THE cdfcBORNE EXPRESS, COI BORNE, THURSDAY, MARCH 18th, 1937 )y mge Pekoe Blend SALADA TEA " Star Ruby By Louise Jerrold CHAPTER XII "A very pretty story." It was Yelena's voice, harsh, and entirely free of the Russian accent. "And it has a surprise ending! Just hand over the rubies, my gallant Irish friend!" ■ "And no monkey-business, either! This from Michael, who had poked Guard against spoiled dough! BAKE WITH ROYAL always full strength a gun nito Dennis' back while Ye-lena was covering Albertine. "Zoland is back here, too." Dennis laughed grimly. "Brave Michael, who takes no chances! You see, I was in the garden last night when you suggested to Yelena that Bates rob me while I slept--or should I say, while I was supposed to be drugged by the after-dinner coffee? And when Bates--or Zoland to you--turned out to be drunk, I had to listen to Yelena nerving you to do it yourself. And a fine job you made of it!" "Quit stalling, Maxwell! There are three of us, and we've all got guns." That was Bates and, at the menace in his voice, Albertine's grip on the steering wheel tightened. In the distance, the scattered lights of Tevansville twinkled feebly. If she could only get to the bridge! Bob Fletcher would be there. But they'd never let her -- Albertine knew that. Even Denny seemed to realize that the odds against him were too great. With a sinking heart, Albertine saw him reach into an inner pocket of his coat for the rubies. Tanman-Roan would surely believe the loss of the rubies was too much of a coincidence, following so closely on the heels of the diamond theft. They would think Denny and Bates--or Zoland--were confederates. Denny would be disgraced! "Stop the car!" Bates rasped. It was maddening, Albertine 'thought--the bridge and Bob Fletcher couldn't be more than a few min-ly. She decided swiftly. "Brace yourself!" she whispered to Dennis. Then, without lessening her speed, she deliberately ditched the Woman's World By Mair M. Morgan PRESS EMBROIDEF Why not be in style when;-lotion--a spattering of gay bout's so easy?

Write plainly Pattern Every cake of Royal is sealed in an airtight wrapper free from contamination THERE'S one infallible rule in bread-halting -- your yeast must be full strength. Weak yeast can cause spoiled dough, soggy grayish texture, an unpleasant "off-taste". That's why it's important to insist on yeast that is protected against loss of strength--every cake sealed in an air-tight wrapper. Royal is the only dry yeast that has this special protection. It stays fresh, full strength and free from impurities. For fifty years, Royal has stood for dependa bility. Today 7 out of 8 Canadian housewives demand Royal when they bake with a dry yeast.

She was iying jammed against the steering wheel, her weight pressing upon the horn button. The car was on its side, and against her lay the unconscious form of Denny, in a grotesquely crumpled position. There was dead silence in the back of the limousine- The others were evidently out, too. She cried out for help, her voice mingling with the blare of the Far down the road, she saw a single light appear, poise in the air, disappear, then reappear again on the crest of a hill. She could hear the roar of a motorcycle as the light drew steadily nearer. Bob Fletcher!" In a moment, he had reached the scene of the wreck. He leaped from his machine, dropped into the ditch and jerked open the right front door of the car, which was lying on its left side. "I can't move!" Albertine's voice was sharp with fright. "See--see if this young man is all right." Gently Fletcher pulled Dennis' inert form away from her. She slid back from the horn, stopping its bleating. Then Denny groaned--that was music to her ears. He was alive! "Albertine!" he called. "Alber- "I'm all right." Her head achC intolerably. Her whole body acha^ for that matter. "Mr. Fletcher, tar a look in the back of the car.' "What's left of it, you mean," Fletcher said grimly- "Who' , "Three crooks who were holdii us up. That's why I ditched t] The policeman was staring in the rear of the limousine. "I heard the infernal racket j the horn and decided I'd better ij what was what." He started lifting the three unco scious jewel thieves out of the to neau of the front of the car, his le arm dangling at his side. Albe; tine followed him. "Need any help, officer?" aakjfl Dennis.
