty will
disappear.
The Ice box and the garbag can
may also come under tills treat
ment. Deads of. moisture often ac
cumulate on the outside of the ice
box. penetrate within and finally
cause warping. A coat of varnish
will prevent this condition ami give
the ice box a longer lease oi life.
The treatment of the garbage can
In us follows: Flist brush the in
side of the can with a solution
made by dissolving half a pound of
blue vitriol (copper sulphate) in a
gallon of water. Then wa-jh and
dry tho bucket and apply two coats
of nsplmltum varnh.h.
All of which goes to ihow that
there is scarcely a room in the
house where a knowledge of the
whys ami wherefores of varnish
will not work a lasting Netiefit.

THERE are endless plan combina
tions for five-room bungalows,
but there are two of them that are
used most commonly. One is wide,
having the bedrooms and bath along
the side. The other Is narrow, hav
ing the bedrooms at the rear. This
one is tho narrow type. For the
home builder whose lot Is nurrow,
but who must liuve five rooms at
the minimum of expense, this
house design No. 5-A-9 presents
inuit excellent possibilities.
Studying the plan it will be seen
that the living room and dining
room are of good sUe and arranged
in such a way, With a cased open

Want to Know
About Building
Questions addressed to this pa
per will be answered by the Archi
tects Small House Service Bureau
of the United States, Inc. Enclose
a stamped addressed envelope.
Q I wish to change my
basement into a garug.3, mak
ing it an odorless and fireproof
as possible. What ii the best
way to do this?
A You will have to consult your
local building depaitmcnt aa , to
what they will accept. Too cheap
est construction would be metal
lath hung away from the adjoining
wood and plastered with a heavy
coat of cement mortar. You may
be required to put in a concrete
slab overhead and side walls of
masonry with a fire door.
Q I have painted the outsldo
of my French doors many
times. It always peels off.
Would like to know the cause.
A You have probably painted on
wet woodwork. Take off all tho
old paint. If possible, remove the
doors, bring them into tho house
and get them dry. . ILet the first
coat be largely of linseed oil.
Allow as much time between coats
as possible. Put an three.
Q Please send Information
about Insulating walls. Will
this do away with the damp
ness that comes with spring
thawing times and rains?
A The single function of Insula
tion is to trup heat, to keep it out
of the house in the summer time,
keep it in in the winter. It will
not do away with duinpness ex
cepting that which comes from
condensation through cold walls.
Insulation should be ueed in ail
houses both ou walls und ceilings.
No house is modern without it.
Q I have a small house with
a good deal of attic space, but.
no stairway. We wi;;h to use
tlie attic for storage and wa ,
do not want to sacrifice the
space necessary for a btuirwuy.
How would yuu do it?
A Install a disappearine; stair
way. Vou can put this in any hall
way where there is approximately
six fttt in length oi ceiling space.
Q. A re there different
grades of shingles used on tide
walls of houses?
A. There are. The prade Is de
termined by the ruahly of the
wood, the way it is cut. Its thick
ness and length. Use only edge
grain stock as Icng and thick aa
you can afford.
Q Water leaks nreund the '
window citta. They are ail -veaiiier

seem-' to leait limit r Lome way, -and

A YouV windows aro manifestly
not properly flemed. If your build

the outside casings removed and
rooting material run around so
to cover the joint between the win
