Artillerymen Wear Gas Masks

BRITISH MASKED A&SIL&ERY?

Gas masks are popular in the war zones this season. All of the more prominent infantrymen, artillerymen and aviators are wearing them but we forget, this is not a fashion note. J The use of poison gas has become so general on both sides that practically all of the troops in action anywhere near the fighting lines are equipped with helmets. This photograph shows a British gun crew prepared to face a gun attack.

THE GOLD OF THE GODS

enough to" give me the . impression that they were familiar, without enabling me to identify them. At any rate, the occurrence made me feel decidedly uncomfortable, especially after the warning letters that we had all received. I sprang to my feet and ran to the door. But it was too late. The . intruder had disappeared. Still, the more I thought about it, the more determined 1 was to try to verify a distinct suspicion, if possible. I put on my hat and walked hurriedly over to the office of the registrar. , Sure enough, I found that Alfonso de Mochc had been at the University that day, must have attended a lecture an hour or so before. Having nothing else to do, I hunted up some of his professors and tried to quiz them about him. As I expected, they told me he that he was an excellent student, though very quiet and reserved. His mind seemed to run along the line of engineering, and particularly mining. I could not help coming to the conclusion that undoubtedly he, too, was infected by the furore for treasure hunting, in spite of his Indian ancestry.

Yet there seemed to be surprisingly little known about him outside of the lecture room and laboratory. . The professors knew that he lived with his mother at a hotel downtown. He seemed to have little or nothing to do. with the other students outside of class work. Altogether he was an enigma, as far as the social life of the University went. It looked very much as though he had come, to New York quietly to prepare himself for the search for the buried treasure. Had the Gold of the Gods lured him into its net, too? y,-" v.,'--;. Reflecting on the tangle of events, the strange actidns of Lockwood and the ambitions of Whitney, I retraced my steps in the direction of the laboratory, convinced that de Moche had employed at least a part of his time lately in spying on us. Perhaps he had seen Inez going in . and out. Suddenly it flashed over me that the interchange of glances between de Moche and Lockwood indicated that she was more to him than a mere acquaintance. Perhaps it had been jealousy as well as treasure hunting that had prompted his eavesdropping. Still reflecting, I decided to turn in

Says Simple Remedy Prolonged His Life

Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin Effective as a Remedy for Constipation. Among older people the various organs of the bcdy have a tendency to slow up and weaken, and this is usally first manifest in a pronounced inactivity of the bowels. Good health is dependent on regularity in this important funtcion; whenever there is the slightest indication of constipation' a mild laxative should be taken to relieve the congestion and dispose of the accumulated waste. Cathartics or purgatives should not be employed, however; these are too violent in action and their effect is only temporary. A mild laxative such as the combination of simple laxative herbs with pep-

" "A Peruvian of an old Indian family," she replied, in a low tone, as if the words were forced from her. "She has come to New York with her son, Alfonso. You remember you met him. He is studying here at the University." Again I noted the different manner in which the spoke the two names of mother and son. Evidently there was some feud, some barrier between her and the elder woman, which did not extend to Alfonso. Kennedy reached for the University catalogue and found the name, "Alfonso de Moche." He was, as he had told us, a post-graduate student in ta; engineering school and, therefore, not hi any of Kennedy's own classes. "You say your father knew the Senora?" asked Kennedy. "Yes," she replied, in a low voice, "he had had some dealings with her. I cannot say Just what they were; I do not know. Socially, of course, it was different. They did riot belong to the same circle as ours in Lima." Prom her tone I gathered that there existed a race prejudice between those of old Spanish descent and the descendants of the Indians. That, however, could not account for her attitude. At least with her the prejudice did not extend to Alfonso. "Senora de Moche is a friend of Mr. Whitney?" queried Kennedy. "Yes, I believe she has placed some of her affairs in his hands. The de Moches live at the Prince Albert Hotel, and Mr. Whitney lives there, too. I suppose they see more or less of each other." "H-m," mnsed Kennedy. "You know Mr. Whitney, I suppose V ' - . "Not very well," she answered. "Of course, I have met him. He has been to visit my father, and my father has been down at his office, with Mr. Lockwood. But I do not know much about him, except that he is what you Americans call a promoter." Apparently, Inez was endeavoring to be frank in telling her suspicions, much more so even than Norton had been. But I could not help feeling that she was trying to shield some one, though not to the extent of consciously potting us on a wrong scent "I shall try to see Mr. Whitney as noon as possible," said Kennedy, as she rose to go. "And Senora de Moche, too." I fancied that Senorita Inez, although she had not told us much, felt relieved. Again she murmured her thanks as she left and again Kennedy repeated his Injunction to tell everything that happened that could possibly have any bearing on the case. ''That's rather a peculiar phase," he considered, when we were alone, "this de Moche affair." "Yes," I agreed. "Do you suppose that woman could be using Whitney for some purpose?" "Or Whitney using her," suggested Kennedy. "There's so much to be done at onco that I hardly know where

I had some writing on my news story to do, and went into the room next to the laboratory, where I was soon busily engaged tapping my typewriter.
