J WHAT DR. CALDWELL
LEARNED IN 47
' YEARS PRACTICE
A physician watched the results of
constipation for 47 years, and believed
$hat no matter how careful people are of
their health, diet and exercise, constipa
tion will occur from time to time. Of
next importance, then, is how to treat
It when it comes. Dr. Caldwell always
:was in favor of getting as close to nature
as possible, hence his remedy for consti
Fation, known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup
epsin, is a mild vegetable compound.
It can not harm the system and is not
habit forming. Syrup Pepsin is pleasant
tasting, and youngsters love it.
Dr. Caldwell did not approve of
drastic physios and purges. He did not
believe they wore good for anybody’s
system. In a practice of 47 years he
never saw any reason for their use when
Byrup Pepsin will empty the bowels just
as promptly.
Do not let a day go by without a
bowel movement. Do not sit and hope,
but go to the nearest druggist and get
one of the generous bottles of Dr. Cald
well’s Syrup Pepsin, or write “Syrup

Under the Mussolini regime, Italy
has no divorces and domestic difter
lences must be battled out In the
home. Hence, a Milan husband, who
had been quarreling violently with his
wife, was quick to take up what
seemed a laxity in the routine of
housekeeping.
“I see,” he snarled, “that you
haven't even washed today’s dishes
yet."
“It is my mistake,” admitted the
wife, much to the man’s surprise.
‘‘You see.” she added, “I did not ex
pect you to get home before midnight,
as usual, and why wash those dishes
that I had intended to break on your
'head when you came in?"

Jumping Meridians

“Oh, yes ... I guessed
that, though," Olson agreed
quietly, his eyes sfi’l on the
ember in his glass. lie sighed.
’‘I have lived a little, youngster.

know that a wo n;: 1 who loves

her."'
Olson's speech had a strjngj
effect. There was something of
Buell inherent truth and sin
cerity in his words that Jim
nr w°s silent. v r ng. Tie
had always wondered. Tho
skipper had gone hack, in his
dialect, to his own soul: it was
not so much as though he were
p foreigner speaking in Eng
lish to another man—it was
more like the old Norse phil
osopher, and the poet that is in
every Norseman, haltingly re
peating to himself the things
that he knows.
Jimmy got up slowly- It was
heresy—unfaithfulness to his
dream, the thoughts that the
words gave rise to.
He started out. “I suppose,”
he said slowly, ‘‘that she is
sending me for myself, too.
“I—hope so!” muttered the
master of the Adrienne as Jim
my went through the door.
Ey noon of the following day
there was a reply to his radio
gram: A chartered schooner
would pick him up off Minato^
during the night before the
Adrienne was due in Yokoha
ma harbor.
Days passed, bright and
glorious, as if to make up for
the rigours of the storm that
the ship had sailed through.
Jimmy was content, lie rest
ed, certain of his next step, en
joying the relaxation which
i came with the knowledge that
things were moving well and
that he would be a jump ahead
of His rival in his newly ar
ranged schedule just as cer
tainly as he would have been
had the Japanese government
approved his request for an
airplane.
The hours ahead were like
ly to prove strenuous, so he
spent a great part of his time
in his cabin, sleeping when he
could. He scarcely saw Aus

met in the dining room: and
at these times, for the sake of

lie stopped, his eyes riveted on
the crack at the bottom of the
door to his stateroom. A slip
o" paper was being shoved nn
d rneath. With a little cry, lie
leapt across the room for the
cl ’•knob.

end of the passageway, hut no
one was in sight. Puzzled, he
returned to his room and
picked up the, paper.
Jt was an envelope, unseal 'd
and unaddressed. “Possibly
friend Rogers may be trying to
scare me,” he smiled. Pulling
out the single slip inside,
though, he was surprised to
read:
Don’t take a drink to
night. And good luckl
Another unsigned message!
Jimmy ran his hand rumina
tively through his sandy hair*
“Now what the devil—t”
Only one thing1 was clear,
though the lather dried on his
faee and began to iteh his shin
before he left off deliberating
and came to the single conclu
sion. Someone knew of bis
plans and he was trying to
help him. That someone, who
ever it might be, apparently
knew, too, that it would be
folly for him to take a drink
There was only one reason
for that. He was not a heavy
drinker. There was no euanc?
of his getting drunk. It meant
that in some way any drink he
was to take that night would
be drugged, and he would be
unable to leave the Adrienne.
Beyond that point, however,
he was confronted with two al
ternatives. Possibly his in
formant knew of his intention
to leave the ship that night;
possibly his enemy, whoever it
was, knew of it, too. But it
was far from improbable that
either of them knew. It was
quite possible, in fact, that the
doped drink was destined to
keep him in his bunk when the
ship docked at Yokohama in
the morning, and thus prevent
him from catching the train
f< „■ Shimonoscki, which would
mean disaster.
Certainly, however, it would
do no harm to obey the warn
ing of the message. lie kolrcd

it with the writing on the slip

' CHAPTER XTT
He ate dinner alone. Captain
Olson, wiih whom he usually
sat, was asleep. Because Jim
my was leaving at sea that
night, Olson had decided to
take the mid watch, so as to
sec him off without the news |
of his departure being known.
“There’s no one needs to know
you've left the ship before we
get to Yokohama,” he had
said. “And not even there, for
the matter of that.”
Following the dinner hour,
Jimmy returned to his cabin
and packed what few belong
ings lie had into his small bag.
Everything was now ready for
hi-3 departure. As a last duty,
lie smilingly tucked away the
two messages he had received,
placing them carefully in his
wallet.
“Might he a collection of ’em
before this is over,” he told
himself. He promised himself
that some day he would find
time to chock up on Ilard
niuth.
Then, still smiling,' he re- 1
paired to the smoking room
and sat alone. Rogers was not
present, and the two reporters
who had been his frequent
companions on the voyage thus
formidable militaristic nation in ,
Europe, should not be cordially |
welcomed as a co-guarantor of the
moral prohibition of war. And in i
view of the well-known mental, not
to say official, reservations made ;
by some of the other and more in
fluential signatories to the pact. It \
scarcely lies in the mouth of any
one to question the sincerity of j
Russia in giving its approval to
that document. It at least attached
no conditions to its support of the
pact, which is all to its credit.
We believe that presently a new
day must come for Russia. It is
staggering to the end of an experi- |
ment in government, contrary to j
all tested moral and economic laws, i
far had retired to their state
room for a bridge game, an in
vitation to which lie had de
clined.
After a few minutes, as his
cigarct burned down, Jimmy
raised his hand and called a
steward. “Some Holland gin,
straight,” he ordered. “And
some plain water.”
The order came. Jimmy sat
hack and considered it, won
dering idly who was watching
him. The gin was slightly am
ber; but there was only the
slightest difference between it
and the water. Seven feet
away, the two were the same
in color. Not enough differ
ence, Jimmy mused, if—
lie did it ! Half of the water
in the larger glass he spilled
carefully on the floor. The
pony of gin he raised to his
lips, his fingers covering the
glass. Apparently he tossed it
off, and then, as he was about
to set the glass down, with a
deft movement of his wrist, he
emptied its entire contents into '
the remaining water.
The gin glass was empty.
For a few minutes lie sat there,
quietly. Then, with a sigh, he
arose and started for his cabin.
In half an hour he was asleep.
Whoever his enemy might be,
the latter might be certain
now that he was drugged.
It was 1:30 o’clock, Jimmy
saw by an instinctive glance at
the luminous dial on his wrist,
when a heavy pounding on his
door awakened him. He sat up
bewilderedly, and in the next
second, before he could speak,
the door was flung open and
Captain Olson hurled himself
in.
The master of the Adrienne
had his fists clenched and his
eyes were fierce. He switched
on the light with a quick
movement and then turned to
Jimmy.
“Get ready,” he said. “It’s
time. And while you’re get
ting ready—”
“What’s up!”
“Everything. You don’t
have to board that steamer if
you don’t want to. A plane is
waiting for you at \okoha
ma!”
“A plane!” Jimmy was still
bewildered as he struggled into
bis coat. “A plane?” lie re
peated. “Come on, Skipper,
let it, all out.”
“Don’t you see?” Olson de
manded. “That radio operator
found out tonight. And the
message that Toltio sent back
to you—was clm.ged!”
Jimmy shook his head. “This
is getting a bit deep, Skipper,
he said quietly. “Do you mean
that Tokio approved my re
quest for a plane and that the
message was altered?
“Exactly. An hour ago, the
chief radio operator found one
of his men searching through
the files of the day on which
you sent for the Minato
schooner. Remember the fel
low vou gave the first radio
to?”'
“Pale faced individual—sal
low. yes. And”—Jimmy’s eyes
lighted with sudden recollec
tion—“and I remember that 1
met Rogers right outside the
door. What—”
“Of course. Rogers went in;
the fellow was alone. lie
bribed him. T suppose, hut we
have no evidence. Then he got
a copy of your message, and
when the replv from Tokio
came, the sam* man received
it. The chief found the orig
inal of the message in the files,
after he’d got suspicious of the
operator and I’d put him on
the seent. The real message
from Tokio read: ‘Request ap
proved. Plane awaiting Yoko
hama.’ ”
Jimmy stepped back and
gave a soft whistle. “So they
changed it.” llis eyes nar
rowed. “It must have been
Rogers—the hound!”
“Of eourse. And tonight,
the same man was looking for
the messages sent while he had
been off duty. He didn’t find
your radio to Minato.”
“So no one knows I’m going
that way?
“Not yet. Are you—or shall
you take the airplane?”
•T i m m y smile d errinilv.
“We’ll make it a triple cross,
Meanwhile, let us not forget that
defenders of the divine right of
kings were once as bitter against
principles of pure dmocracy as the
representatives of the old order
are toward sovietism. History and
experience are perpetually con
founding the wise. Today there
are numerous schismatic sects
throughout the world whose doc
trines and practices are highly of

teaches that it is better to bear
with their errors as patiently as
possible and to have faith to be

work to the light. Every weapon

lie decided. “I’ll go by way
of Miuato and Vladivostok.
But—Lord, it bucks me up to
know that Japan was willing'.”
“I knew there was some
tiling wrong,” put in the cap
tain. “I knew. That was why,
when the chief operator came
to me tonight and said one of
his men had acted suspiciously
and had not been able to tell
why he was looking through
those files, I told him to look
for the other message. Pig!
That boy loses his license on
every ship that sails the seas!’’
Jimmy nodded gravely. A
radio operator was too vital a
part of the safety of the seas
for him to be corruptible.
Prom this point on, it was Cap
tain Olson’s affair. For him
self, the incident was ended,
lie had already wired ahead
and had his passport visas for
crossing Russia forwarded
from Tokio to Vladivostok. It
was too late now to change his
plans, and -he was not anxious
to, anyway.
“Wire Tokio, when you get
ashore, and explain for irte,
will you, Skipper?” lie asked.
“I’ll* thank them later by an
official letter.” I
Olson agreed. They heard
feet hurrying down the corri
dor, and at a sharp rap on the
door, Jimmy called out an in
vitation to enter. Tt was a
seaman, who saluted the cap
tain.
“The lights are off to star
board, sir.”
“Good. Let down the Ja
cob’s ladder,” commanded Ol
son.
Jimmy looked at liis watch.
It, was quarter before five. He
picked up liis bag, and togeth
er lie and the captain ascend
ed to the deck. Dawn would
be breaking, lie saw, in about
an hour.
The Jacob’s ladder was be
ing lowered as they reached
the rail. Off to the north, red
and green lights bore down
slowly, heading straight for
the Adrienne, until, quarter of
a mile away, they hove to. The
ship on the deck of which Jim
my stood was pushing its nose
through the water at a barely
perceptible speed, the engines
scarcely turning over. All
aboard was darkness; it
seemed that everyone was
asleep.
Olson put out his hand
gravely as the small boat from
the Japanese schooner bumped
against the side of the laddei ,
below and made tast.
“You’ve a hard journey, j
Jim,” he said, ‘‘Get on—and '
good luck, you young tramp!”
Jimmy descended the ladder
into the waiting boat. It
shoved off without a word
from the Japanese sailors
manning it, ami moved slov\l\
across the inky blackness of
the smooth waters. lie heard
a bell clang behind him in the
engine room of the Adrienne;
the water behind the big ship
churned furiously. Olson stood
erect, his hand upraised.
“Good luck!” came faintly
across the rapidly widening
distance separating the two
craft, and the Adrienne began
to move on into the darkness.
A few minutes later, the sole
passenger, Jimmy, was in
stalled in his stateroom aboard
the Japanese ship. Only the
captain greeted him, in a queer
pidgin English; the boat was
short handed, and everyone
clsrt was either at work or
asleep.
In 24 hours, Jimmy had ex
hausted every social possibil
ity of the staunch little Tokit
su Maru and was waiting for
the ship to make land. He
stood in the forepart of the
deck watching the heavy
waves that threatened momen
tarily to swamp the little boat,
and prayed that it would gain
tlie protection afforded by the
peninsula before the storm
which had been threatening
and was even then on its way,
broke in all its fury.
