While the family is Walting: phone that Hen~y Rand is d cheap hotel. He is found in a a room, & welt on the back of his head. The only clews are a woman's hand- kerchief pl the stub of a yallow the- atre ticket. Jimmy and Detective Mooney go to Buffalo, where the the- atre is located, and "learn that the ticket is a permanen® reservation for Fogarty. The lay plans to trap Fogarty. Jimmy, coming from church, sees two men in an automobile following a girl. They try to "pick her tp" and she looks appealingly at Jimmy, who hits one of the nen in the mouth. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER VIII The man went down in a heap under the impact of Jimmys. fist, bumping into hi advancing compan- ion as he fell. He clapped his hand to his mouth and brought it away red- dened with blood. His tri little mus- tache was a trifle awry as he twisted his mouth to spit. lice Jimmy stood menacingly, waiting | for the other one, It was quite evi- dent that he had only one to deal with now. The man on the pavemert seem- ed to have had all the fight knocked out of "im, The man who had been driving darted a swift glance at Jimmy and then at his fallen companion. If he had been drunk, he was suddenly sober again. He dropped his fists to his sides and bent over Jimmy's victim, helping him to his feet. Then he half dragged him into the automobile, took his seat behind the wheel and drove off, Jimmy had quite forgotten the girl. When he turned and found her behind him he half started in surpris» "I--I beg your pardon," he stam- mered, removing his hat. He remem- bered now that he had spoken to her |. as if she were an old friend, and has- tened to explain why. "I understood as soon as you spoke. It was quite fine of y I--I thank you." She looked at--him, straight into his eyes, and held out her hand. So many girls, he though', would have been all nervous and aflutter, perhaps crying. He had never before filled the role oi th» gallant knight dashing to a lady's rescue. The thought that he had been playing a story-book role amused him, and he smiled, half to himself, as he put out his hand to take hers, He sow his knuckles war: bloody and hastily withdrew it and took her proffered hand 'n his left. His action, however, did not escape her. "You've hurt your hand!" she cried, There was concern in her voice. Jimmy fished his handkerchief out of his coat pocket and applied it to o the injured knuckles. One of them was bleeding quite freely; it had land- ed on his opponent's teeth. "It's nothing," he said. "Didn't even know it was there," He wrap- ped the handkerchief around hig hand and stuck it in his pocket. "You're not telling the truth," she accused. "I'm po sorry to have caused you this trouble." "No trouble at all." Jimmy was fidgety and embarrassed. He realized how awkward he must look with one hand in his pocket and the other hold- ing his hat. He clamped the hat on his head. "Perhaps," he offered, "you'd better let me see you home." "This sort of thing has never hap- pened to me before." She smiled. "I'm quite sure it isn't likely to hap- pen twice in one evening. Besides, I've only a few blocks to walk." "I'm sorry for that," he commented. She glancéd at him, puzzled. "I'm sorry," he explained, "that we've only a few blocks to walk." She laughed. "Very well, Mr. Gala- had--or shall I call you Sir Launcelot --I've a good mind to lead you home by the longest way." "My name," he added, "is neither { Galahad nor Launcelot, but Rand-- James Rand. Strange as it may seem, my friends call me Jimmy." "And mine," she countered, "is neither Guinevere nor Elaine, but Lowell--Mary Lowell. My friends call me Mary, but not on such short notice as this." "Score one for the Lowells," he said. "Mr,~"Rand can pick up his marbles and go home." For the first time in days the old light-hearted mood was back upon him. The conversation stimulated him. He was able to for- get. "Seriously, Mr. Rand," she was say- ing, "it was a mighty fine thing for you to do. 1 don't know what would have happened if you hadnt come, along just when you did." "for the headache. "he iy ended, "if it isn't serious." She laughed. "Good night. 1 only wish 1 could Topas 4 the favor. I'm dreadfully sorsy about your hand." | "About the biggest Tver 1 could get right about now," said Jimmy, "would be a job "You--you mean 'you're looking for work?" "Well, I am ind I'm not. 1 hope 1 don't have to." He stopped. "Gosh, that sounds like Greek, doesn't it? I mean that if I stay long in Buffalo-- and 1 hope 1 don't have to--T'll have to find a job. We must eat, you know." "Well, perhaps 1 can repay the fa- vor, after all,* she said. "That is, if you're really serious. I'm secretary to the chief clerk of the Q. and R. Rail- road. I'll speak to him about you. The office is downtown. You'll find the address in the directory." 4 "Thank you, Miss Lowell. I may drop in. This is rather unexpected, to be steered into a job by a young lady." "What else could a lady do when she has been rescued?" she countered. "Good night, Mr. Rand." She took Lis hand--and he thrilled at the little squeeze she imparted to the grip. - * LJ Detective Mooney drained his coffee cup and lighted a large cigar. "We'll sit behind Mr. Fogarty," he remarked comfortably, "and when the show's over we'll spring a little surprise party on him. By 'be way"--he star- ed at Jimmy's hand--"what's the mat- ter with your fist?" Jimmy rubbed his damaged knuck- les, which were covered with squares of court plaster, and smiled. "An- other littie surprise party, Mooney." He told about the adventure of the night before. The little detective surveyed him shrewdly. "I'd like to see the other fellow." He swore softly. "Rand, don't you go hitting me, I don't like the looks of them shoulders of yours . Regular Romeo, aren't you? What was the lady like?" "She was wonderful!" exclaimed Jimmy, and stopped short. His face was red to the roots of his hair. "Oh, well," he added hastily, "let's forget it." Mooney gazed at Lim thoughtfully and said nothing. "All right, Rand," he said, be getting in the theatre." They had not long to wait. A few minutes before the curtain rose Mooney suddenly poked Jimmy sharp- ly in the ribs. "Fogarty!" he whis- pered. Jimmy surveyed intently the man who was taking his seat just in front of them--a burly man of perhaps 220 pounds, large-faced, heavy of jowl, with deep-set eyes beneath bushy eye- brows. His hair, of dull sandy color, wag sparse on top with a large bald t on the crown. It was trimmed at the sides. He stood up to take off his light- weight topcoat, and Jimmy saw the flash of a large diamond on the little finger of his left hand. He waved to several persons in the orchestra Meats and settled heavily in his chair, Jimmy felt alternately hot and cold. This man before him--what secret did he hold locked in that fat throat of his? The murder of Jimmy's father? All through the play Jimmy watch- ed him--even stood close to him in the smoking room between acts. Beside him Detective Mooney's face was a mask--stulying, thinking, . . . The curtain fell. Fogarty got up stiffly and clamped on his hat, strug- gling meanwhile into his coat. Jimmy felt the pressure of Mooney's hand on his arm. Stick close, Rand, we're goin' with him." Fogarty did not loiter, He struck up a swift pace, surprising in one of his weight, that brought him in a few minutes to the Mayfair Hotel. Mooney and Jimmy were close behind him when he entered. In the lobby he paused to greet the girl behind the cigar counter, who smiled wordlessly at his remarks and turned quickly to another customer. He stopped at the bell captain's desk, and Jimmy heard the words, "Gingar ale and cracked ice." Then he got into the elevator. Jimmy would have followed him had not Mooney held him back. "We'll take the next one," he whispered, Jimmy's heart was poundi a they got off at the fourth floor and walked along the hall. In front of Room 407 Mooney stopped. "Just sit tight, Rand," he caution- ed, "and leave this to me. Let me do the talkin."

Five minutes later he dashed back again, "That cigar," he shouted angrily, "It's simply awful." The tobacconist remained calm.

Tout no fOF Be Careful of Target Warning to Hunters "Take the hunch ont of hunting the guess out of gunning never shooting at movement or. sound," Car- los Avery, president of the American Game Protective Assoclation, says in urging hunters to co-operate with game officials and conservation groups who have recently inaugurated educa- tional campaigns to stop the needless killing and wounding of many persons every year, "Wind-blown 'tree limbs or bushes and movements of fellow hunters or live stock near by often cause optical fllusions for the unwary," Mr. Avery says. "With the 1930 hunting season for many game and animal species about to open, every hunter can do his part to stop the loss of human life. "The careful hunter always holds the muzzle of a leaded gun down or in such an upright position over his shoulder when walking that his com- rades will not be hit if the gun' 'goes off accidentally. Many old-timers al- ways unload during rest periods apd before they get into camp at night. ever alm at any one--you never can tell what might happen! When hunt- ing, always be sure you see the game." idl RAL Swimmers Take Chances While there can be no question that everybody would be the better for knowing how to swim, it is not impos- sible that statistics would show more drowning accidents among swimmers than non-swimmers. Often an ability to swim prompts men to take risks that the non-swimmer is not exposed to. The ability to swim and the habit of being sensible combine to prevent fatalities in the water. ---------------- For Blisters -- Minard's Liniment. rr fp Miss Curlington aproached a famous horticulturist gushingly.

The. man of to- Ww, 4 Jr told, may | have the power not of fashioning | the race, but of its destiny" and purpose in life, i To this vista of Ban 'progress the: biologists at the Long Island labora. tory are making contributions with a series of experiments of far-reaching: import. A team of four scientists has. already discovered a new hormone or extract of internal glands whieh, it is 'hoped, will promote pre-natal health. and play an fmportant part in the well- being of the mother. Besides its tests with the newly dis- covered hormone, the Long Island la- boratory is conducting research in at least four other vital fields which may eventually yield results of even great- er value to mankind. A possible clue to the mystery of lite and death is seén in the study be- ing made by Dr, W. W, Swingle and Dr, J, J. Pfiffner whose research has already Indicated that it is possible to obtain an active extract from the adrenal gland which will maintain life- with the gland removed. The scient- ists have been working for more than seven years to discover which organ or bodily function depends on this: gland for the maintenance of life. "We have succeeded already in ob-- taining a water-soluble extract of the: adrenal cortex that is effective in re storing full vigor and health within am hour of expected death in tests with. certain animals," Dr. Swingle explain-- ed. "Cats which were about to sink: into the final coma quickly regained! full muscular activity when treated with the extract and shorily afterward got back their appetites. They ate: heartily, gained weight rapidly and lived the normal life of cats which had not been deprived of their adrenal! glands. "Thus we have been able to prevent death and 'permit the cats tc live nor- mal lives without this highly essen- tial gland. However, we are still with- out knowledge of how the gland func- tions." X-Ray Explanation Sought Under the leadership of Dr, Hugo: Fricke, formerly director of the De- partment of Bio-Physics of the Cleve- land Clinic, the Biological Laboratery has undertaken two unusual studies with the aim of finding solutions to: two vital riddles. The first, a research in biophysics, a new branch of science, has as its purpose the discov- ery of the chemical change that takes: place in tissues as a result of éxpos- ure to treatment by X-rays. This, if successful, would give us for the first time -the answer to the questions: Just what is the X-ray? What are its: properties? How does it work? Almost continually there takes place: in the cells of the body some form of electrical transformation, and any ac-: curate information that can be attain- ed regarding the life of cells with re- spect ta electricity is certain to be of' unusual importance, Practically noth- ing is known about this subject as yet, but the bio-physical laboratory at Cold 'Springs Harbor is searching, for the facts. 5 2 Dr. William Salant i¥ conducting: still another research whick he hopes: will reveal the effect of diet and other factors in modifying the action of drugs. A number of things such as. the composition of blood, influence and: regulate the effect of drugs to a mark- ed degree. Dr. Salant's work is con- cerned with some of those regulating factors, such as the amount of calcium in the blood and in the diet. Since different persons are affected differ- ently by drugs, for reasons of physical '| condition and environment, Dr, Salant hopes that his study, if it succeeds, will enable medicine to work on a sounder basis in the ministration of drugs. t hn Worth Trying : Copenhagen.--A Danish gardener has found that vegetable marrows, so. relished in England and on the Conti nent, will climb as well as 'creep, over: a trellis of fairly large mesh netting. placed close to a wall or fence, at an: is Sroing of a superloE Bian ; pet ws 'and a.
