How to Reduce

Reducing should only be under
taken under q physicians direc-
ton or under q reliable plan. So
many faddist reducing diets have
been introduced which are really
dangerous, that one should be very
sure before starting that the diet
to be used is one which does not
violate any Of the accepted princi-
ples Of nutrition. It should con-
tain an adequate amount Of pro-
tein, carbohydrate, minerals, vita
minis and bulk. The number Of cal
cries allowed per day will usually
range from 800 to 1900.
In reducing the calories, 1t Is de-
sirable to eliminate q large part
Of the fat and concentrated carbo-
hydrates and starches from the
diet. BY this method, the diet can
still include generous and satisfy
ing amounts Of the essential pro-
tective foods fruit, milk and vege-
tables.
Here are some sample reducing
menus which are known to fill the
body requirements but which will
reduce weight steadily and surely II
followed faithfully:
Breakfast Pattern
Unsweetened fruit, such as sliced
peaches or grapefruit.
Lean protein food, such as I egg
or crisp bacon.
Bread and butter, such as I
muffin or / slice toast and n. equare
Of butter.
Beverage, clear coffee, no sugar
or cream.
Luncheon Pattern

Vegetable or salad.
Dessert.

Sample luncheons =. Vegetable
soup, crab salad with mineral oil
mayonnaise, fresh pear, SKINNED
milk, or

Adaptation and Arrangement-Copy

Somebody tapped Keough on the
shoulder. He jumped a foot It was
Bailey, the night clerk, looking pretty
worn, but pretty excited.
"Boy!" Bailey whispered. "You
Scotland Yard men have quick reac-
tions! If I'D a been a mobster you'd
have drilled me before I could have
pulled my gun!"
Keough didn't know what the Scot
land Yard stuff was all about, but he
appreciated the awe. We're trained
to move quickly" he said.
Bailey nodded with understanding
I've got information for you, SIR. !
thought you ought to know. The duke
has just received a thousand pounds
from an English bank"
Keough knew that the universe had
fallen apart. Charlie Jones receiving
a thousand pounds! Idiotic! But
Bailey was still looking at him. This
was no time to move a muscle. He
said, "Ah!" Just-"Ah!"

life and was so fascinated by marine

Mrs. BLY,, who had been made very
hungry by her horseback ride, but who
interrupted her vigorous dining with
occasional shrewd glances at every
body.
Moreover, since they were all regis
tered under false names, they had q
great deal Of difficulty in recalling each
others sobriquets, and for that reason
whenever the waitress or head waiter
approached the table they lapsed into
silence.
Things were pretty much at stale
mate. Irene and Margit both clearly
wished with devoutness that they had
never heard of the Prince James
Hotel.
When the meal was finished Charlie
asked Margit to go for a canoe ride.
Margit said, No"
Then he asked Irene. Irene said
NO" also. Then she looked bitterly
at Waldo and changed her mind.
Waldo asked Felice to 20 canoe
riding.
Margit asked Mrs. BLY, to 60 for a
walk.
Thus the sun moved across the
heavens into midafternoon and the
situation on the shore of Lake George
remained At q deadlock for every one
except Keough.
Keough received an answer to his
cablegram about o'clock. 1t was a
lengthy answer. Its first few words
set him tingling. Its total contents
was almost too much even for his
master mind:
Cornwall T. Asquith, Prince James
Hotel, Lake George, New York.

lected for him was one from which
Bailey could not be seen-so he de-
liberately chose another. Bailey real
lied, from the expression on Charles
face that he would be unable to listen
in on the call without being Observed
so he made no effort to do so-which
was what Charlie had intended.
He picked up the receiver. Hello"
A British voice replied, Hello!
Charlie, old bean! Roger Weed speak
ing!"
Hello, Roger!"
Can I speak freely, Charlie?"
"You bet. There's q guy trying to
listen in. but I've got my eye on him
so he doesn't dare"
Splendid I say-what's the idea
Of masquerading under the name Of
Banks?" Where's Lake George? Never
heard Of the place! Did you get the
thousand quid?"
Yeah. Just before lunch. Thanks" /"
There was anxiety in the English
mans voice. Look here, old man, I
just got a cablegram from your side.
From q fellow named Asquith, who
says he's a special deputy from the
New York Police Department. Wants
to know all about you. Shall 1 an
swer it?"
Charlie grinned. He had expected
that London was calling to check up
on the fact that he had requested
money to be sent to somebody named
Banks. But the realization that Ke-
ough, the sleuth, had cabled his Lon
don agent for information amused
him highly. ITS part Of a gag"
Charlie said.
"Gag?"
Charlie was laughing. "Booby trap.
Mares nest. Sort of superjoke"
There was relief in Roger Weeds
voice now. Il guessed as much. Shall
I answer the thing?"
Answer it! should say so! Chance
Of lifetime"
Charlie talked steadily for five full
minutes. AS he talked the English
mans voice responded with a variety
Of "Rightos" and several hearty laughs.
When he finished Roger Weed said,
Excellent! When are you coming
over? I want to hear all about It,"
Charlie replied, "I'll be over this
Summer. But you'll probably read
about it in the newspapers before get
there. So long"
The transatlantic connection was
broken.
Lunch was a rather difficult meal.
There were not many guests at the
Prince James-which gave the dining
room a rather dolorous atmosphere
Besides that. the moods of the diners
were highly varied. Waldo seemed
elated. Felice was excited. Irene
acted peeved. Margit was thoughtful
and distracted. From time to time
she gazed at Irene. but more often she
looked at Charlie. Charlie was OBJ
viously at one with the world-as was

the South Pacifc-he would undoubt-
edly be excited.
Such was precisely Keoughs state
OF mind when Bailey told him that
Charlie Jones had Just been cabled
one thousand pounds.
The study Of criminal detection had
been Keough's hobby. In . moment
OF overstimulation he had even told
Margit that he intended to leave her
service and become q detective. Actu-
ally, however, such an idea had been
far from his mind--and only the fact
that circumstances had thrown into
his lap situation demanding his ESQ.,
teric skill had caused Keough to par
ticipate in any more violent activity
than counting the laundry or serving
tea.
Bailey's ready acceptance of Keough
as man from Scotland Yard had
further overtopped the buffers habits.
He had, indeed reverted to the emo
tional age of IL. when there is an
Indian lurking around every corner
and washcloth tucked In your belt
becomes human scalp.
Keough had responded to Bailey's
amazing information with an "Ah!"
Actually his heart was pounding. It
was only the fact that he recalled
lesson in Detective Strategy
Cat times Of great emotional stress
the investigator must show the utmost
calm)-that gave Keough the pres
ence OF mind to murmur "Ah!" In
stead Of to shout. Good heavens,
man, it's unbelievable"
Bailey was waiting.
Keough was thinking.
Obviously, Charlie Jones was not
what he seemed to be. ANY man who
lived in trailer and drew pictures on
the street, but who was able to raise
$4,000 by cabling a foreign country,
was sailing under false colors. Keough
knew all about false colors. He real
lied also that in order to maintain
Bailey in that awe-stricken attitude he
would have to do something pretty i'm
pressive.
He glanced around the room and
assured himself that no one was caves
dropping. you have the address of
the banking firm to which Mr.. Banks
cabled?"
Certainly" said Bailey.
"A new name on my dossier," mur-
INJURED the bearded butler. Il will
cable the flrm at once demanding full
particulars, in so far as they know
them, concerning Mr.. Banks"
Bailey's eyes glittered. He let
Keough know that he was in on the
secret. you mean-concerning his
excellency the duke?"
For an instant Keough was totally
at sea. Then he remembered that he
had referred to Charlie as 1.-The duke"
and Irene as ''the duchess" over the
phone. He nodded and stroked his
beard "Quite so. The duke"
Bailey hurried away for a cable
blank.
Some two hours later, as Charlie
was entering the dining room in the
company of Mrs. BLY,, Margit, Irene.
Felice and Waldo-he was tapped on
the shoulder by bellboy. London
calling, sir" r.
Charlie stared. "London?"
"Yes, sir. This way"
Charlie was led to telephone booth
IN the main foyer. He glanced from
the booth toward the desk and saw
that Bailey was sitting tensely at the
switchboard. That meant that Bailey
was going to listen to his conversa-
tion. AS soon as Bailey saw him look
ing, he put down the headpiece.
Charlie perceived that the booth Sc
