CHAPTER V
MUSIC IN THE AIR
Garrick and Dick walked slow
ly down Forty-ninth street and
across Sixth avenue, laughing at
Ruth’s ruse —and a bit sore.
“I suppose you feel put out!"
punned Garrick.
Dick was too puzzled to get it.
“She certainly put us through the
Inner Circle with as much neatness
and dispatch as a sardine goes from
the river to the tin in the movies
. . . Only, I wonder why?”
Garrick was thinking of the threat
message. “Could it be that she took
that way of keeping us out of dan
ger?” »
He stopped short and looked hack.
A tough stranger was lurking back
of them. Garrick moved ahead an 1
stopped again. The stranger stopped
and slouched into a garage. Garrick
walked back quickly and as he
passed him looked over and smiled.
“I’m on,” he laughed and the man
dropped his eye in sheepish sullen
ness.
They turned the corner and again
into Fiftieth stretet. As they passed
the other door of the garage which
ran through the block Garrick hesi
tated as if to walk through it and
locate the shadower. As he did so
he saw another man slink into a
doorway.
“We’ve discovered one! another
has moved up to take his place. An
old any very efective device."
He hurried down the street with
Die:., plunged into the subway, wait
ed for a train, then walked on out
down Garrick if he suspected he was
being shadowed.
What did it mean? Still speculat
ing, they went on to Garrick’s city
the other exit. No “tail” could hold
apartment at Bachelor’s Hall and
turned in.
The next morning was rainy,
damp and depressing. Garrick and
Dick had breakfasted and were dis
cussing the events of the day before.
Garrick’s mind was most active
when his physical being seemed
laziest. Stretching out in his chair,
raising his arms slowly above his
head, he yawned and was about to
deliver himself of some sage observa
tion on life in general and the case
in particular when the telephone
rang.
Lang it, what s this? Answer it
Dick, old man?”

Richmond Woman Declares She
Was Almost a Nervous And
Physical Wreck From Her Suf
fering—Praises Tanlac For Her
Complete Restoration.
“I am so happy over what Tanlac
nas done for me I want to tell every
body I meet,” declared Mrs. S T
Diggs, 810 N. 22nd St., Richmond',
Va.
“I suffered for six years and was
almost a wreck. I had constant head
aches and was so nervous the noise of
the street cars nearly run me to dis
traction. I had little or no appetite
and my digestion was so bad that
what I ate nauseated me. I had
rheumatism so bad in my left shoul
der that I could not raise my arm,
and got but little sleep at night. Fin
ally I was operated on in the hope
of relief but when I came home I was
as bad ff as ever.
“I was astonished to feel better af
ter my first few doses of Tanlac. All
my troubles have been completely
overcome, I never have an ache or
pain and have gained ten pounds.
Tanlac is worth its weight in gold.”
Tanlac is sold by all good drug
gists. adc

Take * glua of Salta if your Back
hurta or Bladder bothers—Meat
forma uric acid.
If yritl must have your meat every day,
teat it, but flush your kidneys with salts
occasionally, says a noted authority who
tells us that meat forms uric acid which
almost paralyzes the kidneys in their ef
forts to expel it from the’ blood. They
become sluggish and weaken, then you
Buffer with a dull misery in the kidney
region, sharp pains in the back or sick
headache, dizziness, your stomach sours,
tongue is coated and when the weather
is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The
urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the
Channels often get sore and irritated,
obliging you to seek relief two or three
time during the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids, to
cleanse the kidneys and flush off the
body’s urinous waste get four ounces of
Jad Salts from any pharmacy here:
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
Water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for geneiations
to flush and stimulate sluggish kidnevs
itlso to neutralize the acids in urine,
Bo it no longer irritates, thus ending
{■ladder weakness.
| Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in-
and makes a delightful effervesceuf
Jttoia-water drink.
Dick’s wind and body were both
alert. He had breakfasted with a
couple of invisible companions, love
and anxiety. “Garrick.” He held his
hand now over the transmitter. “My
word! It’s Mrs. Walden.”
“Nita Walden? Here? Tell her
there’s a little reception room down
there. We’ll be with her right
away.”
Nita Walden was distractedly

gazed out of the window at her car
in which McKay was biting with
bulldog grip at his pipe as if con
templating something distasteful.
Garrick c. d the door as she
rushed excitedly to him and seizec
his hand with fingers that clinchec
unconsciously.
“Guy ... I am desperate. It’:
Ruth again—my little girl. You must
find her for me. I can’t take any
one into my confidence except you—
and Dick. I don’t know which way
to turn. She didn’t come home last
night. I have walked and walkec
the floor waiting for her. I haven’t
even had a telephone call from het
or anyone else. What shall I do:
She never, never did this before. My
Ruthie—my little girl. Oh, Guy,. 1
can’t stand the worry and uncer
tainty of it. Help me, please.”
Garrick took Nita’s arms and let
her quietly back to a big seat in on<
end of the room. Gently he ques
tioned her until he had her quietec
by concentrating on her answers.
There was a knock, at the door.
Garrick opened it. It was McKay.

the Island —ran into a fence or some
thing on an approach tn one <rf-the
bridges on the Motor Parkway—over
the embankment —near Smithtown.”
“Was she hurt? Where is she?”
Mrs. Walden’s acute ears had caught
even the modulated words.
“No one knows, ma'am. There
was not a trace of anyone around
the car just the machine, left
there.”
‘Oh, Guy, this is terrible, terrible.
What shall I do? I’ll go wild with
fear if I don’t hear something soon.”
What had happened? Garrick tried
obe reassuring, but Nita Walden
would not be reassured.
“This is another mad escapade of
Ruth . . . and Vira, I suppose . . .
ind who else? What can Ruth be
hinking about?”
Garrick took down the telephone
■eceiver and called a Bryant num
>er. Dick glanced over quickly. It
vas a number he had seen in the
allway of the Inner Circle and-had
lade a mental note of. Evidently
iarrick had done the same.
“This is Glenn Buckley’s brother,”
e prevaricated. “Is he there? Well,
o you know where I can call him?
ou think he’s at the Cecil? Thank
ou.”~
Garrick turned, without betraying
here it was he had called. “They’re
Jme friends of his. I thought per
aps Glenn might give us some in
clination. Suppose, Nita, you have
IcKay drive us over to the Cecil,
i’s on Park avenue.”
They were rounding the Grand
entral and caught in traffic when
iarrick suddenly beckoned over a
'ewsboy arid bought a couple of
vening papers.
“Another robbery on Long Island,”
le commented, as he glanced down
.’rom the big headline. “The Parr
’state in Smithtown.”
“The Parrs?” commented Mrs.
•Vaiden. “Why, they’re friends of
nine. They have a beautiful place,
very wealthy people.
“Strange circumstances,” went on
reading Garrick. “A girl and two
nen. Then he checked himself.
W hy that's like the affair over at
Terards’ the other night,” supplied
Hrs, Walden.
It was easy to see what was run
ning through her mind, the simi
arity of the affairs, the coincidence
)f Ruth’s car on the Parkway near
Smithtown, and her intimacy with
he family. She did not say any
thing but ran through the short
lews story fervishly without find
ing anything further to feed her
ears. But it was evident that she
uspected'thc worst. Had Ruth been
nixed up in it?
They found Glenn at the Cecil,
ooking a bit fagged.

“Ruth, why, she’s all right, Mrs.
Walden,” he hastened. “Yes, I heard
something about an accident. Just
the steering gear went wrong. But
she was quick enough to get from
under the car and took the fence in
stead of up the bridge and off—at
least that’s what I heard.”
They harried Young Bukley with
questions, but he was guarded. He
protested that he knew nothing
more, winding up again with the
assurance, “She’s all right though.”
“But how do you know she’s all

It seemed as though having de
livered his assurance that Ruth was
safe, Glenn was doing some rapid
thinking on his own account. How
had they located him here at the
Cecil? It was true that his family
lived here in the winter, hut the
more he revolved it in his mind, the
more suspicious of Garrick he be
came and he began to .shut up for
