"That will do, John," motioned
Mrs, Walden.
There was something in her tone
that checked Garrick front insisting'
on the pursuit of the identity of the
mystery girl.
McKay touched his hat and return-
ed to his ear quicker than he had
left it.
Garrick turned keenly toward Mrs.
Walden. "What does Ruth say? Who
was up there? Was she in the tower?"
Mrs. Walden looked away and mur-
mured. "Ruth refuses to say any-
thing."
"Was it Glenn in the tower?"
Nita was getting more nervous by
the second. "She won't say," she re-
plied in a hoarse whisper.
"H'm" consi'der;ed Garrick. "It
comes down to whether it is another
crime in the wave of crime that has
been hitting eruntry places this sum-
mer—os is it a job pulled off with the
assista.c of someone at the danced"
Nita Walden shook off a restraint,
as ii it had been a wrap. She had
come at last to the real point that
had led her to seek Garriek's counsels
and now stood trembling as if on a
springboard above the water.
"This morning," she blurted out in
"Who are these dancing men?"
"There's young Glenn Buckley,

know. He's just a smart college kid

shire'—he's the settee to anything
they arrange, makes it snappy. In my
humble opinion, though, he's nothing
more nor less than another cabaret
product."
"I know him what I call a 'ditto.
boy,' plunges in with a big splash
and swims the tide."
"Oh, why can't • Ruth accept Dick
Defoe" implored Nita.
Richard Defoe was a friend of. Gar-
rick, grdauate of a great engineering
school, son of a fani. us engineer and
alrady an inventor of no mean fame.
Of late he had turned all his attention
to a radio invention in which he seem-
s] to have a strange aptitude. Hie
work on wireless photo transmission,
his perfection of a wireless dictagraph
and wireless teloutogrr.ph had won
him wide recognition. Just now he
was at work on a radio boat, a radio
automobile anda radio airplane.
The mere mention of Dick consti-
tuted an added; reason why Garrick
felt impelled to come to the assistance
of Nita in distress.

"Whewl Rave any of the others

hoax?"
"No!" Nita sank back in a wicker
chair, her splendid shoulders convuls-
ed as she sank her head into a little
filmy lace handkerchief and sobbed.
"I am frantic about Ruth's 'silence—
Is silence confession?—Better to lose
the jewels a hundred' tunes—than to

Re said something soothing, reassur-
ing.
"I didn't think Ruth was much
more than a child," wailed Nita,
straightening and dabbing at her eyes
with the handkerchief, "but she has
been going to all sorts of dances."
"What sort of dances?"
"The cabarets in the city—and road-
houses out here on the Island.
Garrick involuntarily elevated, his
ayebrows.
"Oh, it'O 25at a question of morals
—alone," she hastened. "After all,
sometimes common sense and foolish-
ness are fair equivalents for right
and wrong."
Guy looked up quickly, genuinely
surprised at this bit of worldly wis-
dom.
"When girls do stupid, dangerous
things, trouble follows," she persist_
ad, if not at once, a bit later. I'm
afraid this is a ease of it, Besides—

nicknamed her, ever since she went
into that amateur motion nature the
girls made at the school of the Misses
Place. She thinks she is a new Tad
madge or Pickford-really—wants to
be the 'society girl' with a career on
the screen.'
"Then there's that Rae Larue, who
has been the guest of one or another
of the girPs all summer. Just between
you and me and the listening post,
I think she's an adventuress. I've
heard it whispered that she used to be
ei cabaret singer or a dancer or some-
thing. With ambitions. Anyway,
she's been taken up by the girls of
the youngr set and it's not for the
likes of us, Guy, to tell the young
idea how it shall shoot away its time
any 'more."
"These dance palaces and cabarets,"
pondered Garick, considering, "have
given a new twist to crime!"
"And the pace! How do they de it
—on their allowances? Cut them off
to next to nothing. They seem to go
right on. There's something mighty
queer about it all. You will—look
into it for me?"
"Indeed I will, Nita. Glad of the
opportunity. I'm rather fed up on
country life just now, anyhow. Be-
sides, I'd like nothing better than to
set some of the youngsters right."
Nita Walden glowed her thanks and
was whisked away.
Garrick took a turn or two across
the deserted end of the verandah.
A couple of years before the war,
Garrick, just out of college, of fine
family and some fortune, had decided
to dilettante his way into detective
life. ,
"There must be something new in
order to catch criminals nowadays,"
he told a friend. "The old methods
are all right—as fax as they go. But
riminals are keeping up with science."
"But what a hobby!" his friend had
returned. "Never knew anyone in
Our set to 'Sake up that!"
"Xt's just 0iir set that needs it most,
We're always shaken down, black -
"mailed, victimized, imposed on—until
we, the wise ones, are the easiest
marks of all!"
So, in his casual way, Garrick had
traveled to London, Paris, Berlin,
Vienna, whe.e he had studied the
!amazing growth abroad of the new
criminal science. It was not merely
desultory. With his careless urea,

Miracles of Healing
But the work of the surgeon does
not stop there. In many cases he
has succeeded in saving a man's life
after he had received an injury of a
kind supposed' to be fatal,' There is
ono Taondrn solicitor With a good
practice whose interest in the laW'
courts would have stopped suddenly
a good.many years ago had it not
been for the amazing resources the
modern healer commands:
He was shot in cue of the vital
spots of the brain, Not so very
long; ago there was no hope in cases
of this sort -now there is at least a' '
chance of recovery.
Another injury wbich is usually
written dawn as necessarily fatal
is a broken back. But this is no
longer" the 'case. One man who Was.
severely wounded " during the War
later began to walk in Ills sleep.
Once, doing this, he fell from his•
bed -room window and broke his
back,
It took two years' treatment to
secure his complete recovery, but re-
cover he did, .and was able to return
to his. former work. Another man
lilted. for fifty years after his back
had been broken.
An amazing case in which a man's
indomitable will`, aided by the deo-
tors' care and. cleverness, reflect death
for many years, was that of a well-
known journalist, formerly the edi-
tor of a great British newspaper, who.
died in Australia the other day. He
was wounded so severely during the.
War—over twenty bullets had enter-
ed his body—that he was never ex-
pected' to survive. But he pulled
through, in spite of the fact that, .
while his gles were 50111 in splints, he
spent eight :horn's in the sea, follow-
ing the sinking of his ship by a sub-
marine.

Great Need Now for Research
Work, Says Lord
Moyntham
London—Lord Moyniham, presi-
dent
resident of the Royal College of Sur,
geons, in opening the radium clinic
at ,Victoria Hospital, declared that
surgery's attack on •cancer had reach-
ed its limit and it,was almost impos-
sible to imagine more extensive. op-
erations, or operations with .a great-
er measure of technical success, than
that which atended their efforts to-
day.
It was necessary to have regard to
the fact that one person in seven
over 30 years of age died of cancer
and that something more must be
done. In the last 30 years the gen-
eral mortality had decreased by 22
per cent, 'but the cancer death rate
had increased by 20 per cent. A
great deal remained' to be done in
educating the people to, understand
the problems and how they could
help by fighting alongside the sur-
geons.'
The great need was for research
work into the origins of . cancer
growth and methods of cure. The
public ought to realize that cancer
insofar as it was a lc,cal disease and
insofar as the surgeon could get it.
was always curable. In many cases
cancer of the various organs ouch as
the tongue, mouth and breast were
being treated with radium with a
success that in some cases far sur•
