(EMz BEGIN HERE TODAY Captain John Hewitt, commissioner of police at Jesselton, British North Borneo, is worrled because jewels are stolen from lLady Stornawgy while #he is a guest at his home. Chai- Hung, influential Chinese, promises to assist In the recovery of the jewels. Peter Pennington, detective, is hired by the government to capture ‘the leader of The Yellow Beven, a gang of Chinese bandits. Monica Viney, sister of Captain Hewitt, Officer Dawson to take Chinese gambling den her to a NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY 8he could have sworn man who manipulated the inverted shells was none other than the man in whom her brether had declared ab- solute confidence—Chai-Hung! But, clearly as the swiftly-moving events of that momentous evening were imprinted on her memory, she was destined to witness a somewhat puzzling “curtain’ to her singularly poignant drama, a climax that for some moments, at least, forced her to belleve she had been the victim of an optical illusion. For, as she turned to murmur her thanks to the inimitable Dawson, her glance wan- dered from the flight of white steps to a long canechair at the far end of the commissioner's veranda, Clothed in a suit of immaculate “whites,” breathing with the placid regularity of a heaithy child, Chinese Pennington slumhnred peacefuily! A Monica was leaning on the wooden rail, gazing beyond the sun-scorched slopes to where—at the farthest ex tremity of the white jetty, the black funnel of the Darvel emitted a faint, hesitant line of smoke. Hewlitt—in his shirt sieeves, his topee set at a jaunty angle, was in- terviewing a native orderly in the garden. Hovering in the foreground, coolly inciting a juvenile fox-terrier to burrow in a hed for a legendary rat, Peter Pennington smoked and waited, He approached the commis- stoner the instant the interview was &t an end. “Just been down to the boat,” he explained. “She pushes off at eleven.” Hewitt glanced at his watch. “There's a gnod half-hour yet.” “Quite a lot can happen in half an hour,” returned Pennington. “still gearching everybody?" The commissioner grunted. “If you want my opinion,” he said “That confounded pendant’s not on the island.” “I'm afraid J don't agree with you It probably won't be here much longer." He flicked the ash from his cigarette. b o to go “Seen Chai-Hung? _¥No, but he sent up a chit by a coolie, asking permission to go on board and interview the supercargo about some rice he's expecting.” “Of course you refused " The commissioner described a semi- circle in the dust with the toe of a shoe. “On the contrary,” he asserted loftily, “I gave him a permit. The evidence you've succeeded in raking together against him is purely cir- cumstantial. You've always had your knife into him, you know."” Pennington stuck his feet - apart. “He damn' nearly had a knife into me—a couple of nights ago!" He caught Hewitt's sleeve. “Look here, old son, I'm not letting you chuck away your chances like this. Storn- away's all right, but she'll never rest until she's got vou out of this, Petti- coat influence is the very devil!” He dropped . his voice to a whisper. “Chai-Hung's got that pendant on him now, don't you understand? Once he's got it aboard you won't have a dog's chance of finding it.” The commissioner wavered “You don't know who's got it,” he declared. “I've every rcason to believe tas, and I'm not taking any risks. you don't slip into your tunic and come down with me, I warn you I'll search him muyselr."” At that moment, Monica, trembling with suppressed excitement, caught sight of a red umbrella passing pla- wide ON A PULLMAN WHO put the “sleep” in || Sleeping Car?

For a second his gaze traveled to Pennington, who re- turned it with equanimity, “I'm afraid ‘you will both be dis- appointed.” “On the contrary,” returned Pen- nington with studied politeness, AT feel sure that both the commissioner and myself would be indefinitely mor- tified should it transpire that Lady Stornaway's dlamonds have come into your possession, Chai-Hung drew in a deep breath, folded his umbrella, and handed it to a waiting coolie. Hewitt moved impatiently. “Might as well get this unpleasant duty over,” he suggested. “A cabhin would be the handiest place, don't you think, Pennington?" They crossed the- gangway and passed into the first state-room that chanced to be unoccupied. - Penning- ton closed the door. “Can 1 offer you a drink, Mr. Chai- Hung?" asked the commissioner. The oriental shook his head and, producing a cigar case quointly em- broidered with a silver dragon, glanced inquiringly round. “T rave your permission to smoke?" “Most certainly,”” Hewitt hastened to assure him. ‘“No thanks. Not, for me. If you don't mind, I'll have a cigarette.” Pennington, seated on the edge of the berth, his hands stuck deep in his pockets, declined also. Chai- Hung lit up carefully, and passed the | matches on to the commissioner.

He ordered slings. The deep-throated note of the ves- sel's siren reverberated suddenly and,: at that moment, Chal-Hung emerged from the cabin, surveying the dead- end of the cigar he had laid aside. Both men rose, but the benign smile with which the oriental greeted them drove the intended apology from Hewitt's lips. “Bfficiency, Mr. Pennington,” he said, “is the keynote of success. I sincerely hope that before we meet again you will have been successful in your search.” H he de- With disarming cordlality, he dropped a hand on the shoulder of each and accompanied them to the gankway, Hewitt was on the point of cross- ing to the jetty when Chai-Hung laughed, “You will never cure yourself of that little failing, I'm afrald,” he as- serted blandly. “Do you mind re- turning me my matches?"” The commissioner dropped his cane, “You don't mean to say—? By Gad! 1 have though!” He produced the missing box, The oriental, still smiling, reached out for it, but, before his fingers could close on it, Pennington's had inter- vened. “Just a minute,” he murmured apologetically, a queer llight in his eyes. “Mine happens to be out, too!" He turned his back and, withdraw- ing the flimsy cover, deliberately emptied the legitimate contents into his palm. He let the matches fall, one by one, to the deck, and Helitt, obsessed with a hazy notion that his friend's recent energies had turned his brain, stepped close up to him and peered apprehensively over his shoul- der, Yielding to the pressure of Pen- nington’s finger-nail, the false bot- tom of the box came away, and there, in the cunningly contrited recess it had 'so effectively screened, lay a dream of platinum and diamonds— the myriad facets flashing in the tropic sunlight!"” The commissioner speechless amazement. found his tongue. Good Lord! How on earth—? He choked suddenly and passed a weary hand across his forehead. ‘‘He had the damned effrontery to give 'em to me!"” He swung round savagely. “Here, Mr. Chai-Hung—!" .

A well-known authority states that stomach troubles and indigestion are nearly always due to acidity—acid stomach—and not, as most folks be- lieve, from a lack of digestive juices. He states that an excess of hydro- choloric acid in the stomach retards digestion and starts food fermenta- tion; then our meals sour like gar- bage in a can, forming acrid fluids and gases, which inflate the stomach nke a toy balloon. We then get that heavy, lumpy feeling in the chest, we eructate sour food, beleh gas or have heartburn, flatuence, water-brash or nausea. He tells us to lay aside all digestive alds and instead get from any phar- macy four ounces of Jad Salts and take a tablespoon in a glass of water before breakfast, while it is effer- vescing, and furthermore, to continue this for one week. While relief often follows the first dose, it is im- | portant to neutralize the acidity, re- move the gas-making mass, start the liver, stimulate the kidneys and thus promote a free flow of pure digestive juices, Jad Salts is inexpensive and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and so- dium phosphate.

By The Associated Press. Budapest, July 21.—The Papal nun- clo upon instructions from the Pope has ordered the famous coronation church of Saint Mathtas closed until it has been reconsecrated because it has been desecrated through use as a site for a motion picture. The famous edifice’ was utilized in screening a film drama depicting the coronation of one of the Hapsburg kings. The film company got permis- sion from the civil and ecclesiastical authorities to stage the coronation ceremony on the jdentical spot on which all the kings from the Arpads to the late Emperor Carl were crowned. Permission also was given to one of the actors to wear the coronation robes of the archbishop but as it was found that in the hem of this garment a wafer blessed by the Pope had been sewed the authorities would only al low it to be worn by a bishop, an Bishop Vlascios participated .in the play. The assumption of ‘the role of an actor by the b}shop enraged the population.
