A CONSTANT ANNOYANCE.

Half the nervousness, half the irri- tability that is so common in every day life. is really sickness. and in most cases a condition that accom- panies kidney trouble.
 It Is the work of the kidneys to keep the blood free from uric acid and other poisons. but when the kid neys are sick. and not doing their duty. the uric acid poisons permeates the body. and attacks body. brain and nerves. The irritation causes ner- vousness, irritability. headache. dizzy spells: makes you languid. unfit for work. and inclined to worry over trifes. Besides. there is nothing more annoying than a bad back. and backache Is the most common sign of kidney trouble. You feel lame and tired in the morning. suffer day and night with a dull aching In the back. and it hurts to stoop or bend or lift.
 Keep your temper cool. and get the Kidneys we'll. No person can feel cheerful and healthy if the kidneys are the least bit affected A few doses of Deans Kidney Pills. taken in the beginning, will set the kidneys right

  The next day was Saturday. Tre- maine was to leave in the afternoon for his weeks absence. and he came ih before left in the morning to say goodby. He seemed strangely elatod and triumphant. Ills eyes were even brighter than usual; the color came and went in his cheeks. He presented al- together a most fascinating appear ance. He fingered only n|Qment to shake hands and thank me agnin.

 "Only you are flesh and blood, you would say" and he shot me smile which illumined as lightning fash the depths of his character. "On that score, do not worry, beg of you. l am not of jealous disposition. shall not
 A knock at the door interrupted him or might have answered in way that would have wrecked Godfrey's plan forever. I flung the door open and saw Higgins standing there.
 "A call at tn telephone fer you. MT. Lester," he said.
 Excuse me, please" I called over my shoulder to Tremaine, and strode down the hall after the janitor.
 It was Mir. Royce who wanted me; he had been called suddenly out of town and wished to give me some in structions for the next day. Our con versation lasted perhaps five minutes; then hung up tho receiver and mount ed to my rDms. With hand not wholly steady. I opened the door. Ire maine was sitting in the chair where I had left him and was just lighting another cigarette.
 He arose with smile as I came in.
 T must be going" he said. And you will keep an eye on Cecily?"
 Yes, I'll be glad to. Good night" I answered, and closed the door.
 As I turned Godfrey walked calmly out of the bedroom.
 What do you think of him7" I asked.
 T think" said Godfrey slowly, ''that he's one of the most consummate scoundrels l ever had to deal with. However, we'll unmask him. He's let ting us into his citadel"
 Did he sit still while I was away|
 "Not for an instant. I was sure he wouldn't. Therefore as soon as I caught Higgins errand dived behind your raincoat. Luckily, it's long one"
 "Yes. And thenY'
 And then he took quick look through the bedroom. heard him open the closet door and drop on one knee to glance under the bed. Then

 he went on into the bathroom and finally came back again to the sitting room."
 "Well?' I asked, for I saw that there was something yet untold.
 Well" continued Godfrey, "after minute or two I thought 1t safe to ven ture out from under the raincoat, more especially as certain peculiar sounds from the other room awakened my curiosity. The sounds were a sort of slow, regular scraping."
 He paused a moment to look at me. l could only stare at him.
 q crept to the door and peeped through. Guess what saw! You nev- CT could guess. though. Tremaine was crawling slowly about the room, run ming his hands carefully over the car pet. He was searching for the dia- mond."

So that was why he was 90 long after Tremaine in putting in m appearance at the Marathon. "Whars the matter with him nowr' he added.
 Hes been murdered. and we've been trying to find out something about him. Do you think the captain would know anything moreT'
 "No, don't. Plant him in potter's field and good riddance. I'll bet he didn't get any more'n was comin' to him."
 | With which sage reflection he turned back to his work, while sought the shore. Godfrey came into the oflce that evening just as was closing my desk.
 T want you to go to dinner with me-" he said. T have to run down to Washington tonight and 1t may be three or four days before get back. want to talk things over" | We took cab uptown and stopped at Riley's. and were presently en- sconced in snug corner where we could talk without danger of being overheard.
 'I've found out a few things about Tremaine,' began Godfrey as the waiter hurried away with our order.
 "And about Thompson" said.
 "You haveY' and he looked at me in surprise. How in the world did you do it?"
 His astonlshment was distinctly com plimentary, and related with consil- erable qualification my conversation with the mate of the Parima.
 Well" observed Godfrey when I had finished, ''that was bright idea of yours. That establishes the link be- tween the two men. Our St. Pierre correspondent wires us that Tremaine arrived there some three years ago, presumably from South America. He bought little plantation just outside the town and settled there. He seemed to have plenty of money when he ar- rived. but he probably spent 1t all-on that girl Cecily, perhaps-for before he sailed he borrowed $500 francs with his plantation as security"
 Seven hundred dollars that wouldn't go far" commented.
 He hadn't enough to run him a month-and he's been here nearly twice that long. It's evideut that he's an extravagant liver. He's been nov ing in expensive company and has. of course. been keeping up his end. Then. too, don't doubt that he provided for Thompson-gave him enough money, anyway. to keep drunk on-that's tho only way to explain Thompson's talk ing an apartment like that. should say that $1,500 would be low esti- mate for the two months. Of course be had to get all his clothing new Martinique clothing wouldn't do for March in New York"
 "All of which indicates" I said. ''either that he had other resources or that he's received some money $l,OOO at least--since he's been here"
 'Precisely-1,d Incline to the latter theory. He's working some sort of Tremendous bunko game. He's playing for big stakes. He's not the man to
