' There was a dead silence, broken Uv ' 1 only by the beat of the rain against . the windows and a crescendo of - song from the canary. The dying man looked up at the lad.

' "Well, it ought to be quite a surprise to a practically penniless young man to discover that he haa suddenly inherited a considerable fortune." . • "I wish I could tell him he's my son.

"Give me a pen, will you?" Waldo put a fountain pen in the Invalid's hand. Then he picked up a book and held the will against it as sort . of a prop in front of Duncan. , "The letter I wrote--" Waldo broke in on the* invalid. . "I have it in the vault at my office.** Slowly and )«ainfully Duncan signed his name to the will. As it ~ was finished. Walno put it back In He "warmly shook the physician's hand. "Congratulations" (Posed by Alan Dinehart, Mae Clark and .Veil Hamilton) the couch and sat. depositing his medicine case on the floor. The invalid resumed speaking "I want you to forget for the moment that you're my doctor," and turning to Jane, "and that you. my dear, are my nurse I want you both ,to know that the year I've been lying here paialyzed and useless has been made bearable only through you. You've cared for me as though you were my children. I . take the privilege of an old man whose days are numbered--and both of you know how nuiribered they are--to intrude into .something you may think doesn't concern me. When are you two going to get married?" Graham and Jane exchanged 4)uick glances. The lad was taken aback. He said, "Well, we're figuring that perhaps when--that is. ; after--" He stopped and Duncan continued. "After I'm dead?" Before he could reply. Waldo entered the rpom. and. addressing 1 Duncan, said? "I've just had copies of your will typed Hello, Jane. How's the patient after the party last night? Jane smiled. "1 guess he stood it about as well as most of us." "I think I'd welcome a serious ailment if I could be assured you'd be my nurse," Waldo said lightly. "I'm afraid you couldn't count on that. You see--I'm giving up nursing." "Why?" Jane became facetious. "Mr Waldo, meet my fiance, Dr. Graham.* Bob masterfully concealed the shock that the announcement brought to him. With every evidence of warmth and good will he went up to Graham and declared, "I can't say that I'm surprised-- I've been expecting it for soma time." He warmly shook the physician's hand. "Congratulations." He turned toward Jane and took her hand. "Felicitations, my dear." He paused and then continued, "I suppose it's permissible, under the circumstances, for an old friend to kiss the bride-to-be?" Before Jane could do anything about it, he had leaned over and planted a kiss on her lips. She was embarrassed, but . covered her emotion with a smile, as Waldo turned to Graham and said, "1 don't mind telling you, my Jboy, if you hadn't beaten me to it, il'd have fallen for this young lady myself. Yes, sir-- and if I ever do get married it will be to somebody like Jane." ' Laughingly, Graham replied, "Impossible There is nobody quite like Jane anywher* in the world." "Quite so I agree with you. Well, 1 suppose I'll have to wait, now, until she's a widow." A look of fear came into Jane's face. Waldo turned to Duncan, and David, noting the sadness, walked over to Jane. "They're going to be married tomorrow," said Duncan, smiling over at the pair. •- "So soon?" Waldo was startled, "To please me--and right in this house, too." "Nothing could be more appropriate." Waldo sat down on the couch. "It was in my house they met."

John tells me he's to be the best man. I think it's up to me to give the bride away--but we'll talk about that later" He looked at his watch. "I must run along now. I have to catch the .two forty-flve for New York I m staying in town tonight, so I won't see you until tomorrow." He bowed. "Until then--" he left the room, and the house. He got into a cab and drove speedily to the station where he boarded the two forty-five train for New York after talking a spell with the station master. As the train Btopped down at Elmsville. Waldo got off and walked down the station platform to an automobile parked at the curb. He got into it, started the motor and drove off. returning to his own home by a secluded route. He parked the car in a concealed spot near the rear entrance of the house and got out. _ He took a careful survey to be sure ^ that nobody was about and then ' moved through the shrubbery to a position where he could see the front of the building. For a while. Hob waited and watched. A car was parked in front of the house. Jane and Graham came out, walked to the car and got in. A smile came into Bob's face as they drove away. He emerged from the shrubbery and went to the rear of the house. Before he reached the door, he manipulated a plank in the side so that a lock was revealed The whole affair was a door, cleverly disguised to permit the owner to enter and leave secretly. Waldo unlocked the door, entered And closed it after him There was the sound of a click as the door closed and a tiny electric light in the cellar sprang into life. In a dim corner. Morgan, awaking from his drunken sleep, was startlad by the light. He was surrounded by empty liquor botles and was still wearing his Santa Claus outfit and beard. Morgan looked toward Waldo, who was so Intent upon his purpose that he did not waste a moment to look around, but started mounting the stairs. He reached the top of the flight of steps and reached for the gadget necessary to onen the secret panel. Morgan watched, pop-eyed, as the panel opened and Waldo entered his itudy, closing the opening behind him. As he did so, the light in th« cellar went out, leaving the plac* in relative darkness. Once in the study, Waldo looked abolit for a minute. Then, walking softly, he went to the door communicating with the foyer. It was bolted on the inside of the study. Carefully shooting back the bolt. h« entered, and assured himself that nobody was there. Then he opened the door communicating with the servant's quarters, listened a moment and then closed it. He then looked Into the living; room to^be sure that It was empty, and then returned toJ the study. Again he locked the Boor between the foyer and the study, and moved to tb«u door leading to the nick room, which he opened and entered. TO BE CONTINUED RURAL-POSTMEN TO FEED HUNGRY BIRDS JMm Lovers of Country Will Supply Grain. Hartford, Conn.--Official co-opera* tlofc of 40,000 rural-free-deli very postnien has been enlisted in a nation wide "Feed the Birds" movement, with the full approval of the first assistant postmaster general in Washington. Nature lovers throughout the country will supply grain for "Mr. and Mrs. Hungry Bird," and the rural letter carriers will scatter it at plapes along their routes, where birds can find it. The movement, under the leadership of Thomas H. Beck, chairman of ConfitKticui siiue boara of lisherles and game, is an effort to save th® wild birds of the country from the starvation which threatens them as a result of the snow blanket now covering most of the northern and eastern states. "The best bird foo>9, under present conditions," says Mr. Beck, 'Is the grain known in feed stores as 'tailings and sweepings,' which can now be purchased In 100-pound bugs at about a penny a pound, the lowest price in recent years. Anje public spirited cltlxen who wishes to participate in this campaign to save the nation's bird life may purchase a bag of this grain and address it to 'Mr. and Mrs. Hungry Bird,' is care of Rural Carrier, R. F. D„ wltli the number of one of the rurAI routes In their neighborhood. The rural carrier will then see th#t the grain is emptied In suitably sheltered spots where the birds can readily find it." ' Packages of anywhere from five pounds upwards may be sent in this way, with the usual parcel postage attached. In Connecticut, the movement is already assured of comp}ete success, thanks to the leadership of 69 sportsmen's clubs. In other states, it will have the co-operation of the Boy Scout, organizations, the 4-H -clubs, the game clubs and members of the Audubon societies. The leaders of the movement make it clear that they are not suggesting that food for the birds should in any way be permitted to Interfere with food for Human beings. "Unemployment relief and necessary charitable ^nterprises must naturally take precedence over everything else at this time," says Mr. Beck. "But there certainly are thousands of nature lovers who will wish to supplement thfcir charity to their fellow man with a thought for the wild life of the countryside. ^ Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Hankie and son of Evanston spent Monday with Mr. and Mrs. Frank St. George.

Prof. Dr. Adolf Hofmeister of th® University of Griefswald claims to have discovered the mysterious city of Vineta, once the thriving port of a mighty Baltic kingdom. The little town of Wollin In Pommerania, the German professor states, is the spot where the ancient legendary city once was located. He bases his assertion on old chronicles, just discovered by him. According to these, Vineta once was ruled by an old Viking king. In 1100 It was destroyed by the Danes, against whom the Vikings were carrying on a bloody war. The city was famous for its marvelous architecture and streets. It even is said to have possessed "a lighthouse, the only one believed to have been In existence in the Eleventh century. The real name of the city was Jumneta. By the mistake of a chronicler who wrote its history, the name was changed to Vineta. Professor Hofmeister is firmly convinced he has found the remains of the legendary city In WolUn, An expedition now has gone there to carry out excavation works. "Nothing in Bible Abottt It," Refuse to Pay Tax Lancaster, Pa.--Because "there is nothing In the Bible that says women should pay taxes," wives of Warwick township farmers refuse to pay per capita levies until forced by liens. This was revealed by Jacob G. Conrad, township tax collector, and W. T. Wahls, state tax collector, after they filed liens against the properties of four women. Thereupon the women paid the $4.20 per capita tax, and an additional $2.40 each for costs. Conrad explained there is a strong faction of Mennonite fanners In th« township, headed by Christian Landls^ which fights continually against payment of taxes by women. "They claim," said Conrad, "that the Constitution of the United States is based on the Bible, and that nowhere in the Bible can they find any record of any woman having to pay taxes. "This group will not pay until forced to do so, as a matter of principle." at the Molidor home here- Mr .and Mrs. Arthur Kaiser were Waukegan callers Thursday, Mr. and Mrs. Irving Molidor of Libertyville spent Friday at the Molidor home.
