mad. And = this was his crown ing achievement--he developed a new religion"
 The man paused again, allow ing this information to settle in the minds of his listeners. After all, there is nothing so strange about that. Why should we al- ways accept the religions of the past2 Why wasn't Dewitt Mont- gomery inspired as well as many another? Don't you agree?"
 He must certainly have been a .cc;;,,,c ,llable fellow" answered Harp CT with well simulated seriousness. What were the tenets of this reli- gion?"
 The narrator sighed. Tt would take a long while to explain them. It is a religion not to be taken lightly, not to be learned swiftly, as children learn in Sunday school. Suffice it to say that Dewitt Mont gomery was chosen to disseminate its good upon this earth.
 "He had well defined plan for doing this. His idea was to teach it to women who would in turn go out and spread its gospel. He chose wo- men for their amenable nature. He chose widows because they were more likely to have done with the ways of the outside world. And he made an effort to obtain widows ot wealth so that they would be in position, independently, to spread the word."
 The man rose slowly, went back to the roaring fire at the hearth and stood silently. .
 And was his plan successful?" asked Harper quietly.
 The other shook his head "No ." he said. You see, the women all fell i'll. Perhaps it was the rigorous winters of the island. Perhaps some taint in the water. to which Dewitt Montgomery had become immune. At any rate, all died. One by one they came in answer to his advertisements in the English and Australian news papers-and never left the island"
 Kay paled. Involuntarily she gasped out. You mean that they all"
 "All except one," the man inter- rupted with strange swiftness. "One returned to England. Un- fortunately she had not grasped the meaning of Dewitt Montgom- ery's teachings. She brought charges against him, claiming that he had inveigled the women into settlements as to their money, then murdered them"
 Do you believe she was right?" asked Harper quietly, reaching for a cigaret from the little table.
 The man shrugged. "Who are we to say? After so long time it would be futile to argue that little point, would it not? Nevertheless the law came to the island to take Dewitt Montgomery into custody. There was a terrific battle, for naturally he had no desire to leave the place he loved so well. But at last, he was captured and taken aboard ship.
 "The officers did not find his hidden apartment. They foolishly believed that he had destroyed 1t and they were interested pri- marily in his capture, anyhow. Dewitt Montgomery was taken back to England and put into prison. Perhaps you both were, too young at the time to remember the newspaper articles. AS are all great religious

WHEN Victor Emmanuel III or
 " Italy ascended his throne in 1900, following the assassination of his father near Manzo. he was destined to reign longer than any other king then alive in Europe.
 Queen Wilhelmina of Holland and the former King Alfonso of Spain are the only living royalties reigning when Victor took his high oath. But Alfonso, who ruled until 1881, finally yielded his throne before a republican up- rising. Wilhelmina ascended the throne in 1890. /
 King Haakon VII of Norway was crowned five years after Vic- tor Emmanuel. King Gustav V of Sweden was crowned in 1907, King George V of Great Britain in 1910, and King Christian of Denmark in 1912. ' Long regarded as one of the most cultured crowned heads in European history, Emmanuel leads a versatile life. He is at once businessman, soldier king, sportsman, agriculturist and nu- misms4ist. His coin collection is said to be probably the finest in the world, containing more than 230,000 pieces.
 Close student of government, Emmanuel was quick to note the rise of Benito Mussolini, and himself invited Mussolini in 1922 to come to Rome to form gov- ernment. The two have been close friends since. Emmanuel, pictured on many Italian stamps, is shown here on a 1883 stamp.

CHAPTER XIV

"The story of these rooms?' Harper exclaimed. We certainly would like to hear it, wouldn't we Kay?"
 She nodded, trying hard to fall into Harper'S game of playing for time. And despite her fears, she found herself curious about this strange place beneath the wood and it's stranger occupant.
 Tt is quite story" the man said. T do not believe have ever told 1t before. But now now there is no real reason why l should not tell it. Furthermore :. ." Che smiled again in that peculiar way which froze Rays hear) it will do no harm to tell it to you two.
 You see", he went on, many years ago there was a man named Dewitt Montgomery who came here from England. That was before the days of swift transportation and before people in private cruisers were likely to invade ones privacy. He saw the island during hunting and fishing trip, and he liked it very much. He brought a group of work men to build him this underground apartment.
 His theory was that during the daytime he would enjoy the natural beauties of nature above ground. At night, he reasoned, 1t would make no difference whether he slept above or below ground. And this had an- other advantage-an important one --if strangers happened to land here they were likely to find no evidence of occupation.
 "The workmen, of course, de- cided that Dewitt Montgomery was insane. All of them left quickly, as soon as they were f1n- ished and paid. One story has it that none ever left at all ."
 The narrator chuckled, left the fire to settle into one of the big chairs from which he stared at Kay and Harper. "In any event, Montgomery's eccentricities were quickly forgotten. The island was forgotten, too, for it was off the passenger boat lane, and only a few hunters and fishermen saw 1t.
 go Dewitt Montgomery lived here. For food he planted gaF- den, made traps, and did some fishing and hunting. Whenever he needed anything from outside he ordered it by mail, going in a canoe to the nearest settlement eight miles south. Sometimes an order would take months to reach him - but he didn't mind. Grad ually the place was just about as he wanted it. Not, of course, as comfortable as now-because that was 8 great many years ago. He had no electric light, no air con- ditioning."
 The man was silent moment, staring at the two young people before him. Kay stirred uncom- fortably, glancing toward Grant Harper. He was sitting easily in the big leather chair, his eyes fixed pleasantly on their "host."
 Please go on," Harper invited.
 Slowly the man passed a hand over his face, seemed to resume with an effort. Dewitt Mont gomery was a studious man." he went on, waving an arm toward one of the doors. q still have his library.

Brain TWizzlers By Prof. J. D. Flint
Like so many of our present-day

Like so many of our present-day articles of food, drink, furniture, heirlooms, etc., some Twizzlers seem to improve with age. Many of the ones that have stumped Twiz- zler-lovers for generations and even centuries still strike a very responsive chord in the hearts and minds of loyal followers. AS a result, and by popular request we give you now the old, old one dealing with the lineage of Moses. If it carries you back we hope you have for gotten the key to the solution, if 1t is new to you we know that it lacks none of its original Twizzle. Have at it, Twizzler:
 If Moses was the son of Pharaohs daughter, who was the daughter of Pharaoh'S son?
 With the experience of Twizzler- solving you'll be able to locate the key.
