"Hi llo, Walter." Vi •« -ria called, and the ma; and w:fe broke apart. "Well, vo sa: Walter. He al ways reserved a humorous smile for Vii k.v. as though they had both at sometime agreed that there was son tl rig \ iguely funny about a woman who wrote for a tiling They shook hands. Victoria knew that Walter was pr< bably quite aware that the situat; -n which ha 1 sent him sway from his home was no secret to her, and that this em bairassed him greatly. He stood a little in front of the pigskin bag he had set down as though hoping to conceal the fact that his absence had been an unusual one. Bernice's arm was twined through her husl at : She was : . icing ut most adoringly at his profile. "Doesn't Walter look darling with a tar.?" she asked. Hideously at a loss for an an swer. Victoria was gla 1 when Wal ter broke almost brusquely from his wife's grasp to take off his overcoat, "rfcaicely 'darling’.’' he said in his careful, lawyer's voice. “Nice to set you again, Walter," Victoria told him, and turned an ! went to the door. Bernice turned her head to say: "I'll ring up to morrow, Vicky. Don't worry about anything. Everything will be all right." “I'm sure it will,” said Victoria. She was not referring to her own problem. As she shut the heavy door, she could not help looking back through the glass triangle. Walter was putting his coat away In the hall closet, settling it very precisely on a hanger. Bernice was watching him intently. As he turned toward her, shutting the closet door in the same motion, she went toward him. holding out her hands. He took them in his and they stood there facing each other for a moment. By lowering her chin, Bernice con trived to be looking up at him Vic toria knew well the girlish, bright look that must lie in her brown eyes. Ar Victoria went down the ce ment walk towarJ her car, she heard the high fronds of the palm treea whispering sibilantly far above her head. She waa suddenly full of that troubling sense of a . : ,«s between Bernice and some ■ :;e iwhich had come first when she saw Bernice gliding down the s': ,r. ise of her husband's house, r hand caressing the banister, m ! wl : h ha 1 e Iged into her con sc: ■usr.ess - again when Bernice watched Walter’s back while he hung his coat away. Bernice had reminded her, in tin sc two actions, those two in stants, of Ina Hart. Win -h was ridiculous, because no tv.-i i eoj'le could be more unlike. Vvt. ria at once qualified that, i he t vi v : len did have one thing :n con n on. Tio v had been trained to r< card men as creatures whose primary function was to provide them with what they wanted But Bernice, Victoria reflected with a rattier grim smile as she slipped in under the steering wheel, had not killed Waiter, which had been Ina's method of removing one corner from an equally dangerous triangle. * * • Tuck hung up the receiver thoughtfully. What Mrs. Hime had just told him changed everything. That was ins first thought. Then he paused to qui< stion its validity. How? Well, first and foremost, since the poison had been in the green kitchen canister after all, H met omul have made the mistake which Mrs Hime had a Ivanced as ex; lanation of Albert Hime's death. Hazel Bennett lived in a small an i scrupul' v.-’y neat furnished apartment with a canary and three fan-t i gol fish She seemed al most vigor to tell Tuck of -he part she had played in tHo destruction if th< | is n When he said grave ly: "V i n :st realize that the de struction of evidence is a crime, punishable by law." some of the brightness f.: led from her face, I top pc ! by now carefully waved hair which ha ! been given an injudicious bluish rinse. Her face was one of those s ft. malleable looking ones. Some 50 years of life had marked it, but not deeply. She said, in a crumpled voice In ; which there was some fear: “But I didn't think of it as a crime when | I did it, Mr. Tuck!" as though that statement exonerated her, and against such feminine logic Tuck had long ago learned not to do bat tle. She added: 'And anyway, it wasn't my idea!” “But you were thinking of the mistake you made with the salt a month ago, weren’t you? When Mrs. Saxo convinced you that the police always wanted a quick ar rest, you remembered that mistake you'd made before, and you were afraid of yourself.” Hazel's soft face stretched Into a look of astonishment. "I never even thought of it!" she said. ! “It was you who filled the sliver | sugar bowl that was used on the. dinner table,” said Tuck. “Yes 1 filled It Just before I left on Wednesday night.” . “And you realized that since you'd made one mistake, with the salt, you might at acused of having made another, with the ant pow der.” Hazel sat up straightcr. "I never did!” "You could have made just tint mistake, though.” "No!” "How can you he so sure? An accident is a slip; it happens un consciously. The mind can't he pos itive about it.” Hazel was eager once more. "But I couldn't have! Don't, you see! I'd reached for the wrong can just a little while ago. You don't make the same mistake twice, so close together. The first mistake keeps you on your toes! Like there's a place out front on the pavement where the roots of a tree make the sidewalk stick up in a crack. 1 fell over that place a couple of months ago. Now I watch for it! 1 walk around it!” Tuck had to concede the validity of Hazel's psychology for ail the simplicity with which she worded her idea. Site went on hurriedly, as though by talking she could keep him from further unpleasant suggestions. "When I first got those canisters about a year ago I thought: 'You'll be getting them all mixed up if you don't watch your labels.' Such a silly thing, really, to make them all the same size. Anyone knows you don't need nearly as big a can for tea as you do for flour. Most of those sets are in different sizes, go ing from a little tiny or.e for pep per up to a great I lg one f r flour, because that's bulkiest. But be cause of the war I had to take what 1 cold ! get, when I bought them. 1 was i . ky to get the se. I remember 1 said to the hardware man: 'A man n. ule those. And he's nev< r hi en insi if a kit< hen’." Tuck took advantage cf a pause for breath to s.iv: "You are willing, then, to swear under oa'.h to the fact that you couldn't possibly have put ant powder into the sugar bowl, iiitead of sugar?” Tlie words "swear under oath” seemed to have a sobering effect on Hazel. She regarded Tuck out of her pale eyes behind the thick lenses of her glasses. Then: "I'll swear to it.” Tuck stood up. At the door he turned to look down at her. "Di in't you realize that if you destroyed tiie ant poison in the kitchen there was still the ant poison Ln Mrs. Hime's cupboard?” "In her cupboard ?” “In that shallow closet In her den.” “But I didn’t know about that! I never laid eyes on it!" He opened the door, and turned to ask: "Could Mrs. Saxe have seen It?” “Mrs. Saxe? I suppose she could have. She was in and out a lot. and Victoria leaves doors and drawers open." Then Hazel’s face bright ened. “No! She couldn't have! Be cause If she'd known about the poi son ln the den, she’d have wanted to get rid of that, too!” (To Be Continued) RADIO BEAMS WILL REPLACE MAIN TELEGRAPH LINES BETWEEN CITIES
