The

Gold of the Gods

By Arthur B. Reeve

(A Mystery of tins Irtea Solved by Craig Kennedy. Scientific Detective)

A moment later lie took the light himself and held It close to the rods that supported the top. I saw him reach down and pall from them a few strands of dark hair that bad caught between the rods and bad been pulled out or broken. "No ; need of Bertillon's palette of human hair to identify that," be exclaimed. "There isn't time to study it and if there were it would be unnecessary. She was with him, all right." "Yes." agreed Lockwood. 'But where is she now where Is he? Could they have been hurt, picked up by some one and carried where they could get aid?" Burke shook bis head. "I inquired at the nearest house ahead. I bad to do it in order, to telephone. They knew nothing." "But they are gone " persisted Lockwood. "There is the bottom of the bank. Tou can see that they are not here." , Kennedy had taken the light and climbed the bank again and was now going over the road as minutely as If be were searching for a lost diamond. "Look!" he exclaimed. Where the Whitney car had skidded and gone over the bank, the tires had dug deep Into the top dressing, making little mounds. Across them now we could see the tracks of other tires that had pressed down the mounds. "Some one else has , been here," reconstructed Kennedy. "He passed, then stopped and backed up. Perhaps they were thrown out, unconscious,

and he picked them up." It seemed to be the only reasonable supposition. "But they knew nothing at the next bouse," persisted Burke. "Is there a road leading off before you get to the house?" asked Kennedy. "Yesit crosses the line into Mass&chU96ttS "It is worth trying it is the only thing we can do," decided Kennedy. "Drive slowly to the crossroads. Perhaps we can pick out the tire-prints there. They certainly won't show on the road itself, tt is too hard " At the crossing we stopped and Kennedy, dropped down on bis hands and knees again with the light. "There it is," he exclaimed. "The came make of anti-skid tire, at least There was a cut in the rear tire just like this. See? It is the finger-print of the motor car. I" think we are right. Turn up here and run slowly." On we went slowly, Kennedy riding cn the running-board of the car ahead. Suddenly be raised bis hand to stop, and jumped down. W gathered about him. Had he found a continuation of the tirettkckil There were tracks but be was not looking at them. Ht was looking between them. There ran a

thin line. . He stuck his finger in It and sniffed. "Not gas," be remarked. "It must Ynvo been the radiator, leaking. Per-

hapt he ran his car into Whitney s forced it oo far to the edge of the road We can't tell. But he couldn't hare gone far with that leak without finding vater or cracked cylinders." With redoubled interest now we resumed the chase. We had mounted a and had run down into the shadows of a valley when, following in the second car, we heard a shout from Knndv in the first. Hallway up the hill across the valley, he had come upon an abandoned car. It had evidently reached its limit, the momentum of the previous hill had carried it" so far up the other, then the driver had stopped it and

A Child Doesn't Laugh and Play If Constipated Look, Mother! Is tongue coated, breath feverish and stomach sour?

"California Syrup of Figs

Can t harm tender stomach, liver bowels.

A laxative today saves a sick child tomorrow. Children simply will not take the time from play to empty their bowels, which become clogged up with waste, liver gets sluggish; stomach sour. Look at the tongue, mother! If coated, or your child is listless, cross, feverish, breath bad, restless, doesn't eat heartily, full of cold or has sore throat, or any other children's ailment, give a teasponful of "California Syrup of Figs," then don't worry, because it is perfectly harmless, and in a few, hours all this constipation poison? xi sour bile and fermenting waste will gently move . out of the bowels, and you have a well, playful child again: A thorough "inside cleansing" is ofttlmes all that is necessary. It should be the first treat

ment given In any sickness. Beware of counterfeit fig syrups. Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bottle of "California Syrup of Figs," which has full directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-ups pla-inly printed on the bottle. Look carefully and see that it is made by the "California Fig Syrup Company." .Adv

let, it back slowly off the road into a clump of bushes that hid a little gully. But that was all. There was not a sign of a person about. Whatever had happened here bad happened some hours before. We looked about All was Cimmerian darkness. Not a house or habitation of man or beast was in sight, though, they might not be far away. We beat about the under-brush, but succeeded in stirring up nothing but rootquitos. What were we to do? We were wasting valuable time. Where should we go? "I doubt whether they would have kept on the road," reasoned Kennedy. "They must have known they would be followed. The hardest place to follow them across country." "With a lantern?" I objected. "We can t do it." " . Kennedy glanced at his watch. "It will be three hours before there is light enough to see anything by." he considered. "They have had at least a couple of hours. Five hours is. too good a start. Burke-take one of the cars. Go ahead along the road- We mustn't neglect that. I'll take the other. I want to get back to that house and call O'Connor. Walter, you stay here with the rest." We separated and I felt that, although I was doing nothing. I had my bands full watching these three. To be continued

. If you want to keep rcur hair in good condition, be careful That , rou wash it with. Most Eoaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the .'seal?., makes the hair brittle, -and is very harmful. Just plain multifled cocoanut oil (which is pure and entirely graaseless), j much better than the trjost expensive soap or anything else you can use for shampooing, as this can't possibly injure the hair. Simply moisten your hair with water and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls will make an abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the hair and salp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily, and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and "V leaves it ine and silkly, bright, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get . mulsified cocoanut oil at most any drug store. It is very cheap, and a few ounces is enough to kst everyone in Tie family for months. Adv. ' ' ."
