Robert tool the lead in the con-

mentioned the fact that Nina

to come to the office, do murder
leave, and continue with the pro-
gram.
In the first place, there would not
have been time for her to even
reach the place, let alone return.
In the second plSce, the doors al
ways were locked during a broad
cast and she could not have left
the auditorium where she was
speaking during the musical inter-
mission.
And in the third place, there

the commissioner added. I'm

Linda thought carefully. There

ers of the skin, each one sur
rounded by a network of blood
vessels. The sweat comes from
the blood, consists mostly of water
and salt, but may contain many
other substances. Preparation,
aided by the natural oil from the
sebaceous glands keeps the skin
pliable, soft and moist. Even IN
cool weather the body produces a
quart of perspiration in twenty
four hours.
Natures Cooling Device
The sweat glands are most nu-
merous where the temperature
buds of the nerves are most nu-
merous. Very few around the
knees and thighs, for instance
which are not sensitive to cold or
heat. The exposed parts of the
body produce the most sweat, the
armpits seem to produce more be-
cause the skin areas are in contact
here and evaporation is limited.
Evaporation is Natures most
efficient cooling device, that's why
perspiration is such an ethclens
temperature regulator. Humidity
and air currents condition this et-
ficiency. Humidity in our average
summer temperatures is 40 to 6O,
and this conduces to free evapora-
ton. In dry desert climates, even
with the temperature above llO
perspiration evaporates so rapid
ly that you are actually chilly.

WRITTEN FOR AND RELEASED CENTRAL PRESS ASSOCIATION
CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT


COULD anyone have wanted
your life?" the commissioner had
asked Linda Just as she saw the
initial in the handkerchief which
she had retrieved from the floor Of
the office.
a small, hand blocked initial ap-
pcared in one corner. 1t was an Old
English M" 1t might have stood
for Nina or it might have stood for
Markley or maybe Il just repre-
sented a Margaret or Mary.
She gazed at it, fascinated. Still
not answering the question, she
lifted the small square to her nose
and the scent was stronger now.
She handed the object to the
commissioner. Il found this on the
floor just now. I thought i was
mine until picked it up"
IAN M" the man said. And
your name is Linda Avery and the
dead girl is Clarabell Alderman.
Do you know an enemy whose
name begins with Mp"
Linda hesitated. If only she had
someone to guide her. If Ronnie
would come, or Rob had been pres
ent they would answer for her. It
was quite possible that the MUIR
derer had mistaken Clarabell Ack-
erman for her, but that murderer
couldn't be Nina Nevins. She had
been on the air at the time Of the
murder.
Her hesitation was noticed by the
police. Better answer all ques-
tons, Miss Avery. 1t will be easier
And simpler"
Gould I see you alone?" she
asked, and her voice sounded
small and tired even to her own
ears.
She dared not mention Nina
Nevins in front of these reporters.
Some of them had gone, scamper-
ing to the nearest telephones to
tell their night editors to change a
page.
Whether the commissioner would
have said that he would talk to her
alone or not, Linda never knew,
for at that moment the door opened
and a tall figure appeared.
"Oh, Robert" She was across
the room, and his strong arms were
steadying her, before the words
had left her lips.
There was peace and poise and
comfort in his presence. She was
so joyfully, tearfully glad that he
had come.
Someone sent word to your
apartment that you were here. No
one was home, but l happened to
be passing" he said. "Of course I
came right away"
Briefly Robert was Informed of
the events of the past hour. His
eyes sobered at the sight of the
girl who slumped over the desk. No
move had been made to conceal her
or take her away,
Couldn't we have a conference,
commissioner Robert asked.
"You said that this murder might
be a case of mistaken identity. It's
quite true, and yet"
May i talk alone to Mr.. Bar
ton ?" Linda asked. For just mo-
ment, please?"
The man hesitated. From the
canyon of the streets below there
came the subdued sound of the
night traffic. The theaters were
long since out and the play spots
were gay and crowded, and the
taxicabs carried groups from one to
another.
The rain was growing steadier
and harder, and it beat against the
windows. Grateful as sh2 was for
Roberts protection, Linda wished

foods is all right to take. With
the yellowing of the skin there IS
also constant constipation.
Answer-Olive oil is perfect
" good food under these eircum-
stances and will not do you any
harm. 1t is quite possible that you
are taking some kind of a cathartic
