 We walked to the post box, depos- tied our letters, came back to the door of the apartment building be- fore she spoke again, and I knew she was deep in the problem pre- sented by the odd conduct of the fourth floor lodger.
 Our job isn't finished by any means" she said. and spoke no more until we were safely in my bedroom again.
 Its lead ?pipe cinch." she finally observed, as We were getting into Baker has something to do with this business of the masked dancer and also that she is a close associate of Jack Leelie. The matter of the dancer need not bother us now that we have satisfied ourselves that Mary is not the mysterious masked beauty. But the fact that Jack Leslie and Mrs. Baker are close is something which will bear watching. I think you know why
 She looked at me questioningly, and I realized that she wished the bolstering of my opinon. l told my self that she must, indeed, be shaken by the failure of her hunch concern ing Mary if she were appealing to any one for approval of a decision of hers.
 "Yes,I do." I said earnestly. 'It is because you and I both fear that Mrs. Baker is the medium through which Jack Leslie's acquaintance with Mary is being carried on.'
 Gall it the wooing of Mary" Lillian said grimly, and you'll have the correct name for the thing"

The Wooing of Mary Proceeds
 Through a Go-Between

In my astonishment at Mrs Bakers gesture toward her throat I almost forgot the errand upon which Lillian and I were supposed to be bound. In fact. had taken a step toward her rapidly retreating figure when by friends hand clutched, my arm and l promptly swung back to her side and walked with her to the front door. As I opened it Lillian spoke in a voice pitched high above her usual tones, and I know that she meant Mrs. Baker to hear her words.
 Its ridiculous for two of us to be going out with these letters" she said. Give me yours and I'll run to the post box with all of them"
 At the same instant she peremp- torily beckoned me forward, and I raised my own voice in recognition of the cue she had given.
 T want a bit Of air" I told her. It's stifiing in here"
 "Oh. All right then" she said. Come on"
 The street door closed behind us and she turned to me with a com mandatory pat upon the arm.
 You played that beautifully" she said. "Of course, you know why I did it. I wanted her to think We were absorbed in our own affairs and had paid no attention to her queer behavior. But what do you make of that gesture of hers toward her throat?"
 That she had lost her voice, ] suppose" I returned.
 Lillian nodded.
 Perhaps she had-from fright at seeing us,' she returned. There's one thing certain-the woman was so scared she was swallowing her

Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN

Editor Journal Of the American
 Medical Association and Of Hygeia, the Health Magazine.
 The remains of sewers in the cit.e- of the Assyrians, built in the year 900 B. C., indicate that the disposal of waste has always played an inn portant part in the life of man.
 Without any apparent knowledge of bacterial infection. the ancients nevertheless saw the necessity of proper removal of such wastes for continued physical existence. How ever. sanitary engineering as known today is of recent origin.
 Dampness and Fevc:
 A special bulletin on the snb ject. prepared by the department of health of Newark, x. l., points out that in 1864 at least 1S,OoO people lived in damp basement; in New York city without proper means for disposal of wastes in fact, in places where sewage from other places scepcd into these homes. During 8 period of two weeks in- vestigators found 1900 unreported eases of typhus fever,
 Today. as result bf modern plumbing, any place may be kept clean and dry and waste disposed of without the slightest possibility of contamination to the surround ings. Practically every commit nifty now has a sanitary plumbing code which describes methods by which food and body waste are to be removed.
 Modern Problems
 The building of vast apartment houses and sIsyscrapers has brought about other problems of plumbing and water pressure. in the solution of which engineers Of all types have combined for promoting human health.
 The city Of Chicago last year had fewer than 900 cases of typhoid fever and fewer than 20 deaths from this dcase. IT tho rate prevail ing 90 years ago still persisted, there might have been expected S0,0OO to 4o,oo0 cases If this disorder.
 The diminishing rate has been the result of providing proper water supply Of proper disposal of sewage, and constant attention 10 cleanliness, particularly Of milk, and finally to some extent of the use Of anti-ty- phoid vaccination in the presence of known cases of the disease.

It Flies Tail First

Tn Germany they have invented an airplane that goes ahead, appar- ently, stern first The new machine resembles, in a way, the Roland" aircraft of the U. s. of some seven teen years ago. Although the gen. eral outline of the recently made plane isn't new there are several claims made that place it in class by itself for safety in landing. The chassis is low and three wheeled. The appearance, in flying, is odd with the tail steering gear so far in advance Trial spins have been successful to such a degree that un- usual interest is now taken in what was at first considered merely sort of freak affair.

Thursday, around noon, young Kramer Ball took an unintentional header into the Narrows close by the gangway of the Allen machine shop. Dan Sutphen, up by the U. s.

He saw the commotion of the water, only, for a few brief seconds, and then he made out the lad beneath the sur face. With the assistance of Bob Allen the boy was soon on dryfoot- ing and, outside of bit of fright and sousing, was all right.

Bad Legislation
 For Seufert
BAD LEGISLATION FOR sEUFERT

F. A. Seufert of The Dalles, Ore
 gon, has gone out of the salmon can
 nery business. Years ago Seufert
 purchased a rocky point of land
 near The Dalles. People wondered
 what any one should want with
 land so apparently worthless. The whole acreage was just hard black rock. The Columbia River flowed by the point of rock in foamy cas- cades and boiling current. Many times Seufert had seen the Indians stand down at the waters edge and spear salmon working slowly up stream against the flood. He bought the rocky point and about halfway of it's length he blasted and cut a canal through. In this canal he erected a big fish wheel. Near | the wheel he built a cannery. Out | of the cannery he cleared fortune. | He has quit the canning of salmon because the Oregon courts have up- held the validity of the initiative law abolishing fish wheels on the upper Columbia The fish wheel is a mighty efficient fish killer if in a favorable fish run. Seufert's can al was so nicely located that it was estimtaed one time 25Ge of als sal [ mon, heading for the spawning beds farther on. tried to pass through it The wheel caught 9O&6 of them and the cannery waxed fat. The fish wheel is doomed Traps next.

A Mysterious Blow-up

Thursday afternoon Neil Mac Gregor had a, small fire burning across from his Show House where he was disposing of some light refuse. A number of young sters were playing around the blaze Suddenly there was an explosion, throwing the small lads down and scattering hot coals and cinders around in bomb-like fashion. There was some asphalt pieces in the re- fuse and this, with the rain water and the heat probably generated steam pressure sufficient to create the disturbance. Neils boy and young Wikan were slightly burnt.

 Matters of correspondence rela- tive to former club business.
 Regular club business was taken up promptly at the close of the din- ing hour, and after going through the routine readings, by F. R. Hay on, Secretary, the correspondence on hand was acted on. Most of this had a bearing on the herring con- troversy. The proposed bill of Dan Sutherland was read and approved and it was decided, in further ac- -ion On the matter, to submit with he approval, the former resolutions of the club.
 The herring and fertilizer situa- ion was the cause of considerable attention. Several members expres- sing themselves pretty plainly.

Fisheries of Alaska
 Show Improvement

Regardless of anything MT. Suth-
 erland may say, the fisheries of Alas
 ka as administered under authority
 given by the White Bill have shown a marked improvement over their previous condition From every side has come praise of the results
 (Har! HarD Nearly everyone reads that widely circulated journ- al, The Saturday Evening Post. and so nearly everyone has read what Hal Evarts, a conservationist and journalist of worldwide note had to say concerning the Alaska fisher ies. He spoke with authority. for he had seen before he had believed.
 After careful reading of the law l fail to find where it is laid down as one of the duties of the Federal Government to build up the popu- lation of Alaska. Nevertheless, if through the wise administration of the fisheries prosperity of an abid- ing character is brought to Alaska a contribution of greater value than mere increase of population will havebeen made Furthermore, pop- ulation springs from prosperity.
 As the time goes on and present episodes become history, I am cer- tain that among the monuments which mark the career of Herbert Hoover will be found one inscribed to the man who saved the salmon fisheries of Representative Arthur M, Free, 69th Congress, Mar. 3, 1927.
 What has the champion of the packers of California to say abont Ine improvement or the salmon fish cries of today over that of previous years under the all-wise, and other wise administration of the Bureau of Fisheries? What would Hal Evarts write of the administration of our fisheries did he write. of them now? If population springs from how much increase in population can Alaska hope for un- der the prosperit yof the past sum- ner? The monument suggested for Herbert Hoover would be wasted on his grave, better hung about his neck, and 'twould be waste of good marble at that, say the fishermen

 of Seattle, in this matter, were talk
 en as expressing the idea of the
 local club and they were so record
 ed. Considered that the proposed change in the inspection laws would
 practically put the fishing boat out of business.
 The committee on advertising was thought to be rather tardy, and somewhat behind in reporting what ground had been covered. Made a part of the record that some inn mediate action be taken.
 The local water front dredging matter was under discussion for some time. Regarded as essential that a digest of the resolutions be made and signatures obtained from all boatmen; that sliding scale subscription be adopted to aid in bringing the dredging needs before proper Government Authorities Thought that assistance would be given by the steamship companies.
 There was some talk bearing on the handling of mail out of local post office. This referred, particu- larly to the situation Wednesday | night wherein the closing of the Narrows shut out the S g. Alaska from calling. Dinner was willing to take mail to WrangeH, but would assume no responsibility therefore. The post master, Mr. Otness, was ad- Eised that the transportation of mail by any othor than regularly U. s. M carriers would 5hrow the liability on his shoulders n case of loss.

Wants Governmet To
 Make Further Study

Says information lacking on sub- ject and asks for scientific study
 After a detailed discussion of gen. eral phases of the herring bait sit uatiOn today, the Chamber of Com merce by unanimous vote adopt ed a resolution urging a scientific investigation of the herring ques- tion by the U. s. Bureau of Fisher ies. The resolution, which was draft ed by the Executive Committed was substituted for one adopted several weeks ago by the Petersburg Com mercial Club and forwarded here for similar action.
 While the discussion developed there were several members who favored adoption of the Petersburg program, after comparison of the two resolutions, it was agreed that the local program probably was best fitted for the situation and the vote for it's adoption was without dissent.
 Gives Matter Study
 Reciting that the attention of the Chamber had been called by the Pe- tersburg Club to 'the imminent dan ger to the halibut and salmon indus try arising from the use of herring in the manufacture of fertilizer and oil' the resolution adopted said
