Nature Cures, the Doctor Takes the

There is an old saying that Mature
cures, the doctor takes the fee," but
as everyone knows you can help Ma
ture very much and thereby enable
it to effect a cure in much less time
than is usually required. This is par
ticularly true of colds. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy relieves the lungs, liq-
uifies the tough mucus and aids in its
expectoration, allays the cough and
aids Nature in restoring the system
to healthy condition.

mystery of a Remarkable
Crime and Its Solution
By HOWARD FIELDING
Copyright by Charles W. Hooke.

Mrs. Culver is widow, young and
fair and very rich. Her ways have
been ways of pleasantness throughout
the whole span of her years, and she Is
today the happiest creature that exists
under the blue arch of heaven. Even
trifiing malady of the heart with which
she is afflicted may be counted as a
blessing not only to herself, but to her
physician and to me. 1t spices her life
with a delightful though wholly imag-
mary uncertainty. She Is capable of a
delicious melancholy and reads the
works of the gentler philosophers with
q profit and joy which might other
wise be denied to her. And, besides. she
takes lively pleasure in changing her
win about once in three months with
the help OF my legal advice. Upon such
occasions the enumeration of her yari-
Gus properties gives her childish graf
ification wholly unmercenary, a liberal
fee Is mine. and when l meet her doc
tor we never fail TO shake hands upon
the excellent state Of Mrs. Culver's
health.
Mrs. Culver is discoverer of genius,
chiefly in the fields OF music and
poetry, and has helped many worthy
young persons, with only a moderate
sprinkling of mere schemers and spong-
ers. Every new object of her favor In
spires her with a fresh desire to attack
the impossible problem Of establishing
a permanent charity for the needy chill
dren of Apollo, and (only upon paper.
of course) l have squandered millions
for her in this way. A natural deli
cacy restraints her from immediate
benefactions of any great magnitude,
and so she adds eodicil to her volu-
minoas will and nearly always revises
her general scheme OF charity at the
same time.
Upon certain day had an appoint
ment to call upon Mrs. Culver at 3 in
the afternoon. and / looked forward to
the usual agreeable interview.
When | entered her house / was
aware of music, very good music, as /
am compelled to admit. Some one was
playing upon the piano in the smaller
drawing room upon my right. l guess
ed at once that the performer must be
a young Dane named Nils Kronoid,
whose genius had recently been
brought to Mrs. Culver's attention.
The butler informed Mrs. Culver OF
my presence. and she came to the re-
ception room, where we exchanged a
few words. l learned that she had en-
countered Mr.. Kronold in one of the
big stores and had brought him home
in her carriage. If cared to hear him
play she would take me into the draw

ing room, but if time pressed with me
she would dismiss him and give her at
tention to business.
Meanwhile the talented Dane con-
tinued to discourse most excellent mu-
sic, and although my conversation with
Mrs. Culver occupied more minutes
than the brief summary of 1t might
seem to indicate, Mr.. Kronold did not
cease to play. The sound was always
in my ears. although not constantly at
tended, yet / am sure that il it had
been interrupted beyond the natural
small pauses of the musical score
should instantly have been aware Of
remember it afterward.
l have said. however. that l did not
give a steady hearing to the sweet
strains that were waited across to u.s.
The reason was twofold-first, l pre-
ferred the voice Of my hostess to any
other music and. second, l had OBJ
served something which, though it had
no especial significance at the moment,
excited my curiosity and tended to de-
6ect my attention. Behind Mrs. Culver
there was a mirror. and 1t gave me a
view Of the part of the hall and OF the
entrance OF the room where Mr.. kro-
mold was. A heavy curtain was hung
across that door. / saw the butler-a
lean, dark. anxious man. whose name
- Derby-draw the curtain aside and

dren's hospital and one OF the doctors
over there could tell me In IA jlfTy
whether it's blood or not. Then we'd
have Derby in moose"
At this moment Mrs. Culver In her
search approached the piano, and saw
spasm Of uncomfortable nervous ter
ror sweep over kronoid's face. A great
illumination dawned upon my mind
the money was In the piano. Mrs. Cul-
yer had not remembered just where
she had put down tho bag. She must
have put it on the piano and not ON the
table. kronold had opened Il with one
hand. while pounding the keys with
the other, had taken out the money and
tLen had eleyerly tossed the bag to the
table.
may as well say at once that my
deductions-except as TO the hiding
place OF the money-were absolutely
accurate. That is precisely the way in
which the robbery was committed.
Subsequent investigations proved Kro-
mold to be beast OF prey, with long
record on the other side of the Allan
tic. He was, besides. as clever as a
conjuror and one to whom the trick Of
the bags lock was simple as A B c.
AT that moment had an inspiration
to save Mrs. Culver shock. A painful
scene WAS inevitable. but 1t had bet
ter involve no one except the thief and
myself.
Mr.. Kronold has made a brilliant
suggestion" said l, addressing the lady.
1t will necessitate our going out to-
gether for "A few minutes. May I ask
you to remain in this room, keep Derby
here and admit no one else?"
Mrs. Culver assented without ques-
ton. and Kronold and l left the room.
The musician seemed glad Of my com.
pany. and as l stepped out from Mrs.
Culver's portal into the glare of the
western sun my mind was busy with
the riddle OF the mans demeanor. The
next instant l was alone. The heavy
door was shut, and Kronold was upon
the other side of it.
1t may have been ten seconds before
! had the wit TO use my knuckles and
the bell. Derby admitted me, wonder
ing.
Where Is Kronold?" l demanded.
The butler stared and stammered.
fl supposed he went out with you
sir"
This, however, was a grievous error
Mr.. Kronold went out Of that house by
way OF a basement door and thence ia
the street at the rear.
And now I come to the richest part
OF the soke-the money went with him
1t had been In his pocket up to the
moment when he stood by the table
showing how the bag had lain. Then
the clever rascal put it into the bag

eptered upon the farce Of the search OF
bis own garments. The plumber was
hidden in the very receptacle from

so carried II from the scene Of his re-
/ markable crime. The stain upon the
bag he made with his own wetted I'm

many should be able to make a pre-

TO help cOunterbalance this expOr-
tation, it is known that in recent
months Germany has been sending a
considerable number of cOnScripts into
neutral countries to fatten up, prelim-
mary to active service.
The shortage in food in many big
manufacturing centers has led to the
return home of many highly skilled
Dutch and Scandinavian workmen, de-
spite high wages offered. Others Pc

weeks on better rations, returning
again to obtain the higher wages.
The latest food statistics from Ger

Berlin during August, whereas "a year
ago 1t wasn't done until November.
This was imperative because of the
shortness of the potato crop in some
