Grippe, Influenza and treacherous
Pneumonia all start with cold, so
guard against these dangers before
yeur cold gets deeply seated.
At the first signs of cold (Which
is just congestion) bring your cir
culation back to normal by rubbing
Musterele on your throat, chest and
back. Musterole is a counter-lrrl-
tant which warns up the body
quickly and sets the blood surging
through the congested parts.
Remember the good ld-fashioned
mustard plaster that was grand
mothers standby? Musterole has
all OF the good qualities of that
messy old mustard plaster without
the sting and blister.
Made of pure oil of mustard,
camphor, menthol and other sim
pie ingredients, it penetrates the
pores and goes straight to the seat
OF trouble.
During the Flu" epidemic sever
al years ago, Musterole was used in

why would anybody" he coun-
tered swiftly Who else in this
household can wear your slippers,
Miss Tudor?"
For an instant. as this irrefutable
fact confronted her. the girl stood
staring at him as though bereft Of
her senses. When she spoke her
voice was carefully guarded.
II had not thought of that, SER
geant, but you are right, of course.
No one else in the family could
have worn them; but whether you
believe it or not, let me assure you
that / did not wear them last night,
or al any time within the past two
or three weeks, and l am utterly
innocent of any knowledge Of my
cousins DEATH"
q have brought no accusation
against you. Miss Tudor" the de-
tective reminded her. You have
identified the slippers as your for
mer property, and though they are
wet and mud-stained you assert
that you have not had them on in
weeks. That is the situation as it
stands. and do not propose to an
noy you with further questioning.

you speak of it to Doctor Green or

pause and then she added softly:
Did I tell you the other day that
l went in the locked room where
he used to sleep and where all his
belongings which you so kindly
brought home to us have been
placed? l saw his helmet and a
hand grenade and even his gas
mask, but there were stains upon
it. 1t all seemed to bring him back
so closely that l had an uncanny
feeling that he must be here in the
flesh, somewhere near!"
Before the captain could reply
Barry strobe boldly around the
corner, pausing in confusion
that would have done credit to an
actor.
Captain. this is the young police
officer from town. of whom l spoke
Sergeant Barry, Captain War
rem"
The captain bowed stiffly.
Captain Warren, | suppose you
are familiar with the details of the
crime?"
Miss Tudor has told me all she
knows" the captain responded
thoughtfully.
Have you any possible theory
to advance? l confess / should be
grateful for this seems the most
inexplicable case 1 have ever en-
countered."
How about that chap who has
been wandering about, stealing
clothes and food and entering
houses at will, without leaving any
trace? l should think he was the
most likely suspect if he were men,
tally deranged, for this murder ap-
pears to have been such a purpose

dered for moment ITO me the
most puzzling part of the whole
affair is how it was possible for
one girl to be gassed and the other
escape
Perhaps that is the most easily
explainable of ALL" he observed
and with a few perfunctory re-
marks he left them. his brain on
fire with a fresh inspiration born
of the chance use of a single word

wet and muddy as they were, into
his hip pockets and descended the
stairs to find the sheriff still in
consultation with the bereaved mis-
stress of the house, while the pro-
lessor was walking up and down on
the porch, evidently awaiting the
others pleasure to depart
Professor, there is something I
am anxious to find out about"
Barry began. What effect would
carbon monoxide have upon one
who had been only rendered in
sensible by it. or had merely re-
ceived Whit of it"
Headache, dizziness and nausea
are the immediate results il the
victim revives," Professor Semyon-
ov responded. REST and fresh air
will work their own cure in a short
time"
Barry re-enrered the house, to
find the sheriff gazing with a puz-
zled expression at Mrs. Tudor, who
was retreating up the stairs.
Have you discovered anything
new" Barry smiled.
NO, / haven't" said the sheriff
testify. I've been talking to her
for the best part of an hour and
finally / managed to get it out of
her. 1t seems that though her
niece, who is mourning for her
brother that was killed at the front,
wouldn't appear formally at the
dance, Mrs. Tudor thought she
caught sight of her out on the
porch. She wasn't sure, and she
wouldn't for the world have US
think anything against the girl, but
could tell as plain as day that
she suspected something against
the girl, even though she wouldn' t
admit it."
The sheriff paused for breath,
and Barry demanded:
You mean that she thinks her
niece overheard that talk about car
bon monoxide and went directly
and put it into practice?"
We'll, it would explain why Miss
Fay wasn't affected"
1t was late afternoon when Ser
geant Barry returned to the Tudor
estate. He went behind the garage
and to the rear of the tea house.
At his approach he had discern
ed a slender black-gowned figure
seated upon the steps of the little
toy structure, and beside it a man
with a pair of clutches at hand.
He recalled the episode of the
morning, when he and the lieuten-
ant had come upon the same cou-

|MILKLAW GOES
OVER PROTESTS
amendment Proposed by Commits
sioner Fitzsimm0ns Bans Six
Ounce Bottle; Other Rules.

Commissioner william III. FitZ-
siumons' amendment TO the city
milk ordinance was adopted by the
city commissioners yesterday after
moon as read a week ago despite
affection to one point
The ordinance amendment pro-
xides that all distributing vehicles
mist have the name of the owner
tainted on both sides in letters not
less than three inches in height, the
oTner's name must be stamped on
inc bottle caps and milk and cream
must not be sold on general distrib-
uting routes in any other than
glass bottles of half-pint, pint and
mart sizes. Milk sold in large
Quantities by wholesale may be
sold in cans.
Several milk dealers were pres
ent and objection was voiced to the
ban on the six-ounce cream bottle
now used by some of the large
dairies. The half-pint bottle holds
eight ounces and the milkmen made
various claims why a six-ounce bot
tie is better.
: 1t was pointed out that provision
OF the state law requires milk and
cream to be sold in half-gallon,
three-pint, quart, pint, third-quart
and gill bottles. 1t was also point
ed out TO be a state provision that
any manufacturer of bottles of diff
rferent sizes than those to be used
in the milk business is subject to
arrest and prosecution. The city
officials announced that they would
have TO follow with the state law.
Prices were brought up but the
milkmen were told that the city has
nothing to do with prices. but it is
desired to give the public conf
sdence in that which it buys is as
represented.

had been a gas mask in the house.
Barry entered the house bky the
back way and stole upstairs.
The dimness OF the room at first
made everything indistinguishable
to his eyes, hut gradually he saw
the mantel with the gas mask
upon it
Approaching. he picked up the
case containing the mask care
fully to preserve any possible fin
ger prints, and as he opened it a
faint but unmistakable odor as
sailed his nostrils, the odor of car
bon monoxide gas.
CHAPTER TX.
Sergeant Barry turned the gas
mask case over and over in his
hands. His intuition had been
right after all Fay Tudor was
innocent beyond any doubt for
had she asphyxiated her cousin
she need not have gone to the
trouble Of DOMINIC the gas mask;
she could simply have closed the
windows and doors, allowed the
carbon monoxide to escape and
left the room until it had done its
work.
AS he took the mask from its
case he noted that it had not been
replaced in the proper manner, but
had been thrust in with every evil
dence of haste A careful exam
ination revealed no finger marks
upon the mask itself, but upon the
case several were visible.
He crossed the hall to the room
in which the tragedy had occurred,
There he commenced an elaborate
search.
His efforts seemed to meet with
no success. for, shaking his head
doubtfully, he entered the bath
room. where he scrutinized the
shelves and medicine chests.
At last he seized upon a small
pasteboard box and opened it, dis
closing half a dozen white pow
ders wrapped separately in tilmy
substance resembling oiled paper.
With a little exclamation of sat
isfactiOn, his hand fell upon a tiny
porcelain jar with a foreign label.
and as he gingerly unscrewed the
top a faint odor of fresh rose
leaves f1oated out upon the air.

'Tney're-they're soaking wet,
aren't they? / don't know how
they came to be here"
When did you wear them last?"
II couldn't say; not since / left

Sergeant Barry" she murmured,
Il am very ill. Has the coroner
performed the autopsy yet? Do
they know how my cousin died?'
He paused for a moment Should
he tell her the truth and let her
know how the evidence was piling
up against her?
Miss Laurel Tudor died from in
haling a noXious gas which caused
sunocation and which we believe
to have been generated out in the
garage here he said slowly. That
gas was in some way conveyed to
this room and administered to your

cried wildly. Why was / not kill

out to the garage last night in all

Thompson Tax Bill.

Frankfort, KY, The Thomp-
son tax bill passed the Senate
late yesterday by a vote of
21 to l6. The measure passed
the House two weeks ago. 1t
now goes to the Governor.
Peyton Clark, Louisville tax
expert appealed for retension of
the present system of taxation,
and denied charges made by
Speaker James Thompson, au-
thor of the bill, that the tax laws
now in force are a "congloEera-
tion of the laws of other States. 1"
He said that the Thompson bill
would not aid the farmers, as
the author claimed, but that it
would increase their taxes.
Speaker Thompson explained his
bill in the Senate yesterday.
There was but little debate on
the measure, most of the discus
sion being the questioning of Mr..
Clark as to the methods employ.
