CHAPTER VII.
Tha “Flaah-and-Blood.”
sh - Anthony Dldrlng’a Panhard was
waiting a few yard a up the street,' but
such'was the crowd and such the ex
citement of the crowd, that it was.
Impossible to start the car at once. The
multitude refused to acknowledge even
the existence of that murderous vehi
cle. -
Fifty people stood In Its path, star
ing at the door of the court house and
violently discussing the sensation of
the day. Juat as If the car had been
Invisible. This wag the first Indication
Of the- immense and unique interest
which the case of the dead sea captain
was arousing In the most blase of
capitals, -
The chauffeur, not daring to commit
homicide. Sir Anthony Impatiently sup
planted him. nnd executed a prolonged
orchestral fantasia upon the horn (he
prided himself upon' the power of his
horn, which was calculated to damage
the ear as effectually as his four Du-
celller lamps could damage the eye),
whereupon a little lane was reluctantly
formed, and the Panhard departed
amid the execration of quidnuncs who
detested the ostentatious arrogance of
excessive' wealth.
and tbs clmufffur 'tumbl
toneau. The car slid round the corner
at 3b miles an hour.
"Idiots!" ejaculated the .baronet be
tween his teeth,'-with a glance back
ward at the crowd.
“May I ask the reason of this seduc
tion?" Philip-murmured. "Where any
I being taken to?" - -
"Were going In lunch at the ITesh-
and-Blnod," Torn- replied, curtly, "But
I can't tall; now."
"You’ll find v-cc.-sclf ipiklng to a
policeman soon." said Phl||*\ "If you
keep on at this .rate. However., as It
Isn't mv rpr It'.'ant.my license" ,
He finished with a gesture to Indicate
that his life was.of minor Importance.
Tony kept on. He was very evident-
!y in a high fever of the nervous sys
tem. He crossed'Oxford circus at a
speed which ought to have secured his
expulsion from the Automobile Club
of Great Britain and Ireland, and his
progress thence to Albemarle street
was an outrage upon decency and an
Incentive to revolution on the part of
the honest working classes. At length
he drew up before the rich bow-wln-
dowed facade of No. Ill, and flung
himself and Philip onto the pavement
with a vast explosive sigh of relief.
"Ouf,” he breathed. "I’m better!”
and to the chauffeur, "Be back at 4.”
The chauffeur touched his hat re
spectfully, but not without a secret
Idea about the advisability of finding
a fresh master.
“I nearly went off my head trying to
get - Into that confounded coroner’s
court," said Tony, wiping his face.
"People standing behind the door—It
wouldn’t open. Cost me, half a crown
to the policeman to keep my blessed
nose at the crack of the door—and
then I couldn’t hear properly. You
know how highly strung I am. It up
set me! You ought to have come
around last night, old chap. I waited
dinner an hour and I didn't sleep a
wink."
Philip gazed at the young, Ingenuous
face.
"What's up?" he Inquired mildly.
“What's the matter?"
Tony whispered, with an eye on the
footman at the portals:
“Glratda Is the matter! Come along
in.”
They entered the marble foyer of
the Physique Club, referred to by every
one with the least pretension to social
style,' as the Flesh-and-Blood. The
Physique was certainly the club . of
the moment. It had a vogue second
to none, and though Its subscription
was twenty guineas per annum, the
membership reached over four hundred
women. For it was essential to, the
aim and purpose of the Physique that
it should be a "cock-and-hen" af
fair.
It had not escaped the attention of a
number of Intelligences In the aristoc
racy, the plutocracy, and the theatrical
profession—all diligent readers of the
dally press—that the British race was
physically deteriorating. Various
causes. It appeared, from the profes
sionalization of football to the Increas
ingly absurd craze for the competitive
examinations, were contributing to the
gradual extinction of a once hardy and
herculean stock, and the watchful pa
triotic Intelligences had decided that
something must be done to arrest this
gradual extinction. They saw that It
,vns the duty of the aristocracy, the plu
tocracy. nnd the theatrical profession
to set an example' to the rest of the
nation, and the Physique Club was
started. It existed for the cult of the
body. It had swimming baths (In Its
first year the question of mixed bath
ing had nearly wrecked it), and seven
teen other sorts 6f‘ baths, fencing sa
il,nils, billiard rooms, a skating rink,
nthletlc .courts, boxing rings, shoot
ing galleries, a ball room, and several
bridge rooms (for repose): also manl
cure, pedicure, massage, tonsorial, com
gush
dentists: also cricket, football and
hockey fields at Wembley park: golf
links at Wimbledon, and a pack of har.
tiers at Woburn Sands; also a restau

might help to check corporeal decay.

nourishment at the tape-machine

Sir Anthony, after writing Phlllp'i
name in a morocco-bound folio In the
foyer, led Philip to the restaurant,
built and decorated In marble like the
foyer, and like the baths. Music was
forbidden In the restaurant, lest
might distract the attention of eaters
from the process—one of the most
critical passages In the body's dally

ever, Immense), but for his manner. For
Dumllatre's manner was ecclesiastical,
nay, ritualistic; It said to each person
entering the restaurant; "Now, let us
approach with due solemnity the great
crisis of the day. Let us give all our
brains to the selection of a refined
and suitable meal." It was Inimitable
that manner, and It cowered and awed
even the most careless eaters.
Dumllatre, long and thin, with
long romantic mustache, led his pa
tlents to a quiet corner of the room.
"Quite a simple lunch, Dumllatre,'
said Tony.
"Quite a simple lunch? Blen!" said
Dumllatre.
And he seemed to retire like a poet
within the mysterious grottoes of his
own brain.
The clients waited breathless.
"Caviar de Sterlet," chanted Dumll
atre at length, gaxlng at Tony's eyes,
He knew Tony's fondness for caviar.
"Eggs a la grand Due. Baron de Pauli

peer of the realm, so grandlsse was
Dumllatre’s enunciation.) “Asparagus

He smiled ecstatically, full of con
aclousness that he was performing with
the finest ability hla important share'
In the physical salvation of the Anglo
Saxon race.

orders and to recuperate, while two
acolytes prepared the table. The day

half full of caviar, "you remember me

"You said seventy-three," Philip
corrected him.
"Did I? Well, seventy-three. I'm

It was Gtralda I used to go and see.
"The deuce It was! Then you know

"Impossible! She gets a hundred

"I’ve not been to the theatre since
I reached years of discretion,” Philip
exclaimed. ‘That's the reason I've no

"But her portrait, man!”
"What about It?"

PUPILS IN CHICAGO
DON'T HAVE TO REA
By rrlvate Leased Wire.
Chicago, Sept. 5.—When the fall and
winter term of the public schools
opened the board of education served
the following notice on the principals
“To Principals—Please advise
pupils of your school not to purchase
any text-books on reading until further
notice."
As a consequence, the term started
off with one of the three "R's” missing.
The order was due to a complication
which has arisen over the effort to sub
stltute a new set of readers in
schools. The board made the change
nnd then was Informed that the reader
which It had adopted was sold In In
dlana for 56 cents less than It had been
offered to the public schools of this
city. There will be no readers In the
echools until the matter is straightened
out.
GREATER AUGUSTA
IS NOW PROPOSED
Special to The Georxlsn.
Augusta, Ga., Sept 6.—"One of my
first official acts when I take the seat
of mayor of Augusta will bs to have
committee appointed from the city
council to confer with the village
Summerville relative to the annexing
of the village to Augusta,” said Judge
William Dunbar, mayor-elect of Au
gusta. It has been the desire of Judge
Dunbar for some time to have Sum
merville annexed to Augusta, but when
he first proposed the Idea, about two
years ago, he received strong opposition
from some of the large property own
ers.

"Happened to her!" exclaimed Tony.
"What can have happened to her?"
"How do I know?" Philip uttered.
They both again looked at the proud

Surely nothing sinister could have oc

delight!

"And then?”
"I shall employ 'means to persuade

of the Pollexfen case. These matters
can always be arranged."
"And when you’ve found her, you'
claim your reward In the shape of her
hand, eh?" Philip smiled.
"You don't understand love,” said
Tony shortly. "Come upstairs and
have a Leofanl"
He paid the bill at the desk, and
Dumllatre dismissed them above with
gesture c< benediction. It was now
o'clock, and there were a number of
people In the restaurant. The reading

"And who Is Josle?"
"Josephine Fire, my son. The other

Ten years ago more than 60 per cent of American Adver
tising originated within 10 miles of Park Row, New York,
Today 60 per cent of American Advertising comes from the
Chicago territory.
T HE development of commercial
supremacy In The West is the
natural result of the development

credit for the development of Western
Advertisers.
Our business has grown because we
have made the businesses of our clients
grow.
And because we did our share in build*
ing up small Western Advertisers—
Eastern Advertisers (great and small)
have come to us until today we have an
annual business of $4,000,000.00 and 700
clients (small and large) from all over
the country.
Fortunately our volume of business
enables us to retain more $5,000, $10,000
and $20,000-a-year brains for the prepa
ration of advertising campaigns than
any other three advertising organiza
tions in the country combined.
Our volume of business has also given
us the most valuable advertising exper

This Record constitutes the Only Tan

quiries and sales known positively to

fications of selling plans and copy,
advertising hundreds of different com

We are fortunate in being located in
Chicago, because here the Western
Spirit is fully in evidence. And here
we are more closely in touch with every
part of the country than we would be in
any other city in the United States.
The center of population is within 100

Moving Better at Casino.
There was a. good excuse for the
manner of operation of the Ponce De
Leon Casino bill on Monday night. The
feature acts of the bill reached . At
lanta on delayed trains from New York,
and owing to the great travel of Labor
day, the transfer company Was unable
to handle baggage, and In consequence
lot of tired out and nerve wrecked
beings tried to entertain without ef
fects and wardrobe that made up much
of the variety of the entertainment.
Everything was put In proper shape
Tuesday, however, and both perform
ances at the delightfully pleasant the

of approval, and the show was enthu
siastically received. And now that
everything Is running smoothly, the bill
Is going to make one of the hits of
the season, and will probably play to
close point to the record for attend
ance.
Vaudeville la popular, and Just the
sort of bill now at the Casino has es
tablished this fact. There Is good va
riety In the make-up, and that the bill
Is high-class Is a fact that will be in
dorsed after an Inspection.
The three Coates are clever, and will
