Welcome bankers. We ere sure you will like Bismarck. YOUR VACATION Take a vacation, no matter how hard it may be to find time for one, this summer. Change is absolutely necessary to rest the nerve cente And the city person should make it a point to take his vacation in the country, while the farmer and those who spend their lives on farms or in small towns should come to the city and enjoy city life for a short time. This excellent advice comes from Health Commissioner} Mahoney of Boston. Most ‘of us are suffering, in varying degrees, from “nerves,” a malady created by the hustle and rush of civili- zation— and it is increasing in frequency and intensity as we become more “ ed,” whatever that means, We of the citie yed up highly. We work under great nervous pressure, speeded up to the last ounce of! energy. And we get the clock wound so tightly that we ‘re- main keyed up when away from work. We rush about the streets as if going to a fire. We gulp our meals. We sit down at home after dinner and immediately become restless — begin drumming our fingers, wanting to “start something.” Maybe we go to a theater or movie. Impatient to get past, the'people in line ahead of us. So restless that we can’t ke: our seats until the final curtain drops or the picture end That’s why musical shows come to an abrupt ending. They | have to. No one would be left in the house if the show ended peacefully and artistically. | All this is “nerves.” Its imprint is on our strained faces, ; in our keyed-up walking or auto driving, in our general im- | patience. When a person has a nervous breakdown, the first thing | the: physician recommends is “a change.” The best kind of | a change is a complete one. So Mahoney is right. “The city mak should vacation in the country. The farmer and small- | town resident should vacation in the city. Contrast is a nerve restorative. It is informative, broad- ens our vision, restores our balance, gives us the proper per- spective. What does you most good on a vacation is the “change,” rather than the air or rest or recreation. And, the more complete the change, the more recuperative. The brain worker, for, the same reason, will do best by spending his holidays where he’ll have physical labor to do — | preferably camping chores. And the man who works with! his muscles can get the greatest vacational benefits by giving his.muscles a rest and exercising his brain, reading, thinking. A good rule, is Mahoney’s, and it can be applied in every- day life as well as during vacations. By complete “change” | —doing the opposite to your routine—you can get at least an} hour’s vacation every day. i i EDISON "Thomas A, Edison’s youngest son, Theodore, graduates from Boston “Tech.” He doesn’t care for radio, Mind runs to mathematics. and applied sciences.

[It's all very terrible indeed and I'm damned if I understand anything about it. But one fact is clear: my brother wrote this letter and he wrote it from Plymouth; and since he ‘hasn’t been reported* from Ply- mouth, I feel very little doubt the thing he wanted to happen has hap- pened.” Then he turned to his niece. “We'll have a cup of tea in half an hour, Jenny. Meantime I’li take Mr. Brendon up to the tower room along with ime.” Mrs. Pendean the house and with the sailor. They passed through a square hall disappeared into Mark followed her full of various foreign curiosities collected by the owner. Then they ascended into a large, octagonal chamber, like the lantern of a light- house, which surmounted the dwell- ing. “My lookout,” explained Mr. Red- mayne. “In foul weather I spend all my time up here and with yon- der strong, three-inch telescope I can pick up what's doing at sea. A bunk in the corner, you see. I often sleep up here, too.” “You might almost as well afloat,” said Brendon, and the mark pleased Bendigo. “That's how I feel; and I can tell you there's a bit of movement, too, sometimes. I never wish to see big- fer water than beat these cliffs dur- ing the south-easter last March. We shook to our keel, I can tell you.” He went to a tall cupboard in a corner, unlocked it and§brought out a square, wooden desk of old-fash- ioned pattern. This he opened and produced a letter which he handed to the detective. Brendon sat down in a chair un- der the open window and read this communication slowly. The writing |was large and’ sprawling; it sloped slightly upward from left to right! across tHe sheet and left a triangle be re- of white paper at the right-hand bottom corner: “Dear Ben: It's all over. I’ve dope*in Michael Pendean and” put him where only Judgment Day will find him. Something drove me to do it; but all the same I’m sorry now it’s done—not for him but myself.

Bendigo nodded. “I reckoned you'd want that,” he answered and produced a second let- ter from his deck. It related to Robert Redmayne’s engagement to be married and the writing was identical. “And what do you think he’s done, Mr. Redmayne?” Brendon asked, pocketing the two communications. “I think he’s done what he hoped to do, At this time of year you'll ea dozen Spanish and Brittany onion boats lying down by the Bar- bican at Plymouth, every day of the | present condition must be “Noisy and full of chatter, but much as usual.” “Did he mention Mr. and = Mrs. Pendean ?” “Not a word.

They meant to be married in late autumn and go, abroad for u run to see my brother | Albert.” : “He may correspond with Mf&s Reed if he gets to France?” “I can't say what he'll do. Sup- pose you catch him presently?) How would the law stand? A man goes mad and commits a murder. Then you-nab him and he’s as sane as « judge. You can’t hang him for what he did when he was off his head, and you can’t shut him up in a lun. ic asylum. if he's sane.” ‘A nice problem, no doubt,” ad- mitted» Brendon, “but be sure the law will take no risks. A homicidal maniac, no matter how sane he is between times, sis not going to run loose any more after killing a man. “Well, that’s all there is to it, tective. If I hear again, I'll let the police know; and if you take him, o€ course you'll let me and his brother know at once. It’s a very ugly thing for his family. He did good work in the war and got honors; and if he’s mad, then the war made his mad.” “That would be taken very fully into account, be sure. I’m sorry, both for him and for you, Mr. Red mayne.” i f Bendigo looked sulkily from under his tangled eyebrows. “I shouldn’t feel no very great call to give him up to the living death of an asylum if he hove in here some night.” “You'd do your duty—that I will bet,” replied Brendon. They descended to the dining- room, where Jenny Pendean w: waiting to pour out tea. All were very silent and Mark had leisure to observe the young widow. “What shall you do and where may I count upon finding you if I want you, Mrs, Pendean?” he asked | presently. Y She looked at Redmayne, not at Brendon, as she answered. “I am in Uncle Bendigo's hands. 1 know he will let me stop here for the present.” “For keeps,” the old sailor de- clared. “This is your home now, Jenny, and I’m very glad to have you here. There's only you and your Uncle Albert, and me now, I reckon, for I don’t think we shall ever see poor Bob again.” An elderly woman came in... “Doria be wishful to know whgp you'll want the boat,” she said. “I should like it immediateiy if possible,” begged Brendon. “Much time has been lost.” i “Tell them to get aboard then.” directed Bendigo, and in five min- utes Mark was taking his leave. “I'll let you have the earliest in- timation of the capture, Mr. Red- mayne,” he said. “If your poor brother still lives, it seems imp : ble that he should long be free. HA: one ‘of great torment and anxiety—to him— and for his own sake I hope he will soot suryender or be found—if not in England, then in France.” “Thank you,” answered. the older man quietly. “What you say is true. I regret the delay myself now. If he is heard of again by me, pI’ll telegraph to Scotland Yard, or get ’cm to do so at Dartmouth. I've slung a telephone wire into the town as you see.” They stood again under the flag- \. staff on the plateau, and Brendon ~ studied the rugged cliff line and week. And if poor Bob got there, no doubt plenty of chaps would hide him when ‘he offered ’em moncy enough to make it ‘worth while, Once aboard one of those sloops, he'd be about as safe as he wauld be anywhere. They'd land him’ at St. Malo, or somewhere down there, and he'd give you the slip.” “And, until it was found out that he was mad, we might hear no more about him.” “Why should it be found that he was mad?” asked Bendigo. “He was mad when he killed this inno- cent man, no doubt, because none but. a lunatic would have done such an awful thing, or been 80 cunning after—with the sort of childish cun- ning that gave him away from the start. But once he’d done! what this twist in his brain drove him to do, then I judge that his madness very likely left him.

The district was ery lonely and only the rooftree of a solitary farmhouse appeared a mile or mbre distant to the west. “If he should come to you—and I have still a fancy that he may do so—take him in and let us know,” said Brendon. “Such a necessity will be unspeakably painful, I fear, but I am very sure you will not shrink from it, Mr. Redmayne.” The rough old man had grown more amiable during the detective’s visit. It was/clear that a natural aversion for Brendon’s business no longer extended to the detective himself. “Duty’s duty,” he said, “though God keep me from yours. If I can do anything, you may trust me to do it. He’s not likely to come here, I think; but he might try and it over to Albert down. south.
