Y., writes: «‘Peruna cured me in five weeks of catarrh of the stomach, after suffering for four years and doctor- ing without effect. In common with other grateful ones who have.been benefited by your discovery, I say. All hail to Peruna.”’ Mr. H. J. Henneman, Oakland, Neb., writes: “I waited before writing to you 5 about my sickness, catarrh of the stom- ach, which I had over a year ago. “There were people who told me it would not stay cured, but I am sure that I am cured, for I do not feel any more ill effects, have a good appetite and am getting fat. So I am, and will say to all, Iam cured for good. “TI thank you for your kindness. «‘Peruna will be our house medicine hereatter.’’ Catarrh of the stomach is also known in common parlance as dyspepsia, gas- tritis and indigestion. No medicine will be of any permanent benefit except it removes the catarrhal condition. Gained Strength and Flesh. Miss Julia Butler, R.

Siac iG A EAB ts CHAPTER X. (Continued.) Yes; but little now remained to be done before absolute perfection of the invention was obtained. A few more experiments, cisive than any that had gone before, still remained to be made. The ap- paratus itself was completed. Its work- ing under certain conditions was cer- tain. It was still necessary, however, to test it by means of continuous ex- periments upon a living human brain. During the last year of their work Gouldesbrough and Wilson Guest had begun to realize this last necessity with increasing conviction. They saw that the copingstone of the marvelous edifice which they had slowly built up through the years was now resolving itself into this, and this alone. Neither had said as much to each other in so many words until some four months ago. Then, upon one memorable night, when excited by drink to an unusual freedom and openness of speech, Guest had voiced the unspoken thought of his master and himself. A human brain, a living human brain, in a living human body was an absolute and final requirement. There were not wanting—there nev- er have been wanting—scientific en- thusiasts who, will submit themselves to experiment. But in this case a vol- untary subject was impossible, for reasons which will presently appear. It became a definite problem with the two men as to how and by what means they should obtain a living creature who should be absolutely subject to their will. And then chance had provided Sir William with the unique opportunity. He had seen his way to rid himself of a hated rival and to provide a subject for experiment at one and the same time. He had not hesitated; brains to far removed from the ordinary sphere of humanity as his never hesitate at anything. Gerald Rathbone had disappeared. The motor stopped at the door in the great, grim wall which surround- ed Sir William's house. He said good night to the chauffeur who looked after his two cars at a garage some half a mile away, and opened the wicket with his key. As he walked through the dark garden and saw the great-square. block of the house looming up before him, it was with a quickening sense of antic- ipation and pleasure. All the worries of his life were momentarily over and done with, he was coming back to his great passion, to his life work, the service of science. It was about 10 o’clock, and as he opened the front door and came into the hall everything was silent and still. He lifted up the padded stick which hung beside the dinner gong and struck the metal, standing still while the deep, booming note echoed mourn: fully through the house. The butler did not answer the sum- mons. Sir William realized that the man must be out. Wilson Guest had probably given the servants an even- ing’s holiday for some purpose of his own. He crossed the dimly-lit hall, pushed open the baize door which led to the study, and entered his own room. The fire was burning brightly, the electric lights glowed, but the place was quite empty. On his writing table was a pile of letters; on a round table set beside the fire were a cold chicken and a bottle of claret. Obviously his first surmise had been right, and the servants were out. He left the study, proceeded onward down the passage, and unlocked anoth- er door—a door through which no one but himself and Guest were allowed to penetrate, a door that was always kept locked, and which led to the lab- oratories. mechanical rooms, and in- vention studios, which had been built out at the back of the house over what were once the tennis lawns, occu- pied a considerable area. Locking the door behind him, Sir William went on down a short passage. The first door on the right had the let- ter “A” painted on it in white. He opened this door and looked in. The room was empty, though it was brilliantly lit. It was a place filled with large tables, on which were draw- ing instruments, sheets of figures and tracings. Guest was not there. Closing the door again and passing onward, Sir William entered the chem- ical laboratory, a long, low place, lit by a skylight in day and by electricity at night. As he opened the door quiet- ly he heard sounds of movement, and then immediately, at the far end of the laboratory, saw the man he was looking for. The place was in entire darkness save at one end, where two incan- descent bulbs glowed above an experi- menting table. The assistant was bending over a Bunsen burner, above which a large glass tube was clamped, in which some liquid was boMing. Suddenly he heard Sir William’s ad- vancing footsteps, and leapt up. For a single moment the great pink, hair- less face was suffused with furtive ter- ror at the sound. It shone out in the light of the lamps clear and distinct, ‘though the lower part of the body was fidden by the darkness. “Alive or Dead?’ The Strange Disappearance of Gerald Rathbone. By GUY THORNE. more delicate. and de- “Here you are, then!” Gouldes- brough said. “The whole house seems deserted.” Guest sighed with relief, and then began to titter in his curious, almost feminine way. “By Jove!” he said, “you startled me, William, I had no idea when you'd be back. My nerves are like lumps of wet velvet. He, he!” His hand shook as he came forward to greet his chief. Sir William knew well that this man was a constant and secret drunkard, but he never made any comment on the fact. Guest was at liberty to do exactly as he pleased to gratify his vices to the full, because Guest, drank or sober, was a complete and brilliant helper, and because Sir William not only could not do with- out him, but knew that the man was his, body and mind, so long as he was allowed to indulge himself as he would. Yet, as the greater man shook hands with the lesser, he was conscious of a sudden thrill of repulsion at the craven fears of the sensualist. “Yes, I’m back,” Gouldesbrough an- swered, “and everything has gone very well. I suppose you have seen that Eustace Charliewood killed himself?” “Yes, I did,” Guest answered, “and for a few hours I was considerably troubled about it. Then I saw by the paper that you were down there, so I knew it must be all, right. He never said anything, of course, or left any- thing behind him?” ¢ “Only a letter to me, which I de- stroyed.” “Good!” Guest answered, and his in- terest in Eustace Charliewood and his end ceased immediately. “Well, I’ve lots to tell you. I’ve gone as far as I could on my own lines, but I’ve been longing for you to come back. My dear William, it’s simply splendid! How right you have been always! How ab- solutely necessary it was to have a liv- ing brain to experiment on!” “How is the man—in good health?” “Well, of course there’s been a con- siderable waste of tissue, and the ab solute lack of exercise has had its ef- fect. But the cell is well ventilated with an electric fan which J keep con- stantly going, and I allow the subject to read two or three hours every day— such books as he may ask for. The rest of the time I turn out the light, after I have fixed on the cap. I finé that the thought images thrown upon the screen in room ‘D’ are more vivid when the subject is kept in darkness, Still, speaking as a whole, the physical | health is good, and it is singular how vivid the thought pictures are, which show that the cerebrum is in a perfect- ly strong and healthy condition. As you know, it is from that part of the brain we get all our voluntary and actual pictures, therefore we are to be congratulated that there is no weak- ness in that regard so far. Still, when you came in, I was just preparing a phosphate solution which I’m going to mix with the subject’s soup, which he will take in an hour or so. Three or four days’ phosphate treatment will in- tensify the vibrations within the mag- netic field of the cap. I was doing this in view of your return, when we shall really begin to experiment seriously.” “Have you had any trouble--physical trouble, I mean—with the subject?” Gouldesbrough asked. “Oh, no,” Guest replied, indifferently. “Of course, he’s as strong as a horse, but the aluminum fetters and the sys- tem of indiarubber cord that you sug- gested have proved all that was neces- sary. I can render him quite helpless directly I get inside the cell and be- fore he could possibly reach me. Then fitting the cap is a simple matter. The head is rigid in the vulcanite depres- sion which encloses the neck, and there is no resistance at all.” “Good!” Gouldesbrough answered. “Curiously enough, I found that design in a strange old book published at the time of the Reformation, detailing some of the methods of the Holy Office in Spain, with appropriate wood cuts.” Guest chuckled horribly. “Of course, as yet,” Gouldesbrough went on,in calm, even tones, “the sub- ject has not the slightest idea what the experiments mean? He doesn’t know why you fit on the receiver? He is quite in the dark?” “Entirely,” Guest answered; “and he is at a loss to imagine what we are doing to him.” “Ah, well,” Gouldesbrough replied, “when we do tell his——” “It will be lovely,” the assistant re- plied, tittering once more. “To watch the pictures that come on the screen when he knows that we are reading his inmost thoughts, when he tries to control them, to alter them, and fails in his agony! When he realizes that he doesn’t belong to himself any more!” The creature rubbed its plump and delicate hands together in an ecstasy of evil enjoyment. “I suppose,” Gouldesbrough said, with some slight hesitation, “you've gathered a good deal of the fellow’s opinions, memories, etc., lately?” “Never had such an amusing time in all my life,” Guest answered, “I've gone down and put on the cap and tied him up, and I've come up and sat alone in front of the screen in room ‘D,’ turn- ed on the generating current, and sat in an arm chair with a bottle of whisky on one side and laughed till I cried! You'll learn a few home truths about i | yourself, William, before long. The curious thing is that whenever your picture comes upon the screen it’s all distorted. looking man, as men go, William, but you should see yourself as this man sees you in his brain.” He laughed once more—malicious and horrible laughter, which echoed high up in the skylight of this: weird and empty place. Gouldesbrough made an impatient movement, “How do you mean?” he said. “Well,” Guest answered, intensely en- joying the situation, “I’ve seen a good many pictures of nasty, ugly-looking fiends and monsters, and I’ve been in the Weirtz museum at Brussels, but no artist who ever painted or drew, and no man who ever modelled in wax, ev- er made such a face as this man’s brain makes of you when he thinks of you.” Gouldesbrough fleuehied grimly. “Poor wretch!” he said, indifferent- ly, “he naturally would. But I’m glad we have got such an excellent brain for experiment. The Pons Varolii must be exceptionally active.” “T should think it was!” Guest an- swered. “You should have seen the pictures that come on the screen when he is thinking of Marjorie Poole!” Gouldesbrough started. “How do you mean?” he said. “Well,” Guest replied. turning off the blue flame of the Bunsen burner and stirring the mixture in the test tube with a glass rod—‘“well, Marjorie Poole’s a pretty girl, but when this man calls her up in his memory she’s a sort of angel. You know what a dif- ficulty we had when we got over the lithium lines in the ash of the muscu: lar tissue of the blood, which had to be translated through the new spectro. scope into actual color upon the screen? Well, we did get over it, but when the subject thinks of Marjdtia Poole the color all fades out of the pic: ture—the actual primary colors, I mean. The girl flashes out into the dark in white light, like a sort of angel! And the first time I saw it I jumped up from my chair, shut off the connecting switch and turned up the lamps. It was 89 unlike any of the other pictures we have ever got, and for a moment I thought I had been overdoing it a little in the whisky line.” Gouldesbrough stopped the strange, inhuman creature in his diabolical amusement, _ “Well, I’m going to bed now,” he said. “We’ll begin work to-morrow. I Saw some supper put out for me in the study.” “Right, oh,” Guest answered. “Good night, then, William. I’m going to take the beef broth and phosphates to our Brain--down below in the cell.” (To Be Continued.) A $240 HAT. Panis Milliners Turning Out Mighty Expensive Confections. For the first time on record during the last twenty years, declares the Paris correspondent of the Gentlewo- man, the milliners have raised their prices. There has been for some time an outcry among hatmakers that they could not obtain the same profits as the dressmakers, although they had the some class of clients. They considered it unreasonable that a woman should pay as much as $1,000 for a dress, and the very high- est price they could obtain for a hat was $60. To-day there is no possibili- ty of complaint on their part, for they are making hats, and selling them, too, at $240. I had seen wonderful structures of aigrettes and marabout at $140, and thought we had reached the limit, but the $240 hat is an extravagance that I do not care to qualify, “Surprising?” say the milliners. “Not at all. People wear real lace upon their dresses, why should they not also have it on their hats?” I was curious to see this sensational hat, and arrived just as it was being packed in its cardboard box, a circle of admiring assistants in ecstasies at its beauty. It was a large capeline in straw with a collar of Venetian point around the crown—the lace aione worth $150—and a small mountain of marabout and aigrettes on one side, Such extravagance is not only wick- ed but unnecessary, for after all, who wears a hat of this price? Not a young woman certainly. Such foolish display can only come from an old wo- man, and she would do well to be more discreet. Adaptable Trio. “I know three women who live in the same flat,” said the bachelor girl. “I wisk you could see the way they manage it. It’s awfully funny. They live as separately as if they were in three flats. They hardly have any- thing to do with each other. For in- stance, each gets her breakfast tray ready the night before. All she has to do is to make her coffee in the morning and boil her eggs. Each has the same daily paper. You'd think they would buy a different one and ex- change, but they don’t. So every morning they go out in the kitchen at different times, get their breakfasts, bring them back to their bed rooms on their little trays, and read their papers all separately. “I don’t believe that three men liv- ing in the same apartment would do that. Do you? I believe they would hobnob together at breakfast and start the day with a little fun.” Always on Her Mind. Dick—You didn’t take the pretty hairdresser out rowing this afternoon?
