—the rezusrdofinternal cleanliness IF YOU do not keep clean internally your looks and health are undermined together. A clogged intesttoe breeds poisons that reach every part of the body. These poisons ruin the complexion and und ermine health. Constipation brings on such ailments as headaches, bilious attacks and insomnia, each of which saps your health and vitalit y. Avoid Laxatives—say Dodon Laxatives and cathartics do not overcome constipation, says a noted authority, bet by their continued use tend only to aggravate the condition. * Medical science has found st last in lubrication a means of overcoming constipation. The gentle iubneant, Nujol, penetrates and softens the hard food waste and thus hastens its passage through and out of the body. Nujol is not a medicine or laxative and cannot gripe. Like pure water, it is harmless. Take Nujol regularly and adopt this habit of internal deaniiness. For sale by aO druggists. lf£ Nuj ol as*, u*. . * for Internal Cleanliness

By CRITTENDEN MARRIOTT « W £T r-v CHAPTER XVlll—Continued “I—I—” Mrs. Archmans eyes widened and her Ups quivered. “Oh! Wbat shall I say?" she pried. “You don’t know—you don’t understand. I’ve got to tell you," she went on desperately. "Nellie isn’t my own daughter, though I love her as if she were. She—she—Nellie! Hasn't your father told you anything?” Nellie's lips were white. “My father?" she echoed. “Who is my father?" “1 can’t tell you. Henry never told me. It wasn't his secret. But I suspect—l suspect—” “1 do, too.” Nellie nodded slowly. "I’ve suspected for some time. Father Mid something. Mr. Dorth said more. And Captain Strindberg—but that’s got nothing to do with Jim.” She stretched out her hand tb the'young man. let It go for the present, but I’m going to marry Jim. Come on. 1 want to see the scene of the tight-" Van Kull shook his shoulders as if tossing off some heavy load. “Come along, then,” he said. “But prepare yourself. 1 guess some of the mutineers are pretty badly wounded. The sight won’t be a very pretty one.” Every one of the women caught her breath. “Oh! How wicked of me!” gasped Nellie. "I—l didn’t realize that men were dying out there. We must try to help.” The debris of the tight was being rapidly cleared away. Half a dozen dead were laid out on the banks, but nearly all the prisoners, both those who were wounded and those who were not, bad been put into the boats under guard, *ready to be sent out to the destroyer. Only Price remained on shore, watched by two sentinels. Clearly he was bejng reserved for some particular ; fate. But he met Nellie’s eyes un- j dauntedly as the party passed near him. “Well! You beat me.” he grit- | ted. “They’re going to string me up out of hund, I reckon.” Nellie stepped back uncertainly. "I’m —I'm sorry," she said faintly. “You ain’t got any cause to be sorry,” returned the man grimly. “I was going to do for you, all right, and for ail the rest of your folks, too. And I’d ha’ done It if it hadn’t been for these Danes. .D —n ’em! What on earth brings a Danish destroyer over here, anyway? 1 wish I could get some more of ’em before 1 croak." His eye followed Strindberg’s form maliciously, as the latter passed to and fro directing the movements of his men. ; “Say. lady," he went on. “1 don't bear you no malice. I don't bear none of your crowd no malice. It's only those crazy Danes, butting In Where they ain't got no business. I don't bear you no malice and I’ll tell you something. That there womans playing dirt on you.” He gestured toward Miss Denslow. “I reckon she’s the one that did that signaling. Anyway, sle’s disguised, and—” For a moment the man glared at Miss Denslow; then bis band shot out and caught at her white hair. The guards caught at him, but they were too late. The hair came away, exposing beneath it a pile of closely bound chestnut locks that crowned a face that had suddenly become twenty years younger. As Miss Denslow shrank back with a cry, drowned in a chorus of exclamations, Price burst out into a cackling laugh. “1 thought so," be cried. “You're Edith Grant." “No. she isn’t.” Young Archman sprang to the girl’s side. “She's Edith Archman.” “WelL I’ll be hanged!" The exclamation came from Van Kull, who was staring at the girl In amazement “1 thought you looked familiar, but 1 never saw you clearly since—" Nellie broke In. “Yes! 1 remember!" she exclaimed. “You were at Miss Grant’s cottage that night. You knew her—* “Knew her? Os course. 1 knew her 1 She’s my sister, Edith Van KuiL Site wanted to be an actress, and father wouldn't have It and so she went ahead on her own. Well. 1 guess that's over now. Congratulate you. brother-iu-law.” He held out his band to Harry Archtnan. Lord George stepped forward. “May 1 also offer good wishes?” he asked. Then as Edith took his hand, he turned to the others. “I had the pleasure of seeing Miss Grant——er — Mrs. Archman—on the stage once." he said. “1 recognized her on the El Rio and I didn’t quite understand, don't you know." Mrs. Archman had stool, bewildered for a moment, but as Edith turned toward her with trembling tips she suddenly reached out her arms. There! There! Dear!" she cried. “It’s all right. It doesn’t matter who you are or what you are. You've been the dearest girl in the world to me on this trip. Pm glad that Harry has got you!” “And 1 am, too'" Bess held out he* hand. “But I hope you’re not going to stop being my governess. Os course, we haven't really begun lessons yet, but—” She broke off with a shriek. Captain Strindberg bad come up behind U>rd George. Just as he reached the party. Price, who wu still waiting under guard a few feet away, snatched a pistol from the belt of one of bls watchers and tired pointblank at Strindberg. “Now I’ve got yOu. you d—n butter-in!” he yelled. As he pulled the trigger the other guard struck at him and the bullet went wild. But it did not miss altogether. Lord George whirled half around and stag gered back, clapping Ms hand to his left arm.

THE SYRACUSE JOUIWAL
For half a second he hesitated, then before them all, he kissed her squarely on the Ups. As he did so Archman ran up. “Hey! Wirat’s thlsF he cried. “What’s all this mean?” Bess snatched at him. “Don’t swear, pops!” she counseled innocently. “Save your cuss words. You’ve got worse shocks than this coming.” She glanced at Edith and then at Nellie. “However, we won’t talk about that now. Just shake hands with Lord George and —” But Strindberg broke in. While the others talked, he had been acting. Crimson with rage he had sprung toward the guards, who, too late, had fallen upon Price like thunderbolts. “Fools! Dolts! Blockheads!” he cried. Then he spun round on bls lieutenant, who came running up. Take that man out of sight and bang him to the nearest tree!” be ordered. The lieutenant saluted, gave a brisk order, and the men closed in around Price a®d marched him away up the slope di the ravine. Then the captain broke In On Bees’ words. “Mr. Archman,” he ordered sharply, “be good enough to lead me to his highness!” For perhaps ten minutes Archman’s boat, with Its lantern gleaming at the bow, pushed on through the darkness, following the convolutions of the stream. At last a gleam of duyllght appeared ahead, evidently shining in through some opening In the rocks. Close to It Arcbinan’s boat stopped and its pasengers clambered out This Is as far as the boats can go at this stage of the tide, captain,” he explained, as the latter’s boat came “At high tide we ean row through, but at present the channel beyond the opening is practically dry and we have to walk. If you will follow —” Strindberg bowed. “Lead on,” he said. The distance to be traversed was not great, and luckily so, for to unaccustomed adventurers the surroundings were terrifying. Geyserlike bursts of steam puffed up again and again in their faces; the crust on which they walked was hot to their feet, and almost continual tremors ran through the earth. When at last they pushed through the final curtain of mist and came out close to a house, there was not one of the party but drew a long breath of relief, even though they all knew that the crater had long been occupied by men and must be perfectly safe. In front of the building Archman halted. “Friends all,” he said. “Captain Strindberg! The time has come to lift a curtain that fell more than twenty years ago, when one whose name I will not mention, even now. quit his great place In the world to “Would the Daughter of His Highness Have to Give Up Her Americanism, Her Home, Her Lover, Her AflF marry “the woman of bis choice. He sailed away with her to conceal himself so that he might live in democratic freedom from the restrictions that hedge about a court. Here he: came and here he has lived sin.-e. and here his wife is buried. “He did not live idly. He had already won a reputation for chemical research, and here he broadened and expanded bis knowledge. He called to his aid the heal and gases that alone survived of the mighty forces that once tilled this place. Many Inventions he made and marketed through me. his servant. Many secrets of nature he discovered, among others the secret of the diamond. He harnessed the volcano and bent it to bls will. "One lot of diamonds he made and sent to me by the hands et bis servant, Morbach. Most of you know bow Morbach was robbed and murdered. 1 do not know whether the criminal has been discovered—” “Not the murderer, father ” It was Nellie who Interrupted. “But the man.

fled that it was he who signuieu i the pursuing ship and”—Archmiu broke off —“I will ask Captain Strind berg to remove nim from the El S!o. He turned to the officer. “Captain.” he finished, “perhaps you will explain." The captain shrugged his shoulders. “His highness is needed in Denmark,” he Mid. “Our secret service knew he would be needed sooner or later, and when he disappeared we tried to find him. Little by little we picked up the trait We learned of Archmaa and of Morbach and of the existence of children.” His eyes wandered to Nellie. “And now we have found him. In the search we have had to do things that we regret; but one cannot be squeamish when kingdoms—even small ones—are at stake. Success excuses all!” He shrugged his shoulders. “Enough I” he snapped. “Lead me to his highness.” Archman bowed. ’ “Come!” he Mid. and turned toward the house. Side by side the two mounted the stairs and entered the door. Behind them came the rest of the civilians. The sailors, under the command of the lieutenant, remained outside. Archman threw open the door of the room to the right of the ball and ushered In his companions. He took off bis bat as be entered; and rhe others, after a gasp of comprehension, did likewise. In the middle of the room, on two trestles, surrounded by flaring tapers, rested a coffin draped In black, whose open glass front revealed the figure of a huge man whose waxen features bore, even In death, an ineffaceable air of majesty and mastery. Archman looked at him reverently. “This is his highness.” he said. The officer blinked. “I recognize him.” he said, after an instant. “He is not very greatly changed since 1 knew him.” “I, tool” Lord George stepped forward. “I knew his highness yesrs ago. That was why I was selected by my government to follow a clew associated with Mr. Archman and try to find him. I recognize him. He was a real statesman—one who gave promise of being a powerful figure In Europe, captain. Naturally my government, like many others, was interested in his gtrange disappearance. There have been juniors of a great war, you know.” Strindberg bowed. “I thank you, Lord Caruthers,” be said. "His highness’ death will be a great blow to Denmark. And his sons and daughters? What of them?" he looked at Archman. “He leaves no sons!” Archman , spoke deliberately. “PerhaM It Is as well. The marriage of bls highness was morganatic and a son might complicate matters. But a daughter would be different.” The captain’s eyes wandered to Nellie, who stood hand in hand with Van Kull. "HIS majesty instructs me to say that his feelings toward any daughter are of the kindest. He offers her a title, great wealth, and a noble husband — everything that the customs of our country permit.” The captain turned to Archman. “You can, of course, furnish proofs as to her identity?" he questioned. “Yes!” Archman rose from a safe into which he had been delving and came forward. In his hands he held a sheaf of folded papers. “Yes!” he repeated. ’The proofs are all here and are in due order. His highness meant to give them to his daughter yesterday. Unfortunately he decided to wait till today, hoping to be stronger. But last evening he died. I was with him when I received the news of the arrival of the El Rio. That was why I delayed. But the proofs are indubitable. I hand them to her who is more concerned.” With a sudden gesture he placed the papers in Nellie’s hands. “Take them, my dear!” he said, his voice breaking. Van Kull dropped the girl’s hand and stepped back. His face was very white. Nellie glanced at him. Then her eyes circled the room, and she shrank hack slightly as she met the .eyes centered upon her. -Then with •. quick Indra wing of breath she spoke. “Captain Strindberg,” she said clearly, “let me understand. Would the daughter of Ms highness have to give up her Americanism, her home, her lover, her all?" The captain bowed. "Madame." he spid, “it would be almost Impossible for her to avoid doing so.” Nellie nodded. “And in return she would get—what? An Introduction to a court of strangers, a sum of money, a husband picked out for her by someone else? I’m sorry, but the price is too high!” With a sudden movement she thrust the papers into rhe flame of one of the tall tapers that burned at the dead man’s head. As they flamed up Strindberg made a sudden movement to snatch them.. Then, as abruptly, he desisted and stood atlll while the papers burned. With fitting ceremony, they burled the dead stateaman that afternoon. In the evening, when they were all gathered togethef.
