ONLY THE THRIFTY NEED READ THIS All!

To make room for Summer Furniture and for mu-ulture of quite modern design we are required to clear part of our sales floors-we were of course going to send the surplus articles to our warehouse. but re- membering that we suffered severe damage last year we are convinced that the best thing to do is to offer some articles at rare bargain prices.

So if you are interested in obtaining good furniture at specially low prices, come to our store on MONDAY, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY or THURSDAY of this week. You will be offered-

A.-A choice of 10 (ten) Chesterfield Suites-3-piece; 2-piece suites and a. few sectional sulto'

B-A choice of 12 (twelve) Baby Prams-in all colors -and at ridiculously low prices.

c..A choice from 15 (fifteen) Carpets, both Wilton and Axminster quality. in all sizes-patterns with border or tone-on-tone broadloom.

ll-A choice from 12 (twelve) Beds, both wooden and metal-in all sizes and ranging from full panel down to plain types.

E-As a special attraction we have 25 (twenty-five) sets only of Dinner Dishes-all British made-and in two lovely patterns with 68 pieces in each (a complete set for eight places). The price on these wiil he 5325.00 per set.

At time of writing this is all we dare offer- liowever it may be that even more space will be re- quired and if so the bargains will be shown on the sales floors.

IT COSTS NOTHING TO LOOK-AND YOU ARE ALWAYS WELCOME AT

Murder could lie! Kill

so it was that when Laurette Dexter had disclosed that her on- gagenisnt. to Peter Leasing was at an end, Barbara had glimpsed again the happiness she feared she had for ever lost.

Then on Sunday afternoon came disliiusion. There arrived a bundle of the day's newspapers containing reports of Gideon Trevor's death. She had almost fainted under the shock. Her house of cards. In re- cently erected. collapsed in a heap. She could not fall to see how perilously this fresh development affected her. In vain she tried to dislodge from her mind the con- viction that Trevor must have met his death at Peter Lessing's hands. or at the hands of someone act- ing under his orders. Somehow or other, Trevor's intention to warn Robin Foster, a.iid it seemed in- evitably to follow that if he knew of Trevor's attempted treachery he also knew of her own; and his knowledge must, of necessity. dras-

, ticaily affect the relationship be-

tween them.

Fear umwheimed her. Leasing she knew to be ruthless, implac- able; a man who would revenge himself terribly upon anyone who opposed his plans. Her gathering mental agony im-pelled her to des- perate measures. Whatever the consequences, it was impossible for her to delay seeing him.

That decision made, she motored back to London.

When Peter Lessing entered the small morning room at the back of the house into which she had been shown, his face was stern and cruel. She affected not to notice his expression, but hurried across the room to greet him. As he stood with the door closed behind him, his fingers still on the handle, she twined her arms caressingly round his neck.

”Peter," she said softly. and kiss- ed him affectionately.

He made no attempt to return licr i!l'0Cl.lili2. but. disengaging her arms. wnllzcd lorivnrd. brushing her aside. His sinister coldness daunteii iicr.

"Petr-r." she repented in a whis- per of appeal.

lie made no answer as he walked to the fireplace mid stood there. "Whats brought you up?" he da- manded.

"Gideon Trevor. You know " '

"How did you hear?" ”The Sunday papers." still in deliberate tone! he said to her:

"Well, you see. that's what hap- pens anybody who crosses me." "Peter! Then-oh, hea.vensi.." In her eyes there was horror. but even more plainly there showed fear, not for herself but for this man she loved. He read her look correctly. .

"Oh, don't lose any sleep over me." he remarked callously. "I'm quite safe. I've seen to that all right."

"Why did you do it?”

"You need hardly ask." Then he threw the question at her sharp- ly. "What did you say in that note you gave Trevor last night?"

It has come! she drew herself erect and faced him bravely. Bar- bara van Buren lacked nothing in courage.

"I told him to warn Robin ha- ter." she said.

"As I thought." Again his words come slowly. "Why did you do that?"

"I'm having no hand in muivisr, even for you. Peter."

His eyes narrowed. "What hap- pened last night? It seems I was too late to stop the message you went out of your way to tell him to send. And I thought I had him in time. Well, thereis I debt still gnlpaid, and I intend to be paid in MI...

SBIW, you

For a. moment stark panic seized her. Her courage left her. Involun- tnrily she shrank away from him.

"You were not too late.” she said. "Robin Foster received no message to make him alter his or- rnngements. Because your plans have failed. neither poor Gideon Trevor nor myself is to blame. If you want the culprit"-she spoke almost triumphantly-"you can lay the blame on Laurette Dexter. She dished you."

"What on earth do you mean?" "let me tell you what happened last night. I know all about it. Robin Foster came to see me after he had been attacked." She told him the outcome.

with set teeth and his normally studiousiy impassive face tritching in fury and hatred, he listened to her story. when she had finished and stood waiting for him to speak he turned away from the fireplace and put his foreginger- and thiurnl into his waistcoat pocket. For a time he stood motionless in this at- titude, staring vacantly at a picture on the opposite wall, and then with a sudden gesture of disgust drew from the pocket is massive solitaire diamond ring. I-le pitched it on to the green cloth of a centre table in front of him. "so that's the ex- planation of this," he said.

He looked at the perfect jewel as it glitter-ed against the darkness of the cloth and sneered. "A mes- sensor brought that little present for me this morning. My ring-rs- turned ..... .." He paused. his eyes fixed on the jewel, then: "What was she doing down there?" he burst out suddenly. "Did you get to know that too?!
