A COMMON QUESTION

What has the Federal Reserve
System yer done fof mel That was
the question a working man 6Sked %
some days ago. He taia he eonsid-
cred 1t q good Ching for the rich man
but Of no value to men like himself.
do you remember the panic OF
1902" we asked.
."You bet I do" he said. "That
panic came so quickly I could not get
ready for 1t. Work stopped. The
banks could not let us have money.
We we're certainly up against II good
and proper"
THAT panic would never have
happened" we told him. ''if the Fed
erai Reserve System had bSen organ-
Used then. At that time each bank
had to stand alone. When danger
appeared. we simply had to protect
ourselves the best we could.
Strong banks help to make good
times. The Federal Reserve System

CHAPTER /
In Which He Takes Tea at the Carlton
and Is Surprised.
ONE

Captain Hugh DrummOnd, D.S.O.,
M. c., late of His Majesty's Royal
LOamshires, was whistling in his morn
ing bath. Being by nature of a cheerful
disposition, the symptom did not sur
prise his servant, late private of the
famous regiment, who was laying
breakfast in an adjoining room.
After q while the whistling ceased,
and the musical gurgle of escaping
water announced that the concert was
over. 1t was the signal for James
Denny-the square-jawed eX-batman-
TO disappear into the back regions and
get from his wife the kidneys and ba-
con which that most excellent woman
had grilled to turn. But on this par
ticular morning the invariable routine
was broken. James Denny seemed
preoccupied distract
Once or twice he scratched his head
and stared out of the window with
puzzled frown.
whats you looking for, James Den
ny?" The irate voice of his wife at
the door made him look round guiltfly.
"Them kidneys is ready and waiting
these five minutes"
Her eyes fell on the table, and she
advanced into the room wiping her
hands on her apron.
did you ever see such q bunch of
Ietters?" she said.
"FOrty-fye," returned her husband,
grimly, land more to come" He picked
up the newspaper lying beside the
chair and opened it.
''Them's the result of that" he con-
tinued graphically, indicating a para
graph with square finger, and thrust
ing the paper under his wife's nose.
'Demoblized officer" she read slow
ly, finding peace incredibly tedious,

She put down the paper on a chair
and stared first at her husband and
then at the rows of letters neatly ar
ranged on the table.

length. Fair flying in the face of Pro
violence. Crime, Denny-crime. Don't
you get 'aving nothing to do with such
mad pranks, my man. or you and me

admonitory finger at him, and retired
slowly TO the kitchen.
A moment or two later Hugh Drum
mond came in. Slightly under six feet
in height, he was broad in proportion.
His best friend would not have called
him good-looking, but be was the for
tunate possessor of that cheerful type
of ugliness which inspires immediate
confidence in its owner

At four o'clock exactly Hugh Drum
mond stepped out of his two-seater at
the Haymarket entrance to the Carl
ton. For q few moments after enter
ing the hotel he stood at the top of
the stairs outside the dining room,
while his eyes travelled round the ia
bles in the lounge below.
Slowly and thoroughly he continued
his search. 1t was early, Of course,
vet, and she might not have arrived,
but he was taking no chances.
Suddenly his eyes ceased wandering,
and remained fixed on table at the
far end of the lounge. Half hidden
behind plant a girl was seated alone,
and for q moment she looked straight
at him. Then with the faintest sus-
picion of smile. she turned away, and
commenced drumming on the table
with her fingers.
