THE GOLD OF BY ARTHUR B. REEVE
THE GODS (A Mystery of the Incas Solved by Craig Kennedy, Scientific Detective)
"Such, at least, is the gossip down here. I cannot presume . to keep you posted at such a distance, but thought I had better write what Is in every one's mouth. A3 for the inscribed dagger which Norton has taken with him, I rely on you to inform me. There seems to be a great deal of mystery connected with it, and I am unable even to hazard a guess as to its nature. Fortunately, you are on the spot. Very sincerely yours,' "Haggerty." "So." remarked Kennedy, as he read over the translation of the skiagraph which he had Jotted down as we picked out the letters and words, "that's how the land lies. Everybody seems to have appreciated the importance of the dagger." "Except Norton," I could not help putting in in disgust. "And now it's gone," he continued, "Just as though some one had dropped It overboard. I believe I will keep that appointment you made for me with Whitney, after all." Thus it happened that I found myself a third time entering Whitney's building. I was about to step into the elevator, when Kennedy tugged at my arm and pulled me back. . "Hello, Norton," I heard him eay, as I turned and caught sight of the archaeologist just leaving an elevator1 that had come down. Norton's face plainly showed that he was worried. "What's the matter?" asked Kennedy, putting the circumstances together. "What has Whitney been doing?" Norton seemed reluctant to talk, but having no alternative motioned to
i us to step aside in the corridor. , "It's the first time I've talked with him since the dagger was stolen that is, about the loss," he said nervously. "He called mo up half an hour ago ' and asked me to come down." I looked at Kennedy significantly. Evidently it must have been Just after his return to the office and receipt of the letter which I had stuck in the
letter slot. "He was very angry over something, continued Norton. "I'm sure it was not my fault if the dagger was stolen, and I'm sure that managing an exepdition in that God-forsaken country doesn't give you time to read every inscription, especially when it is almost illegible, right on the spot. There was work enough for months that I brought back, along with that. Sometimes Whitney's unreasonable." "You don't think he could have known something about the dagger all along?" ventured Craig. Norton puckered his eyes. "He never said anything," he replied. "If he had asked me to drop other things for that, why, of course, I would have done so. We can't afford to lose him as a contributor .to the exploration fund. Confound it I'm afraid I've put my foot in it this time." Kennedy said nothing, and Norton continued, growing more excited: "Everybody's been talking to Whitney telling him all kinds of things Lockwood, the de Moches, heaven knows who else. Why don't they come out and face me? I've a notion to try to carry on my ' work independently. Nothing plays hob with scholarship like money. You'd think he owned me body and soul, and the collection, too, if you heard him talk. Why, he accused me of carelessness in running the Museum, and heaven knows I'm

SALTS IF BACKACHY
AND KIDNEYS HURT
Stop Eating Meat for a While If Your Bladder Is Troubling You.
When you wake up with backache and dull misery in the kidney region
it generally means you have been eat
ing too much meat,says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which overworks the kidneys in their effort to filter it from the blood and they become sort of paralyzed and loggy. When your kidneys get sluggish and clog you must relieve them, like you relieve your bowels; removing all the body's urinous waste, else you have headache, sick headache, dizzy spells; your stomach sours, tongue is coated, and when the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of sediment, channels often get sore, water scalds and you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. Either consult a good reliable physician at once or get from your pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithla, and has been used for generations to clea and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize acids in the urine so it no longer Irritates, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is a life saver for regular meat eaters, tl is inexpensive, can not injure and makes a delightful, ef
fervescent mnia-water drink. Adv. i
not the curator I'm not even the Janitor!" . , Norton was excited, but I could not help feeling that he was also relieved. "I've been preparing for the time when I'd cut loose," he went on Inally. "Now, I suppose it is coming. Ah, well, perhaps it will be better who can tell? I may not do so much, but U will all be mine, with no strings attached. Perhaps, after all, it io for the best." Talking over his troubles seemed to do Norton some good, for I am sure he left us in a better frame of mind than we had found him. Kennedy wished him good-luck, and we again entered the lift. We found Whitney in an even greater state of excitement than Norton had been. I am sure that if it had been any one else than Kenjedy he would have thrown him out, but he seemed to feel that he must control himself in our presence. "What do you know about that fellow, Norton, up at your place?" he demanded, almost before we had seated ourselves. . . ' "A very hard-working, ambitious man his colleagues tell me," returned Kennedy, purposely I thought, as if it had been a red rag flaunted before a bull. " Hard - working yes ," bellowed Whitney. He has worked me hard. I send him down to Peru yes I put up most of the money. Then what does he do? Just kids me along, makes me think he's accomplishing a whole lot when he's actually so careless as to let himself be robbed of what he gets
with my money. I tell you, you can't trust anybody. They all double-cross you. I swear, I think Lockwood and I ought to go it alone. I'm glad I found that fellow out. Let himself be robbed a fine piece of work! Why, that fellow couldn't see through a barn door after the horse was stolen," he concluded, mixing his metaphores in his anger. ? "Evidently someone -has been telling you something," remarked Kennedy. "We tried to. see you twice thi3 morning, but could not find you." , His tone was one' calculated to impress Whitney with the fact that he had been watching and had some idea of where he really was.- Whitney shot a sharp glance at Craig, whose face betrayed nothing. "Ambitious I should say so," re
peated Whitney, reverting to. Norton to cover up this new change of the subject "Well let him be ambitious. We can get along with him. I tell you, Kennedy, no one is indispensable. There is always some way to get along if you can't get over and obstacle, you can get around it. I'll dispense with Mr. Norton. He's an expensive luxury, anyhow. I'm just as well satisfied."
