ATHLEEN and Julia went to Julia's studio for one of their ice-box suppers. Paul Allison Joined them there. At 9 o'clock, & boy arrived with a message for Cathleen. He had been sent on to the studio by Fritz, Cathleen was to call up the Express at once. “The sling-shot bird has come through,” the editor told hur over the wire. Jubilation was in his voice. “We break the story wide open tomorrow morning. “It's all set now and ready to go."” “The scheme to make him think Neil- sen had told on him worked, then?’ Cathleen said breathlessly “Like & charge of T. N. T. Neflsen's got & tip we're on. Better not stay in that room of yours tonight. Stop with one of your friends. I don't think they 1l try any more dirty work, but you never can tell. Neilsen's desperate.” Cathleen spent the night with Julia. Some time toward morning wakened by & raucous voice outside the windows.

In the morning the Express kept fts promise to the public. It cleared the mystery of the attack on Neil Neilsen in Washington Square Park. It forecast the downfall of the ring of grafters and racketeers that had inaugurated a reign of terror on the West Side. No mention was made of Joe Neilsen. It was simply stated that those higher-up were known and that they would be run down When Cathleen took her letters to be signed into Tom Drew that morning, he was curt. “I want you to take a letter to & | young writer by the name of Kenneth Hall,” he said. Cithleen hid her confusion over her notebook.

W. “17 be fair with you.. “« LIKE the way you put it up to us smohkers to judge your cigarette by abso- lutely real things like mildness and better taste. Sounds like good common sensel” Fair enough! That’s all Chesterfield wants. That’s all Chesterfield could ask for and does ask for—a #al. “Promises fill no sack.”” After all, it’s what you get out of a smoke that counts. And what you get out of Chesterfield, or matter, depends on what anything else for that goes in. Better tbaccos don’t grow than the tobaccos that go into Chesterfield. Ripe. Sweet. Aged and cured for two years under the watchful care of expert chemists. Better cigarette paper can’t be bought. Tasteless. Odorless. Pure! Sanitary factories. Cleanliness in every step of the process. A purer cigarette than Chesterfield can’t be made. And the package! Absolutely moisture-proof. Sealed tight—yet the simplest thing in the world to open. And attractive to look at. They’re milder—they taste better—they’re pure —They Satisfy!
