starting on Pape's Diapepsin and
my trouble is all gone. The tablets
are pleasant to chew and sure get
results quickly"
Pape's Diapepsin is the best thing
yet discovered to end digestive
worries, give tone to a disordered
stomach. increase appetite, make
digestion vigorous and complete. It's
success in so many cases where every
thing else has failed, proves that.

pleasant tablets. If you prefer to try

at the man. his eyes, half closed, we're
resting on an old-fashioned crystal
chandelier which hung low over the
center table. Since you saw your un-

In the museum for at least half an
hour"
Just about" Salveter obviously
could not understand Vance's indiffer-
ent attitude. The fact is ! got inter-
ested in a papyrus we picked up last
Winter and tried to work out few of
the words that stumped me. There
we're the words ankhet. wash and tema
that I couldn't translate"
Vance frowned slightly; then his eye
brows lifted.
"Ankhet wash tema :"
He iterated the words slowly. "Was the
ankhet written with or without a de-
terminative?"
Salveter did not answer at once
with the aninal-sktn determine
tive" he said presently.
And was the next word really wash
and not was?"
Again he hesitated, and looked I'M
easily at Vance.
"It was wash, think. And
tema was written with double fail"
mot the sledge ideogram, Ell? I. .
Now, that's most interestin'.. And dur
ing your linguistic throes your uncle
walked in"
Yes, I was sitting at the little desk
table by the obelisk when Uncle Ben
opened the door. l heard him say
something to Brush, and / got up to
greet him. It was rather dark, and
he didn't see me till he'd reached the
floor Of the museum"

. smile more deadly than any contor-
ton of anger could have been.
II don't like your language, Mr.. SAL
veter," he said slowly.
"Oh, don't you'll" The man sprang
up, his fists clenched, and swung
viciously. Vance. however, stepped back
with the quickness of a cat. and caught
the other by the wrist. Then he made
a swift pivotal movement to the right,
and Salveter's pinoned arm was twisted
upward behind his shoulder blades.
With an involuntary cry of pain, the
man fell to his knees. Il recalled the
way in which Vance had saved Mark
ham from an attack in the district at
torneys office at the close Of the Ben
son murder case.) Heath and 1ennes-
toned them away with his free hand.
IT can manage this impetuous gen.
tleman," he said. Then ne lifted Sal
veter to his feet and showed him back
into his chair. "a little lesson in man
ners," he remarked pleasantly. And
now you will please be civil and answer
my questions, or I'll be compelled to
have you--and Mrs. Bliss-arrested for
conspiring to murder Mr.. Kyle"
Salveter was completely subdued. He
looked at his antagonist in ludicrous
words seemed to seep into his aston
ished brain.
Mrs. Bliss? She had nothing to
do with it, tell you'll" His tone, though
highly animated, was respectful. IF it'll
save her from any suspicion. I'll confess
to the crime.
No need for any such heroisrn"
Vance had resumed his seat and was
again smoking calmly. But you might

my duty to keep an eye on things"
Vance nodded understandingly.
What time did you enter the mu-
scum this morning."
SalveteT hesitated. Then throwing
his head back he looked challengingly
at Vance.
Il left the house a little after 8.

About half-past nine?"
THAT would be about right"
And no one saw you re-enter the
house?"
Il hardly think so. In any event,
didn't see any cne."
Vance gazed at him languidly.
Suppose you finish the recital.
If you don't care to, I'll finish it for
you"
"You won't have to-" Salveter tossed
his cigarette into a cloisonne dish on
the table and drew himself resolutely to

And then?"
II knew he wanted TO inspect the
new treasures, so I ran along. Went to

''Your uncle seemed in normal good

About as usual-a bit grouchy, per-

forenoons. But that didn't mean any

You left the museum Immediately

"At once. I hadn't realized I'd been
so long fussing over the papyrus, and
hurried away. Another thing: / knew
he'd come to see Dr. Bliss on a pretty
important matter, and didn't want to
be in the way"
Vance nodded, but gave no indica-
ton whether or not he unreServedly &C
cepted the others statements. He sat
smoking lazily, his eyes impassive and
mild.

BONDS SLUGGISH,
WITH PRICES FIRM
Thin Market Develops for
Prime RaiIS-VoIume on
Par With Saturday.
BY DONALD c. BOLLES.
Associated Press Financial Writer.


NEW YORK, July 14.-Dull trading
marked the opening of a new weeks
activity in the listed bond market, and
the sluggishneSs Of price movement was
in marked contrast with the strength
displayed last week. It was tinged with
some rregularity, but best grade issues
were steady to firm for the most part.
A thin market developed in prime
railroad bonds whose strong climb pro-
vtded the leadership for the forward
step take by fixed income bearing se-
change last week. There was some
profit taking, but prices of the group
were generally steady with little incli-
nation to rise in evidence. While lien
issues idled, interest conferred principal
ly in convertible issues which were in
demand at higher prices as equity
issues for which they are exchangeable
made a good showing on the big board.
The volume of trading was about on
par with the quiet session of Satur-
day.
Heavy trading developed in Atchison
convertible 412s, which were pushed up
more than a point, and Baltimore &
Ohio 4l2s, st. Paul adjustment IS and
Chicago e. Northwestern 5As showed
rising tendencies to a lesser degree.
Among investment issues Baltimore e.
Ohio LIST SIS sold near the years top,
and thin trading in Erie general As,
Missouri Pacific 5s, Grand Trunk
Canada IS, Wabash AIS and Western
Maryland As held these on an upward
course.
Canadian National Railway Alas,
Chesapeake Corporation SIS, Rock Island
Is, Great Northern rs, Nickel Plate 412s,
Southern Railway Is, were among the
more active bonds and were virtually
unchanged.
A mixed movement took place in util-
ity issues, with Consolidated Gas 51as
and Columbia Gas & Electric IS cas-
ing on few sales, while American tele-
phone SIS and Pacific Gas & Electric
IS held firm.
