"I don't know what it means i Glynn," he said slowly, "but we have been followed ever since we left the I restaurant. A cab with two men in it' has been on our heels all the way, I turned when we did, and has stopped I now a little way behind us." ' "Is that it?" .said Glynn .softly.' "It's certainly worth looking into. ' Let's walk back and interview these- gents in the cab." i Glynn jumped out, followed by Jimmy, and an obviously surprised I Subardar was (luickly down beside' them. , ".Subardar," said Gllynn sliarply. "We arc being followed and I'm go- ! ing to see who by. Better stick close."! "Followed," exclaijned the Sub-j ardar, and went on in evident alarm. "There is something here that is not' good sahib. Better that you drive on \ quickly, and get away from any who follow. They must mean ill." "I'm going to find out," said Glynn doggedly. "Jimmy, lead on to your, cab. Get round be.side the diiver and hti ready to lug him out neck and] crop if he tries to drive off. Come j on." 1 Jiinmj led the «ay back, (Jlynn be- side him and the Subardar, still protesting, clo.se on their heels. The other cab waited, and a man jieer- ing out watching their approach turned and spoke a word to his com- panion with evident satisfaction. Both men were Indians and in police uniform. One was ineparing to step out when (ilynn arrived beside the' call, and Doyle (|uietly took post be- ' side the driver. "Gel back and sit down," said Glynn with ominous quiet, and the' pistol gleaming in his hand and j pointing straight into the cab gave; emiihasis to his oitler.

Chris(lie*s Arrowreots "Is it the tahib F'.iiman who speaks," answered one of the men, d'ld before Glynn could ar.swer, the Subardar hissed a warning in his ear. "They are in police uniform, sahib, but they are no police. It is a trick anil 1 was warned to beware of such a triok." "Never mind who 1 am," Glynn an- swered the man in the cab. "What do you want? Why do you follov/ nie .'" "We are of the Police, sahib," said the other. "It is an order that we find you and bring you to the police oflice." "A trick, sahib," breathed the Sub- ardar warniiigly. "Get away i|uick- ly." "Go back to our cab," said Glynn in a low voice over his shoulder. "Turn it across the street, drive back anil halt opposite here. Have the driver ready to go on quickly when we turn across to you." He turned again to the cab as the Subardar, after an instant's hesitation, hur- ried off to the other cab. "There is nothing for which the Police have a right to command me," he said. "You may tio back to the station and tell them I said so." "But Klliman sahib," said the man eeagerly. "Will you not drive back | with us that the matter may be ex- plained to you." ".So that's the trick," thought Elli- nian. "I get in there with two of them â€" and I wonder where I'd get out." He saw his own cab coming down the other side of the street, and as ii slowed and halted just opposite, he called to Doyle, "Be ready, Jim- my, .^fter me, straight acro.ss the road." He darted round the back of the cab and dashed across the street, Jim- my following and overtaking him be- fore they reached their cab. It be- gan to move as the two leaped in, and was racing away and out of sight before the other could negotiate the traffic and make the turn to fol- low. CHAPTER XVI ENTER THE POIJCE Glynn's failure to arrive at the hotel where he would have stayed if he had not been diverted from it by the instructions the Subardar had conveyed to him, had created more disturbance that he could have gues- .sed. There twaited him at the hotel, an Indian gentleman of the Prince's household at Napalata, who had given his name at the reception desk andj asked that Glynn should be informed as soon as he arrived that one was waiting who desired a meeting, and I also instructed that he should he \ told the moment lynn arrived. When | it had passed the time when the cars should have brought the passengers from the liner on arrival at the drome', the Prince's official went to; make further enquiries. I He was astonished to hear that the other passengers had arrived some] time before, the liner having landed! ahead of time, but that no Sahib' Elliman had come to the hotel. The official waited impatiently a little' longer, and then feeling vaguely dis- turbed, made further and urgent en- quiry. He got in touch with Airways offices, and after a time was told the hotel at which three passengers had asked to get down. To this hotel ' he telejihoned, only to be told no one of the name of Elliman was there, but if one arrived he would be given any message. Actually Glynn was in the other hotel at that moment, hut the denial of his being there was in ac- cordance with the supposed orders he had given through the Subardar. Now thoroughly alarmed, the Prince's officer went sti-aight to tho Police, and put before their chief the main facts of the case and his own fears of some foul play being at the bottom of Glynn's failure to turn up. The Chief knew all about the Nap- alata crisis, and it needed no more than a plain statement that if Glynn failed to reach Napalata by the next night, and that the whole question of Ihe Prince's successio.i depended upon this, to set the wheels of the Police machine rapidly turning. Under the personal cnquiiies of iho l)oliee at the hotel where (ilynn had gone, the recejition clerk told the truth, and the additional fact that since he had been telephoned, 'he three passengers had gone out to- gether to dine but had said nothing of where they were Kt)ing. From .Mrways, the Chief learned t^ie nam- es of Nnrah Seaman and Jimmy 11 SALADA Delicious Quality GREEN TEA lis Also in Black and Mixed Doyle but could tell nothing further than that they had come by the Air Mail from Ixindon. "If the three are together," said the Chief to the agitated official, "they will be the easier to trace. I have set men to search the good hotels and restaurants, and to report here." "It is this Indian known "as the Subardar who is the most alarming to me," said the official. "It was he who told the hotel to say that Elli- man Sahib was not there, who arriv- ed with them and went out with them again. He is not known to me. I am afraid, greatly afraid." The telephone rang, and the Chief answered it, listened and after a sharp question and answer or two, he gave his orders to intensify, the search, and if Glynn were found, to bring him in, under arrest and by force if need be; and also most parti- cularly to bring also any who were with him, including the Indian Sab- ardar. The last named was to be brought under arrest in any case, and under the closest guard. (To Be Continued.) Sees Goitre As a Menace Urges Prevention â€" Dr. Sin- clair Describes Danger to O.M.A. Toronto â€" Prevention of goitre means vastly more than eliminating deformities of the neck, and there is a Tst army of peopia wlio, throi gii no fault of there own, are a heavy burden to th-; n:< p.iyer, while oi.h(rs are a menace to society and still more unfit to carry on their usual vocat- ions. Dr. Alexander Sinclair, Sault Ste. Marie, told the Ontario M.dical Associati -Vi 'cccntly. Reading a paper on goitre preven- tion Dr. Sinclair stressed the need of remedies for thyroid disease in ord- er to prevent human suffering in the province. The thyroid gland produc- es thyroxin an active princijile of which is B staple compound of iodine, essential for mental and phsical dev- elopment. Iodine is especially neces- sary required for foetal life, during the age of adolescence and by the pre- gnant mother, he said. .\ di.scased th- yroid will interfere with the proper supply of iodine, and abnormal cond- ditions will result. Extreme varieties of goitre, and di.sea.ses like tuberculosis and syphilis are associated with or are the out- come of .simple goitre. Dr. Sinclair continued Besides these conditions many physical and mental conditions result from simple goitre. These are evidenced in cretins, (dwarfs) deaf- mutes, mental and physical dilicienc- ies and subnormal and backward chil- dren and the insane. Simple goitre could be practically eliminated, however, Dr. Sinclair bel- ieved, by providing for its control during the vital periods of foetal life, pregnancy, and around the age of pu- berty. At these times prevention should be the task of the individual physician, he said, but added that pre- vention during childhood and adoles- cence should be a public health mea- sure. The Laughing Man (Manchester Guardian) A German who has been visiting London has made the Interesting dis- covery, which he discloses in an ar- ticle in Ihe "Berliner Tageblatt" that "the British laugh too much." As soon as they begin a serious conver- satlon with a German thoy turn the talk into easier channels with a laugh." From that he deduces that ".superHciallty Is the vice ot the Eng- lish" (he has evidently never heard of the French aphorist's contention that "gravity is a mysterious carriage of the body invented to coiiceal defects ot the mind") and that "humor" is the cloak for that superficiality. It might also be a form of polite- ness. There are some point.s about modern Germany on which a modern Englishman could hardly touch at all without his opinions becoming so serio'^j as to be possibly unwelcome to a citizen of that country, and in casual intercourse It Is just as well to avoid the awkward topic and the unwelcome treatment of it. So, if the Englishman talking to the German is accused ot too much risibility, one excuse for him might be in the words of Figaro: "I make haste to laugh for fear ot being obliged to weep." In any event the general charge that we laugh too much Is in curious contrast to the proposition (at least as old as Froissart) that the English take their pleasures sadly. And there was also a mediaeval Latin proverb which asserted that "the English race is the best at weeping and the worst ai laughing. Evidently we have changed a good deal since the distant days ot what must have been a ra- ther doubtfully merry England. Probably many of us do today adopt a deliberate lightness of approach which is not in the manner ot our German neighbors; the English sol- dier in the trenches displayed it, sometimes to the real bewilderment ot those neighbors at the time when they were also enemies, it is, if you like and in a catch-phrase of the mo. ment, an aspect of "the escape from reality." But it does not necessarily mean that reality is not being seri- ously tackled under the surface. And gravity itself, as La Rochefoucauld observed, is sometimes a mere cloak for incompetence. F astest , Best-Seller Little, Brown and Company rises to dispute the claim of Hervey Allen's ".Anthony Adver.se" to the laurels of the "fastest-selling" book of all times. Their claimant is "If Winter Comes,' by A. <i Hutchinson, which, without a book club adoption, piled up iii ten and a half months a sale of 359,3i)G co|iies, its biggest month having been December, 11121, had the amazing sale of 10i»,092 copies. Anthony Adverse's sales for ten months, omitting the co- pies used by the Book-of-the-Month Club, totalled 333,359 copies, its big- gest month being December 1933, when the sale was 53,073 copies. However, considering the ditference in business conditions between 19'2l an;' 1933, the sale of "Anthony Ail verse" is the more extraordinary of the two, especially as it was that rt- rity in publishing, a three-dollar no- vel.

Uitt belli*. Tie Will wonders never ceaise! Today I ran acro-is a driver of a cat who had forced another car into the ditch and didn't have an excuse to offer..' "1 admit it was my fault," he said. "1 iloii't know how it happened. 1 must have been going too fast." This man's attitude was most rofresldnj:; usually neither party to an accident will accept any part of the blame Of course, I knew what the trouble was. It happened to be Sunday and the man who caused the accident was driving at a rate of speed faster than hn had been accu.stomed to during the A-eek. He forgot that six days a week he drove at a twenty or twenty-five miles an hour around town and that all of hi.s motions were keye«l to that .•^peed. Out on the highway, going about forty, he couldn't think fast enough. He intended to edge over rnd give the other chap rooni on the road to pass, but his city-tiainod .sense of speeil and distance diceivcd him. That'.< the case with lots of ilrivtrs. The minute they go faster than their usual -ate of speed, they're lo.:;. Sooner or later in "highway" traffic they'll encounter a siHiation they've never faced before and they don't know what to do ... in time" to pre- vent an accident. Th» moral is, of course, not to drive too fast- I have been on the job long enough to know that no speed over 35 is safe, anii lots of drivers can't drive even that fast without danger of meeting up with a situation they can't handle. Well, I'll be seeing vou ^ '
