.BEGIN PERE TODAY
Captain john Hewitt, Commission-
er of Police at Jesselton, British
North Borneo, has a beautiful widow-
ed cotter, Monica V,ney, She loves
Peter Pennington, who is detailed by
the government to- anprehend Chad=
Hung, leader of The Yellow' Seven. a
gang of Chinese bandits. Pennington
warns Ilyde and Hyde's daughter,
Dora Bateson, against the bandits.
They receive the Yellow Seven card
and chase the Chinese .house -boy and
his companion, only to have them dis-
appear when almost within their
grasp.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
"Pity you couldn't have thought all
this out before," he grumbled. Pres-
ently, as the tobacco caught, his head
came slowly round until his puzzled
eyes fell upon these of his companion.
"Why do you suppose they wanted to
get us out of the way?"
Chinese Pennington rose wearily.
"I don't know," he admitted, "but
I've a queer feeling in my bones that
the sooner we're back again -the
better."
Hyde, glancing at his watch, was
amazed to discover that it was close
upon one o'clock. He turned to Pen-
nington.
"There's a shorter cut, if we bear
to the right. We should strike the
railway In under half -en -hour."
Twenty yards from the boundary
wire, a man on a pony almost rode
them down. Both men stepped hastily
from the track and the newcomer,
pulling up abruptly, slid to the ground
and confronted them. It was Bateson,
hatless, his straw-colored hair stand-
in galmost an end. •
"Is that you, Hyde?" he cried
hoarsely.
"You can make yourself easy on
that score," the manager assured him
Pennington, an uncomfortable sen-
sation passing down his spine, inter-
,Yened,
He dropped a heavy hand on to
Bateson's shoulder.
"What's wrong?" ho demanded. ,
The assistant swallowed something
in hie throat.
"It's Dora. She's disappeared 1"
"Disappeared!" It was Hyde who
spoke. "But, man alive!-" A glance
from Pennington checked further ut-
terance.
"When did she go out?" he said,
rolling a cigarette, his eyes fixed on
Bateson all the while,
"About ten. I was busy on the
verandah with a couple of menders
figuring out some work r wanted to
get through tomorrow. I gathered
that she was going to see you. She
carried a small. parcel In her hand
and I remember expressing curiosity
as to its contents. She told me it was
something you had asked for." '
Peniington started.
"Something I had asked for," he
echoed incredulously, and then his
face dropped. "What was it like?"
Bateson appeared to reect.
"It .was only a small thing," he'
said, "and I couldn't see it very clear-
ly. It looked to me like a fan."
Pennington caught Hyde's arm and
held it tightly.
llon't jump at conclusions," he
'whispered reassuringly, seeing that
the other had gone deathly white,
"Have you been to Hyde's bungalow,
Bateson?"
"Yes. I've only just come from
there. There was a watchman on duty
outside. Dora had been there, had
waited 'for about an' hour -and had
gone out on foot... That's what I can't
make out. I found her pony tethered
where she had left it. The watchman
did not think it his place to question
her. The moon was, well up when -she
left, and he was under the impression
she was looking for' something she had
lost. It's a queer business altogether,"
he added helplessly. "The watchman
told me she had both arms out-
stretched infront of her, and that
she chose a path of her own between
the trees."
"Yes," broke in Hyde. impatiently.
"What then?" '-
"I found a 'hurricane -lamp and
started o8 in the direction he indi-
cated. At . first her footsteps were
pretty clearly marked, but after a
hundred yards or so they petered out
altogether. It seemed as if the earth
had been freshly raked over, for an
appreciable distance, and then I ran
across other tracks which„ when fol-
lowed, only brought mo back to the
spot from which I'd started." He
shuddered involuntarily, "Penning-
ton, what on earth does It all mean?'
"It means that your wife has been
kidnapped by the Y'oIlow Seven and
that there's no sleep for any of ua
until we get her basic, Youfound
nothing on the path, nothing that
could be of assibtancga"
Bateson shook his head•. He dived
a hand into a side -pocket and produc-
ed a crumpled mania ei' cane ani] cloth,

stood quietly grazing. Hyde peered
over his shoulder,
"What is it " he inquired huskily.
"I can't answer you yet. I daren't.
It's nothing -or everything. Strike a
light, one of you."
"I can tell you what's on it," jerked
out Bateson suddenly. "It's a Jap-
anese fan -the thing, I imagine, that
Dora was bringing to you. There's a
photograph on it -of Island N. That's
all." ,
Pennington gave a wild cry.
"Hyde," ,he shouted, "muster every
watchman you've got; send out an
urgent S. 0. S. to your assistants,
Don't trust a soul that you have not
the utmost confidence in or we're lost.
There's a score of native fishermen
at the water's edge. Commandeer
their canoes and get across to the is-
land -as soon as you can. Then take
cover. AAs soon as you hear me fire,
come. Ie that quite -clear?"
The planter reached out for the
reins of Bateson's pony.
"Perfectly. What about you? How
are you goin„'to get across?"
"That's my ailair. But when you
come, don't look for Chinese Penning-
ton. Search around for 'He Who Sees
in the Dark,' the Chinaman with the
scarred face, whom I think you have
already met."
He grinned Lroadly-- and wat gone.
, n a s *
The oil lamp flared up suddenly and
Dora Bateson, crouching in a corner
of the hut, saw the ponderous form of
Chat -Hung creeping through th•: nar-
row aperture. He rose presently to
his feet and sat heavily upon a black -
mood stool that was the only piece of
furniture of which the hovel boasted.
"Good evening, Mrs. Bateson, he
began in a grating voice. "You are
wondering no doubt why I have
Chai-Hung positively beamed. -
brought you here, and what I am go-
ing to do with you?"
"I'm not the least bit afraid of you,
Mr. Chai-Hung," retorted the girl
steadily. •She shifted into a, more
comfortable position on the rotting
boards and, looking upward, caught a
glimpse of a star -lit heaven through a
spot in the roof whei-e the steps had
fallen away.
Dora Bateson was afraid of sha-
dows, but the substance held no ter-
rors for her, The harsh voice of the
notorious bandit, the trick he had of
contracting his pupils until' they be-
came like points, of fire -inspired her
with a certain, inexplicable fear; but
she was by no means afraid of • Chai-
Hung himself.
-"How did you get one here?" she
demanded presently.
'Chef -Hung smiled blandly.
"It was exceedingly simple, Mrs:
Bateson. If you, are able to remem-
ber anything, you will admit that you
started out apparently of your own
accord. That is what we term -The.
Fan Trick.
Dora's brow wrinkled.
"The Fan Trick!" Her eyes spark-
led with the light of sudden knowl-
edge. "Then I am on Island N1" he
exclaimed. "Aren't you a trifle un-
wise, Mr. Chai-Hung, in selecting a
hiding -place so near to the mainland?"
Chai-Hung positively beamed. .
"Not in the Ieaet, my dear lady. Of
all my enemies, there is only one that
I have any cause to fear. They cali
him 'He Who Sees in the Dark,' but
you would recognize him more readily
under his real name -Chinese Pen-
nington." He paused . to ob erve the
eeet of his words, but tl�e1I con,

her eyes wide-open like sanders, she
could have sworn that the stranger
winked at her.
"Good night, Mr, Bateson," Choi=
Hung was saying. "I am going to

And then an arra like a steel wire
encircled his neck and he fell to the
floor with a thud,
It seemed an eternity before Chi-
nese Pennington fixed one knee firmly
on the bandit's throat and, groping ill
h's rags, fired deliberately at the lit-
tle patch in the roof where the sago
leaves had been torn away.

A Girl's Bedroom -
Every girl should have a room of
her own, almost as soon as she has
passed beyond babyhood days. No
Matter how, congenial and well -loved
one's family may be, a place all one's
own is necessary to health and
growth of soul.
Lillian Montagne, in the current is-
sue of "Your Home Magazine," gives
some useful advice on the problem of
decorating a girl's room.
"In planning a girl's room," she
writes, "avoid the excitement of vivid
red and the depressing effect of a pre-
ponderance of purple, dull gray,
brown or black. There is a quality in
young girlhood which responds to the
delicate pastel coloring of spring. The
faraway, misty blue of the sky, the
tender green of the opening leaves,
the pale yellow of the early crocus,
the faintly roseate tint of the arbutus.

of these shades. used either singly or
in combination to decorate the room
of a jeunne 1111e will awaken In her a
quick response to the grace and
beauty which they express. Painted
walls are particularly -desirable for
bedrooms, because not only are they
more sanitary but they may be easily
and artistically tinted to harmonize
with any color scheme you may se-
lect. Ween ,,the walls are finished,
paint or enamel the trim the same
color, or white if you prefer Tit, and
paint or 'varnish the floor according
to the wood. A floor treated this way
1s easy to care for and needs only one
or tato small rugs.
"Where there is plenty of sunshine,"
continues the writer, "the cool quiet,
but happy shades of green, lilac and
blue are good background colors. And
while blue may not be uses done,
blue and gold, rose and blue, or or-
chid and blue are effective combina-
tions for the young girl's room, An
especially lovely color scheme would
be apricot and delphinium blue, the
former in a very soft shade being
used se o he walls, the latter to
enamel the woodwork and furniture.

Kitchen Beauty
Kitchens are no longer an important
item in the decorative scheme of the
home. To -day the old idea that it
doesn't matter what the workshop of
the house looks like so long as what
comes out of it 1s nice no longer pre-
vails, Today housewives believe that
an attractive kitchen not only makes
work easier and a better impression
on friends, but also improves the foods
that are prepared there.
"Is your kitchen," asks the "Suc-
cessful Farming" Writer, "of the dark
and dingy dull brown variety with
dark -finished walls and woodwork, a
dull brown linoleum, black stove,
sink, pots and pans, with never a
spark of color to relieve the monot-
ony? Or has it advanved ono step
into the hospital variety with white
ture. If small rag rugs -always ap- walls and woodwork, white sink,
propriate for a bedroom -are used, tables, pots, pane and curtains, which
they may combine apricot, blue, or- most certainly suggest the operating
chid, and black in subdued colors. room? Or has your kitchen caught
the spirit of the new age and taken
unto itself a rainbow of charming
colors, relieving all signs of monotony
and suggesting anything but drudg-
ery? The kitchen, as any other room,
to have a well-balanced color scheme,
must employ three or more colors,
and must have various and correct
proportions of red, yellow and blue,
but In combinations. Of course, one
color should predominate and be used
in greater proportions than the other
colors. This predominating color
should be restful rather than too slim•
ulatiag, as soft green, blue-green, yel-
low, warm gray, bug or ivory."

But Still Interepid Icarus
Ah, what is this you draw ashore
Encrusted with the bitter brine?

How can a fisher's net confine
A wing whose passion was to soar?
What monstrous fate, what demon

Condemned it to the hungry spray?
This net has never held a' prey
That told so tragical a tale.
But still intrepid Icarus
Must seek the sun and perish thus!

Baby Care
When baby develops a "summer
complaint," don't blame the heat or
the humid -weather, rather' blame
yourself, Nine times: out of tea,, ac-
cording to Dr. Edmund C. Gray, writ-
ing in the current ''Physical, ulture '
Magazine," so -Called "summer Com-
plaints" are the result of improper
feeding, airing or bathing.
"There are few disturbances of
babies and children," writes Dr. Gray,
Itthat can appear during the summer.
and at eo other time of the year,
though some are much more mono
to develop in' hot months, There can-
not be a summer diarrhoea in th'e
winter, of course, but the same symp-
toms. that appear during what is call-
ed summer diarrhoea smaY develop in
other months of the -year if the causes
are present.
"Prom whatever cause, the baby
who gets into its stomach too much
sugar is doomed, to some disturbance.
Diarrhoea; dyspepsia, cold sores, skin
troubles are among the troubles that
may result. Giving babies starchy
foods will have about the same effect
as will an excess of sugar. Sugar is
a natural element in milk, and a baby
needs it. But starch is not needed
at all. A baby's digestive apparatus
15 not prepared for handling starch
until it 3s one and one -bait or two
years old.
"Sugar, starch and, fat are 'heating'
foods. Even adults need lase of them
during the summer than during the
cooler months. Thore is enough heat
provided by tho aim to take care of
baby's heat requirements In summer,
unless sometimes during sickness.
"Babies do' --not need any protein
other than that in milk," continues
the "Your Horne" expert, "until they
are two or three years of age. If
given in babyhood or early childhood
1t is certain to give riee to trouble.
"Much of the summer disturbances
of babies," Dr. Gray -declares, "would
be prevented if babies were given
more fruit. They should have all they
will take eagerly, Any of the fresh
summer fruits, also berries (pulped
and seeded), will agree well .with milk
and be relished by babies, though
they should not be given with sugar
or combined with . starch. Many
babies are killed because they are
fed milk when all in the world they
want is water. Babies should have all
the water they will drink, especially
in the summer time. The water must
not be iced or very cold, and Its source
must be known to be free from con-
tamination."

Frozen Desserts
Are Simple
A simple frozen dessert is no harder
to make than many poi -tidings and
most pies. Frozen foods should be
offered more frequently for salads
and desserts. They are cooling and
healthful, and when we rid ourselves
of the idea that they are difficult of
accomplishment, their preparation will
not seem a burden,
The Chief thing is to Have utensils
that aro adequate, conveniently at
hand, and in good order. Conventional
necessities, other than the freezer, are
rock salt, ice, a heavy mallet, stout
bag and measure. Proportions of ice
and salt are three measures of finely.

Water ices are easily made without
recipes by freezing an extra and rather
rich fruit drink of sugar, fruit juice
and ice water. A good general rule
is as follows: Boil one cupful of
water, and a little lemon juice_...
Sherberts are made by adding the
beaten whites of one egg to this foun-
dation recipe. Simple ice creams, not
too rich, but delicious, may have a
flavored custard for a foundation. My
recipe is as follows: To one pint of
boiling hot milk in the double boiler
add two eggs beaten slightly with one
cupful of sugar, a pinch of salt and
two tablespoonfuls of flour. Shake the
sugar and flour together before mix -

The New Mode
New frocks are known by scarf
necks, their tiers and the up -in -front,
down -in -back hemline.
Transplant rayon velvet with the
colors and flowered design usually as-
sociated with chiffon is as new as the
season.
Selvedge -bordered fabrics are new.

of the new formal fashions revolve.

ent maxim of evening dress, and of

The simple etralghtline coat is in-
diepensible for trips to town, for
shopping, and for week-opde.
The tie -around skirt that dips sharp-

way of creating an uneven hdnrline
for an afternoon Ixock of the more
formal type. -(From Delineator Maga-

Color Ca; itions
1. No one person can wear' all colors
successfully,
2. The color and texture of tthe:
skin determines the color most suit-
able for clothing. A. person with an
olive brunette skin, for example, can
wear deep creams, bronze greens,
deep dark red, even purple in some
tones. If the skin is not flnein tex-
ture these colors may still be worn,
but they must be subdued and soften,
ed, "grayed down" in other words, so
tbat they do not contrast too strongly
with the skin. A skin that is more,
pink than yellow can wear pastel
colorings best of all. Such skins usu-
ally have blue, hazel, or very clear -
brown eyes. They may have blond,.
hazel, white or black hair. A sallow'
skin can • wear dark browns and
black perhaps better than any other
color.
3. Subdued or grayed colors aro
most becoming to large figures.
4. Colors should be chosen to bring-
out
ringout the beet features of the Individual
either the skin, the hair, or the eyes.
If the skin Is fine, you may -wear satin,.
or velvet, or a non -transparent materi-
al with a sheen. If the texture of your
skin Is coarse, georgette, dull crepe,
or crepe Elizabeth would be more be-
coming.
5. Gayer colors may be worn more.
successfully by young girls, but the In-
tense or pure colors should be avoid -
Id since they are becoming to very
few.
6. Bright colors, if carefully chosen,
are quite suitable for sport clothes and
evening gowns,
7. Study carefully your own color-
ing and choose those most suitable for
your own type, age, and position.

Sunlight
L. V. Dodds in Science Progreso
(London): In a country such`as Eng-
land, where the population is being
crowded more, and more into towns,
and where even country dwellers aro.
deprived of sunlight through the
vagaries of climate, the practical value
of artificial sunlight in preventing the
onset of disease, and restoring health
in such a wide range of conditions, Is
quite sufficient, apart from the many
technical uses, to warrant the exten-
sive installation of apparatus In in-
dustrial concerns throughout the coun-
try. This will compensate for our
dark winter climate and indoor life,
and the benefit will be both immediate
and permanent.
