Hargreave covered a good zeal OF
ground, but during all this time his
right hand never left the automatic In
his overcoat pocket, except at those
moments when he was obliged to sign
his checks. He would shoot and make
inquiries a%fterward.
Far away a young girl and her
companion got on the train which was
to carry her to New York, the great
dream city she was always longing to
see.
And the spider wove his web.
Hargreave reached home at night
He put the money in the safe and was
telephoning when Jones entered and
handed his master an unstamped note.
Where did you get this"
AT the door sir. l judge that the
house is surrounded"
Hargreave read the note. 1t stated
briefly that all his movements during
the day had been noted. 1t was known
that he had collected a million in pa
per money. If he surrendered this he
would be allowed twenty-four hours
wise he should die before midnight
Hargreave crushed the note In his
hand. They might kill him; there
was a chance of their accomplishing
that; but they never should touch his
daughters fortune.
Jones, you go to the rear door and
I'll take a look out of the front. We
have an hour. / know the breed
They'll wait till midnight and then
force their way in"
Hargreave saw a dozen shadows In
the front yard.
Men all about the back yard"
whispered Jones down the hall.
The master eyed the man.
Very well. sir" replied the latter,
with understanding, 81 am ready"
The master went to the safe, emptied
it of its contents, crossed the hall to
the bedroom and colsed the door softly
behind him, Jones having entered the
same room through another door to
fool any possible watcher. After a
long while, perhaps an hour, the two
men emerged from the room from the
same doors they had entered. So whis-
pered the watcher to his friends below.
"Hargreave is going upstairs"
Let him go. Let him take a look
at us from the upper windows. He
will understand that nothing but wings
will save him"
Silence. By and by a watcher re-
ported that he heard the scuttle of the
roof rattle.
Look" another cried, startled.
A blush glare came from the roof.
He's shooting off a roman candle!"
They never saw the man-made bird
till it alighted upon the roof. They
never thought of shooting at 1t till 1t
had taken wing. Then they rushed
the doors of the house. They made
short work OF Jones whom they tied
up like a Christmas tow and pumped
roughly into a chair. They broke open
the safe to find it empty, and while

room, venting their spite upon many a
treasure they could neither appreciate
nor understand, a man from the out
side burst in.
THE old man is dead and the money
is at the bottom of The ocean! We
punctured her. She's gone!"
A thin, inscrutible smile stirred the
lips of the man bound in the chair.

Grundv on Shaw,

Sydney Grundy has written a little
pamphlet in which he has gone for
Mr. Bernard Shaw with a Ratchet.
He says: Mr.. Shaw is a spent force
"a closed chapter-a tale that is
told-a back number-a lost chord-a
fired rocket-an exploded mine-an
extinct volcano, vomiting only ashes
and dust. Mr.. Shaw is done. His
star is on the wane; his candle only
cutters in it's socket; his beauty is
passe, his wheezes are chestnuts, his
sleights of hand transparent, his
humors rheum. He is running a race
with time, and gave himself twenty
years start, and time is beating him
to fragile.

ECZEMA ON HEAD AND FACE

Reedy, W. Va.-"My baby boy
when three weeks old took the ecze-
ma on the head and face. It broke
out in pimples and first they looked
like blsters and yellow water would
run from them. His head was per-
fectly raw and his hair was all gone.
Everybody said he would never have
any more hair. AS the sores spread
his hair came out. The breaking out
itched so badly that we had to keep
gloves on his hands to keep him from
scratching his head and face. It
caused disagreement. He couldn't
rest at night it burned and itched
SO badly
He was treated for eight months
and he got worse all the time. So

Washington.-The lid OF secrecy
regarding Mexican affairs was lifted
in the United States Senate by Sena-
torFall, Republican of New Mexico,
who urged armed intervention for the
protection of Americans and other
foreigners in the stricken republic.
The galleries were crowded to
Overlooking and remained so for hours
until Senator Shively of Indiana had
spoken for the administration, ex-
pressing regret that the subject had
been discussed in open session and
averring that no adequate solution had
been offered TO rthe problem.
Senator tall in a lengthy nara
ton of Incidents of outrages to
Americans in Mexico, held the inter-
est of the senate and galleries for
more than three hours. Assailing the
administration policy as inadequate
and declaring President Wilson knew
nothing about real relations and had
been mistaken in every act of his
administration toward Mexico, the
New Mexico senator pleaded for inter
Vention for protection to avoid inevi-
table war.
Emphasizing the danger of war
with a great foreign power unless
something should be done speedily,
Senator Fall referred to comments in
the German press over the killing of
the British subject, Benton, by order
of General Villas court martial, and
declared:
when the German official press
says. that should a German citizen be
murdered in Mexico, Germany would
not acquiesce like Great Britain, then

the United States and this country
with which we should always be at
peace.

TAKE A GLASS OF SALTS
WHEN BLADDER BOTHERS
Harmless to Flush Kidneys and Neu-
traIize Irritating Acids-SpIendid
for the System.

Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from uric acid, says noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder,
where it often remains to irritate and
inflame, causing a burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation
at the neck of the bladder, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night. The sufferer is in
constant dread, the water passes
sometimes with scalding sensation
and is very profuse; again, there is
difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
it, because they can't control urina-
ton. While it is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this Is
really one of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful in a glass Of
water before breakfast, continue this
for two or three days. This will neu-
tralize the acids in the urine so it no
longer is a source of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs which then
act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caused
by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts is
splendid for kidneys and causes no
bad effects whatever.
Here you have pleasant, efferves
cent lithia-water drink, which quickly
relieves bladder trouble.-Adv.
