GILLETT'S market gardeners' 'I phne to meet him in order to clear BYNOPSIS Michael -,Borde, 40, unmarried, born and bred In a Birmingham slum, is pow a wealthy motor manufacturer, Qne day he visits the countryside around his old home and rescues Daphne Eden from a menacing tramp, He falls in love 'and proposes. Daphne accepts and introduces him to her father, who greets him with the words: "Get out of here you cur -- you rulned my home ---- stole my wife -- curse you!" Daphne's father dies and she disap pears. Michael explains to her frlend, Mrs. Gregory, that he was nlsrepre- gented. He buys the old Tudor House owned by the Hamill-Hardy's. Mrs. Gregory promises to mall a letter from him to Daphne. "Why didn't 1 think of that? Of course, if Daphne's mother were found I could prove there was noth- ing in it," he said, "She may be dead, though." For some time he sat musing, At one time Michael Borde would have declared arrogantly that with money you could do anything. Experience had taught him that money did not always yield results so quickly as he imagined, for in spite of all he had done to find Daphne's whereabouts he was none the wiser. With a woman like Mrs. Eden, however, as he re-| membered her, and it was odd to find how little he could remember and how blurred her image had grown, it might not be so difficult. If as Richard Eden had declared so vehemently, she was supposed to have eloped wilh him, it looked as though she had quitted that Midland town about the time he left, therefore her destination might be traceable. It was certain she had not gone back to Eden, and unless she were dead . . . here he shrugged his shoulders, "Her sort don't die young," was what Michael Borde said rather bit- terly. : . It was very annoying to find that a woman for whom he'd not cared twopence. should have power, after all these years, to work such dis-| turbance, And in the first affair of the heart he had ever had. og He suddenly buried his face in his hands. Yes, he 'did care, he _ cared turbance in his life. He felt that he gould never be able to concentrate upon business in the same way until once and for all he had discovered whether she would marry him now. It was difficult to write the letter, without ¢iving himself away. He badly wanted to tell the whole un- varnished story, explain himself, for he thought it would be so easy. But since Lorna Gregory had advised the other. thing, he simply begged Da- things up. ' "Until you have heard what I have to say, Daphne, don't. utterly terribly.

That I do not wish to make these changes hurriedly, I have suggested this day week for your consultation, as this leaves me time to think over what I have in mind." That letter was posted, and in the meantime she received a reply from Daphne, but in it she made no ment- ion of Michael Borde, or the en- closure in the letter from Mrs, Gre- gory which she now answered, On the assumption, however, that "no news is good news," and that no mention of Michael means that she intended to meet him, Lorna Gregory watched him set off in' the Multiple racing model, wondering why she should have impressed so fussily upon him. the need to be cautious, over driving, "I'm like an old hen. with her chickens, today," she told herself, as she lay back in her chair. "What do I know about modern cars? He must have thought me a fool." He had smiled back in that charm- ing, although cocksure way of his, waved his hand, and as that sharp pain ran over her body again, Lorna Gregory closed her eyes. Years ago that terrible accident in the hunting ficld had crippled her, and there were days, as now, when as well-as physi- cal pain, black spells of utter melan- cholia enveloped her, so that she was unable to think coherently, A presentiment of evil hung around her, but this had happened before, and like a woman possessed of sec- ond sight, as she lay 'with closed eyes, she followed Michael on his journey along the white dusty road that wound from the bottom of the hills to Shakespeare land. Once or twice she plucked at the fringes of the cash- mere shawl wrapped about her like one who counts a charm. "Will she come. . . she will. She . I wonder if she will," ran the jumble of her thoughts. Then that sharp stabbing pain ran through her again, she caught her on Saturday at two o'clock. wait in the garden condemn me," he wrote, "I'm the| might have been unconsciousness prisoner at the bar, waiting to be| heard the cuckoo calling down the judged.

Yet it is precisely what we oldsters have to do when our brood is about, There is nothing so catching as fear. Catching because it is already there to spring into life at the first engagement, And few things can make life so wretched as these fear with which children grow up the happier life will be, One mother with a family of little folk has an unconquerable dread of storms, Her terror of lightning amounts almost to hysteria. But not one of her children bothers about a storm, : They laugh at the "boom bang" up in the sky, and the flashes, 5 - The miracle is due to her own con- troi. "If I'm scared too much to hide it," -she says, "I say I have a little headache and lie on the couch with my face to the wall. They play about. But, of course, I know what- they are doing. "Usually I can keep going. Some- times we start a game or I even sing. But one thing I never do. I never talk to them about the storm except to say, "My, oh, my; now it's going to be cooler.' " A real soldier-mother, -this, She knows the agony of storm terror and she wants her children to avoid it if possible, She blames her own fear on the procedure of her mother when she was little, of pulling down all the shades, hauling her small daughter into a dark room, covering her head and uttering low moans At every crack. HOW TO SET FEAR Dramatizing self in electric storms serves to set the fear--there is no The only real relief is actually not to be afraid. We should work toward that end with children even though we are hopeless cases overselves, : Mr, Kearney warns about fire- places and chimneys favorite hunt- ing ground of the stray bolt. And open fields. And tall trees, It is not wise to choose the tallest of a group or to stand too close to any tree. But even $0, we can remember with com- fort that the odds are small.
