possible particulars of the Pendean family. On examining Michael Pen deans ancestry, as preliminary to finding out everything remembered Of Pendean himself, I at once made a highly important discovery. Joseph Pendean, NIichaels father, was often in Italy on his pilchard business for the firm, and he married an Italian woman. She lived with her hus- band at Penzance and bore him one son, and daughter who died in in fancy The lady seems to have given cause for a certain amount of scandal for her Latin temperament and lively way did not commend themselves to the rather austere and religious circle in which her husband and his relations moved. Michael was devoted to his mother and ac- companied her frequently to Italy. On one of these occasions, when boy of seventeen or eighteen. he met with an accident to his head; but l could giean no particulars Of It's nature.
 When at last Mrs. Pendean died in Italy, her husband attended the funeral at Naples and returned to England immediately afterward with his son. The boy was subsequently apprenticed to dentist. having ex- pressed q wish to follow that pro- tession.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY

T cannot stop here," he said wher she had gone. This is no life for 6 man. Jenny will probably remain with her uncle. She is fed up, as you say, with me. am very unfor- tunate, Marco, for I have not in the least deserved to lose her affection"
 He departed and Brendon joined Albert Redmayne, to find the old man had grown uneasy and fretful.
 T am not happy, Brendon," he said. There is coming into my mind a cloud--a premonition that very dreadful disasters are going to hap pen to those I love. When does Cams return 2"
 Soon after dark, MT. Redmayne. Perhaps about 3 o'clock we may ex- pect him, Be patient little longer.
 Tt has not happened to me to feel as I do today" answered the boon lover. "A sense of ill darkens my mind--a suspicion of finality, and Jenny shares it. Something is amiss, She has a presentiment that 1t is so. ''
 Jenny presently joined them and all entered the dining room together where tea was served.
 They sat long and the shadows were lengthening before the old man returned to his apartments. Then Giuseppe lit one of his Tuscan cigars, took his hats&ad left the house.
 At last." yspered Jenny, her face lighting in resfef. He will be gone for a good two hours now and we can talk"
 Not here, then" Mark answered Let us go into the garden. Then can see when the man comes back"
 Presently Ernesto came and turned or an electric bulb that hung over the scrolled iron work of the outer gate. Then they were alone again, and the woman threw off all shadow If reserve and restraint.
 Thank God you can listen at last, she said, then poured out flood of entreaties. He was swept from every mental hold, drowned in the torrent of her petitions, baffled and bewil- dered at one moment, filled with joy in the next.
 For an hour she spoke and detailed all she had been called upon to en- dure. .3..
 Brendon listened with a rapture that was almost incredulous; for she loved him at last and desired nothing better than to come to him and forget the double tragedy that had ruined her young life.
 She was in his arms now and he sought to soothe her, sustain her and bring her mind to regard future wherein peace, happiness and con- tent might still be her portion. An other hour passed, the fiitfiies danced over their heads; sweet scents stole through the garden; lights twinkled from the house; on the lake in the silence that now fell between them they heard the gentle thud of steamers propeller. Still Doria did not return and as church clock struck the hour Jenny rose.
 She left him to seek Assunta; and he, hearing the steamer and guessing that Peter was at hand, hastened to the house. Silence seemed to fill it, and. as he lifted his voice and called to Albert Redmayne, the noise on the l water ceased. No answer reached | Mark and from the library he pro- | ceeded to. the adjoining bedroom It was empty and he hastened out upon | the-veranda above the lake. But still

F RHEUMATIC
 EAT NO SWEETS
Says Glass of Salts Helps to Over
 come Rheumatism Acid.

Rheumatism is easier to avoid than to cure, states a well-known author ity. We are advised to dress warm ly, keep the feet dry, avoid exposure, and above all drink plenty of good water and avoid eating sweets of all kind.
 Rheumatism is caused by body waste and acids resulting from food fermentation. It is the function Of the kidneys to filter this poison from the blood and cast it out in the urine; the pores of the skin are also 8 means of freeing the blood of this iinpurity. In damp and chilly cold weather the skin pores are closed, thus forcing the kidneys to do double work; they become weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate this waste and acids, which keeps accommodating and cirCu- lating through the system. eventually settling in the joints and muscles, causing stiffness, soreness and pain. called rheumatism.
 At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces Of lad Salts; put a tablespoon full in glass of water and drink be- fore breakfast each morning for a week. This is helpful to neutTalize acidity. remove waste matter. also to stimulate the kidneys. thus often rid ding the blood of rheumatic poison.
 lad Salts is inexpensive. and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and is used with excellent results by thousands Of folks vho are subject to Nieumatism.

NUMBER PLATES MUST BE
 SEEN IN NUTMEG STATE
Auto Makers Advised That Bumpers,
 Must Not Cover License

Automobile manufacturers have
 been notified of decision of Connec-
 ticut and eight other states to prose-
 cute persons driving motor vehicles, on which the registration plates are
 obscured by bumpers or other equip ment. Through the National Automo- bile Chamber of Commerce, the man. ufacturers have been advised that fac- tories which have been placing brack- cts for the registration plates in posi- tions which prevent an unobstructed view of the registration plates should make corrections immediately.
 The cooperation of the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce in this respect was requested by the eastern conference of motor vehicle administrators, the member states of which are Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Maryland. E. Austin Baughman of Maryland, secretary of the confer ence, notified the chamber of com merce that, notwithstanding the fact that the motor vehicle laws of prac- tically every state holding membership in the conference prohibit the impro- per location of number plates, some manufacturers are, nevertheless, se- lecting positions for the brackets where the license plates cannot cas- ily be seen. -..
 The Connecticut department has also requested the police to put a stop to the practice of carrying mark CTS so dirty or badly defaced as to make the numbers illegible.

CHAPTER XVII. The Methods of Peter Cams

Two men travelled together in the train de luxe from Milan to Calias. Cams wore black band upon the sleeve of his left arm; his com panion carried the marks of mourn ing in his face. It seemed that Brendon had increased in age; his countenance looked haggard; his very voice was older.
 Peter tried to distract the younger man. who appeared to listen, though his mind was far away and his thoughts breeding upon a grave.
 After a pause and long silence, while the train sped through the darkness of the Simplon tunnel, Peter retraced the steps by which he lad been enabled to solve the riddle of the Redmaynes.

 Then Peter burned to the rest anG
 bade them all, with Jenny, accom-
 pany him to the dwelling room. Sup. | per had been laid here but the apart ment was empty.
 What has happened" explained Peter, lis this: Doria has used the cnly certain means of getting Albert Redmayne out of this house. and his wife has doubtless aided him to the best of her power by arresting the attention Of my colleague whom l left in charge. How she did it I can easily guess
 Jenny's mortified eyes famed at him and her face grew rosy.
 How little you know!" she cried.
 This is cruel, infamous! Have I not suffered enough?"
 "If I am wrong, I'll be the first to own 1t, ma'am," he answered. But I am not wrong. What has hap pened means that your husband will be back to. supper. That's but ten minutes to wait. Assunta, return to the kitchen. Ernesto, hide in the garden and lock the iron gate as soon as Doria has passed through it"
 Silence fell and in five minutes came the chink of the iron gate and the footfal of man without Doria was singing his canzonet. He came straight into the room, stared about him at the assembled men, then fixed his eyes upon his wife.
 What's this?" he cried in amaze ment. .........
 Games up and you've lost,' an- swered Cams. You're a great crook! And your own vanity is all that's beat you!' He turned quickly to the chief of police, who showed a warrant and spoke English.
 Michael Pendean," he said, you are arrested for the murder of Rob- ert Redmayne and Bendigo Red- mayne."
 And add Albert Redmayne.' growled Cams. He leaped aside with amazing agility as he spoke, for the culprit had seized the weapon nearest his hand and hurled a heavy saltcellar from the table at Peters head. The mass of glass crashed into an old Italian mirror behind Cams and at the moment when all eyes in- stinctively followed the sound, Jenny's husband dashed for the door. Like lightning he turned and was over the threshold before a hand could be lifted to stop him; but one in the room had watched and now he raised his, revolver. This young officer destined for future fame-had never taken his eyes off Doria and now he fired. He was quick but another had been quicker, had seen his purpose and anticipated his action. The bull let meant for Michael Pendean struck down his wife, for Jenny had leaped into the doorway and stopped it.
 She fell without sound where upon the fugitive turned instantly, a abandoned his flight, ran to her, knelt and lifted her to his breast.
 He was harmless now. but he em- oraced a. dead woman and the blood | rom her mouth. as he kissed her. covered his lips. He made no fur her fight and, knowing that she was lead, carrier her to a couch, laid her gently down, then turned and stretch his arms for the handcuffs
 A moment later Mark Brendon en- cred from the house.
 "Poggi sent no message and Albert 7edmayne has not been seen at Bel agio," he said.
