THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM," WEDNESDAY, JAN. 10, 1917

' THE BURGLAR POWDER It was not until after dinner that we heard again from Norton. He had evidently spent the time faithfully hanging about the Prince Edward Albert, but' Whitney, had not come in, although the Scnora and Alfonso were about. "I saw them leaving the diningroom." he reported to us in the laboratory afterward, just as Whitney came in. They could not see me. I

Lirvn suuu tare vi luai. rui, aa;, there is a change in Whitney, isn't there? I wonder what caused it?" "It's as noticeable as that?" asked Kennedy. . "And did she notice it?" "I'm sure of it," replied Norton confidently. "She couldn't help it. Besides, after he left her and went into the, dinins-room himself she and Alfonso seemed to be discussing something. I'm sure it was that.", Kennedy said nothing, except to thank Norton and compliment him on his powers of observation. . Norton took the praise with evident satisfaction, and after a moment excused himself, saying that he had some work to do ovar in the Museum. He had no sooner gone than Kennedy took from a drawer a little packet of powder and an atomizer full of liquid, which he dropped into his pocket. "I think the Prince Edward Albert will be the scene of our operations, 1o-ni(?ht, Walter," he announced, leaching for his hat He seemed to be In a hurry and it "was not many minutes before we entered. As he passed the dining-room he glanced in. There was Whitney, not half through a leisurely dinner. Neither of the de Moches seemed to be downstairs. . Kennedy sauntered, over to the desk and looked over the register. We already : knew that Whitney and the Senora had suites On the eighth floor on opposite sides and at opposite ends of the hall. The de Moche suite was under the number 810. That of Whitney was 825. "Is either 823 or 827 vacant?" asked Kennedy, as the clerk came over to us. "Yes, 827 is vacant," he found. "I'd like to have it," said Kennedy, making some excuse about our luggage being delayed, as he paid for it for the night. "Front!" called the clerk, and a moment later we found ourselves in the elevator riding up. . " 1 ; , The halls were deserted at that time in the evening except for a beMed theatre-goer, and in a few minutes there would ensue a period in which there was likely to be no one about. We entered the room next to Whit

ney's without being observed by any of whom we cared. The boy left us, tmd it was a simple matter after that to open a rather heavy door that communicated between the two suites and vaa not protected by a Yale lock fhetcad of switching on the lights, Kennedy first looked about carefully until he was assured that there was

UOjOne tnere. it seemed to me to be fin unnecessary caution, for we knew Whitney was downstairs and would probably be there a long time. , But he seemed to think, it necessary. Positive that we were alone, he made a hasty survey of the rooms. Then he seemed to select as a starting point a table in one corner of the sittingroom on which lay a humidor and a heavy metal box for cigarettes. Quickly he sprinkled on the floor, from the hall door to the table on which the case of cigarettes lay, some of the powder which I had seen him

wrap up In the laboratory before we left. Then, with the atomizer, he sprayed over it something that had a pungent, familiar - odour walking backwards from the hall door to the table, as he sprayed. "Don't you want more light?" I asked, starting to cross to a window, to let the moonlight stream in. "Don't walk on it, Walter," he -whispered, pushing me back. "No, I don't need any more light." "What are you doing?" I asked, mystified at his actions. "First, I sprinkled some powdered iodine on the floor," he replied, "and then sprayed over it enough ammonia

to moisten it. It will evaporate quickly, leaving -what I call my anti-burglar powder." "I'm sure I wouldn't be thought one of the fraternity for the world," I observed, stepping aside to give him all the room he wanted in which to operate. He had finished his work by this time and now the evening wind was blowing away the slight furaea that had arisen. For a few moments he left our door into Whitney's room open, in order to insure clearing away the odour. Then he quietly closed it, but did not lock it. To be continued

Fifty-eight per clock-tick

Every time the clock ticks, fifty-eight Fatimas are lighted somewhere in the United States. No other high-grade cigarette has so many unchanging, unswerving friends. . This shows that men do appreciate cigarettecomfort For, Fatimas are comfortable. Not only comfortable wfcife you smoke, but more than that, comfortable after you smoke even though you may smoke the whole day through. The Fatima Turkish blend is so carefully balanced that it has none of the after-effects of heavier, less skilfully blended tobaccos. That's why Fatimas are comfortable (hence, sensible) as your first package will prove.
