But hope is the lever that moves the world onward, and the faint hope that had dawned on my thick night was too dear and bright a one to leave me crushed again by my old despondency, and I felt that there must be some way of untangling the problem. If the wall of honor hedged me in on every side, I would know the fact to be true before I accepted it.
Will you see that Buster is sent up to my laboratory immediately?" She nodded. It was evident that Buster was a great pet with her and that it was with difficulty she kept from smoothing his silky coat. "You you won't hurt Buster?" she pleaded. "No. Trust me. More than that, if there is any possible way of untangling this mystery, I shall do it." Mrs. Blake looked rather than spoke her thanks.
A bearskin-coated policeman stepped prominently to the fore, watch in hand. Men hurried among the dogs, rousing them to their feet, untangling their traces, straightening them out.

If my property is in such a mess as this I'll set the lazy mountaineers at work clearing it up before I'll set foot on it. Hey! What hit you, Brown Eyes?" "A bullet." "I heard it. I mean I heard the shot, and, like the hero I am, I ran to the rescue, but got all tangled up," explained Hippy. "Didn't you hear our shots?" demanded Anne. "I heard 'em, but I was too busy untangling myself to answer.
There was only one dissenting voice in the general enthusiasm that reigned on board at the thought that they were now able to proceed, and that was the professor's. He had been untangling a forgotten rare specimen of deep-sea lobster from his net, when the explosion came.
In some alarm the two women ran to her parlor, then to the boudoir. Here they found her asleep on the divan, attired in the gown she had worn since the evening before, now crumpled and creased, the proof positive of a restless, miserable night. Her first act after awakening and untangling the meshes in her throbbing, uncomprehending brain, was to send for Quinnox.
The ways in which the doctor can be of use in untangling the facts in many forms of crime have become so numerous that the profession of medical detective may almost be called a specialty."
