“The garage is round the corner just ahead sir." the porter went on to the man who still sat at the

wheel. “Shall I take the car, or will you?"

"I will thanks," the younger man replied.

A minute or so later he rejoined his middle-aged companion and the two of them followed the porter through the conservatory which constituted the entrance hall of the club. to the lift.

Their bedrooms were in the front of the house on the second floor, and overlooked a typically English scene. In the distance. the gentle line of the hills framed the view; the lawn and gardens in the fore- grciiiid had taken generations to producc.

superintendent Ducros was far moie in harmony with the conven- tional idea of a detective. He was a man of fifty. and if his flannel suit had not been cut by such an expensive tailor as that of his junior colleague. one can advance four excellent resasons-a wife and three children. Nevertheless, his intelligence and experience were such that few would have question- ed that lie was-what he purported to be-a business man who had come doivn to Moss-ford for a. pleas- ant week-end.

The younger of’ ihe two men, Arthur Doiiimore, wore a ‘well-cut Ellll of plus fours-a. garment which either does or does not suit a man. He was nearly six feet in height, with the build of a Rugger forward, and. for one in his profession, al- most dangerously good-looking. But there was far more than mere good

Lose 2 Pounds a Week

Her favorite suit, but it won't stay fastened-so many pounds has Mrs. Plump gained!

And no wonder-after a lazy sum- mer of porch life, too many high- calory foods.

For if you eat 1,000 more calories a day than you need, you gain 2 pounds a week. And often just a few changes in your eating habits will give that matronly look.

By switching from tomato juice (50 calories a cup) to 6 prunes (50 each)-by taking a fudge sundae (400) instead of ginger ale (66)—- why you add nearly 600 calories to your day's iotali

But you can switch back again as easily. Follow your calcry chart and LOSE 2 pounds a week.

Are you tempted to have for lunch a cup of creamed corn soup, a pork chop, if; cup mashed pota- toes. l’: cup of chocolate pudding? Think hard. there are 700 calories in that meal.

Try instead 1 cup consomme, a" lamp chop, 2 chopped beets. 4/5 cup apple snow. Only 275 calories --and satisfying and healthful, too.

‘to the right of the door leading into the conservatory, and while they sipped their tea they watched the animated and amusing scene. Many of those present had run out from town; it was simple for a mun with Dlucrosls experience to differentiate between tne residents and the castial visitors.

"That's Monty Fernandez," Du- cros said quietly to Dalliinore, "who just ivcnt through. Trial/ll be his offce in there, I shoulrint \v0n- der."

"One of the syndicate?“

Ducros nodded. "And the man- ager. He's practically running the place. He's worked with Flash uardew before. both here and America."

"What makes you so certain that Cardew will come here?"

"I‘m not certain—but it's odds-On that he will. He's got to lie low somewhere-he must know that we want him. Anyway, _it was the Chief's suggestion that we should come—n0t _mine "

me. "I didn't ask you. For myself, I prefer a week-end at home to all

this——-" His words ended in an exclusive gesture. “But when duty calls!" the

younger man said with a smile. “Seriously, though, the Chief must have had something more definite on his mind. Why this week-end particularly?"

"The Chief doesn't tell all that he knows. and some of the junior mem- bers of the Force might follow his example with advantage. Here's Flash Cardews photo, RIIYWRY—-'5Id2 face and full."

"Nasty-looking specimen!" Dolli- more said. "But I thought they didn't let these out of the files?"

"They don't-that's a copy made for us from the American police records.”

“THERE'S A LOVELY GIRL" _...___._______.

Dollimore looked long and care- fully at the photographs: “I'd know him." he said.

"You might," the older man re- plied. “But I don't suppose ‘he's wandering about like that. He was an actor at one time and prob- ably suspects that we have these pictures of him."

"I don't think he's here now," Dollimore said a few minutes later after he had glaneedcasualiy round

Ducros contemplated his junior 00119311116 grimly: “If you've finish- ed your tea," he said, "we might as well have a stroll through the grounds and get the lie of the land."

"You're the boss," said Dollimore. "But she is a peach. I wonder who the ohab with them is? n15 back ls turnvi to us. unfortunately."

“Not Flash Cardew-and he's the man we're interested in." Ducros pointed out.

Commenting on the texture and whiteness of her bread, Mrs. james McKay of Newcastle, N.B. said: “There never: was whiter braid with a finer tex- ture than that made with Robin Hood Flour. I love to knead my ; bread, for its soft springy elus- ticity makes baking a joy." Ten years ago friends advised Mrs. McKay to try Robin Hood Flour, and she is glad she did so. Here are some of her reasons: "For one thing I do not have to keep more than one kind of flour in the pantry," said Mrs. McKay. "Robin Hood is an all-purpose flour-as good for cakes and pastry as it is for bread and buns. Also, I get more bread from a big of Robin Hood Flour and

the last loafis as moist and full of flavour as the first."

“The proof of the pudding is in the eating"—so the proof of the quality of flour is in the using of it, and surely nothing can be added to the above remarks made by a good home baker re gal-ding the quality of Robin Hood Flour. Order it from your dealer. Remember, if after two bakings you are not absolutely satisfied, your money will be re- ' funded, plus 10% extra in cash.
