Now, after seeing the beautiful Mabel
Durbin, he felt double interest in the
strange venture.
Briefly, student at leading col

And during year money, time, ad-
vertising, detective skill had failed
to evolve a single clew to the miss

come house Of mourning, the sister
had retired into a sad. secluded life.
One month before the disappear

chum, Willis Hope. had left the col
lege, never to return. He turned up
at the home OF his wealthy widowed
mother suffering an entire loss of
memory, wounded In the head by
some terrible fall He had fingered
along, in his lucid moments calling for
his friend. Durbin. Tracing some pos

the two cases, the first move Wilbur
