refreshing as mountain air.
The efficacy of Vapex has been tested
time and time again. But Vapex never had
surer proof of its worth than during the

Auenza was raging in England, but the men
who were working with the ingredients

 ''No!" He swung round towards her, checking her in mid-word. No don't tell me who you are. You see, if the eye treatment fails and lose my sight, it's-it's better for me not to be able to remember you at all, except as a voice. A very wonderful voice.
 And if you're cured?" she whis- pered.
 Then I'll find you. I'll-I'll ad- vertise for you. We'll have a secret code. I'll advertise-'To the Ivory Rose. Come home Look"

NEW N. P. TRAIN
 VERY POPULAR,
 SAYS K. K. KATz
The Alaskan Named for Territory, Makes Hit
 with Travellers

'The Alaskan" the Northern Pa- cific's crack Seattle Chicago train named for this Territory, is prov ing very popular and meeting all expectations of the company, de- clared Karl K Katz, it's Alaska representative who is making his regular fall visit covering all towns from Ketchikan to Fairbanks. Many Alaskans have chosen this train in making eastern trips, and it is hoped tha t those contemplating trips outside this winter will help in swelling it's popularity, he said
 The name of the srain is not the only publicity it gives to the Ter ritory, MT. Katz pointed out. Its dining car service is featuring Alas ka scenery on it's menu covers. These have Autographed copies of some of Sidney Lawrence's best known paintings, showing Alaska scenery and objects of interest of native handicraft.
 MT, Katz expressed his apprecia- tion for the support that Alaska has given him, enabling him to make a showing and convince of ficials of the company that it is Justified in having representation on the ground in the Territory. "Nothing that the folks of Alaska can ask will be too much for me to attempt to do for them outside and it is my sincere wish to be of real service to them," he said

ready half blind, stirred her so Fdeeply? She had felt drawn inex- orably to him in spite of herself, in spite of what she had thought was undying love for the man for whom she was waiting. She felt all most afraid as she looked out over the dark sea. What did it all mean?
 You clever kid Oh, you clever clever kid!'
 She started violently and turned The man for whom she had waited in vain was bending over her, his hands were on her shoulders, his young face was close to hers.
 Come along, now, I'm going to walk you briskly up the bank and down again. Can't have you catch ing chill even in the good cause of meeting me"
 He had pulled her to her feet. He was shorter by some inches than the man who had walked unfalter- ingly into the dusk. and she realized it as she stood now looking levelly into his eyes. Remembered, also, that as a child she had said she would never marry short man .
 "Hallie!" He shook her, not too gently. Wake up! You're staring at me without seeing me. Poor kid, you've been bored into a sort of comal What about running in town and seeing a show?"
 But he was mistaken-she was seeing him very clearly in spite of the remoteness of her thought; and for some reason she was seeing him as though he were stranger. Copyright, 1930, by Roy Vickers)

 Then surely I mustn't take away your luck?"
 "Luck!' He laughed shortly. 'I've lost my time, I've lost my money I'm losing my sight-no, the ivory rose isn't supposed to bring luck, or ill-luck either, until" "Until?"
 Until it's given by man to a woman. To the woman. Then it brings them both-heaven.
 She watched him as he moved away along the cliff-path. The twi- light seemed to reach forward and take him to itself; she too, had a superstitious streak and the wait ing darkness seemed to her a bad omen.
 She shivered.
 Then a stone slipped away under his foot and she stifled a cry; but he passed steadily on An instant later he had rounded bend, and she could see nothing but the heavy shadows of the cliff. If | Why had this strange man, al-

 T can't see you clearly-no."
 The girl blushed beautifully. He had told her what she had just not had the courage to ask. She felt a keen disappointment that he could not see her clearly, and then an immense flood of pity for him.
 T can see fairly well in a shaded room" he was explaining in mat ter of fact way Sometimes if one shaft of light falls on face, can see it as well as ever But out here in the air I have to wear these dark glasses and that obScures everything; even-the sunset"
 She believed he had been going to say "even you" and she clasped her hands tightly in her lap.
 She was amazed at herself. What was she doing? What was she thinking? This was only chance encounter with a man whose name she didn't even know She had been waiting for another man of an utterly different type-the man she loved. She repeated it firmly to herself-the man she loved and was going to marry. Well, she had been waiting for him rather impatiently because he was so inexcusably late Then this stranger had come uncertainty into the shelter. And he had asked her if he might smoke-or perhaps she had spoken to him first. She couldn't remember quite how the conversation had started because so much, so wonderfully much, had been said.
 q can see that you are slender and fairly tall and that you move rather slowly he told her. And that is about all Perhaps it is be- cause l can see so little of you that I feel I should know your voice again the moment I heard it. You get to know voices. I shall never forget yours.
 She, felt as breathless as if she had come running up the face of the cliff.
 Then at our next meeting" she said bravely, T must be the first to speak"
 He had hoisted himself to his feet and stood now as though he looked out over the sea. And she, her head flung back, studied him intently.
 What a big manl And yet he was not outlandishly tall and not burly, either. He managed his height and his weight perfectly even the trouble with his sight did not make him clumsy.
 She liked too, his bronzed skin and his untidy brown hair. She was quite sure his eyes were gray. And there was something in his way of suddenly smiling and turn ing his head that stirred her pro- foundly. Had she not been al- ready in love and pledged to marry, she could have dreamed that she loved this man.
 Please tell me your name she ventured.
 He answered her almost absently.
 "Grannock, Saxley Grannock." ."
 She turned the name over in her mind She had come to this little village on Long Island because her lover lived here She had stayed here for nearly three. weeks and had grown to know most of the residents by sight, but Saxley Gran mock she had never seen until this evening.
 She gazed at him, a dozen ques- tions on her lips. Where did he come from? Who was he, when he wasn't carrying strange dreams into stranged lands?
 Apparently one could tell him all manner of intimate things, things never revealed to the man one loved, and receive in exchange

cause Of the absence Of q wit

Miss Helen l.. Schneider, pri-
vate secretary to G. Bryan Pitts,
was not in court this morning
when her name was called. She
testified yesterday at great length
identifying certain papers and
records she had left on a table
In the offices Of the Smith Com
pany, in New York, on the eve
ming that the offices are alleged
to have been invaded by Depart
ment of Justice agents under the
guise of fire insurance inspectors.
Justice William Hitz, before
whom the hearing is being held.
asked that Miss Schneider be
recalled to the witness stand
when the morning session began.
but there was no indication of
the nature of the additional in
formation he wished to obtain
from her.
Burned the Records
The hearing was delayed yester-
day when court recessed to allow
a former employe of G. Bryan
Pitts to testify how he burned
records of the Hamilton Hotel
Corporation in December, 1928, at
Pitts request.
John Farquhar, the .employe,
was Pitts private secretary at
the time and while attending

He was then allowed to testify
out of order by agreement Of
counsel and the jury was excused
while his testimony was recorded.
He declared that at the beheSt
of his employer and another Of
the defendants he went to the
jefferson Apartments and was led
to the small vault in the hotel
basement where he was shown
the records to be destroyed. He
burned the records with the aid
Of two other employees, he said.
Jury Papers Secret
It is still undecided whether or
not members of the Grand Jury
which returned the indictment
against the officials will be al
lowed to testify in the proceed
ings. Hitherto. happenings in the
Grand Jury room have been con-
sidered Sacredly secret, but it is
now claimed that the defendants
in the action have been figura-
lively compelled to give evidence
against themselves because they
were indicted on the strength OF
information stolen from their own
files by Department Of Justice
agents.
Defense counsel claim that this
question is vital to the rights of
the defendants and its truth can
only be ascertained by having the
Grand Jury members themselves
testify.
