THREE STEPS

Why do people come home from
hospital with bowels working like a
well-regulated watch?
The answer is simple, and it's the
answer to all your bowel worries If
you will only realize it: many doctors
and hospitals use liquid laxative.
If you knew what doctor knows,
YOU would use only the liquid form.
A liquid can always be taken in
gradually reduced doses. Reduced
dosage is the secret Of any real relief
from constipation.
Ask a doctor about this. Ask your
druggist how very popular liquid
laxatives have become. They give the
right kind of help, and right amount
of help. The liquid laxative generally
used is DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
1t contains senna and cascara - both
natural laxatives that can form no
! habit, even in children. So, try Syrup
! Pepsin. You just take regulated
doses till Nature restores regularity.

sore in the body polite that has
done much to dissipate the energies
of the citizenship. Ever since 1912,
Nogales has been cursed with fac
tionalism based upon public utili-
ties. It has drained away from con-
structive effort much of the energy

have resulted in Nogales going for
ward much faster than it did. Fac
tionalism invated politics, the
schools, even the churches and So
cial clubs-all because Of the con-

public utilities question. Let us hope
that some day this question may
be settled to the end that the No

gies to more useful purposes. Help

The detective posted his two uni
formed men at the main door, 1907;
then ordering jerks to remain out
side as we'll, he followed the lawyer
into the library. Two other men
awaited them there.
Mr.. Dawson introduced them.

sis. I've just finished . puzzlini
one and I guess l deserve vaca-
ton" He shrugged in comic help
lessness. ooh we'll. | suppose it's
all in days work, Thomas. Where
do l go?"
Primarily because of his youth, he
fitted in few respects the typical
conception of a detective. Only
thirty, he looked twenty-five. In
appearance considered handsome, he
had high forehead, surmounted by
curly dark brown hair. His lips
were thin, and usually set together
beneath sensitive nostri1s; he had a
determined chin and dark, piercing
eyes, constantly alert. He was
broad-shouldered, of medium height
and powerfully built.
AS usual, when the captain knew
Rankin was about to undertake a
fresh inquiry, he could not resist his
| customary quip.
"Who would you like along with
you in this case, Tommy" he in
Quired, his smile thinly yelled
You'll probably need plenty of help
before this business is over"
For he was aware that ordinarily
it was Rankin's policy to work as q
lone wolf. He preferred to have
exclusive charge of an assignment
even of its rountine features, unit
compelled by its complications te
enlist outside aid.
Recognizing the captains jibe
Rankin grinned, but his reply
brought stare of amazement to hi'
colleagues stout features
you're probably right, captain,
he said; that's why 1 think I'll lug
Jenkins along, and couple of cops.
He collected jerks and two uni
formed officers and set out. Rankir
located on the directory board the
firm of Dawson, MacQuire & Locke
and they boarded an express eleva
tor to the fifteenth floor.
The offices they sought were di
rectly opposite the cage, as they
stepped from it. Three doors
fronted the corridor, marked respec'
lively 1905, 1907 and 1909; and the
glazed front of 1909 also instructed
visitors to enter at 1907, the centra
door
Entering the main office of the
firm, 1907, the detective and his
companions at once realized the sub
stantial size and prosperity of the
lawyers practice. Several people
waited in the chairs lined against the
inner wall, on both sides of the door
Six desks were arranged behind the
rail, with as many employees

no one worked, nor was the usua

all watched the new arrivals silently

"Glad to meet you. Then it is q

Gravely nodding, the lawyer pro-
ceeded to explain. II regret it's
quite serious enough for that. Brief.
ly, here is the situation. have
been holding a series of hearings IN
a divorce action in my Office, in a
contested case. This afternoon, the
first testimony for the defense to
prevent the granting OF the divorce
was to be presented. The complain
ing party offered some opposition te
the introduction of Mrs. Barbara
Keith, the first witness for the de-
fense. And when Mr.. Trumbull,
counsel for the defendant, went to
bring her in, he found she was dead.
. There are indications that her
death was neither normal nor acci-
dental"
Ranl1in's eyes widened in interest
and he asked sharply:
Not normal? That leaves only
when she died, Mr.. Dawson?"
The lawyer inclined his head to-
ward the door leading from the
library into 1905, adjoining.
"In that Office" he replied,
where, l understand, she was wait
ing until she would be called to give
her testimony. On being informed
| by Mr.. Trumbull of his discovery,
we entered and naturally assumed
she had suffered a stroke or heart
attack or something of that sort.
But DR.. Clark's examination sug-
gests she met her end by violence. p"
Il believe she was chloroformed
to death" the physician volunteered.
Rankin focused penetrating
gaze on the doctor. "Chloroform,
DR.. Clark? Are you positive of
that? What evidence supports
your diagnosis?"
"The woman's eyes were dilated,
which is a dependable sign of death
by some such irregular means" DR..
Clark returned. "I've had no oppor-
tunity to examine her blood, but
| don't doubt it will be darkish and
fluid. In addition, there are red
marks on her arms and wrists as if
some one had had powerful grip
on them"
"Then your opinion of what oc-
Cured is that some one seized her
and forcibly administered chloro-
form through her nose until she
succumbed."
The physician nodded. eyes. the
symptoms, her position, pushed
back like that in the chair, and the
rough handling she must have re-
celved all point to it."
"Well, unless more than one per-
son was concerned" Rankin COM
mented, "a man was probably re-
sponsible. DR.. Clark, how quickly
does chloroform act to prove fatal?"
THE time is uncertain, and
varies with the person." the other
responded; perhaps two minutes.
and at most, few seconds LONGER
than that: On the other hand, il
might kill in even less time than
minute. Administered with satu-
rated cloth or cotton, it would be
very efficient"
