W GO ON WITH THE SfORY CHAPTER TWO r..t Miss Josle La Tour, beautiful acrobat with the Rainey clrwas looking pensively from the window of her wagon home, when the lone door of the wagon opened. Rainey, the owner, entered. La Tour looked up, then resumed > her gazing out the ratn-be-amatv^'-^ tered. window. A train was passing on the nearby tracks--the train carrying Thatcher Colt and Miss Kelly. Rainey stood behind her and followed La Tour's stare, The girl snoke bitterly. "I wish was on that (rain. I wish I was anywhere but with this stick-inthe- mud carnival that calls itself a circus."' "You're liable to get your wish," said Roihey sourly. . "Well... .that's one way to run .*> circus." _ j "Circus!* Dugan shook his head, disgustedly. "I've been with every-" thing from a flea show to the Olym-^ pic Games, but I'v£ never seen an outfit like this before. This ain't A circus." he looked through the wii^.j dow at the rain that beat down. '"iff. an ark i. Sebastian, a tall, handsome man,, in'his early thirties, laughed. "Andf we hit Gilead on Friday, the 13tl»"; Dun an shuddered and walked out. He turned and called through the' door, "No more poker with yO0,/ Lovell!" He stalked away. Loveil turned to Sebastian. "CftB . I help it if I'm lucky at cards?" v J: "And unlucky," Sebasti&n Spok# casually, "at love?" i :i "It's just the other way arouilA : with you. Sebastian, You're lucky at love, aren't you?" VYou've hoard ihe old saying1--- - what's one man's meat is another man's poison." Sebastian slipped into his raincoat. "You've seen Crumps handle his cats, haven't you? He makes them sit up oft their hind legs, roll over, do all soft* of tricks. It looks easy, don't It* Well. It is--for Crumps. If you tried It, they might have to carry you out.'-' He walked to the door. "Yet, ' "Vote litte*, honey, if you'd only be nice to Lovell {Posed bpGrcta Nissen and George Jtinuer) | La Tour swung around. • "What 'do you mean?" ' "I mean we close at Gilead--uniless Lovell kicfts in with some more dough." ;• "What makes you think he won't?" ! Kalney spoke meaningly. "You don't have to ask me." 1, "Get this Rainey!" the girl yelled angrily. "If your, angel wants that kind of dividends out of his investments, there are plenty of other 'women with this show!" "Not so far as Lovell'* concerned." La Tour poked a finger in Rainey's ; chest. Her small, delicate features contorted with rage. "If you want to keep him healthy you'd better re- ' mind him that I've got a husband 'around!" • Rainey was sarcastic. "Your husjband? You mean that guy you're 'foolin' around with!" ' The girl's eyes narrowed. Sh6 bei came suddenly calm. "Who?" "Sebastian," Rainey answered in a matter-of-fact tone. "Everybody around here knows what's going on between you and him." "That's my affair!" The words were spat out between clenched teeth. "That'* just it--It's your affair. And It's my affair to keep this show going." Rainey lowered his voice and a sensual suggestiveness came into his tone. "Now, listen, honey. -Jf you'd only be nice to Lovell " There was a smack as the girl's hand whipped across Rainey's face. "Get out of here!" she screamed. "Go on! Get out! Get out of here!" Rainey cowered and backed out -of the wagon. He stopped at the bottom of Ihe steps to feel tenderly of the welts that had been left on his face. He scewled and walked away. Lovell, The Great Sebastian, aerlalist extraordinary, Dugan. the press agent for the circus, and Crumps, the lion tamer, sat in one of the wagon* playing poker. Cilimps arose. "1 quit!" Without another word he stalked out of the wagon. Lovell smiled. "Crumps is a bad. loser." Dugan made a wry expression as he got up to leave. "1 don't blame him." He put on his hat. "That's a great racket. Lovell. You put up the dough for our salaries each week, then you tajse it away from [ at poker." sir, they misht have to carry you.' out." He walked out into the blind- ! Ing rain. A figure -took shape before i him. | A contemptuous smile was on; Sebastian's lips. "Hello, Flandrlitt*; The shape stopped its slow move- • ment and turned. A haggard face ! looked out from over a dripping; raincoat. The mouth was taut, the eyos drawn, with a strange, burning light seeming to glow from within--like some smouldering fire which burned in the soul of the man and *wa* only suppressed through sanity. Flandrin spoke. His voice vu' . dead, soggy, as though the wet night had penetrated his being. "She ju<t *. told me. Sebastian." "Told you. what?" . "That," Flandrin droned*;-• going to get a divorce.** V "Hm-m-rn . v Klandrin's voice rose a little now, "You knew about it!" "I told her to do it.*1 answered Sebastian evenly. !: Flandrin stared at Sebastian in si-": lence a moment, his lips twitched, then like a beggar cringing and beg* ging alms, he whined, "Sebastian . . . everything was all right between Josie and me until you came along. If you went away we could patch things up." He put a hand on Sebastian's arm in a wheedling gesture. "She don't mean as much to you as she does to me. I've known . her ever since she was a kid. I couldn't live without her!" Sebastian was cold. "You'll have . to!" He brushed Flandrin'* hand off his arm. "No--no--." Flandrin cried out a* s• though some deep, gnawing p«ln had gt ipped him: "I'll fight the divorce." "If yod do, we'll find some other way. The trouble with you. Flandrill, is .you don't know air when you get, it!" He walked away quickly. Flandrin scared after Sebastian'* vanishing figure. The rain running down his face looked Hike tears. Hi* eyes had an expression, of a hurt animal. Two member.^ of the cannibal act* parsed anil nodded to Flandrin. He nodded in letui'ri and walked off with them, tlieir tall Congo-savajpe bodies toweling over the white man. The three conversed m the Cuu^o tongue. <TO BI2 CONTINUED) HE WON THE SWORD William "Killer" Kane of San Rafael, Calif., who was declared to be the outstanding athlete at the United States Naval academy and received the sword awarded annually to the best athlete, from Rear Admiral T.

Margery said, smiling tenderly into the flushed face above hers. "But I am going to marry yon, though--" "Stanley, boy, Tm jtist as determined to have you, but it is, better if when we are married we leave no unhappinesa behind us. I know Just how your mother feels about your marrying the daughter of an ordinary factory worker. Your mother has lived all her life among lovely, pleasant, cultured things, and she has a right to feel that I somewhat crude and--" He swung her from her feet and kissed hen "No more of that. Mother is obstinate as a-^a-- Margery freed herself. "Don't you be the same. Listen, my dear, let's think It over; then If we fall, we'll-- we'll just 4o it." ' ' ^ . \ He smiled with relief. "AU tight, then, honey, but you'll have to do the thinking. But I'll give you Just two weeks--and then I'm going to grab you ' and run away with you--family or no family." The plan that had popped Into Mar- _ gery's head while they \yere talking \yer the situation looked a bit desperate, but as she told herself, "Desi>erate cases call for desperate remedies.** She talked the plan over with her father. He laughed and then looked serious. • "Little girl, your second name as I've told you is Mischief, but go ahead, I have faith in you. If it doesn't work, nothing will be lost," he agreed. From that, moment Margery worked with speed. Stanley had said in passing that his mother's companion. Miss Knapp, was getting through; so Mar gery hastened to see. her. u "I'll help you. Th«t old lady is a fearful old aristocrat. I had enough if- her,; and I doubt your luck : but, an\ way, I'll 'recommend you for my position," Miss Knapp-.agreed. So it came abeHt that Margery, late that week, walked into the fine Landon mansion and was interviewed and hired. !5he then planned to tell Stanley what she had done, but found he had left a hurried word for her that he had been rushed South by his firm on an emergency trip. - Margery's sense of humor ~ came readily to her aid those^'first days of her service as companion to Mrs. Lasdon. The old lady was exacting, but Margery met the issue without evasion. She liked to read herself, so her dulfy of reading to Mrs. Tendon for two hours each day was not a task. She liked to play with nice dishes, and Bhe found herself, instead of the cook, preparing pet dishes that Mrs. I.andon liked. She anticipated' her employer's neefls as much as she could, and that she was successful was Indicated tiy Mrs. Landon's brief statement, one aft< ernoon: "MTss .Elder, you are proving very satisfactory, and I would like to make your engagement permanent." Margery smiled outwardly, although she said "Thanks be!" Inwardly! "I am glad to have it permanent," she an swered demurely enougli. - She wrote to Stanley In Cfire of hit firm, and she was sure he knew what was going on: but on that fatal aftefc* noon she discovered otherwise. She came from the hack of the house and stepped into the library where he was talking to his mothef. He glapce# up and saw het^and his eyes opened with astonishment, and his month--' Margery, back of Mrs. Landon, put her finger on her Dps, and she sa# that he had "tumbled." Later, he cornered her In' the* kitchen. "You witch, this was your game. Gosh! Its a good one," he chuckled. "Mater was praising you just as vo« came in. But when she finds out--Oil, golly!" *he grinned. "It'll be worth it just to have you around here." Then began a time of dguht for Margery. She dlscoveied that Mrs. Landon's fear about, the girl her son wished to marry rose, after all, from her great love for her son. Actually, beneath her cold, aristocratic exterior was something that approached closwly a warm heart. Most of the time, however, -she seemed rigid and #et in her ways and ideas. " " Margery began to J>e worried. Tli-f truth must come out sometime, and the plan she had entered upon began to look a little childish, The bottom fell out of the plan suddenly. She was going along the upjM:r corridor when Stanley, stepping front his room, caught her, and gathered hef in his arms. She gave him a kiss In leturn for his, then tried to pull away --and «aw Mrs. Landon lookit*g"lit* them down the hall. Stanley saw her at the same time, and Margery felt his arms tighten. "Gosh, mother saw us. Xow for an earthquake!" he whispered in her ear. His mother approached, and to Mar gerj's astonishment, she was smiling. "So I am to lose my compauion. My dear, forgive roe for deceiving you, but Miss Knapp felt she ought to tell me; so I have known from the beginning. 1 have enjoyed having you here and I hope you and Stanley will want to stay with me right along," she said a bit wistfully. . Stanley reached out a long arm and drew his mother to him. With the other he encircled Margery's waist. "We accept the invitation--and a kiss all around seals the bargain!" he annouaced with joyful finality. ' home of ""Mr. and Mrs. G. Vasey Tuesday.
