ing he might find M. Camel there.
For although a desert is dry and hot
and sandy, you must know that an
oasis in the middle of a desert is the
incest kind of a place. Cool and
green, with plenty of water to drink.
But Caliph Camel was nowhere to
be seen, although the snoring SEEM

Out in the hot sun it was really
almost hot enough to fry an egg, if
one had an egg and a frying pan,
and in the midst of the hot sand was
a heap of something that looked as
though some poor beggar had cast
away a lot of his old rags. Rags all
frayed. and worn, and moth-eaten,
and dirty. and brown as the desert
sands. oh, terribly old rags!
Lets look behind that" said
Nancy pointing. So they all went.
But no Caliph Camel could they see
anywhere.
N then-SOmeth1ng under the old

Jane-A Widow?


Mrs. Bob. let me take you home"
Morrison continued. Give Bob a
chance to e~xplain!"
HE had it! He didn't because he
)ouldn't!" 1 sobbed.
Mrs. Bob, your husband can. I
know what he's been up to. Believe
me-I guess I'd better say, believe
him. Now I'm going to call a taxi
md take you straight home!"
II have no home!" 1 protested.
We had risen, Morrison put a palm
under my elbow and l moved as he
directed.
I've got the real dope, Mrs. Bob!
Your mar is all right. But it's for
him to tell you his story. Gosh. I
guess this is the best days work of
my life! Makes an old guy like me
feel as if I hadn't lived in vain."
We awaited a taxi at the curb. A
newsboy, crying an extra edition,
thrust a paper before the detective.
caught a single word of the black
headline!
Explosion"
That word was so dreaded in the
Lorimer family hat it was taboo.
Explosion might mean loss of life
among the employees of the Lorimer
Chemical Company. Involuntarily /
clutched at the paper, but by a clev-
err movement Morrison helped me
into the taxi and thrust the paper
Into his coat pocket.
We sat side by side, silent and
white, we dared not look at one an
other. When we finally drew away
krom the crowded traffic I ventured:
Il saw! It's u plant this time!"
maybe it doesn't amount to much
Mrs. Bob"
Lets find out! Read it,"
I snatched the meaning Of the
article from the short words of the
head and sub-heads:
The local plant of the Lorimer'
Chemical Company had been wreck
ed. Cause not known. List of in

supposed to have been in the plant
at hour of explosion. Was not to be
found
The remainder Of the account was
as unimportant to Morrison as to
me. The paper dropped to the floor
of the CAB.
STEADY, now, Mrs. Lorimer!
Steady. now! That's right! Drink
this!"
l
saw horrid words shaping them
selves against the back of the chauf-
feur.
Bob-dead? My husband-dead?
MyseIf-a widow?
Cant we ever make up-now?"
I found myself putting this question
to the detective.
I, who had SO lately planned to
run away from Bob-who desired
never to see him again-was set
suddenly face to face with the pos
sibility, the probability that we
could not make up" ever again. l
found it beyond my comprehension.
Il can't live without him." l con-
ided this to the detective in a voice
I = did not recognize as my own. Let
him be unfair in love! Let him be
disloyal-I want him-I want"
The detective interrupted me:
We'll go up to the company's Of
fee, Mrs. Bob. They'll have the lat
est news there"
But it seemed to me that they had
news Of everybody in the business
except the owners son.

How To Keep
Yourself Well
Naccines for rheumatism

Will vaccines help cure my
rheumatism?
Although l have previously dis
cussed this matter, it may be well TO
repeat, especially to warn as to
sure cures" for rheumatism. There
are not only a number of different
KINDS of rheumatism. but many en-
tlrely unrelated conditions are often
mistaken for rheumatism. Treat
ment should never be undertaken
until after a careful medical exami-
nation i'll order to establish a correct
diagnosis.
Naccines have been used appar-
emily with success in some cases of
certain forms of rheumatism, but
even these constitute only a very
small proportion of the cases cor
rectly diagnosed as rheumatism.
Hemorrhagcs from Lungs
| have hemorrhages of the lungs
occasionally. but no cough, except a
little once in a while. L had pneu-
monia three times when a child. L
am twenty-three now, and weigh
EOS pounds. l am in good health.
Hemorrhages from the lung, and
a history of having had pneumonia
three times, makes a physician at
once suspect pulmonary tuberculo-
sis.
Let me suggest hat you consult a
qualified physician at once and have
him give o a thorough examina-
ton. In addition to this, see that
o get plenty of fresh air, good,
nourishing food and a proper pro-
portion of rest and work.
Learn TO use a clinical thermome-
ter to take your temperature regu-
larly, and be sure to rest in bed if
you have any fever. Should you be
suffering from tuberculosis, bear in
mind that the disease is durable if
the patient takes proper care of
himself.

Hosiah, in the meantime, has be-

dreams vanish, however, when he
