So Howard Bennet as he sat forward his chair, with the pteel-looting j#eads of sweat hanging from his #row. . . . . WJio knows! • Perhaps Ue ahoultl ipever have married.

The fact that this lily of a girl, this Almost naively adoring, patient and '^confiding wife of his harbored neither straying eye nor a straying fancy. i0id not serve to mitigate the clironic • torture that befell the lilckless youth. Us more and more the precious, truth «f her desirability impressed itself up- ^»n him during the first , few years of ' their alliance. " 'i^To add to anguish, his role of traveling salesman took him from home, jfour, six and eight weeks at a time, find it was borne In upon Bennet, dur- ** " Ing these same few years, that his Equipment fitted him for practically So other kind of work. Once, Indeed, Ike went so far as to resign his ninejear position with a wholesale shoe firm and set about the perilous task •of finding a position that did not take ,tiim from the home. After three months of one serious case of mal adjustment after another, it was a . 4-hastened young husband who sought. . fnd obtained, the old position, which r» iwing to secret and utterly unjustified . |)angs of jealousy over his wife, he liad resigned. ~ After that, realizing that his fears . And suspicions amounted to Insanity, end that his ceaseless jealous carpings Ivere wearing down even the sweet and gentle resistance of his wife, there was a pronounced improvement In the " manner and attitude of Bennet He DO longer reproached her for the " slightest wandering of her glance if they happened to be walking together - " on the street; ceased dropping In : Jrom his trips, one, two and three iflays before he had announced himself due, and for a while It seemed to the luckless Elaine that now, at last, she iiad got her marriage on some kind of «n even keel. But slowly, surely, like a beast creeping up on It# prey, there erept 5. back into the heart of Bennet, while traveling, the old terrors and Suspicions concerning his wife. She was so fair. She was so Infinitely desirable. She was so over and above any qualities that existed in any woman he had ever known. Nat- 'S urally, men would covet her. Why Hot? She was something to be covetfed. She was something worth covet- ;™*~tng! And last, all her goodness and sweet patience to the contrary potwithstanding, she was brily human. And so there' overshadowed the household, torment and fear and all the ugly anguish that follows In tlife wake of Jealousy. With her lovely blue eyes that had already cried more than their share. Imploring sanity of her husband, It Sometimes seemed to him, holding her closely after one of his tantrums over . ~a trifling nothing and imploring f6 he forgiven, that the only way out of his dilemma of fear concerning this darling of his lifetime, was death. Death for them both. Then he could be s u r e . . . - o n l y t h e n . . . . There were so many possibilities . for losing her. He was away at least - ftlx months of his year. Before her marriage KHiine had been courted and jfouglit more than any girl in her set • fJod knows, hevused to ask of himself, why she chose him. It must have been Ills adoration . . . his mad blinding adoration, that drew her. There had been many a heart ache Over this marriage. Bennet could have counted therri off on his ten fingers. Even the rector of her church, talented, young, sought after, the type of tnan who "had everything." hnd notoriously been in love with Elaine when she up and eloped with Bennet. Elaine, who "had everything,'* could In turn have had Dr. Bradford I/osee who "had everything" and miracle of miracles, she had married^ Bennet. Well, when a man had a hequrat like that, Bennet was apt to argue With himself. It made a maniac of him. It was like owning a Jewel with no vault, casket, or . citaa. atrong fnough to protect v- Mythological Deity - Plutus, in mythology, was the god »f riches, who was blinded by Zeus that he might give without discrimination. ' AM atrangely, adding foti to this secret fire within Bennet, the only source of solace In these terrible years of the realization of her husband's folly lay In the quiet sympathetic moments she could manage to spend wtth her rector. Dr. Bradford Losee, who since the marriage of Elaine and Bennet had become engaged to a now adored girl who was finishing a final year's mis*; sionary work in China before coming home to her marriage, seemed to real* lze better than anyone else, the quality of anguish that resided in the heart of Elaine, and at the same time to have a sympathetic understanding for the plight of her husband. "I think I'll have to leave him, Bradford," she cried, to him over and over again, as time after time the fires of jealousy had raged an<l burned in the household, "I can't stand it I love him. I'm truer than true to him, and In his heart he knows It, but he's killing me, Bradford. Killing me." "God and time will work their miracles, Elaine. . There is not evil In Howard's heart Only weakness and doubt." ? , " - That was true. And true also was the fact that deep in that twisted forlorn heart of his Bennet k£\ew his wife to be Innocent; innocent of the suspicion he came more and more to harbor, that between her and Bradford old fires were rekindling. He knew her to be innocent with his mind and with his heart he burned and hurt and raged and flayed. Time after time, coming home according to his old* ruse a few days before scheduled, there occurred in his household, because he had found her In the Innocent company of this or that person, or In innocent tasks pertaining to this or that relationship, scenes too shameful to bear telling, and time after tin^e she had crouched beside her rector, begging him for strength to go on, a*id time after time, out ofiSthe wide sympathetic understanding for both of them, Bradford had given her that strength. It was on the occasion of one of the unexpected homecomings that, finding her on ,her knees beside Bradford In the library of their home, without a second's hesitation, Bennet reached for his hip pocket and fifed. . . . sitting there In the witness chair, th« steel beads of sweat out all over him, and trying to begin to explain to the judge, why he had committed the heinous crime of killing his wife and her rector, suddenly Bennet knew the futility of the attempt There are certain things so closely enmeshed within the complicated pattern of the human heart, that to even try to explain the more subtle and terrifying (of human motives aa tlons were worse than useless. UU.17E TURNING CATTLE *\i ON GRASS RISKY Better Plan to Sell Animals Directly From Feed Lot, It la better to sell directly from the fteed lot cattle that hare been heavily corn-fed during the winter and spring than to turn them on pasture. Tests at the Ohio experiment station and elsewhere show that such cattle turned on grass lost heavily during the first few weeks and even later fall to make large gains. For this reason, O. Bohstedt, head of the animal industry department at the Ohio station, holds that the turning of corn-Ted cattle on grasc in the spring Is financially a risky practice, especially with poorly bred cattle A feeding tHal under his direction last year showed that corn-fed cattle would much better have been sold dlreetly out of the feed lot than later after having been turned on pasture. Sometimes cattle "eeders are te.mpted to change their original plan of shipping directly from the feed lot. Perhaps heavier cattle command a premium; or, If young stuff l~ being fed, It may not be finished enough to suit the present market. Cattle need roughage even for finishing, which cannot be done on corn and cottonseed meal aloner ;iPhe supply of hay, silage, or shock corn may be low. But it is a mistake to turn the heavily corn-fed cattle on pasture, although the grass is abundant and cheap and palatable to the cattle. It may be possible- to spread the hay or silage a little farther. The steers may relish some bright oat straw, Grinding or crushing the ear corn to eorn-nnd-eob meal will help provide rongliage.

The city nestles in a bowl-shaped depression nearly two miles high among the Andean peaks. Snow-capped mountains are visible from the streets. Before the completion of the Quito- Guayaquil railroad, connecting the capital with Ecuador's principal gateway and port, Quito was isolated. The few travelers that visited the city trekked for two weeks over difficult trails to reach Quito. Now, by rail, they may alight at the Quito depot the evening of the second day out of Guayaquil. Many Indians make Quito their permanent residence; many come and go from the rural districts with the Quito sun. In the market place the bright shawls and ponchos of the -natives add color to the piles of fruit and vegetables, homemade dolls and dyed cloth. Some of the bronze-skinned visitors, particularly those who specialize in selling blankets, prefer the streets to dispose of their merchandise. Nearly all of them wear Panama hats because Kcuador Is the home of Panama hats. In nearly three centuries that the Spanish ruled Ecuador they saturated the capital city with their customs. The principal square, Plaza Mayor, Is laid out in Spanish style with a Spanish government building facing It. Here and there, throughout the city, ornate facades of Spanish churches rise above the roof tops. The narrow cobbled streets, flanked by white, redroofed houses with balconied upper stories, recall streets of cities In Spain.

Yearlings and older cattle will do\ well getting about_ three pounds daily per head. More has been fed at times with profit. These or other alternatives may make it necessary to turn corn-fed cattle on new grass, and both practical experience and experimental evidence argue for selling directly out of the feed lot. Use Formalin Solution to Cure Cattle Bloat Bloating In cattle, when reached In time, can often be relieved by drenching the animal with a solution of half an ounce of formalin in a quart of water. After the animal has recovered a second drench composed of a pound of epsom salts and half an ounce «f ginger in a pint of tepid water should be administered. This treatment Is being used with marked success in the Kentucky experiment station's herd. When, in the sprftig, cattle are first turned on clover or other green feed, the change should be gradual. This is best accomplished by having the cattle graze for 20 to 30 minutes the first day on pasture, And increase this period each day until the dlges-1 tlve organs become accustomed to the green, succulent feed. During the early weeks of spring, cattle should not remain in the pasture overnight nor be turned on pasture while dew or frost is on the grass. An excellent practice Is to feed cattle a little hay or other dry feed before turning them on pasture.
