The fluid from the three pairs of glands aids in the digestion of starches and prepares the food ro that further digestion can take place, Since the process^of salivation is Effected by changes in ether of the body, the 5> causes of dry mouth are numerous. / Healthy salivary glands usually - secrete c ontinual amounts of fluid.

TO 'the w'age earner'this will be nosmall -piatter. Automobiles, gasoline, liquor and beer will be more costly because of higher federal taxes. It is unlikely that any part of the proposed tax measure will become law before September or October. The new taxes are to do a twofold job. They will heljf to pay for the cost of rearming durselves and our allies on' a pay-ns-weJgo basis. They will also take some money out of. circulation find thus, the government economjigts hope, ’ ► I'i help to prevent from be- * coming worse. No one likes to pay taxes. But defense is costly.

' y ’’ - \ SYNOPSIS 1 A cryptic letter commanding him to re- t X>rt to attorney Owen Bradley, brings . {"onto Riley, wanderer, riding into the cow J own of Avrillo, N. M. Everyone apparently had been awaiting Tonto’a arrival nchiding the beautiful hostess at the Golden Saloon who whispers to him that he’d better 1 of town. 1 CHAPTER THREE , OUTSIDE the case, Tonto halt- ( id, looking' up and down the £ flanked sidewalk. Then he saw the , jirl crossing the street and obviously heading for the Golden Sa- £ , xx>n. He took a step after her and , checked himself at the edge of the ( sidewalk. He stood watching as j the girl moved around the corner , of the Golden and disappeared into , the shadows. Tpnto turned and , slowly walked back to the hotel. He remembered Al Hibbs’ vague warning, and the room that was “safe.” The girl had also warned him but in a lighter vein, much as if she had given him an impersonal and friendly bit of advice. But she had meant it. Al Hibbs and the girl both knew Tonto, or at least knew why he had come to Avrillo. Tontd felt as though he were an ignorant pawn moyed by an invisible hand. He walked into the lobby and Al Hibbs squinted at him from behind the counter. Tonto leaned casually over the ledger and looked dbwn at his" signature. “Did someone else read this?” he ..said. \ I ■ . “Not that I know of. Why?” \ “There was a girl," Tonto answered, “who\knew my name and thought I wouldn’t like Avrillo. She was about so -tall and had black hair and green eyes. She went into the Golden.” “Oh," Hibbs grunted. “No, she ain’t read the register. That was Ruby Sevier. You’ll know her a heap better before long.” He shook his head sagely. “And it won’t do youno good, either.” The morning light confirmed the night’s impression. Avrillo was a typical cow town and nothing mode, squat dwellings, a series of rolling hills lifted up to high peaks on the far .horizon, the slopes ranging in color from the dark bluegreen of the spruce to the lighter tints of aspen and cottonwood. Tonto shaved and dressed carefully/ He went first to the livery | Stable. The bay stood contentedly n its stall. Tonto grinned, rubbed j the Animal’s muzzle and searched I far more corn.

Four cowboys sat at the i counter, ono/of them showing the ' marks of a * heavy evening. He drank coffee with long, grateful < sips, moving his head carefully as though it might easily drop off. On Tonto’S entrance, the four : men paused, looked steadily at him and then , tutned their attention again to their food. It was no more than the careful scrutiny the long firsts judgment that they would give t 6 any stranger, and Tonto was not bothered by it. One by one, the cowboys rose and left the’ case. Two or three others came Jin, each giving Tonto a brief, noncommittal nod and a long, searching look. Tonto nodded in turn. He could watch the bank building through the front window and the harrow entrance to the stairs, that led to the office above. The bank opened and Tonto finished his coffee. He saw a small man in a big frock coat\ come strolling along the walk. He turned into the stairway and disappeared. Tonto paid jtiis bill, looked up at the'windows above the bank as one of them wai raised by the same little man he had seen on the street.- !' b The stairway was steep and the short upjier halj was gloomy. Flaked gold letters /on a solid door repeated Owen Bradley’s name. Tonto drUmined his knuckles on the panel rind pushed open the The little man turned from the window. ' i “You’re Owen Bradley?” Tonto said/ : \ “That’s right.” Bradley had a shrill voice. He was less than five feet high, a paunchy little man with a round little face and sharp gray eyes, i The long dark coat hung open revealing a black dotted white vest hooped with a heavy gold chain/ He waved a pudgy harid to a s chair near a rolltop desk. “Sit down, son." His black hair was streriked with gray j and over each point-tipped ear little white tufts stood out like miniature horns. \ “You’re Tonto Riley," he said abruptly when he was seated. “You came in last night I thought you might look me up then.” 7 “It was late and it’s a long ride from Sonora.” “Sonora!’*. Bradley’s bushy black brows arched. “That’s where your letter caught L ud with, me.*’ Tonto said. He Dulled

He produced a small roll of bills, placed them ■beside the letter. “What’s this?” Bradley piped. “What’s left from the expense money you sent me. I didn’t have to spend it all.” Bradley picked up the bills, counted thein. He opened the letter and nodded, then dropped it beside the money. He was obviously pleased that Tonto had made such an accounting. / “What was your father’s full name?” he asked abruptly. “George Riley, like mine." “His full name?” Bradley insisted with a touch of impatience. “George Armbrewster." “Where was he born?” - Tonto moved irritably at the sharp prod in the man’s questions.
