“Aw, pipe down!” Chuck hurled
his cigarette Into the fire and
stalked about the room, his hands
thrust deep in his pockets.
“Well, you ain’t gettin’ nothin’
out of it, stallin’ around this way,”
Molly prodded. "Say. didja catch
the wise one I almost pulled to-
night when th’ Jane’s askin’ if I

gonna say; ‘Frisco’.”
"Say, she wouldn't know what
yon meant If you hadda,” Chuck
sniffed.
’ “Look here! Ton ain’t failin’
fer that dame, are ya?” Molly sat
up In her chair, staring suspicious-
ly at the boy.
“Certainly not!”'- Chuck retorted
quickly—too quickly. He could
feel Molly’s eyes upon him, boring
through him. “I tell you I’ll get
the dope,” he insisted. "You just
lay off an’ ’tend to your end of the
game an.’ I’ll ’tead to mine/’
“Awl right Gimme another
fag." Somewhat mollified, the wo-
man reached for another cigarette,
lit it and puffed contentedly and
silently for a while. ”Say, thi*B a

apron. “Can y'imagine me?"
Chuck shook his head, smiling.

bulks opalescent with moving re-
flections, their red funnels sending
up dark ekwafla of smoke that drift-
ed lazily akyward. A tang of salt
air; the musty, spicy sweetness of
great, packed boxes; the mystic
odor ef wharves and warehouses,
all intermingling, called alluringly
of far off places, strange peoples,
other lands.
In the midst of all these happy
harbingers of the vernal season,
two drooping figures walked weari-
ly towards the Central Police Sta-
tion. Simpson chewed thought-
fully on an unlighted cigar, his
eyes on the ground. Cowles, his
hands thrust into his pockets, his
hat tilted sidewise on his head,
gazed straight before him.
“Well, here’s where we get an-
other bawling out," he sighed, as
they turned up the atepa of the
Front Office and followed through
the long corridor that led to Ser-
geant Cassidy’s sanctum.
“Good morning, Sergeant” The
two greeted their superior in de-
jected tones of voice.
“Well, anything new oh that Mer-
cer Bank case?’’ the Sergeant
asked them coldly. This thing was
getting on his nerves. Here three
weeks had slipped by, and neither
Simpson nor Cowled, his two best
men, had been able to dig up one
definite clew upoa which to hang
an arrest To top U off, they had
allowed the Shannon glri and Chuck
White to slip from beneath their
very fingers. And the gang at the
antique shop were a bnnch of
frozen faces when it came to talk-
ing.
“Nothing new, Sergeant," Cowles
shook his head.
“Now look here!" Cassidy’s voice
was rasping in its harshness. "You
boys get out, of here and get to
work. 711 give you just about two
mors days on this case.”
“AM right. Chief!" The pair
turned and strode out with as much
bravado as they could muster under
the circumstances.
"Well, what’re we going to dor
Cowles looked nonplussed, turning
to his companion for a suggestion.
"Let’s go up to see this here joint
Hawkins lives at." Simpson pro-
posed. “I still got a hunch this
here's an Inside job, an’ he was In
th’ cage with Daniels that night."
"It didn't do us aay good seeing
that janitor at Daniels' place”
Cowles reminded him. "Besides, !
don’t think that Daniels or Haw-
kins, either one, had anything to do
with tUs.”

Very Bad. Had Severe

Lexington, Ky.—Mrs. J. H. Nichols,
who lives at 513 EHm Tree Lane,
this city, says that Cartful has been
of valuable assistance toiler on two
occasions, which she tells about be-
low:
“Some few years ago, my health
was bad. I had very severe pains
in my sides. My nerves were in a
terrible condition. I could not rest.
"The lower part qf my body was
very sore. I could hardly stoop over
to lace my shoes. I would have to
put my foot on a chair. I did.
not feel like eating, and did not
sleep well at all at nights.
“A friend of mine recommended
Cardui. I began taking it and saw
quite an improvement in my coo-
tor a month. Wbalsa

About a year ago, Mrs. NicVmu
