WHAT HAS HAPPENED DIANA BROOKS, beautiful daughter of Roger Brooks, owner and publisher of the Catawba City Times and a chain of nine other newspapers, had been kidnaped and then released. Her father is engaged in a persistent fight against the corrupt administration of Catawba City and through the medium of the Times redoubles his scathing attacks on politicians of the Ring and defies the underworld. Later. Brooks himself, disappears and In an attempt to locate him, Donald Keene, literary editor, and Teddy Farrel, Don's ward and Sob-Sister on the Times, meet with disaster. Teddy saves Don s life. Out of gratitude he asks her to marry him. Although she is deeply in love with him, Teddy refuses. Don believes himself in love with Lola Mantel!, Diana’s cousin. •. ~ . . . Brooks reappears and finds that his newspaper stock is being manipulated. He suspects John W. Walden, member of a prominent law firm, of being involved in the plot to wreck the Brooks organization. Don secures for Brooks one million dollars necessary to maintain control of the publisher's interest. Teddy suggests that a dictaphone be installed in Walden's office in the hope of getting evidence against them for the grand NOW GO ON CHAPTER XXIV “It's an idea, anyhow,” opined Pop, who was always open to suggestions. “We ought to fix up something some way, to stop their clocks.” “I’ll see if I can’t dope out a way,” offered Don. He shot a quick glance at Teddy. “You an’ I, Ted—we’ll put our heads together on this proposition. You’re a pretty good plotter.” “ Pretty good’ is right enough,” agreed Dinny Morrison at this juncture. He didn’t just favor the idea of Teddy and Don ‘getting their heads together’ and still. He wasn’t really jealous of Don, although he had thought on various occasions that Teddy liked her guardian better than any guardian had a right to be liked by a pretty young girl There had been moments, in fact, when Dinny had felt taking a wallop at the popular literary editor. And a wallop from Dinny, be it here remarked, might have meant something, for while he was only a lightweight, he toted a stiff punch and was accounted an uncommonly clever amateur boxer. He looked across at the girl and man and arrived at a sudden decision. “I guess I’ll have to be going,” he remarked, casually, and rose. “You going home pretty soon, Teddy?” he asked. "If you are you can ride with me in th’ flivver.” “She’s going home with me, Dinny, for dinner,” Don informed him with a friendly smile. Dinny’s jaws came together like the jaws of a trap. This bird Keene, was getting too previous. Teddy going home with him for dinner! How th’ ’ell’d he know she was? He turned an inquiring eye on the girl. A flush had crept into her cheeks. She in turn looked inquiringly at Don. He hastened to explain. >‘l should have spoken to you about it before, of course,” he said, hurriedly. “But there was no chance with these men here. But th fact is mother told me this morning to bring you home to dinner t night if I could, as she wanted particularly to see you. Can you come?” She hesitated, glanced swiftly at Dinny’s set mouth and then back at Don. Her answer, obviously, was hanging in the balance. Pop, sensing the tense nature of the situation watched its working out with a curiously intrigued interest. Dinny himself decided the issue by his own hot-headedness. “Damn funny, your mother telling YOU to bring her home?” he said, his voice trembling. The girl flashed him a quick surprised look. Her lip curled slightly. Then she turned to Don. “I’ll go. with you,” she said simply. Dinny wheeled at the words and almost ran from the room.

Lake Catawba had often been called the most beautiful lake in the middle western states and the wealthiest in its field of white fish, bass and trout. Particularly was it noted for its numerous small Islands. These dotted its length and breadth at intervals of a few miles. “Let’s not go out very far, Don!” Diana Brooks’ voice sounded clear

Health Ruined By Constipation Tells How He Got Quick Relief, No Sign of Trouble Now. Every sufferer from stomach and liver trouble will welcome the good news in a letter written by Paul D. Bragdon, 1523 Cedar St., Anderson, Ind. He tells how he regained his health, appetite and weight, as follows: “For five years I suffereed with liver trouble and constipation. My bowels were so sluggish they would hardly act more than once a week. My complexion was yellow and I was all run down. My appetite was poor and I had a disgust for food most of the time. I went down to 136 pounds, and my vitality was so low I just had no pep at all. I felt lazy and wanted to sleep all the time. I tried different medicines and nothing did me any good. Then a relative recommended Viuna. Before I had taken half a bottle I felt better, and by the time I had taken the second bottle I had gained 4 pounds and could eat anything, had a good, heaithy appetite and was feeling fine. All that drowsiness was gone and I would get up in the morning full of pep. It has been three months since I bought my first bottle of Viuna, and I believe I can truthfully say that I am entirely well. I have gained 20 pounds,

and never felt better in my life.” Viuna acta promptly on sluggish bowels, lazy liver and weak kidneys. It purifies the blood, clears the skin, restores appetite and digestion, and brings new strength and energy to the whole body. Take a bottle on trial. Then if you re not glad you tried Viuna, your money will be refunded. $1 at druggists, or mailed postpaid by Iceland Medicine Cos., Indianapolis, Ind. •„

above the noisy put-put of the motor boat. Don and she on a sudden impulse had decided for a lake ride. Don was laughing, arrogant, a play-boy for the moment. He grinned broadly and the launch “Diana” a gift from Roger Brooks to his daughter, shot forward at a speed that was breath-taking. “What—ho!” he cried gaily to the girl, “this Is th’ life, ‘life on th’ bounding wave!’ What’s that about ‘three men sitting on a dead man’s chest—three cheers an’ a bottle o’ rum?’ ” “Please, Don! Please don’t—not so fast!” she pleaded, her gray eyes shining with excitement. The spray was whipping against their faces. In a spirit of fun Don steered in small circles, making the boat careen dangerously. “You can’t swim you know, you big monkey!” the girl reminded him and started to add something about “fools who rock boats,” but changed her remark to one less appropriate. “Well, you can. But don’t worry. Th’ lake’s smooth,” retorted Don with the brave assurance of a smallboy on a raft as he began slowing down the craft’s speed. “I was just a-teasing you, m’ dear,” and he patted her clenched hands with the same comradiness he bestowed on Teddy Farrell. Diana didn’t know why it was, but the action irritated her in a small way.

“It’s more fun with less speed,” she answered and added quickly: “Th’ afternoon is young yet and th’ lake is so beautiful. Sec over there —” pointing toward the east—"you can’t tell where th- water ends and th’ sky begins.” “As for that a briny sailor-boy would call it a bad omen!” retorted Don oracularly. “In other words, it’s for no good!” “Those clouds do look formidable,” agreed Diana, scanning a black tuft riding leisurely across the sultry northwestern sky. “Shall we go ashore for a few minutes?” asked Don, as they skirted one of teh tiny islands. “You’re sure there isn't going to be a storm?” questioned, the girl anxiously. “Oh, I don’t think so; that could’ll pass over, no doubt,” opined the optimistic Don with easy complacency. "AH right then, let’s—only we’re pretty far out, you know and I don't want dad to worry. Judge Wharton and his wife are coming for dinner tonight and I must be home by six in time to change my dress.” “Oh, seven o’clock will be time enough,” said Don airily. ‘You don’t have to change anyhow. That rag you got on is a knockout.” “Why Donald Keene,” demurred the girl, her pretty lips taking on just the hint of a pout, “this dress

is a mess already. You’re certainly a real bachelor,” she added, appraising him with a judicial eye. “You don’t even pay attention to what is proper for a special occasion.” “Oh, I don’t know about that—” He was scratching his ear, eyeing with boyish curiosity, his companion’s garb. It was tan in color —he knew that. But he couldn’t have classified the material for any reward, i “Anyhow, it looks like class to me,” he declared, assuming the air of a connoisseur. “Well, let’s tie up and snoop around a bit,” proposed the girl with sudden decision. “Maybe we can find some pop. I’m kinda thirsty, aren’t you?” “Uh huh,” grunted Don with blissful agreeableness and gallantly assisted her from the launch. Their “snooping around a bit,” revealed the fact that the island save for themselves, was uninhabited that afternoon at least. There was one small building, a shack-like structure, but it was tightly locked. On the sand close by were several fishermen’s nets spread out to dry. The person, or persons who, seemingly, belonged on the island were quite distinctly absent that June afternoon. "Well, we don’t get any pop. that’s plain,” announced Don when he had tried the door and two windows to the shack and failed to effect an entrance. They sat for a while on the small pier that projected itself into the water some thirty feet. The sun was becoming obliterated now with ever increasing frequency behind the dark cloud that had spread to much greater proportions. “That sounds like thunder,” said Diana, cocking her ear. But the distant rumbling died away and Don was sure she had imagined she heard storm warnings. “We'd better start back, however,” he suggested. “Be on th’ safe side, anyhow.” Even as he started the engine white caps were appearing far out in the lake. The air which had been sticky hot had grown noticeably cooler. A loud boom sounded over their heads. This time there was no mistaking it for anything but thunder. “By Jove—cert’nly looks ominous!” commented Don nervously, as they felt the “Diana” thrust savagely aside by a huge wave. “Be careful, Don! rt The girl’s cry was drowned in the reverberations of a tremendous crash. A blinding flame of lightning flashed in their eyes. (TO BE CONTINUED) Disaster threatens Don and Diana. The next chapter tells you whether they escape it.
