CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT HUNT BRIN was sprawled on an oversized couch against the tar wall of the inner room. He was a onght oi u e dressing * gown, a yellow ascot type scarf knotted at ms open neck. He didn’t bother to get up as Liddell walked in- " , “Well, so we meet agqJn, Liddell, “ the tazy smile was pasted back on ms face, i ' > "Monotonous, isn’t it?” Liddell agreed. Bnn shrugged ’TUs your choice, —'—you knowi.” He waved negligently a chair- "Make yourself comIfortable." The cold blue chips of his eyes followed Liddell, across the I ’ room to a barrel chair. “1 take it I thia is a social call?” « The guard snorted, held up the .45. “Here’s tus calling card." He * tossed it down on the couch next to the plond man. “The house dick 'tippea me oft “ ' “Very efficient system we have tn this notel. eb Liadell ?" Bnn smiled.

"Only when thev re in somebody elses hands Now what was it you wanted to talk about. Lid dell ?" “Lunfar."
A look of annoyance clouded Brin's eyes, passed quickly. “We discussed this fnend of yours last night, Liddell, and— “ “Lunfar’s dead. Brin," Liddell told nun. There was no mistaking the shocked 'surprise on the blond man's face. He made a creditable effort at recovery, dropped nt s eyes, made a production of selecting a cigaret and lighting It. He couldn’t control the shake of pis hand. ' “Then you did find him last night?" His eyes rolled up, pasted « themselves on Liddell. •q found him all right So did a killer whq was afraid he might talk too much." Brtn took a tong drag, New a * stream of blue white smoke ceilingward and asked, “T a1 k i n g ? About what?" * Liddell shrugged. “Lots of things. Ben Ceria, you. Goldy from Chinatown —" The cigaret stopped halfway to Brin’s mouth. "Who?" "Goldy. The old fortune teller from Chinatown you were using as a hostess at your party last-night.” Brin’s laugh sounded forced. "You must be delirious.” “I suppose you know she pulled

I o o- ■ Breaking with tradition and using the power of advertising have done much to stimulate and create sales for products, a well knowp marketing agency emphasizes in a pamphlet recently published. The brochure states that a month market has been developed! for turkeys, formerly sold oplj? during the Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons. More ice cream is now sold in than formerly went into cones and sodas in summer. Furs are marketed in August and cold drinks are a year-arquhd commodity. With advertising, manufacturers and retail outlets have' been able to create new and increase sales, Prosperity and employment depend On sales. rO o Men And Business:— In an article ip the Atlantic Monthly entitled “Free Enterprise Is Not A Hunting License," Clarence B. Randall, president of Inland Steel Company, wonders whether many businessmen have not defaulted the positions of respect and leadership they once held in their communities Randall’s article is searching and astute. He faces the fact squarely that many who decry dishonesty are willing to-'i tolerate it in their own business and associations. He points out • / ■ ■ 1 : •' 4 1,4 n : 1 In!

the chair with the snout or the 45. “Now. while we re waiting for Tim to rejoin us. suppose vou tell me what you're really after." “Goldy.” : Hunt Brin sighed. “Last night it was Lunfar. Today he’s dead Now it’s this Goldy. What’s it all about, i Liddell?" 1 H ; i[. “Murder." “Whose?" i Liddell disregarded the gun. walked over to a glass-topped |coffee table, helped himself to a cigaI ret. “A client of mine. A| little Chink named Hong." 111 k i Bnn watched Liddell light the ; cigaret, Sip the spent match at an ashtray. “What’s this Goldy got to l do with that?" "That’s what I want to ask her. ’ She lived downstairs from the old guy." : Brin, nodded. “I see. Why was i he killed?” "Who knows? My guess is that > he was trying to muscle into Gee Faw." He regarded the glowing • end of the cigaret, flicked an in- > visible film of ash from its end. ’ "Maybe some of the boysrunmng . the game wouldn’t like that." | “Like Ben Ceria, for instance?" 1 Brin asked softly. •! * T I ' ' ' Fl m
that too few businessmen take the time to learn of the work of sfchools or city government He recommends that business take on the obligation of helping the privately endowed colleges which provide many future leaders of industry.
Articles of this sort are valuable. Private enterprise is the'] best method men have yet found to build civilization and progress. But it does have room for improvement and that improvement depends on recognition of that tact by the individuals who make it up. Business has done a remarkable job of raising production so far it can support all of the people in this country at an extremely high standard of living. But Randall believes that a constant effort to preserve civic and spiritual values, as well as materialistic values, is the duty of I the men of business. 1 t) 1, Modern Etiquette BY ROBERTA LEE .<. | L . e Q.

That it?” 1 Liddell nodded ”1 heard you were tied up with Ceria tn other gambling rackets. It did occur to me you might be in Gee Faw with him." ; "So what you’re really here for is because you think I might have had something to do with this little Chink’s murder.” [PJ’Did you?” > The lazy smile was back on the blond man’s face.

An Infection That Is Found I■" L *L. \, { * * • I I |i More Often In Women Than Men
Ey HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. BOTH men and women can be infected by Trichomonas, a parasite that breedk in the urethra and prostate gland. It was once thought that Trichomonas infected only women, but wel have learned that it may be a Source of discomfort and chronic disease in men also. A person with this infection may find it necessary to urinate often, and to rise at night for this purpose. Urination is painful, with severe itching around the urinary opening. There may also be deep pain in the lower part of the abdomen. Noticed in Morning A greenish-yellow discharge may come fram the urethra, which is the tube leading from the bladder iri both men and women, ’this discharge can be no-, ticed especially on arising in the morning. Usually, many bacteria and much pus are also presient in ' the urine. ■ I ; One hospital tested over 2300 specimens of urine from both men and women for evidence of iTrichomonas infection. The test found the infection in both sexes, though the infection was about three times as frequent in the women as in the men. A group of these patients was studied further to discover the part of the urinary tract in which the parasites settled. It was found that the kidneys and bladder were clear, but the urethra and

prostate gland were the breeding ground for these organisms. - , Encouraging Result* Many methods were tried In the treatment of this infection in men. Potassium iodide gave,the, most encouraging results. in many cases, this infection may scar the urethra and partially. close it. [ . | I i (’ If the urethra is closed by scar tissue, It may have to be opened with a metal sound, which is an instrument used to stretch the tissues, . ; \ ■ lodine preparations and douches of various types have all < proved helpful in rapidly eliminating this condition in women. If this inf ection develops, treat- ' ment should be prompt and thorough to make sure that permanent damage to the tissues does not occur. ; ; j QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS V. V.: What causes an excessive ' amount of saliva? Answer: The normal amount of saliva varies ih different indl- j viduals, A great increase occurs occasionally in nervous diseases, allergies, acute infections, in- ■ lections of i the mouth, and es- > pecially from the use of certain .■ > drugs, as mercury and lodln com- > pounds, and tobacco. Some believe that constant > swallowing of saliva may become ) a habit in nervous people. It may v i also be due to conditions affectl ing the salivary glands directly, r such as, possibily, a stone in the i salivary gland. 1
