FRIDAY EVENING,
SILVER SANDALS
A Detective Story of Mystery, Love and Adventure.
By Clinton H. Stagg.
Copyright, W. J. Watt & Co.. International News Service.
The coroner made no effort to BtlU
the loud whispers of surprised com
ment the reading of the note caused.
In fact, there seemed a bit of pride in
his manner as he glanced down at the
j long table with Its rows of newspaper
men; as though each new twist to the
case was of his own devising. There
came a glow of professional pride as
he realized that this case would spread
I his name all over the country. He
handed the note to the jurymen, and
they read it one by one, nodding wise
ly. Meanwhile the talk went on In the
room. The curious phraseology of
the table reservation was discussed
fully.
" 'lnclosed are fifty dollars,' " re
peated a Times man to a World re
porter, who sat beside him. "Not
one person In a thousand would put
that sentence In that way. It's too
stlltedly correct."
" 'After your time of midnight!' "
exclaimed a Sun man. "There isn't
a spot on earth, where time Is kept,
that midnight isn't universal. Why
'your time'?"
Coroner Bierbauer interrupted the
speculation to speak: "Those words
are written on papyrus, a kind of
paper made In ancient Egypt" from
the corner of his eye he saw the im
pression this new information made
—'"a writing expert declared that the
words had been written by a man.
There are two other notes, written by
the same person within the last few
days, according to the expert. One,
addressed to myself, I will now read
you:
Coroner Bierbauer: At the Beau
monde Restaurant you will find a dead
man. Kindly proceed at once to make
your official Investgiation so that the
body may be sent as quickly as pos
sible to the Fresh Pond Crematory for
incineramm.
"As in the case of the other note,
there '.s no signature," added the cor
oner. "This note was delivered about
eleven-thirty last night by a messeng
er bov from an upper Broadway office.
There is no record of who left it.
Here is the other note, directed tc
Police Captain McMann:
Captain McMajjn: At the Beau
monde Restaurank you will find a
dead man. How his death was caused
a superficial examination will prob
ably reveal. Unwind police tape as
quickly as possible so that the body
may be sent to Fresh Rond, where
arrangements have been made for in
cineration.
Coroner Bierbauer made several
notes on the paper at his elbow, glanc
ing toward the door from time to time.
A frown came over his nose as the
man for whom he was looking did not
appear. Manager Carl fidgeted as the
minutes went by and no attention was
paid to him.
"I've got work to do!" he snapped
finally.
Bierbauer's frown deepened. An
other glance toward the door, then
he put another question to the short
tempered manager, who was being
kept away from his hot#!.
"Did you see the couple enter the
hotel?"
"No. I didn't see the couple at all.
THE JOY OF
MOTHERHOOD
Words of Encouragement to
Childless Women.
Motherhood is woman's natural desti
ny, but many women are denied the
happiness of children simply because of
Bome curable derangement.
Among the many triumphs of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is
its marvelous power to overcome such
derangements, as evidenced by the fol
lowing letter :
Worcester, Mass.—"l suffered from
female ills, and was advised to have an

that am
thank the Vegetable
Compound for my restoration to health."
—Mrs. BERT GAKVEV, 20 Hacker St,
Worcester, Mass.
In many other homes, once childless,
there are now children because of the
fact that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound makes women normal,
healthy and strong.

An Unfailing Way
To Banish Hairs
(Beauty Notes)
Ugly hairy growths can be removed
in the privacy of your own home if
you get a small original package of
delatone and mix Into a paste enough
of the powder and water to cover the
hairy surface. This should be left on
the skin about 2 minutes, then re
moved and the skin washed, and every
trace of hair will have vanished. No
harm or inconvenience can result from
this treatment, but- be sure you buy
real delatone.
1 1 only saw the man when the captain
sent for me."
"Where were you?"
"In the cafe."
"Then you couldn't have seen them
if they had entered the hotel through
any of the entrances?"
"No."
"Why didn't you notify the waiting
captain of the table reservation?"
"Forgot it. I received the note
early yesterday morning. I had an
important engagement In the after
noon, and turned it over to my as
sistant because the night-room men
don't report until five o'clock. Why
he didn't tell the captain I don't
know."
"Where is your assistant?"
"He started yesterday' on a' month's
vacation."
"Where?"
"He didn't tell me. It was none of
my business. The vacation was com
ing to him, and when his time was up
at six o'clock he went."
"Did you examine the waiter to see
that ho qualified for a position In your
restaurant?"
"No. My assistant has charge of
the dinlngroom force."
"What's his name?"
"John Norman."
The coroner made several notes be
fore he asked the next question, and
two of the square-jawed detectives
hurried out to get the wheels of the
police department started on this new
lead.
"What did you do when you saw
that the man was dead?"
"I didn't see that he was dead. I
asked a friend of mine, Mr. Colton,
to find out what was the trouble with
him."
"Why Mr. Colton?" scowled the
coroner.
"Because he's cleverer at finding out
things than the whole darned police
force put together! That's why!"
A bang of the coroner's gavel chas
ed the smiles from the faces of the
spectators.
"Didn't you think it strange," de
manded Bierbauer angrily, "that such
a note should be sent with a bottle
of rare-vintage wine? Wasn't that
worth looking into a bit instead of
handing it casually to your assistant?"
"Nothing's strange lu my business.
I've had tables reserved for tame
monkeys and pet lion clubs, and there
have been banquets for South Sea
Island chiefs with blue baboons tat
tooed on their cheeks. If any one
wants his own wine served, it's none
of my business, if he pays for the
service."
Bierbauer had an angry retort
ready, but a quick separation of the
crowd at the door drove It from his
mind, and a pleased light came to his
eyes as the burly form of Police Cap
tain McMann pushed his way through
the throng.
"Is there any way the man and wo
man could have entered the restaurant
without some one seeing them?" Bier
bauer put the question as though it
were merely a matter of duty, and he
wanted to get it over.
"No. Some one's lying!" growled
the manager.
"What's that?" Bierbauer straight
ened in his seat.
"Do you suppose crooks and pick
pockets could enter a hotel like the
Beaumonde?" asked the manager
sarcastically. "Some one sees every
one who comes in. I thought I was
paying men to watch!"
"Do you wvvn the Beaumonde?"
"Phiilp J. Bracken owns it"
"Has he been noUtled of last night's
occurrence?"
"I've been trying to locate his yacht
by wireless all night. When he comes
you can question him. He knows as
much about it as I do."
"That's all!"
Carl growled at the dismissal, and
pushed his way from the room, turn
ing a persistent reporter aside with a
snarl.
"Captain McMann!" called Bier
bauer, and the police captain, with a
conscious air of his importance,
mounted the stand and took the oath.
"You investigated the case at the
Beaumonde last night?"
"I did. I was on the job fifteen
minutes after I got the note. It
might have been a fake, but I wasn't
taking any chances in my precinct!"
The captain's eyes were on the news
paper men, to see that they got it
right. Then he glanced up as there
came another movement of the crowd
at the door. A look of triumph flash
ed across his face for a minute before
the official mask fell again. The man
who entered the room, his thin stick
held loosely n hs fingers, the blue
lenses of his spectacles looking
straight at the captain, was Thornley
Colton.
The coroner saw, too, and his eyes
t met those of the captain before "he
put the question.
"From your experience, would you
| classify the death of the man at the
restaurant table as murder?" he put
bluntly.
"No doubt of It!" The emphatic
statement came unhesitatingly.
"Will you telr the jury why you
say that?" The coroner's voice in
dicated that he knew the reply, and
his eyes swept the room, resting on
the ace of the white-haired man who
leaned easily against the back row of
seats.
"I will." The captain spoke the two
words slowly and a dozen keen ears
caught the note of gloating in his
voice. "I know it was murder
because the murderer is under arrest
at police headquarters! His name is
George Nelson, and he's the waiter
who disappeared from the Beaumonde
last night!"
The silence that followed this
startling statement was broken as the
slim cane fell from Thornley Colton's
fingers to the hardwood floor at his
feet.
CHAPTER IX
A Smoking Trail
A quick clean-up! This, in police
and newspaper parlance, is the phrase
which describes rapid action, quick
solution of a case, and landing the
prisoner in a cell. li> the four-word
terseness of the sentence is the high
est praise, the greatest encomium
that oan be given a police officer.
Captain McMann had made one of the
quickest clean-ups in the "history of
New York crime. Eight hours after
one of the most mystifying murders
that the city had known the murderer
was in a cell.
The police captain was the last wit
ness called. He tola of the all-night
search for the man on whom sus
picion had instantly rested; the wait
er who assisted the man to the
table. He told of finding him in the
back room of a cafe on Park Row,
above the bridge babbling drunkenly
of silver sandals, of a walking dead
man, of his failure to receive the
money he had been promised for
"pulling off the greatest stunt New
York ever saw, right under the noses
of a hundred people."
The prisoner.was well under the in
fluence of liquor, and at police head
quarters heroic methods were being
adopted to straighten him out suffici
ently to get a confession. Headquart
ers detectives were already on the
trail of the silver-sandaled woman,
and an arrest was expected there in
a few hours. And on the testimony
of Police Captain McMann, "George

Nelson, waiter, age twenty-seven,"
was held as a "material witness."
Before the captain had left the
stand, the reporters had disappeared
In search of telephones and members
of the coroner's jury crowded for
ward to shake the hand of the police
captain and congratulate him. Why
a coroner's Jury should do such a
thing is one of the higher mysteries;
but it is flfcaracteristic of all Jurymen
to congratulate some one. Prisoner
or prosecutor makes no difference.
The morbidly curious joined the Jury
men, and Coroner Blerbauer, relieved
of the tremendous weight of official
dignity, smiled genially on one and all.
His duty had been done, and done
well.
At the rear of the room, Thornley
Colton stood alone, carelessly tracing
diagrams on the hardwood floor with
the end of his recovered stick. The
red-haired boy, whose clothes had ap
parently been rolled In the mud, had
wriggled through th crowd to pick
up the fallen stick, and had wriggled
out again.
Captain McMann finally spied the
blind man, and made his way toward
him. nodding to the men on all sides
his appreciation of the compliments
he was getting. The hangers-on of
the coroner's office kept a respectful
distance from the greatness of the po
lice, and talked It over among them
selves with many a whispered "I told
you he'd do It!"
"Congratulations In order?" asked
the blind man smilingly, with hand
extended.
McMann accepted the words and
the hand as matter of fact. "You're
a miglfty good loser," he conceded
generously. "But I said before it was
a job for practical men. you're all
right; you've done good work, but on
a real case it's the police every,time."
"No doubt of it being a real case."
Seriousness took the place of Colton's
smile. % "Have you cleared up all the
peculiar ends yet?"
"We will before night!" was the
way the captain dodged that question.
"We only landed the waiter an hour or
so ago. I telephoned the coroner that
I'd be right up, so I didn't have much
of a chanee to get anything on the
detail part."
"Mind telling me how you located
Take Iron, Says Doctor, if You
Want Plenty of "Stay There"
Strength Like an Athlete!
Ordlnnrj- Nuxated Iron Vl'lll Make Dell- j
c««e, XcrvouH Rundown People
200 Per Cent. Stronger In TITO
Weeks' Time, In Many
Cases
NEW YORK, N. Y. Most people
foolishly seem to think they are going
to get renewed health and strength
from some stimulating medicine, secret
nostrum or narcotic drug, said Dr.
Sauer, a well-known Specialist who has
studied widely both In this country and
Europe, when, as a matter of fact, real
and true strength can only come from the
rood you eat. But people often fail to get
the strength out of their food because
they haven't enough iron in their blood
to enable It to change food Into living
matter. From their weakened, nervous
condition they know something is
wrong, but they can't tell what, so they
generally commence doctoring for stom
ach, liver or kidney trouble or symp
toms of some other ailment caused by
the lack of Iron in the blood. This
thing may go on for years, while the
patient suffers untold agony. If you
are not strong or well you owe it to
vourself to make the following test. See
how long you can work or how far you
can walk without becoming tired. Next
take two five grain tablets of ordinary*
nuxated Iron three times per day after
meals for two weeks. Then test your
strength again and see for yourself
how much you have gained. I have
seen dozens of nervous, rundown people
who were ailing all the while, double
and even triple their strength
and endurance and entirely get
rid of all symptoms of dyspepsia,
Uver and other trouble* la from
the waiter so quickly?" The problem
ist seemed really anxious to know.
"Ltttle reasonln', little knowledge of
human nature, and a practical way of
going after what you want." McMann
could afford to be magnanimous. "If
you know much about human nature,
you know a man can't pull off a stunt
like last night without needln' a couple
of drinks or so to make him forget.
But after that first couple he only re
members worse, and he needs some
more, and when he gets more he talks.
That hunch works eight times out of
ten. Bein' practical, we watched the
saloons. We knew he was a new
hand, because the description didn't
fit the old ones. We got him, and that
shows you that while theories are all
right in their places, there's a prac
tical side to this game you ain't had a
chance to learn with dark eyes—that's
unusual enough. We sent out an
alarm for a blond feller to narrow
it down for easy spotting."
"Cm!" Colton's can regumea its
tracing on the floor. "LooKed as
though he'd been drunk about five
days, didn't he?"
The grin faded from the captain's
face. "What d'ye mean by five days?"
he wanted to know.
"That's the time Bracken's yacht
landed. I looked that up. He sailed
again yesterday. I had an idea some
one might have gotten the waiter
drunk and have stolen the recommen
dations to get the Job."
The grin came back "We had the
same sort of a hunch," he declared
warmly. "But this guy talked! He
told us about doing the job and not
getting his money. He knew the wo
man that wore the silver sandals!"
"I'd forgotten that." If the cap
tain could have read the mind of the
problemist he would have seen real
puzzlement there. But there was no
trace of it in his tone as he asked the
next question: "Have you learned the
name of the dead man yet?"
"Not yet, but we'll get It before
night!" declared the captain positively.
"Perhaps I can help you." Thorn
ley CoUon took his wallet from his
pocket and handed the police captain
half a dozen slipplngs from news
papers. McMann read from one:
In New York, suddenly, December
ten to fourteen days' time simply by
taking Iron in the proper form. And
this after they had In some cases been
doctoring for months without obtain
ing: any benefit. But don't take the old
forms of reduced Iron. Iron acetate or
tincture of iron simply to save a few
cents. You must take Iron in a forw
that can be easily absorbed and assimi
lated like nuxated iron if you want It
to do you any good, otherwise it may
prove worse than useless. Many an
athlete or prize fighter has won the day
simply because he knew the secret of
great strength and endurance and fllleo
his blood with Iron before ho went Into
the affray, while many another has
gone down to inglorious defeat simply
for the lack of iron.
NOTE—Nuxated Iron recommended
above by Dr. Sauer, is one of the newer i
organic iron compounds. Unlike the j
older inorganic iron products, It Is eas
ily assimilated, does not injure the I
teeth, make them black, nor upset the
stomach; on the contrary, it is a most I
potent remedy, In nearly all forms of
indigestion, as well as for nervous, run
down conditions. The Manufacturers
have such great confidence In Nuxated ;
Iron that they offer to forfeit 1100.00
to any charitable Inntltution if they
cannot take any man or woman under
60 who lacks Iron and increase their
strength 200 per cent, or over In four

serious organic trouble. They also of

There was the habitual growl in the
captain's words as he saw the loung
ers in the room staring at tlfe two.
Colton nodded, and followed. In a
corner of the corridor the captain
stopped to glance again at the clip
pings, his heavy brow wrinkled and
creased.
