Funny, too, the amazing upS-and-
downs of the show business. Out
upon the road during the autumn
months went a music revue titled
"Humpty Dumpty". It had q great
fall somewhere in the Pittsburgh
area, folded up and seemed like a
final financial blow to the producers,
Schwab and DeSylva. But they
made changes in the cast, went into
a huddle, kept the scenery and cos
tunes and tried to decide on q new
name. Everyone concerned agreed
to take a chance. Which gave
them a cue. The revue was titled
Take Chance. And it's a sure
fire hit. So what? ..

that they elaborated on a play,

serious fellow, also have place in
this parade.
My own particular favorite tale
concerning Fowler deals with an oc-
casion when he was a young reporter
in search Of a Job. A critical city
editor sized him up and said: Young
man, if you are to be a newspaper
man you should combine the char
acteriStics of Horace Greeley. North

Fowler hooded his agreement
and went away. The next morning
he appeared wearing q Horace Gree

stick, and a rube straw hat. The
editor, as might be expected, shouted
for smelling salts.

The Hunt Organized.

Meanwhile, Neil Mcmahon had
been filing in the blank spaces on
4 tag known in the Department al
u. F. No. 95, which is placed on
the wrist or great toe of all dead
bodies in homicide cases.
Finally, the body was carried
out to a patrol wagon, waiting to
carry it downtown, and Doctor
Multooler proposed at once to fol-
low it.
"When can I have your final re-
port?" asked Thatcher Colt, a. the
doctor was departing.
"Some time before morning.
Shall l send it to you and not to
the District Attorney"
"Please send it to my office at
Headquarters. I shall be waiting
for it,"
The Assistant Medical Examiner
looked a little bewildcred. but
bowed and departed.
We heard the two cars snortine
and driving off down the narrow
descent of Peddler's Road, while
Thatcher Colt and ! stood in the
kitchen and waited for reports.
Already the hunt was organized,
with that skilful military precision
which Thatcher Colt had brought
into the Department. Just as the
woods were being secured, 50

being gone over. Some Of the
men were making notes Of the sur

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Chemical Shave

In 1917 when was in the army we
used to buy a paste at the company
store which was as good as shave,
but I don't know the name Of it. 4.
(P. PD
Answer-A formula for such de-
pilatory paste is as follows:
Barium Sulphid ............ 2 drains
Zinc oxid ................. 3 drains
CornStarch ................. 3 drains
For use, moisten with enough wa
ter to make paste, smear on the
beard, let it remain a few minutes,
and then wash it off before the skin
becomes irritated. This dissolves the
hairs. Like shaving, it tends to make
the hairs grow coarser. do not

Changing His Label
New York Tines

Senator Norbeck of South Dakota
describes himself in the Congress
sional Directory as Roosevelt Re-
publican In the desire to avoid
ambiguity he announces that he is
going to change the description to
Theodore Roosevelt Republican"
Thus he will discriminate himself
from the Progressive Republicans
who might be temporarily classified
as Franklin D. Roosevelt Repub-
leans Neither the first nor the
second choice of Mr.. Norbeck, trying
to find his exact political location,
means what he takes it to mean.
Theodore Roosevelt refused a second
nomination by the Progressives. He
took the stump for Governor Hughes.
II he had lived till 1920, it is at least
probable that he would have got the
Republican nomination for president.
He said in 1918 that if the Repub-
lican party wanted him and he could
advance the ideals for which he
Stood he would be candidate. He
would have got the nomination if he
could. He had come back to the old
home. He was regular Republican.
such Mr.. Norbeck unconsciously
writes himself down.
The curse of the Republican party,
long before the depression, was its
division into two wings. Nothing
now indicates return to conference
and unity. The rush Of millions of
Republicans into the Democratic
ranks makes the prospect of reor-
ganization look distant; and for
some time the task for thoughtful
men in both parties is to cooperate
in the indispensable duty of reducing
federal expenditures, balancing the
budget, defeating all proposals Of un-
sound finance and federal bounties
to a class. When the United States
government is once more going

can be more actively resumed.

On the contrary, there is cause for
encouragement in the fact that these

are still big enough to free them

Impossible, Mr. Com
missioner? The state of the body
tells ME it has not been dead more
than forty-eight hours, at the ut
most"
Thatcher Colt made no reply,
but his sombre eyes, staring into
space, seemed to be contemplating
some internal mystery that puz-
zled and Mortified him.
He remained there, while a de-
tective, at his orders, scraped the
refuse from under the dead girls
finger-nails and deposited it in
: separate envelopes, each marked
to identify the finger and hand
from which it had been taken. This
procedure, a piece Of modern po-
lice technique, has helped in the
solution of many battling crimes,
but in no case did it play a more
cratic part than in the curious
mystery in which we were now en-
tangled. Then Sergeant Wickes,
from the Statistical and Criminal
Identification Bureau, linked the
dead girls finger tips and took the
black impression of her whorls
and looms.
