Your
MODEL T FORD
is still
d, good car
THE Model T Ford led the motor industry for twenty
years because of its sturdy worth, reliability and econ
omy. Those same reasons continue to make it a good car.
As a matter of fact, nearly one-fourth of all the auto '
mobiles in use today are Model T Fords. Millions of
them can be driven two, three and even five more years
with reasonable care and proper replacements. Figures
show Uiat the average life is seven years,
. Don't sacrifice your Model T, therefore, but lake it to
the Ford dealer and have him estimate on the cost of
putting it in Al shape. A very small expenditure may be
the means of giving you thousands of miles of additional
service.
For a labor charge of $20 to $25 you can have your
motor and transmission completely overhauled. This
price includes new bearings, reboring cylinders and any
other work necessary. Parts are extra.
- Valves can be ground and carbon removed for $3 to
$4. The cost of tightening all main bearings is only $6.
The labor charge for overhauling the front axle is $4.50
to $5 rear axle assembly, $5.73 to $7.
New universal joint will be installed for a labor charge
of $3. Brake shoes rclined for $1.50. Rear spring and
perches rebushed for $1.75. The cost of overhauling
the starling motor is $3. A labor charge of approxi
mately $2.50 covers the overhauling of the generator.
It will pay yon, therefore, to see your Ford dealer
'and have him put your Model T in good running order.
By doing so you will protect and maintain the invest
ment you have in your car and gel months and years of
reliable transportation at a very low cost per milo.

CHAPTER 2. r""""'
Death Over Du Wire.
I had several things to do In
town, so instead of going straight
home I dined at Galli's with my
old friend, Captain Deacon, our
chief of police. Deacon hod done
more than his share towards mak
ing the department as efficient as
any in the state and I renpect his
keen driving brain.
The meal over and my business
nttended to, I drove slowly horn;.
It was ust ten minutes past nine
when I arrived there. It was to re
member the time. ?
P o 1 y a n d r la -reclined on the
hoarth. tiho got lazily up, stretch
ed herself foro and aft and came
purring towards mo. I picked her
up and she made herself comfort
able' on my shoulder. Polyandria
is a gold-brown Angora, a mag
nificent animal, and I suppose a
am absurdly fond of her.
"No more complaints, Polyan
dria?" I inquired.
Luther MacNair, a retired pri
vate dectective of considerable rep
utation, had recently come to Mag
nolia avenue. It turned out that
ho has a passion for growing to
matoes. Polyandria got among the
vines so he said and some little
damage was done. I insisted on
paying MacNalr's estixnato of the
fingers carscslngly over the barrel
and gold-mounted butt. 1 was on
the point of breaking the weapon
when the telephone whirred
sharply. ;
As picked up the Instrument
my eye fell on the clock on the
clock on tho mantel. It was ex
actly none-thlrty.
"Hello," I called.
"Is that you, John? This is An
drew." The voice might have been
anyone's but his, bo strained- and
unnatural did It sound.
"What Is it, Andrew?"
"I want to see you . , . Come
over . . , right away. You hear
me? Right"
- The voice had stopped. Then I
heard what' might have been a
gasp. t A- queer, strnagled sort; of
gasp. Silence again. Now came a
dull thud and a rattle. .
"Andrew!"- I shouted. "What's
wrong, man ?" '
, Did I hear a faint groan?
I threw off the shackles that
bound me, flung myself through
the French window near my desk,
and plunged through the maze
of shrubbery outside. f
Trie moon had not yet risen, but
my feet quickly found the familiar
winding path and I raced through
the scented gloom toward tho Oc
den houses Suddenly, I heard the
pound of feet on the cinder walk
ahead and as I neared th walk
Jerry Ogdcn's white flannels flash
ed past into the drive.
i "Jerry!" I called. "Jerry! Jerry!!'
Instead of replying, he; went on
like the wind and I stopped, dumb
founded. He had seemed to drop
something as he passed, but the
gloom was too deep for me to be
sure of this.
The shadows of the., place swal
lowed him before I could tell
whether he had gone, on t othe
garage, which lies on the other
side of the house, or down to the
avenue, and I stood with a . queer
coldness tightening about my heart.
. . . Off again at top speed, X did
not stop until I had climbed over

tiny balcony just ; big enough to

about It.
Lucy danced in Just then, Shd
is always dancing In upon me. ?
'Look at mo instead of Polyan
dria, Uncle John, Am I all right?"
I frowned, "How should I know
whuther you are all right? Ask
Jerry."
'He's busy with his fathor. That
horrid old mlno again. Ho tele
phoned me during dinner. Sumo
thing has happened."
What?" ,
'Ho didn't say. Do you like my
new dress?"
'You'll do' I said.' "Whero are
you going?"
'To tho Chestors. I am singing
there. Jerry will come for mo after
his father has dono with him, I
suppose. I wash Mr. Ogdcn would
let him reopen that old mine. Jerry
believes he con make ot pay. I
don't know why Mr. Ogden is so
stupid
'He should know best."
'You old pepole always knmv
best! You dear old Uncle John.
What were you doing all after
noon"
"Well, 1 bought a pistol."
"Goodness! Another?" f
"It's a pistol I have been trying
to get for a long time, my deart
It belonged ot a man named Peter
son who lived n the mining town
of Torrldlty down in Skull Valley'
"TorrUUty! . Why, that's where
Mr. Ogden's mine is. Isn't it
strange that ho won't let Jerry
open it up?" I chuckled.
She kissed me again and fled.
Now that Lucy had spoken of It,
I recalled that the mine Jerry
wanted to operate some feeling
about It had arisen between father
and son was In or near Torrhlltyv
The coincidence was interesting. I
was getting up to unwrap my pur
chase when Mrs. Moffit came in.
Without Mrs. Muffle life would
be more of a labyrinth than It
and 1 an Infant In the middle of It.
"How's your head. Mr. Peebles?"
she Inquired solicitously.
"Hoad?" I murmured.
Mrs. Moffit looked disappointed;
"You had a headache when you
go up this mormg, hadn't you? 1
suppose It was that pie hint niuht.
I was bringing you a powder." Mrs.
Moffit has a powder for vrythlm?.
"Ah, yes I said. "Well. It's all
right now, and It wasn't the pie
I am very fod of Mrs. Moffit'
pies.
She shook her head disapprov
ingly. "You always say that. Mr,
Ogden phoned a while bark. He
said 1 was to ask you to mil him
up as soon as you can ) In. He
seemed terribly upset about something-
t d'tln't know you wore
home until Miss l.uey told me ju-t
now." t
I crossed to the telephone, won
dering what was the matter wih
Andrew. Instead of taking the in
strument up at once I unwrapped
the Peterson revolver and ran my
stand on outside- the library .win
dow. . The doors of the window
were ajar, but drawn draperies con
cealed the room. I was sweating
with dread. For the moment 1
couldn't have parted the curtains
to see what Andrew's boy had fled
from to save my soul. '
Desperately beating my "weak
ness back, I compelled myself to
open the window, to part the cur
tains, to look in. ,
Andrew Ogdcn sat at his desk,
his head down upon it. The light
of a reading lamp foil upon his
neck whero a cross of metal burn
ed dully.
