Certainly. Therefore, why should
question about SO obviously cor

make you uneasy?"
ME uneasy?" Mannix, with con-
Siderable effort, produced grin.
I'm just wondering what you got in
your mind, asking me about my
private affairs"
"I'll tell you Miss Odell was muir
dered at about midnight Monday.
No one came or went through the
front door of the house, and the
side door was locked.
THE only way any one could
have entered her apartment was by
way of Apartment Q; and nobody
who knew Miss Odell ever visited

At these words ManniX leaned
over the table, grasping the edge of
II with both hands for support. His
eyes were wide and his sensual lips
hung open.
But it was not fear that one read
in his attitude; it was sheer amaze
1nent.
He sat for a moment staring at
Vance, stunned and incredulous.
That's what you think, is it? No
one could've got in or out except by
Apartment 2, because the side door
was .locked?"
He gave a short, vicious laugh.
''If that side door didn't happen to

come to the police with this highly
important information?"

"An exigent course" commented
Markham with open disgust. But
you nevertheless suggested to me,

Miss Odell."
Sure I did. Didn't that go to

Did you see any one else that
night in the halls or alleyway?"
"Nobody-absolutely nobody"
Did you hear any one in the

Didn't hear a thing" Mannix
shook his head emphatically.

Positively. I looked at my watch.

acid.

Rheumatism is easier to avoid
than to cure, states well-known
authority. We are advised to dress
warmly, keep the feet dry, avoid
exposure, and above all, drink
plenty of good water and avoid eat
ing sweets of all kind.
Rheumatism is caused by body
waste and acids resulting from food
fermentation. 1t 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 a means of freeing the blood
of this impurity. 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 elm
mate this waste and acids, which
keeps accommodating and circulating
through the system, eventually set
ting 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 Jad Salts; put a table
Sponoful in a glass of water and
drink before breakfast each morn
ing for week. This is helpful to
neutralize acidity, remove the waste
matter, also to stimulate the kid
neys, thus often Kidding the blood
of rheumatic poison.

made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and is used with excellent results

NICARAGUA
REBELS
AIDED

BY international News Service
MANAGUA, Jan. 4.-United
States marines con fnu d
preparations today for an of
fensive against Ell Chipote.
Marine airplanes have reported
that the SANDING forces are
concentrating there.
Marines Concentrate
The entire force of marines
and constabulary will concentrate
upon Ell Chipote, which is
strongly fortified mountain fort,
about eighteen miles from here.
See Aid From Liberals
Charges that the SANDING rebels
are receiving aid from the Nicara-
guam liberals again came to the
fore today. The newspaper La
Prensa commented at length on the
charges. pointing out that the re-
ports have been reinforced by the
fact that the Honduran minister
has sent a protest to the Nicara-
guam government.
This protest. the newspaper said,
was against the activities Of the
political chief of Chinandega. APP
pointed by General Moncada,
liberal candidate for president, and
objected to this officials issuance
OF sailing orders to unrecognized
Honduran ports from which it is
easy to reach the zone at present
controlled by SANDING.
Await New Troops
The resumption Of the marine at
tack awaits the arrival Of reinforce
ments and aerial preparations for
an attack.
Observers here are inclined to
doubt whether SANDING will elect to
give battle at Ell Chipote, since he
had previously sworn to hold Qualali
but retreated once the attack was
opened. Sandino's present position
is strong but it is believed by many
that he will prefer guerilla war
fare, to a stand against probably
superior forces.

Information has just come out
that Miss Elder was served with
a warrant in Atlanta, Ca, On
December 20 last, as her train
stopped for q few minutes In the
station there.
Warrant Served
The warrant was served on Miss
Elder in Atlanta by Sheriff J.. L.
Richard, of Rabun county, Georgia,
a mountain country Of which Clay
ton is the county seat. He said
the warrant was based on an in.
dictment returned by the Rabun
county grand jury in 1925 when
Ruth, then the wife Of a school
teacher named Moody. her first
husband, lived in Clayton.
Sheriff Richard expressed dis
taste at having been forced to serve
the warrant, saying Ruth left the
community after the warrant had
been returned and the charge APP
parently permitted to rest. But
when certain persons, whom he did
not name, learned that the young
woman, who achieved international
fame by almost hopping the At
lantic Ocean in her plane, The
American Girl, learned that she
was to pass through Georgia, they
resurrected the charge and invoked
his duty as sheriff to arrest her.
