PART THREE Sherlock Holmes was as good as his word, for about one o'clock he rejoined us in the Colonel's smokingroom. He was accomponied by a little elderly gentleman, wno was introduced to me as the Mr. Acton whose house had been the scene of the original burglary. "I wished Mr. Acton to be present while I demonstrated this small matter to you," said Holmes, "for it is natural that he should take a keen interest in the details. I am afraid,
my dear Colonel, that you must regret
the hour that you took in such a stormy petrel as I am."
"On the contrary," answered the Colonel, warmly, "I consider it the greatest privilege to have been per
mitted to study your methods of work
ing. I confess that they quite surpass my expectations, and that I am utterly unable to account for your result. I have not yet seen the vestige of a clue." "I am afraid that my explanation may disillusion ycu, but it has always been my habit to hide none of my methods, either from my friend Watson or from any one who might take an Intelligent Interest in them. But, first, as I am rather shaken by the knocking about which I had in the dressing-room, I think that I shall help
myself to a dash of your brandy. Colonel. My strength has been rather tried of late." "I trust you had no more of those nervous attacks." Sherlock Holmes langhed heartily.
"We will come to that in its turn," said he. "I will lay an account of the case before you in its due order, showing you the various points which guidme in my decision. Pray interrupt me if there is any inference which is not perfectly clear to you. "It is of the highest importance in
the art of detection to be able to recognize, out of a number of facts, which are incidental and which vital. Otherwise your energy and attention must be dissipated instead of being concentrated. Now, in this case there was not the slightest doubt in my mind from the first that the key of the whole matter must be looked for in the scrap of paper in the dead man's hand. "Before going into this, I would draw your attention to the fact that, if Alec Cunningham's narrative was correct, and if the assailant, after shooting William Kirwan, had instantly fled, then it obviously could not be he who tore the paper from the dead man's hand. But if it was not he, it must have been Alec Cunningham himself, for by the time that the old man had
descended several servants were upon
the scene. The point is a simple one, but the Inspector had overlooked it because he had started with the supposition that these county magnates had had nothing to do with the matter. Now, I make a point of never having
any prejudices, and of following do
cilely wherever fact may lead me, and so, in the very first stage of the investigation, I found myself looking a
little askance at the part which had been played by Mr. Alec Cunningham. "And now I made a very careful examination of the corner of paper which the Inspector had submitted to us. It was at once clear to me .that it formed part of a very remarkable document. Here it Is. Do you not now observe something very suggestive about it?" "It has a very irregular look," said the Colonel. "My dear sir," cried Holmes, "there cannot be the least doubt in the world that it has been written by two persons doing alternate words. When I
draw your attention to the strong ts
of 'at' and 'to,' and ask you to com
pare them with the weak ones of
'quarter and 'twelve,' you will in
stantly recognize the fact. A verj
brief analysis of these four words1 would enable you to say with the utmost confidence that the. 'learn' and 'maybe' are written in the stronger hand, and the 'what' in the weaker." "By Jove, it's as clear as day!" cried the Colonel "Why on earth should two men write a letter in such a fashion?" "Obviously the business was a bad one, and one of the men who distrusted the other was determined that,
j whatever was done, each should have
an equal hand in it. Now, of the two men. it is clear that the one who wrote the 'at' and 'to' was the ringleader." "How do you get at that?". "We might deduce it from the mere character of the one hand as compared with the other. But we have
more assured reasons than that for supposing it. If you examine this scrap with attention you will come to the conclusion that the man with the stronger hand wrote all his words first, leaving blanks for the other to fill up. There blanks were not always suffi
cient, and you can see that the second man had a squeeze to fit his 'quarter' in between the 'at' and the 'to.' showing that the latter were already written. The man who wrote all his words
first is undoubtedly the man who
planned the affair." "Excellent!" cried Mr. Acton. "But very superficial," said Holmes
"We come now, however, to a point
which is of importance. You may not
be aware that the deduction of a man's age from his writing is one which" has been brought to considerable accuracy by experts. In normal cases one can place a man in his true
decade with tolerable confidence.
est. There is something in common between these hands. They belong to men who are blood-relatives. It may be most obvious to you in the Greek e'B, but to me there are many small points which indicate the same thing. I have no doubt at all that a family mannerism can be traced in these two specimens of writing. 1 am only, of course, giving you the leading results now of my examination of the paper. There were twenty-three other deductions which would be of more interest to experts than to you. They all tend to deepen the impression upon my mind ..hat the Cunninghams, father and son, bad written this letter. (To be continued.)
GRAND JURY ENDS GREENVILLE SESSION
Why We Pepgen of

An Open Statement to the Public Made by J. A. Quigley, One of the Owners of Quigley's Drug Stores. Tells How Pepgen Came to His Attention and Result of Thorough Investigation He Conducted.
GREENVILLE, O., Oct. 14. The grand jury for the October terra of court completed its session about 1:30 o'clock Wednesday afternoon, after being in session eight days.
The jury examined 107 witnesses during its sesion, covering 41 cases, found 32 true bills and ignored nine cases. Favors Administrator The jury in the case of Rachel Williamson vs. Leonard Marker, an ministrator of the estate of Rhoda Reed, after hearing the testimony and being charged by Judge Teegarden, returned a verdict after a short deliberation, at 11:30 o'clock Wednesday morning, for the administrator.

Mr. J. A. Quigley is one of the own-j
ers of Quigley's drug stores, the most enterprising drug concern in Richmond. In a personal statement made for publication, Mr. Quigley, after describ-' ing the investigation that was made by his concern and the results thereof, gives most emphatic endorsement to Pepgen, a new remedy that has attracted widespread attention. Pepgen is manufactured by the American Drug Co., of Dayton, Ohio. How it came to be introduced in Richmond is" told with remarkable clearness, emphasized by striking forcefulness in Mr. Quigley's statement. The statement follows: "Several months ago my attention
was attracted to a series of remark
able testimonials published in Indianapolis newspapers relating to a new remedy, Pepgen. These statements continued to appear and were of such
character that I decided that if they were true, we ought to have that remedy in our stores to offer to Richmond people. "We ordered a quantity of Pepgen. We have had Richmond people try it. We have had them tell their experience with it. "As a consequence, I endorse thi3
medicine, Pepgen, with all the assur
ance and confidence . justified by a thorough investigation. "We have sold many remedies in
our stores and 1 can truthfully state J
that I think we have found a remedy
that gives universal satisfaction and I am safe in saying that it is a splendid tonic for the stomach, kidneys, liver and nerves. "Pepgen is composed of a number of different roots and barks which are known for their tonic, appetizing and laxative effects. It is a non-secret medicine and every customer who has bought a bottle is well satisfied. ''Any person who asks about Pepgen at our stores will be given a full explanation."

say normal cases, because ill-health
and physical weakness reproduce the signs of old age, even when the invalid is a youth. In this case, looking at the bold, strong hand of the one, and the rather broken-backed appearance of the other, which still retains its
legibility although the t's have begun
to lose their crossing, we can say that the one was a young man and the other was advanced in years without being positively decrepit." "Excellent!" cried Mr. Acton again. "There is a further point, however, which is subtler and of greater inter-

Regains Old Time Ambition
AH! EPSOM SALTS LIKE LEMONADE You can now buy epsom salts without the awful taste and nausea, by asking your druggist for a handy package of "Epsonade Salts" which looks and acts exactly like epsom salts, because it is real epsom salts combined with fruit derivative salts, giving it the taste of sparkling lemonade. Take a tablespoonful in a glass of
cola water whenever you feel bilious, headachy or constipated. "Epsonade Salts" is the much talked of discovery of the American Epsom Association. Advertisement. UimmimitiiiHtiwmmilMniimimimmmutiiiimiiiiiiimiMimHtnutwiiitnin Satisfaction Guaranteed or Money Cheerfully Refunded- 1

"After taking Pepgen I can say that I have regained my old time ambition," says Grant Hunt, of 500 North Seventh street, Richmond. "Before 1 took Pepgen my health was in a run-down condition. My stomach was all upset. I was nervous, had headaches frequently and had to be careful what I ate. I often felt as if I couldn't go much farther unless I obtained relief. "Wonderful relief came to me through taking Pepgen. I can now eat whatever I desire and never a sign of a "come-back' in the way of indiges
tion, headache or nervousness." Pepgen has enabled thousands to be "Captains of Their Health." When
you have pains in your stomach after eating, headaches, backaches, tired feeling and weariness without due cause it is the sign of a general breakdown. The kidneys become inactive and poisons which are not eliminated collect in the system. Pepgen is designed to put the stomach, liver and kidneys in good condition. Pepgen makes the blood rich and pure. It has a beneficial effect upon the entire system. Try Pepgen! Pepgen is sold by all first class druggists everywhere. It is being specially introduced at the Quigley drug stores.
Another well known Richmond man who recommends Pepgen for the good it has done him is Ben N. Crump, of 221 S. W. Second street, Richmond. Mr. Crump is a prominent Richmond resident. He counts his friends by thousands. Regarding Pepgen, he says: "Some time ago I had the grippe and after I had passed the acute stages I was in a much run-down condition. The ailment left me weak. I didn't seem to be able to regain my strength. My stomach was affected
for I was not able to digest my food as formerly. "One day, in a conversation with a well-known attorney, I happened to remark that I did not feel well. He told me that Pepgen was a good tonic and builder. "I tried Pepgen with splendid results. It soon righted my stomach and
in a short time I regained former strength. I consider Pepgen a medicine of exceptional value and one that everybody should know about." Pepgen coaxes health in a reasonable way. It is especially designed to cleanse while it strengthens sick, sore stomachs and thus build health through the digestive and eliminative organs. Just as health is the source of energy, ambition and a sense of power that enables men and women to hope and work and win, so that digestive and eliminative organs are the source of health. Pepgen is sold by all first class druggists everywhere. It is being specially introduced at the Quigley drug stores.
Richmond Man Says Pepgen is Splendid Tonic
"Pepgen surely is a fine tonic," says W. S. Tittle, foreman of the Pan Handle Freight Depot, of 219 Richmond avenue, Richmond. "Pepgen brought me the right answer to a question I had often asked myself. That question was, 'How can I get my stomach in first-class condition?' In the first place Pepgen gave me a good appetite and the power to digest my food. In the second place I feel a great deal stronger since taking Pepgen. Yes, I think Pepgen is a fine tonic." Men and women who suffer from stomach trouble can find no better medicine than Pepgen. Pepgen is a
vegetable preparation. It contains no mineral taint that might rile the delicate linings of the stomach and really do more harm than good in cases of stomach disorders. Pepgen relieves gas, bloating and pain and brings a normal appetite, good digestion and proper assimilation. In addition, Pepgen tones up the liver, kidneys and nerves. It has a beneficial effect upon the entire system. Chemists worked three years to perfect Pepgen. When they finished they had given Pepgen the highest merit it was possible to obtain. Try this medicine that has helped so many others. Pepgen is sold by all first-class druggists eveyrwhere. It is being specially introduced at the Quigley drug stores.

"I know of scores of case.-: of stomach trouble, nervousness, constipation
'wnd other ills in Columbus that have
been relieved by Pepgen when other
medicines had entirely failed to pnduce the slightest results," says Mrs. Harriet Collins, well-known Columbus nurse who resides at 1172 E. Rich street, that city. Mrs. Collins is well qualified to speak in this connection. She has been a practical nurse lor the past seven years and has nursed in many of the capital city's most prominent and influential families She has a wide circle of friends in Ricbmoe.!.
jwho will be jus'tly pleased to r-at! about her experience with Pepgen ?-u-i
no doubt many of them will be relieved of long-standing illnesses by following her advice. Mrs Collins Is a member of Crown Chapter. Eastern Stars, the J. C. McCoy Relief Corps and Rambler Rebecca Lodge. In reciting her exper
ience with Pepgen. she says: "When the epidemic of influenza was at its height I was very busy nursing patients and I finally con-j traded the disease myself. I was a very sick woman and there were times when I didn't know whether or not I would ever get well. "However, the fever left my body after the disease had run its course
and I recovered to a point where I was able to leave my bed. But I was weak, yes, very weak, and as time went on I didn't gain strength. I was so weak that I did not dare trust myself on the street alone. "Besides my weakness, every particle of food I ate soured in my stomach, causing gas and bloating. I lost weight until I looked like a mere shadow of my former self.
"When night came I would roll and toss in bed because I could not sleep, arising in the morning feeling more tired than when I went to bed if such
a thing i3 possible.
"One day I stopped at a drug store
to purchase some medicine. The drug

"I said to the druggist. 'I didn't know

" 'Well,' he said to me, 'all I can tell you about 'Pepgen is that it i3 a preparation made from a vast number of different kinds of roots and barks, some of which I understand are very rare and hard to secure. "I decided to try Pepgen. and I told the druggist at the time that if it didn't help me, I guessed it wouldn't do me any harm and I was willing to try almost anything to regain my strength. . "When I had finished that bottle of Pepgen I felt much better. So much better that I procured another bottle

and as I continued to take the medicine I continued to improve until at last I felt like a new woman, "I want to say that I gained fifteen pounds. I do not have the slightest trouble with my stomach. No gas, no bloating. "I am now so strong and well that I am able to be in attendance at a long case and I do not feel unusually tired when I am dismissed. "One more thing about Pepgen. When I was sixteen I had typhoid fever, since which time I have had much trouble with constipation. After taking Pepgen that annoyance seems to have disappeared." Pepgen may be obtained at any first class drug store anywhere. It is beimr specially introduced at the Quielev drug stores. s -
