It's time now for Mr. Keene, Tracer of Lost Persons. Ladies and gentlemen, Aniston and Colinels present Mr. Keene, Tracer of Lost Persons, one of the most famous characters of American fiction in one of Radio's most thrilling dramas.
Tonight and every Thursday at the same time, the famous old investigator takes from his file and brings to us one of his most celebrated missing persons cases. The Knight's Case is entitled The Case of the Melody of Murder.
If you suffer from the pains of a headache, neurodus, or neurogeal triannicine, you'll be amazed at what it does. Many people who have taken it will tell you I'm quite sure that its effectiveness and incredibly fast action are simply astounding.
Aniston is like a doctor's prescription. That is, it contains not just one but a combination of medically proven, active ingredients. Many people listening to me now have at some time or other had an envelope containing anisone tablets given them, either by their dentist or a physician.
These people know it gives incredibly fast relief. So if you want really fast relief from headache, neuritis or neurojapane, try anisone. For most effective relief, use only as directed. It is spelled A-N-A-C-I-N, and you can get it at any drug counter.
Now for Mr. Keene and the case of the melody of Murder. Our scene opens in a midtown apartment which is occupied at the moment by two people. One of them, a very attractive young girl, is standing at the piano, listening to her companion who's playing for her.
But as she watches the expert fingers slide lightly over the keys, she doesn't realize that those same fingers will very shortly become an instrument of horror. Lovely piece you're playing. One of my favorites. I was thinking of including it my debutary title next week.
