Varney had not lived in Boston very
long. He was supposed to have come

Dunton communicated with a profess

Y A WHEN Alfred Switzerland,
M broker of State street, Bos-
wv ton, discovered that he had
been robbed, he put the case
into the hands of Edgar Dunton. The
latter had been a member of the Mas
sachusetts detective force that used to
be called the state police, but had re-
signed and set up in business for him
self.
Securities valued at about 100000
were missing from one of the safes in
Southerland's office. There was moth
ing to show when they had been taken,
but they had not all been distracted at
the same time. 1t was probable that
the safe had been visited" on four OF
five occasions. There had been no
breaking of locks or drilling Of holes.
This fact put four men under sus
picion, but Dunton's investigation
speedily cleared two Of them. The
others were Mr.. Rand, the cashier, and
Mr.. Packard, his assistant. Both We're
past fifty, Of excellent reputation, quite
clear of debt or speculative entangle-
ment and altogether the most unlikely
men for such a deed hat could well
be imagined. Moreover, it was Mr..
Packard who had discovered the theft.
Rand, and the two of them had laid
| the matter before Mr.. Switzerland. Yet
one or the other of these men Or Mr..
Switzerland himself must have taken
the securities from the safe, if the
thing had been done at all.
Now, there could be no doubt that
the securities were missing, and if
they had not been taken from the
safe it must be because they had never
been in it. Could this be possible?
Mr.. Switzerland had been out of
health. For several months he had
been under a doctors orders to take
things easy, and he had been spend
ing two or three days each week at his
country place in M%arblehead. There
is no rest, however, for the %financier.
Instead of living out of doors, as he
had promised the doctor, he had on
Quoted many important negotiations.
and he admitted, in response to Dun
toms questions, that all the missing
securities had been delivered to him
at his home in Marblehead and brought
to the city by him.
There was a young man named Regi-
maid Narney who had an office for
st%enography and typewriting in the
same building With Switzerland & Co.
He had done some work for Mr.. South
erland in q notably satisfactory man
ner and had made q favorable impress
sion personally, being a handsome fell
low Of exceptionally good address.
Thus it fell out that when Mr.. South
erland found himself in need of a sec
rotary at his Marblehead house he had
employed Narney.
1t was physically possible that this
young man might be the culprit in the

A great many people imagine they
have heart trouble when the fact is that
the whole trouble lies in the stomach.
The pains in the side around the region
OF the heart are not necessarily heart
trouble. We suggest that you start
with the stomach and whenever you feel
a depression after eating or whenever
your food seems to nauseate take Kodol.
1t will not be very long until all these
"heart pains" will disappear. Take
kodol now and until you know you are
right again There isn't any doubt
about what it will do and you will find
the truth of this statement verified after
you have used Kodol for a few weeks.

abroad it is part of her suite, always
in charge of special groom.
The queen is fond of photographing
her pets; she has taken them hun
dreds of tiSes, singly and in groups
and in all sorts of attitudes. She has
also had many of them painted by the
animal painter Louis Vain. The
health of the cats is cared for by the
veterinary surgeon of the royal stables
and room is set apart as a hospital
for the sick ones.
