Pinklets, the New Laxative,
Gently Assist Nature

The first step in correcting constipation
is to stop the use of strong purgatives.
Substitute for them the mild, non gripping
but effective laxative pills, Pinklets.
Strong, harsh purgatives are of little value
in the treatment of constipation because
they wear out the muscular activity of
the bowels and finally lessen their sensi-
bility to even the strongest stimulation.
The continued use of purgatives always
brings on chronic constipation instead of
correcting it. With Pinklets you need
have no such fear. They assist the bowels
and liver just enough to get them in pro-
per working order and SO gently that
they are not irritated by the treatment.
Pinklets are for every member of the
family. Each bottle contains complete
directions for use. Any druggist can
supply you with Pinklets at % cents per
bottle,

CHAPTER II.
T he Lady in Number 3.

T HE boy was soon found and
4 proved to be more observing
ENgSMs5Ng in matters of dress than Mr..
- Ransom. He described with
apparent accuracy both the color and
cut of the garments worn by the lady
who had fitted away so mysteriously.
The former was brown, all brown; and
the latter was Of the tailor-made varie-
ty, very natty and becoming. What
you would call swell, " was the COM
ment, eff her walk hadn't spoiled the
hang of it. How she did walk! Her
shoes must have hurt her most IN
common. 1 never did see any one
hobble So"
"How's that? She hobbled, and her
husband didn't notice it?"
ooh, he had hurl led on ahead. She
wass behind him, and she walked like
this"
The pantomime was highly express
sive.
That's point" muttered Gerridge.

tice her when she slipped OFF,"
ooh, but did, sir. was waiting
for the clerk to give me the key, when
saw her step back from the gentle
mans side and, locking quickly round
to see if any one was noticing her,
slide off into the reception-room.
thought she wanted a drink of water
out of the pitcher on the comfortable,
but if she did, she didn't come back
after she had got it. None of us ever
saw her again"
did you follow Mr.. Ransom whe~
he walked through those rooms?"
mo- sir; stayed in the hall"
did the lady hobble when she slid
thus mysteriously out of sight?"
"a little. Not so much as when she
came in. But she wasn't at her ease,
sir. Her shoes were certainly too
small"
II think will take peep at those
rooms now" derfidge remarked to the
manager,
Mr., Leomis bowed, and together
they crossed the office to the reeeps

Mr.. Ransom staggered against the table

did you see the face OF the woman
you spoke to in Room No. 81"
"Of course. She was looking direct
ly at me-"
"You remember it? Comd identity
it if you saw it again?"
Eyes; that is"
That's all, good-by."
The circuit was cut off.
Another intolerable wait. Then
there came a knock on the door and
Gerridge entered. He held a photo
graph in his hand which he had evi.
IDENTIFY taken from his pocket on his
way up.
Look at this, said he. EDO you
recognize the face?"
'"The lady"
"Just so; the one who said she had
seen no one come into No. 8 on the
first floor"
Mr.. Ransom's expression Of sur.
prised inquiry was sufficient answer.
well, it's a pity you didn't look at
her gloves instead of at her face. You
might have had some dim idea of hav-
Ing seen them before. It was she who
rode to the hotel with you; not your
wife. The veil was wound around
her face for far deeper purpose than
to ward off rice"
Mr.. Ransom staggered back against
the table before which he had been
standing. The blow was an over
whelming one.
''Who is this woman?" he demand
ed. "She came from Mr.. Fulton s
house. More than that, from my wife's
room What is her name and what
did she mean by such an outrage?"
"Her name is Bella Burton, and she
is your wife's confidential maid. AS
for the meaning of this outrage, it will
take more than two hours to ferret
out that. 1 can only give you the
single fact I've mentioned"
'And Mrs. Ransom?"
''She left the house at the same
moment you did; you and Miss Burton.
Only she went by the basement door"
"She? She?"
Dressed in her maids clothes. Oh,
you'll have to hear worse things than
that before we're out of this middle.
If you won't mind a bit of advice
from a man of experience, I would
suggest that you take things easy. It's
the only way"
Shocked into silence by this cold
blooded philosophy, Mr.. Ransom con-
trolled both his anger and his humili-
alton; but he could not control his
surprise.
"What does it mean?" he murmured
to himself. "What does it all mean?"

a physician who pronounced the sore
a cancer. Prompt medical treatment

There are three of them, as you

no one in No. 2, and in No. just one
person, a lady in street costume evil
IDENTIFY waiting for some one. To this
lady he had addressed himself, ask
ing if she had seen any one pass that
way the moment before. Her reply
was a decided NO." that she had
been waiting in that same room for
several minutes and had seen no one.
This staggered him. 1t was as if his
wife had dissolved into thin air. True.
she might have eluded him by slipping
out into the hall by means of door
