It was late in the evening and Claus staggered home under a big bundle of fagots. He had been all day gatherIns wood, and now that it was commencing to snow, he found that he had a long way yet to go before night. Claus was a boy who had been stolen when a baby by a wingle, which Is a female kind of wizard, and hardly remembered his mother's home. On this particular day the Wingle was very pleasant to Claus when he returned. "Claus," she said,, "I have been successful at last. After searching for five years for the magic manuscript, I have- found it. Tonight I will consult it to find my fortune. Hurry about supper, boy." Claus hurried, you may be sure, else he would have had a whip about his shoulders. After the dishes were cleared away, the Wingle drew up her chair to the table and told Claus to go to sleep in his corner. The boy lay down on the straw pallet, but he was too much interested in what the Wingle was doing to sleep. So he remained quiet, watching what was going on at the table. From a pine knot came a smoky light. This hung over the Wingle's head and cast its reflection .on the paper, the cat mewing about the floor and the owl perched on the back of the chair. The Wingle began to read the paper n loud. It ran thiio: Henus, genus, hokypo, Rlngdum riddle and kinkimro, Swing the black by the tail. Hang her on the rusty nail, Then you'll have your wishes three, No matter what on earth they be. "Hooray!" shouted the Wingle. "How lucky I am! I can wish for that bag of diamonds 1 know is at the bottom of tho Mack Tool, and I will be lich for life." Thru she bald the words and Kwima the black cat by its tail and hung it on the rusty nail by the door. 'Now all ia ready for th great ift," Bald the Wingle gleefully as she at rubbing her hands. "But I must go slowly how lucky there is no one AN EASY WAY TO GET FAT AND BE STRONG The trouble with most thin folks who wish to gain weight is that they insist on drugging their stomach or stuffing it with greasy foods; rubbing on useless ' flesh creams," or following some foolish physical culture stunt, while the real cause of thinness goes untouched. You cannot get fat until your digestive tract assimilates the food you eat. There is a preparation known to re- ', liable druggists almost everywhere i which seemingly embodies th missing I elements needed by the dig-stive or1 gans to help them convert food into ' rich, fat-laden blood. This modern treatment is called Sargol and has j been termed the greatest of fleshbuilders. Sargol aims through regenerative, re-tonstructive powers to coax (ho stomach and intestines to literally poak up the fattening elements of your food and pass them into the blood, where ' ey arc carried to the starved, broken-down cells and tissues f your body. You can readily picture wh.it result this amazing transformation should produce as with increased weight the cheeks fill out, hollows about neck, shoulders and bust disappear and from 10 to 20 pounds of solid, healthy flesh is added to the body. Sargol is absolutely harmless, inexpensive, efficient. Clem Thlstlethwaite's five stores and other leading druggists of this vicinity have It and will refund your nmney if you are not satisfied, as per the guarantee found i.. every packare. .VOTE Sargol Is recommended only as a flesh builder and while excellent results in eases of nervous indigestion, etc.. have been reported care should be taken about using it unless a gain of weight Is desired.

Newspaper Syndicate. New York, here but me to wish. I might lose what I have In hand if anyone knew what I was about." Now Claua had heard every word and seen everything that went on, though he pretended to be asleep. Suddenly it dawned upon him that he could take a part In this as well as the Wingle that any wish he made would be carried out as soon as hers. "I wish I had the bag of diamonds that la in the bottom of the Black Pool right here on. my. back." shouted Claus, jumping to his feet so quickly that the Wingle almost fell out of her chair. "And I wish I might find myself back home with my mother before this hour ends." In a second the bag of diamonds was hanging on Claus' back. "You little wretch!" screamed the Wingle, springing to her feet wildly in terrible anger and trying to hit Claus with her chair. "You little imp I will teach you a lesson. You have used up two of my wishes. Goodness, if I catch you I will beat you to bits I wish I were a thousand miles away from you." The Wingle had forgotten when she said the last thing that it was a wish
and would come true. In another moment she was flying out of the door to the seashore, then flapping across the waters till she at last was thrown breathless on a tiny bit of land in the very center of the Atlantic ocean. And there she dwells today, living on a lonely rock, eating raw fish and bread fruit, a thousand miles from her old home. But happy Claus did not wait long for his second wish to come true. In about half an hour he felt himself taken up gently and borne on a cloud above the trees, over rivers and lakes, across the mountains, then softly dropped in a garden by the side of a mountain path. There in the door before him was a woman whom he knew to be his long-lost mother. You may be sure that-was a happy meeting, and when the mother saw the bag of diamonds there was renewed rejoicing at the home-coming oi uU8, uu u-u nms uu uev u tomorrow's Story - "Billy Goose j ... 2. 7 ' I and tne rox. j TTTT iwo Harry Somerdyke was later than he had meant to be when he met Ben Hadley on the Coney Island boat. In deed he had promised to be at One I Hundred and Twenty-ninth street at least fifteen minutes ahead of time so that he and Ben might secure good seats. But, as has been seen, he arrived just in time to get on board before the boat left the pier. And Kelley Delaine was another person who had made him late. The author, after parting from Julia Marvin, started for his apartments, his thoughts full of the girl and what she had told him. He knew now that he loved her, and to him love meant service. What could he do to make her life bright even if he could not win her affection? There was no doubt in his mind as to what was the trouble, the distress of Julia's life. It was her uncertainty, her anxiety about Caryl. Since Caryl was in his employ, and since it was his friend who had taken her out to luncheon and on an automobile ride without her sister's j knowledge, surely It. was his Kelley j Delaine's duty to try to keep any harm from coming to the girl. It was well enough for him to tell Julia that he would try to guard her sister and to influence her to be discreet and circumspect, but it was quite another thing for him to win Caryl's confidence and to persuade her that he had only her good at heart. She was a vain little creature, so avid of admiration, so headstrong, that he felt baffled when he tried to imagine himself arguing with her. Still he had given his word and meant to do his best. But surely it would be wise for him to remove temptation from her path, if possible. On in this case temptation meant Harry Somerdyke. Harry Somerdyke, as the only son of a rich man, now dead, had done pretty much as he pleased since childhood. Delaine had known him intimately when the two were young lads together, but for the past five yars Harry had been out of the United States spending much of his time playing at engineering in Venezuela and the friends had seen little of each other.

"Who do you think Is waiting outside? The man who threatened Pennington ' La wton's life ten years ago,
the man whose name was mentioned by the unknown visitor to the library i on the night Lawton met his death: Herbert Armstrong!" "Good heavens!" Ramon exclaimed. "What brings him here now?

Now that he has come to me voluntarily, we shall discover if the voice Miss Lawton overheard in that moment when she listened on the stairs, was his or not.

He opened a lower drawer in his massive desk and, drawing from it a business-like looking revolver of large caliber, presented it to the lawyer. With a warm handclasp he dismissed him, and. going to the telephone, called up Anita Lawton's home. "I want you to attend carefully, Miss Lawton. I am speaking from my office.
