CHAPTER XV Hobart's reply was a smothered cry and Miles and Scottie had only time to regain the shelter of the rear staircase when Miss Drake swept across the hall and to her own room. “So she knows, does she?" Scottie rubbed his chin. “I wish to the Lord that we did, but it’s my opinion we’ll find out nothing more this night." Scottie was right. Nothing happened until the next morning when Zorn appeared in the garden and had the older man summon Miles. “Where can we talk?" Zorn asked as Miles appeared. “Just down the road here. I understood your message Sunday evening, of course. Did you trace the —er — bill of lading?” Zorn nodded smilingly as they strode along the road toward the weather-beaten shed. “Yes. She Is at Freedale at the home of a certain estimable but somewhat peppery old farmer named Higgs.” “Eliphalet!" exclaimed Miles. "His sister Hitty has been a maid here In the household for a generation but I never thought of him: How did Miss Patricia happen to go there, and why?” “Perhaps you had better read her letter first.” Zorn glanced about the ramshackle shed and produced a small, bulging envelope. “Dear Sergeant Miles: Mr. Zorn will tell you how he found me and why I stayed away. I have ! promised I will come home this after- > noon. I had to tell you first, though.; that I have broken our agreement; I j am sending word to Mr. Kemp to j meet me and I mean to tell him as much as I can without being disloyal to my family. After all I have been j through I don't know what to think j except that we have terrible enemies who will stop at nothing and I am nearly crazy! Please guard my father and the others well and find 1 out what It is that threatens them before it is too late! Don't let them know what happened to me, I am going to tell them I left because they treated me so sternly. The paper I am sending with this will show you why I left the house without trying to see you and put It in your hands. 1 only found it a little after 10 that | night. Perhaps it will help you to % “AFTER THAT THINGS HAP PENED TOO QUICKLY FOR HER TO UTTER A CRY.” trace the dreadful woman who wrote it and the men who are in her pay, ! especially the one w ith the tatto mark on his arm. Hastily, “PATRICIA DRAKE.” “This letter doesn’t tell me much except that the young lady is on the verge of hysteria,” h commented. Miles had unfolded the second note. It was comparatively brief, and al- ] though its fine, cramped, shaken hand j was unlike any that he had studied I before during his investigation, there : was yet something vaguely famillar abont it which arrested him. “My dear child.” he read. “Great trouble has come upon your ! esteemed father and your uncles and ! compelled them to do the strange! things which have so distressed you of late. Now they are facing ruin j and disgrace through no fault of their \ own, but you. my dear, can save them. “I have known your family for many years and it is my duty to tell you the truth. I am an infirm old woman and live at some distance, but my car will be outside your gate at 11 tonight and my servants are to be trusted to bring you safely to me. I will make you comfortable for the night and you may return in the morning.
Corn—A Real American Dish Bu BERTHA E SHAPLEIUH Cooking Authority /or XEA Service and Columbia Unlveraity. Corn is an American dish which always is appreciated. The recipe in which green corn, canned corn, or corn ground into meal is used, are strictly American dishes. The United States originated the “green corn on the cob” custom. If the three husks next the cob are left on and beared at the end the corn is much sweeter and keeps both a longer time. Serve, of course, with these husks on—they are easily removed at the table. For those who do not like to eat com from the cob, the kernels may be cut from the cob and cookod with butter and just enough water to keep It from burning. Salt, pepper and sugar to taste are added. Boiled corn may be cut from the cob, when cold, and made into many delicious dishes, as fritters and pudding, or may be simply heated in milk and then seasoned to taste with butter added. A cream of com soup is one of the nicest of the cream soups, and may be made with fresh or canned com. Corn and chicken go well together, and when one has a little roasted or boiled chicken and some corn left these may be scalloped and make a very satisfying supper dish. Chop the chicken, cut the corn from the cob and place in layers in a buttered baking dish. Season well and add some gravy or milk to moisten. Cover with buttered crumbs and bake until thoroughly heated and crumbs are a nice brown. Green com cut from th? cob, lima beans, tomatoes, with chicken or beef, make a wonderful stew. Corn fritters may be served with meat, or as a dessert with brown sugar sauce or maple sirup. Many people who have ar. abundance of corn like to make a relish of it, using tomatoee and onions with it. Com is one of the difficult vegetables to can, requiring care and thorough sterilization. (The Times will print a series of delicious recipes by Miss Shapleigh.)
“Watch for the flash of light twice in the road and be prepared to come at once, telling no one, or I cannot help you. Have faith in me for my only wish is to keep you and yours from greater suffering. “A FRIEND.” "Great heavens!” exclaimed Miles. ’’Anyone but an unsophisticated child like Miss Patricia would huve seen at a glance that this was the bunk! Tell me what she told you, Zorn; what happened to her?” "She says that Saturday night she saw that note lying on the floor Just under her opened window. She never thought of doubting the good faith of the ‘infirm old woman,’ threw a few things into a bag and waited for the signal. It uamo and Miss Patricia slipped down the drive to where a limousine stood at the gate with one man behind the wheel and unother holding the door. “After that things happened too quickly for her to utter h cry. The man took her bag, clapped hit hand over her mouth and bundle 1 her in !sc. and they .vi e off. She remembers struggling, but a sweetish .smelling cloth —chloroform, probably—was placed over her face and than everything was a blunk. "When 6he came to herself there was a rush of cool air in her fact*, for the window behind the driver's seat was down and the two men were talking. "Her heavy beaded handbag was still on her arm, and. without stopping to think, she smashed the man over the face with it. toi-e open the nearest door and jumped, roiling over and over into the ditch. They cursed and halted, but another car was com : ing and that gave her an opportunity to scramble up and over a low stone ; wall into a mass of willow shoots 1 growing by a brook. ‘They gave up hunting for ner and drove off. She stumbled along in the darkness with sense enough to keep to the main road. A moving van come rumbling along and on an impulse she hailed It; she says the idea flashed across her mind that If she could find out the name of the nearest village and get word to Mr Wells' he would keep her confidence and come to take care of her, at the same time sending a warning to you. "When she asked them where they were going and they told her. 'Free-1 dale.' Miss Patricia thought at once of this Higgs and got them to give her a lift. "Whatever they thought, they let her climb in and on the way she nr ranged with one of them to take that note to Wells’ house when they got back to the city in the morning. They reached Freedale at dawn and Miss Patricia got down and went directly to the Higgs place.” "Did she recognize either of the two men who abducted her?” demanded Miles. "No. But when one of them flung her traveling case into the car she saw that his sleeves were rolled up and a device of some sort was tattooed on one arm.” "Tell me how you located Miss Pa tricia,” asked Miles. "The scrap of paper she had used for that message to Mr. Wells started me in the right direction,” Zorn replied. “I caught the first train to Brookside. It wasn't difficult to lo- ; cate anew family named 'Slocum' and learn the name of the furniture mover, j “The boss of the moving gang de scribed the house at Freedale where Ihe had left the girl. I took the early j afternoon train and located the girl ! at the Higgs place. “Did you see Wells last night at eleven?” asked Miles. “Yes. It tame near being a disastrous appointment for me!” “ 'Disastrous!' ” "When I left his house somebody tried to hold me up; hit me, with a blackjack and only the soft felt hat ! 1 was wearing saved me from being ; knocked for a goal! See?" Zorn re- | moved his cap and displayed a strip j of plaster where his smooth, blonde j hair had been clipped away. , "He j sneaked up from behind and landed !on me, but something must have | scared him for he took to his heels [ and was gone before I could recover i sufficiently to give chase. It's on me, j isn’t it?” j “It certainly is,” agreed Miles, but | there was a peculiar quality in his | tone. "Are you going back to the city now ” Zorn nodded and rose. "I wish you would deliver this letter. I daren’t trust them to the malls and time is an essential factor. It Is to Professor Nigel Lorton. at the Archaelogical Museum." It was late that afternoon before Patricia put In an appearance and there was anew. shy dignity in her

So the togatowel was invented, which may be worn as a coat to the shows you how it’s worn.

Roger had appeared at luncheon more wan and fragile than ever, but later Miles had caught a glimpse of him tottering down the drive muffled to the ears in a greatcoat in spite of the mild spring weather, and wondered what errand would have dragged him forth. The return of Patricia, however, turned his thoughts to other channels and the arrival within an hour of an unexpected caller banished all idle speculation for the time being from his mind. The caller was Miss Ora Hawks but the transformation In her appearance was remarkable If she had not quite succeeded in regaining the lost years of her youth she had made a victorious effort to mitigate the inroads of time. The butler served tea In the drawing room, but the detective knew that although Carter had been sent to summon both Hobart and Andrew only the latter appeared and that reluctantly enough. Miles loitered In the hallway below trying in vain to catch a word of the conversation between Miss Hawks and her former swain. All at once the heavy portieres parted and the visitor reappeared. It was doubtful If she was conscious of the pseudo-houseman's shadowy figure in the background as she made for 1 the front door, calling back over her shoulder with a quick, convulsive | catch of her breath. “No, don't trouble, please! I can find my way. Tell Jerusha I—l will see her soon. Good-by!” It was not the words nor the tone In which they were uttered which for a moment held the detective rooted to the spot, but the dazed look of halfincredulous wonder upon the woman's face and the glint as of dawning fear I In her eyes. Scarcely had the door closed when there was a crash In the drawing | room followed by the hiss of flame and ; a man’s bellow of profanity mingled with pain. A pungent odor of smoldering cloth assailed his nostrils stiflingly as Miles dashed the porterles aside to behold Andrew tearing off hts scorched coat from which a curl of acrid smoke arose and stamping out a tiny bluish flame that darted across the rug from beneath the overturned tea-table. " That three-legged stand!” the latter growled beneath his teeth. ! “Help me get this off. William, never I mind the rug.” (To Bo Continued)

WOMAN CAUDATE OUTLINES VIEWS Mrs. Frances C. Axtell States Platform for Senate Race. By FRANCES C. AXTELL, (Written for the United News.) BELLINGHAM, Wash., July 29. My fight against Senator Miles Poindexter, the Incumbent, for the Republican nomination for Senator ir the old contest of "Progressivism” against “reactionarism.” Senator Poindexter must explain to the voters of this State why he voted to seat Senator Newberry and why he voted for an army of 183,000 instead of 167,000 as the President desired. Five important organizations of influence have indorsed my candidacy. The State Federation of Labor, the State Grange, the Non Partisan League, an organization of soldiers interested in securing a bonus, and a combination of women’s club#. I favor a soldier’s bonus, not raised by a sales tax, but by a tax on excessive profits. Another thought I have Is that Government in the future must consider human values In legislation. Legislation passed by men may fill most requirements of our country, but too often it does not consider the humanitarian side of life, and that, I believe, is where the benefit of a woman's thought is needed. My first political office came in 1912, when 1 was elected to the State Legislature of my State, and It was my activity in the following sessions for political honesty and common sense which, I am told, was responsible for the requests that I oppose Senator Poindexter. I firmly believe women haw a great future in politics. A woman j can easily take active part In poll : tics and still watch ner household I and wifely duties. Personally, I j waited until my two daughters were well on the way to womanhood be j fore I became active. The Raggedies “Time to get up!” Mamina Bear called upstairs to Raggedy Ann, j Raggedy Andy, the Fuzzywump and the Puppydog They were all fast , asleep on the Baby Bears little bed. j "While the cream of wheat cools, j we’ll take a short walk through the ; woods!" said Mamma Bear. "Nothing 1 is better for an early morning break

And sure enough the three bears and Raggedy Andy and the Fuzzy- | wump and his Puppydog had haidlyj | got out of sight when Goldiolocka j I came across the bear's garden and | ; knocked at the door. “Come in.” said Raggedy Ann. “I’m Raggedy Ann,” said Raggedy j j Ann. “And you can talk too,” cried Gol | dielocks. “Do you belong to Baby j Bear?” Then Raggedy Ann told Uol- | dielocks all about the nice Bears. “They wore In hopes you would i come here, and that is why I have j stayed behind. To Invite you to stay | for breakfast.’ "And won’t these bears bite?” asked f Goldielocks. "Dear me. no!" Raggedy Ann re j plied, “they are Just the nicest, kind- j llest bears you ever saw." "Then I will stay.” said Goldilocks, ] “for I am very, very hungry.” The three bears were so glad when ; j they found Goldielocks would stay’ for I breakfast, and as the table was all | I ready everybody sat down and ate j their cream of wheat and milk. Then | j Mamma Bear baked lots and lots of j i light, fluffy pancakes and served them i ! with honey, or maple syrup, as each j i one preferred. "Doesn't your mamma j | bake pancakes for your breakfast?” j i Raggedy Ann asked Goldielocks, for she saw that Goldielocks had eaten nine pancakes and liked them very much. "Dear me!” Goldielocks replied. "I j haven’t any mamma; I live In an old j hollow tree and just have to eat her ! ries and nuts unless I come to the bear's house and eat things when they are not at home!” “Then," said Mamma Bear "you must come and live with us. We won’t let you live in the hollow tree j nny longer." “Indeed, we won’t.” cried Daddy Bear In his great, rough, deep, kindly voice. And as Goldilocks did not. have any trunk to move she thanked the three kind bears and said she would stay. "Now that, we are all happy because we have another in j our family, let's pack a lot of lunch | and have a picnic down by the river," I said Daddy Bear. And as this pleased j everybody, Mamma Bear soon had a great basket filled with cream puffs, lady-fingers, jelly doughnuts, cookies and ham sandwiches and with hearts beating with happiness the three bears and Goldilocks and Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy and the Fuzzywump and his Puppydog all started out ofr a day to be filled with sunshine and pleasure.

Chamber of Commerce Official Started to Work at Thirteen
By VlßfilSHk RKYER Miss Elsie Green, assistant general secretary of the Indi&napol.s Chamber I | of Commerce, is an example of the “get them young” theory. At the age \ |of 13, having completed common school she sought a Job and when \ i she told her employers her age they candidely told her to lie. so she con- ' I veniently advanced the hands of the ! clock five years. ' i She started folding circulars and worked up to assistant to the auditor. Following this career she was for several years assistant secretary of the; Antox Paint Company. The next field she entered took her to the posi- : ition of ass.stant to the State Superintendent of Public Instruction. It was from there she went to the Chamber of Commerce. "There are lots of things that make this work absorbingly interesting,” ’ said Miss Green. “All of the important activities of the city seem to center
Portly Mine Owners Pitch Pemiies in Halls of Indiana Statehouse
Whosoever believes that wealthy mine owners are not capable of entering zealously into childish sports should have been at the Statehouse during the conference held by the operators with Governor McCray. The age-old game of "crackaloo,” In which participants pitch pennies for the line, the closest throw taktng the pot, was started in the corridor and i but few minutes had elapsed when at least ten of the operators had Joined i in the sport. Martin L. Gould, president of the Indiana Operators' Association, proi cured a dime's worth of pennies and ; began shooting. Phil H. l’enna of j Terre Haute, secretary of the organl- : zatlon, negotiated a loan from some one and began practicing on the side- | line and in two or three shots had j become so proficient he stepped into the game and took two successive pots. Alfred M. Ogle, president of the National Association of Operators, found a penny that had rolled out of bounds, claimed it. and Joined In the game. A rule was established early in the game that each winner must collect his own spoils. Some of the more portly participants objected, but were overruled, and as a result one or two wero forced to go to their knees to j collect the straggling coppers.

Miss Green went on to say she gets quite a few complaints from people who want to know why certain things ; aren’t done differently. "For Instance, even If a man gets a cold potato In the dining room, and ! complains about it. it is up to me to say cold potatoes are good for one and Jolly him Into a good mood," she said, "Then too, with my meagre ; education I used to be sensitive about grammatical mistakes but I always asked people to tell me when I made errors and I learned a lot in this way. However. I consider an education essential and the two next Important qualities for a woman In business seem to me to be 'stick-to-it-iveness' and good nature." Miss Green always has lived In Indianapolis and is a member of the Altrusa Club, an honorary business and professional women’s organization.
Interest on cal! money at one stage of the game reached 100 per cent, tvro pennies for one being offered for loans. Tie* and disputed matches were a feature of the game, the operators measuring distnees from the line with matches and pencils to decide winners. Butterflies in Migration Are Million Strong By PROP. if. J. ELROD, Chair of Biology, Cnivenity of Montana. Most people are familiar with bird migration, but few are familiar with similar gregarious habits of butterflies, which, though less frequent, are fully as Interesting and quite unexplainable. During migration the air will be filled with millions of individuals of one species, all flying In the same direction. W. G. AVright describes a migration lasting eleven days, covering all Southern California, when the migration was northward over a known distance of some 1,400 miles, as far as Canada. The migration southward of the milkweed butterfly, which ranges from Patagonia to Hudson Bay, has been npted by many observers. Maurice Ricker reports them in 1905 so abundant at Burlington, lowa, that thousands were seen on one tree. They have been reported so numerous as to give color to the trees on which they rest. Dr. S. H. Scudder described a September flight in New Hampshire, when they extended in a thin stream that required hours for passing. C. L. Hopkins described a "swarming” of the California tortoise-shell on Mt. Shasta in August. 1389. They were in continuous flight for nearly five hours, between 11,000 and 12,000 feet. ~ - * Claypool Hotel Our Coffee Shop will be reopened for business Saturday morning, July 29th. L i

The text of the j resolution is: "Inasmuch as the Liter- ! ary Digest is claiming to have made a nation-wide canvass of the sent!i ment of the American people by send- ; ing ballots concerning the prohibition j law and the soldiers' bonus, and it further appears that, the ballots being secret, gave ample opportunity for | counterfeit ballots for the liquor Inj terests, and it further appears that j a complete poll of voters was not ; taken, as few women or farmers have ! received these ballots. "Now, therefore, be It resolved that j Central W. C. T. U. protests against the unfairness of such a test and denies that this is a correct index of the sentiment of the American people. "And, be it further resolved, that this union protests against raising the question of enforcing the prohibition or any other law, since all laws are ; made to be obeyed and enforced.” Ratine Ratine, dyed in futurist patterns with splashy colors, makes very at tractive beach capes and bathrobes.
