/ rushed to the window and looked
out. A band of half dozen men was
struggling and pushing away from
Montgomery Street into the darker
end of the alley. They were nearly
under the window.
Give it to him." said a voice
In an instant there came a scream
CR agony. Then a light showed and
a tall, broad-shouldered figure leaped
back.
"These aren't the papers" it Kissed.
Curse you, you've got the wrong
mani"
There was moment of confusion,
and the light flashed on the man who
had spoken and was gone. But the
| could never forget. 1t was q strong,
cruel, wolfsh face-the face of man
near sixty, with fierce yellow-gray
mustache and imperial-a face broad
at the temples and tapering down into
firm, unyielding jaw, and marked
then with all the lines Of rage, hatred,
and chagrin at the failure of his plans.
1t took not q second for me to see
and hear and know all this, I1r the
vision came and was gone in the
dropping of an eyelid. And then there
echoed through the alley loud cries of
Police, Murder! Help" l was con-
scious that there was a man running
through the hall and down the rickety
stairs, making the building ring to
the same cries.
1t was thus with a feeling of sur
prise that l found myself in the street,
and came to know that the cries for
help had come from me, and that L
was the man who had run through the
hall and down the stairs shouting for
the police. The street was empty.
Fortunately the policeman on the
beat was at hand, and L hailed him

There was murder done, and I'm

He listened more attentively as 1
told him how Henry had left the
house just before the cry for help had
risen
Its nasty place." he continued.
It's lucky I've got a light" He
brought up a dark lantern from his
overcoat pocket, and stood in the
shelter of the building as he lighted
it. There's not many as carries 'em, -
he continued, but they're mighty
handy at times"
We made our way to the point be-
meath the window, where the men had
stood.
There was nothing to be seen-no
sign of struggle, no shred of torn
clothing, no drop of blood. Body.
traces and all had disappeared.

AN OPPORTUNITY FOR FARMERS
AND POULTRYMEN.
Five Wonderfully Helpful Books Pre-
pared by the Worlds Greatest Au-
thorities Can Be Obtained
Absolutely Free.

II has come 10 be well understood
fact that farmers, poultrymen and
dairymen do not take kindly To advice
from mere theorists. Quite naturally
they want TO know that the advice
given comes from practical and sue
cessful men.
Experiments based ON mere theories
usually turn out costly failures, but
when the same trouble that confronts
you has been solved by another person
and he offers TO explain the secret of
his success, it is greatly to your adj
vantage to learn what that man has
to say.
More than thfrty-siX years ago when
the Pratt Food Co. of Philadelphia
started on its way to success it began
the collection of information pertaining
to the raising of poultry and live stock
which contained not only fiattering tes-
timonials of the superiority OF the
Pratt preparations, but in which the
writer's gave their experiences in the
treatment of the various diseases pc
culiar TO poultry, horses, COWS, hogs,
sheep, etc. These experiences coupled
with the scientific research and work
of expert veterinarians gave to farm
ers and others interested in poultry
and live stock the most complete and
valuable series of books on the sew
eral subjects ever published. Each book
is the work of an authority, supple
mented by thirty-siX years real eXpe
rience Of people who have tackled the
everyday problems.
The books tell everything that is
movable or discoverable about the
diseases of poultry and all live stock
and answer every question pertaining
to their care and treatment. Ways and
means for increasing the profits de-
rived from poultry and live stock are
given, and the reader who cannot OBJ
tain from every one of the books in
formation that can be turned into dol
lars will be hard to find.
There are five books, as; follows
''Pratts New Poultry Book" Pratt
New Horse Book" "Pratts New Hos
Book "Pratts New Cattle Book" and
''Pratts New Sheep Book"
Originally these books sold for 25C
each, but for one week any one oil
them will be sent free of charge tC
anyone who will send postal cart
request for the book desired, to the
Pratt Food Co., Dept. r, Philadel
phia, Pa.
