He leaves the train a few stations down the litt€j returning in a car jSntering through a secret panel' in his house, Where Dnrcan in staying, after David' «7t'i Jnne leave, he makes his -tcay stealthily tip into the- house proper, unaware that. he. has been seen bj/ jtfo»> #an. • tiiHHken tramp, in the Statement. . •; ' jfow po os WITH TBX STORY Duncan was sleeping on his couch when Waldo entered the room. Sensing the presence of somebody. Duncan opened his eyes and looked up. He was startled ;to «ee Waldo standing there. "Bob-- 1 thought you'd left for the office." * "I forgot--I brought jftu- your present--" Duncan's face lit up as Waldo continued smoothly. "A day late--but .better late than never." « « i "Bob--how can I ever thank you! Where is it?" > K "I have It with me." Waldo •walked over to the door looking into the living room and locked it. Dundied of druprs supplied.to you by the" physician who. oddly enough, is sole heir to .your estate And only two* r people In the world know that he's your son--you and I You won't tell because you'll be dead--and I won t tell because I want to see Graham dead Under the Inheritance law a convicted murderer, loses all right„and title to the estateof the one he murders. And so-- when Graham is convicted >o* first * degree murder and executed by the state--as your next of kin I'll Inherit the estate and his bereaved ' youna; bride. I've figured it all out. you see like a chess game As I recall It. you Just dissolve the pellets and inject it." With the needle full, Waldo stood over • Duncan, who stared, almost . hypnotized., up at the figure of the, lawyer, who continued", "Don't cn?i out. John, or I shall be forced to . choke you. and I don't want to <&Q . that. I take pity on your suffer* f. ing and Tm going to give you the death for which you've grayed so; often." With h'.s left hirid. he gripped one of Duncan's arms. Tine dying man tried to squirm, but was so paralyzed he could not mm Slowly the needle was inserted into the fle^h. the plunger pushed in and the fatal fluid injected into the invalid's veins. "There--now you'll go to sleep." Waldo restored the needle to the open dratver of the taboret and sat down by the couch to watch the face of the dying man. He noticed a book of poems laying on the table. "You're fond of poetry. John. "I'll read to you." He opened tbe book and read. "Deep in the earth I rested now. Cool are <ts hands upon the brow. And soft its breast upon the head Of one who is so gladly dead. And all at once, and over all. The pitying rain began to fall--* He stopped and looked at the face of the dying man. and softly said. Waldo prepared the death potion ^ r lPosed bp Alan Dtnehart ant ChWtfet "tMtMtf «*n, stretched flat on the couch j •ould not see what he was doing. I 1 Just saw David and Jane leave | the house." He walked back to the «ouch and removed his overcoat which he draped over a chair. "In •lew of the fact that It's Malcolm's day off, I don't think It is very thoughtful of them to leave you alone like this." * "I told them to gro. I was resting nicely The citjt hall closes at ,flve. They went for a marriage license." He paused, perplexed by the steady stare of Waldo. ^ "I told you some months ago tfiat i 1 had a plan to recuperate my losses I in the stock market--do you r«r- ; member? And I promised that when i f was ready I'd tell you about it. i Well--I'm ready now. I'm going i to come into a fortune as large as i your own." W "I'm delighted to hear it. How are you going to do it?" i "I'll show you in a minute." Waldo went to the window and -pulled down the Venetian blinds. "Arid, by the way--Graham needn't have" gone, to town for a marriage license. He'll never marry Jane Chase." Duncan was aware of something evil and sinister behind the bland demeanor of Waldo, and he asked, "What are you rankling about?" „Waldo pulled down, the blind of the second window of the room as, Duncan continued, "Why won't he?" "I Shall marry her myself." Bob started back toward the couch. The room was in semi-darkness and Waldo switched on the lamp near the couch. Its ray fell on Duncan's face and gave ft weird, eerie light to the room. Slowly Morgan entered the study through the secret panel. He was shivering with fright, thoroughly sobered by what he had s^n. He stood undecided a moment, then walked on tip-toe to the door leading into the sick room, which was sHghtly ajar so that it enabled him to see all that was talcing place When he glued his face to the opentag. A canary chirped in its cage. "I turned down half your estate. John, because I intend to havet it all," Bob declared, unaware that any ears save Duncan's could hear. Waldo reached into the overcoat draped, on the chair, pulled out a pair of gloves and put them on. Then he took a package out of his coat pocket, opened it. laid a hypodermic needle, a bottle of liquid, and a small bottle containing some pellets on a taboret. Then, calmly, ^nd methodically, he opened the bottle of pellets and took out several of them. 1 didn't bring a clerk-with me to witness your will because I never intended to make the will pubHc after you were dead.1' His voice was perfectly casual, as though he were discussing commonplaces. "In that case, I would hav« Inherited your estate automatically, as your next of kin-jbecause nobody but you and I know about the will I took the trouble to type it myself for that reason.'* Duncan gasped. "Bob -- you're teking.' Nvaldo prepared the death potion. "But now l shall makes the will public It has occurred to me that Jt will come in handy." Duncan was livid with futile effort to move, to do something, but the paralysis chained him to the couch and Waldo continued. "Strange that you should die on the very day you signed year will. And alur the Htom it via mm o«at that jrmi "You're sleeping now--** He rose. "Pleasant dreams." - • v Morgan, in the living room, watched the entire scene He was J horrified. Waldo switched off the [ light beside the couch- walked over ; to the window, drew up the shades, so as to leave the room in the same condition as when he entered. Then he went over and unlocked the liv- ' ing room door, returned, picked up his hat and '•oat. took his brief case, paused for a last look at DYincan. ' and then went into the study arid' proceeded directly to the secret panel. In a corner of the study, Morgan slowly emerged from -behind a screen and stated at the closed panel through which Waldo had departed Duncan lie dead upon the couch. The still silence of death was pierced by the trill of the canary. who was unaware of what had occurred. / • As Waldo had predicted, David Graham was arrested for the mur- i der of John Duncan. An inquest ' revealed the poison. Waldo was engaged to defend the young docfor ! and entsred the ple^ that it was the ethics of the medical profession to mercifully end the life of a patient suffering intensely . and doomed to die of an incurable disease. o •- Jane believed that David -was innocent, and so did Waldo, in fact, he professed his knowledge of the lad's innocence to Jane. He even stated that he believed David would be acquitted. . The trial aroused the whole country. There were many who sympathized with the young doctor who mercifully put a patient out of his suffering. Clergymen denounced him. They made it subject for sermons. Bverything looked bad for DavJd. Duncan died on the day he signed his will giving his entire estate to the young physician. David and Jane got a license to wed the sam* day. MThe court room was crowded at every session; but every bit of evl- J dence was damaging to the defendant. In the summation, the District Attorney asked for the death verdict, while Waldo made an eloquent plea, "Ladies and gentlemen of the jury: I have never been connected with a case on which the facts point so clearly, so eloquently, to the innocence of a defendant. The State has made much over who supplied the drugs by which Duncan met his death. It is obviously a point of no importance. Whether or not Dr. Graham supplied those drugs--whether he did it accidentally or deliberately--doesn't matter. The thing that matters Is this: It has been definitely and conclusively proved that Duncan was suffering from an incurable ailment; that he looked upon death as a blessed and only relief; and that he took his own life to end the pain-tortured waiting that was worse than death Itself." Following the summation, the Judge charged the jury. It left the box and went out to deliberate. Jane and David were uneasy. What would the twelve Just citizens decide? Minutes dragged like hours. It. seemed like eternity since ths persons who held his life in their hands had left the courtroom. It seemed as though they would nsrsr return. Then the door opened. A tired, haggard faced Jury filed In. Each stood ta front of his chair.

Improves Win* to treated wiyi plaster of parts to Improve tbe color and keeping qualities. The Fable of the Go-Getting Smarty By GEORGE ADE <©. Bell Syndicate.)--WNU Servloa. ONCE there lived in the West era Hemisphere a Citizen who was easy to get along „wlth If you wottld let „hiro have his Way, take Orders from him and not sa»ss back. There was no tarnation Sense in any one having' an Argument with this Bird, because he was always Right. It almost stupefied him if some Upstart, with a Disposition like a Mule, suggested - to htm that possibly he was not One Hundred Per Cent Infallible. Yes, he was one of those chesty ttd who aire apt to get Results In a World largely peopled with Procrastinators, Hesitafors, Doubters and Back-Pedal era, but he would have been an Awful Thing to rootn with. Imagine being all the Time with one who tells you when to Bathe, how many Towels to use, what to order foir Lunch, how many Studs to wear With the Bob-Tall, on which Side to pert the I<oeks and vfehat Books to C«n before turning' out the Light. Also keen enough under the Hat to win eiery Battle If any orfe finds Fault with a single Item in his Program. At no time endeavoring to conceal the Fact that he Is a Superman, gen era ting his own Aureole of Superiority. Even as a„ Lad, in the weather beaten School House arid on the Village Common, he was Czar and Dictator. He appointed himself such and biln- Ished to Outer Darkness all those who questioned his Rule. . Every Da.v the ^own-trodden Worms would gejt together and mumble a lot of Threats and organize a Mutiny, but when It came time for the Uprising there never was a Leader who dared to meet Julius In the Arena. If ever Imperial Caesar looked down from the Battlements, he must have been proud of his Namesake. We are said to he Free and Equal, ft would be hard to say which half of the foregoing Joke Is entitled to the louder Laugh. H« Has a Thrdugh Ticket. When you discover in a Grammar School * a square-jawed Lad with Steely Eyes, of Whom the Teacher stands in Awe, look out for him. It simply means that he has a Through Ticket for the Stock Exchange, the tJ. S. Senate or the Callows. Even as a Squirrel cannot be kept on the Ground, so it Is impossible to keep ai}y Napoleon in a Side Pocket. When he appeared on the Campus of that undersized but ambitious Institution of Learning known as Oobie College and began to Swank all over the Place, the • infuriated Undergraduates called a Secret Meeting and ;*bted that nothing would cure him except a Dip in the Horse-Tank. So he called the Freshmen together and told them just what he expected from them "in the way of Co- Operation. He said that if they would obey Orders, the Class of Umpty-Ump Would be the brightest Jewel in the Diadem of dear old Coble. So they elected him Class President and he told them what the Colors and the Yell would be and they all went mooching back to their Rooms to whisper among themselves and declare- that they wouldn't stand for it : They were in a State of Revolt except when In the Immediate Presence of his hypnotic Personality and then the Complex of Inferiority got a Strangle Hold on the Ego and they knew that Gnats could not argue with an Eagle. When he finally picked out a i^ood Eugenic Specimen of fourplus Pulchritude and decide to permit her to be the Mother of his Children, he did not propose at all. He patted her On the shoulder andstold her to brace lierself and not give wajr to Joyful Emotions, even though she was about to be the recipient of Good News. In putting her Wise to the Fact that she had drawn the Capital Prize he impersonated the King who pauses on the Highway to hegtow a Coin on a^ barefooted Peasant Girl. Irene had vowed that before she signed up he would have to unstarch himself and get down on his knees and talk purty, but when the Big Moment came she was Just as cool and defiant as a small Bird In -the presence of a large and energetic Snake. r He somehow had the mesmeric Power to convince Folks that any one who didn't fall in with his Suggestions was guilty of Lese Majesti«\ Contempt of Court and Moral Delinquency. Had to Wlps His Faet Julius went into the Practice of Law and the first Client who walked Into his Office had to wipe his feet on the Mat and dig up a Retaining Fee. He had the Option of doing that or going somewhere else and hiring a second-class Dub. How the other Attorneys hated Julius! Why? Because, when they opened up on him with all their Heavy Artillery, Bombs and Shrapnel, he would be reading a Letter and not aware that Opposing Counsel were present The most they ever got out of him was a Smile indicative more of Pity than of Anger. After they had hoi lered themselves hoarse and supplicated the Court and massaged the Jury, then Julius would arise and explain What was What in language which was feebly Imitated some time ago by William Shakespeare, Lord Macaulay and Daniel Webster. And. somehow, before he got through, all of the Listeners would be convinced that they wfere listening to the Chief Justice. The Average Lawyer cannot tell you, definitely, his Wife's First Name until after he has, gone to the Office and looked at a couple of Books. Julius knew what the Authorities had to' say before they said it, The Barristers with defective Ignition and no Srfr-Starters found it hard going when they tried to regulate the activities of a bounding Intellectual Gazelle whose Intuition was about Three Weeks in Advance of their carefully figured-out Dope. Julius shoqe with especial Luster when he had a Board of Directors eating frorii the Hand. He was the kind of Legal Adviser who always felt that he could get a better Line on the Workings of the Company which em ployed him if he owned quite a Block of the Stock. And no matter what they slipped him. It Was always with the Understanding that they were" mighty lucky to secure the Services of the ne plus ultra Crackerjack !.of the Twentieth Century, , Julius rode down the Aripinn' Way' in a* Golden OhRriot drawn by 24 White Worses while all Of the Chair- Warmers and Checker Players anil Culls and Misfits and.Dumb Bella said It was a Crime the way he was get ting tfce Breaks, which he was. You surround Mount Everest with Ant Hills and Mount Everest Is going to be lonesome. No one can be chummy with a lot qf Pigmies who are only Knee high. Julius had a Host of envious Admirers but very few Pais and those who wfere his Close Friends needed only Blue Suits, Short Pencils and Freckles to make them regular Messenger Boys. Astronomy teaches that Satellites may revolve around Planets, but never Vice Versa. Julius- was always the incomparable It without making any apparent Effort to overshadow his Environment He took the Center of "the Stage hecause the Minor Actors hacked away at his regal Approach and tried to bide behind the Scenery. Functioned at Top Speed. Inasmuch as all normal Adults are missing on most of the Cylinders, it was no Miracle that one who func tloned. at Top Speed and was absolutely minus all Doubts and Fears should become a leader by Common Consent, and then be privately hated by all of the Second-Raters. One of our prize Delusions Is that men who acquire extreme Unpopular .ity are seldom successful and happy. To get the Cold Facts play the Reverse English. The handshaking Greeters who achieve Popularity are often elected to Office, with the Result that they are neither happy nor: financially prosperous. 'They get their. Pictures In the Papers and finally are burled by Popular Subscription. One of the real Satisfactions which followed Julius through his Meteoric Career arose from the Knowledge that he was thoroughly detested because of his Wealth, his Wrfrdrobe, his Town House, his Fleet of Motor Cars, his suite of Offices, his princely Income and his Magnetic Control of all surrounding Circumstances. He could hear the Buzz of the De- . tractors< below hut he never saw the Knockers, because he always wore his Head tilted bfLck and was giving a correct Imitation of AJex defying the Lightning. It would have broken his Heart if the perspiring Commoners had ever hailed him as an Equal. He wanted to be in the Ether while they were crawling in the Mud. and the fullest Vindication of his Career was that no one ever asked him to be a Candidate for Anything. He had no Time to hold Office. He was too busy telling the Office-Holders what to do. It is said that the Funeral Procession was over a Mile long, with 240 Cars, and In every Car at least four happy Mourners who were swapping. Stories about Julius and his superlative Egotism and ofTe«nslvp Eccentric!-. ' ties. - -- .-- - The lofty Monument for which he provided in his Will, knowing that the Beloved Ones could not be trusted, IS 80 feet high and is visible by many Sight-Seers who stand around and recall that, even though he was ornery and stuck' up. he hatted 1,000. never was caught on Bases and hadn't a single Error marked up against him. No wonder the Hatreds survive. There are all sort of Guesses as to what became of him. Some think he is the Grfttl-Casazza of the Heavenly Choir and others feel sure that he Is President of a Heating Plant Wherever he is, he has a Swivel Chair and a big Desk with Flowers on it MORAL--The easiest Thing In the World to get and the hardest to cash on Ift Three Hearty Cheers.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCHES "Love" was the subject of the Lesson-Sermon In all Churches of Christ Scientist on Sunday, Janu- ' ary 29. The Golden Text was. "Beloved, let us love one another: for love 1s of God: and every one that loveth to born of God, and knoweth God" (I John 4:7). • Among the citations which comprised the Lesson-Sermon was tbe following from the1 Bible: "The Lord huth api*>arod of old unto me, say- ;. ing*. Yea. 1 have loved thee with an \ everlasting love: therefore with loringkindtiess have I drawn thee" (Jeremiah 31:3). The Lesson-Sermon also Included the following passages from the Christian Sc.ence textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy: "That God is a corporeal being, nobody can truly affirm. . . . Not materially hut spiritually we know Him as divine Mind, as Life. Truth, and Love. We shall obey and adore in " proportion as we apprehend the di- , *ine nature and love Him under- Standingly, warring no more over the corporeality, but rejoicing la the affluence'of our God" (p. 140).

Dedicated "To His Sacred Majesty Charles II," the book blamed "brewers, dlers, lime burners, salt and sope boylers" for the trouble, and advocated that the trades which caused the nuisance be removed Are or six miles out of the city.
