New con- tracts for attractions materializing have been building up the 1Fox show each week but for a time the Wednes- day and Thursds show suffered on account of the delay in releasing the new IFox comedies and the impossi- bility of securing carlier opening for the F . nd Bev erly Bayne rial “The Great Secret” on account its not being released as intended. " But the Fox comedies joined the show last week Wednes- day and Thursday the day after the first release, they will not be run anvwhere in the country ahead of the local house. Those who saw the first Fox comedy last week pro- nounced it one of the best comedies they ever saw and others just as funny as promised for the program each Wednesday and Thursday. The Bushman-Bayne serial The Great Secret” which starts Wednesday of this week is claimed to be the class of all_the serials and this claim is evidenced by the fact that it is at this time contracted for by all of the best theaters, many of which have never bhefore shown anything in the serial line. “The Great Secret” opens at Fox's \Wednesday and Thursda; and will continue on the same daj of each week for a run of fifteen weeks.

I was afrald that she might make some search for hidden watchers be. fore beginning her nefarious work, and the thought made me tremble with terror. But evidently Mrs. Cosgrove heen doing some clever work in afternoon, far the first audible words from M Allis’ lips showed that she imagined that the coast was entirely clear. “Have you the things?" she de- manded In a low tone, “the flashlights, the waterproof wrappings for the can- vases and the knives?” “All set,”” the man returned, cally. “Are you safe here?"” “Absolutely,” Mrs, Allis replied. “Where's that artist's wife you thaught was spying on you?" the man persisted. “I told you everything was safe,” she repeated impatiently. ‘“The ar- tist and his wife are shivering in the jail. 1 reported them for violating! the game laws, and they were arrested and taken away this afternoon.” “But are these people boobs enough to leave these pictures unprotected now they know the value af them " “Do you think I'a be fool enough to try this thing tonight if T hadn’t every- had sure everything thing fixed?” Mrs. Allis demanded savagely. “The Cosgroves go on the theory that no one has known about this stuff, and that there’s mighty jittle danger of any one learning about it. They are not even sleeping in the house. .

The supreme moment for which T had been waiting all week seemed to be at hand, and my whole body was thrilling with mingled excitement and terror.

But don'ty you think, first, if I promised for my companion that he will be a very good little boy you might let him lower his arms and seat himself? It must be very fatiguing In that position.” Dicky made her a low bow. *T think we may accord you that privilege,” ha said, hglf-mockingly. “Thank you.” She flashed him a smile as carelessly as iif she were the hostess at some function. “You hear, my friend?” she said, “be seated.” She pushed a chair toward him and the man sank into it.
