“HOLDUP”
•Stealthily, the red-head made
hi* way over the coal until hecould see down into the engine
cab. Two masked men had
backed the fireman and engin
eer into the window seat at the
point of menacing guns. The
red-head’s action was quick.
He slid down the heaped coal,
both guns roaring. One manpitched his length on the floor
plates and the other made awild crippled dash for the
<round. The red-head heard him
crawl, unleasing a string of bitter oaths... Suddenly the night
around them came alive with
• shots, winking orange in the
darkness.
“Genflfoin1!” the red-head
commanded briefly to the en
gineer.
There was a running fire as
the train labored into motion.
Glass tinkled to the floor. Theengineer swore wrathfully.
The red-head sent a couple ofshots into the night, then he
turned and faced the engine
crew as the . shot seemed to
diminish and grow dimmer in
the distance.
“What do you reckon is onbehind?” the red-head asked,
bolstering his guns.

Horticultural Executive
(Plan District Meeting
Two important matters engaged
the attention of the executive of
the Horticultural Society at a meet
ing last Wednesday evening.
Plans for the entertainment of
the delegates to the big district con
vention here next month were under
discussion for some time, as many
phases had to be considered. It was
decided to visit gardens and other
points of interest and in this con
nection a committee was named to
designate the places _jd'nd to take
charge of the delegates.
The executive also made arrange
ments for visiting Tillsonburg on
Wednesday night, June 1, for a joint
meeting of the two societies at the
home of Mayor Donald F. Gibson of
that town.

Reflecting Paint TestedIn Road Signs May BeUsed For Car MarkersThe new kind of paint with whichOntario’s 1939 motor car licenseplates may be painted is being tried
out in the Grimsby district on an en
tirety new type of highway curve
sign. The white paint is filled with
glass crystals, which show up vividly,
but with no back glare, when illum
inated by any kind of light. This
makes the black curve symbol or fig
ures plainly visible at considerable
distance. At present twenty-five
pairs of the new type curve signs
are b^ng tried out in place of the
“cataeye” signs. So far, although
they have only been in use for a few
days, they seem to be an improve
ment. Motorists say they are just as
plain at night as in day time. "Cats-
eye” signs, officials say, have caused
trouble through back glare or re
flected light on the glass buttons.
They are expensive, and the “cats-
eyea" are constantly being stolen
from the signs or broken.. The new
type of sign does away with all that,
and also, due to the uneven surface
of the glass crystal impregnated
paint, they offer less attraction to
the lead pencil artists, who cost the
Government thousands of dollars
every year by disfiguring the present
standard type of sign. If the experi
ment proves successful all highway
signs in Ontario will probably be re
placed by the new type and next
year’s license plates may be covered
with the same material.
Two Stores Burglarized
Early Saturday Morning
Climbing through a skylight of J.
M. Wilson's hardware store, which
they were robbing when police went
to investigater*3nd then apparently
speeding toward London in a fast
chase along the Hamilton road, a
burglar gang escaped early Saturday
morning.
Attempted loptmg of the J. M.
Wilson hardware store was foiled,
but in another raid in Ingersoll dur
ing the morning h^urs, thieves ob
tained about $25 worth of cigar
ettes, two small clocks and safety
razor blades from the drug store of
C. A. Love.
When police noticed lights flashing
off and on in the hardware store
about midnight, they went to inves
tigate. Thieves were in the building,
but they made good their escape by
climbing through the skylight on the
second floor as the police covered the
front and rear entrances.
A short thne later, a car was driv
en west through the town at a rapid
rate. On the possibility that it was
the robber gang, Constable Jack
Holmes and Cameron Bailey pursued
the car as far as Nilestown.
Mrs. J. W. Hagan, Hostess

men’s Association of Trinity United

ed. Opening with a hymn and the

Resigns At St. James’
Anglican Church
The resignation of Mr. W. J. Tune
as choir director of St. James’
Church, Ingersoll, has been accepted
by the select vestry and takes effect
this week-end, For fourteen years
Mr. Tund has held the position and
has at all times brought his choir to
a high standard of proficiency in
musicianship and his record as a
director in bringing this about is due
to his untiring efforts and the co
operation of his singers. Mr. Tune,
had at all times, the efficient support
of Mrs. Tune as his assistant and
. they were imbued with unlimited zeal
for the work of the choir.
The people of Ingersoll are in
debted to Mr. Tune for the privilege
of hearing some outstanding pro
grams given in the Parish Hall, some
of which ;were “The Modern Choir,-’
and the late Mr. George Carrie’s
choir, both of London. The gor
geous voices of Miss Hilda McMillen,
and Miss Legard of New York, will
long be remembered in their solo
work with the latter choir. For these
pleasures our 'thanks are due Mr.
Tune.
Anglican Guild Plan

en’s Guild of St. James’ Anglican
Church, was held in the assembly
room of the parish hall on Thursday

the vice-president, presiding in the
absence through illness of the presi
dent, Mrs. Charles W. Riley, Jr.

the attention of the members and
plans were completed for the hold
ing of a garden party at the home
of Mrs- C. W. Riley, Jr., Oxford
street, on Jun® 23rd.
Wife—“Did you post that letter
for me, darling?”
Husband—“Very nearly, sweet
heart. I’D try again tomorrow.”

Veale in charge. There was a good

the meeting was occupied with re
ports. A statement of the tea held
at the hospital on May 12th, was
very gratifying.

THE INGERSQLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JUNE 2, 1938THE ING ER SO L L TR IB U N EW. R. VEALE, PublisherPHONES — Tribune Office, 13 - Romdenca, 442A.THURSDAY, JUNE 2nd, 1938History Always Repeats“It is a gloomy moment in history. Not for manyyears—not in the lifetime of most men who read this—has there been so much grave and deep apprenhen-sion; never has the future seemed so incalculable as at
this time. In our country there is universal commer
cial prostration and panic, and thousands of our poor
est fellow-citizens are turned out against the ap
proaching winter without employment, and without
the prospect of it.
"In France the political caldron seethes and bub
bles with uncertainty; Russia hangs, as usual, like a
cloud, dark and silent, upon the horizon of Europe;
while all the energies, resources and influences of the
British Empire are sorely tried, and are yet to be
tried sorely, in coping with the vast and deadly dis
turbed relations in China.
“It is a solemn moment, and no man can feel an
indifference—which happily, no man pretends to feel
—in the issue of events.
“Of our own troubles no man can see the end.
They are, fortunately, as yet mainly commercial;
and if we are only to lose money, and by painful
poverty to be taught wisdom—the wisdom of honor,
of faith, of sympathy and of charity—no man need
seriously to despair. And yet the very’ haste to be
rich, which is the occasion of this wide-spread calam
ity, has also tended to destroy the moral forces with
which we are to resist and subdue the calamity.
The foregoing words were written 81 years ago.
They appeared as an editorial in Harper’s Weekly of
October 10, 1857. They might have been written
yesterday. We reprint them to remind our readers
that the present is not the first time that the people
of Canada and the United States have been beset by
grave doubts and fears of what may happen at home
end abroad.
We also think it is time our people were reminded
that the homely virtues of honor, faith, sympathy and
charily have brought us through more serious crises
than the one we now face.
Caution To Non SwimmersWith Victoria Day over, the swimming season forthis year may be said to be officially opened. Fromnow on parents and their children will be enjoyingthe pleasures of boating and swimming at every opportunity. We therefore feel that a warning againsttaking unnecessary chances while swimming or mboats is a timely one?— Every summer many valuablelives are Jcm in the lakes and rivers by drowning,and a great percentage of the fatalities could havebeen avoided with the exercise of a little commonsense. Everyone intending to spend their timearound the water should learn to swim. People who
can’t swim have no business either bathing or boat
ing in deep water. This is something that everyone
should keep in mind.
Making An Accident
A study of newspaper report of death injury and
destruction on the highways will convince any reader

COUGHS ARE DANGER SIGNS
At this particular season of the year, many people
have coughs, which may continue indefinitely unless
checked by appropriate treatment. Any cough is a
danger signal,—an effort on the part of Dame Nature
to indicate that behind the cough there is some
trouble. Some coughs are in reality useful, because
they help drain the lungs of accumulated materials,
which might otherwise add materially to the great
discomfiture of the victim. Dr. Bernard Faustus says
—"that there are three kinds of useful coughs—the
tight cough, the loose cough, the insufficient cough,”
all three of which may occur in an ordinary case of
bronchitis, yet each requires different treatment.
SOME COUGH CURES
The tight cough should be loosened and for this
purpose there is nothing approaching water—water
drunk in large quantities and water inhaled in the
form of steam. If one adds to water to be inhaled in
the forin of steam a teaspoonful of tincture of benzoin
to every pitcher full of boiling water, and holds his
mouth and nose over the escaping vapor, every two
hours, for a period of ten minutes, he will experience
much rblief. Tight coughs are often helped and re
lieved by what are known in medicine as “sovent ex
pectorants’’, and of these the best is a mixture of
ammonium chloride in the syrup of wild cherry—a
preparation to be found in all drug stores.
DIET AND REST
Mild laxatives help also. Rest in bed is of prime
importance. Hot drinks such as lemonade are bene
ficial. A light diet will hasten convalescence, such as
milk, orange juice, soft boiled eggs and toast. Often
applications of poultices or an electric pad placed

said:“Government in a democracy can
afford some inefficiency. That is
the price we pay for self-govern
ment, for intellectual and spiritual
freedom. But government in a de
mocracy cannot be immoral—that
saps its very life.”
No one who has made it his chief
business to . observe the political
scene and comment on it, as I have
been doing for more than forty
years, can deny that the state of
political morals has been constantly
declining in America for many yearq.
The reason, or one of them, seems
to be that politics has become a bus
iness in itself, a sort of racket in
which honest men hesitate to engage
because of the dirt with which they
are sure to be besmirched if they re
fuse to wallow in it with the "gkng.”

FENCES . . . "unsociable"
In Washington the other day I
noticed a gang of workmen engaged
in tearing down the low iron fence
around the south garden of the
White House and replacing it with
a much higher and finer one. The
new fence looked to be about eight
Ret high, and of the same pattern,
as the similar iron fence which en-
/•closes the front lown of the Presi
dential mansion.
In the newspapers the same day I
read that the Hitler government in
Germany has started a "crusade”
against the iron fences which en
close so many'*German homes, from
door-yards to large estates. The
piopaganda is based—upon lhe idea
that fences are ugly and unsociable.
It is easy to understand why the
jNazis want the iron fences sent to
the junk-yard. Scrap-iron is at a
designed to limit and eventually abolish them.• * •GLASS . . for buildingGlare ia one of the oldest of manmade products. The ingredients ofwhich glare is made, principally sandand soda, are found everywhere. Itscost is so small that, now that meanshave been found to keep it frombreaking, it is coming more and moreinto use as a building material.Down in Florida, I saw a new kind
of flexible glass in use for portholes
of the gigantic aquarium of the
Marine Studios. This glass is 5-8

Hardly a w^ek passes that I do

The latest is "foam” glass, which is

the long stor^ of the circumstances that bring acci
dents in their train is painfully familiar.
One of the dictionaries defines an accident as "an
event that takes place without one’s foresight or ex
pectation/’ says it is "often an undesigned and un
foreseen occurrence of an afflictive or unfortunate
character.” That is, it is not planned; if it were
brought about deliberately it would not be an acci-
ent, of course. Nobody says to himself: "Today I
must have an accident.” and drives accordingly. But
what happens in an enormous number of cases is that
the driver does not take the precautions that make
an accident improbable. He is a contributing fac
tor because he is careless, and takes chances. He
knows that safety demands reasonable speed on
curves, that if he enters one of them at sixty miles
an hour he is inviting disaster. He has read a hun
dred times of events "of an afflictive or unfortunate
character” at railroad crossings, but he doesn’t look
and listen!
So, as has been said many times, the personal fac
tor is perhaps^jj^ most important factor in accidents.
If every driver made it his business to keep out of
trouble, scrupulously 4o avoid brought catastrophe, weshould have to read Astonishingly few of those unde

Chain Stores
There has been so much discussion of chain stores
in recent years that most people seem to regard them
as something quite modern and presenting problems
which never existed until lately. But some recent
historical research by Professors T. N. Berkman and
C. H. Nolen of Ohio State University discloses that
chain store operations on a large scale were familiar
to merchants and consumers at least 2,000 years ago.
As in so many other fields of human activity, the
Chinese were the inventors of the system of retail dis
tribution through a large number of stores under
single management. As ftfr back as 200 B.C., there
are ancient Chinese records of an enterprising mer
chant who operated a large number of retail units.
In the year 79 A.D., the suburban town of Pompeii,
near Naples) was buried under the ashes of an erup
tion of Mount Vesuvius.* When Pompeii’- was un
earthed, nearly 1,800 years later, a poster was found
on a wall'advertising a chain of 900 retail shops for
sale or lease all over southern Italy. In the Middle
Ages the great and wealthy families of Fugger and
Medici operated chain banks. The first chain store
system on this continent was set up’ by the Hudson’s
Bay Company before 1750, and it is still going
strong.
The pniy new thing about the chain store business
^seems to be '£0* vastly increased number of merchants
engaged in it. x

EDUCATION management
I sat in front of the youthful pres
ident of Harvard the other day while
he talked about education. I un
derstood why he was the head of a
great university. He emphasized
what I have long believed, that the
one sclid foundation upon which any
correct understanding of today’s
affairs and conditions must be
based is the study of what has hap
pened and how people behaved in
the past In other words, history-.
I hear youngsters just out of high
school or college complaining that
they have had a badly-muddled world
wished on them to manage and they
haven’t been taught how to manage
it. If they had been taught more
history, they would realize that the
world is no more muddled than it
always has been, and that nobody is
expected to manage the world until
he has lived in it long enough to find
out what makes it go ’round.
The object of education is, or
should be, to teach the young how
to manage their own individual lives,
to get the most satisfaction and con
tentment out of life. If a boy has
learned in college that it does not
take wealth to live a happy life, and
that the world is likely to go on for
some time about as it has always
done, he has got an education.
PATENTS . limit monopoly
A bill has been introduced in Con
gress to pennit anyone to obtain a
license to make and use any patented
advice which has not been put into
use within three years of the grant
ing of the patent. This suggestion
is one of many which are frequently
made based upon the common notion
that there is something vicious about
the monopoly which a patent grants
to an inventor for seventeen years.
The principle upon which the pat
ent law is based is that an inventor
who is willing to patent—which
means literally to "make public”—
his invention is entitled to the ex
clusive use of it for a limited period
in consideration of his having made
it public and free to everybody after
his brief monopoly expires.
There is no compulsion on any
inventor to take put a patent He
can keep his inventiop secret and en
joy a perpetual monopoly in its use,
which he can usually protect under
the common law. The patent law, in
stead of perpetuating monopolies, is
The "ifs” of history lead to many
interesting conjectures such as, if
the British had not known the signal
that enabled them to pass the French
sentry, would they have won the
Battle of the Plains of Abraham?
if there had been a less autocratic
king than George III, on the throne
of England, would the American
Colonies ever have revolted? if
there were no Hitler or Mussolini,
would there be peace in the world
to-day? And so on, for almost
everything that comes to pass seems
to have a corresponding hypothesis.
And, we might ask, if a certain
Spanish ship had not been wrecked
off the c«ast of Hawaii two hundred
years ago, would we be enjoying
pineapples as we are now?
Pineapples were native to Central
America where they grew wild. They
were used by the natives, but tho
small prickly fruit, as it was then,
was hardly likely to appeal to people
living in countries where finer fruits
were grown. However, in that hot
climate where water was scarce, the
juice of the pineapple was very ac
ceptable as a thirst quencher, and as
such was often carried by the sailors.
So it was natural when they were
cast ashore that they should plant
some of the fruit. The pineapple
took readily to its new situation,
and the natives of the island took
readily to it, so that they considered
its cultivation worth .while, with the
result that it soon began to surpass
the original stock, Improving in
flavour and size. It was served to
tourists as a great delicacy, distinctly
Hawaiian.
In those days it was not thought
possible to ship it to America in any
great quantities, for it was perish
able and any that survived the jour
ney lacked the fine flavour of the
tree-ripened fruit. Visionaries used
to wish for some method of preserv-
ving it, but canning methods were

apples were to continue to be enjoyed only by those living in the {
tropics, or as a great luxury in '
Northern climates, where a single'
fruit used to cost a dollar and a
quarter.
However, inventive genius was not
idle, and by 1892 Captain John Kid
well established a cannery in Hawaii,
and the results were satisfactory—
So much so that by 1903 young
James Drummond Dole, recently
graduated from Harvard, decided
that he would turn his attention to
canning pineapple, instead of raising
coffee, as he had originally intended.
With the true Harvard mind, Dole
approached the business with caution
and on a modest scale. But public
appreciation of his product soon
raised it from the small-scale class to
a thriving and important industry.
So that now, pineapple has become
almost a necessary article of diet,
and during the peak of the packing
season, more than ten • million cans
are packed in a day in Hawaii nlone.
Add to that are the quantities of
fresh pineapples that are shipped
north, many of them to be preserved
by home canning. More recently the
industry ^has been extended by can
ning pineapple juice as well.
Would that all ship-wrecks might
have as happy consequences.

TILLSONBURG WINSBY SINGLE RUNIngersoll Intermediate “B"Team Held Scoreleaa Saturday. Game W ai a Pitcher’*Battle Between Beemer andCook.One of the best baseball gamesplayed here in some years was onSaturday, when Tillsonburg securedthe victory by a 1 to 0 count over
the local intermediates. Cook a
side arm twirler, was on the mound
for the visitors and appeared to be
master of the situation throughout.
He was given splendid support and
allowed only four hits despite the
fact he issued the same number of
free passes to first.
Beemer was on the mound for Ing
ersoll and tightened up in the pinches
although he was touched for ten hits.
He kept the safe blows well distribu
ted and except in the second when
Fishleigh’s single followed Bartram’s
three base hit to right and Dutton
and Armstrong also singled, he never
appeared in any great difficulty. Jor
dan and Compeau were chalked up
with errors but neither of these re
sulted in any runs being' scored.
Beemer appeared to have excellent
control, issuing only one walk in the
nine innings. Both pitchers hud seven
strike-outs to their credit.
Ingersoll awatsmiths failed to
solve the offerings of Mr. Cook.
Beemer was the only player to get
an extra base hit, this was a double
to deep right in the fourth. There
were several long clouts but the
fielders on both aides covered their
territory well and made some shoe
string catches.
A snappy double play in the third,
Anderson to Bartram, retired Hen
derson and Compeau after the for
mer reached first on Fishleigh’s er
ror. With one out in the ninth,
Vic. Buyers was sent in to pinch hit
for Earl Thornton. He singled to
right, but was left stranded as John-
fit on flied out to Laing in deep left
and McGinnis was thrown out at
first.
For an early season game, both
teams looked to be of championship
calibre and the ball fans are in for
a good summer of baseball if the'

Lessons from Science
Biology is the science which deals
with the fundamentals of life. It
concerns itself not only with the life
of man but also with the life of all
living things. Jt is inextricably
bound up with all the things having
a bearing on man’s existence.
Professdr Coventry, Assistant bi
ologist in fitv ‘Unrr-r^ity of Toronto,,
in a recently delivered address~on
some of the simpler methods of bi
ology pointed out the close inter
relation of vegetable and animal life.
This inter-relation is an essential
one. Many animals feed on plants;
they in turn form the food of other
animals or of man. Mice for ex
ample, live' on green stuff such as
clover of various kinds. One
thousand mice form a season’s food
for an owl of a half pound in weight.
They also form some part of the
food of hawks and other carnivora.
Mice multiply very rapidly. A pair
of mice will, under favorable con
ditions of food supply, climate, etc.,
become a million in a single year.
Their destructive possibilities are
enormous. It is a question if the
loss of an odd chicken from the
farmer’s hen house through the mar
auding hawk is at all comparable to
the losses to field crops from mice.
Another biological topic referred
to by the learned' professor is the
loss to agriculture because of for
est , destruction and consequent less
ening of local water-supplies' Prof.
Coventry told of an investigation
underway in one of the townships of
the County of York, Ontario, adja
cent to the-City of Toronto. The
township of King, the one in ques
tion, was first settled about 100
years ago. At that time the land
was covered with forest ‘and there
were actually 200 miles of running
waters within its borders. Today
there are but 25 miles of running
water in King township. The land,
denuded of'Vorest, has been one of
the finest of sections of farm land.
In consequence,- of the lowered wat
er-supplies it is predicted that, un
less some thing is done by way of
prevention x>f further loss of water,
the township’s agricultural land will
be useless for that purpose and that
it will no longer support its owners.
What is true of King township is true
for the same reason, of hundreds of
thousands of acres all. over the
country. What is the solution? Biol
ogy points the way. The solution is
re-forestation, in order to prevent
further loss of water.
In this connection another biolog
ical matter crops up. In Canada
there are many thousands' of unem
ployed. This condition of affairs is
doubly wasteful. The unemployed
are being cared for by the State.
Their growing families are living in
idleness with no prospect’in life be
fore them. If the "able-to-works”
were employed in planting trees, a
double usefulness would emerge.
These men would become self-sus
taining. Their morale and that of

AnaemiaTwelve yean ago, liver coma uebought for a few cents, and wasused to feed the cat or the dog. Today, »o many people are eating liverthat the price has advanced until itis only the indulged cat which getsan occasional taste.It was no longer ago than 1936when it was observed that patientssuffering from pernicious anaemiawere much improved when they useda half-pound of liver each day.
Anaemia is a general term which
means that the blood is deficient in
quantity or quality. There are
several kinds of anaemia, such as
that which follows upon a hemmorr-
hage, or the anaemia which usually
develops as a part of such chronic
diseases as tuberculosis, cancer,
malaria and lead poisoning.
Then there are the anaemias which
occur because of the failure of the
organs which manufacture the red
blood cells. We cannot live without
oxygen, and if there are not enough
red blood cells, or if there is a lack
of the haemoglobin which should be
in these cells to carry oxygen, then
the body tissues are starved of the
oxygen which they need.
The red cells are "inanufactured by
the red marrow at the ends of the
long bones, ribs and vertebrae. Pern
icious anaemia was, until recent
times, almost always fatal. The red
cells were so rapidly destroyed that
tlie bone marrow could not meet ths
demand; this, in the end, meant
death, as the blood could not carry
enough oxygen to all the tissues to
maintain life.
Liver contains something which
brings back the blood of pernicious
anaemia patients to normal and so
gives them back their health. No
longer is the victim of pernicious
anaemia doomed to die; health and
strength are his through the contin
ued proper use of .liver or liver ex
tract/
The fame of liver spread, and
many peOpfa began to eat it on the
general principle that what is good
for one ailment is good for others,
which is, of course, absurd.
Liver is not even of value in the
treatment of all anaemias. The chlor
osis, or “green sickness” of young
girls, a form, of anaemia, disappears
with improved habits of living;
other forms of anaemia respond to
iron therapy. In all cases, a blood
examination is required to determine
what form of anaemia is present;
this must be known before proper
treatment can be prescribed.

Lovely Materials But Simple Styles Favored For
Party Frocks For Young Girls
Birthday parties, Easter partiesand school parties call for "formal"dresses for the young daughter ofthe house. In the United States andCanada we follow the good oldEnglish custom of sponsoringsimple clothes for children. Nicematerials rather than elaboratestylings are preferred.
A charming little dress for HtUegirls is shown here—in silk. Whatsmall girl doesn’t like the feel andthe thought of a silken gown?A silk geogrette street lengthparty frock is worn by the girlkneeling on the chair. It la bexpleated its entire length from astraight, -shallow yoke. The shoulders are pleated, and Chantillytype of lace is set in the yoke andpuff sleeves.A sash in contrasting or deepershade is tied at the side front.
Little French girls are rather aptto be costumed in floor lengthdresses for the party or formalaffair. It is a tweet and quaintcustom, but not very practical forthe healthy, active youngsters onthis side of the water. A party isa grand Umc to romp, in rf niceway, of course, and even mother laa little hamper, d in doing anythingbut very polite’dancing and cardplaying In a long, flowing drew.
Party dresses in fine cottons andin rayon fabrics are nice 'for thelittle Jady, cottons especially, beingwashable and so’ less worrisome tothe young wearer in case things getspilled, which is always a possibility at a youthful party.
White is the choice of the oldergirls—of high school age—for partywear, a New York shop discovered,by means of a questionnaire.

“And I imagine she will hate amost interestin’ tale to unfold. Y’'know, it was not intended that shereturn."The truth is, this was not a kid-1
napping case at all. The authorities |were e-tperttd to accept it in that Ilight, but the murderer made too ’■
many er.ors—his fault lay in tryingto be excessively clever.

committed that murder had been■fiied for that purpose and had been
instructed accordingly. You willunderstand that the plotter at thesource never intended anything lessthan murder for the victim—sincethere was grave risk in letting him
Jive tc point an accusing fingerlater. . . . The slender Chinaman—
the tobby~gow of the gang—then re-turnvd to the house here, placed theladder against the window—it had
been left here previously for justthat purpose—entered the room
through the window, and sei thestage according to instructions, tak
ing the toothbrush, the comb andthe pajamas, and pinning the noteto the window-sill, generally (caving
mute but spurious indications thatRaspar Renting had kidnapped him
self in order to collect the money neneeded to straighten out his debts.“So far the plot was working
nicely. The first set-back occurredafter the arrival in the mail of >he
ransom note with the instructionsto^e the money to the tree Thescheme of the murderer tc collect
the money from th^ tree wasthwarted, makm’ ncce'ss'ry further
steps. The same day Mrs. Rentingwas approached foi an appointment,perhaps with ? promise of news oi
her husband—obviously by someone she trusted, for she went out
alone at ten o’clock that night tokeep the appointment. She wasawaited—possibly just inside Centra!
j ’ark—by the same hard gentlemenwho had done away with tier hus
band. But instead of meeting withthe same fate as Raspar Renting,she was taken to the house on LordStreet i' visited last night, and heldthere as s sort of hostage. 1 ratherimagine, don’t y know, that theperpetrator of this fiendish scheme
had not yet been able to pay theprice demanded for the neat performance of Raspar’s killing, thereby irking the hfred assassins. Thelady was, so to speak, a threat held
over one criminal by another criminal who was a bit more clever.
“Poor Kaspar! He was a weakchappie, and the price for his ownmurder was being wangled out-ofkirn without his realizing it. Throughthe gem collection of old Karl Rent

“iTo. Oh, r.o, Mr. Fleet Not con-
membered. Most vivid recollectiondon’t y’ know. And you were jolly
Frightfully sorry. But just sit stJ)
and relax"As I was sayin’, the disappear- ;ance of the stones from the collection was an indication of the identity of the murderer, for the simple
reason that thcMiirin’ of thugs andthe underground oisposal of thesegems quite obviously suggested thatthe same type of person was involved in both endeavors; io wit,
both procedures implied a connection with undercover characters—
fences and assassins. The tv'c notesyesterday were highly enlightenin’.One of them was abvionsly con
cocted tor effect; the othe.’ wasquite genuine. But boldness—usually a good technique— was, in tlic
case, seen through "“Refcrrin’ again tc the various
r> isorn i.otcs, they were dictated bythe plotter of Kaspar’s murder—that
is, all but the one received by Mr.Fieri yesterday—, and they werecouched ir such language that they
could be shown io the authorities inorder tc side-track suspicion fromthe actual culprit and at the same
time impress Mr. Kenyon Kcntingwith tno urgent nectssity of raising
the fifty thousand dollars. 1 hadvwc statements as to the amount ofmo.iey which Kaspar himself wasdemanding sor his debts- -one, anhonest report of fifty thousand dol-l>rs; the othei, no doubt a stupidlyconcocted tale of thirty thousand
dollars—again obviously for the purpose of diverting suspicion from the
person connected with the crime.”
’’The second note received by Mr.Heel, was not. as J. have already
intimated, one of the series writtenat the instructions of the guilty mar.• -it was a genuine document ad
dressed to him, and the recipientfejt that he not only could use it to
have '.he ransom money paid overto him, but io disarm once more any
suspicion that might be springing upin the minds of the authorities. Itdid not occur to him that the ad
dress, cryptically written in for hiseye! alone, could be interpreted byanother."
He turned slowly to Fled againand met the other’s smirk with acold smile.
"When I suspected you, Mr.Fled," he said, "I sent yet from the
District Attorney’s office Thursdaybefore Mi. Markham snu I camehere in order to verify my expecta
tion that you would urge Mr. Kenyon Ker.’ing to request that all
police interfe’-e.ice b: eliminated.This you did, and when I learned
of it, after axtinng here with Mr.Markham, I definitely objected to
the proposal and counteracted yourinfluence oil Mr. Kcnting so thatyou could not get the money safelythat night. Seeing that pi,rt of yourplan hopelessly failing, you cleverly
changed your attitude and agreed tcact for us—at my request through !Sergeant Heath—ca the oeraca to*
well fr’ h'enea by the attack. Surely,
you don’t Mieve yo»r escape fromany casualty w?s the tesult of amiracle. All quite sin.pie, really.The gentleman with the machinegun had no intention whatever ofperforating ycu. His only objectwas to frighten you and warn you
of exactly what to excect if you didnot raise the money instanter to fuy
for. the dastardly services renderedyou. You were nerer stfer in yo-irlift than whto that machine-gun’was 5f uttering a»’»y in yoir seat.ukdirec tioc,”
The smirk s-oxly faded fr>uFleel’s lips.
"Your theory, Mr. Vance,” hesaid angrily, "no longer has even,the merit of humor. And I wish you
to know that I greatly resent yearremarks."
"I don’t regard that fact as disconcertin’ in the least,” Vance re
turned with z cold smile. “The fartis, Mr. Fleel, you will be infinitelymore resentful when I inform you
that at this v:ry minute certifiedpublic accountants are at work ou
your books and that the police arescrutinizing most carefully the contents of your safe."
For two seconds Fleel looked athim with a serious frown. Then he
took a" swift backward step and,thrusting his hand into his socket,
drew Jpith z large, ugly (cokingautomatic. Both Heath and Snitkin
had been watching him steadily, andas Fleel made this movement Heath,with lightning-like speed, producedan automatic from beneath the blacksling of his wounded arm. The
movements of the two men werealmost concurrent
But there was no needffor Heathto fire his gun. for in that fraction
of a second Flee! raised his automatic to his own temple and pulled
the trigger. The weapon fell fromhis hand immediately, and his body
slumped down against the edge ofthe desk and fell to the floor out ofsight. y
Vance, apparently, was littlemoved by the tragedy. However,after a deep sigh, he rose listlesslyand stepped behind the desk. Vancebent down.
"Dead, Markham,—quite,” he announced as he rose, a moment or so
later. "Consid’r.itc chaupi^- -what?Has saved you legal worry no ccXMost gratiiyin’.’’
Snitkin unlocked the hordc-iffs cpyoung Falloway.
“So.vy, -Mr. Falbway,” m.ir-Ltu.-ed Vance. "Vat >ou kst yuw
self-coitrol ana b;c?mc a bit annoyin’. . . Fct’.in’ better?”
The yuuth s a mm-red; "I’m ahright.” He was alert and apparently his normal self now. "And Siswill be home in a couple of t.iysl”

and dislikes of the flowers. Certain
flowers like sunshine all day while
others prefer it for shorter periods.
Zinnias do well in sunny places while
snapdragons thrive best in partial
shade. All seed catalogues give the
habits of flowers and you will find
such information a decided help to
ward successful gardening.
A modem authority throws this
light on the much discussed question
as to whether daffodils or narcissus
are the "flowers that bloom in the
spring.” He says you may use
either name “with perfect correct
ness. Narcissus is the Latin name,
daffodil the English one. Both ap-
ly to all the different types.” There
are ever so many types and varieties
of narcissus. Classes are based on
color, on comparative length of
trumpet, cup or crown, and on the
perianth which is the circle of petals.

A Carpet Shampoo
There’s nothing that brings back
the colors and luster of carpets and
rugs like a good scrubbing. I have
a friend who shampoos a pair of del
icate Chinese rooan-size rugs two or
three times during the w’inter and
they always are lovely and glowing.
She uses the following formula and
1 have used it many times myself on
both oriental and domestic carpets.
Put one ounce each chloroform and
ether, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 table
spoon soda and % pint of ammonia
in a piq^jar. Mix thoroughly and
fill with water. Dissolve cake
of laundry soap in 3 quarts boiling
water. Use half the ammonia mix

Watch Coat Length*
Here’s a thought to keep in mind
if you’re buying a spring tailored
suit. Watch the length of the coat.
Either too long or too short spoils
its smart effect. Be fussy about it
and have the fitter turn and pin it
at different lengths because an inch
on your tailleur means quite as
much as on the proverbial nose.
