troubles by taking
Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound so I threw away
the medicines the doctor left me and be-
gan taking the Compound. Before I

Ephrata, Pa.—"About a year ago I
was down with nervous prostration. I
was pale and weak and would have hys-

pain under my shoulder -blade. I was
under the care of different doctors but
did not improve. I was so weak I could
hardly stand long enough todo mydishes.

Deeper Waters.
This message, so condensed that for.
a moment Van Vechten believed it to
be in code, contained more than one
incomprehensible but none the less
pregnant item. The line of perplexity
between his brows deepened, as he
continued to stare at it, while Tom
looked on and fidgeted with curiosity.
' "Withypool," Van Vechten voiced
mystification—"seems to me I've
heard that name before—I'm sure I
have—but hanged if I can associate it
with anything definite. And who the
.deuce is Fotheringill?"
He handed the slip of paper over to
Tom. The items began to appear
slowly by degrees.
"Withypool—Withypool," he repeat,
,ed in an effort to spur his memory --
"where and when did I ever hear that
;name? It's not one that Paige men,
'tioned. Must be some town in Somer.
'set."
"And two ladies," supplemented
Tom in mock admiration, "answering•
to the description of your cousin and
,Mrs. Devereaux were there some time
in July. What a ripping Sherlock
Holmes you are!"
Van Vechten surveyed him with un-
seeing eyes. After a moment—
"Say," he began with considerable;
energy. "Tom, if they were Paige
and Jo, why should it be so difficult to
determine their identities positively?
Were they trying to hide? And if so,
from whom?"
"You can search me," Tom offered
dispiritedly.
Van Vechten took the message and
IDored over it again.
"Five hundred pounds reward!" he
(groaned after a minute. "Great
if3cott, Tom! How luridly the papers
;will blossom now, for the blessed
,,DDuz'sle is fair game at last for them.
Who has authorized anyone to offer a
reward, I'd like to know? And what
itwo weeks in July were these two rays-,
Iterlous ladies at Withypool? Am I to
infer that they and Mrs. and Mise
Schuyler are the same?—that Paige
and Joe sailed home incog the eighth
of last month?"
"That's what it says," replied Tom.
j "In a way, yes. But this sheet of de-
formed intelligence is more remark,
table for what it does not say than for
'what it says. Schuyler, you know,
'was Mrs. Devereaux's maiden name.'
Tom's eyes opened. "By Georgel"
he exclaimed wonderingly. "So ill
was!"
"Well," tartly, "does the cir'cunal
stance suggest anything to Yon?"
But Tom merely stood silent a eec
and wagging his herid. "No. It's only
little more ,'Huddling, is all I can mak;
of it."
"Here it is the fifth of September,"
Van Vechten's summarizing went on;
"where, in heaven's name, have they
been all this time? Where are they
now?"
"Moses and green spectacles, Rud-
dy!" burst Porth Tom in desperation.
"You'll give yourself a headache if you,
keep on asking questions that nobody
can answer! Her let's sit down at
this table and have something to
drink; maybe that'll help. You can
think things over, anyhow."
Van Vechten all of a sudden experi-
enced a let -down from the high ten-
sion under which he had been labor -i
ing ever since the cablegram's arrival ,
,
and immediately the drawn lines about
his mouth, and the restless shifting oft
his eyes, disclosed hie growing bur -i
den of anxiety; even to Tom's unob-;
servant regard it was laid bare how,
deeply the baffling mystery—the un-,
irtainty of his cousin's fate—had of -i
acted his whole being.
"Steady, old man," Tom mur-
mured sympathetically. "Try a little
nerve tonic. Brace up."
They sat down.
"I don't want anything to drink,"I
Van Vechten declined the offer, ':but,
I will gladly smoke a big black cigar.!
!Perhaps it will clear away some ori
ithe cobwebs."
Tom, ever a model of abstemious
mess, contented himself with .a mild
and ladylike thimble of Curacao.
Then they took up the subject of the
(cablegram again. Van Vechten flat -
;toned the paler upon the table;.
!propped his elbows at either end and.
;grasped his hair firmly with both
hands, the cigar smoke forming a blue'
halo about his head. He gave himself
!up to, the serious bueineaa of inter-
'pretig and assimilating the disquiet -
Ing, unfathomable information from
overseas. '
The operation, manifestly, was not
very satisfactory, for by and by he
uttered another groan, tossed away his
half -smoked cigar and once more sat
upright,
"What—" he began, but his com-
panion promptly checked him.
"Now you etop right there," com
snanded Tom. "If you want to fire any
more questions, suppose you try 'em
out on Uncle Theodore. Ring him up."
The other smiled wanly, and a spark
of his customary sprightly humor
'flashed again.
"Bright boy," he said. "If I pos
eessed your practical mind I would not
be so woozy over this thing. But you
are an, inspiration, Tommy—why
didn't I think of it before? 'Fother-
ingill must be one of Uncle Theodore's,
agents."
After some delay, Uncle Theodore's
voice came over the wire. He also had
received the cryptic message, but cer-
tain portions of it obscure to Rudolph
;,'were more or less clear to him.
' The surmise respecting Fotheringili
sled been a pretty shrewd one. That
g.entlernan, it appeared, was a member.

bars, the Man of Iron's principal Brit•.
ish representatives. He had been in-
structed to send all messages in dupll-
jcate—ono for the elder Van Vechten's
'information, the other for Rudolph's
'guidance. The latter learned further
that all other information likewise
Iwas to be sent to him.
"Lord, Uncle Theodore!" Rudolph
lamented into the mouthpiece, "the
newspapers will now be justified in
stirring up whatever scandal they may
conceive!"
"Are you afraid of them?" demand -
led his uncle sharply.
"No, no; of course not. It's Paige I'm
thinkiog of. Think what her feelings
must be when she sees all the rot
that's being printed about. her."
He heard the older man grunt. "A
precious lot of consideration she has
shown for our feelings," he said, "But
you are mistaken; the newspapers
may be our beet allies, and it is not
good policy to antagonize them at this
stage.
"Frankly," the incisive voice went
on, "I am now exceedingly worried; if
there were not so many vital business
matters exacting my personal atten-
tion—things I can't neglect because
they involve the welfare of others—I
would drop everything and tape up
,the search myself. But I must leave
,that part of it to you; I know you will
!be diligent."
Rudolph assured him on this point,
,adding: "But my hands are so hope-
lessly tied by the utter absence of a
starting -point; there is nothing to
take hold of, nowhere to begin. Why,
haven't evolved even a tentative
theory yet. What the devil does it all
mean anyway? Have Paige and Jo-
sephine both lost their minds?"
No answering oracle came over the
'wire, and the Man of Iron uttered Isis
Parting injunction: "Wee your best
1judgment; spare no expense."
Van Vechten emerged from the
stuffy booth and shook his head like a
;swimmer far out at sea, who, while
not sighting land, despairs not, but
struggles bravely on. The entrance
of Mr, Flint at this critical period had
the soothing effect of a balm. His
!manner was.so quiet and unobtrusive,
so methodical and unruffled, and with-
al so confident, that one's plight must
be desperate indeed for one not to
respond to the inspiriting influence of
his presence,
"Well, so you have turn up at
last," Van Vechten greeted ij re sours
ly, "Good heavens, marl Why don't
you keep in touch with civilization
when you efface yourself from the
world?"
"This is the first opportunity I have
found for communicating with you
since we parted last," was the calm
response. "Don't fear but that I shall
keep in touch with you, for the way
matters are shaping it begins to look
as though I shall need your assist•
anee pretty constantly."
Van Vechten bent eagerly across
the table.
"Have you learned anything?" he de.
manded.
"Yes -and no. Nothing definite
about Mies Carew. But I have un-
earthed a good many facto which may
er may not have a bearing on our in-
vestigation—for I am including the
mystery of your cousin's disappear-
ance with the mystery of Sunday's
murder. There's a connecting link
somewhere, although I haven't hit
upon it. The dead man's identity has
been established."
Both young men looked, an interro-
gation, and Mr. Flint proceeded.
"Now that we have learned who he
is, the facts tend to confuse rather
than to enlighten; there is no hole
where he fits in. It 'would seem that
he was rather a worthless sort, an
expert mechanic, but at outs with his
union and discredited generally by in-'
dustrious members of his trade. His

ly exposed?" he asked, "But, truly,
:I don't comprehend your question,"
"They have' cabled Central Office,"
Mr, Flint explained, "a half-dozen
times today for information. The aft-
ernoon's extras mention a reward—
twenty-five hundred dollars—being of-
fered in London for information of
Miss Carew. That would account for
their sudden interest."
By way of answer the young man
handed him the cablegram from Foth-
ertngill. Mr, Flint glanced at it; then
he sat up with a jerk and his eyes
narrowed to mere slits. He pondered
the text for some time while the two
young men watched him in silent cu-
riosity,
- "Well," he breathed at last, return-
ing the message, "here is one more
link in the chain -not a very definite
one, but an additional small detail that
associates Miss Carew directly with
your house of mystery."
Van Vechten stared in wonder at
the slip of paper. Tom abruptly ex-
claimed: "How the dickens do you
make that out?"
But Mr. Flint was not to be hurried.
"While there may be nothing so
very mysterious about the house it-
self," he pursued evenly,"nevertheless
It is by way of promising us a very
pretty problem indeed. Does the name
'Withypool' signify anything in partic-
ular to you?"
"Nothing definite; it is familiar,
that is all."
"Withypool," repeated Mr, Flint,
musingly. "I have had occasion to look
it up."
"You have!" shot from Van Vech-
ten in his surprise. "What do you
know, Flint? Tell it!"
"It s
"It's a little village in Somerset—
on the edge of Exmoor forest—per-
haps one of the prettiest regions in
rural England. Still does the name
convey nothing to your mind? Think!"
Here Tom Phinney interjected:
"Ruddy thought it was confoundedly
familiar when he read the message."
'While Van Vechteu tried his best to
recall the associations which the name
all but evoked, SIr, Flint sat shrewdly
contemplating him,
"I give it up," declared the young
man at length. "Go on and tell it—
why you jumped so when you read the
message. 'What's the answer?"
"I said that it was a pretty spot"—
the man's deliberation was provoking
—"an ideally desirable location for a
'home—regular old-fashioned English
;country, home, you know—gables,
chimney -pots, ivy, deer -park, hedges,
and all that sort of thing. For in-
stance—"
"Confound you, Flint! Out with it!"
"Mr. Temple Bonner's."
For a moment the two young men
'sat staring speechlessly at the un-
moved detective. Then Van Vechten
smote the table with his fist.
"By George!" ejaculated he, vehe-
mently but not loudly. "Th:,_'s it!
The very thing that's been chasing
round in my skull!" He proceeded;
more calmly.
"But, Flint, admitting that one of
the two ladies mentioned here is my.

ORANGE SEEDLINGS.
Must Be Grafted When About Two
Years Old to Obtain Flowers.
Orange plants thrive in a mixture of
rich loam and old manure, but care
15 necessary not to disturb them or to
give them too much water when not in
a growing state.
Oranges raised from seed will not
flower for several years unless budded
or grafted when about two years old.,
Plants propagated from cuttings can
be stuck in sand with gentle bottom
heat and will flower and fruit much
'sooner than any others, but scarcely,:
ever attain a large size.
Florists would pot two inch orange'
plants in thumb pots. These dry out
quickly, and the amateur grower will.
probably do better by potting two or
three plants in a three inch pot, latet
repotting separately when the plants'
are larger. It will do to pot them sep-
arately then if desired in three inch
pots.
Keep the foliage clean by frequent
spraying or washing and watch fon
scal9:and lice.

DONT GIVE
CONSUMPTION A CHANCE
To Get a Foothold on Your System.
Check the First Sign of a Cold
By Using,
D R. W n O'A'S
NO WAY PINE SYRUP.
A cold, if neglected, will sooner or later
develop into some sort of lung trouble,
so we would advise you that on the first
sign of a cold or cough you get rid of it
immediately. For this purpose we know
of nothing better than Dr: Wood's
Norway Pine Syrup. This preparation
has been on the market for the past
twenty-five years, and those who have
used it have nothing but words of praise
for its efficacy.
Mrs. H. N. Gill, Truro, N.S., writes:
"Last January, 1913, T developed an
awful cold, and it hung on to me for so
long I was afraid it would turn into
consumption. I would go to bed nights;
and could not get any sleep at all for the
choking feeling in my throat and lungs,
and sometimes I would cough till I
would turn black in the face. A friend
came to see me, and told me of your
remedy, Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup,
I got a bottle of it, and after I had taken
it I could see a great change for the better,
so I got another, and when 1 had taken
the two bottles my cough was all gone,
and I have never had an attack of it since,
,
and that is now a year ago."
Dr. Wood's Norway Pine Syrup input
up in a yellow wrapper;, three pine trees
the trade mark; and price, 25c and 50c.
It is manufactured only by The T.

INDOOR PLANTS.
Dry Air May Be Artificially Moistened.
For Their Benefit.
One reason why many plants die in
the house during the winter is because
of steam heat This is the driest of all
kinds of heat, giving out absolutely no
moisture, but quickly drying out all
dampness in the air of a room. Elven
with the windows open the fresh sup-
ply 01 moist air coming in is not suffi-
cient to combat the drying process of
the steam heat.
To remedy this the plant owner must
provide the moisture for the air. By
theradiators the
a cloths
laying wet on
heat coming forth will be moist heat,
which is not half so harmful- either to
plant or to person as the dry kind.
These cloths will have to beremoisten-
ed often. It depends largely on the
amount of bent in the radiator.
This will do much to keep the indoor
plants alive through the winter. The
rest depends on the watering. One
