CHAPTER XXX.
At the moment when Vera Victoria
Cameron, being kidnapped as Vivian
Crandall, was stepping gingerly over a
stubby field toward a great man-made
bird that was to bear her aloft, she
knew net whither Schuler Smyithe was
standing in the middle of the road, wav-
ing his arms frantically to attract the
attention of an approaching car.
The car slowed up, hesitated, then
shot past him, the driver, a man with a
girl sitting beside him—evidently fear-
ing a hold-up. Schuyler stamped with
rage, but there was nothing for it but
to wait until another car came along.
Two others sped past his waiving arms
and he was about to give up in despair
when the made one more attempt.

day they heard the

a tip this morning that his daughter was
here. Now, speak up, man. Where is
she?" His big hand closed in a erush-
nearest towns as well as for New York.
Detective Durgan took up the ques-
tioning -of Sehuyler where Barr had left
off. He made copious notes on the
missing girl’s costume, the exact words
of the conversation that had passed be-
tween the four of them and a descrip-
tion of the car they were driving.
“Good heavens! Mrs. Fosdick’s se-
dan! It was stolen tonight from the

"No, I suppose not,” the doctor agreed.
“Well, ill burn up the road getting you
back to the hotel. They can send out
an alarm—telephone the police of all
the neighboring towns.”
He bent over the wheel, his keen eyes
behind gold-rimmed spectacles trained
on the road that the valiant little car
swallowed at such a breathtaking rate
of speed.
Although it was nearly 2 o'clock when
the doctor’s coupe swung into the cres-
cent-shaped direvawy before the Minne-
tonka hotel, the great sprawling build-
ing was biasing with lights. Flashlights
gleaming like fireflies, were bobbing
about grounds. Voices were hallooing
at each other from across the lake,
where men in rowboats seemed to be
dragging the dark waters on a gruesome
quest for the vanished heiress. Women,
in evening dress, scurried about in the
lanes of light from doors and windows,
calling shrill inquiries. and making fool-
ish sugfestions. A group of men were
conferring on the broad front porch
when Schuyler descended from the doc-
tor's car.
Thurston, the hotel manager, lunged
toward him. seised his arm and half
dragged him up the steps.
“Where's Miss Crandall, Smythe? For
God's sake, tell me what you've done
with her? Youn're the last person seen
with her—”
Schuyler Smythe stood blinking daz-
ediy in the Istrong light that fooled
from the entrance hall and from the
porch lanterns.
“fa this Bmythe, the chap that's been
beauing Miss Crandall around up herer
A big, frowning-browed, dark-faced man
had mine tempered with to prevent my
being alone with Miss Crandall. Quit
interrupting,” he admonished Thurston
sharply, as the hotel, manager gasped
for words strong enough to express his
emotions. “We’re wasting valuable time
for I came back here as quickly as I
could to tell you that Miss Crandall has
been kidnaped by two masked men who
overpowered me, took from me the keys
of your ear. Thurston—”
“Kidnaped! Good God!” Thurston
groaned. "Quiek, man! Which way did
the car go? What did the men look
like?”
"Here. Thurston, let me handle .this
bird." Detective Barr said eurtly. "Now,
Smythe, pull your wits together and
give us facts.”
Attracted by the commotion on the
porch, guests who had been searching
the grounds and the lake came pouring
in, the women shrilly demanding to
know what happened, the men elbowing
passages importantly, offering loud sug-
gestions before they knew what had
really happened.
Schuyler, mopping his glistening fore-
head with an already damp handker-
chief, told his story as rapidly as pos-
sible. giving the approximate location of
the hold-up, and an unavoidably vague
description of the men, due to the fact
that they had worn masks.
“All I can say is that one was tall
and thin—gaunt, I should say—and the
other stocky,” he told the detective.
"About how tall was the tall one? Six
feet? Six feet one, two?" Detective

Exercise and Tuberculosis
I disagree emphatically with these au-
thorities" on tubereulosis who recom-
mend staffing with milk and oggs, and
complete root in bed. I do not think it
is ever advisable to ever food patients,
whether they are suffering from anemia,
obesity, or. tuberculosis. Certainly, one
who is aa weak s n tubercular patient
can hardly be expected to have the pow-
er to assimilate even as much food as
the ordinary person.
Outside of the need for wholesome
foods of the right quality, the moot im-
portant thing for the tubercular pa-
tient is to gain strength. If there is any
way this can be accomplished except
through exercise, I do not know of it.
However, this exercise, as well as all
other good things, must be taken in
moderation.
The extreme, complete rest treatment
is weakened on one hand, while violent
exercise only adds to tho enervation
already existing. Too vigorous exercise
would also be injurious to the lungs,
themselves. A sensible plan of exer-
cising can be adopted with increased
movement and tensing of the muscles
each day. The patient who has been in
bed for several months start with light
exercises for the fingers and forearm
muscles. Next, the logo should be ex-
orcised while lying on the back. . Such
easy exercises can be taken as raising

ler Smythe.
"A lot'of us would like to form a

guests spoke up eagerly. "We ought to
be able to dig up enough pistols to pro-
tect ourselves—"
"Clarence!" a woman sereamed. “You
shan’t go a step! Those awful kid-
napers would kill you!”
Over the hubbub Thurston shouted:
"All you people had better go to bed.
The police have this thing la hand now.
They'll know how to handle it, and they
won't want a lot of amateur assistance.
By the way, Smythe, how did you hap-

around the room and finally out of doors
increasing ths distance only a few steps

No exercise should be taken at a

The tubercular patient needs strength,
and the only way he ean got it is by
sensibly exercising.
