She rarely made tea there unless Burle- son asked it, but today he was out and the great fireplace tempted her. It was a gray day and the leap of the fire would be like the heart of a welcome -- warm and bright. It was nearly five o'clock. She had barely time to give a few more dainty touches to her tea-table. ler eye caught the glimmer of the reen jade god on her uncle's li- fran table, The sight of it re- called his face yesterday, the sudden red streak between his brows; she stood an instant looking at the cu- rious little green image, its uncan- ny, elfish face, its pointed beard, green as seaweed, its perfect hands. It squatted as an Oriental god should, and the light from the fire _ gleamed on its bald jade head. Sud- denly fancy scized her; she lifted it and. put it gently down on her table beside the flowers.

HEADACHE POWDERS _ 14 a tremor of uneasiness, She tried to thrust out disturbing thoughts, but old Fosdick's manner, his treat- ment of the man, had been so -- so disconcerting; She was a little disturbed still, though her eyes were shining, when there was a stir in the hall, the lifting of @ por- tiere, a new voice, and then the tall man with the level eyes. She held out a frank hand. "I'm so glad you could come!" she said; "I thought it might be hard for you to find the time." He took her hand and held it, looking down into her eyes. "It's been a thousand times hard- er to stay away," he replied sim- ply, "and I've tried -- I never meant to come here agdin!" She gave him a questioning look; the firelight caught her face and showed it ivory pale. "I' don't know what you .mecan, but you'll tell me?" she breathed softly. "I came to tell you." "Sit down then, let me give you a cup of tea," her voice faltered. "No!" he said quickly. Suddenly, impulsively, she put her hand out and touched his arm. "It can't be as bad as that -- and I'm your friend!" she assured him sweetly. * * » He caught her hand and kissed it passionately; then he let it drop and folded his arms. "I'm not fit to do that," he said harshly, "I've played a part." Then he told her the simple truth about his meeting with Lanflon and Banks, and the wager. "I was nothing but a shabby im-- poster, even my name's false," he said bitterly. "I don't deserve to be spoken to. It burns me up with shame. I made a vow I wouldn't come back 'here under false pre- tenses. I was going away when you , met me the other day. You ought to refuse to speak to me!" She seemed to consider this, for she said nothing for a while, and her silence hurt him. "I can't understand," she said in . a low voice, "why a man ®ike you should come here like that! To let "yourself be -- well, be brought here on a wager." "To make you understand that I'd have to tell you the story of my life, * he replied hoarsely, "the whole story!" "Yes?" she said, gravely, interro- gatively. : He straightened up, his haggard eyes met hers. "My God, T -- 1 can't do that!" he cried brokenly; "I'm a coward -- I can't do that!" * * * But she was silent, waiting. The girl's quiet attitude, the curve of her cheek turned toward him, gave no hint of the turmoil in her own mind, She recalled -- too vividly -- Fosdick's attitude, his lean old black-clad shoulder turned on the younger man, the biting mockery of his tone when he repeated the name, "Byram," a false name, as How You Can Get Quick Reliet From Sore, Painful Piles Most Jy way eople seem to think the on. 0 get relief from their sore, Jains piles Is by local treatment. cal treatment may give tempor- ftching but ary relief from the you can easily see why such trent. ment wll not cor- rect the cause of your plies.

Would this end it? Would she know at once? "Mark Grant," he replied slow- ly, letting the two words drop into the silence. Then he turned and looked at her. She did not know! How could she? Tt was fifteen years ago! The relief of her ignorance made his heart leap; she did not re- coil, she did not look abhorrance at him, the name meant nothing to her. She was still concerned with the wager. "I can't see how you came to do it," she repeated. "Teddy Banks--" her gesture was disdainful -- "and Landon, I know them! But you--" * % * "If it will help you to under- stand, I'll tell you that I had eighty cents in my pocket that night; my aunt had left me a legacy but I couldn't get it at once.

She nodded; she could not speak, for he had her hand in both his; she could feel the emotion that shook him. But still he did speak. "I think you must have had some reason for it," she said simply; "I can't believe ill -- of you." "Don't look at me like that!" he exclaimed; "turn your eyes away! For I've no right to speak to you until I tell you -- I've been in pris- on." In the silence a log fell from the andirons and a mass of sparks flew up the black throat of the chimney.

He hoped for an hour of quiet, but in five minutes Joan was back, announcing that the map of the world was all laid out on the floor. - "How did, you get the world to- gether so quickly?" asked her fa- ther. ; "That was easy," exulted Joan. "I turned the pieces over, and on the other side I saw a picture of a man; I just put the man together right, and when the man was to- gethe - right, the world was right."

Partner and I never agree when the time comes each year to order chickens, Partner al- ways wants plenty of cockerels. I would rather be without male birds . altogether and raise only pullets. However we generally compromise by ordering mixed chickens. But this year we are both having our own way. We are getting pullets in March and cockerels in May. I always say that by having both sexes together the cockerels are raised at the expense of the pullets, even when they are too young to be separated. The greedy little males always boss their poor little sisters at every turn, crowding around the feed troughs, showing by their actions it doesn't matter who gets left as long as they don't. And do they eat! Just about twice as much as the wee pullets. But still, -if no one raised these bossy young cockerels, there wouldn't be any roast chickens on our tables, would "there?
