Kidney Complaints

The day after tho penitentiary Incl
company where he had small ac-
count and few hours later was on the
fast express to Denver. He had never
been in that hustling city, knew abso-
lutely no one in it and had not made
up his mind what particular course to
pursue.
1t was six days after he met Ray
mond in the penitentiary and five days
before the announcement that the body
in the morgue was his own corpse,
when he reached his journeys end. He
had taken a couple Mt days in going
around town. 1t would do him no harm
to get view of the place and gain a
Sigh. acquaintance with the topogra-
fphy. He might remain there for weeks,
and the knowledge would be of service
to him.
Had he parted with Isabel under Cir
cumstances more encouraging, he would
have written. But, as he had intimat-
ed to Mother ST. Gertrude, he had no
intention of writing to either the nun
or Isabel until he knew the probability
of success or defeat. He had been CIV
en- no hint that Isabel herself knew of
the heritage that was hers, and he
deemed it unwise to hold out hope I'M
til he had pushed his investigation fur
Their. He had thought of writing note,
giving his address, SO that Isabel. If
she felt so inclined, might write let
ter of explanation that would relieve
him of the mental strain her last recep-
ton had placed him under. But he re-
solved not to do so. He would continue
to prove his loyalty and fight for the
millions that We're rightfully hers in
her possession. He was too proud to
exact any premise while engaged i'll
this mission, and the enigmatical ut
terances of the girl and the mother su-
perior, though puzzling. gave no indl-
cation that their solution would DO un-
favorable to his conduct and character.
He would wait the outcome patiently.
But his plans to ferret out the crime
he was certain Raymond was guilty of
remained underlined. One thing he had
decided on. He would seek situation
on a newspaper. He could learn more
of city and its people in newspaper
office than anywhere else The place
would afford better advantages for OBJ |
servation than any other, and there |
would be at least few men on the |
staff sufficiently well posted to go back |
to the days Of Leland and help Mangan
in his mission.
Il don't know that I can fix you"
said the city editor of the Denver
Times. You're from the east, sou
say? Do You know anything about
II have some medical knowledge"
well, we have decided to give q
prize of $1,000 to the physician who
can suggest the best remedy for con-
sumption. We have tiled all the other
schemes, coupons and the like, you east
ern newspaper men have started. We
want to boom the circulation. Wen
get physicians interested, and there are
enough floating consumptives in Colo
RADIO to give big circulation in them
selves to any paper" smiling as he
said it.
I'VE have sent TO Koch and other
eminent European scientists for their
opinions of the public service this con-
test may render" the city editor con-
tinued. when we get these views, we
will push the scheme by interviews
with local physicians. We want man
who can talk intelligently to these men.
We'll try Sou. Call in tomorrow, and
I'll have list of names and addresses.
We must have these interviews ready.
Of course If the first DO not show your
aptitude for the work we will have TO
let you go.
That's proper, remarked Mangan.
I'm call in about 12.''
