Marcel, rejecting that Bourke's
reckoning vas still some louis shy,
made no bones about pleading guilty.
Intercepted, the culprit deposed that
he had taken the money because he
needed it to buy books. No, he wasn't
sorry. Yes, it was probable that,
granted further opportunity, he would
do it again. Advised that he was ap-
parently a case-hardened young crimi-
nal, he replied that youth was not his
fault; with years and experience he
would certainly improve.
Puzzled by the boys attitude,
Bourke agitated his hair and won
dered aloud how Marcel would like it
if his employers were informed Of his
pe~culations.
Marcel looked panied, and pointed
out that such a course ON the part of
Bourke would be obviously unfair; the
only real difference between them, he
explained, was that where he tilched
a louis Bourke ilched thousands, and
if Bourke insisted on turning him over
to the mercies of Nine. and Papa
Troyon, who would certainly summon
a sergeant de vile, he, Marcel, would
be quite justified in retaliating by
telling the prefecture de police all that
he knew about Bourke.
This was no chance shot, and went
home. When, dismayed, the Irishman
clustered, demanding to know what
the boy meant by his damned impu-
dence, Marcel quietly advised him
that one knew what one knew-if one
read the English newspaper in the
cafe, as Marcel did, one could hardly
fail to remark that monsieur always
came to Paris after some notable bur-
glary had been committed in London;
and if one troubled to follow mon
sieur by night, al Marcel had, it be-
came evident that monsieur's first
calls in Paris were invariably made
at the establishment of a famous
fence in the Rue des Trois Freres;

If cross, feverish, sick, bilious, clean

Children love this fruit laxative,
and nothing else cleanses the tender
stomach, liver and bowels so nicely.
A child simply will not stop playing
to empty the bowels, and the result
is, they become tightly clogged with
waste, liver gets sluggish, stomach
sours, then your little one becomes
cross, half-sick, feverish, don't eat,
sleep or act naturally, breath is bad,
system full of cold, has sore throat,

then give a teaspoonful of "Califor-

hours all the constipated waste, sour
bile and undigested food passes out

Millions of mothers give "Callfor-

it never fails to act on the stomach,
