Following Rumania's entry Into the war the Royal Palace. at Bucharest was converted into a ' hospital. Since that time many hundreds of wounded Rumanians and Russians have been received there, where many of them receive personal attention from Queen Marie, who is shown in the photograph in her uniform of a Red Cross nurse, attending a wounded soldier. - . , . . , ,

THE GOLD OF BY VRTHUR B. REEVE

THE GODS (A Mystery of the Incas Solved by Craig Kennedy, Scientific Detective)

"I can't, rid my mind of that warning," he remarked anxiously, pausing In his measured tread. 'It seems inconceivable to me that any one "would take the trouble to send four such warnings unless he meant it." "Quite so," I agreed, relating to him what had Just happened. "I thought of something like that," he acquiesced, "and I have, already taken some precautions." ; Norton waved his hand at the windows, which I had noticed before. Though they i were some distance above the ground, I saw now that he had closed and barred them at the expense of ventilation. The warnings seemed to have made more of an impression on him than on any of the rest of us. , "One never can tell where or when a blow will fall with these people," he explained. "You see, I've lived among them. They are a hot-blooded race. Besides, as you perhaps have .read, they have some queer poisons down in South America. I mean to run no unnecessary chances." "I suppose you suspected all along that the dagger had something to do with the Gold of the Gods, did you not?" I hinted. Norton paused before answering, as though to weigh his words. "Suspectedyes," he replied. " But, as I told you, I have had no chance to read the Inscription on it. I can't say I took it very seriously until now." "It's not possible that Stuart WhitBey, who, I understand, is deeply interested in South America, may hae Lad some inkling of the value of the dagger, is it?" I asked thoughtfully. For a full minute Norton gazed at me. "I hadn't thought of that," he admitted at length. "That's a new idea to me." Yet somehow I knew that Norton had thought of it, though he had not yet spoken about it. Was it through loyalty to the man who had contributed to financing his expeditions to South America? "Do you know Senora de Moche well?" I ventured, a moment later. "Fairly well," he replied. "Why?" "What do you think of her?" "Rather a clever oman," he replied noncommittally. "I suppose all the people-in -New York who were interested in Peru knew her," I pursued, adding, "Mr. Whitney, Mendoza, Lockwood." Norton besitatedfl as though he was afraid of saying too much. While I could not. help admiring his caution, I found that it was most exasperating Still, 1 was determined to get at his point of view, if possible. "Alfonso srems to be a worthy son, then," I remarked. "I can't quite make out, though, why the Senorita should have such an obvious prejudice against her. It doesn't seem to extend to him." "I believe," replied Norton reluctr.ntly, "that Mondoza had been on rather intimate terras with her.' At least, I think you'll find the woman vrry ambitious tor her son. I don't

think she would have stopped at much to advance his interests. You must have noticed how much Alfonso thinks of the Senorita. But I don't think there was anything that could have overcome the old Castilian's prejudice. You know they pride themselves on never intermarrying. With Lockwood it would have been different." I thought I . began to get some glimmering of how things were. "Whitney knows . her pretty well now, doesn't he?" I shot out. Norton shrugged his shoulders. But he could . not have acquiesced better than by. his, very manner. "Mr. Lockwood 1 and Mr. Whitney know" best what they are doing," he remarked at length. "Why don't you and Kennedy try to see Senora de Moche? I'm a. scientist, you know. I dislike talking about speculations. I'd prefer only to express opinions about things that are certainties." Perhaps Norton wished to convey the Impression that the subjects I had broached were worth looking into. At least it was the impression I derived.- ' "Still,'? he continued slowly, "I think I am justified. in. saying this much: I myself have been interested in watching both' Alfonso de Moche and Lockwood when it comes to the case of the Senorita, All's fair, they say, In love aud.wajr. .If I am any judge, there are both in this case, somewhere. I think yon had better see the Senora and judge for yourself. She's a clever woman I know. But I'm sure that Kennedy could make her out, even if the rest of us can't." I thanked Norton for the hint he had given, and after chatting a few moments more left him alone in his office. In my room again, I went back to finish my writing. Nothing further occurred, however, to excite my suspicions and at last I managed to finish it. I was correcting what I had written when the door opened from the laboratory and Craig entered. He had thrown off his old acid stained labora-

tory smock and was now dressed to venture forth. "Have you found put anything about the poison?". I asked. ' "Nothing definite yet," he replied. "That will - take some time now. It's a strange poison ari alkaloid, I'm sure, but not one that one ordinarily encounters. Still, I've made a good beginning. . It won't take long to determine it now." Craig listened with deep interest, though without comment, when I related what had happened, both Norton's conversation and about the strange visitor whom we had had peering into our windows. "Some one seems to , be very much interested in what we are. doing, Walter," he concluded simply. '1 think we'd better do a little more outside work now, while we have a chance. If you are ready so am L, I , want to--see .what sort of treasure hunter this Stuart Whitney is. I'd like to know whether he is in on this secret of the Gold of the Gods, too." ; The Wall Street Promoter Lockwood, as we now knew, had become allied in some way with a group

of Wall Street capitalists, headed by Stuart Whitney. Already I had heard something of Whitney. In the Street he was well known as an Intensely practical man, though far above the average exploiter both In eleverness and education. As . a matter of fact, Whitney had been , farsighted enough to see that scholarship could be capitalized, not only as an advertisement, but in more direct manners. Just at present one of his pet schemes was promoting trade through the canal between the east coast of North America and the west coast of South America. He had spent a good deal of money promoting friendship between men of affairs and wealth in both New York and Lima. It was a good chance, he figured for his investments down in Peru were large, and anything that popularized the country in New York could not but make them more valuable. - - i : ' "Norton seemed rather , averse to talking about Whitney," I ventured to Craig, as we rode down town. 'That may be part of Whitney's cleverness," he returned thoughtfully. "As a patron of art and letters, you know, a man can carry through a good many things that otherwise would be more critically examined." Kennedy did not say it in a way that implied that he knew anything very bad about Whitney. Still, I reflected, it was astute in the man to Insure the co-operation of such people as Norton. A few thousand dollars judiciously spent on archaeology might cover up a multitude of sins of high finance. Nothing more was said by either of us, and at last we reached the financial district. We entered a tall skyscraper on Wall Street just around the corner from Broadway and shot up In the elevator to the floor where Whitney and his associates had a really palatial suite of offices. As we opened the door we saw that Lockwood was still there. He greeted us with a rather stiff bow. "Professor Kennedy and Mr. Jameson," he said simply, introducing us to Whitney, "friends of Professor Norton, I believe. I met them today up at Mendoza's." "That is a most Incomprehensible affair," returned Whitney, shaking hands with us. "What do you make out of it?" . Kennedy ' shrugged his shoulders

and turned the remark aside without

committing himself.

Stuart Whitney was a typical promoter, a large, full-blooded man, with a face red and inclined to be puffy

from the congested veins. His voice alone commanded respect, whether he said anything worth while or not. In

fact, he had but to say that It was a warm day and you felt that he had

scored a telling point in the conver

sation.

"Professor Norton has asked me to look into the loss of an old Peruvian dagger which he brought back from

his last, expedition," explained Ken nedy, endeavoring to lead the conver

sation in channels which might ar

rive somewhere. (To be Continued)

, If you must have your meat every day, eat It. but flush your kidneys with salts occasionally, says a noted author ity whp tells us that meat forms uric acid which almost paralyzes the kidneys in their efforts to expel it from the blood. They become sluggish and

wesken, then you suffer with a dull'

misery in the kidney region, sharp pains in the back or sick headache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coated and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine gets, cloudy, full of sediment, the channels often get sore and irritated, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. To neutralize these irritating acids, to cleanse the kidneys and flush off the body's urinous waste get four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy here; take a tablespoonful in a

glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will thenj act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has I toon used for generations to flush ai)d "fimulate sluggish kidneys, also to!

neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder weakness. , s Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot injure, and make a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink. adv.
