WHY PEOPLE SUFFER.
Too often the kidneys nre the causo
and the sufferer is not nwnro of it.
Sick kidneys bring backache and side
pains, lameness nnd stiffness, dizzi
ness, headaches, tired fooling, urinary
troubles. Doau'u Kid
ney Pills cure the
cause. Mrs. N. E.

iown, says: "I suf
fered from kidney
trouble for years.
The secretions were
disordered, there
were pains In my back and swellings
'of tho ankles. Olten I had smother

One Cause of Neck Bolls.
Neck bolls come with the sweaty
season. Many ieople have large hair
pores on tho back of tho neck. The
sweaty, starched collar rim is good
culture soli for boll and carbuncle
germs, which get rubbed into the
largo hair follicles or sacks, producing
a painful, sometimes dangerous
spreading crop.

CHAPTER VIII. Continued.
"Very Rood, sor." Tho janltor-valct
had previous experiences with Malt
land's generosity In Ktateful memory;
nnd shut his lips tightly In promise
of virtuous reticence.
"You won't regret It. Now tell mo
what you mean hy saying that you saw
me go out at ono this afternoon?"
Again tho flood gatos were lifted;
from the dclugu of explanations and
protestations Maltland extracted the
general drift of narrative. And In tho
end held up his hand for silence.
"I think I understand, now. You say
ho had changed to my gray suit?"
O'Hagan dartod Into tho hedroom,
whence ho emorged with confirmation
of his statement.
" 'TIs gone, sor, an "
"All right. Hut," with a rttoful smllo,
"I'll take the llhorty of countermand
ing Mr. Snaith's order. If ho should
call again, O'Hagan, I very much want
to soo lilm."
"Faith, and 'tis mesllf will have a
worrnd or two to whlspor lit tho car
av him, sor," announced O'Hagan,
grimly.
"I'm afraid tho opportunity will ho
lacking. You may fix mo a hot hath
now, O'Hagan, and put out my oven
Ins clothes. I'll dine nt the club to
night and mny not ho buck."
And, rl3lns, Maltland approached a
.tilrror; boforo which ho lingered for
several minutes, cataloguing his In
juries. Taken ultogother, thoy
amounted to little. The swelling of
his wrists and nnklo3 was subsiding
gradually; there wa4 a slight redness
visible In the corners of his mouth,
ainl a shadow of discoloration on his
rlsJit temple something that could bo

concealed hy brushing his hair In a
new way.
"I think I shall do." concluded Malt
land; "there's nothing to exclto partic
ular comment. The bulk of the sore
ness Is Inside."
Seven p. in.
"Time." said the short and thick-sot
man casually, addressing no one In
particular.
Ho shut the lid of his watch with a
snap and returned thn tlmeplcco to
his waistcoat pocket. Simultaneously
he surveyed both sides of tho short
block between Seventh and St. Nich
olas avenues with one comprehensive
glance.
Presumably he saw nothing of inter
est to him. It was not a particularly
Ins resting block, for that matter,
though somewhat typical of the neigh
borhood. Tho north side was lined
with flvo-story tint buildings, their
dingy-rod brick facades regularly
broken by equally dingy brownstone
sloops, its to the ground floor, by open
windows as to those above. Tho so'Ui
sldo was mostly taken up by a tow
ering whito apartment hotel with an
ostontattotis entrance; against ono of
whoso polished stone plllurs tho short
and thick-set man was lounging.
The sidewalks, north and south,
uwanned with children of assorted
ages, playing with tho ferocious en
orgy characteristic of tho young of
Ilt-rlem; their blood-curdling cries and
premature Fourth-of-July fireworks
crouted an appalling din, to which,
hewovor, tho moro maturo donlzons
had apparently become callous, through
long endurance.
Ueyond tho party-colored lights of a
drug store window on Sovonth avenue,
the electric nrcs were casting a sickly
radiance upon the dusty leavos of the
tree-lined drive. Tho avenue itself
was crowded with motor cars and
horse-drawn pleasuro vehicles, mostly
bound uptown, their occupants seeking
the cooler airs and wider spaces to be
found beyond the Harlom rlvor and
nlong the Speedway. A few blocks to
the west Cathedral heights bulked llko
a greut wall, wrappod in purple shad
ows, Its jagged contour sturk against
an evening sky of suavo old rose.
Tbo short and thick-sot body, how
over, seemed to have no particular ap
preciation of the beauties of nuturo as
oxhlblted by West Ono Hundred and
eighteenth streot on a summer's even
ing. If anything, he could apparently
havo desired n cooling breeze; for,
aftor a moment's doubtful considera
tion, ho unbuttoned his waistcoat and
heaved a sigh of rellof.
Then, carefully shifting tho butt of
a dead cigar from ono cornor of- his
mouth to tho other, where It was al
most hidden by tho Jutting thatch of
his black mustache, and drawing down
over his eyes tho brim of a rusty plug
hat, ho thrust fat hands Into the pock
ets of hlu shabby trousers and Iouuged
airaiust tho polished pillar ovon moro
energetically than before, ff that were
possible. An unr.iniantlc. npathetlR
figure, fitting mi naturally Into his sitr-1
foundings us tn dein.tnd no second look
oven from the most nliservant: yet ono
seeming to possess it inugnetlr utti ac
tion for tho eos of the halllmy of the
apartment hotel (who, acquainted by
sight mid hearsay with the stout gen
tloman's Idcnillv and calling, bent
upon lilm a Hio:uirut ami adoring re
gard), as well id inr the policeman
who lorded It on the St. .Nicholas ave
nue corner. In front of the real estate
olllce, and who from time to time
shifted his contiMuphiilon from the In
Unite spaces of the heavens, the bo'lor
to exchange a furtive nod with the
Idler In the hotel doiirwuy.
Presently at no great lapse of time
after the short ami thick-set jiiun had
stowed away his watch out of the
thronged sldewallts of Seventh avenue
a man appeared, walking west on the
north side of the street and reviewing
catelessly the nunilieis on the Illumin
ated fanlights: a tall man, drcscil all
In gray, and swinging a thin walking
stick.
The short, thickset person assumed
a mien of more Intense abstraction
than ever.
The tall man In gray paused Indefi
nitely before the brownstone stoop of
the house numbered 'jo.'i, then swung
up the steps and into the vestibule.
Here he halted. In tiding over to scru
tinize the mime on the letter boxes.
The short, thick set man teluctantly
detuched himself from his polished
p'llar and waddled ungracefully across
the street.
The policeman on the corner seemed
at'ddenly Interested In Sovonth ave
nue, and walked in that direction.
The gray man, having vainly de
ciphered all the names on one side
of the vestibule, straightened up and
turned his attention to the opposite
wall, either unconscious of or Intllf
f''rent to the shullle of feet on the
stoop behind him.
The short, thickset man removed
one hand from a pocket and tapped the
gray man gently on tho shoulder.
"l.ookln' for McCahe. Anlsty?" he
Inquired, genially..
Tho gray man turned slowly, exhib
iting a countenance blank with aston
ishment. "Meg pardon?" he drawled;
and then, with a dawning gleam of
recognition in his eyes: "Why, ynod
evening, Hlckey! What brings yon
ti)i this way?"
The short, thick -sol man permitted
his Jaw to droop and his eyes to pro
trtido for some seconds. "Oh." he
said In a tone of great disgust, "hell!"
He pulled himself together with an
effort. "Kxcuse me, Mr. Maltland," he
stammered, "1 wasn't lookln' for yeh."
"To the contrary. I gather from your
gieetlng you were expecting our
friend, Mr. Anlsty?" And the gray
man smiled.
Hlckey smiled in sympathy, hut with
less evident relish of the situation's
hi'innr.
"That's right," ho admitted. "Got a
tip front the c'mlss'ner's ofllco this
evonlng that Anlsty would be here nt
seven o'clock lookln' for a party
named McCabe. 1 guess It's a bunt tip,
all tight; but of course I got to look
Into It."
"Most assuredly." Tho gray man
bent and Inspected the names again.
"I am hunting tip an old friend," he
explained, carelessly; "a man named
Simmons knew him In college down
on his luck wrote mo yesterday.
There he Is: Fourth floor, east. I'll
see you when I come down, I hope, Mr.
Hlckey."
Tho automatic lock clicked and the
door swung open; the gray man pass
ing through and up the stairs. Hlckey,
ostentatiously Ignoring tho existence
of tho policeman, returned to his post
of observation.
At eight o'clock he was still there,
looking bored.
At 8::i0 he was still there, wearing
a puzzled expression.
At nine ho called the adoring hall
boy, gave him a quarter with minute
Instructions, and saw him disappear
Into tho hallway of No. 205. Three
minutes later tho hoy was back,
breathless hut enthusiastic.
"Missis Simmons," ho explained be
tween gasps, "says she ain't never
heard of nobody named Maltland.
Somebody rang her boll a whllo ugo
an apologized for dlsturhln' hor said
he wanted tho folks on tho top floor.
I guess ycr man went acrost tho roofs;
them houses Is all connected, and yuh
c'n walk clear from tho cornor hero
tub half-way up tub Nineteenth streot,
on Sain' Nicholas avonoo."
"Uh-htih," laconically returned tho
dotectlve. "Thanks'." And turning on
his hcol, walked westward.
Tho policeman crossed tho street
to dotaln him for a momont's chat.
"I guoss It's all off, Jim," Hlckey
told him. "Some ono must vo tipped
that crook oft. Anyway, I ain't goln'
to wait no longor."
"I wouldn't neither," agreed tho uni
formed member. "Say, who's yor
friend yeh was talkln' tub, 'while
ago?"
"Oh, a frlon' of mine. Yell didn't havo
no call to git oxclted then, ,11m.
G'nlght."
And Hlckey proceeded westward, a
listless and prooccuplod man by the
vacnnt eye of him. Dut whon ho
emerged Into tho glare of Eighth nve
nuo his face was unusually rod. Which
may havo been duo to the heat. And
Just before boarding a downtown sur
face car, "Oh," ho enunciated with gus
to, "hell!"
One a. m.
Not until. tho rich and mellow chime
had merged into tho stillness did the
Intruder daro again draw breath. Com
ing as It had the very niomont that
tho door had closed noiselessly behind
her, tho doublo stroke had sounded to
her like a knoll; or, perhaps moro llko
tho prelude to tho wild. alarum of a
totuln, tlrst striking her heart still
with terror, then urging it Into panic
llutteiings. ,
Hul these, its the minutes drew on,
marked only by the dull methodic tick
ing of the clock, quieted; and at
length she mustered courage to tnovo
from the door, against which she had
llatiened herself, one hand clutching
the knob, ready to pull it open iiml lly
upon the llrst aggressive sound.
In the Interval hor eyes had becomo
iii'fiMonied to the darkness. The
study door showed u pale oblong on
her tight; lo her left, and a little to
ward the rear or the Hat, tho door of
Mankind's bed chamber stood ajar.
To tills she tiptoed, standing upon the
threshold and listening wiih every
fiber of her being. No sounds as of
the regular respiration of a sleeper
warning her. she at length peered
stealthily within; simultaneously she
pressed the button of uti electric hand
lamp. Its circumscribed bhtze wavered
over pillows and counterpane spotless
and undisturbed.
Then for the Unit time she breathed
freely, convinced that she hnd been
right in surmising that Maltland
would not return that night.
Since early evening she bad watched
the house from the window of it top.
tleor hall bedroom In the boarding
house opposite. Shortly before seven
idle had seen Maltland. stiff nnd
uncompromising in rigorous even
lag die-is, leave In u cub. Since
then only once had it light nppeared In
his rooms; at about half after nine the
janitor had appeared In the study,
turning up the gas and going to the
telephone. Whatever the nature of
the coinninnleallon received, the girl
liad taken It lo Indicate that Maltlaud
hud decided to spend the night else
where; for the study light had
burned for some' ten minutes, during
which the Janitor could occasionally be
seen moving mysteriously about; and
something later, beating n suitcase,
he had left the house and shullled
rapidly eastward lo Madison avenue.
So she felt convinced that she had
all tho small hours before her, secure
from Interruption. And this time, she,
told herself, she purposed making as-'
surance doubly sure.
lint llrst to guard against discovery
from the street.
Turning hack through the hall, sho
dispensed with the hand-lamp, enter
ing the darkened study. Hero all win
dows had been closed and the outer
shades drawn O'llngan's last act be
fore leaving with the suit-case addi
tional proor that Maltland was not ex
peeled hack that night. For tho tem
perature was high, the air In tho
closed room stilling.
Crossing to the windows, the girl
drew down the dark green Inner
shades and closed the folding wooden
shutters over them. And was con
scious of a deepened sense of security.
Next going to the telephone, she re
moved the recelvor from the hook and
let It hang at the full length of tho
cord. In the dead silence tho small
voice or Central was clearly articu
late: "What number? Hello, what
number?" followed by the grumbling
of tho armature as the oporator tried
fruitlessly to ring the disconnected
boll. The girl smiled faintly, awaro
that there would now be no Interrup
tion from an Inopportune call.
There remained as a final precau
tion only a grand tour of tho flnt;
which she made expeditiously, passing
swiftly and noiselessly (one contem
plating midnight raids does not attire
one's self in silks and starched things)
from room to room, all comfortably
empty. Satisfied at last, she found
herself again in the study, nnd now
boldly, mlud at rest, lighted the brass
student lump with the green shade,
which she discovered on tho desk.
Standing, hands resting lightly on
hips, breath coming quickly, cheeks
flushed .and eyes alight with some In
timate and inscrutable emotion, sho
surveyed the room. Out of the dusk
that lay beyond the plash of Illumina
tion beneath the lamp, tho furniture
began to take on familiar shapes; tho
divans, tho heavy leather-cushioned
easy chairs, tho lull clock with Its pal
lid storing face, tho small tables and
tabourottos, handily disposed for tho
reception of books and mngnzlnes and
pipes and glasses, the towering, old
fashioned mahogany book case, tho
usoless, ornamental, beautiful Chip
pondalo escritoire, In ono corner; all
somberly shadowed and all combining
to diffuse an Impression of qulot, easy
going comfort.
Just such a study as he would natur
ally have. Sho nodded silent approba
tion of It as a whole. And, nodding,
sat. down at tho desk, planting olhows
on Its polished surfaco, Interlacing hor
fingers and cradling hor chin upon

Tho mood held hor but briefly. Sho
