The rivers edge. then whipped into
Mogul street, where the fluent tide
Of life ran broad and deep beneath a
glare OF light.
All too quickly the tikka whisked
out OF the main channel of the citys
life, out beyond the Mohammedan
mosque and the Chetti's hall and the
Christian chapel. and into the soft,
dense night Of the countryside-a
world Of darkness sparsely studded with
dim, glowing windows; and all too
soon, again, 1t swung of from tho
highway into private drive, crunched
over gravel and stopped before the
illuminated veranda of native bun
galow.
O'Rourke got down, discharged the
driver and assembled the steps, a little
puzzled to find no one waiting to well
come him, whether Sypher, Miss Pyn-
sent, OF at worst a servant. Surely
he was expected. But nobody
appeared. The grating tires OF the
departing tikkagharry had made noise
enough to apprise the household of
the arrival of guest. one would think.
Nevertheless O'Rourke remained un-
greeted.
He stroked his chm, perplexed, Won
dering If by mischance the native
driver had brought him to the wrong
bungalow. But Il was now too late to
call him back and make sure. And
this verandah, still and empty as It
was, softly lighted by lanterns depend
ent from its roof, was to him small
oasis in a world of darkness. With
out advice he was lost, could find his
way no other where. He would have
simply to wait until the house
hold came to life, or until by his own
efforts he succeeded in quickening it..
He tried to do this latter to the
best Of his ability by tapping a sum-
mons on the door-jamb. Through the
wire insect-screens broad hallway
and staircase rising to the upper
floor were visible. Limp, cool-looking
rugs conceived in pleasing color
schemes protected the hardwood floor.
Ing. To the right a door stood ajar
and permitted a broad shaft OF light
to escape from the room beyond. On
the other hand similar door, like
wise open, showed a DINNER glow.
Two other doors were closed !;
O'Rourke assumed that they led to
the kitchen Offices.
Having waited few moments with
out event, the Irishman knocked a sec

third when he thought better of it
and glanced at his watch. It was only
a matter of ten minutes after eight !;

Sypher's invitation, he was a trifle

Kidney diseases increase l67 per
cent in the City of Chicago in one
generation.
One OF the most appalling facts
brought to light by the statistics OF
the United States Census bureau. Is
the increase OF kidney and bladder
diseases. In less than one generation
these dreadful ailments have in
creased i67 per cent in the City Of
Chicago and in much the same ratio
in other parts of the United States.
These diseases arise almost wholly
from the process of straining the
human machine. They may be due to
over feeding or under feeding, to ov.
er work or under work, in fact to any

all out of earshot, preoccupied with
preparations for the meal; while
Sypher and his niece were most prob
ably still dressing.
With an impatient air O'Rourke
turned back to the veranda A ham

in the breeze. A number of wicker
armchairs stood about, invitingly fur
