It is a trick of hers T know well—one she always employs when she is asked to relate anything about her own doings. It is only Wwhen Lillian completely forgets her- self in a narration, as she had done in describing the wounded officer's dramatic arrival at the hospital, that she inadvertently allows one to catch a glimpse of the initiative and the resourcefulness which is always hers in any emergency. “There’s nothing she said.

I recalled again Ernest's declar- ation that he haa sent word of my bresence at the inn to a man who was ‘“‘exceedingly anxious to se¢ me,” who “had a score to settle with me.” “Did yvou see him at all?” demanded anxiously. “Was he the man responsible for that shot? I haven't heard any report as yet from our man who was shadowing him, so I don’'t know whether he has man- aged to elude us or not.” “I don’t think he was at the inn at all, at least I didn't see him,” I re- plied. ‘“And the shot which ‘put me out of commission’——as Dicky would say—was fired by the man who was killed." ““About whom you are going to tell me when T have satisfied vour insati- able curiosity,” Lillian retorted, smil- ing. “Our system works very snioothly,’ she went on, “#o that it couldn't have been but a few minutes after the man with the scarred hand received a mes- sage from the inn that I had a copy of it, as I receive copies of all his let- ters, wires and phones. “‘Have caged the pigeon you lost,’ ran. ‘She just flew in.' “The thing came by messenger, eti- dently having heen telephoned to someone else first for safety. There was no clue to the place from which it haa been sent, but the man imme- diately went to the Long Island sta- tion. “Of course, as soon as I received the copy of the message I dashed down to the station myself, but he had al- ready gone.

Perry Merithew, bon vivant and millionaire about town, is found dead on the roof of a East Side tenement. There are but two clues; in the mur- dered man’s hand is grasped a strand of a woman's copper-colored hair, while Iying close to the body s an amethyst hat pin. The pin is found by a new: per man, Hallard, who keeps his discovery a secret from the police in order that he may solve the mystery. Subsequent events quickly involve five red-haired women in the mystery. There “Red Tda" Gaff- ney, pickpocket, badger woman, cab- aret singer and the wife of an = east side gun man. Another auburn-haired suspect is Aphra Shaler, once a mis- tress of the dead man. A third is Myrala Sokalska, a Russian girl of singulr beauty who has been installed is in a Central Park West apartment by | the murdered millionaire. Another a parasite of society. Pet Bettany, a handsome, reckless, young woman, who schemes her way through life, And the last is Muriel Schuyvley. the beautiful daughter of a Wall Street magnate. She {s a charming girl of refinement and sweectness and seems above suspicion. This is the situation at the end of the fi reel and the re- maining six reels are devoted to the solving of this tremendous mystery. “Empty Pockets” is a story of a rich- man, poor-man, beggar-man, thief—- to say nothing of pretty girls, good ana bad. Love stuff, hot stuff, rough stuff, sob Stuff, all mixed in_ proper proportions, make “Empty Poclets” the real stuff. Pearl White in episode No. 10 of “The House of Hate', entitled “Dou- ble Crossed”, opens with the Hooded Terror about to throw Pearl into a seething vat of acid. Pearl harely escapes with her life, and the Hood- ed Terror is apparently cornered at last—but it would not pay to tell more. We can tell you though that each epiodo is better than the previ- ous one, and never before has any se- 1 equalled “The House of Hate’. Followers of this should remember that Pearl White will now be at Fox's one day only, on Monday of each wek. Another ono of the James Montgom- ery Flagg series of “Girls You Know”, enttled “The Matihes Girl", is also shown today together with the Pathe News and HOUSEHOLD NOTES Common #alt will remove egg stains from spoons.

Miss Dalton, whose dimples are rapidly becoming as famed as is Kitty Gordon’s wonderful back, is at her at- tractive best in “ ‘Flare-Up' Ral,” mount star, which is from the prolific pen of J. G.

The early '50's in of California were exciting days, and “Flare-Up'” Sal, roflecting accurately that period, is replete with adventure and thrilling episodes.
