In "The Fourth Estate" the ?
effectiveness of newspapers in
fearlessly exposing political
and judicial corruption and the I
safeguard they arc to the public
are interestingly and convinc
ingly set forth. A-young, earnest |
newspaper writer and editor is
the central Jigure, and his bat
tles with a dishonest United
States judge against big odds and
against the cunningly under
handed machinations of the law
yer lobbyist Dupuy Jorm one of
the most valuable as well as
most entertaining pieces of fic
tion of the day. That the false
judge's daughter, the reigning
beauty in the fashionable life of
u leading city, should play a
sensational part in this gripping
story of strong honest men and
of strong dishonest men, fight
ing each other in a war of dol
lars, evidences the romantic
possibilities of the narrative.
This is a story of today's
America, a fact story torn out of
life's book, dealing with the most
vital issues that confront every
one of us. Romance and humor
vie with stirring action for su
premacy in this instructive and
fascinating novel, which tcachcs
that the path of duty is the path
to love and happiness and that
in success, nobly won, lie re
wards of greater and more last
ing value than in a triumph ig
nobly and more easily gained.
CHAPTER I
Burke wild thore were three es
tates In parliament, but In thu re
porters' tallery yonder there sat a
Fourth hJtate more Important far
than they all.? Curlyle.
IIE silcuce iu the managing
editor's room of the Daily
Advance was abruptly broken
by the entrance of IJoss Mc
through a private door. Ills
eighteen years of active newspaper
work In a career extending from cub
reporterhood to his present important
office had drilled into him the necessity,
even the habit, of constant action,
quick thought, keeu and accurate per
ception and readiness for emergencies.
He hastily threw off his coat, glanced
at several papers laid on his desk
while he was out at dinner and seated
himself in his managerial chair. He
wrote a few rapid words on a pad of
paper at his right hand as he pushed
a buttou with his left to summon an
office boy.
"Any one here while 1 was gone?"
McIIenry queried sharply as the boy
entered.
"Yes. sir. Woman whose boy was
pinched wants to keep It out of th'
paper. Been outside two hours. She's
slttiu' outside an' bawls an' bawls an'
bawls." ?
"Tell her we're printing a newspa
per and I've left for the night."
"Then there was a few phone calls.
We bandied 'em all 'cept th' last. lie

wanted tor see
you."
Mc Ilonry im
mediately be
came interested.
"What'd you
tell him?" be
asked, rising.
"That you was
to tfc' theayter."
The managing
editor picked up
a Congressional
Directory and
shied It forcibly
at the lad.
"Well, next
time, young man,
you tell him I've
"n ntira you ten lust stepped

night editor's room. Nolan; remember
his name? Nolan. He's the new owner."
"Cheese it. another owner. Nobody
keeps us long. do they?"
"No." responded .Mc Henry laconieal
iy. "Like eertaiu other luxuries, no
body keeps us long. We're too ex
pensive, Durkin."
The boy grinned and hurried away
to summon the night editor at Mellcn
ry's eommand and to dispose of the
"bawling" woman.
McIIenry seated himself and turned
to the ever ready telephone at the
right hand corner of his desk:

"Hello, Miss Stowei Get me Mr.
Nolan? Mr. Miclmel Nolan? on the wire
right away."
As the managing editor hung up the
receiver Moore, the night editor, en
tered carrying a bundle of galley
proofs In his left hand, a schedule in
his right.
"Well. Moore, what have you got for
part 1?" asked McTIenry.
The night editor repeated rapidly In
a dead Mat monotonous voice:
"Thirty-live columns of ails. Tele
graph editor's hollering for twenty col
umns. lie just got a couple of nice
flashes? one from Pittsburg about a
man eloping with his daughter-in-law;
very tine people. Another tlrst class
murder from St. Louis. Local has
twenty-six scheduled, sports are very
heavy, bowling, lights, checkers, and
Kentucky's shut down on racing; they
want two pages. We've got a tip that
Morgan has the asthma. Steel will
probably open soft on Monday."
Mcrienry took down the telephone
receiver and held It expectantly at his
ear. lie took the proofs from Moore's
hand and began looking them over.
They contained important articles
which had been set up, but which he
had not previously seen.
"Hello, there's a live one." he sud
denly exclaimed, glanclug over one of
r.
McHenry turned to the telephone.
tne sheets. "Bill, I'd like to run that
one. Senator Deering dead yet?"
"No, not yet."
The managing editor was disgusted.
"Pshaw!" he exclaimed. "I'll bet the
old codger dies for the afternoon pa
pers. We're having rotten luck lately."
The telephone rang.
"Hello! Who's this?" cried McHenry
savagely. But his voice changed ab
ruptly to Its most sugary tones.
"Oh, Mr. Nolan, this Is Mr. McHen
ry. Yes; why, the boy said I'd gone to
the theater. He's new to newspaper
oflices. Yes, Indeed. He doesn't know
we newspaper men have little time for
theaters? no. indeed? ba, ha! 1 was
downstairs in the press room all the
time? yes, indeed; trouble with the
roller on cylinder 5 of the color
press, and I happen to have a bit of a
mechanical turn of mind? yes. Indeed.
Anything I can do for you, sir? Hope
we may have the pleasure of showing
you over the otlice? your ofllce? pretty
soon. Yes. sir. Tonight? Yes, any
time. We're always here. Yes, sir.
Thank you."
He hung up the receiver and re
verted to his natural voice. "It's the
new boss. Moore. 'S coming down to
night."
"I wonder if that means more
changes?" observed the night editor
as be tilled his pipe.
McHenry sighed.
"Ain't a man who gets Into this
business a sucker?"
The night editor smiled grimly.
"Wonder what kind of a Joke is this
Nolan anyway?" he asked.
The night editor's brow wrinkled.
"All I know Is that he's a Colorado i
miner with a hill of ore all his own." ;
He glanced over the night editor's
schedule. "What Is this T? T? golf or j
politics?"
"Taft? both; golf 2 down? conference
with Aldrich."
McHenry snorted.
"Gosh, the White House Is dead since
Teddy left!" He pointed to ths sched
ule. "What's this? 'Baltimore, one col- |
umn.' "
"Double divorce. They exchanged
partners."
"Good people?"
"Not much."
"Fifty words '11 be enough. Dead
heavy? stupid paper," grunted the man
aging editor.
Mellenry -rang for the boy, Durkln,
and on his belated arrival sent him to
summon the city editor. "What you
got?" saluted McHenry as the editor
arrived.
Downs, the city editor, went straight
to the point.
"Are you going to use that follow up
story about Judge Bnrtelniy throwing
the Lansing iron
company into a
receivership?" lie
queried.
"I dunno. Any
kicks 011 this
morning'sstory V
"1 should say ;
yes ? telephone
Kolng all day."
McHeury turn
ed and pounded
the ilesk with his K
list.
"If they kicked P
on that they'd get j
our Jobs 011 this."
He pointed nt toe
proof of tbe new "Double divorcc.
Baric] my story

taken from Moore. "All the same, tho
judicial ermine In getting rather soiled
these days. It makes tue sore jo think
of what they're pulling off on the
federal bench. He's bad nil through,
that Bartelmy. Whose story is it
Brand's?"
"Yep," responded the city editor.
"By heaven, he is a newspaper man."
"That's w hy he won't last in this of
fice," put In Moore sarcastically.
"Yep." supplemented the city editor.
McHenry 's face took ou a resigned
expression as lie said: "Well, we'll
have to pass it up." He paused. "It's i
likely to be libelous."
lie laid aside the proof sheet and re- 1
suuied his perusal of the schedule of 1
articles intended to be used in the j
uext morning's paper.
"How about divorces?" McHenry
asked suddenly, raising his head to >
the city editor.
"The Sarrup divorce Is up again.
Two new corespondents named." He
pointed them out amoug the photos.
McHenry drew u few lines on one
of the photos and rang for the boy.
"Bring me an artist, Durkiu," be or
dered. The artist soon appeared.
"Here," spoke up the managing ed- j
itor. "take these corespondents and ?
run 'em with the two you had yester
day, but fix those up different. Put n J
hat on one and the other iu low neck. ;
and put Sarrup himself iu the middle
witli a dado of hearts around." Mc
Henry chauged Itis mind. "No; make
it a big question mark of cupids and
the caption 'Which of These Women
Does This Man I.ove?" Yes, and frame
In his wife too. Three columns."
"Yes, sir," responded the artist,
starting away with the photos.
But McHenry called him back.
"Hey!" he cried. "Make thut 'Which
of These Beautiful Women Doe3 This
Man Love?' "
The artist bowed in acquiescence
and escaped.
McHenry took up uuother photo
graph. ^
"11a, what a beauty!" he said en
thusiastically. "What's she been do
ing?"
"She Is Judith Bartelmy, the Judge's
daughter. She gave n reception to
day," answered Downs, the city ed
itor.
"High society all there as usual, i
suppose?" uiused MeHenry. "The i
Barteluiys are au old family, and 1
they've held on to sonic of their
money. Here, Downs," he went on,
"play her up for two? no, three col
umns. Maybe it will square it with
the judge for what we did to him in '?
the paper this morning. You explain |
to an artist"
"All right."
"The new boss, Nolan, is coming
down to look us over tonight," added
MeHenry.
"Wonder where we'll all be working
next week?" was the city editor's re
ply over his shoulder as he quickly
made his exit.
The boy came iu and laid a card on
the managing editor's desk.
"Miss Judith Bnrtclmy!" exclaimed
MeHenry as he glanced at It. "Well,
what do you think of that, Moore?"
"It's a kick sure, and"?
"By the way," Interjected MeHenry
deliberately, "this girl, Judith Bartel
my, Isn't she engaged to Wheeler
Brand?"
"Seems to me I've heard something
of the sort," assented Moore vaguely.
"Well, same here, and Brand wrote
that story this morning showing up
her father, the judge, as a trickster of
the worst, most dangerous sort. Now
the girl comes to this office? probably
to defend her dad. Say, Moore"? the
managing editor was becoming excited
?"things are getting warm around
here. Brand certainly had his nerve
with lilm to band such a roast to bis
prospectlie father-in-law."
McIIenry turned abruptly to one side
and reached for bis coat, which be
quickly donned.
"Show her In," he called to the boy.
Moore hastily retreated from the
room as Judith Eortelmy entered,
leaving the judge's daughter alone
with the managing editor. McHenry
bad long fluttered himself that be bad
met many attractive women In bis
time, but as be rose to meet Judith
Bartelmy and surveyed this fash
ionably gowned young woman he
iuade a mental note that she surpassed
them all. Iler blond features were of
distinctly patrician cast. Iler blue
eyes bad the magnetic qualities so en
vied by the mauy less fortunate wo
men. and the pure whiteness of her
finely curved chin and neck was ad
vantageously revealed by the low cut
collar of her princess gown of wine
colored silk which clung to a figure
that celebrated artists had pronounced
unusual lu Its symmetry.

Cures that last are cures that tell.
To thoroughly know the virtues of a
medicine you must investigate the
cures und see if they prove perma

test, and plenty of proof exists right
here in this locality. People who test
ifled years ago to roller from backache
kidney and urinary disorders, now de
clare that relief was peTmauent and
the cure perfect. Can any Alaskan
sufferer longer doubt the evidence?
J. Prenatt, 311 Third Ave., N.t Se
attle, Wash., says: "The relief I re
ceived from Doan's Kidney Pills over
three years ago, has been permanent
and I, therefore, cheerfully confirm
the public statement I gave In favor
of the remedy at that time. For two
years I had attacks of backache and
my kidneys were so weak that the
least cold I contracted settled In them
making rny condition worse. Doan's
Kidney Pills promptly disposed of the
pains In my back and regulated the
passages of the kidney secretions. A
the present time there is not a symp
tom of my former trouble remaining.
I advise anyone afflicted with kidney
complaint to give Poan's Kidney Pills
a trial."
