Brain TWizzIerS By Prof. J. D. Flint

A doctor who had been forced to perform an operation on a wounded gangster was attacked by members of the gang sometime after the operation because he had done his duty as a law-abiding citizen and given information to the police. The attack took place one day under a quiet and little used viaduct as he was walking toward his office. His injuries were not serious but pain full. He again went to the police and told them that he had been slugged and knocked unconscious. It was important to them to discover ex- actly what time the incident took place. The doctor said, T remem- ber hearing the tower clock strike one just as l returned to conscious ness. I lay there too weak to move for some time and while there I heard the clock strike one three times more at half-hour intervals, That clock, you know, strikes one on each half-hour. So, all in all, I heard it strike one four times. Ac- cording to that returned to con- sciousneSs as exactly --." At just what time did the doctor return to consciousness?

A CROSS the Potomac from ~ Washington in the hallowed ground of Arlington National Cemetery rest 10000 American patriots. White City of the De- parted" Arlington is one of the most remarkable. monuments to national courage and love of country ever conceived.
 The federal government seized the Arlington property in 1864, for non-payment of taxes ($92.07) by the owner, Mrs. Robert E. Lee. Payment of $26,000 to Mrs. Lee was authorized. After her death in 1873, however, these proceed ings were contested by her son, who won his case in the Supreme Court. Thereupon he sold the property to the United States for $150,000.
 Covering 408 acres, Arlington is the last bivouac for more than 10000 soldier dead and national heroes. In one stately tomb the bones of 2111 unknown victims of the Battle of Bull Run repose. In Arlington, too, rests the Unknown Soldier of the World War.
 Latest addition to Arlington is the Memorial amphitheatcr, built of white marble and overlooking the peaceful Potomac. It provides seating capacity for thousands during memorial services. The amphitheater is shown on a 1923 stamp,

years--a lot of people have come and gone."
 There was a short rap at the door, which still stood ajar. The postman looked in, held out let ter. Something for you, John- son." he called.
 The superintendent walked over to the door and took 1t from him, Thanks" he said absently, scru- tinizing the envelope. For the moment he seemed to have for gotten Cilly's presence.
 She sat there, watching him. Did she imagine it, or did his hand tremble just little as he tore open the envelope?
 Eagerly he scanned the contents of the letter, his mouth silently forming the words as he read. Finally his expression relaxed, he grinned as he threw the letter on the table.
 Couldn't imagine who was writing to me-" he said. Tt was from Mrs. Elliot, upstairs of you koAAC Q OCOA away oAASC OuAAOdJ visiting her daughter in Connecti- cut, and she wants me to make sure she shut the bedroom win dow Well, it was good she was away when 1t happened. She's an old lady. What shock! Right outside her window, too. Honest, Miss Pierce, I never expected such thing to happen in this house. When I heard that scream Sunday night, and ran out there ."
 He stopped, throwing out his hands in a gesture of futility.
 Cilly rose. You'll try to re- member who it was, MT. John- son?" she asked again. If we could just find out who threw away those papers ."

never want to meet the Superin- tendent alone on the roof at mid- night
 Well, Miss Pierce!"
 She turned, startled by his voice, and dropped a book she was ex- amining. She was surprised at the fierce, angry look in his eyes.
 "Oh, MT. Johnson! didn't hear you come downstairs I've been glancing over your bookshelf here while I was waiting ."
 He stopped and picked up the book she had dropped, replaced it on the shelf.
 What man wants to read" he said sharply, "is nobody'S busi- ness. Now what can do for you, Miss Pierce?"
 Cilly never remembered hear ing MT. Johnson speak in such a curt, unfriendly tone. She walked over to tn e leather chair and sat down carefully, struggling for composure. She was unconscious of his mild blue eyes, now dark in anger, following her.
 T wanted to speak to you about the tenants, MT. Johnson"
 He waved his hand in annoy ance. "The police have already done that. All day yesterday that fellow Martin checked up on the tenants. I know nothing of them" 7"
 Did any of them come from the West?" Cilly persisted. From Utah, particularly"
 Utah. Let me see . :" MT. Johnson lit a match, puffed slowly on his pipe. T think I remember something about Utah place there called Salt Lake City, isn't there?"
 Seems to me there was some- one came from there - oh, long time ago. But who it was or what can't remember. Why?"
 Cilly told him about the papers she had found wedged in the incin- orator.
 As he listened, the superintend- ent'S manner began to thaw; in his interest at Cillys story he forgot his sudden flash of annoyance.
 So, you see, Miss Kerr might have known someone in Utah someone who lived up stairs in this house. If could just find out who threw away those Utah news papers ."
 Cilly hesitated. She should have spoken to Sergeant Dolan first, but there could be no harm in asking MT. Johnson. One thing was certain, the papers had not belonged to the superintendent Whatever papers he had to burn he could very easily throw into the incinerator itself, next door to his own entrance. He would not have walked up two or three flights to get rid of them.
 Cant you remember, MT. John- son?" Cilly asked. Cant you re- member who it was that came from Salt Lake City?"
 She wondered if he. knew, and was merely trying to shield some one. He shook his head, duly.

CHAPTER XIII

Cilly waited until after nine o'clock on Tuesday morning to cal Sergeant Dolan at police head quarters. He was not in, but she left her name. She stressed the fact that her message was important.
 Then she went downstairs tc Mir. Johnson's rooms in the base ment. If any of the tenants in the house had come from Utah, MT Johnson would remember it. Mov- ing men have to see the superin- tendent before unloading their vans; and a truckload of furniture coming from the Far West would arouse curiosity.
 Good morning, MT. Johnson. T
 Cilly met him coming up the stairs with some tools in his hand He was surprised to see her.
 "Oh, good morning, Miss Pierce Good morning. Did you want to see me?"
 "Yes, I did, MT. Johnson. Are you very busy? There is some thing I wanted to ask you about"
 He stopped 8 minute. Well, I tell you, Miss Pierce, I am in a bit of hurry. Mrs. Downey up in 4-A called me. She's had some sort of an accident with the plumbing-a leak, she says-and wanted to fix it up before any damage was done Are you in a hurry, Miss Pierce?"
 "No, not at all, MT. Johnson. May I wait until you're finished?"
 Sure, sure, Miss Pierce. Come right in"
 Johnson turned and went down the few steps to his own rooms; he opened the door and led Cilly into his simple living room. "I'll be back in ten minutes" he said, and left her alone.
 Afterwards, Cilly wondered why she had suggested waiting for him. She might just as well have gone back to her own apartment and asked him to stop in on his way down. However, here she was. She settled herself to wait.
 What a neat, well-arranged p;ace it was, she thought, for a mans solitary quarters. She liked the comfortable leather chairs, the plain oak table with the red-and- white checkered cloth. She liked the pictures of the sea which dec- orated the wall.
 A small bookshelf lined the wall across the room: looking at 1t, Cilly guessed that the books fulfilled his nautical baskerville and valiant sagas of the sea, they must be. She walked over and glanced at the titles. A mans character is revealed by the books he reads, Cilly thought.
 Suddenly she wrinkled her brow as her eyes continued down the shelf. MT. Johnson's literary tastes took a sudden, surprising turn. There besides the few ad. venturous tales of the sea were other books, startling different. So morbid and erotic were these that Cilly looked twice, to be sure she read their titles correctly Dementia PraecoX, Its Early Symptoms Insanity, the Scourge of Inheritance Adven- lures in Degeneracy
 What strange literature this was for a simple, uneducated man like MT. Johnson-a janitor, who made his living by tasks of carpentry and household repairs! The dis covery suggested an entirely diff ferent insight into the mans quiet, kindly character. Cilly thought quite suddenly that she would
