This Is done by the detector. Detector may be purchased, and I have shown two types of ready-made instruments in my drawInr. but for a small sum you can make one yourself. Kvery home-made detector is made in a different way and of different materials, for there are only two e T.tial points to be kept In mind when constructing one. First, there must be provided some means of holding the "cat whisker" so it can be moved about and adjusted" on the crystal, and second there also . 6y LOUIS J05EPH ClCm by LouU JoKYum (Continued From Our Inst Issue) But always ere now he had fortifUd and shriven her conscience with tht belief thit they were of one mind, it must and would be"- Reno first. . . .

Once more his aims were empty. And this time when he started in pursuit, something he couldn't see struck him brutally in the chest and threw him back. In the same instant he heard a heavy, crashing noise he couldn't account for. An inhuman sound. It shook the room, beat deafenlngly upon one's ears. As if somecne had overturned a heavy 'piece of furniture. Only no one had. Certainly he badnX certainly Lucinda hadn't. She was flattened against the farther wall, watching: him with a face of horror, blanched and gaping. Enraged, he put forth all his strength to recover from that inexplicable blow. And Instantly It was repeated. And again,. Each time accompanied by that savage, crasning noise. Like thunder cut off fhcrt. And each time he reeled under the Impact, and Flekenlng pain shot through him, like knives white-hot. He felt himself sinking. In expiring flashes of consciousness he saw Lucinda. still flat against the wall, staring not at him but at a French window nearby. Between its curtains a woman' arm was thrust, the hand grasping an automatic pistol with murzle faintly fuming. There was a face of shadowed pallor dimly visible beyond the curtains, .a face with wild, exultant eyes. ... Nelly's. .. . XXXXI To the woman pinned to the wall by shock the moments immediately following that murderous fusillade vere a raving welter of horrors. Between two heartbeats she saw Lynn, with a face as blank as paper, spinning, toppling, beating the air with aimless arms, pitching to the floor like something blasted, resting! there in a sickening, inert crumple: J and was keenly aware of the acrid ! rck of smokeless powder cutting, as ! acid cuts oil. the sensuous scent of the roses that dressed the room in ' her honor: and all the while was I conscious of the pistol nosing In be-! tween the draperies like an animate i thing of Infinite malice, and the pal- ! lid oval of the face behind It. that ' stemed to float in the dark asj might the mask of some mad ghost.) As the din of thoe three shots Ics: weight and "volume. a thin shouting became audible from seme! point outside the houe. and Nelly j Marquis, with the sweep of a fury. her eyes burning like black opals, i broke through the hanging- at the j window, and pulled up with pis'ol j leveled point-blank at Lucinda's ' breast. A single thought persisted: An-j other Instant and I shall be as Lynn. Then abruptly through the win-! dew a dark and heavy body hurled : and fastened upon the woman's i back, swinging her aside. th pistol detonated with a bellow, the bullet plumped into the wall close by Lucinda's head. She heard a voice crying out again and again. "Bel! Bel! Bel!" Her own voice.... and for a long time hung in dread upon the Issue of that swaying combat: while Bel clung to the woman's arm. muttering and panting in futile efforts to wrest her weapon away; while Nelly clawed, bit. kicke.L pounded her free f.st repeatedly !nto Bel's face, ar.d wrenched madly at her captive wrist. Of a sudden, from her hand t spiteful ton?ue of fire licked out at; Bel. his right arm flailed back and fell usele. agony convulsed his features. Free, the woman bounded;

The crystal is nothing more than lead sulphite, known under various names, as frelena. carborundrum, slllcan. etc. The success of your instrument depends greatly upon the s-ensitlveness of the detector, and for this reason it is well to buy a good, tested crystal. The crystal must be chipped off a bit. so that It has a bright surface and gives a good contact. away and with a laugh of maniac glee swung the pistol to bear upon his head. Without knowing what she did, Lucinda fiung herself upon Nelly's arm and bore it down. With deflected muzzle the pistol exploded for the last time. Dropping It, Nelly turned on Lucinda and dealt with her as might a madwoman. Impressions grew confused beyond assortment, of flopping wildly this way and that, of hot breath beating into her face, of her bare flesh suffering a rain of cruel blows. v Thrown off without warning, how she couldn't guess, she felt herself reeling back, tripping, falling. Some thing struck the back of her head a stunning blow, and she knew flickering nausea while denss mht like a moving cloud on every hand closed in upon her. Choking and coughiner, she unclosed her eyes upon the vlslcn of Bel's face. A hand holding a bottle of smelling salts dropped away from her nose. Bel saluted her reviving Intelligence with an even growl: "You'll do now, I guew. Try to pull yourself together. No time to lo.ie." "My head aches...."

FAMOUS WITS OF HISTORY Those who remember E. A. Sothern, who made the play, "Lord Dundreary," famous through his humorous impersonations of the character of that name, recall him as a clever wit and a charming gentleman, bubbling with fun and good humor. lie was forever playing jokes on his friends. But one time, one of these friends played a good joke on him. E. II. Southern, his son, tells of the incident in his "Melancholy Tale of Me." It happened this way: The elder Southern was at the height nf Vi 1 nonn .1 H t v fl a an nrtnr and was piaying "Dundreary" to Packed houses in New York, and to -nthui-iastic and appreciative audiences. His friend, Dr. Simpson, Induced him to take the play out of town to a nearby small place for an afternoon's performance. Southern felt he was doing the residents a favor, but they felt it even more than he did. They were greatly elated. Every seat in the house was sold. Dr. Simpson, glad of the opportunity to play a joke on the friend who had Joked him so often, saw his chance and seized it. He informed the residents of the fame of Sothern. and urged them to deport themselves accordingly. He asked them not to show their feelings by laughing or applause. lie said that people of refinement refrained from such express-Ion that it simply "was not done." The play started. Not a sound of welcome greeted the eminent actor jas he stepped upon the stage. The play continued. No laughs could be extracted by this not amusing of all comic characters. Southern was discouraged. Sampson from the wings kept hissing: "Isn't it greit! I never saw such enthusiasm! They're simply nad about it!" The first act ended. Southern told his friend he considered this audience "as dumb as oysters." Finally, in the third act. where he had bt-en accustomed, on accof.nt of j the deafening laughter and applause. ( to stop continually m his master-! piece a long moholugue he could hardly stand it. Not a sound came ! from the lips of one of the audience. The great comedian was strug gling. He was getting no smypathy, so heThought, from his audience. It came to a point where he simply j could endure It r.o longer. I He walked to the footlights, and in a pitiful and yet humorous way, sild: "Ladies and pentlemen. i you don't laugh. I can't go on." E. H. Sothern. in writing of thi f moment, savs: "Pandemonium broke loose. Peo- ! pie laughed and wept. My father j for once was nonplussed. but he c-.iught sight of Simpson in a box. ! self-possessed and smilelre.?. aiaa1 a light broke upon his dirkne??." '
