the address of the mysterious yachtsman,
Woodroffe, alias Horribly, and, secondly,
ascertaining that lie young girl I
sought was somewhere in the vicinity of
the town of Abo, the Finnish port on
the Baltic.
"Poor Elma, you see, speaks in her
letter of some secret, Mr.. Gregg" my
companion said. "She says she wishes

CHAPTER TX.
STRANGE DISCLOSURES ARE MADE.

The strange letter of Elma Heath,
combined with what Lydia Moreton had
told me, aroused within me determi
nation to investigate the mystery. From
the moment I had landed from the Lola
on that hot, breathless night at Leghorn,
mystery had crowded upon mystery un-
til IL was all bewildering.
It was now proved that the sweet
faced girl, the original of the torn pho
tograph, held a secret, and that, by her
own words, she knew that death was
approaching. The incomprehensible at
tempt upon my life, the strange actions
of Horribly and Chater-who, by the way,
seemed to have entirely disappeared
the assassination of the man who by mas
querading as the Italian waiter had met
his death, and the murder of Olinto's
wife were all problems which required
solution.
Had it not been for the mystery of it
all--and mystery ever arouses the hui
man curiosity should have given up
trying to get at the truth. Yet as a
man with some leisure, and knowing by
that letter of Elma Heath's that she was
in sore distress, redoubled my efforts
to ascertain the reason of it all.
The mystery of the Lola was still
mystery along the Mediterranean. At
every French and Italian port the yachts
false name and general build was writ

GREATEST AMERICAN
RAILROAD SYSTEM.

With due respect TO other good
roads east of Chicago, the New York
Central lines were unconsciously laid
out by Commodore Vanderbilt SO that
as a finished product they represent
a water course rather than a railway
system. They were built on lines OF
least resistance and flow from the
mississippi to the Atlantic, like
number of streams tributary to one
big one. The peculiar feature of the
New York Central system is that the
different lines feed naturally on a
water level grade from the middle
west to the Atlantic ocean, while not
another road escapes the high grades
and mountains. Illustrating the New
York Central as a water course: The
main river is represented by the four
track parent system from Buffalo TO
New York. Into this river at Buffalo
flows two smaller, but equally import
ant rivers from Chicago, represented
by the Lake Shore and Michigan Cen
trail lines. Into the Michigan Central
at Detroit, comes tributary stream
lIOHl MACMILLAN. luLO the LAKE SHORE
at Cleveland flows another big feed
ing stream. the Big Four, and at San
dusky another tributary. the Lake
Erie and Western. In this way IL viii
be noted that the entire middle west,
the garden spot of the country, is
beautifully and economically drained
into the metropolis through one great
main channel at Buffalo. Like the
wrist of the human arm the New York
Central with four tracks extends from
New York to Buffalo and from there
like the five fingers of the hand
spread the Lake Shore, Michigan Cen
trail, Big Four and Lake Erie and
Western roads, gripping the terminal
cities of Cleveland. Toledo, Detroit,
Cincinnati. indianapolis. Cairo, st.
Louis, Peoria, Chicago and the upper
lake region at Mackinaw.
Notwithstanding its commanding
position the system is managed on the
broad 4 lines, its dealings with the
public and press always being charac-
terized by liberality, due to the policy
of that railroad diplomat, w. II. New
man, president of the system. in strik-
ing contrast to the recent policies
adopted by some completing roads

WINTER WEAKNESS
Or. Williams Pink Pills the Tonic
That Most People Need for
Blood and Nerves.

In winter the air of the close rooms in
which we spend SO much of the time
does not furnish enough oxygen TO the
lungs to burn out the foul matter in the
blood. In the cold season we do not exer-
else as much and the skin and kidneys do
not throw off the waste matter as freely
as usual. The system becomes overloaded
with poisonous matter, and too feeble.

through the use of remedy that will

EskIMo's LOVE FOR TOBACCO.
Smokes Hard and Fast So There

mo man is fonder of tobacco than
an Eskimo, said the Arctic traveller
at his club, The Eskimo depends
for his tobacco solely on the white
man. For pound CT it he would
sell his eldest son.
1T is odd TO see an Eskimo smoke.
He chops his tobacco fine and mixes
1t with chopped willow twigs, so as
to make 1t go further Then he cleans
out with picker of bone the small
stone bowl OF his pipe, and then he
plucks lock of hair from his deer
skin suit and rams 1t down in the
bottom Of the pipe bowl, so as to pre-
vent any of the finely chopped to-
bacco from escaping into the stem.
Finally he lights the pipe and
smokes IL in a swift series of long.
strong puffs, so that there may be
no waste. Each puff is inhaled deep
down into the lungs and the first
puff's smoke is still streaming from
the nostrils long after another puff
has been started There must be,
you see, no waste. There must be
none OF that vain combustion OF to-
Gacco without benefit to the smoker
which goes on continually among us
Often the most. experienced Eski-
mo will smoke so hard and fast that
tears VIII stream from his eyes, and
he viii cough violently, and some
times vertigo and nausea will seize
him.
