The Judas Clock

Listen to you and listen to present Inner Sanctum mysteries. Good evening, friends of the Inner Sanctum. This is Raymond, your host at the squeaking door. Come in, won't you? Were you shivering?

Cold? Oh. Well, don't let it throw. You just remember that many are cold, but few are frozen. Well, our story to be different tonight is about murder, murder and a clock. So, if you've got little time to kill, let's do it now, huh?

Why, Mr. Raymond, nobody can really kill time. Well, maybe not, but you certainly can frighten it, didn't you ever hear of an alarmed clock? Mr. Raymond, someday you're going to choke on one of those puns.

And won't that be nice, Mary? Then you can revive me with guess what, lift and tee. Oh dear, must this go on week after week? Why must I talk to the only person in the world who doesn't know the proper uses of Lipton tea?

Oh, don't say that. It isn't used to revive people. At least not in the way you mean it. Of course, lots of folks do find that Lipton's makes the day seem brighter. Yes, it sort of helps them through their housework to sit down now and then between meals as well as at dinner and supper and enjoy a cup of Lipton tea.

And the reason why Liptons is so satisfying is because of that one little word, brisk, B-R-I-S-K. Tea experts say that Liptons has a brisk flavor, which means that it always tastes tangy and bracing. It's never flat or wishy-washy.

So folks ask for Lipton tea at your grocers. You just don't know how good tea can be till you've tried Liptons. Yes, and when you leave the grocers, step next door to the clockmaker shop and ask him for The Judas Clark.
