NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY. The storm was lessening in violence. and Hope propped herself up on her pillows, determined to listen for any indications that might betoken Bris- tcw's return. But although she was not conscious of physical fatigue, she was mentally • nd emotionally exhausted, and be- fore she knew it she slept. When she awoke the next morning, a heavy gale was blowing from the sea, and the rain was coming down Bt«adily. Somewhere in this chain of circum- stance which bound her, there must be a weak link. But what was it? She was one, in a fixed place, this room; the others were three, and moved about at will â€" three acting in concert. Acting in concert! With the repetition of the words, a thrill ran over her from head to foot, and there came a flash of illumination. If that unity, that close concord could be broken, if they got to argu- ing and disagreeing among themselves. it would inevitably mean postpone- ment of action. She looke<l at the little clock on the dressing table. It was growing late. Miss Copley would l)e in at any mo- ment now. Sho must dress and be ready for her. She was just putting the finishing touches to her toilet when the nurse entered with the breakfast tray. As Anita saw Hope standing there fully dressed, she halted so abruptly that the dishes rattled on the tray. She put it down ha!!tily, and looked at her patient with unconcealed amazement. "You're not usually so spry,' she said .sourly. "What did you fix your hair that way for?" Hope affected astonishment at the question. "Why, I always do it this way." Anita scowled, but .seemed unable tc take her eyes off the girl. "Eat your breakfast," she said peremptorily, and walking over to the window stood with her back to Hope, looking out on tho rain-soaked p-ounds, biting her lip in absorbed cogitation. Finally she turned, as Hope wa« fininhing her coffee. "I'll g<'t your pencil and paper for you." HofK* objected, pushing out her hands p<>tti^â- hly. 'I never want to see them again," 'Good morning." he stood gazing at Ijcr from under his heavy brows, the searchin'g, comprehensive glance of the born diagnostician. "I was tired last night, but I feel as fresh as paint this morning." Her tone was buoyant. "I remember; things." I His remarkable eyes pierced her through and through, an inquisition ; but she bore it unwaveringly. I At last he forced a smile. "That's good," he said with an effort i at heartiness. "What do you remem- ber?" "I remember going away with that crazy man. He told me not to go in to supper, to stay on the porch and wait for him. Then he took my arm, and ran down the steps and jumped into the car. I took the chauffeur's her voice, and looking apprehensively toward the door, "she was cross. I don't like her. I hate her. Why don't you send her away, and let me stay with you?" She came nearer, coaxing, entreat- ing, her lips adorably poutcJ. "You're so wise and kind. I like to be with you. I like to look at you You wear such beautiful clothes." She stroked the sleeve of his coat, as if its touch gave her a luxurious pleasure. "And your nccktiea. That's the loveliest black pearl I ever saw." She touched it with her finger, and bent cloter. so near him that her hair brushed his check. A glorious creature! Bristow's breath came a little faster. Young, lovely, rich. How could he have been 80 blind, so obtuse to the possibilities of the situation? And at this moment. Anita Copley cho.se to return to the room. She stood inside the door, glancing from one to the other, varying emo- tions depicted on her face. Surprise. Suspicion deepening to comprehension. And then jealous anger. Hope laughed gaily and clung to his hand. He smilingly released himself and left, without another glance at Anita. "You're in love with him." The girl's ffice was ellishly acute, as she tauted her jailor. She knew that she was going beyond the danger-line, but she took that risk. The further she could goad Anita the better. "And he doesn't care that for you!" She brought her fingers together and then opened them, blowing off an imaginary speck. "He likes me! He likes me!" She made an unexpected rush, and propelled Anita toward the mirror. "Ixjok at us! Ix)ok." her chin on the woman's shoulder. Anita stood trance-like for an in- stant, enthralled by the two faces so like and yet so different, with all the terrible difference in Hope's favor. And then, before the younger wo- man could realize her purpose, sh; whirled. There was one stinging blow on the cheek that .sent Hope stagger- ing. Others, a rain of them, followed. "Now, you crazy loon!" in a gasp- ing, threadlike snarl. "Keep still or I'll give you worse. Keep still, I tell you," as Hope crouched and whimper- ed. "I'll see about this! I'll see about this." She rushed from the room. Hope caressed her bruised cheek, and smiled.

Hobo Bill sat in what he called the "parlor" of his suite in the sanitarium, on old man in a worn, velvet dressing- gown. At twenty minutes after three, Bristow and Anita Copley came in together.

Chance alone prevented the long-prepare<l and ingenious plan of the thief \ from succeeding. Some weeks ago the X-ray physi- cian while motoring to Treport was stopped on a lonely road by a well- dressed stranger who said that his own car had broken down and asked for a lift. Although the other car was not in sight the doctor drove the stran- ger into Treport, and they are said to have made mutual confidences on th eway and exchanged cards at the end of the journey. In the course of this the stranger learned that the doc- tor intended to remain at Treport a fortnight. Two days later the road acquain- tance visited the doctor's home in Paris representing himself to be a con- fidential friend of the doctor who had asked him to bring his radium to Tre- port with other valuables. The stran- ger presented his own card which read "Conite de Quesscn" together with the doctor's card. The servant in charge was properly impressed and was about to help the "Coui.t" gather together the valuables required, when It was the Virtues of the Humble ''Spud'' One may live on it indefinitely, with no other food except a little fat, says the writer of an editorial in The Jour- nal ot the American Medical Associa- tion (Chicago). In fact, popular as the potato is, he believes that we have not given it full credit for its dietetic value. As it may yield from twenty to thirty times the weight of wheat, barley or oats> he regards its import- ance as a footl supply in densely peo- pled regions as apparent. He writes: "Next to corn it is our greatest food plant, and outside the corn-belt it is without a rival in North America, Europe, or Asia. An economist has remarked that if need be the potato may revolutionize the economic status of a great section of central North America from central Ohio to the for- ests of the Ontario highlands, and from Newfoundland to Michigan, Manitoba, Alberta and Alaska. He adds that if at any time any one fears the early approach of serious food shortage, let him consider the potato and take comfort. This article of food ii second only to whea in the number of time^ a y.ar that it is eaten in America, and in Europe it probably stands first. Analysis shows that it is clo.se to wheat in actual food value, but it contains so much water that four times as much potato as wheat must be eaten in order to Obtain the same amount of nourishment. "Perhaps theso tubers, sometimes called 'spuds,' have not acquired the dietary reputation to which their nu- tritive properties entitle them. The fuel value of the potato is as well utilized as that of most foods. The credit of whatever excellence it may pos.sess is usually attributed to the .starch content. Potatoes are, of course, predominantly a carbohydrate food, but the evidence i„ becoming more con- clusive that the protein in the tubers, small though it may be in quantity, is by no means of inferior value. Hind- hede and his coworkers in Denmark reported their ability to live over long periods of time on a diet in which the nitrogen was derived solely from whole potato. One person partook without detriment of a diet of between 4% and nine pounds of potatoes daily, with some vegetable margarin, during nearly 300 days. This has led a physi- ologist to remark somewhat facetious- ly: 'What could be more simple than stocking the cellar with coal, potatoes and a tub of margarin! Who then would worry about the complexities of modern life?' "The large-scale natural experi- Mum m CAK£5 Make Better ^ ^ Bread ^ Askypur grocer for ROYAL YEAST CAKES ^SIANDARDOrC lOWERSO"^ ments of potato-eating nations seem to establish the high value of potato pro- tein. The satisfactory value of tub- erin, the globulin of potato, has been established anew by Kon at the Bio- chemical Laboratory in Cambridge, England. Furthermore, Kon and Klein, working in the State School of Hygiene at Warsaw, Poland, have de- scribed an experiment in which two adults, a man and a woman, lived for a period fo 167 days in nitrogen equi- librium and in good health on a diet in which the nitrogen was almost sole- ly derived from the potato. Necessar- ily the daily intake of potatoes (which was supplemented with fats and a few fruits) was large. The digestion seems to have been excellent through- out the experiment, and both subjects felt well. It is reported, moreover, that they did not tire of the uniform potato diet, and that there was no craving for change. It is said that de- ficiency diseases are not common where the potato enters liberally into the diet. Such favorable reports give renewed as-surance that the populat spud is endowed with nutrient merits for man and beast alike. The common people do not ente» Into war. They are dragged into it. â€" J.

"And I knew all the roads as well as if I'd been over them hundreds of times." He rubbed his chin, still studying her.

In the needlework st>ction excellent work clothing was exhibited, and the machine work included dressmaking and men's clothing. Knitting, Hard- iingt'r work, English embroidery and crochet work were well represented. The arts and crafts, carpentry, carving, clay modeling, basket work, etc., were another feature of the show aH well AH head work. The clay modeling of a group of cattle, includ- ing two Eriesland bulls, a Zulu bull, a cow and an elephant, done by n young native boy, was the work of an artist. Tht poultry exhibits were good and invluOeil some well-bred I.eghorns. Fruit, vegetables, jams and jellies were other exhibits which reflected credit to the exhibitors. The show was held under the pat- ronage of the Native Affairs Depart- ment and the Zululand Agricultural Society and was opened by the Chief Magistrate for Zululand. turally the servant mentioned the Comte de Qucssen's presence and his mission, but when he turned from the phone the visitor, who had heard his words, had disappeared. .: Radio Beacons Placed On Coast of Britain London â€" The installation of radio beacon stations at suitable places around the coasts of tho British Isles Is proceeding rapidly.
