Martin. From the thicket ahead came the
faint strains of an orchestra. Music with
Lodge meals, eh? Swell, The sound was all
the guide to the lodge he needed. He snatched
his bag and trotted off. The woods road
swallowed him.
He soon outtrotted his wind and slowed
down bit. 1t wouldn't do to keel over out

with even the railroad now out of sight.
The music was farther away than he had
thought and even it wouldn't stay put. Inter-
missions worried him. Suppose the musicians
quit for the day while he was at fork in the
road! He had trudged a good mile or so
according to his reckoning, when he rounded
another bend during one of the music pauses.
Then, in the tangled thicket directly behind,
a tenor assured him that he Must have been
beautiful baby"
With blasphemous roar, ]. Martin quit
the road and plunged cross-lots for his goal.
Saplings slapped him. Dead branches
sprang up and spanked him. His immaculate
linens became considerably less than immac-
ulate. The tenor's tribute to his infant
charms ended but he rushed madly on.
Then he suddenly froze in his tracks as the
music started again and the same voice in
quired if he had ANY umbrellas to mend
today?"
The sound was squarely back of him again!
J. Martin realized that he had been going
around in circles like any other lost idiot.
Fighting panic, he raced toward pine in
line with the tenor's voice. The rhapsody in
umbrellas stopped mysteriously in the middle
of measure.
Panic had ]. Martin now. He lunged on for
a dozen PAGES and stumbled suddenly

into bright sunlight. He blinked uncertainty.
A log house stood in the middle of
clearing. J. Martin hammered on the door,
ratified the knob. No result. He had only
one thought, that he must get to phone and
make that call to the vice-president of the
Sage Company. He hurled his battering- ram
weight against the door panel A rusty bolt
snapped. He found himself in a one-room
cabin No Pine Wood Lodge! No phone!
Empty forest on all sides!
He came outside again. saw another path
which led out from the clearing, and dashed
down it, 1t led to a floating midget dock,
on the edge of a river which gurgled between
sheer rocks. Not even boat to escape in.
Back once more in the clearing, he stood in
bewildered daze. A distant locomotive whistle
jeered at him, it seemed from all directions at
to the cabin for clues.
In the doorway J.. Martin stopped and
laughed Historically On shelf just above his
head, radio set knobbed face grinned
derision.
why damn your tin-pan soul!' he gasped.
He understood the orchestra and its untimely
halt now. Remnants of lunch for two, still
on the table, told the rest of the story. The
shack's inmates had been eating to radio
music when j. Martin had heard the sup
posed Lodge orchestra. Through with their
meal, they had turned the radio off abruptly
and gone fishing or something.

fate, turned the radio to his home station.

"A 9TH hoarse sigh the streamlined
w train paused to drop lone passenger
w in an endless and seemingly empty
forest; as if modernistic dragon, born ages
ahead of time, had crawled into the primeval
world and laid an egg. The egg was ]. Martin
Sage Not bad egg at all, but to scramble
metaphors, an egg broken and fried on both
sides.
He shot an irritable look about the child
sized platform, the silly little canopy clinging
to it like battered mushroom, the weed
grown road crossing the rails. Now where

Ordinarily when Martin boomed the offices
of ]. Martin Sage, Securities, reverberated.
All hands gave heed alertly. In public his
thunder shook auditorium windows set re-
mote radio cabinets dancing. Here it simply
dropped muffled at his feet In sun-scorched
tree top, locust gave him the raspberry in
long buzz-saw note. Naughty boughs whis-
pered Indifferent comment.
]. Martin continued to glare at vacant
and strangely indifferent world. He expected
a vital telephone call at one O'Clock. 1t was
1915 now Still no car. Swell way to treat an
invalid! Nature cure, eh? He was cured of
nature already on this, his first trip to the
real woods So help him. his last. What a
sucker to let Doc Hemple sell him this Pine

Topped with the heat!

secretary, remark that morning two days ago.
He'd felt unusually peppy in fact. High

]. Martin knew he was called Old Indis-
pensable Well, wasn't he? Nobody else had
the details under the hat as he had. That's
just the trouble" Doc had said. Cant leave
details to anybody else
But how could he loaf with the market so
jumpy? With that Mid-Plains deal on. Any
how, he'd suddenly gone unnngh! He had
come to with Doc Hemple saying: You're
going where it's cool and quiet. Rest. Too
bad you've no wife to stand guard, but
nurse will 60 up with you. Next time you'll
go ga-ga or permanently bye-bye. Then
where'l your business be?'

but not the rest With a phone handy, he
and Charlie Brown could get in good licks of
work in the cool quiet. He'd sent Charlie
ahead with the luggage, and given his nurse
the slip. Nurse! HUH
But where was Charlie and the car? ].
Martin thought of dozen disasters that
might follow missing the phone call of James
Newman, the Sage Company vice-president.
He paced the platform, wallowing to his neck
in unfinished business. If he knew in which
direction the lodge was, he'd foot it. "Un-
spoiled section" Doc had said. Huh!
Suddenly familiar sound electrified ].
