Mo- homed's recine for longevity is to eat little and abstain from liquor and a tive attitude and Helen followed suit, She heard a car in the drive- way, a soft sound that barely came up through the open windows. “Go and sce who it is,” he told her and she flew swiftly to see if Leonard had returned. eee H= disappointment was instant. This was @ car she had never seen before. “I don't know who it fg.” She turned back to her grandfather. “H'm, what kind of car is it?” “I don’t know, but it’s a beauty,” Helen admitted. “Well, well, I -wonder why we haven't thought of having a car for you. You would like one, wouldn’t you?” “I'd love it,” Helen exclaimed, thinking how fascinating it would be if she could drive about the country and break the monotony of living at Bramblewood. “Can you drive?” he asked her. “Of course. Leonard taught me.” “But he didn’t buy you a car, eh?

The pitiful sight tore at Helen's rl, Quite unaware, Helen had given a satisfactory answer, allaying a doubt about Brent—a doubt of his financial position, For the informa- tion that Mr. Greaves had thus far been able to obtain concerning him was meager indeed, They had learned only that he lived in an expensive hotel and ap- peared to be well supplied with funds. And they preferred not to question him until they had fol- lowed up his story. In a few seconds the door opened and Marks came in. “Miss Brent's car is at the door, he said crisply. “The man ught it is waiting down- who stairs.” “Send him up,” Mr. Cunningham directed, and turned to Helen. She was tack at the window, looking down and gasping with delight. Presently she turned back to him and he saw that she was flushed and happy. “No deep trouble there,” he re- flected with great relief, eee THe agency man was admitted just then. Mr. Cunningham thanked him for bringing the car and asked him if he could take Helen out in it at once, “She says she can drive,” he teased, “but I’m afraid she might mistake the clouds for a hilltop.” The young man grinned. “That car ought to go to anyone's head, Mr. Cunningham,” he answered proudly, “Well, see that she keeps ft on the road,” the older man directed. “And do return soon,” he added to Helen, The car meant a new life for Helen, She drove it early and late, finding new roads, expending her- elf in swift action, flying away from her thoughts. When, now, she thought of Brent and hi charming women friends, she stepped on the gas and flew over the road like mad. It gave her a wild, eerie satisfaction. But one day it brought trouble. a wink’ e iE F Rg Ee | | g8 : ry H ite zie if Fees CHIT af, EF if i i fry 7 7 f aist z ! gE ez : F i “6 i ( | She was near home, going along at a moderate pace down a winding hill when the thought that she was burning up her emotions like so much waste came to her with a clarity that made her resentful. She closed her eyes for an in- stant, The car hugged the road, but Helen had forgotten that she was descending @ hill. Her foot pressed the accelerator and, the car shot forward like a startled deer. Even then, but for the fact that these things happen, no harm would have been done, for she had the car under control. But a girl chose that instant to step from a path along the road directly in front of the car. Her scream and Helen's were sim- ultaneous. Helen’s strong young hands cemented themselves to the wheel in a quick, firm grip. The athletically trained muscles of her forearms stood up like a boy's under her soft skin. The cae whipped aside like a drunken rowdy,‘elimbed a bank and tore through a wire fence before it came to @ stop. For an instant Helen was seized with a vertigo that made her feel faint and ill. Had there been no one else to consider she would probably have lost consciousness, but her mind retained. the fleeting vision of a body being hurled aside from im- pact with her car's fender and this vision sent her running back to the scene, white and shaking with dread, i pens girl she had tionless at the side of the road. ‘The pitiful sight toro at Helen's heart. She gathered the crumpled young body into her arms, sobbing out her horror. The .girl stirred and Helen grasped at the hope that she was not dead. She put her down again very gently out of the way of any car that might pass and ran up to her own car, A prayer of thankfulness escaped | taking stock of her damaged car. her lips when she got the motor | i i i [F | al it Hi ui | E # i tty Flt 3 F | : l i i fl | E E I i i E : i i I i<} : E i : i g “ ] : E i) i started and managed to back down on the road. It required the utmost of her strength to get the injured girl into it, where she lay white and still in a lifeless attitude that frightened Helen to the verge of hysterics. The drive that followed was a nightmare to the girl at the whecl. She controlled the car automati- cally, gripping the gear shift lever as though her hand were frozen to it and not daring to Ict herselt glance at the figure beside her. When she came into Yonkers she was haif paralyzed with the tense- ness of the situation, “I can never get to the hospital,” she wailed silently, “I can't! 1 can’t!” People in cars that passed her looked at her curiously but she hailed no one until she was com. pelled to stop for traffic where an officer was on duty. She motioned to him when he looked at her and he saw her slump the next instant as thongh she were fainting. ut when he reached the side ef the car.she was fully con- scious, * “There's been an accident,” she gasped. “Please help me get this girl to the hospital. I can't drive any farther!” Her breath died in a choking sob and her head dropped on the arm she flung over the wheel. The officer took one look at the girl who had been hurt and whirled to commandeer a driver. He blew his whistle to stop a taxicab that was passing and called to the chauf- {cur to pull up to the curb. The man had a bad moment of wondering what traffic law he had violated but the officer hurried over and eased his mind in short order. “Get that injured girl ont of that car over there and take her to the hospital without delay,” he directed. “The Good Shepherd. And leave your number,” He turned back to Helen, grimly. (To Be Continued) Town Observes 25th Anniversary of Birth Sherwood, N. D., Oct. 3.—Sherwood | is observing its 25th birthday.
