and that's scarcely necessary. You know, Dan, you will have about . third of Garry's money"
 You bet I know 1t! And you have . third and old Neville 1ias a third. Aunt, why does Roger Ne- vile get 50 much?" They planned 1t, Dan. Their wills were made at the same time, and whichever one of them lived 1 longer inherited a third of the others fortune"
 Then what price Neville as the murderer"
 Don't be absurd. We'll, as was saying, now that you have fair fortune if you like to take on Ross do so."
 "All right. and I'll take these rooms. aunt. You can get others to suit you. And I suppose I can , have Uncle Garry's personal be- longings: I mean his mannish traps the ones you can't use."
 Pelton gave a quick. appraising glance at his aunt, realizing sudden ly that with her own mannish eff fects, there might well be few of her brothers things that she could use.
 But she gave little heed to the subject and acquiesced in his plans for getting herself another suite.
 But you're to help me, Dan," she said. gravely. If you don't I shall cut you out of my will. and then the day will come when you'll regret it." You bet I would." he ex- claimed, fervently. T don't want you to step off, Aunt Stasia. for I'm really fond of you. But when you do l most certainly expect to be your sole heir. You're a cold -blooded brute, Dan. but your prospects depend entirely on your meeting my wishes so long as am alive to 1, express them."
 Here goes then. What do you want me to do first?"
 Dan Pelton was not really the brute he seemed, but he had thor oughly dislikcd his uncle. while he was friendly with his aunt. Money was his god, and at heart he was glad that circumstances had sent him a windfall. But he also looked forward to the time when his aunt's fortune should be his, too. though not with such greedy anticipation that he de- sired her immediate death.
 He Was humanly shocked at his uncle's fate, and more than will ing to help his aunt In her efforts. so long as it didn't interfere too much with his own comfort.
 You sec.' he said, seriously. all Ocean Town has risen as one man in indignation at this out rage. Oh. I don't mean the bath ing population, the frivolous beach crowd. but the important people, city fathers, landholders, hotel men and all that. And the police, though up against 1t. are trying to do their best to get at the truth of the matter"
 How do you know all this:" asked his aunt in surprise You've only just arrived"
 "Oh, pick up news by in- stinct," Pelton returned, lighting another cigaret and walking about the room as he took up and scrutinized one doll after another. "I suppose I can have these toys auntie?"
 To Be Continued
 Those dolls in FolsOM's room. What significance do they hold, and why does Dan Pelton want them?

Mary Has . Duel Of Wits with
 Eleanor Lincoln.

It was only for an instant that I saw panic mirrored in the great black pansy eyes of Eleanor Lin- coin. our mysterious new neighbor. So swiftly did it vanish that I told myself must be mistaken in think ing she had betrayed fear at Mary Harrison's assertion that she was positive she had seen her before.
 Its entirely possible" Miss Lin coin said with touch of hauteur that someway became her better than the rather hoydenish manner she had shown but moment be- fore. But it's not very probable. We came here from the West not so very long ago. and I spent several
 80 that I did not go around New York very much. Really about the only place where you could have seen me vas at that club where Mr. Neritzen played. Were you there:'
 It was Mary's turn to betray panic and with cause. The secret Of her identity as the masked dancer Of the night-club had been carefully guarded since the night which marked the dramatic finals of that experience. But this stranger who had seen Noel there might very easily have noticed her also. and need only the present flip of mem- ory to make an accurate and embar- rassing guess. I cast about in my mind for an interpolation which would save Mary an answer. when Dicky easily and plausibly came to the rescue.
 You're touching on a sore sub- feet. Miss Lincoln" he said lazily. "My niece always wanted to go 10 that club to see the famous masked dancer who was there for a time, but she had so rigid a regime of study that she never felt she could spare the time to go. And then. upon the only night when she took an evening off and went down there. the masked dancer was ill and did not appear. Mary never had the courage to repeat the experience"
 1 was amazed at his ingenious mixture of truth and falsehood but for a tense minute thought he had overreached himself. for Miss Lin- coin was gazing at Mary with ab- sorbed interest.
 T saw that masked dancer" she said slowly, "the same night heard

Mir Veritzen play. and do you know. if your uncle's words hadn't made my fancy impossible. I should imagine you were she. You have the same height, figure-everything."
 If Mary in the future acquits her self with such histrionic ability as she did at that crucial moment, there will be no question of her success.
 How perfectly wonderful" she caroled. T am simply thrilled pink. I've heard so much about that girl, and wanted to see her so much, and now to be told that l look like her. Do you hear, Auntie Madge, every body? I warn you I'm going 10 be terribly conceited from now on."
 We all laughed. dutifully, and Miss Lincoln. evidently satisfied. addressed Noel again.
 'Neritzen' is an unusual name" chance related to Philip Neritzen. the famous theatrical producer"
 Noel flushed painfully.
 He is my father" he said slowly.
 The girl clapped her hands as if she were a child who saw a box of bonbons approaching labeled for her.
 "Oh. how fortunate." she said. T was wondering how I was going to see him. Now it will be very simple. You shall take me to him and in- troduce me. I want him to hear me. I have high ambitions. I wish to be- come d great actress. and as he holds the most exalted place in his profession. I desire to see him."
 ] saw Dicky start perceptibly at this extraordinary speech. and knew that despite his admiration of the girl he was having hard work to subdue chuckle at her naive au- dacity. When I thought Of the thorny hedges of reserve which Philip Neritzon had built around himself, and the almost impossibil- ity of his listening to any novice whom he had not himself selected for an audience, I silently echoed Dicky's amusement albeit I also felt bewilderment at a certain un- reasoning peremptoriness Of phras- ing and manner in our young neigh bor's astonishing proposition. Truly. I reflected. whatever might be our new neighbours history, she has been accustomed to having her own way.

Peter Rabbit was just about to ask Spotcoat the Leopard some Elore questions when the sound of . yawn caused Peter to turn his head. "Oh" cried Peter faintly. and his eyes looked as if they couldn't possibly stay in his head You see, he was looking into great cavern of a mouth. Just how he knew 1t was a mouth he couldn't have said. but he did. Never in his widest dreams had he imagined such mouth. It was broad and it was deep and 1t was so big that he could have sat right up in it with his ears straight up and then not touch the roof of 1t. Slowly the two great jaws came together and then Peter found himself looking at the homeliest person he had ever seen. He knew it must be one of the people from one of those far away countries. for, like the others. it Mas in one of those grat cages on wheels. But he hadn't supposed there was anybody in all the great world 50 homely.
 SpotcoAt the Leopard saw the funny expression on Peters face. That is Bigmouth the Hippopota- mus" said Spotcoat. Isn't he bsauty?" spotcoat grinned when he said this. ''They call him Bismouth the Hippo for short" he added
 DnAAu -<o v~, ns+ av,a A11+n1w onA all tho time he kept swallowing something that wouldn't go down. Here was some one with a body al- most as big as My Lord tho Ele- phant but that body was mounted on four short, very stout legs. like tho skin. The ears were rather small and 50 were the eyes. but the mouth made up for all else. Once more Bigmouth yawned and all Peter could think Of was the open ing of Farmer Browns barn door. Just then Peter was joined by Dan ny Meadow Mouse. who, in spite of all Nanny could say. had crept into tho circus tent once more. Danny wasn't as big as one of Bigmouth's teeth. He winked and he blinked. "Did you ever feel so small in all your life, Peter Rabbit?" he de- manded.
 Peter confessed that he never had. Why" he said. "hls mouth Is so big that If I should jump into it he would never know I was there. He must be a dreadful person when he is free
 Not 30 dreadful" said spotcoat the Leopard. who had overheard the remark. Nobody is particularly afraid Of Bigmoutf. You see, Big mouth lives in the water.'
 "He lives in the what?" cried Peter.
 "The water" replied Spotcoat. "Where he lives they call him the River Hog"
 Does he swim" asked Peter.
 NOW. look here Longears. if he didn't swim how would he live in the watero Of course he swims," replied Spotcoat.
 Does he breathe like a fish ?' Peter inquired.
 "No." replied spotcoat He breathes just as you and I do. But when he wants 10 go to the bot tom he can take @ lot of air down with him: and he doesn't have to come up to breathe for some time. He likes to wallow in the mud A2cnS the banks of 6 river"
New Britain herald., 1927-05-12

Does he eat fish or animals or birds?" inquired Peter.
 At this Spotcoat laughed right out. Now how could anybody 50 big and clumsy catch fish or ani- mals or birds?" he demanded.
 T don't know" replied Peter. But any one with such a surprising mouth as that might be expected to do surprising things. What does he live on anyway"
 Grass and water plants" re- piled Spotcoat. Hes big and home ly and clumsy, but really he is very good-natured"

Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of lily.

Editor Journal of the American
 Medical Association and of lily. geia, the Health Magazine
 In recent textbook on the diag- 1osis of disease, at least twelve
 large pages were occupied with the discussion of causes of head
 ache. The causes are apparently
 direct, such as those due to the absorption of poisons due to changes
 in the circulation and those due
 to conditions in the tissues imme- diately surrounding the brain. or | reflex causes related to disturb ances far removed in the body from the brain itself
 Among the most constant causes of headache are difficulties of vision, particularly eyestrain. In
 headache from eyestrain, the pain may develop slowly or rapidly. and may occur in any part of the head. When one eye is more affected than the other, the distribution of the pain may be related to that fact. Among the most frequent causes of headache resulting from eye strain is astigmatism or farsight- cdness, but weaknesses of the eye muscles may result in difficulties of accommodation and subsequent headache. A competent specialist in diseases of the eye may deter mine the difficulties of accommo- dalton and by prescribing of prop CT glasses overcome the symptom.
 Sometimes the headache result ing from eyestrain Is reflex headache and is associated with symptoms elsewhere in the body, also brought about by the diff culty with the eyes. The patient l may be nauseated: overtired. mentally or physically. of contin- ually disturbed.
 It is obviously not wise policy | to attempt to relieve such head aches by the giving of sedative or narcotic drugs. Recently. aspirin has become the mainstay of a large number of people who pur- chase headache cure rather than attempt to find out the cause of the headache and to remove 1t.
 In many instances proper per sonal hygiene. including a simple and we'll balanced diet. proper regulation of the bowels and a proper relationship of outdoor ex- ercise and rest, will do much to completely eliminate headaches, particularly if 1t has been deter mined that the headaches do not result from an ocular defect.

CATCH LARGE SHARK
OFF SLAUGHTER BEACH

Perhaps the largest shark ever
seen in this vicinity was captured,
after a long struggle, by Clarence
Plummer, William Pierce and Henry
Ingram, off Slaughter Beach last
week. The three men went out to
catch sharks near the coral beds
about one mile and half off
Slaughter Beach, when, baited with
a large chunk of shark meat, their
heavy hook on the end of trace
chain was grabbed by shark so
enormous and heavy that the three
men holding the rope trying to drag
it in were pulled backwards for
three miles in their power boat.
After a long struggle, the shark
was conquered, and its head lugged
on the boat. The men killed it by
knocking it in the head with
hatchet, and then managed to haul
the rest of the body on board.
This shark weighed 500 pounds,
and was nine feet, six incnes long,
and five feet, six inches in "ircum-
Before the body was taken away by
a farmer to be used for fertilizer,
it's huge jaws were chopped out and
brought to Milford. where they are
being dressed, to be hepS on account
of their enormity. There are SIX
circular rows of teeth to the lower
jaw and five to the upper.
