"Are you MT Link?" he asked. My name is Bannister and I've a note here from Chief Henley"
 A swift change of expression- was it alarm or something stronger ?-came over the clerks face. "Yes I'm MT Link" he, ad- mitted. You say Chief Henley sent you?"
 Bannister presented the envelope containing the note. It had been scrawled with a pen and was noth- ing more than a request that MT Bannister, the bearer, be permit ed to see the rooms Tracy King had occupied in the hotel.
 "Why-why, yes, certainly" the clerk agreed quickly. "I'll take you up myself. If you'll just wait a moment while get someone to take charge of the desk"
 He disappeared. The telephone operator, a pretty girl whose Irish ancestry was unmistakable. had been watching Bannister with open interest. Now she kept her eyes averted, became elaborately pre- occupied with her switchboard.
 Doesn't want to talk" Bannis- ter decided. He turned his back on her and continued to inspect the large room.
 Link was back shortly, a younger man beside him. The newcomer stepped behind the desk. Link said, Now MT Ban nister-" in the tone he might have used with a prospective hotel tennant, and led the way to the elevator.
 Neither spoke during the ascent. Bannister thought that the uni raisin sauce, milk, coffee. formed youth who operated the elevator displayed considerable in terest as they stepped out on the third floor and that he fingered t9 see which direction they Woulu take. Then the sliding door closed and the elevator was on its way. Side by side the two men moved down the corridor. Evidently MI Link was not overly experienced in the ways of police departments: and detectives. You're special investigator, are you? MT. Bann1s- ter ?" he asked "Is that why you're here?" ,.
 Bannister said, "yes," and felt that he was not misrepresenting the facts. r.
 "Its terrible thing MT Kings death," the hotel clerk went on. "Nothing like it has ever hap nened since I've ben here. It's ben a shock to everyone = the guests, the help, everyope! Ihey all knew MT King. He was always so pleasant. Such a fine looking uonpC man.
 "It was you who found him. wasn't it?" Canister asked.
 "Yes. MT Drhgan and I. He didn't come back to the theater and MT Drugan came to find out what was the matter. When he knocked and couldn't get an an- swer he came downstairs and we went back together ..
 q suppose the police are sure IL couldn't have suicide?"
 "Oh, impossible! The coroner said that was out of the question because there was no powder burns-and then there. wasn't any gun. No, it, couldn't have been suicide. Besides MT, King had no reason to do such thing"
 "I wonder" said Bannister.. A moment later he asked, "isn't there anyone from headquarters here now?"
 "Not now" Link. said with a shake of his head. There were half a dozen here last night, The Chief, too. This morning there were two men-detectives = out, asking questions of the servants and some of the tenants. I'm afraid they didn't learn much. If

I've all do a lot of it but since more women. than men think intensely about themselves, it in dicates that they are better posers. Furthermore women have to do more to keep up appearances, and posing is the effort to put up a front to the world which we hope it will believe, but which we know is not quite the real thing. Further more, the one profession in which women have exceeded men is in acting. which indicates they pos sess more natural talents than men for doing an artistic job of posing.

For Rcstful Sleep Lie Flat on Back
 Relaxation is absolutely neces- sary to healthful, rcstful sleep.
 When you get in bed, try to relax completely before sleep comes to you. One of the best ways to erase lines and wrinkles around the eyes and mouth is to get eight hours of restful sleep.
 When you get in bed, lie flat on your back, without a pillow, with your arms at your sides. Breath deeply but do not count your breath or he conscious of it. If worries of the day persist in com ing into your mind. think of yards and yards Of black velvet or some other soft. rich but dark fabric. Youll find that relaxation will come sooner that way. Counting sheep makes your mind work and that's exactly what you don't want.

ARE YOU SURE YOU HAVE
 THINGS REGULATED?

A man breathes from fifteen to twenty times a minute. Prevent him from breathing for three or four minutes and he will probably break the habit and never breathe any more at all. But it isn't worth while stopping his breathing for half a minute; makes no difference at all if he skips eight or ten breaths now and then. That won't disturb his metabolism seriously. Immediately following the inter- ruption his breathing will auto matically increase in the rate and depth and two or three minutes later he will have caught up with his regular schedule.
 We'll, now, you almanac-educated folks will not understand this, but I'm telling you and no physician or physiologist or health authority will venture to contradict the as- sertion, that the action of the bowel is as automatically controlled or regulated as is the breathing. From long experience know that not more than one or two in a hun dred who read this will succeed in grasping the solid scientific truth of the assertion. The rest will frown, smile knowingly and won der what kind of a nut OF Dock Brady is, or whether there really is such a person.
 While there are millions of in- dividuals who devote good deal of thought and anxiety to the "regulation of the bowels" and new CT permit more than a few hours n1o h out resorting to some more or less violent physic, medicine or enema; on the other hand there are mill lions of individuals who are as in- different and unconcerned about the action of the bowels as they are about the action of the heart or lungs, and they never use any aperient or other artificial aid. Of the two classes, the latter are in- variably the healthier and the hap pier. l grant you that this health and happiHcss, this cheerful frame of mind, is in itself conducive to normal functioning of the bowels and the heart and the lungs; and the anxiety and morbid introspec- tion of the former class tends to dcrange or impair these automatic internal functions.
 Liver pills, so-called, were the greatest "repeaters' the nostrum and quackery word knew up to the dawn of the glorious era of Rus sian" oil, Bulgarian" bacilli. Jap anese" seaweed and Persian" birdseed. Every little dose of any of these nostrums added to what ailed you made you feel you needed more of the same stuff. The secret of success in the physic business is to get customers into the habit. That's what almanacs, testimonials @nd constant da.ly warnings are for.
 Don't ask me for cure for con- stipation. 1 know of none. But if you see it as I do there's a one-to- fifty chance that we may get you out of the habit. Constipation is habit. That's my view.

minutes complete relaxation in the middle of the day. A two hour nap isn't necessary but twenty or thirty minutes will do wonders for her nerves. The thing to do, of course, is to select quiet lunching spot and go there alone. Don't try to talk or think. Simply eat a light, we'll balanced meal and then lie down somewhere for little while.

Fans who have been wondering
what happened TO Bobby Pacho s

vised that the match blew up due
to difficulties which Jackson is
having with his manager, Writ Ross.
This is the news received by The

who had hoped TO fight the cham
pion on the goth inst. Pacho had
agreed to this match before COM
ing here for his recent bout with
Alex Hadrian and expected to sign
up for it on his return to the coast.
His letter states that a bout with
jackson is uncertain now until the
latter gets his managerial difficult
les Strengthened out
Pacho is anxious to get Jackson
in the ring again, the latter having
scored the first kayo against Bob
oy's record when they met several
months ago, the end coming in the
last half minute of l0-round bout.
Bobby is also hoping TO fight here
