_Workers_, employers, wives, all _ready_ to
commend it. _Friday's_ supply gone,"
writes a druggist, to whom a big shipment
was made last week.
USE DENTO
A genuine, safe, pleasing paste for the
teeth, prepared and sold only by the
Auer Dental Company, New York.
"Imperative all agents leave ship. Wonder-workers ready Friday," read
Fleck. "That's surely a message, a warning to Germany's agents to get
off some ship or ships before they are destroyed. You, Miss Strong, have
heard old Otto talk about the wonder-workers, whatever they are, being
nearly ready. I guess he means bombs--bombs to blow up American
transports. This message says they will be ready Friday."
"And to-morrow's Friday," said Jane.
CHAPTER XIII
THE SEALED PACKET
"Is this Miss Strong?"
Jane, her face blanching, held the receiver in wavering hands for a
moment before she could muster courage to answer. She had recognized
Frederic Hoff's voice speaking. What could he want with her now?
"It is Miss Strong," she managed to answer.
"This is Frederic Hoff. May I come in for a moment? It is most
important."
Again Jane hesitated. Frederic was the last person in the world she felt
like seeing just at this moment. Only five minutes before she had
arrived home from Chief Fleck's office.
