was one of the policemen who had car-<br />

ried to the ho^pitnl and who<br />

had r«tn lined to get a report on the<br />

disaM. 1 prisoner's condition.<br />

Sam feebly beckoned to the nurse<br />

She came toward him. He muttered<br />

disjointedly:<br />

"I want to— see the chief of police.<br />

Tell him—important. Red Circle!"<br />

He slumped back on the cot again<br />

groggy with headache.<br />

Chief Allen had had a busy morning.<br />

Charles Gordon, the fugitive attorney,<br />

had voluntarily given himself<br />

up to Justice. The chief had at once<br />

sent word to Farwell. who had come<br />

in haste to police h> ado,uarters, to confront<br />

the captive.<br />

Gordon had been searched in Far<br />

well's presence. Hut no trace of the<br />

incriminating receipt could be found<br />

on him. And. perforce, he had be.n<br />

released for lack of evidence to hold<br />

him.<br />

The chief and Farwell were still<br />

sitting in thr» former's office at headquarters<br />

discussing the case when the<br />

telephone buzzed.<br />

"This is queer." remarked Allen as<br />

he put back the receiver on the hook.<br />

' 'Smiling Sam' Kagan was captured<br />

by Lamar today at the Travis house.<br />

Knocked out He was taken to the<br />

hospital And now he sends word he<br />

wants to see me. Sayg it's something<br />

important about the Red Circle case<br />

I'll step over there and—"<br />

Red Circle!" exclaimed Farwell<br />

"That concerns me as much as anyone<br />

in town. I'm going to the hospital I<br />

J with you. if you don't mind."<br />

They found "Smiling Sam" Eagan<br />

propped up among a heap of pillows In :<br />

What did you want to see me<br />

j about"*" asked the chief.<br />

What did I want?" echoed Eagan.<br />

"Oh. nothin' much. Only to tell you<br />

i who the Red Circle woman is. That s<br />

j all."<br />

"If it's a joke—" began Allen.<br />

"A Joke°" Sam caught him up<br />

viciously. "Oh. it's a Joke, all right<br />

And it's on her. On June Travis."<br />

"June Travis!" repeated Allen, incredulous.<br />

"June Travis." cried Farwell. in the<br />

same breath. "I knew it! I was sure<br />

of it. Hut I^mar kept insisting she—"<br />

"June Travis." declared Sam. speaking<br />

slowly, venomously. "June Travis<br />

is the Red Circle woman."<br />

"I don't believe you," said the chief.<br />

"June Travis is the Red Circle wom-<br />

an." doggedly insisted Sam. "Do you<br />

want me to tell you about it or don't<br />

you?"<br />

On ahead." assented Alien, after a<br />

quick glance at the excited Farwell.<br />

"I was hiding out' down at Surfton,"<br />

began Sam. In a cave on the edge of<br />

the beach. She was standing right<br />

near the cave the other day and I saw<br />

the circle on her hand. I—"<br />

"Your eyes fooled you." scoffed the<br />

chief. "In the glare of sunlight the—"<br />

"My eyes didn't fool me," reiterated<br />

Sam. "I saw It, I tell you. The sameshaped<br />

mark that used to be on 'Circle |<br />

Jim' Borden's hand. I'm givin' you -<br />

straight goods. Go and see the circle<br />

on her hand if you don't believe me.<br />

Yes, and as I was watchin' it that day<br />

I heard her nurse say the girl was 'Circle<br />

Jim's* daughter."<br />

The chlet still partly unconvinced,<br />

turned again to Farwell.<br />

"The man's telling the truth!" ejaculated<br />

Farwell. "It all fits in. She's<br />

the Red Circle woman, I tell you. I<br />

knew It all along. I'd have sworn to<br />

It. But Lamar kept putting me off and<br />

putting me off. Chief, I'm going to the*<br />

Travis house I'm going to have a<br />

look at June Travis' hand for myself.<br />

He stamped out of the ward. The<br />

chief reluctantly followed. ,<br />

He paused only to order the waiting<br />

| policeman to remain on guard over<br />

Eagan. Then he hurried on, catching<br />

up with Farwell on the sidewalk in<br />

I front of the hospital.<br />

leaned back on the pillows with a<br />

placid smile. His bright little eyes<br />

Explains Why<br />

Coffee Hurts Many<br />

Dr. W. A. Evans, prominent Chicago physician, who edits the "How<br />

To Keep Well" columns ot the Chicago Tribune, said in that publication,<br />

under date of March 7, 1915:<br />

"Coffee is a drug. Those who are addicted to its<br />

use are drug addicts." "From the standpoint of<br />

nubile hygiene the coffee question is worth while.<br />

It is the most widespread form of drug addiction/ 9<br />

Some coffee drinkers go on for years without seeming harm, but<br />

with others the telltale effects of the drug, caffeine, in coffee, show in<br />

various ills and discomforts, such as headache, biliousness, indigestion,<br />

nervousness, sleeplessness and heart disturbance.<br />

When the health of a coffee-drinker<br />

begins to suffer it's high time to quit the<br />

coffee.<br />

The change to<br />

Instant<br />

Postum<br />

is easy and pleasant. Better health usually<br />

follows, and a ten days' trial proves.<br />

Postum comes in two torms. The original<br />

Postum Cereal—must be well boiled<br />

—15c and 25c packages. Instant Postum—a<br />

soluble powder—is made in the<br />

cup. No boiling required. 30c and 50c<br />

tins.<br />

The two forms of Postum are equally<br />

delicious, and the cost per cup is about<br />

the same.<br />
