The army is doing better than that. | It will feed each of the 30,000 young men who attend the Citizens’ Military Training Camps this summer at a cost of 79 cents a day for three mea The quartermaster general says regular army chuck at 45 cents a day apiece. But an addi- tional 25 cents has been provided, to furnish fancy eats, such as the 30,000 may happen to be accustomed to in civilian lif Each man daily will get, in addition to the regulation menu, a pint of fresh milk or buttermilk, a salad for dinner, and cereal and fresh fruit for breakfast. These four items alone would cost 70 cents or more in the average restaurant. he could give them the To the person who eats in restaurants or does the marKet- basket shopping for a family, the low cost of feeding the army is the eighth wonder of the world. And yet it’s a marvel only by contrast. In the fi place, the army gets the advantage of co- operative buying—big orders, at wholesale prices. The mid- dlemen are, to considerable extent, eliminated. Then, comparing with restaurant prices and management : The restaurant has high overhead which the army in most cases avoids—high rents, insurance, semi-compulsory chari- table donations, kitchen waste which in the army would punished, higher-priced “help,” cost of soliciting busine more fragile equipment, and probably the expenses of o the: or other alluring entertainment . The restaurant man will point out that one of the most vital of these items is that the army’s “70 cents a day per ’ doesn’t include any labor charges. : The solution of certain phases of the high cost of living may be in army organization. For instance, if 25 or 50 families in a neighborhood standardized their meals and clubbed together to buy their supplies co-operatively, they could get wholesale prices, or nearly so, Some visionaries have even predicted a day when cooking will be a community job. Meals would be prepared at a cer- tain number of branch stations and carried home by the housewives or delivered to them in thermos boxes. Enough variety, of course, to permit a wide selection. The bakery idea, expanded and socialized. These municipal kitchens may be visionary. But the idea of co-operative buying is practicable. When such ventures fail, it is usually due to defective organization and peanut politics. BULL-HEADED A small steamship from Bergen, Norway, goes through the Welland Canal and up the Great Lakes. In the bay at Superior, Wis., the ship grounds on a sand bar. Four hours later a tug comes alongside and inquires what’s wrong. The Norwegian captain says he’s waiting for flood tide to float his ship off the bar. Being told there’s no tide in the Great Lakes, he refuses aid and announces determinedly that there must be a tide and that he'll wait until it shows up. In politics often, and in our personal affairs frequently, most of us have about the same attitude. That’s why we remain on the sand bars. CAPABLES? State motor vehicle officials, convening in Chicago, have been laying plans to make every auto driver in 13 middle western states prove his fitness to operate a car before be- ing granted a 1924 driving license. Eventually this will be the general rule in all states. It'll have to be, to curb the rapidly mounting auto accident toll. A considerable fraction of motorists (about the same per- centage as of pedestrians) have defective vision, slow and inaccurate judgment and a scarciety of common sense. Bet- ter to begin regulating them rigidly before they take to the more dangerous vehicle, flying flivvers. “COME!” William Ushness decided to make his last will and testa- ment. While he was writing, his heart stopped beating. Death came before he could get his bequests on paper. This happened in Mineola, N. Y. It’s an odd case, Many will see, in it, the long arm of coincidence or chance. Others will claim that he had a pre- monition, and that it proves psychic communication with the Beyond. The wise will profit by his experience and make, without delay, their wills. You should make a will ,though your estate be only $10; Ponder the situations arising from sudden and unexpected death.

TUESDAY, JULY 10, 1923 Wo EDEN PHILPOTTS Res BEGIN HERE TODAY When Jenny Pendean's’ husband, Michael, disappears, hee uncle, Ro- bert Redmayne, is’ suspected of murder. Mark Brendon is in charge of the case. Robett’ temains at large. : ! Benny goes to live with her uncle, Bendigo Redmayne. Robert visits , the neighborhood of Bendigo's home and sends word for ‘his brother to meet him in a nearby. cave. Giu- seppe Doria, who works for Bendi- £0, ledves his master at the meeting place. When Voriy calls to bring ; Bendigo home he finds both men jhave disappeared. There is evi- dence of a struggle in the empty cave. Jenny marries Doria and goes to live in Italy, where her uncle, Albert Redmayne, lives. When Robert ap- pears in Italy, Brendon and Albert's friend, Peter ‘Ganns, American de- tective, renew investigations. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY “He told the unfortunate man that he must appear by day. Ernesto then mentioned a certain place, a mile from here in a secluded valley —a little bridge that sfans a strdam —and directed Robert to await his brother at that spot on the follow- ing day at noon. This my Uncle Alberto had already planned in the event of his brother reappearing. “Having heard this, the red man departed without more words and your friend,» greatly courageous kept the appointment that he bad made, taking only me with him. We were there before midday and wait- ed until after two o'clock. But no- body came to us and we saw neith- er man nor woman.” Peter listened intently to words. “And what of your meeting with him?” he asked. “That was clearly an accident on Robert Redmayne’s paft. I happen- ed to be walking, deep in thought car the spot where my wife first saw him, and, rounding a corner, I suddenly confronted the man sit- ting on a rock by the path. He tarted at my footfall, looked up, clearly recognized me, hesitated, and then leaped into the bushes.” “low was he dressed?” “Exactly as I saw him dressed at ‘Crow's Nest’ where Mr. Bendigo Redmayne disappeared.” “I should like to know his tailor,” said Mr. ns. “That’s a useful suit he wears. “Now, Peter, tell “as all that is in your mind,” urged Mr. Redmayne as he poured out five little glasses of golden liqueur. “You hold that I go in some peril from this unhappy man?” “I do think so, Albert, ‘And as to my mind, it is not by any ‘means’ made up.” Ganns spoke again, “There has been mention made of Mr. Bendigo's log. He kept a careful diary—so it was reported. I should like to have that book, Albert, for in your state- ment you tell me that you preserved these I did and it is here,” replied his friend. “That and dear Bendigo's ‘Bible’, as I call it—a copy of ‘Moby Die brought away. As have not consulted the diary—it was “The parcel containing both books is in a drawer in the library. Til get them,” said Jenny.- She left the apartment where they sat overlook- ing the lake and returned immedi- ately with a parcel wrapped in brown paper. But whether Bendigo’s diary might have proved valuable remained a matter of doubt, for when Jenny opened the parcel, it was not there. A blank book and the famous novel were all the parcel contained. “But I packed it myself,” said Mr. Redmayne. “The diary was bound exactly as this blank volume is bound, yet, it is certain that I made no mistake, for I opened my broth- er’s log and read a page or two be- fore completing the parcel.” “He had bought a new diary only the last time he was in Dartmouth,” said Doria. “I. remember the inci- dent. I asked ‘him what he was going to put into the book, and pe said that his log was just running out and he needed a new volume.” “Then the one has been substi- tuted for the other by ~ somebody else. That is a very interesting fact, if true.” a He took up the empty volume and turfied its pages; then Brendon de- clared they’ must be going. “I'm afraid we're — keeping. Mr. Redmayne out of bed, Ganns,” he hinted. “Our kits have already been sent to the hotel and as we've got a mile’ to walk, we'd better be moving.” oe But Peter, spoke and surprised them, i ‘ “I'm afraid you're going to find me the sort: of friend that sticketh closer than a brother, Albert. In a word, somebody must gq to the ho- tel and bring back my traveling grip, for I'm not going to lose sight of you again till we've got this thing straightened ouf.” Mr. Redmayne was delighted. ) “How like you, Peter—how typical of your attitude!’ You shal not leave: me, dear friend,” You shall sleep in the ‘Apattment next my own.

I suggest that ~Signor Doria should take Brendon to the ‘scene in the hills where Robert Reg mayne appeared; while, by her leav& have a talk with Mrs. Jenny here.” CHAPTER XIII The Sudden Return to England Peter Ganns sat, next day and spoke to Albert Redmayne oh a little gallery that extended from the dining room of the villa ang overhung the lake. Here, for half an hour, he talked and listened un- til Jenny should be ready for him. They set the world right together and their thoughts drifted into a region of benignant aspirations. Then came Jenny and presently the detective followed her into a garden of flowers behind Villa Pianezzo. “Giuseppe and Mr. Brendon have gone to the hills,” she said. “And now I am ready to talk to you, Mr. _ Ganns.” He looked at her beautiful intently. how me the silkworms,” he sai They entered the lofty shed tbove a thicket behind the vi shuttered apartment where twilight reigned. “Never mummy was wound so. ex- itely as the silkworm's chrys- said Peter; and Jenny chat- ted cheerfully about the silken in- dustry its varied interests, but found that Mr. Ganns could tell her much more than she was able to tell him. He listened with attention, how- ever, and only by gradual stages de- flected conversation to the affairs that had brought him. Presently hg todicated an aspect of her own pow tio’ face id it ever strike you that it was a bold thing to marry within little more than nine months of your first husband's disappearance, Mrs. Doria?” he asked. “It did not; but I shivered when T heard you talking yesterday. And call me ‘Jenny,’ not ‘Mrs. Doriaé Mr. Ganns.” “Love has always been very im- patient of law,” he declared; “but the fact is that unless proof of an exceptional character can be sub- mitted, the English law is not pre- pared to say of any man that he is dead until seven years have passed from the last record of him among the living. Now there is rather a serious difference between seven years and nine months, Jenny.” She looked at him with a face full of unhappiness. a “I can trust you. You are "wi and know life. I have not married man, but a devil!” He took snuff and listened, while the unfortunate woman raved of her error. Peter studied her very carefully, yet, for the moment, showed no great sympathy. “You are thinking of something,” she said. “Naturally. What you have told me as to your relations with your Italian husband offers considerable food for thought. Does Giuseppe know ‘that you no longer love him?” “I have hid it. The time has not come to let him know that. He would be revenged, and God knows what form his revenge might take. ‘Till I have escaped from him, he must not dream that I have changed.” They parted presently and Jenny returned to the house, while the de- tective, finding a comfortable chair under an oleander bush, sniffed the fragrance of the red blossom above, him, regretted that his vice haf largely spoiled his sense of smfll, took snuff and opened his notebook. He wrote in it steadily for half an hour, then he rose and joined Albert Redmayne. _ The elder was full of an approach- ing event. “To think that today you Poggi meet!” he explained. “Peter, my dear man, if you do not love Vir- gilio I shall be broken-hearted.” “Albert,” answered Mr. have already loved Poggi for two years. Those you love, I love; and that means that our friendship is on a very high plane indeed; for it often happens that nothing puzzles us more infernally than our friends’ friends. By the same token, how much do ‘you love your niece?” Mr. Redmayne did not. answer in- stantly. ; “I love her,” he replied at length, “because I love everything that is lovely; and without prejudice I do honestly believe she is about the loveliest young woman I have ever seen. Her face more nearly re- sembles that of Botticelli’s Venus than any living being in my experi- ence; and it is the sweetest face I know. Therefore I love her outside very much indeed, Peter. “But when it comes to her inside, I feel not so sure. That is natural, for this reason, that I do not know her at all well yet. I have seldom seen her in childhood, or had any real acquaintance with her . until now. Nor does she come to me, as’ it were, alone.
