When Jerry Cal houn ntHounces that ha haa e- . are -married Nancy IV cm luorHi, Ashwood who . is holding Nancu and tour men for ransom on an island is hurt in iealousy and urtde. Uncoil also a prisoner, who loves Nancu, attacks Jerry, Sic-' vens and Battles, friends at Jerry, stand by Aim. Chapter 28 BRASS KNUCKLES? EVEN as Jerry drew his right hand back for a punch, Steve stepped forward and, bending slightly to the left, tripped the charging gangster, who lunged tor ward, Angers clawing desperately toward the pilot. At the same Instant Jerry threw the full weight ot .his powerful body Into a ferritin uppercut. It was a masterpiece of. timing, smashing full upward to the point o( Luccl's chin. " "-' ' Luccl's head snapped back. He continued his precipitate fall to the floor and hit with a crash that caused the windows to, rattle In their frames. He lay there, utterly limp, where he had fallen. Jerry swung around hastily to face Ashwood. The crlpplo's right liaud held tho blue steel butt of nn automatic which was outlined against the cream-colored fabric or the pongee suit. Ills eyes were What ho!" beamed Ashwood, re garding him In feigned astonish ment "Are you, with us .again, Ono-shot?" 'Was It you that slugged me?" Luccl's malignant oyes glared at Emory. "No, old timer, but 1 wish I had. Someono beat me to It" "It was 1," Interrupted Jerry, smiling politely. "May 1 help you up? If It happens that you aren't satisfied, get on your feet, I'll try to polish you off, this time." Lucel rose painfully, faced Jerry and doubled his fists. He swayed on his feet and nearly fell. His opponent' watched htm with grow ing admiration. "You have plenty of spunk," he said. "Let me put you to bed for a spell. .Then, If .you like, yon can totter out here and take a fall out. of me." - "I'll put him In the sheets," of fered Emory. "You stay here." ' The bright flaro of animosity In the hard brown, eyes faded and as Emory put his sturdy arm about the gangster's shoulders, Lucel per mltted himself to be led from the room. Tho minister, who had watched the conflict with pale face and wide open oyes, walked unsteadily to the nearest chair and fell Into It. "I am nearly fifty years ot age," combination of these procedures. The method employed depends upon the age and condition of the patient, the acuteness or chronlcity of hla dis ease, tile degree of Intoxication uuf fcred, and tho results obtained by preliminary trcatmont. The acutely 111 young patient may at times be treated successfully medi cally through the use of Iodine, to gether with rest and other measures. However, failure to . Improve- under audi treatment may necessitate sur- dtr-j,' Intarvpntlnn. Tho effects on the body Qf the In toxication due to toxic goiter aro cumulative and the patient who has suffered the disease for a long time makes a poor operative risk, and Is not as likely to have good results from his operation as the person spared the prolonged effects of the disease. Thyrotoxicosis, as the condition toxic goiter Is termed, may affect the heart, the nervous system, tho dlgos- tlon and excretory organs, as well as the function of the higher levels of the brain. In certain conditions X-ray and ra-dltuu-may be employed in the treat ment of toxlo goiter. Which ot these treatments to- employ is a matter to bo determined by careful study of each Individual caae. The patient who suffers from tcxle goiter should not attempt to dictate to his physician the method of treatment, merely because the one he prefers has been known to be ef fective on someone of his acquaint ance who had a ' similar case."

Ashwood's eyes were fixed, almost incredulously, upon the massive, Inert . bulk of the gangster. Incredulously, upon Inert bulk ot the fixed, almost the massive, gnngstor. "Great Caesar!" he breathed, "let's see your brass knuckles, Cap tain Colhouu." "Don't use them," retorted Jerry, curtly. A3 suddenly as It had begun, the tension In the quiet room snapped. Ashwood's laugh was almost gay as he shoved the automatic Into Its armpit holster. Yet there was a cutting edge to his laughter 'which made Stevens and Emory glance sharply at him. The natural color had flowed back Into his cheeks but there was an odd twist to his Hps which belled tho merry laughter. "My congratulations!" Ho bowed. "How careless of me not to have noted the budding romance. And how tactful ot me to have supplied the minister." It occurred to Jerry that Ashwood , was sparring for time, readjusting kls mind to the altered circumstances. "I'll con fess that It has taken me quite by surprise. Miss Went pardon, Mrs. Calboun, would It quite shatter your young heart to be forced to leave your bridegroom tomorrow?" "It would!" snapped Nancy. Except for a slightly heightened color on her lovely checks, Nancy might have bocn a conventional bride accepting her first congratu lations. Jerry, close by her side, stared truculently at Ashwood, ready to precipitate Immediate hos tilities If the cripple turned out to be a poor loser. Emory looked at Nancy, winked openly at Jerry, then stepped Into the breach. Turn. Ing to Ashwood, he suggested Ira pndently: "Well, old timer, how about set ting the bridal party up to the drinks?" . The thoughtful expression faded from the crlpplo's eyes. "Excellent," he agreed, clapping his hands. The steward appeared Instantly. "Alfred, have we any champagne left In tho bins?" The steward nodded. "Good. Serve It, please.", ? j There was a groan from the limp form on the floor. Lucel stirred uneasily, then sat up. ho announced profoundly, "and never In my life have I witnessed such brutality.". "Parson, stick around," "grinned Jerry. "It's my opinion that you are In right at the beginning. We're just warming up for some real fights." Dr. Tltherlngton fanned himself with a newspaper. The lanky Bos toner returned just as the steward brought in tho buckets of Ice from which protruded the necks of sev eral champagne bottles. "Calhoun," said Ashwood, watch ing the golden bubbles rise In bis goblet, "I would be almost tempted to postpone my retirement from this profitable and diverting rack eteering It I could persuade you and Battles to become my right hand men." "Not sure I wouldn't take up your offer, Ashle," retorted Emory. "1 almost dread the end ot this party." "You should be ashamed of your self!" suddenly boomed Dr. Tlther lngton, in a voice which almost shook tho goblet from Emory's hand. "Imagine! A young man of breeding and Intellect, even consid ering casting his lot with these persons!" , Ho suddenly caught Ashwood's oyo and collapsed, flushing. "You woro saying?" The cripple's eyebrows were arched In polite interrogation. "Yeah, wc all know what ho was going to say." Stevens came to tho harassed man's rescue. "He's right, too. Lot of comfort you're going to be to yourself In your old age, Ltmpy. As a matter of fact, though, you're about as old as you'll ever get, right now." "Dear, dear, Banquo at the feast! Why be so pessimistic when we woro ell so merry?" Ashwood sighed, then cast a sardonic glance at Jerry and Nancy. "Why so pen sive, bride and bridegroom? You aro not, by chance, regretting your rashness already?" Jerry faced blm, his eyes glint ing.
