(Continued from page four.),
iisettling, or away rrom some
1 ping. Why the devil couldn’t he
ave waited a second, and tipped
wink'to a feller? Yes, and why
i >e deuce didn’t Rupert buck up
j nd do something or other? An
f tele, even fatter than Charlie.
\ id invited him to spend a month
unging and lolling in Leicester
1 ire. Charlie began to wish he
id accepted that invitation. At
lis moment, had he done so, he
ould probably have been lying on
b * beautifully cushioned settee, with
ven luscious courses inside him
, ith his feet slightly higher than
is head, and with a pretty, plump
;usin reading his palm. But in
ead he was standing irresolutely
ider an unlit lamp post on the
inges of Newcastle station. Dash
all. why shouldn’t one be fat?
And. while he comolained in his
md. Rupert sudden# left the lit
' ? knot of people, and came run
ins towards him.
“They're taMn~ the fellow—” he
pgan, and abruptly stopped.
rExactlv ” nodded Charlie. -He’s
imoosed!”
„ “No—hgis he? That's a nul
.. mce!” exclaimed Rupert.
“I wonder?” mused Charlie.
Rupert shook his head reprov
“You f’an bes* it th»» momenf
hu want to, old chap,” he said,
, ;ut for my part. I’m getting so
darned interested in this queer mix
up that I’ve got to follow it to the
end—”
“Yes, yes, I’m following it with
you,” interrupted Charlie, “but at
moments I give way to depression
You try a lamp post that doesn t
lamp for company!”
“Well, don’t develop self-pity, or
you’ll be done for.” retorted Rup
ert. “Look here, we must find that
fellow! Where did he go? And
when, and why? Tejl me!”
Charlie related the incident,
briefly.
“Right,” said Rupert. “I’ll go
after him. You wait here—”
“What, am I to spend my whole
holiday by this lamo post?” inter
posed Charlie. “Nothing doing, old
sport! I’ll go after him, and you
can wait here! How am I going
to get my fat down if you do all
the running about?”
But further discussion was saved
by the abrupt return of the truant.
Brown came staggering towards
them as though he had just run In
a Marathon race.
“She's—she’s gone again!” he
panted.
“Who?” demanded Charlie.
“What—you don’t mean the
girl?” exclaimed Rupert
Brown gulped miserably. He was
suffering from a dozen emotions,
prominent among which wrere ela
tion suddenly c short and a sense
once more of failure. He was also
suffering from shortness of breath. ]
“Yes. I saw her!” he gasped.
“You did?”
"Just now. Over there!” He
pointed vaguely. “In the distance,
she was, but—somehow—I recog
nized her at once. There’s some
thing about her—oh, well, never
mind. I don’t know what I’m say
ing, and that’s a fact. And now
! she’s gone again! Have you ever
I seen a fool? Well, I’m one! Look
at me!”
“Cheer up—you’re not a fool,”
retorted' Rupert, kindly, “and if
you'll Just tell us exactly—”
"Yes, I’m telling you. I saw her
I in the distance. I went after her.
; But she was running, too. She got
j to another platform, and jumped
j in a train just as it was going. I
tried to get on it, too, but was too
late. That’s me, that it. Always
too late!”
"Yes, but I don’t see what you’re
worrying about,” observed Charlie,
j “She’s safe now, anyway.”
“She may be, and she mayn’t
j be,” replied Rupert, thoughtfully.
! “That little chap wasn't dead, you
: know. He was—drugged.”

SERIOUSLY SPEAKING 1
Let’s be really serious for a moment. What makes
!; a bank really sound? It is CONFIDENCE to be sure,
but what establishes confidence?
'I -
We’ll tell you. It is the men who conduct the
bank. Our officers are courteous and obliging, con
servative, friendly. Our Directors know what is go
ing on inside the bank. It is their business to know,
and they DO know.
Our stockholders are among the solid citizens of
this community. Our Patrons are people of influence
and worth. All these beget confidence, the one thing
that builds up a strong bank.
