"I hail to quit work, I was so weak. Now,* thanks to Sargol I look like a uew man. I gained 22 pounds in 23 days." "Sargol has put 10 pounds on me In 14 days," states W. P. Roberts. "It has made me sleep well, enjoy what I »ie and enabled me to work with in terest and pleasure." "I weighed 132 pounds when 1 com menced taking Sargol. After taking 20 days 1 weighed 144 pounds. Sargol is the most wonderful preparation for flesh building I have ever seen," declares D. Martin, and ,1. Meier adds: "For the • tast twenty veaTs have taken medicine every day for indigestion and got thin ner every year. I took Sargol for forty days and feel better than T have felt in twenty years. My weight has increased from 150 to 170 pounds." AVhen hundreds of men and women— and there are hundreds, with more com ing every day—living iu even' nook and corner of this broad land, volun tarily testify to weight increases rang ing all the way from 10 to 33 pounds, given them by Sargol, you must admit, Mr. and Mrs. and Miss Thin Reader, 1 hat there must be something in this Sargol method of flesh building after all* Hadn't you better look into it. just as thousands of others have done.'

Mr. Quariteh?" • »**»«* We went back Into Quebec and Joe made over to the bank the amount of their loss as soon as Harris, the man ager, agreed (rather against his will) that no questions should be asked nor action taken. The same evening I. not being under the same embargo regarding questions. Inquired from Joe how in the world the fair Phedre covered her tracks from the canoe to where Atterson was lying. "That was simple for an active girl. She walked ashore along the paddle. »nd after her return to the canoe Ihrew water upon the mark it made in the mud. Didn't you notice how faint it was?" "But when she got on shore—how did she hide her trail then?" "It's not a new trick. She took a couple of short logs with her in the canoe. First she'd put oue down and step onto it. then she'd put the other one farther up and step onto that. Next she'd lift the one behind, and so on. Why did she do that? Well. I reckon she thought the trick good enough to blind Atterson. If he'd found a woman's tracks after being robbed he'd have suspected." "But you said before we left Atter *on's camp that whoever robbed him was middle height, a light weight and had black hair." "Well, hadn't she? Light weight be cause the logs wasn't much drove into the ground, not tall since the marks of them was so close together." "But the biaek hair?" Joe laughed. "That was the surest thing of the lot and put me wise to it and rhedre at the start. Twisted up in the buckle of the pack she gave j Atter c oti I found several strands of splendid black hah - . She must 'a' i caught her hair in the buckles while | carrying it." I "But.

And them kind are early ripe and go off their looks at twenty-five. I guess, Mr. Quariteh, her age was a pretty safe shot. CHAPTER XII. The Looted Island. IT was a clear night, bright with stars. Joe and I were sitting by our camp lite near one of the fiords of western Alaska, where we had 1 gone on a hunting expedition after the great moose of the west. I was talking when suddenly Joe touched me. "Shsh!" he whispered. "There's some feller moving down by the creek." We waited, and I was soon aware of a figure advancing through the night. Then a voice said. "Fine night, mates," and a sinewy, long armed fel low with a bushy red beard stepped into the circle of light. "The cold makes you keep your hands in your pockets, don't it?" said Joe gently. It does me." I then noticed that both men were covering each other with revolvers through their pockets. 'lhe stranger slowly drew out his hand. "I'm John Stafford." "This here is Mr. Quariteh of Que bec. I'm his guide. We're come after big game." "I guess you're speaking truth. It's up to me to apologize. I'm free to own I wa;: doubtful about you. You'll un derstand that whui 1 tell you what's happened. Perhaps you've noticed an island about eight miles off the coast, lying nor' nor'west?" "Sort of loaf shaped island? Yes." "That's where I come from—Eel is land. I have a fox farm there. I re turned to if yesterday after a run down to Valdez. When I went away a fortnight ago 1 loft my inn it in oliMVje of some of the finest black foxes be tween this and Ungavn. 1 a:ot back to find the foxes all killed and ray hired man none—disappeared." "Who was he?" "An Aleut, called Saui. He's been in my employ three years. I see what you're thinking—that ho killed the fox es. and I'd have thought that myself, only I know he didn't." "How's that?" "One reason is that I own only one boat, and when I went to the main land last Friday week I took it. leav ing Sam op the island. It's all of seven miles from the coast, so he couldn't have got away if lie wanted. That. I say. is one reason why it couldn't have been him. The other reason's as good. I was decoyed away so cleverly. Here's the letter that did it:" Sir—Your wife wants you to come down at once. Slip's due for an operation in the hospital here on Friday week, and she's hard put to it to plan for the chil dren till she gets about again. So you'd best come. Yours truly. S, MACFARIJANE (Doctor). 1 gave him back the letter. "Any man would have gone on such news." I said. "Well, ( did." said Stafford savagely. "I got that letter twelve days back, and off I went hot foot, leaving Alet t Sam in charge. It took me a wee. Roing down. When 1 renched tiie house where my wife is living, she was sti»- prised to see file, and I showed her the letter. You can guess. It was all s plant! There wasn't any Dr. Mao farlane. nor any operation, and bach I came—record breaking travel—to Eel Island. I found the place clean gutted. Ail the blacks and silvers caught and killed, and the skinned carcasses lying around. And Aleut Sam vanished as if he had never lived. It may have been done for spite, but whoever he was he lived in my cabin several days, and slept in my bunk. I wonder what he did with Sam. Knocked him on the bead and heaved him in the sea like as not. I'm nigh desperate. The work of thwe years gone, three win ters spent with Sam alone, like some kind of a Crusoe and his man Friday, and keeping my wife and two little gals down at Vnldes." "Look liere, ain't It n bit enrly In the year to kill foxes?" said Joe. after a pause. "They'd have been worth 25 per cent more in n mouth." "Then why?"— "Ret'nuse I couldn't have been de coyed away except while the steamer was running before the winter closed down. See? Even as early as this lu the year the pelts were worth $15,000." "My!" said Joe. "Suspect any one In particular?"

If be did he'd be welcome to $500," replied the fox farmer. "Good enough. November?" I asked. Joe nodded. "What do you mean?" asked Staf ford, turning to Joe. "You a trail reader?" "Learn in' to be," said Joe. • * * * « • * Thus it was agreed that we should go across to Eel island at dawn to let November have a look round. We went ashore, arid Joe at once took a cast, looking for tracks, though he knew he was little likely to find any, for the ground was as hard as iron and had been impervious for days. We next climbed to Stafford's cabin. "Come right in," said he. To Be Continued. AMUSEMENTS > m % MAJESTIC Tonight. Rose Stahl ia "A Perfect Lady.'' Monday, matinee nnd night.. Nov. 23, "The Shepherd of the Hills." Wednesday evening, Nov. 25, TVitzi-Scheff in "Pretty Mrs. Smith." ORPHEUM Every afternoon and evening, high tlass vaudeville. COLONIAL Daily continuous 'audeville and pic tores. k ■ Rose Stahl Channing Pollock and liennold Wolf have achieved countrv-wide fame as collaborators, their principal work hav ing been on musical plays, but it is said that in "A 'Perfect Lady," the new comedy in which Miss' Rose Stahl will appear at the Majestic this oven ing the authors have done the best work of their career. Mr. Pollock by himself lias written many well-known plays, among the more popular of which will be found "A Game of Hearts," "Clothes," "The Pit," "The Great Adventure," "The Traitor," "The In ner Shrine," "In the Bishop's Car riage," "The Secret Orchard," "The little Gray Lady" and "Such a Little Queen." Many of these pieces have been used for making moving pictures. Miss Beatrice Noyes, who will have an important part in Miss Rose Stall I's new play, has played many important parts in recent years. Miss Noyes was with "The First Lady in the Land," " The Country Boy," " The Commut ers, "The Cave Man" and other plays produced by the late Henry B. Har ris. Last season she distinguished herself by her interpretation of the part of Aggie in "Within the Law." In "A Perfect Lady" it is said that Miss Noyos has a part which will give her many opportunities to display her talents fov comedy. Adv. "The Shepherd of the Hills" No modern writer of fiction can claim as many readers as Harold Bell Wright, his books having sold into the millions. The most popular of the Wright no\els, ''The Shepherd of the Hills," has been made into a play by Mr. Wright, with the assistance of Kls- Iberv W. Reynolds. The second presen tation of "The Shepherd of the Hills" •in this city will be given at the Ma jestic Monday, with a special matinee. The story has been so widely read tha/t a resume of it is practically unneces sary. It is a storv of the Oxark moun tains and of a people that live whole some, clean lives, who do big things in a matter-of-fact, manner. It is a play that makes its auditor a better man or woman for having seen it. Adv. Fritzi Scheff Fritzi SchelT in " Pretty Mrs. Smith" will foe seen at the Majestic Wednes day evening, coming direct from the ' asino theatre, Now York. "Pretty Mrs. Smith" is a musical play in three acts. Books by Oliver Monosco and El mer Harris, lyrics by Karl Carroll and is further elaborated by the tuneful musical score of Henry James and Al fred Robyn. It is presented as something differ ent in the way of light musical enter tainment and is founded upon the ap peal of a well-constructed comedy of f#-cical leanings. There were numerous musical additions, but these have been subordinated to the main theme without losing any of their catchiness. The score serves to speed the action instead of obtruding into the story. AH Drueille Smith, A much married sojourner at ll'alm Beach, Miss SchefT has about the best role she has bait during her succesiful career on the light opera stage.

Wills, most celebrated c vaudeville's funsters, continues to b a laughing sensation at the Onpheun His drolleries arc crisply new an equally as funny, but his facial expre? sions and manner of delivery are eve funnier. Nat starts his audience laugl ing the minute he strolls before th footlights. With his "fried egg" ha ragged togs and a million badges co\ ering his waistcoat, he comes out smi ing and looking as happy as if he wer 1 a millionaire. If its possible for tramp to be as happy as Nat Will then there are a lot of tramps with a least something on the "gold gral •bers." Nat reads some war tel< grams that he says were sent to hii and, while bis audience laughs so hear ily that he can 't read further, he giv< a twist, of his elongated tongue, pronounced stamp ot the foot and th house roars.
