BEGIN HERE TO -DAY.
Robert Redmayne, roaming at large,
is suspected of the murder of Michael
Peudean, husband of Jenny, who is
niece to Robert. Mark Brendon crim-
inal investigator, is in charge of the
case.
Jenny goes to live with her 'uncle,
Bendigo Redmayne. Robert appears
in the neighborhood apd sends word to
Bendigo to meet him in a nearby cave.
Giuseppe Doria, vrho works for Ben-
digo, takes his master to the meeting
place. When Doria calls to, bring Ben-
digo home he finds an empty cave in
which is evidence of a struggle.
Jenny marries Darla and they go to
live in Italy, where Jenny's uncle, Al-
bert Redmayne, lives. When Robert is
seen in Italy, Brendon and the famous
American detective, Peter Ganns, re-
new investintions.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY.
"On the contrary I want you both,"
he answered. "I attach very great
weight to the hints you have given me

Redillayne was• in the highest
•epirite in del,ighted to be home ;Again,
He knell' nothing about Peter's opera-
tions and cared less, His visit to
Bagland was spent at London, where
he had renewed aequaintanc� with
certain book colleethre, seen and
handled massy precious things, and
surprised and gratified himself to ob-
serve Ids own physical energies and
enterprise.
Be made a good meal, and then,
despite the long night in the train, in-
sisted on sending for a boat and cress.-
ing the -water to Beilagio.
"I have a preeent for my Poggi," he`
said, ?and I unmot. sleep netil I bear
'his voice and hold his hand."
Ernesto went for a waterman and
soon a boat waited at the steps which
descended from Mr, Redmayne's pri-
vate apartments to the lake. Ile row-
ed away and Brendon, who had come
to see Doria and found to his surprise
that Redmayne and Peter were back
again, anticipated some private hours
with Mr. Ganus. But the traveler was
weary and, after one of .A.ssunta's fa-
mous omelettes and three glasses of
white wine, he declared that he must
retire and sleep as long as nature
ordained slumber.
"I'm exceedingly short of Test," he
said. 4'Whether I have done the least
good by my inquiries remains to be
seen. To be frank, I doubt it. We'll
have a talk to -morrow, Mark; and
maybe Doria will remember a thing or
two that happened at 'Crow's Nest'
and so help nae. But until I have slept
I am useless."
On the following day it was Mr.
Redmayne who found himself weary.
Reaction came and he slept all that
night and d4errnined to keep his bed
for twenty-four hours. It seemed,
plied Mark, "and I've made a stupid
mistake. You must pay all attention
to what I'm going to tell you, Doria,
for we can't say who is in danger now
and who is not. The shot that very
nearly ended my career yesterday
might just as easily have been aimed
at you, had you been in my place,"
"A shot? Not the red man? A
smuggler perhaps? You may have
stumbled upon some of them, and
knowing no Italian—"
"It was Robert Redmayne who fired
upon me and missed by a miracle."
Jenny uttered an exclamation of
fear. "Thank God!" she said under
her breath.
Brendan told the story in every de-
tail and explained his own ruse. He
related nothing but the truth—up to
a certain pLint; but beyond that he
described events that had not taken
place.
"Having made the faked figures, I
hid just before dusk fairly close to it

Again she hesitated and gazed in-
tently upon him.
"Are you sure that you are wise?
Would Mr. Ganns like you to tell
Doria anything?"
"You will ,:edge better when' you
have heard me."
Again he longed to confide in her
and show her that he understood the
truth; but two considerations shut his
mouth: the thought of Peter Ganns
and the reflection that the more Jenny
knew, the greater might be her own
peril. This last conviction made him
conclude their conference.
"Call him. We must not let him
think that we have anything of a pri-
vate nature to say to each other. It
is vital that he should not imagine
such a thing."

Jenny looked at her husband and

But Giuseppe appeared more interest-
ed at what had already happened to
Brendon than in 'what was next to
happen. He asked many questions, to
which Mark was able to return true
replies'. Then he declared that he
would accompany the detective to the
scene of his adventure.

What is "Insulin"?
In the body there is a large eland,
known as the panceass, intimately
concerned with the digestive' process-
es. Imbedded in the pancreas are lit-
tle collections of cells called "islets"
which produce a secretion. The pur-
pose of this secretion is to burn tip the
sugar in the body.
When these islets fail in their work
of prod.ucing the secretion, sugar ac-
cumulates in the blood, and n'terrible
disease known as diabetes follows.
A few years ago it was discovered
that an artificial "secretion," so to
speak, may be injected into tho suf-
ferer, to ,make up for the lack of na-
toral secretion This is known as in-
sulin—derived from "Insulae," the
medical term for the islets. It is pre-
pared from the pancreatic glands of
certain animals.
