On a busy Saturday a lady tele
phoned for three theater seats.
“Very sorry—not a seat left,” said
the box office attendant, “but we
have one private box."
“Oh!" said the lady, “that’s no

vate box!”
"Perhaps not, madam,” retorted
the diplomatist, “but everybody can
see you!”
The box was sold immediately.
Teacher Loved Him!
Bobby’s grades in spelling and

in spelling and nearly all my prob
lems In arithmetic!” —Indianapolis

SYNOPSIS
Theodore Gatlin adopts a baby, "Pe
nelope," in an effort to solve his matri
monial trophies. But his wife has
never wanted her, and their affairs end
in the divorce court. At a baseball
game a ball strikes ten-year-old Pe
nelope on the nose. Mrs. Gatlin spirits
the child to Europe. Gatlin wills Pe
nelope all his money, and is about to
begin a search for her when a motor
accident ends his life. Some ten years
later, in San Francisco, Stephen Burt,
rising young psychiatrist, is presented
by Dan McNamara, chief of police, with
a new patient—Nance Belden, a girl
with a dual personality, for which her
“saddle nose” is in part responsible.
McNamara does not think she is a
criminal and obtains Burt’s testimony
in court. Lanny, the doctor's office
nurse, is also won over. Nance’s crim
inal record outweighs Doctor Burt’s
explanation of her case and she is sent
to San Quentin penitentiary. Nance
escapes, although shot, and goes to
Lanny's apartment. From one of the
men In the boat on which the girl
escaped McNamara learns that Nance's
real name is Penelope Gatlin. He also
discovers that she is heiress to $750,-
000. Fearful of McNamara, in his of
ficial capacity, Nance flees. Lanny finds
her in her apartment, asleep. Then she
disappears, and McNamara learns that
she is living in Paris.

— was too much, Lanny put her
arms around him and kissed him on
each cheek.
“And that’s a seal that’ll get by, too."
Dan was embarrassed. Lanny was, too
—so she took a hasty departure.
The two men stared after her, ad
miration in their eyes. “A d —d fine
woman, that. None finer,” said McNa
mara.
“Why don't you marry her?” The
suggestion popped out of Doctor Burt
as suddenly as it had occurred to him.
“Now, there’s an idea,” McNamara
mumbled dazedly. “How long have you
been mulling it over?”
“Subconsciously, since you entered
the office. I caught a gleam in Lanny’s
eyes —and when she kissed you, the
subconscious crystalized into the con
scious.”
“I’ll think it over.”
“You’ll not think it over, Mac. You’ll
make up your mind now. And I can

never proffers her friendships or her
loves on the half shell. And there’s
still time, my boy, still time."
“Not if she goes to Paris."
“I’ve heard of police chiefs securing
i leave of absence for six months.”
“I couldn’t take a six months’ honey
moon to Paris, lad. I’ve saved eight
thousand dollars —”
"What? You a chief of police and
>nly worth eight thousand dollars?”
“God help me, boy, I’m honest.”
Stephen roared his merriment. “Why,
you great jackass, I know that. I
wouldn't let every man have Lanny.
But don’t you worry about money. Lan
ay is a business woman. She’s man
aged me since I was a boy, and that
Includes my finances. I’m loaded up
with good dividend paying stocks. You
know, I could be a mighty good friend
io the man who would be good to
Lanny.”
"I'll consider the proposition,” the
wutious Celt replied, “although I’d
rather be a bachelor than a disap
pointed lover.”
“Tell you what to do, Mac,” Stephen
advised. “Send her a nice photograph
of yourself. If she puts it in a silver
frame you may proceed with confi
dence.”
“How will I know, my boy?”
“If it’s in a silver frame on the
dressing table in her bedroom, it’ll be
a cinch.”
“How’ll I get into her bedroom, you
blockhead?"
“I’ll steal her latchkey and have a
duplicate made. Then you can investi
gate.”
McNamara rose and held out his
hand. “ 'Tis a pity, Stephen, my boy,
you aren’t in my detective bureau.
Good night.”
The annual parade of the police force
was but a week distant, and during
that week Dan lived entirely on orange
juice and spent his nights in a Turkish
bath. As a result he dropped eight
pounds off his northern elevation. Very
erect and martial he sat on a milk
white charger, while a photographer
took several exposures of him and his
command.
When the prints were delivered to
him, he sent them all to Lanny with
a note saying:
“Now that we are both in the same
crooked conspiracy, I thought you
might be interested in having the lat
est photograph of the biggest crook of
them all.”
The following day Stephen Burt sent
him a key, and the following after
noon McNamara let himself into Lan
ny’s house and discovered oue of the
photos on her dressing table —and in
a gold frame! Another print In a
silver frame appeared in her drawing
room.
“Holy Moses!” he soliloquized. “I’m
in for it now! God help me, there’s no
escape!”
CHAPTER IX
Upon his return to his office Mc-
Namara found in his mail a photo
graph of Lanny, indorsed: "To dear
old Dan —from his partner in crime—
Lanny." While he was gazing upon it
and telling himself how little justice
the portrait did the beloved subject
Stephen telephoned, demanding that he
come to the office.
Lanny was in tears. “I’ve just had
another visit from Mrs. Merton, Dan,”
Stephen began. “It seems that after
two years of inactivity, during which
time she had elected to believe Pene
lope Gatlin dead, she has developed a
crazy notion to prove it. She wants to
get Penelope’s fortune.”
“You questioned her about her
daughter?”
“Yes, but she doesn’t know it," said
Stephen. “I hypnotized her first and
spent an hour questioning her, and it
appears that this morning she visited
your captain of detectives and asked
him to throw out a dragnet to locate
Penelope Gatlin. She brought him
some snapshots of the girl—told him
her real name —all about her money—
the girl’s habits and peculiarities—
everything. When I’d discovered
enough to put Lanny in tears, I awak
ened Mrs. Merton and sent her away
happy, but with this command firmly
planted in her subconscious mind—she
must not think of the name Penelope
Gatlin. When I awakened her I asked
her if she had an adopted daughter.
She replied, surprised, that she had. I
then asked her the name of this adopt
ed daughter—and a look of terror came
over her face. For the life of her she
couldn’t think of the name and begged
me not to mention it if I knew it.”
“It's a pitj’ you didn't think of doing
that before she went to the detective
bureau with her information,” McNa
mara cried, and called up the Security
Trust company.
“The captain of detectives has pit
Flynn and Angelloti on the case,” he
announced drearily when he had hung
up, “and Flynn has already been to
the bank, making inquiries. When he
presented his credentials the cashier
showed him everything. They’ll iden
tify that girl as Nance Belden, trace
her to Paris as readily as I did, and
the French government will be notified
that Penelope Is an escaped convict
They will immediately deport her and
Flynn will meet her at Hoboken."
“But can’t you do anything about It,
Dan?” Lanny pleaded.
“Nothing! Flynn and Angel'oti are .
on the trail officially now.” He stared
at Lanny tragically. “I’m out of the
picture now and can do nothing but
advise you. Send two cables —one to
Nince Belden in Paris and the other
to Penelope Gatlin at the same ad
dress. Say: ‘Come at once —Lanny
dying—cable name vessel on which
leaving,’ and sign it 'Steve.'
“I’ll meet her at the dock,” Stephen
decided. “I’m due in New York next
week.”
“You’ll do nothing of the sort.” said
Dan. “I’ll send that convict in my
house.” He shuddered and grimaced
in his distress. "I could handle the
wop with money, but Flynn has sworn
an oath! And because I’ve made a
monkey out of him he’ll keep It. He’d
rather make a monkey out of me now
than acquire great riches —and if I’m
broke, most likely the captain of de
tectives will step into my shoes, and
Flynn will stand a good chance of be
coming captain of detectives. Oh, mur
deration, Lanny darling, have you a
little whisky in the house? I’m faint,
so I am.”
“You’re suffering from heart trouble,
you egg,” Lanny cried savagely. “Yes!
A weak heart, a soft heart, a human
heart.”
"Send that cable,” he roared.
“Yes, get busy, Lanny,” Stephen
urged. “The bird of time has but a
little way to flutter—and the wretched
fowl is on the way.”
After Dan McNamara had left
his office, Doctor Stephen Burt gazed
with mild disapproval upon Lanny.
“Unlike you and Dan McNamara,”
he said, “I dislike having the peaceful
tenor of my life disturbed.”
“This intrigue is myrrh and incense
to me, Stevie.” •
“I know it. You and Dan love a
fight for its own sweet sake, but I do
not. I have a particular aversion to
grand jury indictments, and it is a pos
sibility you and your boy friend have
let me in for.”
“Fiddlesticks!"
"Lanny, I’ll be angry with you in a
minute. Now, listen to me, and what
ever you do, do not talk back. Dan
McNamara has run out on us. I mean
you. He’s through. Dan's rattled. If
he hadn’t been he’d never have or
dered the sending of such a fool cable
gram.”
“Dan McNamara knows his way
about,” Lanny defended. “He’s more
than nine years old.”
“So do I. Lanny, it will be highly
dangerous to send that cablegram.
How Is she to know it isn't a message
to decoy her back to the penitentiary?
If she receives it while she’s Penelope
Gatlin, she is extremely liable to cable
for confirmation before acting on it
That would mean a delay of not less
than twenty-four hours. On the other
hand, if she is Nance Belden when she
receives it, she will leave Paris openly
and walk right into the hands of the
New York police. I’m not much of a
detective, but tonight I’m a better one
than that McNamara idiot.”
“He’s not an idiot He's one of the
finest men I ever knew.”
“Keep quiet," he ordered severely.
“You ditch my train of thought."
He drew a sheet of paper toward him
and commenced writing, while Lanny
glowered at him. Presently he sat up
and read:
“Grave danger stop beat it some
other country traveling by motor stop
upon arrival cable address stop if need
funds will cable them stop leave Paris
establishment going concern stop go
out for walk and disappear stop unless
these Instructions followed you leave
trail for persecutors to follow.
"Mac.”
He looked up. “How do those in
structions strike you?”

The “liquid test”
... it ENDS bowel worries
for many people
This is a test that tells you whether
the system needs a cathartic change.
If you have constant sluggish spells
or bilious attacks, and laxatives seem
to make things worse, it would be
wise to try this:
Stop all use of any laxative that
does not encourage variation from a
“fixed dose” (which may be entirely
too large a dose for your individual
need). Use instead, a liquid laxative
that you can measure and regulate
as to dose. As necessary to repeat.
take smaller doses, less and less often,
until the bowels are moving withor*
any help at all.
Doctors use liquid laxatives, and
a properly prepared liquid laxative,
containing natural laxative agents
like senna and cascara is a ioy and
a comfort; a real help in establishing
regularity. Ask your dobtor about
this! (Doctors use liquid laxatives.)
You can get Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup
Pepsin, which is a most dependable
liquid laxative, at any drug store.
