"THE IRON

Read this ctory in the Palladium and sec it at the Palace. On that narrow ledge of sheet-metal, wedged In bet-ween the window sash and the escape railing, a terrific combat was already taking place. Before Legar could get the window open the Laughing Mask, by an adroit Jiu-jitsu movement of the body, succeeded In pinning the winded Red Egan down on the fire-escape platform. But already a second sentry of Legar's was swarmIng up the narrow metal stairway, and all the attention of the man in the mask had to be directed towards his new adversary. It was while countering the onslaught of this second enemy that the Laughing Mask became conscious of still another point of attack. For as he fought there, on his knees, astride the panting form of Red Egan, an iron claw reached viciously out over the window sill behind him, and fixed itself In his shoulder. The next moment he was being hauled bodily in through the open window. Ready hands were there to take possession of that battered and breathless captive. "Put him in that chair!" exultantly commanded Legar. "Now whafll we do with him?" demanded the panting Red Egan. "Leave him to me," announced Legar, studying his captive out of narrowed and sinister eyes. Then the man with the iron claw stepped slowly and studiously closely to the chair in which the helpless Laughing Mask sat, for the light in the room was none ' too clear. j "So you're the man of mystery, are I VOtl! Ynn'rfl thr fcfrrv whn Ironno fi dead wall between him end tho world. ! . .. .. ... I en: vvcu, my vaiiauc nero. we a soon put your visor up!" Williamsburg Sadie, with her mouth slightly agape, Etood halfway between the chair and the wall, watching the man with the iron claw as he exulted over bis enemy. She watched Legar's hand as it reached out to the mask of yellow cloth and tore it viciously from the face which it had concealed. Then a scream, short but high pitched, burst from her startled lips. For what she stared at seemed more like a charnel-house cadaver than a human face. And Legar drew back at the sight of those loathsome features. He backed slowly away, staring at that face, until he came to the electric button set in the wall. He reached out w iwiico on ue wecxrouer, xor me riruggie on we nro-escapa landing naa ; left a curtain hanging half over the window, and this made the light unrrtlm But n. mi .Lflg&r lifted his TO END CATARRHAL DEAFNESS AND HEAD NOISES Persons suffering from catarrhal deafness and head noises will be glad to know that this distressing affile tlon can be successfully treated at .home by an internal remedy that in many instances nas errectea a com plete cure after all else has failed aunerers wno couia scarcely hear a watch tick have had their hearing restored to such an extent that the tick of a watch was plainly audible seven or eight inches away from either car. i nererore, ir you Know someone who is troubled with head noises or catarrh, or catarrhal deafness, cut out this formula and hand to them, and you will have been the means of sav

ing some poor sufferer perhaps from total deafness. The prescription can be prepared at home, and is made as follows: Secure from your druggist 1 oz. Parmint (Double Strength), about 75c . worth. Take this home and add to it pint of hot water and 4 oz. of granulated sugar: stir until dissolved. Tako one tablespoonful four times a day. The first dose should begin to relieve the distressing head noises, headache, dullness, cloudy thinking, etc., while the hearing rapidly returns as the system is invigorated by the tonic action of the treatment. Loss of smell and mucus dropping in the back of the throat, are other symptoms that show the presence of catarrhal poison, and which are often entirely overcome by this effacious treatment. Nearly ninety per cent, of all ear troubles are 6aid to be directly caused by catarrh, therefore, there must be many people whose hearing can be restored by this simple home

treatment. Every person who is troubled with head noises, catarrhal deafness or ca.itarrh in any form, should give this prescription a trial. Adv.

finger to the switch a sudden knock sounded on the door of the room. Both Red Egan and the woman turned mutely to Legar. And as they looked, the knock was repeated, louder than before. "Lock him in that closet," was the Iron Claw's whispered command. "And throttle him at the first sound!" Legar, who had already crossed to the door that opened into the hall, waited there until the closet door had been locked and shut. He found a chambermaid standing there. "Is there anything the matter, sir?" she asked in genuine alarm. "The matter? What should be the matter?" Inquired the sleepy-eyed occupant of the room. "I thought I heard a scream, sir," explained the chambermaid, already relieved. "Not in this room, my dear," calmly announced Legar. "I'm sorry if I was mistaken," explained the maid. It was Red Egan who stepped to Legar's side as the key was once more silently turned in the lock. "Here's a signet ring I took off your man in there. Would that give you any tip as to who he Is " Legar stood studying the ring, turning it over and over in his hand. , "No," he finally announced. "But It'll let me send a tip to our old friend Golden. I'll send him that ring to show him we've got the Laughir.3 Mask here. With it will go a note giving him his last chance to hand over that chart!" "And who'll carry that note?"a3kcd "niiarasb:: !lf 5r!T!Th( urg 3a ie, out of the silence which fell over the vi anprcnension little group. "You will," calmly announced Legar. "Not on your life!" was the girl's quavering reply. "I'm through with those people!" "But you're not through with me yet, my girl. You're going to take thi3 note to Enoch Golden, and you're going to do it without any risk. I'll call up Golden myself and tell him he'll get it back, ten to one, if he makes a single move against you. And besides that, we've got him so beaten at thi3 game that he's going to cry quits the minute he sees we've roped in the last of his rang, the minute I tell him 111 leave the country on condition he coughs up the paper!" And sposln' he does weaken and han(j OVOT tnat paper? Where do I off?" " You come back here with It as fast as wheels can carry you. And if you more as quick as I want you to move, you'll just about get back in time to see the finish of your friend in the yellow mask!" But Betsy LeMarsh's friend In the yellow mask, for all his captivity, was apparently preparing for that finish in a more active manner than was imag ined by his captors. For, the moment he was locked in the narrow closet, he had undertaken a systematic search of its gloomy corners. That search, however, was rewarded only by the discovery of a group of insulated wires running along its outer wall. Yet these wires he examined with not a little care. And the examination led him to conclude, both from the nature of the wires and the heaviness of the Insulation about them, that they were an integral portion of the lighting system of the hotel. That they were not "dead" he promptly discovered by scraping away the insulation tissue and bringing two of the bared wires in contact. This resulted In an immediate hiss and spark of light. And that gave the prisoner an idea. By "breaking" the current, he knew, he could send a message needling through all the nervous system of the house. And at some one point, he felt sure, that methodic play of dot and dash in the light bulb would arouse suspicion and cause a search to be Instigated. It was, in fact, in the office of the hotel Itself, where High-Collar Davis, the house detective, leisurely perused an evening paper for certain racing returns close beside a rotund and robinlike room clerk in a red vest that an electric bulb Just above the register began to conduct Itself in a manner that was first mysterious and then challenging. fUgh-Collar Davis, looking languidly up from his racing charts, watched this light for several momenta of silence. "Well, I'll be blowed!" he finally ejacuiat-'.

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM,

BY ARTHUR STRINGER "What's wrotig?" asked the room clerk. Instead of replying, the hpuse detective took out paper and pencil, and, carefully watching the winking and blinking bulb, wrote a number of letters down on his slip of paper. "That's the first time," he solemnly announced, "I ever saw an electric bulb talk Morse!" "Talk Morse?" echoed the other. "Yes, talk Morse, or I never pounded the brass for two years. And here's what it has said, twice over. Help room three o seven help help!" The house detective suddenly stood upright. "Say, who is in 307 in this house, anyway?" "That Virginian with his arm in a sling!" "Then it's up to us to find out what's going on in that room!" Tho Laughing Mask, in the meantime, was no longer giving hi3 attention to the wires along the closet wall. But with his pocket knife he had already removed the set screw from the door knob of the closet door. Then, swinging lightly up to the shelf that stood somo five feet from tho floor, ho seated himself, there opposite the door. J By grasping the tv;o heavy clothes hooks screwed into thin doer, and by nlantinir his feet firmlv against tho rash on either sido of it, he felt that Iia irfla not nTvnfrntliM tit iha mprfv nf hi3 cu.eir.ics. Even as he sat there he could hear the key turned in tho lock and then tho sound of Legar's quick oath of exasperation 33 the door knob fell loose to the floor, in response to hi3 tug at it. At the samo time hope rose in the captive's heart, for ho could hear tho muffled sound of a knock on the outer door. And still again the prisoner in tho closet could hear Legar's oath of exasperation. This was followed by the sudden Impact of the heavy wing chair against the panels of the closet door. That blow, repeated again and yet again, was heavy enough to break through the wood. But that dignitary known as High-Collar Davis, being a gentleman not given to inactivity in moments or emergency, ana oemg sur- j ncientiy persuaaea or uniowara proceedings behind the door which refused to open to his knock, promptly seized a fire ax from Its vermilionpainted rack in the hall, and sent it crashing through the panels of the door which .bore .the numerals 307. To Be Continued. Frightened by a mouse, a woman guest of the Waldorf-Astoria hotel, New York, shrieked so loudly while taking a bath that hotel detectives almost broke Into the bathroom. "ONLY 'GETS-IT' FOR ME AFTER THIS!" it "Gets" Every Corn Every Time. Painless. Nothing More Simple. "I'll tell you what, I've quit using toe-eating salves for corns, I've quit making a package out of my toes with bandages and contraptions quit digging with knives and scissors. Give me 'GETS-IT' every time!" When Yon See These Pretty G:r1 In You Drugsut' Window It' Good Tim To End Your Corn. That's what they all say the very first time they use "GETS-IT." It's because "GETS-IT" is so simple and easy to use put it on in a few seconds because there is no work or corn-fooling to do, no pain that shoots up to your heart. It gets your corns off your mind. All the time it's workingand then, that little old corn peels right off, leaves the clean, cornfree skin underneath and your corn is gone! No wonder millions prefer "GETS-IT." Try it tonight. "GETS-IT" is sold and recommended by druggists everywhere, 25c a bottle, or sent on receipt of price by E. Lawrence & Co., Chicago, 111. -. Sold in Richmond and recommended as the world's best corn remedy by A. G. Luken, Clem Thistlethwaite, The Conkey Drug Co., and Quigley's drug stores. Adv. .
