gestion or don't the elastic-sided
boots fit?"
"Do you know what we have been
discussing, Hugh?" said the other
quietly.
"Not an earthly, old man. Was it
that new one about the girl in the
grocer's shop?"
"WeVe been discussing the leader
of the Black Gang," said Sir Bryan
with his eyes fixed on the man sprawl
ing in the chair opposite.
Not by the twitch of a muscle did
Drummond's face change: he seemed
engrossed in the task of selecting a
cigarette.
"You've been in Deauville, haven't
you, Hugh the last few days?"
"Quite right, old man. All among
the fairies."
"You don't know that a burglary
has taken place at your house in Lon
don?" "A burglary!" Drummond sat up
with a jerk. "Why the deuce hasn't
Denny told me?"
"A very small one," said Sir Bryan,
"committed by myself and perhaps he
doesn't know. I took your type
writer." For a few moments Hugh Drum
mond stared at him in silence; then
his Hps began to twitch.
"I see," he said at length. "I meant
to have thBt defective V repaired."
"You took me in old boy," contin
ued Sir Bryan, "utterly and asbolute
ly. If it hadn't been for one of the
men at Maybrick hall turning king's
evidence, I don't believe I should have
found out now."
"Well, what are you going to do
about it?" asked Drummond after a
pause.
"Nothing. I was discussing the
matter with Sir John this morning,
and we both agreed that you either
deserved penal servitude or a seat in
the cabinet. And since neither course
commends itself to us, we have de
cided to do nothing. There are rea
sons, which you will appreciate,
against any publicity at the moment.
But, Hugh, the Black Gang must
cease."
"Carried, nem. con., Tum-tum. It
shall automatically dissolve today.
Now, one for you. Why did you let
Carl Peterson escape? I neary killed
him that night, after I'd bayoneted
the Russian."
"How did you know he had escap
ed?" demanded Sir Bryan.
Hugh felt in his pocket and pro
duced a note.
"Read it," he said.
"It was a pity you forgot that there
might be another key to the padlock,
Captain Drummond," it ran. "And
Guiseppi is an old friend of mine. I
"uite enjoyed our single."
Sir Bryan returned the note without
a word, and Drummond replaced it
in his pocket.
He rose and grinned at his friend.
"It's deuced good of you, old man,
and all that . . ." The eyes of
the two men met,
"If it was found out, I should be
looking for another job," remarked
Sir Bryan dryly. "And perhaps I
should not get the two thousand
pounds which I understand the wid
ow of the late Ginger Martin has re
ceived anonymously."
"Shut up," said Drummond awk
wardly. "Delighted, old man," returned the
other. "But the police in that dis
trict are demanding a rise of pay.
She has been drunk and disorderly
five times in the last week."

Service and the Small
Account
This bank is a service institution organized to meet finan
cial necessities of its depositors. The amount of its ser
vice to its dpeositors often depends on the bank balances
they maintain.
This bank must carefully protect the funds deposited
here by its depositors. Money can be loaned only when
we feel sure that it will be safe. When a depositor main
tains a reasonably large, steady balance, it is an indica
tion to us that he knows how to use money successfully.
It gives us a reason to believe that loans to him will be
safe. That is one reason why depositors who maintain
large balances get better service from their bank. They
are entitled to it.
And even more than that, a large balance provides
the depositor with sufficient funds to take care of emer
gencies and business opportunities that may arise.

nice boy 1 Hut his father was an old cavalry colonel known as
"Raw Meat' so he had "Blinky" detailed to the roaring, fighting
143rd Cavalry on the Mexican border. It was there that "Hlinky"
found himself and earned a real nickname the one that he pre
ferred to any other name in the world.
This is Hoot's greatest picture, thrilling ridea over cactus
studded deserts, and dangerous passes, with an entire cavalry
troop thundering behind him, alternating with scenes of hilarious
comedy and rugged romance.
