CIGARETTE PAPERS V DOUBLE AUTOMATIC BOOKLET The Flying: Courier b y Boyd Cable BYMOPSIS Glynn Elllman, pilot of Jmperlul Air- way, ts travelling by Air Mall to India, carrying two copies of a talking fllm •f the Prince of Napalta who Is too ill to travel himself. Tlir- talliing films are sent as a last resort to foil his buir-hrother In India, to usurp this throne. On the same Mall liner travels Norah Seaman who becomes Interested In Olynn. Scleral attempts are made by the Vulture's envoys and one fllm Is stolen. Glynn has the other fllm secured round bis unlHt by a eteel chain. At Karachi, Glynn Is met by a sup- posed envoy of the Prince, who re- quests him to accompany him to a theatre. Jlmmv Doyle and Noriih Sea- man go with Glynn. They are followed. The Prince's envoys In the mcantlnme bavc become alarmed at the non-ap- pearance of Glynn and Inslltute a â- earrh. Glynn accepts R drink In the theatre restaurant, which has a stronK •leeplng draught. CHAPTER XVIIl Cont'd, Olynn wont on to tell how the Sub- ard,ir had prespiited himself on arrl- Tal at the aeroiirome, how he had ohaiiRpd the hotel, advised dining elsewhere and all the rest. A good many nuestions and answers followed and these covered all the intjor Inci- dents of different attemptB at rob- berj-, such facts an Glynn could give about other passengers by the Air Mall, the wireless messages received, and other matters. Glynn did not see the drift or the meaning of some of tlie f|ue?tions but he answered them all fairly and honestly. But the in- terpretation the Chief put on some of his answers staggered him. The last questions were about Norah Seaman, how long he had known her and how he had Irst got to do so, and all this Glynn told straightfor- wardly "You have known or suspected for acme time that there were some con- cerned in these attempts travelling with you?" a.sked the Chief. "The men Stefan and Max and Dasa for ex- ample. Did it ever occur to yon that there might be another â€" Miss Sea- man?" Glynn sat and gaped at him In blank amazement for a moment, and then began to laugh, "Wait" said the Chief. "Here are •omo of the facts I have gathered from you. You know nothing of Miss Seaman except that she offered you the opportunity of making your acquaintance at the Croydon 'drome the day you were warned to aland by for special duty." "Yes, but â€" " Glynn would have in- terrupted, but the Chief continued â€" "It has been suspected for a time that there was a leakage of Informa- tion from the Prince's household. How or by whom information was gained and passed on is not known, but It has been. The provision of that duplicate attache-case proves it. It may easily have been known you were seleected to pilot the Prince's plane, and later to carry the film. There wa.s, therefore, an object in making early, and friendly contact with you. Miss Seaman did so." "You are stretching possibilities be- yond reason," said Glynn contemptu- ously. "Let us see " answered the Chief, and went on to mention in sequence other facts Glynn had revealed in the apparently disconnncted questions. His leaving by the Air Mall had been kept secret, but by another coin- cidence Norah was travelling by It, she was walking and talk'ng with Max approaching the liner af Croy- don; and from the first she was evi. dently interested in the politics of Napal.ita and asked a good many questions about them. He had been out with Norah at Athens in the evening leaving the coast clear for the bolt of his rooms to be tampered with. She had been close to him on the journey to Galilee, gettin? off and on the flying boat at the lunching place, during luncn, and again going a.xhore in the launch at Galilee â€" and his bag had been stolen and the other substituted at some unknown point on that section of the journey. â- 'Now we come to further attempts when It was apparently known you carried another copy" the Chief went on. Norah had noticed his carrying binoculars in his pocket with a case for them on his shoulder and she had remarked laughingly on this, in the hearing of the Indian, Dass. "But she didn't even know. I had not told her I had anythin?; In the case," protested Glynn. "She may have guessed, or even had a glimpse you were unaware of," was the answer. "Anyhow, it was unfor- tunate â€" er â€" cr â€" accident she made such a leading remark In the hear- ing of Dass. And the next thing is that street row in Bagdad nearly re- sulting in the case being cut off you." Glynn was utterly bewildered. Not for one moment would he believe Nor.tn implicated and working with his enemies â€" but he cr.uld see how the faots would lm;)rpFs an outsider â€" especially as more and more of th-.m mounted up. Only she had seen tiie -wireless messages from the Prince's secretary and so could have sent a cable to London telling how the messages were signed and enablng a fake mess- age to be sent simllary signed about the messenger with the password. She had every opportunity, too, in t^eir close companionship of seeing the bulge of the casfv on his hip later. He had given her the key to carry, and he had heard th* men In the gardens say they had a key from the same shop as the lock came. She could have handed them that key â€" "But she didn't" Olynn broke In. "She has It still. 1 asked her after leav- ing the gardens " "There was time to hana It back In tile darkness after the attempt failed" A PAGE FROM MY DIARY hy P.C.2 I am a fair-minded guy, I reckon, to spite of what people sometimes say about speed-copi.

"Or she might have { lent It long enough for a duplicate to be made. If your friend L)o>lu had not had the quick wits to shout and direct my uflicer with his torch to him the key would have unlocked the case in another uioment and you woull have been lobbed." "Not so easily " answered Glynn. "The key ddn't work because flie lock is packed bung full of glue. I'll need a blacksmth aild a good many minutes to let nie hand my case cvei at Napalata." "nil Miss Seaman know you had taken that extra precaution^" asked the Chief, and when Glynn "aid "No," he adued: "Which explains why she would still suppose the key would work." Olynn could only protest but this he did vigorously enough, artioiigh he could cot but admit that if the girl had ujt been Norah Seaman he could hardly have denied or refused to see ihe strength of the cvldenc3 piled up igalns' her. "You are asking me to boileve she 's a cheat and a thief and In league to rob or perhaps kill me. I don't and I won't believe It," he said dog- gedly. "We must leave It at that for the moment then." said the Chief triskly. "And now I'll ask you to v/alt In an- other joom for a little while I have a talk with Miss Seaman." Glynr would have stayed for all this her interview, but tbo Chief was firm and finally silenced Glynn's ohjec'lons by pointing out that if Norah were as inmcent as he fceliev- ed he could have no objection to her being allowed to prove It, and she would have ample opportunity to do. Glyipi waited for long and tortur- ing minutes until he was cti'Ied In again to find Norah sitting very erect In hor chair, looking puzzled, jrorried and angry. She jumped up at the sight ot him. "Glynr. I'm told you know all they suspe.;t and why. There \a only one question In all this nonsense that con- cerns me. Do you suspect nic?

Norah will you marry me?" n CHAPTER XIX In the meantlm*- two telephone messj'T'Ps had r;nched Napalata â€" one that raised rejoicings in the pj'.lace ot the Prince, and another that b! ought an outburst of raving and reviling In the household ot the Vuliure. Both messases were to the sa.me effect, that an attempted robbery of the Prince's Courier ha<i been foiled at the la.=t moment that he wns safe, and had lost nothing. The Prince's Vizier and Secretary sent out word that the Prln-io's Proc- lamation film would be shown to the priests and n» many as porslble of the people without fail ne,jt evening, and spies in the palace quickly brought w.ord to The Vulture. The news roused a fre^li storm. "Fools, dolts, incompetent bijnglers," he raved at his trembling underling, Abdul All, who served him In any capacity from confidential cdviser, head of his "Secret Service" of spies and personal agent, to lickspittle toady, and whippingpost when The Vulture had a spleen to vent. "To think those idiots had ♦hel'- very hands on the package, and failed to secure It " The Vulture ranted on. "See tnat they are brought here to me. I'll make them answer for It. I shall â€" I shall..." and he described a few ot the thing.s he would have done to the bunglers. "There may yet be time to retrieve the mistalie," put In the Adviser humbly, when he could get a word In edgeways "Where â€" when"'" demanded The Vulture bitterly "He will leave by tho triln tonight, and be here to- morrow." "It had already been arrai;ged," said Abdul All, "that If the Courier could ..ot be reaclyed and the package secured in Karachi, four of jour best men should take the train ^\)th him from 'here and seek their opportun- ity. The journey takes the best part of a day and night, and In that time the four can hardly fall." The Vulture sat btck on his cush- ions, scowling and gnawing at his nails. Gradually the scowl lightened and a cruel, crafty smile twilcbed his lips. "Hardly fail!" he repeated bitterly. "Each new attempt could hardly fall, and yet has failed. But I ha#e trust- ed too much to the wits it witless ones. Nov I shall direct, and they shall act." "So then assuredly all wlii be well," cried the sycophant fervently. "It was such direction of a roaster roliifi that was lacking, and now â€" " "Peace, gabbler," snarled Tho Vul- ture. "Have you any man who knows the wirkiug of the railway r.nd can be tru.^ted?" "Su?h a man 1= here under my hand, ' said Abdul Ali eagerly, ' He Is to be trusted because his life is for- feit to the law It he were given tc it." The Vulture smiled again. "It Is well. Send tho man to me, aiid also bring me wliut maps you oa-'i of the railway lli.e." But when Abdui Ali brir.ght the man and the maps, h»> was gent about some tther biislnefs and only learned what the new plan was to bt after the railway man had gone to set about his work.

For Future by Scientists Berkely, Calif.â€" Airplenes having neither wings nor screw propellors were pictured recently to the Ameri- can Association, Society of mechanic- al engineers, as the possible aerial craft of tomorrow, by P, K. KIrksten, professoi of aeronautical Buglneering at the University ot Washington. This prospect, the aerona-itlcal sec- tion of the American Association for the Advancement of Science was told. Is supported by principles of air me- chanics developed in Germany, France and the United States, and Is of prov- en practical value. Professor KIrksten outlined the es- sential feature of this new type air- craft as resembling nothing so much as the time-tested ferry boat propelled with paddle wheels. Air instead of water would constitute its ocean. Dealing with the characteristics of cycloidai aircraft and their perform- ance and stability in flight. Professor KIrksten reached the conclusion: â-  Idling cycloidai propellors should be superior to fixed wings in standard gliders of airplane form. Cycloidai aircraft offer advantages for military duty in that there are no wings to obstruct the view or to interfere with machine guns. The cycloidai propel- lor has the Important advantage of being noiseless. "There seems to be no reason why this type cannot excell the airplane In any manoeuvre now performed." Unless technical Improvements of presnt day aircraft are simplified it will soon be necessary for a pilot to gain a doctor of philosophy degree In engineering before be will be able to fly a plane, E.

Their juice may be kept ludeflnitely by boil- ing It down with sugar to half Its bulk and then botllings. but the fine flavor of the 'rest, fruit Is lost. In days gon».> by fresh lemon juice or some preparation of citric acid that preserved all \Xs virtues for a long time was an absolute necessity for long sea voyages. Different methods were tried for this purpoce, some of which are worti experimenting on today. In an old oook dated 1807 the following Is found: To keep lemon juicf buy the fruit when cheap. Keep it In a cool place two or three days. II too unripe to squeeze readily roil each lemon under your hand to make them part with the juice more easll}. Squeeze the juice into a china baslu, then strain it at once through some muslin which will not perml: the least pulp to pass. Have ready some perfectly dry, very small bottles, ail tbem at once with the juice so near the top as only to admit ^ or 1 tixispoonful of sweet oil into each (according to the size of the bottles. Oork the bottles and set them upright in a cooi place. Ready For Use. The reason you must have small bottles is because, when once opened the lemon juice must be used the same day. When you want to use it, open Vt^o bottle, wind some clean cot- ton round a skewei end dipping It in the oil will be a'.tracted, and when all Is removed the juice will be as flue as when first bottled. Care must be taken to squeeze only sound fruit. With a little trouble th«; entire le- mon may bo preserver! for the longest cruise In alr-tighi casks as follows: Take some ri le -ami make It very dry. Let it get ceid, put a quantity of it Into the bottom of a dry cask or other clean ve3£6l; then take the lemons and put a layer of them In, stalk downwards so that they do not touch each other, and strew in more sand, as much af will cover them two Inches deep. Thee &et the vessel in a cold place, and the fruit will be in high preservation at the end of several months. Dranges may be preserved in "-.he sani* manner. Bottled WithX)L't Sugar. Fruit juice may be bottled .n fruit bottling jars without sugar. Squeeze the juice and strain through muslin Into glass bo'tJiug jars or fireproof bottles, put in the cork or cover light- ly, put into cold water, bring it gra- dually to boiling, let It boll for fif- teen minutes; press the corks in tight- ly, lift out the bottles and keep them in a cool, dark place till required. The great point in preserving lemon juice is not to let it stand at all, because It it does a fermenta- tion begins which very materially alters the acidity ot the juice's anti- scorbutic qualities.

Becq de Pouqu. leres, is the "Chief of the Protocol" and regulates the deportment of pre- sidents, ambassadors, ministers ajid even kings on occasions bringing them here, Andre sets the style for unof- ficial folk when it comes to fashion and social custom.

To be well-dressed gives confidence to oneself and to others; It cheers and beautifies the atmosphere and clari- fies the sky. We trust defend Paris against the bad taste and pretentious ugllnesE of the hooligans who go about hatless, either to save money, or to avoid saluting women whom they encounter. We must protect Paris against such vulgar ensembles as gray trousers, a green vest, a red muffler, a brown coat, a black and orange checker suit." The dinner jacket, he coticludes, "is a masterpiece of vulgar'ty and ugliness when worn at a fa-tblonable soiree."

Urges Nudism For Children Vast Aid in Education Hills- dale Professor Contends Iowa City, la. â€" Nudism naa an educational value for the young and growing child, Dr. David M. Trout, professor of psychology at Hili.'sdale College, Hillsdale, Mich., asserted in a prepared address delivered before the Iowa conference on child de- velopment. Children should have the oppor- tunity to see persons nude until they learn fully the anatomical differ- ences," Dr. Trout said. He further declared that it is un- wise to require a child to say prayers or to force any concept of God upon him. He pointed out that children under six years of age were unable to con- ceive of God as a reality, and that if ideas were forced upon them they were most likely to become confused. "If a child asks his mother, 'What becomes of us when we dieT the an- swer should be, 'We are just dead mother should explain that it is 'just like when you are asleep.' " Dr. Trout advised parents to en- courage the "lies" told by small chil- dren. "Before the fifth year," he said, "the child is unable to imagine time or distance accurately, and for that reason the tales he tells are not lies but the products of an awkward im- agination. Parents should treat this story telling as a game, and help the child play it."
