Today's Short Story
A Message In Blood
THE detective bus many curious rid
dles to solve. One of the most
remarkable that evor came up
for my solution was connected with
tbe case of a man named Joel (Chip
per, lie lived alone and was murder
1 one night during a bllxutrd. The
murderer left him for doud, but he
did uot die for some time aftur the
blow was struck.
Klapper was used to reading at night
In bed beforo going to sleep and kept
on a stand besldo bis bed a lamp,
matches and soma books. When tho
body was tllacuvored In tho morning
the lump was burning, though the oil
was nearly exhausted. People who had
jjussed the house between 11 und 12
reported that they had seen no light,
but a niuu who hud passed Just before
dawn on his way to a train declared
that he hud noticed a light In Klnp
per's room.
I framed several theories, more or
less Influenced by this circumstance.
Klapper was surely In bed with the
.light out when the murder was com
mitted. How then could It have been
burning In the morning unless he had
lived long enough after the blow to
light It? I had i feeling that the lamp
had been lighted by the victim with a
.purpose after he hnd been struck.
. 1 looked for a communication on pa
per, but found none. I was absently
turning over tho leu von of one of the
books on the table when I came to a
red smudge. It covered tbe word
"ten." It at once occurred to me that
Klapper had communicated something
concerning the murder by words
roudged by his own blood, and I Inok

(He) took ton now crisp Ave dollar bills,
all of the Tenth National.
Since tho hank might have been the
Fifth or the Tenth National, I weut to
both and learned at tho Tenth that It
hud paid out sonio new Ovo dollar bills
the day before, and Mr. Klnppor's ac
count showed he hnd been paid $.",0
the same day.
I at once advertised to give a pre
mium to any one who could furnish
me with one of theso bills. A woman.
tho cashier of a third rate restaurant
answered tho advertisement, bringing
ono of the bills. The woman told me
Hint tho man who gave It to her was
so rough looking that she feared It was
counterfeit and took It to her employer

He was tried and convicted. After

exceedingly appropriate.
GYRATIONS OF FASHION. !
If you don't know how to make the
little satin roses which are seen every

color.

In the shops. Tbey are simply made,

GARNISHING WARM

Summer garnishes should al
ways be fresh, crisp and' dainty.
Watercress, fresh parsley, let
tuce heart leuves, cupers nnd
small radishes, crisp and cold,
all form appropriate nnd appe
tizing garnishes for ment ttsb
and vegetable dishes.
Another way of garnishing Is
by combining two dishes. For
Instance, If hashed brown potn- ',
toes are to be served with a
hash of lamb and peppers, place I
the meat basb In the center of
the dish and arrange the pota- I
toes neatly about It Creamed '
